2018 HONDA CR-V Complaints

I WAS GOING ABOUT 25 MILES PER HOUR AT ABOUT 6:00 PM ON 10/21/2019 IN MY 2018 HONDA CRV EXL IN PITTSBURGH, PA. WHEN THE CAR'S AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM KICKED IN AND SLAMMED ON MY BREAKS ABRUPTLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AT ALL. IT WAS A VERY CLEAR DAY, NO RAIN, VERY WELL PAVED, MAINTAINED, AND MARKED 2 LANE CITY STREET. THERE WERE ABSOLUTELY NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME OR COMING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION. THIS CAME OUT OF NO WHERE AND I WAS SHOCKED AND CONFUSED AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED. I OWN 3 CRVS!!! I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED HONDAS AND NOW I'M FEARFUL OF THEM. I'M AFRAID TO LET MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER DRIVE IT. THANK GOD I WAS ONLY GOING 25 MILES PER HOUR AND NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME ! PLEASE HONDA! THIS IS REAL!!!! THIS IS DANGEROUS!! FIX THIS PROBLEM!!! OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!

I WAS DRIVING MY 2018 HONDA CRV ON A CITY STREET BETWEEN 25 AND 30 MPH WHEN THE BRAKES SUDDENLY APPLIED THEMSELVES AND THE CAR JERKED FORWARD VERY HARD. MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCLERATOR.THERE WAS NO CAR, PEDESTRIAN OF OBJECT IN FRONT OF MY CAR NOR BEHIND MY CAR. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR, NO RAIN FOR SEVERAL DAYS.I THINK IT WAS THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM. I CALLED THE DEALER AS SOON AS I GOT HOME. THEY ARE CLOSED. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

I BOUGHT CAR USED FROM GM DEALERSHIP 3/16/19, WASN'T AWARE OF PROBLEM UNTIL FIRST SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE.GAS MIXING IN WITH OIL CAUSING OIL LEVEL TO RISE SIGNIFICANTLY OVER SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, ABOUT A QUART HIGH WITH AROUND 2,000 MILES DRIVEN,MOSTLY HIGHWAY. HONDA SERVICE HAD ME BRING IN VEHICLE AFTER OIL CHANGE TO CHECK LEVEL, THEN AGAIN AFTER 1,000 MILES TO RECHECK. BROUGHT IN IN AFTER ABOUT 1700 MILES AND OIL WAS UP ABOUT A QUART ACCORDING TO SERVICE MANAGER. HONDA DEALER PERFORMED SOFTWARE "FIX" TO ALLEVIATE PROBLEM, BUT AFTER 1,500 MILES, OIL LEVEL UP SIGNIFICANTLY AGAIN. DEALER CONTENDS HONDA DOESN'T HAVE PROTOCOLS IN PLACE TO TAKE CARE OF ISSUE YET. CAR IN HONDA DEALERSHIP TODAY AGAIN FOR ASSESSMENT, THIRD OIL CHANGE IN 2 MONTHS. DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE CARS PERFORMANCE SINCE I BOUGHT USED AND NEVER HAD NORMAL BASELINE TO COMPARE TO.

TRAVELING 45 MPH ON SECONDARY ROAD AND CAR SUDDENLY HIT BRAKE MODE FOR NO REASON. NO OTHER TRAFFIC ON ROAD. VEHICLE SKIDDED AND THREW EVERYTHING IN VEHICLE TO FLOOR INCLUDING PET. WHIPPED NECK VERY HARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THERE WAS A BEEPING NOISE COMING FROM THE SCREEN AND THE SCREEN WENT BLANK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION HONDA FREMONT (5780 CUSHING PKWY, FREMONT, CA 94538, (510) 224-4801), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS A SOFTWARE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,063.

THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON ON MY 2018 CRV BROKE OFF AS I WAS SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO PARK. I WAS PARKED AT THE TIME, HOWEVER, ONCE IT FALLS OUT THE ONLY WAY TO SHIFT GEARS AGAIN IS TO SHOVE IT BACK IN PLACE. IT DANGLES AND DOESN'T STAY SITUATED IN THE GEAR SHIFT AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T GO BACK IN EASILY. THIS IS UNSAFE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED WITH A BETTER SOLUTION THAN REPLACING THE BUTTON WITH THE SAME BUTTON.

THE ENGINE OIL KEEPS INCREASING IN VOLUME CAUSING ME TO DRAIN ABOUT 1/2 QT ABOUT EVERY 1000-1500 MILES. IF YOU DO NOT KEEP A CHECK ON THIS IT WILL DEGRADE OR CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE. I LIVE IN GEORGIA WHICH HAS A MILD CLIMATE.

STARTED VEHICLE WHILE PARKED IN PARKING LOT TO DRIVE HOME, AND ALL VEHICLE ASSIST AND OTHER WARNING SYSTEMS WENT OFF, ALSO RECEIVED WARNING ALL SYSTEMS UNABLE TO INITIALIZE. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. DEALER REPLACED STEERING ANGLE SENSOR.

I HAD THE OIL CHANGED TODAY AND THE MECHANIC SAID I HAD GAS MIXED IN WITH THE OIL. HE SAID THIS COULD CAUSE ENGINE PROBLEMS AND STALLING. I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD LADY, AND I DON'T WANT TO GET STRANDED.

WHEN DRIVING, THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM (AUTO BRAKING) WILL SLAM ON THE BRAKES WHEN THERE IS NO THREAT. I MAY BE CRUISING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH NO VEHICLES AROUND AND SUDDENLY THE CAR IS BRAKING HARD.
