2018 HONDA CR-V Complaints

For 7 days straight, during cold weather, the car dashboard would cycle through at least 7 indicators indicators reporting such as lane departure, tire pressure ABS, cruise control failure, emission system failures, posing a danger when showing up in the middle of trips on the highway. In other instances, the warnings start as soon as the engine starts, or within 1-2 minutes of starting the engine. The factory remote start feature does not work when the dashboard warnings cycle through, as well.

• The Incident: "The rear window shattered spontaneously while the vehicle was in motion. My wife was driving, I was in the passenger seat, and our two children were in the back seat." • The Risk: "The explosion of glass occurred inches away from my children's heads. This is a severe safety hazard caused by a known manufacturing defect in the rear defroster grid".

This vehicle had 55,000 miles serviced by the dealer only. While driving vehicle warning system started displaying multiple notifications of multiple system failures. When diagnosed the vehicle experienced a blown head gasket. I contacted the dealer and they told me that this was a common problem with the engines in Honda CRV 2017, 2018 and 2019. The Service department informed me on that particular day they had 3 CRVs of the above years, being repaired due to blown head gaskets. This is a safety issue and I can not believe there is not a recall? [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The power steering on my 2018 Honda CRV XE is sticky or sticks when I when I try to keep my CRV is the middle of the lane and/or change lanes a majority of the time on the freeway/highway. At times, the CRV will slides/drifts from one side to the other. The CRV is going in this week for an inspection / evaluation at a Honda dealership. There were no signs or warnings when I purchased the CRV from a private party. I will make the CRV for inspection.

Lights appeared on dash associated with braking/sensors. Lights included: ACC, Collision Mitigation, Fuel Emissions, Traction Control, Electric Parking Brake, Brake Hold System, TPMS, Road Departure Mitigation, EPS, VSA, Hill Start Assist. Not running any different than normal, just lights suddenly appeared. Ran codes & codes said ECM Failure & Fuel Too Rich.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH, several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact pulled into a gas station. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the turbocharger had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

"While driving my 2018 Honda CR-V (Mileage: 58,800), the vehicle experienced a sudden and total loss of power/stalling due to a fuel injector failure. This failure caused the vehicle to enter 'Limp Mode' on a high-speed roadway, creating an immediate risk of a rear-end collision as the vehicle could not maintain flow-of-traffic speeds. My Wife and I was just getting on the highway when this occurred. Research indicates this is a recurring manufacturing defect in the 1.5L Turbo engine (referenced in Honda TSB #22-002 and similar internal communications). This is a critical safety issue as the fuel system failure is unpredictable and occurs without prior warning, leaving the driver stranded in dangerous traffic conditions. Honda has not yet issued a safety recall for this VIN despite the widespread nature of the injector defects."

Steering pulls and clicks at highway speeds. Engine misfire due to faulty fuel injection issues.

This vehicle is haven issued with loss power at any moments not matter the speed can lost power at 25 miles per hour and can lost power at 55 miles per hour do to head gasket issue I contacted American honda they say they know about the issue because the turbo engine have high pressure issues they refuse to repair or get a solution for this even if more than 1,000 people have been complaining about the head gasket on the turbo engine vehicle with the problem from people the i know 2017 to 2022 honda crv and according to and civic and some few acura mdx

On October 2025 there was a mass incident in different areas of Queens NY in were airbags from Honda CRVs were stolen. The vehicle was sent to a body shop to have the airbag replaced but American Honda Motor Co., Inc does not have any available to distribute. We have reached out to them but there respond has been " We apologize for any inconvenince or delay this matter has caused you. Currently the part(s) ETA is to be determined." No dealer has extra parts and the part cant be found anywhere else. We are looking to get this resolved being that 3 months have now passed and there is no "ETA" of the part being available for costumers. It is not something that should be happening to a loyal costumer that has purchased a vehicle without having the option to get parts (as per American Honda they are not out of stock and they are manufacturing but they are just not available for distibution).In cases like this parts should be available to be replaced in cases of an emergency, let alone a safety part like an airbag.
