2006 HONDA CR-V Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ENGINE RPMS INCREASED EXCESSIVELY AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE REPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

REPEATEDLY THE HEADLIGHT BULBS BLOW OUT. PURCHASED CAR USED 10/2012, REPLACED BULB 12/2012, AGAIN 6/2013 AND NOW ANOTHER ONE BLOWN 10/2013. *TR

WIRING HARNESS ON PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS BREAKING LEADING TO MARKER LIGHT, TURN SIGNAL AND HEADLAMP FAILURE. THE WIRES ARE BREAKING AT THE POINT WHERE THEY LEAVE THE WIRE SLEEVE IN THE HARNESS. IN THIS LOCATION, THE CONDUCTORS ARE PROTECTED FROM STRESS ONLY BY HEAT SHRINK TUBING AND THE WIRE INSULATION. STRESS FROM THE WEIGHT OF THE RISING WIRE HARNESS AND TRANSFERRED STRAIN FROM THE BACK OF THE LAMP CONNECTORS IS HIGHEST AT THIS POINT. MELTING OF THE WIRE INSULATION AND HEAT SHRINK TUBING WAS FOUND. *TR

ON A 200 MILE TRIP THE AIR CONDITIONER/ COMPRESSOR LOCKED UP. I HAD JUST COMPLETED THE 100,000 MILE SCHEDULED SERVICE WHICH INCLUDED THE DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BACK HOME AS LONG AS I DIDN'T ATTEMPT TO USE THE A/C OR DEFROSTER. OBVIOUSLY HONDA HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPRESSORS THEY ARE USING IN THERE VEHICLES. HOPEFULLY DOT WILL INVESTIGATE THE FAULTY EQUIPMENT. MY SISTER IN LAW HAS ALSO REPLACED TWO COMPRESSORS IN HER 2006 HONDA CRV AT LOWER MILEAGE INTERVALS. NO MORE HONDAS FOR ME! *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE, FALLING IN FIELD OF VISION, CAUSING AN OBSTRUCTION OF VISIBILITY. *TR

AIR LEAKS FROM THE RIM OF WHEELS (STEEL - AT WELD POINTS?). AT LEAST TWO SO FAR. HONDA DEALERSHIP SAYS OUT OF WARRANTY, OUT OF LUCK. 2006 HONDA CRV. *TR

MY ANTI LOCK BRAKES HAVE STOPPED WORKING, AND THE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE A 2006 CRV WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED. HONDA TOLD ME IT IS OVER 2000 TO FIX AND IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND WILL NOT BE RECALLED. THEY SUGGESTED THAT IT ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE, AND THAT I DON'T NEED TO GET IT FIXED. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED, SINCE MY BRAKES WILL NOT WORK IN SNOW, ICE OR RAIN AND I LIVE IN WISCONSIN (WHERE THE WEATHER WILL LOCK MY BRAKES UP) THANK YOU

I HAVE REPLACED THE LOW BEAM BULBS 4 TIMES THE PAST 2 YEARS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND 2 TIMES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS TIME THE DRIVERS SIDE WENT OUT AND AFTER TRYING 2 NEW BULBS THEY STILL WILL NOT ILLUMINATE. I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE DASH LIGHT NOT COMING ON. THE VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED FOR A CHECK IN 4 DAYS. OVER THE LIFE OF THIS CAR THE BULBS SEEM TO LAST A VERY SHORT TIME. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT STOPPED ILLUMINATING INTERMITTENTLY AND THE PASSENGER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE AT ALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. *TR
