2012 HONDA CR-V Complaints

POWER STEERING FAILED WHILE IN MOTION ~25MPH ON A CITY STREET. INDICATOR LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY FLASHED 2-3 TIMES AFTER POWER STEERING WAS LOST. COLLISION WAS NARROWLY AVOIDED.

MY WIFE PULLED HER 2012 HONDA CR-V INTO A RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY, PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, LEAVING THE ENGINE RUNNING. SHE EXITED THE CAR BRIEFLY THEN RETURNED, OPENING THE DOOR TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION. STANDING OUTSIDE THE CAR BUT INSIDE THE OPEN DOOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, SHE REACHED IN AND SWITCHED OFF THE IGNITION. THE CAR STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARD, KNOCKING HER TO THE GROUND, AND DRAGGING HER ABOUT 30 FEET DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND ACROSS THE STREET. CAR CAME TO A STOP WHEN IT HIT THE CURB ACROSS THE STREET. A FIREMAN WHO ARRIVED FIRST ON THE SCENE VERIFIED THE CAR WAS STILL IN PARK. WIFE WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE AND SUFFERED A BROKEN SHOULDER, SEVERE ROAD RASH INJURIES TO HER TORSO, AND OTHER BRUISES. THE CR-V DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAS DAMAGE, NOT BEING ABLE TO CLOSE PROPERLY, AND HAS A PIECE OF BLACK PLASTIC MOLDING TORN AWAY FROM THE LOWER SECTION OF THE FRAME.

COLD START -MAKE METAL TO METAL GRINDING SOUND. REPLACED STARTER WITH NO REMEDY.

VEHICLE FAILED TO START ONCE IN FIRST YEAR GRADUALLY INCREASED TO 1 WEEKLY. DEALER CHECK COULD FIND 0 TWICE-CAN'T FIND,CAN'T FIX. NOW W/60400 MI MUST JUMP FOR ANY START SINCE DEALER TESTED IT THIS WEEK. DLR WANTS TO DO FULL DIAGNOSTIC 2ND TIME AT MY EXPENSE. WASTE OF TIME GOING NOWHERE. HONDA INC SAYS WORK W/ DEALER WHICH SAYS CAN'T FIND PROBLEM AND IT'S YOUR PROBLEM. I CAN'T TRADE IT LIKE IT IS. HAVE HAD 9 NEW ACCORDS SINCE 1978 W/ NO MAJOR PROBLEMS. ESTABLISHED LOYALTY TO HONDA NOT CONSIDERED.IN MY CASE. DISAPPOINTED!

THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SPEED ARE VERY INADEQUATE. WHEN SET TO THE FASTEST SPEED THE WIPERS DON'T WORK WELL. THE WIPERS TEND TO MOVE FASTER THE FASTER YOU ARE DRIVING. SITTING STILL WIPERS DON'T MOVE. WHEN IT IS RAINING HARD AND FAST THE WIPERS DO SUCH A POOR JOB IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE.

I HAVE A 2012 HONDA CRV - VIN: [XXX], WITH JUST A FEW MILES OVER 40,000 MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR SEVERAL DAYS. TODAY, I TOOK IT TO HAVE THE DIAGNOSTIC RAN ON IT. THE FOLLOWING ERROR CODES CAME UP: 71-21: "SHORT IN THE PASSENGERS FRONT AIRBAG OFF SWITCH" 43-22: "NO SIGNAL FROM THE LEFT SIDE IMPACT SENSOR (FIRST)" B2-11: "NO SIGNAL FROM THE REAR SAFING SENSOR" ALTHOUGH, THERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ANY RECALLS, IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL OF MY HONDA CRV, THERE OBVIOUSLY ARE ISSUES WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. WHAT STEPS DO I NEED TO TAKE TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER? I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY KIND OF RECALLS, NOR HAVE I BEEN ABLE TO FIND RESULTS, WHEN SEARCHING FOR RECALLS. PLEASE ADVISE AT YOUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. UNSURE WHAT IT MEANS, BUT AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS I MAY HAVE A MALFUNCTION? I DO NOT SEE ANY RECALLS FOR THE 2012 HONDA CRV THOUGH. SHOULD I REPORT THIS TO MY DEALER AND/OR ARE THERE ANY RECALLS, THAT I AM NOT AWARE OF?

THE GEAR SHIFT ALLOWS THE CAR TO BE SHIFTED FROM DRIVE MODE TO NEUTRAL OR "2" WITHOUT PRESSING THE GEAR RELEASE BUTTON. THIS CREATED A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN DRIVING AND REMOVING A BOTTLED BEVERAGE AND THE GEAR SHIFT WAS "BUMPED" WHILE DRIVING PUSHING THE HANDLE UP TO THE NEUTRAL POSITION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT HIGH SPEEDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE STEERING WHEEL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE STABILITY ACTUATOR (VSA) FAILED. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER STATED THERE WAS NO FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

EACH TIME I START AN ENGINE WHEN IT STILL COLD IT HAS A RATTLE LOUDY NOISE. WHEN HONDA IS GOING TO RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE?
