2016 HONDA CR-V Complaints

MY 2016 HONDA CR-V RECENTLY GOT 21 MPG ON A 300+ HIGHWAY MILE TRIP. FROM DAY 1, THE ADVERTISED MILEAGE OF 32 MPG HAS NEVER BEEN REACHED. IT HAS STEADILY DECLINED TILL I AM GETTING 21 MPG. I RECENTLY READ AN ARTICLE WHERE HONDA ADMITTED THAT VEHICLES PRODUCED IN THE YEARS 2016-2019 CR-V'S WERE EXPERIENCING SIGNIFICANT MPG DECLINES DUE TO A DEFECT THAT WAS ALLOWING OIL TO MIX WITH GAS. THIS DEFECT AFFECTED AUTOS IN COLD CLIMATES, INCLUDING NEBRASKA WHERE I LIVE. THIS ARTICLE EXPLAINED THAT HONDA WAS NOT REGARDING THEM AS RECALLS YET, BUT THAT THEY WERE BEING SENT BACK TO THE FACTORY FOR REPAIRS. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY PLAYED DUMB, SUGGESTING THAT I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER ON MY DIME. I WANT ANSWERS, AND NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS PERFORMING A ROUTINE OIL CHECK, HE FOUND FUEL MIXED IN THE OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LARRY H. MILLER HONDA MURRAY (5808 STATE ST, MURRAY, UT 84107, (801) 590-0572) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO FAILURE WAS FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

EXCESSIVE OIL (NO OIL LEAK) ENGINE OIL DISAPPEARED 2 QUARTS AFTER ONLY 3000 MILES FROM LAST OIL CHANGE. NO TOWING, RACING, MOUNTAINS, ETC. CONTACTED HONDA, THEY SAY ACCORDING TO HONDA POLICY ONLY HONDA VEHICLES THAT CONSUMPT 1 QTR OIL PER 1000 MILE ARE CONSIDER ABNORMAL. SINCE MY CR-V CONSUMPT ABOUT 1 QTR PER 1500 MILE, HONDA SAY IT IS NORMAL AND WILL NOT HONORING THEIR WARRANTY.

WHEN WE WERE REVERSING THE CAR BRAKES STOPPED RESPONDING. THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN OFF AND IT KEPT ROLLING BACKWARDS SO WE HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKES. WE PUT IT INTO DRIVE AND THE CAR STILL ROLLED BACKWARDS AND THE BRAKES WOULDN'T RESPOND.

ELECTRONIC TRUNK SYSTEM/HATCH BACK DOOR SWITCH DOES NOT OPERATE IN COLD CONDITIONS . HONDA DEALER IS REQUIRED TO OPEN HATCH BACK TO GAIN ENTRY. THERE IS NO WAY FOR A CONSUMER TO MANUALLY OPEN HATCH BACK DOOR. EXPENSIVE REPAIR OF $300.00+. PART NUMBER 74810-T0A-A02 .

WHILE BRAKING CAR ACCELARATED AND ENDED WITH HITTING A TREE.. EXTENSIVE DAMAGE WAS DONE TO FRONT END. HAD TO BE TOWED AND ESTIMATE FOR DAMAGES WELL OVER $7000. ALL I HAVE IS A QUICK PIC WITH MY PHONE SO I CAN TX TO YOU IF YOU NEED..

BACK HATCH- EVERY YEAR IN FEB - WHEN TEMPS DROP TO SINGLE DIGITS THE BACK HATCH ON THE CRV WILL NOT WORK. CONSIDERING THERE IS NO INTERNALK RELEASE- THIS IS AN ISSUE IF ACCESS IS NEEDED. THE CAR HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN EACH YEAR TO A HONDA DEALER BUT IT DOESNT SEEM TO GET FIXED. THE ISSUE IS ALSO PREVELENT ON THE WEB GOING BACK TO 2012 ON THIS VEHICLE MODEL. MOST RECENT OCCURANCE LISTED BELOW-

NOXIOUS FUEL/ OIL FUMES IN CABIN CAUSING HEADACHES AND LIGHTHEADEDNESS. ALSO HEATER WILL NOT BLOW HOT AIR. HONDA REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM. INSTEAD BLAMING IT ON SHORT RANGE DRIVING AND COLD WEATHER ENVIRONMENT. HONDA AMERICA INSISTS THAT FUEL IN GAS IS NORMAL DESPITE EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY. ACCORDING TO HONDA, THIS (OUR CRV) WAS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAD A COMPLAINT. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL. WE HAVE RESORTED TO DRIVING OUR 2003 MODEL VEHICLE AND PARKING THIS NEWER CRV WHICH ONLY HAS 12000 MILES BUT HAS BEEN TO DEALER FOR THESE CONCERNS 4 DIFFERENT TIMES FOR FUMES AND 2 TIMES FOR HEATER.

RATTLING NOISE IN THE RIGHT SIDE/ BEHIND THE DASH BOARD WHEN THE A/C AND HEATER IS ON. IN ADDITION, THE A/C AND HEATER OFTEN GO OFF AND ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
