2006 HONDA CR-V Complaints

THE LOW BEAMS ON MY HONDA HAVE BEEN REPLACED ABOUT 11 TIMES SINCE LAST SUMMER. IT STARTER WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE- SO NOW, IT GOES PASSENGER, DRIVER, PASSENGER, ETC. I CHANGED THE WHITE THINGS THAT HOLD THE BULBS AND REPLACED BOTH BULBS (AGAIN!) NOW NEITHER LOW BEAMS WORK! I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON AND I LIVE IN A CITY- THIS DOES NOT MAKE OTHER DRIVERS VERY HAPPY. *TR

STEERING LOCKED UP AND DRIVER LOST ABILITY TO STEER. VEHICLE MOVED TO LEFT. DRIVER TRIED TO BRAKE BUT BRAKES FAILED. WITNESSES DESCRIBED VEHICLE LURCHING TO LEFT AND SEEING BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON BUT VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN. CAR HIT A STREET LAMP AND BOUNCED TO THE RIGHT. SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. FRONT LEFT WHEEL FELL OFF THE CAR. DRIVER SUSTAINED A MILD CONCUSSION. NOTE THAT HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR SOME 2006 CR-V'S RELATED TO SUSPENSION WHICH COULD CAUSE LOSS OF STEERING (HONDA RECALL 12-020). THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BUT THE INCIDENT SEEMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE RECALL ISSUE. *JS
