2005 HONDA CR-V Complaints

Y 2005 CRV SE driver window stops after rolling halfway up. I have to press window button a 2nd time. The driver window will roll down on it's own. Some 2005-2007 crV were recalled because this problem can start a fire.

Slowed down to turn left into a driveway. As I turned, the car accelerated and the engine RPM crossed 5000. Had the brakes depressed but the vehicle accelerated and crashed into the garage door. The problem has not been confirmed by a dealer or an independent service center. The smog check was performed at a test center less than a month ago and passed. Engine light came on intermittently a couple times between the smog test and the day of the crash.

MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR MALFUNCTIONED; IT REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. I THEN RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION SEVERAL MONTHS LATER REGARDING THE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH REPLACEMENT - I BELIEVE MY MASTER WINDOW MOTOR MALFUNCTION IS RELATED TO THIS RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED DRIVER'S SIDE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH FAILED TO FUNCTION AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER BRYAN HONDA (4104 RAEFORD RD, FAYETTEVILLE, NC 28304, (910) 483-1234) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE DRIVER'S SIDE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V768000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY) BUT CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 96,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAG ERRONEOUSLY DEPLOYED. DURING THE DEPLOYMENT, THERE WAS NO IMPACT TO THE VEHICLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,000.

THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW WONT GO DOWN INTERMITTENTLY WHICH I CONSIDER A DANGER AS WE HAVE A BRIDGE THAT CARS HAVE BEEN SHOVED OFF INTO THE WATER AND IT SCARES ME THAT IT COULD HAPPEN TO ME AND I WOULD NEED THAT WINDOW TO GO DOWN SO I CAN ESCAPE BEFORE THAT WINDOW FAILS OR THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILS. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK IT MULTIPLE TIMES BUT OF COURSE IT WONT DO IT WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE CAR IS ALMOST ALWAYS STATIONARY WHEN THE WINDOW WONT GO DOWN. IT HAPPENS AT THE ATM AND OTHER DRIVE THRUS. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 20V768 BUT SO FAR MY CAR ISN'T LISTED EVEN THOUGH I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS.

HAVE LOST POWER TO BOTH LOW BEAM LIGHTS CONSECUTIVELY AND RANDOMLY EVERY MONTH OVER THE PAST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE REPLACED HEADLIGHTS MULTIPLE TIMES AND LOST LOW BEAMS ESPECIALLY ON DRIVERS SIDE DURING COMMUTE AT NIGHT ON THE FREEWAY.

BOUGHT VEHICLE IN AUGUST, USED WITH 136,000 MILES. THE FIRST WEEK, THE A/C COMPRESSOR WENT OUT. THE 2ND WEEK, THE CONDENSER. 2 WEEKS LATER THE CAR STALLED OUT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VSA AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. WAS ABLE TO GET IT RESTARTED AND IT WAS THROWING 4 CODES. P1009 61-1 62-1 83-1. TOOK IT IN UNDER DEALER WARRANTY. THE CHANGED THE O2 SENSORS AND GAVE IT BACK. 2 WEEKS LATER, SAME THING ONLY NOW IT WAS BURNING OIL AND GAS AND RUNNING REALLY RICH. THE OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS EVEN. THEY DID A WHOLE ENGINE SWAP AND A NEW STARTER, AMONG OTHER THINGS. AND 2 WEEKS LATER IT STALLED OUT AGAIN. AND THE CRANK SHAFT AND VTEC SOLENOID NEEDED REPLACED. AS WELL AS THE STARTER. 9 TIMES I'VE HAD IT AND NOW AFTER THE SAME BURNING THROUGH OIL AND GAS ISSUES IT'S STARTED SMOKING AND MAKING A GRINDING SOUND WHILE IDLING.

THE BULBS IN MY LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS CONTINUALLY BURN OUT WHILE IN MOTION, USUALLY ON A RURAL HIGHWAY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING, ESPECIALLY ON DARK COUNTRY ROADS. TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA, I AM HAVING TO REPLACE THE BULBS 3-4 TIMES PER YEAR ON EACH HEADLIGHT. FROM A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH, I CAN SEE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY, MANY HONDA CRV OWNERS. IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE FOR THE 2002-2004 MODELS (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V136000) - WILL YOU PLEASE EXPAND THIS RECALL TO INCLUDE THE 2005? IF BOTH HEADLIGHTS GO DARK AT THE SAME TIME, IT WILL PROBABLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WITH THIS HAPPENING SO OFTEN ON THE 2005, THE LIKELIHOOD OF AN ACCIDENT INCREASES. PLEASE HELP. (THE LATEST DATE OF 12/1/2020 WHEN MY LIGHT BURNED OUT IS IN THE FIELD BELOW, BUT IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES THIS YEAR.)
