2015 HONDA CR-V Complaints

WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 30 DEGREES, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID DOES NOT DISCHARGE TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID RESORVIOR IS CLOSE TO THE BUMPBER AND THEREFORE IT FREEZES. DRIVING IN SNOW CONDITION IS EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS AS YOU CAN NOT CLEAN THE MUDDY WINDSHIELD. IT'S MATTER OF TIME WHEN HUMANS WILL START TO GET HURT DUE TO THIS FLAW. HONDA NEEDS TO OWN THE ISSUE AND COME UP WITH SOLUTION. THE WIPER FLUID WILL START TO WORK AFTER AT LEAST 1/2 HOUR OF DRIVING. THE ONLY EXPLANATION I GOT FROM THE DEALER THAT THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED ONCE THE ENGINE WARMS UP, WHICH IS NOT A FACT AS IN MY EXPERIENCE THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO ON FOR 1/2 HR OR MORE.

EXCESSIVE VIBRATION WHILE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE MODE AND IS AT A STOP USING THE FOOT BRAKES. PLACING VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL LESSENS THE VIBRATION. IT IS NOTICED DURING REGULAR DRIVING WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THE PROBLEM IS CONSTANT AND HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015. *TR

RABBITS HAVE EATEN THE POWER STEERING 3 TIMES IN 2 MONTHS. THEY LOVE THE PEPPER TAPE THEY ARE WRAPPING IT WITH TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MY HUSBAND AND I HAD TO FORCE A RABBIT OUT OF IT, RABBIT WAS DETERMINED TO TAKE THE WIRES WITH IT. HONDA WON'T GIVE ME A PERMANENT FIX. CANT BELIEVE THEY ARE ALLOWED TO USE FOOD PRODUCTS ON VEHICLES. 1ST 2 TIMES VEHICLE WAS FOUND DISABLED, 3RD TIME FOUND THE RABBIT IN IT, STARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULDN'T COME OUT, HAD TO HIT IT WITH A STICK IT DID GET OUT, BUT THEN IT CAME RIGHT BACK, SO I GOT MY HUSBAND AND HE AND I HAD TO FORCE IT OUT. THE CAR WAS DISABLED AGAIN, I COULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING WHILE THIS CRITTER DID THIS AND THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SAFE AT ALL. AT THIS POINT I HAVE NO FAITH IN THE NEW VEHICLES WITH FOOD PRODUCTS USED IN THEM. CAR WAS PARKED IN CARPORT. MY LAST RESORT TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IS TO USE COYOTE URINE TO KEEP THEM AWAY. JUST NOT RIGHT.

THE CAR IS SHAKING/VIBRATING WHEN ON DRIVE MODE WHILE YOU ARE ON STOP STEPPING ON THE BRAKE, CAR ALSO SHAKES/VIBRATES DURING ACCELERATION FROM A COMPLETE STOP. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN CITY STREETS, HOPEFULLY THE PROBLEM WILL NOT ARISE ON THE FREEWAY. ALREADY WENT TWICE TO THE DEALER DCH GARDENA HONDA IN GARDENA CALIFORNIA, WAS NOT ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, THEY SAY THAT THAT'S THE NORMAL FOR THE ENGINE, STAFF ALSO SAID THAT GO COMPLAIN TO AMERICAN HONDA, INSTEAD OF FIXING WHAT THEY SOLD. THE MOST CONCERN IS MY WIFE HAS AN ACCIDENT WHEN SHE PANIC DURING VIBRATION, IT WAS A MINOR ACCIDENT, ARE WE WAITING TO HAPPEN THIS TO ANYBODY DRIVING HONDA CT-V 2015 MODEL? IT WILL BE MORE DANGEROUS IF THIS FIXABLE PROBLEM WILL HAPPENED IN THE FREEWAY. *TR

ENGINE ACCELERATES AUTOMATICALLY WHILE LEG ON BRAKE, WHICH HAPPENED AT STOP LIGHT AND THEN AT HOME WHILE PARKING.

VIBRATION: IN DECEMBER OF 2014, WE PURCHASED A BRAND NEW HONDA CRV 2015 MODEL FROM TOM WOOD HONDA IN ANDERSON, INDIANA. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, (AT AROUND 5,000 MILES DRIVEN ON THE VEHICLE), WE NOTICED THAT; THE VEHICLE VIBRATED WHEN STOPPED (SAY AT A STOP LIGHT) WHEN THE CAR WAS IN 'DRIVE'. THE VIBRATION WAS NOT DETECTED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND IN 'PARK'. THE VIBRATION AT THIS TIME WAS SLIGHT AND ONLY A LITTLE DISTURBING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PENSKE HONDA (ON THE NORTH SIDE OF INDIANAPOLIS) AT AROUND 28,000 MILES OR SO, WHERE A '16-053 CRV UPDATE' WAS APPLIED. THE VIBRATION PROBLEM WAS MADE MUCH WORSE, NOT BETTER. IMMEDIATELY AFTER DRIVING THE CAR OFF OF PENSKE'S LOT, IT VIBRATED SO BADLY THAT IT WAS EXTREMELY DISTURBING. FOLLOW A FEW FRUSTRATING CONVERSATIONS WITH PENSKE HONDA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FISHER'S HONDA. FISHER'S HONDA PERFORMED UPDATE 15-046 FOR VIBRATION AT IDLE, WHICH AMELIORATED THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE STILL VIBRATES QUITE NOTICEABLY WHEN ENGAGED IN DRIVE AND STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT FOR EXAMPLE. THE IDLE SPEED DROPS TO AROUND 550 RPM WHEN STOPPED AND IN DRIVE. THE ENTIRE CAR SHAKES. THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES IN THE DRIVER'S HANDS. IN MY OPINION, NO ONE WOULD BUY A NEW OR EVEN USED CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM. I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T. WE TOOK THE 2015 HONDA CRV TO TOM WOOD HONDA. ONE OF THEIR TOP TECHNICIANS DROVE THE CAR WITH US IN IT. HE ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM, BUT STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING MORE HE COULD DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAN WHAT HAD ALREADY BEEN DONE, AND THAT THE PROBLEM HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ENGINE AND DRIVE TRAIN PAIRING. SINCE THAT TIME, THE VIBRATION PHENOMENON WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED AND ENGAGED IN DRIVE HAS WORSENED. IN ADDITION, THE CAR VIBRATES WHEN DRIVING THE CAR AT 35 TO 45 MILES PER HOUR AND THE RPMS ARE AROUND 1,100 RPM OR SO. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND VIBRATED ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY FOR THE CONDITION. THE DEALER TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE NEWLY DESIGNED ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION/POWER TRAIN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CONDITION CONTINUED TO PROGRESS WITH NO SOLUTION TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED NO PERMANENT REMEDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 800. SJ

WHILE DRIVING AT 80 MPH ON A HIGHWAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED AND THE VEHICLE DECREASED IN SPEED TO 50 MPH ON ITS OWN, ALTHOUGH I NEVER REMOVED PRESSURE FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO STALL AND PULL BACK AS IF IT WERE GOING TO DIE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND WHEN I DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND DID NOT INCREASE SPEED. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY, APPLIED THE BRAKES, AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, BUT WHEN I DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ONCE THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 20 MPH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON THE ENTIRE TIME. I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS GIVING MISFIRE CODES AND THEY WANT TO KEEP IT OVERNIGHT TO RUN TESTS ON IT. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THAT THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE GONE INTO "LIMP" MODE, WHAT THAT IS. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY AT 80 MPH. *TR
