2024 HONDA CR-V Complaints

Driver side mirror got cracked itself . Car was parked in driveway and there was no crack in mirror until previous night. 2 days ago there was snow and temperature was around 30f. This seems to be safely hazard considering it’s now distracting while driving .

The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was inoperable. The contact stated that the steering wheel had seized stuck and failed to function as intended. Additionally, the contact stated that it was very difficult to control the steering wheel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed steering assembly and that the steering rack assembly needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that the steering rack assembly was on backorder until April 2024. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 3,735.

The steering is real jerky and hard to drive. The dealer said on 11/13 that it was unsafe to drive. Part is on back order. Now they say it might be April.

The steering wheel sticks and becomes stiff intermittently at various speeds. It seems to happen significantly less in cold temperatures (under 35°f). When performing a turn or slight correction, more bodily force is required to make the move which has resulted in exaggerated moves/corrections. This issue was presented to the dealership and their technician allegedly drove my vehicle and another of the same year/model and was unable to recreate the issue.

Horn is not adequate as a warning mechanism for safety. A large number of owners are complaining about this issue. Honda knows the horn is inadequate but instead of providing a suitable horn for the vehicle they are selling an add on horn for customers to purchase through the parts department. The horn provided with the vehicle should be of sufficient volume to serve as a safety device. This is not acceptable.

Day #4 of ownership of brand new 2024 Honda CR-V Sport Touring, passenger side mirror cracked on a cold morning, approximately 18 degrees. Suspect heating element was too hot and the transition from cold to hot too rapidly caused a vertical crack from top to bottom that impairs vision. Called the dealer, part is on back order and they have no clue when it'll come in. Would not commit to tell me if it was under warranty or not.

Our complaint is in regards to the factory horn Honda is installing on the current generation of CR-Vs. After purchase one week ago of our 2024 model year, we noticed the horn was very faint. Believing it to be a defect, we researched online and found that it is as designed. The horn is so poor that dealers are selling "upgrade kits" and posting online videos on how to install. The standard horn comes as a single high-tone that is insufficient. These kits include a second low-tone horn and a y-splitter cable that will hook into the factory single high-tone horn. Once the low tone is installed, the horn sounds and functions as any vehicle should be expected to function. But otherwise, the factory single high-tone is inadequate and not safe. I have tested this by having my spouse behind me on the roadway in clear weather at night and stopped at a red light. The horn is very faint and not adequate enough to provide proper warning if needed. If I was not expecting the horn test from my spouse, I would not have thought it was a vehicle horn at all. Now consider adding in poor weather and driving at 70mph, the horn would do nothing to warn another driver from an improper lane change to avoid a collision. With over 10 years of law enforcement and traffic-related experience, I am asking that this matter be investigated and require Honda to issue a recall to bring their horns up to standard by providing the fix to owners at no charge to add the low-tone second horn so that the vehicle will sound a warning at a volume and depth as needed in everyday usage. Buyers should not have to pay to upgrade this most basic of safety equipment and does not provide good optics for Honda to cut costs in this way and increase margin for dealers as an aftermarket kit.

We are having issues with our new CRV hybrid. We hear clicking sound whenever we are on uphill curvy road. Another issue is the driver’s side mirror appears distorted/blurry.

Sticky steering developed after 3500 miles. When making minor adjustments, extra resistance was felt causing over adjustment sometimes.

Best description: momentary increased steering effort. Similar to issues reported with the 2023 Civic and CR-V. Steering seems to drift/tug to one side or the other, then when correcting, it will over-correct. Dealership determined that the EPS rack is defective. Parts are on back order with unknown ETA.
