2024 HONDA CR-V Complaints

Side view mirror cracked without any impact. I started backing up, looked away and when I looked back the mirror was cracked. Nothing hit it or was even near it.

Newer CRV’s windshield wash fluid is delivered through a rubber hose /nozzle that ends on the metal wiper arm, and is exposed to extreme cold temperatures. Other vehicles hoses terminate in the hood, where they are kept warm by the heat radiating from the engine. We just drove cross country, experiencing below zero temps, on highways with heavy traffic and precipitation, with often frozen lines, resulting in really constant, poor visibility., The fluid being used is rated for -30, yet the lines still froze up.

This isn't about a specific incident. For about four weeks, I've been having an issue with the steering on my 2024 Honda CRV Hybrid. When I get up to speed on interstates, the steering becomes sticky or clunky. After the car goes straight for a half mile or so, it will resist minor adjustments in steering. It's most pronounced when I try to adjust the steering wheel to the right. The steering is not smooth like I experienced with each of my other cars. I've turned off the lane change warning system, to no avail. It seems that I have to drive the car for awhile before this problem surfaces. Right now, the problem is just annoying. But I'm concerned that if it get worse, it might become dangerous.

At highway speeds, with Lane Keeping Assistance OFF, steering wheel resists slight changes in direction/adjustment.

The vehicle only has 6000 miles on it and suddenly for apparently no reason, the steering seems "sticky" while traveling on a straight path. Larger steering movements, such as turning left or right seems fine. It only "sticks" while traveling straight.

The supposedly “LED Headlights on this vehicle is very dim and very unsafe to drive. I have contacted Honda of Marysville Wa state about the headlights inability to provide light on the roads but was ignored. We almost had an accident because the headlights are so dim we almost hit another vehicle. This needs to be addressed by honda before something bad happens.

We bought this 2024 CRV EXL just a few months ago and have less than 5000 miles. The steering catches and sticks at times. We have owned 5 new CRVS over the many years and this is NOT normal. Honda dealers want to say it’s “normal”. I am on a private Facebook 2023-2024 CRV site, and many have reported this issue. Some say it’s a steering rack. I don’t know but asking for your help as my wife doesn’t feel safe and we know it’s a manufactured issue. Please let us know [XXX] Kindly [XXX] and [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Steering becomes sticky feeling, requires extra effort to move the wheel, then moves in a jerky manner, not smooth. Becomes worse at highway speeds and after prolonged driving.

My CR-V Lane Keep Assist will pull my vehicle one way or the other jarringly violently, and will overcorrect itself the rest of the time. The result being that I have nearly totally stopped using the feature. Recently, though, I have noticed a sticking point just off of dead center when steering in either direction- at any speed. The worst part of this issue is that it causes turning to be unsmooth because the wheel doesn't turn smoothly. At any speed, I can notice the weighting of the steering wheel when I hit the (replicatible) sticking point- and then it is as if the vehicle "skips a few steering teeth" because it cause the wheel to turn a little more quickly as if to catch up to where I had intended to point the tires. This issue has persisted to the point that I googled to see if other owners were having this issue, and that's when I discovered that NHTSA had added the 2023 CR-V to an existing complaint involving Honda Civics with the same steering components. I wish to lodge my complaint in the hopes of making Honda and the NHTSA aware that this issue is also affecting 2024 CR-Vs. I am extra frustrated because I feel like my front suspension/steering components are clunking where that was not an issue over the early life of the vehicle. For reference, I have put 13000 miles on the vehicle since purchasing 07/27/2023.

Steering becomes stiff and sticky intermittently. Problem first occurred with approximately 3,700 miles on the vehicle. Initially the problem was only apparent on the interstate highway at speeds of approximately 70 mph and after about 30 minutes or more of continuous highway driving. The resistance felt on the steering wheel can be overridden, but the result is difficulty maintaining a straight path down the highway due to over corrections. I now have 4,200 miles on the vehicle and the problem is showing up at lower speeds of approximately 40 to 50 mph. Lane assist and lane departure are both off. I checked tire pressure and it was good (35psi front 32psi rear) There were no warning lamps or messages. When driving around town at lower speeds the steering works fine. I took the vehicle to the local dealership service department and a steering rack is on backorder due to arrive April 2024.
