2005 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE BRIDGESTONE TIRE. *LD *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. TOLD BY HONDA DEALER THAT THIS IS DUE TO SEATBELT PART THAT IS FAULTY ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. IS THIS PART OF A RECALL? I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2017 AND I AM NOT SURE WHAT RECALLS HAVE BEEN MISSED.

ELECTRICAL FIRE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT, WIRING HARNESS MELTED AND CAUGHT FIRE, BATTERY MELTED. DRIVING ABOUT 35MPH, STARTED TO SMELL SMOKE AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE CUT OUT. ROLLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, CALLED FOR HELP AND NOTICED THE SMOKE GETTING WORSE AND THEN SEEN THE FLAMES. EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE WITH THE HELP OF BYSTANDERS AND RESIDENTS LIVING NEAR BY

I'VE OWN THIS VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS AND IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE EVER SINCE I OWN THIS VEHICLE. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO REPLACE THE LOW BEAM LIGHT BULBS ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THEY SEEM TO GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME TO DRIVE WITH ONLY ONE HEADLIGHT (LOW BEAM) ESPECIALLY THERE IS NO STREET LIGHTS AND ALSO FOR ONCOMING DRIVERS IF I USE THE HIGH BEAM TO DRIVE. THERE IS A SAME PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL - YEARS 2002 ' 2004 (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V136000). PLEASE EXPAND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MODEL YEAR 2005 AS WELL BEFORE SOMEONE GET INJURED.

HEADLIGHT RECALL. I AM AWARE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME HEADLIGHT RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS OF HONDA CRV. I HAVE A 2005. THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT AND/OR FAIL VERY FREQUENTLY. I HAVE OWNED THE CRV FOR MAYBE 5 YEARS AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BULBS 4 TO 5 TIMES. NOW THE RIGHT HEADLAMP WILL NOT WORK EVEN WITH A BRAND NEW BULB. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. THE HEADLIGHTS COULD FAIL WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT. THE DATE ENTERED BELOW IS JUST THE MOST RECENT FAILURE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE FAILED WHILE THE HIGH BEAMS CONTINUE TO WORK. THIS SAME FAILURE IN OTHER HONDA MODELS MERITED A SAFETY RECALL. PLEASE SEE HONDA SERVICE BULLETINS 12-056 AND 04-15. THE 2005 CR-V HAS THE SAME PART, FAILURE, AND REPAIR PROCEDURE FOR THE LIGHT SWITCH WIRE HARNESS LOCATED IN THE STEERING COLUMN. I FEEL A SAFETY RECALL SHOULD APPLY TO MY VEHICLE, SINCE IT IS THE SAME FAILURE, SAME PART TO REPLACE AND SAME DANGER. THIS IS A WIDELY REPORTED ISSUE ON THE HONDA SERVICE BOARDS.

I PURCHASED A 2005 HONDA CRV IN 2018 OF FEBRUARY IN OZARK MISSOURI. IT WENT THROUGH A MISSOURI SAFETY CHECK AND PASSED A FEW MONTHS LATER I NEEDED TO COME BACK TO CALIFORNIA AND SINCE I'VE BEEN BACK WITHIN THREE MONTHS TIME MY ENGINE MY BELTS MY BRAKES MY STARTER MY ELECTRICAL SENSORS MY FUEL THEY HAVE ALL SEEM TO HAVE FAILED AND BEEN REPLACED BY A MECHANICAL I PAID IN DECEMBER 2018 I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE TO TAKE MY CAR IN SO THE AIRBAGS CAN BE CHECKED THE WHOLE ENGINE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NEED CHECKING AS WELL BECAUSE IT'S NOT A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE AND I'VE BEEN FEELING THAT FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. IT STARTED OFF AS A GOOD CAR BUT ONCE I CHANGE THE ENGINE OIL EVERYTHING SEEM TO MALFUNCTION AND GO DOWN LIKE DOMINOES CAR HAS FAILED TO START SEVERAL TIMES HAS SHUT OFF WITHOUT NOTICE

TAKATA RECALL CAR WAS STARTED IN PARKING LOT AT MECHANIC FOR A MISFIRING SPARK PLUGS. MECHANIC PLACED NEW SPARK PLUGS AND A MISSING COIL AND CAR STARTED RIGHT UP. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN LIE TO BE PULLED INTO THE BAY BY MECHANIC WENT INTO HIS OFFICE WHICH WAS ABOUT 75 FEET AWAY THEN HEARD AN EXPLOSION. UPON GOING OUT TO MY VECHILE HE NOTICED THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND HAD EXPLODED FOR NO REASON. THE SIDE CURTAIN AND SEAT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. CAR STILL RUNNING WAS NOT OVERHEATED NOR DID ANYONE WASVIN THE CAR. INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 11/05/2918 WAS REPORTED TO OWNER AUTO INSURANCE AS AN UNEXPLAINED LOSS AND REPORTED TO THE HONDA MANUFACTURE AS ON ISSUE AND A CLAIM NUMBER WAS ASSIGNED FROM BOTH INSURANCE COMPANY AND HONDA MANUFACTURER A CLAIM EXAMINER AUDITED THE VECHILE FOR LOSS AND HONDA MANUFACTURER SAID THEY WOULD PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS IF IT WOULD BE BROUGHT TO A HONDA DEALER. CAR WAS DRIVEN TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND A SPECIALIZED NO READING COULD BE CONCLUDED AS THE SRS WAS FRIED HONDA THE ESTIMATE INCLUDES SRS UNIT, SEAT SENSORS, CURTAIN AIRBAG, DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BACK ASSEMBLY, LABOR IS $1,082.00 AND PARTS ARE $3,172.87 TOTAL $4,254.87 FOR TOTAL REPAIRS. I AM WAITING ON MY HONDA DPSM REP TO GIVE ME FEEDBACK. INSURANCE COMPANY ASKED FOR A FORENSIC MECHANIC TO EVALUATED OR GET TO ROOT CAUSE OF AIRBAGS SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODING THROUGH BLACK BOX AS HONDA DID NOT INCLUDE BLACK BOX TILL THE 2012 MODELS THIS VECHILE IS A 2005 MODEL HENCE DID NOT HAVE A BLACK BOX AND NO DETERMINATION WAS DETERMINED FOR ROOT CAUSE. THE VECHILE BEING A 2005 13 YEARS OLD AND ONLY HAD A TOTAL OF 143,850 MILES, BODY AND INTERIOR LEARHER SEARS WERE IN IDEAL CONDITION. CAR SHOULD HAVE LASTED AT LEAST ANOTHER 100,000 MILES CAR WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS AND CAR WAS SCRAPED. FACT WAS IF I OR ANYONE ELSE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE CAR IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN FATAL ACCIDENT.

EVERY FEW MONTHS THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT GOES OUT. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE 2011, AND IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE THE ENTIRE TIME. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF HEADLIGHTS ARE USED CONTINUOUSLY OR FOR JUST AN HOUR A DAY ON THE HIGHWAY AND INTERSTATE, HAVE HAD MULTIPLE WARNINGS FROM AREA POLICE. SAME THING HAPPENS THAT THE DRIVER SIDE BULB BLOWS. PASSENGER SIDE HAS ONLY NEEDED REPLACED A FEW TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. WHY ISN'T THIS ISSUE ON A RECALL LIKE THE 2002-2004 MODELS, THEY HAD THE SAME ISSUE BUT WITH A RECALL..
