I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE FREEWAY AND HEARD A NOISE LIKE AIR RUSHING. MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON AND I PULLED OVER. THE TIRE BLEW OUT IN TWO PLACES ON THE INSIDE OF THE LEFT REAR TIRE. ROAD WAS CLEAR, DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING, TIRE JUST BLEW OUT. I WAS AMAZED WHEN I SAW OTHERS WITH HONDA CR-V'S HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. I AM GOING TO REPLACE ALL THE TIRES TOMORROW. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER ONE OF BRIDGESTONE TIRES..EVER. I JUST HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AT HONDA LAST FRIDAY AND THE CAR SERVICED. HONDA WANTED TO SELL ME ANOTHER BRIDGESTONE FOR 183.00. THEY CAN KEEP THEIR BRIDGESTONE TIRES. *TR

UNUSUAL WEAR (INTERIOR EDGE CUPPING) AND NOISE DEVELOPED ON THE RIGHT-REAR TIRE DURING THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF OWNERSHIP (PURCHASED NEW - JANUARY 2011) RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE TIRE CONDITION. MECHANIC (USING COMPUTER ALIGNMENT METHOD) DISCOVERED THAT CAMBER ALIGNMENT WAS NOT WITHIN THE SPECIFIED RANGE, HOWEVER, THERE IS NO CAMBER ADJUSTMENT OPTION ON THE VEHICLE. WITHOUT THE PROPER CAMBER ALIGNMENT, TIRE DESTRUCTION (IN THIS CASE INTERIOR EDGE CUPPING) OCCURS RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE TIRE CONDITION. AN AFTER-MARKET PART IS AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY CAMBER ADJUSTMENT, HOWEVER, IT IS NOT A HONDA OEM PART AND HONDA DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE RESPONSIBILITY RELATED TO THE ISSUE. A VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE ROUTINE ADJUSTMENT MECHANISMS TO AVOID DESTRUCTION OF PARTS WHICH CREATES AN UNSAFE CONDITION WITHOUT HAVING TO REPLACE AN ORIGINAL OEM PART TO ACCOMMODATE A NECESSARY (AND HONDA RECOMMENDED - VEHICLE ALIGNMENT) ADJUSTMENT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY WIPERS PULL THE WATER BACK ACROSS IN FRONT OF ME THE DRIVER THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD IT BLOCKS MY VIEW AND AT NIGHT IT IS ALMOST TO WHERE YOU WOULD RATHER STAY HOME IF ITS RAINING CAUSE YOU ARE AFRAID YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO HONDA ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THEY HAVE SAID AFTER CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES AND TRYING TO BEND THE ARM AND MULTIPLE RAIN X APPLICATIONS THEY CAN NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME. THEY SAID THAT CHANGING THE WINDSHIELD WOULD NOT HELP, AND TO ME BY LOOKING AT THE AUTOMOBILE IF THE LIP DOWN THE SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD WAS NOT THERE THE WATER WOULD BE SLUNG OFF THE SIDE VERSE BEING HELD ON THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS TO THE SERVICE MANAGER ETC AND EVEN HAD TO GO TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP WHILE TRAVELING BECAUSE THE RAINING ISSUE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE. THIS IS BECOMING A LARGE PROBLEM AND DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS JUST UNSAFE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO GET THIS CORRECTED IF ANYONE COULD HELP. IT WAS NICE TO SEE SOMEONE ELSE HAS THIS PROBLEM THEY KEEP TELLING ME NO ONE ELSE HAS COMPLAINED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING CONTINUOUSLY EVER SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE AND EVERY TIME I DRIVE IN THE RAIN VERY UNNERVING AND VERY HAZARDOUS. *TR

2011 HONDA CRV 4X4 WAS GOING AT 52 MPH AND TRYING TO BRAKE AND STEERING WHEEL WAS SHAKING REALLY BAD. ALSO WHEN DRIVING AT 65+ MPH THIS CAR STEERING REALLY SHAKES BADLY. -COMPLAINT IT TO HONDA MOTOR / DEALER WHERE CAR WAS PURCHASED BUT NO REAL HELP FROM ANYONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. - ALL 4-TIRES ARE WORN UN-EVENLY AT 19000 MILES - DEALER / HONDA MOTOR IS NOT WILLING TO RESPONSE BACK OR SEND US EMAIL BACK TO ACKNOWLEDGE OUR COMPLAINT ABOUT THE TIRES. - THEY ARE SAYING THAT THIS IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM, I SHOULD BE COMPLAINING TO THE TIRE COMPANY. *TR

SUMMARY: OUR WINDSHIELD WIPER ARM TRAVELS FROM RIGHT TO LEFT REMOVING RAIN FROM THE WINDSHIELD, THE WIPER PULLS THE RAIN BACK ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD BLOCKING THE DRIVERS VISION. IT APPEARS THAT THE DESIGN OF THE WINDSHIELD ARM AND BLADE PULLS THE WATER BACK ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD BLOCKING THE DRIVERS VISION. THIS FACTOR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. BLOCKING THE DEALER WAS NOTIFY WITH NO CORRECTION.*TR

THE CAR WAS IN AN INDOOR PARKING LOT. DRIVER BACKED UP OUT OF ITS PARKING SPACE AT A LOW SPEED AND BUMPED INTO A WALL BEHIND THE PARKING SPOT. AT THAT POINT, THE CAR JUMPED INTO DRIVE AND BEGAN ACCELERATING WITHOUT DRIVER DOING ANYTHING. DRIVER APPLIED THE BRAKE, BUT THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AND HIT A CEMENT PYLON. THE CAR BOUNCED OFF THE CEMENT PYLON AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE FORWARD, EVEN THOUGH DRIVER WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE. THE CAR HIT THE CEMENT PYLON AGAIN AND THEN ANOTHER CAR. THE CAR ONLY STOPPED WHEN DRIVER PUT IT INTO PARK AND TURNED IT OFF. *TR

I WAS POSITIONED AT AN INTERSECTION, WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. SINCE THIS VEHICLE IS MORE POWERFUL THAN THE ONE I HAD, PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC DIDN'T CONCERN ME THAT MUCH. WELL, IT DOES NOW. IT WENT JUST ENOUGH INTO THE INTERSECTION TO GET ME INTO A NEAR CRASH SITUATION. IT JUST TOTALLY BOGGED DOWN. THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR MAYBE? I HAVE TALKED TO FOUR PEOPLE WITH 2010 AND 2011 CRV'S AND THEY SAY THE SAME THING. I LOVE THIS CAR, BUT THIS HAS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE HAD NO OTHER PROBLEMS EXCEPT FOR THIS. THIS IS A REAL DOWNER FOR ME IN RELATION TO THIS CAR. HELP US HONDA. *TR
