TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
SUDDEN FAILURE (WARNING LIGHTS) OF ABS AND VSA SYSTEMS. NON RESETTABLE, THESE SYSTEMS ARE NON FUNCTIONAL. 2006 HONDA CRV LESS THAN A YEAR OUT OF WARRANTY AND ONLY 20088 MILES. HONDA DIAGNOSED AND DECLARED A NEW VSA CONTROL VALVE NEEDED. CODE 66-1. REPAIR ESTIMATE $2064. THERE ARE MANY MORE CASES EXACTLY THE SAME ON THE INTERNET. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL IF FAILURE IS SO SOON IN THE CAR'S LIFE AND SO EXPENSIVE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM
ON WEDNESDAY JULY 21, 2010 AT APPROXIMATELY 1:00PM I LEFT TO PICK UP MY COUSINS FAMILY FROM PHOENIX SKY HARBOR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. DRIVING THERE THE AIR CONDITIONING ON MY 2006 HONDA CRV WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. UPON ARRIVING AT THE AIRPORT I HEADED TO THE CURBSIDE PICKUP TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND LOADED UP THE LUGGAGE. WHEN I TURNED ON THE IGNITION TO HEAD BACK HOME I NOTICED THE AIR CONDITIONER WAS NO LONGER RUNNING COLD, ONLY BLOWING HOT AIR. IN ARIZONA, THE SUMMER TIME IS EXTREMELY HOT. TODAY, JULY 27, 2010 I TOOK MY HONDA CRV TO FIRESTONE COMPLETE AUTO CARE TO HAVE AN A/C PERFORMANCE CHECK AND IT WAS DETERMINED ROAD DEBRIS (A ROCK) WENT THROUGH THE CONDENSER AND CREATED A HOLE. THE ASSOCIATE CONTACTED TOYOTA (PURCHASED IT CERTIFIED USED AND BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY) WHO SAID IT WAS CONSIDERED ROAD DAMAGE AND THE REPAIR WOULD NOT BE COVERED. I HAVE HELD OFF ON THE REPAIR UNTIL I GATHER A FEW ESTIMATES AND CONTACT HONDA DIRECTLY. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG SOME OF THEIR VEHICLES. THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE GRILL THAT ALLOWS LARGE DEBRIS TO ENTER AND CAUSE DAMAGE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY
WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 HONDA CR-V I NOTICED A VERY STRONG BURNING SMELL THAT SMELLED LIKE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. IT WAS VERY STRONG AND I THOUGHT IT WAS COMING FROM THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS AT AN OUTLET CENTER IN LK GEORGE , NY WITH 4 OTHERS IN MY CAR. WE ALL WERE OVERWHELMED ON HOW STRONG THE ODOR WAS. I PULLED OUT OF THE OUTLET DRIVEWAY TO GET INTO THE ROAD SO I COULD TURN INTO THE NEXT OUTLET ENTRANCE. AS I TURNED INTO THE NEXT OUTLET ENTRANCE , MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WENT DOWN ON ITS OWN A FEW SECONDS LATER I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE MASTER WINDOW CONTROL AND FROM MY SPEAKER PANEL BELOW IT. I STOPPED THE CAR AND HAD EVERYONE GET OUT. .911 WAS CALLED AND A FIRETRUCK CAME. THE FIREMEN TOOK THE INSIDE PANEL OF MY CAR DOOR OFF AND FOUND THERE WERE BURNED ELECTRICAL WIRES THAT HAD CAUSED MELTING WITHIN THE DOOR. THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS MODEL HONDA. I LOOKED UP THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THE HONDA FIT WAS RECALLED FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM IN JANUARY,2010. THE ENTIRE WINDOW MASTER SWITCH AND IT'S CORRESPONDING WIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE INSIDE DOOR PANEL. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2006 HONDA, CR-V. REAR DIFFERENTIAL MAKING NOISE, AT SLOWED SPEEDS WHILE TURNING. CHECKED OWNERS MANUAL, IT STATES TO CHANGE AT 90,000 MILES. CHECKED ON-LINE TO SEE IF THIS WAS A COMMON COMPLAINT. COULDN'T BELIEVE THERE IS AN ACTUAL SERVICE BULLETIN OUT FOR THIS AND NO NOTIFICATION FROM THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM OR THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I'VE HAD MY OIL CHANGES DONE AT. REALLY DISAPPOINTED THAT I HAVE TO PAY TO REPLACE THE FLUIDS SO I DON'T HAVE DAMAGE DONE TO MY CAR. WHY IS HONDA NOT NOTIFYING THERE LOYAL CUSTOMERS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, MAYBE COVERING THE COST TO REPLACE THE FLUIDS THAT ARE "JUST BREAKING DOWN PREMATURELY" I BOUGHT MY HONDA BECAUSE OF THE REPUTATION. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE
MY REAR GATE WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO OPEN & CLOSE. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP & THEY ADVISED THAT THE HINGES NEEDED LUBRICATING. THE SPRAYED A YELLOW FOAM ON THE HINGES. IN THE WEEK THAT FOLLOWED, I NOTICED THAT OPENING THAT REAR GATE BECAME VERY EASY, SO MUCH SO THAT THE REAR GATE "FALLS" OUT OF PLACE. IN ORDER TO CLOSE THE GATE I NEED TO LIFT UP WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT & SHOVE IT CLOSED. LOOKING CLOSER AT THE HINGES, THEY APPEAR TO BE SNAPPED. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY (5/24/10) AND THEY ADVISED THAT THE HINGE WAS SNAPPED FROM DISINTEGRATING, AND THAT THEY HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THEY SENT ME TO THE BODY SHOP THEY USE AND THE MAN THERE ALSO TOLD ME THE SAME THING, THE HINGE HAS DISINTEGRATED. I NOW NEED TO REPLACE THE HINGES BECAUSE THE BODY SHOP TOLD ME THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, THE REAR DOOR COULD FALL OFF WHILE DRIVING AS THE ONLY THING HOLDING THIS ON IS THE REAR GATE HANDLE LOCK AND IF THE DOOR FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING IT COULD NOT ONLY KILL SOMEONE DRIVING BEHIND ME, BUT THAT IT WOULD BE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE REAR DOOR/GATE. THIS IS A 2006 HONDA CR-V, HOW CAN HINGES DISINTEGRATE IN 4 YEARS?! *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
ON MAY 8TH, I DROVE MY 2006 HONDA CR-V HOME FROM A RESTAURANT. I TRAVELED ABOUT 25 MILES PER HOUR IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. MY HONDA CR-V SUDDENLY SHUT OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTED ITSELF. THE VSA LIGHT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ONE MORE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS SO SCARED. ON MAY 10TH, I TOOK MY CAR TO HONDA DEALER TO BE CHECKED OUT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSISTANCE (VSA) SYSTEM FAILED AFTER I OWNED THE CAR FOR FOUR YEARS AND AT 45000+ MILES. DEALER TOLD ME IT COST $2300 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE SYSTEM. I DID NOT ACCEPT IT. I ASKED DEALER AND AMERICA HONDA CORP. TO HELP. FINALLY THEY AGREED I PAID $725 DOLLARS FOR THE ENTIRE REPAIR. *TR

VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT EVEN AFTER PROPER ALIGNMENT. THIS FAILURE IS CONTINUOUS. IN ICE OR SNOW COVER CONDITIONS VEHICLE HAS A TENDENCY TO SLIDE. AFTER SEVERAL VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE BLAME WAS ALWAYS PLACED ON TIRES OR ROTORS. AFTER REPLACING TIRES AND ROTORS THESE SYMPTOMS STILL PERSISTED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
1) APRIL 5, 2010: FORTY-FIVE MINUTES INTO THE DRIVE, MY GAS TANK (WHICH WAS HALF FULL) DROPPED BELOW EMPTY IN JUST ONE SECOND. I COULD FEEL THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS IN THE LEFT HAND LANE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. AT THIS POINT, I KNEW THAT I NEEDED TO PULL OVER AND GET HELP. UNFORTUNATELY, THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE PASSING ME ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE NOT ALLOWING ME TO GET OVER. I KNEW THAT IF SOMEONE WOULD NOT LET ME OVER INTO THE RIGHT HAND LANE, I WAS GOING TO DIE ALONG WITH OTHERS THAT WOULD CRASH INTO ME. FORTUNATELY, GOD CREATED AN OPENING. AT THIS OPENING, I MERGED ONTO AN EXIT RAMP FOR ME TO REALIZE I DON'T HAVE ANY BRAKES AT ALL. I WENT INTO PANIC AND FIGHT MODE. I WAS AN INCH AWAY FROM SLAMMING INTO A POLE AND TIPPING OVER A LITTLE CLIFF WHEN I SLAMMED THE CAR INTO PARK POSITION IN ORDER TO STOP MY CAR. 2) FAILURE: LOSS OF CONTROL, ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN, LOSS OF BRAKES ON THE HIGHWAY CONSEQUENCES: ALMOST LOST MY LIFE AND COULD'VE EASILY KILLED OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE PROBLEM OCCURRED, BUT THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ENGINE PROBLEM. 3) CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP. SEVERAL SCANS DONE. THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. 4) TOWED CAR FROM THAT DEALERSHIP TO MY ORIGINAL DEALER. THIS HONDA CR-V BOUGHT BRAND NEW IS CURRENTLY WITH MY ORIGINAL DEALER. THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE DEFECT. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON MARCH 16, 2010, THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROLS (LOCATED ON DRIVERS DOOR), BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS. I COULD NO LONGER CLOSE THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW FROM THIS CONTROL. I WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW AND WAS ABLE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE THREE REMAINING POWER WINDOWS. THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DID WORK (TO OPEN AND CLOSE THAT WINDOW). ON MARCH 23, 2010, I TURNED ON THE IGNITION FOR MY CRV AS I GOT READY TO GO TO WORK. I NOTICED AN INTENSE BURNING SMELL (OF PLASTIC) AND WAS ABLE TO TRACE IT TO THE DRIVER'S DOOR WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES. I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE AND TRIED TO EXAMINE THE DOOR FURTHER. SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE OPENINGS (LIKE THE SPEAKER COVER) OF THE DOOR PANEL. I NOTICED THAT THE CONTROL SWITCH FOR THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW WAS NOW STICKING. I PULLED OUT THE POWER WINDOW FUSE FROM THE ENGINE FUSE BOX AND TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC. UPON DISASSEMBLING THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO EXAMINE THE WIRING INSIDE THE DOOR AND ALL LOOKED NORMAL (NO SIGN OF BURNS). THEY TOOK OUT THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH AND DISASSEMBLED THAT AND FOUND CLEAR BURN MARKS UNDERNEATH ONE SWITCH AND ON THE MOTHERBOARD ATTACHED TO IT. THEY WILL BE INSTALLING A BRAND NEW SWITCH TOMORROW THAT WAS ORDERED FROM HONDA. UNTIL THE SWITCH IS REPLACED, I DO NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE POWER LOCKS FROM THE INSIDE, OPENING OR CLOSING THE WINDOWS, OR ADJUSTING THE REAR VIEW MIRRORS. I DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL SWITCH AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW OF THE DAMAGE. WHILE I DID NOT SEE FLAMES, I DO BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE INSIDE THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH AND HAD THE CAR RUN ANY LONGER, THE SMOKE AND FIRE WOULD HAVE SPREAD AND COULD HAVE LED TO MORE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING (AND NOT PARKED) WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WE EXPERIENCE SUDDEN ACCELERATION WITH OUR HONDA CRV 2006. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND CAN HAPPEN AT VARYING SPEEDS ON HIGHWAY OR STREETS. WE HAVE NO FLOOR MATS BY THE WAY. WHEN WE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY KEEP TELLING US THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP US. "SINCE EVERYTHING IS COMPUTERIZED THE CAR MUST BE DOING THE ACTUAL SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN YOU BRING IT IN," WE WERE TOLD. WE FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE AND FELT IT WISE TO REPORT TO YOU. HOW CAN WE GET HELP? NATIONAL HONDA CUSTOMER CENTER SAID THE SAME THING TO US. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON MONDAY, JANUARY 25, 2010, MY 2006 HONDA CRV WAS PARKED IN A LOT, TURNED OFF, FOR AT LEAST 10 MIN. WHILE I SAT IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT MAKING FOLLOW-UP SALES CALLS. A WHITE CLOUD OF SMOKE BEGAN TO RISE FROM THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH SPECIFICALLY COMING FROM THE REAR LEFT BUTTON. IT SMELLED LIKE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. WITHIN 5 SECONDS, FLAMES STARTED COMING OUT OF THE BUTTON. AFRAID, I GRABBED MY BOTTLE OF WATER, POURING HALF OF IT ON THE FLAMES. THE FLAMES ACTUALLY STOPPED, THE SMOKE CONTINUED. I POURED THE REST OF THE BOTTLE ON IT AND FINALLY THE SMOKE SUBSIDED. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND LATE. I WENT HOME AND TOLD MY HUSBAND WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE SUGGESTED I STOP AT OUR NEARBY SERVICE STATION AND ASK WHAT THEY THOUGHT. THE NEXT DAY I DID JUST THAT. TUESDAY, JANUARY 26 I PULLED INTO THAT SAME STATION, WHERE I HAVE MOST OF MY VEHICLE SERVICE WORK DONE. THEY REMOVED THE WHOLE CONTROL PANEL TO FIND IT HAD ACTUALLY MELTED AND BURN MARKS REMAINED ON THE FABRIC COVERING THE DOOR. I THEN HEADED FOR THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE CAR. WITH THE CONTROL PANEL IN HAND, I SHOWED AND EXPLAINED TO THEM THE OBVIOUS PROBLEM. I WAS THEN TOLD THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS AND IT WOULD ONLY TAKE A DAY OR TWO FOR THEM TO REPLACE THE SWITCH, WHICH COST ME $187.00. THEY GAVE ME A FREE LOANER CAR AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THURSDAY JANUARY 28, I PICKED UP MY CAR, PAID THE BILL AND LEFT. AS I WAS DRIVING ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, LISTENING TO 1210 RADIO, WHERE THEY SPOKE OF THE HONDA RECALL OF THE FIT FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM! I HAD ALREADY CALLED THE HONDA NATIONAL NUMBER, SPOKE WITH A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. AND THEN HAD A CLAIM AGENT RETURN MY CALL. THESE CALLS OCCURRED ON TUESDAY, PRIOR TO MY ARRIVING AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. HIS RESPONSE WAS THE SAME AS THE HONDA DEALER ONLY MORE RUDE AND DEFENSIVE. SOMEONE HAD THE FIRST FIT WHICH HAD A WINDOW SWITCH FIRE! PERHAPS I HAD THE FIRST HONDA C-RV WHICH HAD A WINDOW SWITCH FIRE! *TW

I REAR-ENDED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH I SAW IT AND USED THE BRAKE (FULL STRENGTH) FROM A REASONABLE DISTANCE. THE BRAKE WAS NOT WORKING EFFECTIVELY. DAMAGED BODY PARTS WERE REPLACED IN MAY. I HAD A HONDA DEALER TO CHECK MY BRAKE IN THE ANNUAL INSPECTION, BUT WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG FROM THEIR PERSPECTIVE. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I PARKED IN MY OFFICE PARKING GARAGE SPOT JUST AS I NORMALLY DO. I PULLED IN THE SPOT GOING VERY SLOWLY, AND EVEN THOUGH I AM COMPLETELY CONVINCED THAT MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AS I TURNED INTO THE PARKING SPOT, ONCE THE CAR WAS IN THE SPOT, THE CAR SUDDENLY WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR REASON SURGED FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO A CONCRETE BEAM THAT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY PARKING SPOT. I AM SURE THERE WAS NOTHING I DID TO CAUSE THIS. THE WEATHER WAS VERY COLD THAT DAY, AND THAT IS THE ONLY THING THAT WAS DIFFERENT FROM THE NUMEROUS OTHER DAYS I HAVE PARKED IN THE SAME PARKING GARAGE WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE CAR DID NOT SKID FORWARD, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ICE, AND I HAD A VERY DISTINCT SENSATION OF THE CAR ENGINE REVVING UP ON ITS OWN WHEN IT ACCELERATED. I WAS BRUISED WHERE THE SEAT BELT WAS POSITIONED ACROSS MY CHEST, BUT OTHERWISE I WAS OKAY. THE CAR SUSTAINED APPROXIMATELY $8,000 IN DAMAGES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V WHICH WAS PURCHASED IN 2007. SHE STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK AND AFTER THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO A CEMENT WALL; ALTHOUGH, HER FOOT REMAINED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CRASH CAUSED SEVERE FRONT END DAMAGE AND THERE WAS SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SMOKE WAS DUE TO RADIATOR DAMAGE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CLOSEST COLLISION SHOP TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE UNDER 23,000.
