FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Vehicle began hard braking using the collision avoidance system when there were no other vehicles or obstacles on the road. Then the vehicle safety systems (adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, collision mitigation braking system and road departure mitigation system and brake system) all began displaying warning messages. The car only has 1600 miles. The dealer inspected and states that the safety systems are not functioning because the camera failed. A replacement part will not be available for six weeks and the dealer indicated the vehicle was safe to drive with the error messages, but that in an accident none of the safety features would function. The dealer is unable to provide a reason for the failure, but suggested it could be due to heat. The dealer indicated there was the same vehicle type that experienced the same failure a few days earlier.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
Within two hours of picking new CRV up, Auto Stop Idle Problem - see your Dealer" message popped up. Two weeks later, 12 error messages popped up on dash. Took vehicle in 5 times for repairs after error messages popped up after each repair. Front grill, battery sensor, battery and entire harness were replaced. I don't feel confident I can trust the safety of this vehicle. In addition, this vehicle does not have blind spot warning.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
A new 2023 CRV Honda than in less than two months it’s sunroof shattered while I was driving in the freeway. It was a very scary and dangerous situation because it sounded like an explosion and several pieces of glass hit my face, my passenger and my little dog. No object hit the sunroof. I took my new vehicle to the Honda dealer to replace the glass. Honda denied my claim. It’s infuriating that Honda states that sunroofs are not part of the warranty because this glass comes from another manufacturer. I ended up paying for a defective glass and I feel that it might happen again and Honda is not doing anything to take care of this defective sunroof glass!! Very frustrated!

This issue verified be a dealership as a manufacturing issue. I was quoted a price for repairs which would be added to my car fax. There might be an issue with frame or metal used for this vehicle

STRUCTURE:BODY
The Honda 2023 CRV Hybrid Sport experiences significant hood flexing / movement at high speeds, giving the indicator that the hood may suddenly open while driving (should the latch break). This happens ALWAYS at speeds of 60mph+ or during high wind circumstances and the movement gets far worse the higher in speed or the higher the wind conditions. The hood is confirmed closed each time before it starts and this happens with consistency. I have made an appointment to speak with the dealer about this on this upcoming Friday, but I have read online of many other individuals experiencing this issue and wanted to report it to ensure others are not impacted dangerously by this issue. No warning messages, symptoms, or lights appear. The issue has been confirmed.

STEERING
I bought a brand new 2023 CRV Hybrid Sport and am having issues with the steering. When at speeds greater than 20 mph , the steering becomes stiff and hard to maneuver. It makes it impossible to swerve out of the way of a dangerous life threatening situation in front of a driver Significant force and two hand driving is needed to steer left and right at higher speeds The vehicle is brand new, only 44 miles on it so far

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The contact owns a 2023 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 30 MPH, several warning lights would flash on the instrument panel as the speedometer would fail to operate. The contact stated that the speedometer would read 0 MPH while the vehicle was in motion. The contact notified the dealer after the failure and had the vehicle towed to their location. The contact was informed that the soft set connection wires were loose and needed repair. The vehicle was repaired and the vehicle was returned to the contact; however, the failure returned a few days later upon start of the vehicle. The vehicle was then towed to Burns Honda(325 NJ-73, Marlton, NJ 08053) where a diagnostic determined a defect with the dash harness. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was 1,188.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES
I was pulling up to the Subway sandwich shop to pick up my lunch. I was approaching from their back ally (coming from Walgreens next door) so I could not have been going faster than a few miles per hour. As I approached the parking space the car started speeding up so I turned right to keep from going through the building and drove in circles to keep from hitting the buildings. I could not go onto the street because traffic was heavy. I kept pumping the brakes and the car did not stop until I hit a parked car and pushed that car into another car. All airbags deployed. My 16 year old grandson and I were injured, but no individuals were in the parked cars.

On highway this Honda CR-V was hit by another vehicle 2013 doge at right rear side. Other car was sliding on the road , crossing the lanes and hitting the CR-V. Side airbags were deployed immediately during primary collision. CR-V didn’t stop after that. It turned left from right most lane and hit the median heavily. Lane keeping assistance, frontal collision system, automatic emergency braking did not work properly. It hit the median and all front airbags were deployed. Honda should improve the safety features when it was hit by other car in rear, Honda CR-V should not twist and turn left & make secondary collision.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
On 2/11/23, after having my car less than a month and having fewer than 1000 miles on it, I got a critical warning light that told me to stop driving as soon as possible because my 12 volt battery wasn’t charging and my vehicle was not safe to drive. My car had to be towed to the dealership and the power control unit needs to be replaced. I had no clues that I was going to get this warning so it came as a total shock to me that my car was no longer drivable. Luckily I was in a location where I was able to stop driving very quickly and was not on the highway. I was told this part is like the alternator on a non-hybrid car, so like it’s brain. Had I been in a place where it wasn’t safe to pull over, my car could have stopped abruptly causing a major accident. The vehicle has been inspected at the dealership and a part has been ordered. The earliest it may arrive is 3/14/23. This means my car will be at the dealership for more than 30 days. I thought this would qualify my car as a lemon under the lemon law but the dealer is telling me this is not the case because they have ordered the part and it is back ordered.

SEATS
The back two bolts in the driver seat were never installed at the factory, thus the back of the seat is not attached to the car. The dealership did not notice on the PDI. I drive it for a month before I noticed it.
