STEERING
WITH THE 2019 MODEL OF CR-V, I AM UNABLE TO ONLY TURN OF THE LANE KEEP ASSIST. THERE IS NO MENTION IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL ABOUT HOW TO EXCLUSIVELY TURN THE LANE KEEP ASSIST OFF, OR AT THE VERY LEAST CONFIGURE IT SO THAT IT DOES NOT APPLY FORCE ON THE STEERING WHEEL. ALL OTHER ADVANCED FEATURES CAN EITHER NOT BE TURNED ON, OR DESELECTED IN THE MENU. THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE LANE KEEP ASSIST IS INCORRECTLY APPLYING STEERING WHEEL FORCES. THERE IS A LOT OF ROAD CONSTRUCTION BY ME AND THE SYSTEM WILL TRY AND PULL THE CAR INTO THE VEHICLE TRAVELING IN THE NEXT LANE. A HUGE PROBLEM IF IT IS A SEMI TRUCK. THERE MUST BE A WAY TO DEFEAT THIS FEATURE AND NOT EFFECT OTHER SAFETY FEATURES THAT DO FUNCTION CORRECTLY.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE REFUELING (AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND DIFFERENT PUMPS) THE FUEL NOZZLE BECOMES STUCK IN THE CAP LESS FILLER. LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, WHERE THE PUMPS HAVE THE VAPOR RE-CYCLER. DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS CAUSING THE ISSUE OR NOT. THIS IS WHILE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, ENGINE OFF. WAITED FOR 5 TO 6 SECONDS AS IS CALLED OUT IN THE MANUAL. DIDN'T HELP THE ISSUE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
PURCHASED 4 WEEKS AGO & WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN MOISTURE INTRUDES INTO DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT CAUSING SEVERE FOGGING WHICH REDUCES VISIBILITY AT NIGHT. THE HEADLIGHT DOESN'T CARRY SUFFICIENT ILLUMINATION THRU THE FOGGING TO SAFELY SEE FORWARD COMING TRAFFIC OR ROAD OBSTRUCTIONS. DEALER SAID IT WAS "NORMAL" & DID NOTHING.

POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE WAS BACKED INTO GARAGE TO TOWEL DRY AFTER WASHING. VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN PARK, TURNED ENGINE OFF AND I EXITED THE VEHICLE. AFTER COLLECTING DRYING TOWELS I PROCEEDED TO LOCK VEHICLE (CONFIRMED BY BEEP) AND STARTED TO ENTER MY HOME WHEN I NOTICED VEHICLE BEGINNING TO ROLL OUT OF MY GARAGE. I COULD NOT CATCH IT BEFORE IT ROLLED DOWN MY DRIVE AND ACROSS MY STREET INTO A TREE DAMAGING FRONT END OF VEHICLE. WHEN I REACHED VEHICLE AND UNLOCKED IT TO ENTER IT WAS STILL IN PARK. I THEN STARTED VEHICLE AND BACKED IT UP (DRAGGING FRONT BUMPER) INTO MY GARAGE.

THE BATTERY IS REPEATEDLY DEAD AFTER A DAY OR SO IF NOT DRIVEN. THE DEALER SAYS A DRAW OF 0.500 AMP WAS FOUND FROM THE EVAPORATION DETECTION MODULE AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO FIX IT. THEY CANNOT GIVE ME ANY TIMELINE FOR THIS UPDATE OTHER THAN TO SAY "THEY ARE WORKING ON IT". IN THE MEANTIME, ANYTIME I DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR FOR A DAY OR TWO, I NEED TO GET A "JUMP" TO GET IT STARTED.

PURCHASED 12/28/18. AFTER DRIVING HOME FROM DEALER(60 MILES) CAR WAS NOT USED FOR 2 DAYS. TRIED TO START CAR AND BATTERY WAS DEAD- TOTALLY DRAINED. CALLED ROADSIDE SERVICE WHO STARTED BY QUICK CHARGING BATTERY. BROUGHT TO DEALER WHO INSTALLED TRICKLE CHARGE ON BATTERY AND TOLD ME TO PLUG IN CAR EACH NIGHT TO AVOID BATTERY DRAIN. THEY HAD ALSO CHANGED TO A NEW BATTERY. AFTER FIRST BATTERY FAILURE 5 ADDITIONAL TIMES IT FAILED. DEALERSHIP THINKS A HONDA AMERICA WILL ISSUE A CORRECTIVE SERVICE BULLETIN DURING MARCH 2019. ALSO, DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF 4 ADDITIONAL 2019 CRVS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

PURCHASED 2019 HONDA CR-V ON FEBRUARY 9, 2019. DROVE ONLY TWICE IN THE FIRST 2 WEEKS. ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE FOR THE 3RD TIME (101 MILES ON ODOMETER) ON THE 2 WEEK ANNIVERSARY OF BUYING, FEBRUARY 23, 2019 AND THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD! HONDA SENT TOW TRUCK, DRIVER CHARGED BATTERY. TOOK INTO HONDA TODAY FOR INSPECTION, THEY CHECKED THE BATTERY AND ONLY THE BATTERY AND SAID IT WAS FINE, NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO. I WOULD HAVE LIKED THEM TO CHECK AND SEE WHAT DRAINED THE BATTERY. THE CAR SAT FROM TUESDAY TO SATURDAY, I WOULD EXPECT IT TO START WITHOUT AN ISSUE. SPOKE TO SALES ASSOCIATE WHO SAID THAT NEW CARS TEND TO DRAIN THE BATTERY IF THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE LEFT IN THE ON POSITION. I DON'T KNOW WHY THAT WOULD EVEN BE A POSSIBILITY BUT IF THAT IS A FACT IT SHOULD BE CORRECTED.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON A CLEAR AFTERNOON, WE WENT ONTO THE ENTRY RAMP FOR THE HIGHWAY TO RT 95 S. THE RAMP WAS NOT STRAIGHT AND HAD CURVES. WHEN AN ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO APPLY THE BRAKES TO SLOW FOR THE FIRST CURVE, THEY DID NOT RESPOND AS THEY SHOULD, THEY PULSED AND LOCKED. AT THE SAME TIME, THE DIGITAL DASH BEGAN DISPLAYING MULTIPLE WARNINGS OF SYSTEMS NOT FUNCTIONING INCLUDING BRAKE, EMERGENCY BRAKE, TRANSMISSION, POWER STEERING, TIRE PRESSURE, LANE ASSIST, CRUISE CONTROL, HILL ASSIST,, ETC. WITH DIFFICULTY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL ONTO THE GRASS SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, THERE WAS NOT A BREAKDOWN LANE IN VIEW. WE TRIED SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTING, AND THE WARNINGS PERSISTED. I CONTACTED HONDA ASSISTANCE AND THEY SENT A TOW TRUCK. THE TOW DRIVER STATED HE HAD DIFFICULTY LOADING THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE BRAKES BEING LOCKED. AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY ALSO COULD NOT RELEASE THE BRAKES TO OFF LOAD THE CAR.
