STEERING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Honda has all these controls on their steering wheel that can accidentally be turned on, even while driving, and have any of those adaptive functions suddenly start working. For example, twice already I was driving and somehow the "Lane Keeping Assistance" turned on. My steering wheel was shaking and I couldnt control it, get it to stop. It frightened me & the first time I pulled over on the side of the road thinking my cars tie-rods have broken. It did it again last night and I was really frightened. My husband reached over & turned it off. He said I must have turned it on while holding the steering wheel. I had another function "Lane Depature warning" turn on when I was trying to switch lanes. I was fighting with the steering wheel. The paddles on the wheel are also a hazard. I reached for the turn signal & hit a paddle. I dont know what the hell these do & I was freaking out thinking what did I just turn on now that we make me lose control of the car. These functions should not be something that can be turned on once the car is started. I have never had any issues with cruise control on any car I own. I really do not like this car. I'm scared. I will need to drive my husbands mercedes because I fear the Honda CRV. I cant return the car. How many people have been in accidents or killed because they functions can turn themselves on without the driver knowing they did. This is not a nuisance, this is a accident waiting to happen. Please, something needs to be done. I spent $40K on a disaster. Thank you

STEERING
Filed complaint recently. Talked to dealer and was told that 184 of these Power Steering units are on Back Order with NO ESIMATED DELIVERY DATE. This is criminal. Honda says the problem as an inconvenience and will not lockup the steering. I would not like to be the first one that happens too. THIS NEEDS TO BE ESCALATED TO A RECALL.

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
My cars steering wheels starts to “stick” the further I drive. I notice when I’m driving on the interstate if my car starts to veer the steering wheel doesn’t easily turn. I have to yank the wheel in order to veer the car back on the road. I notice it started happening around November 2023 and it occurs most frequently the farther I drive.

STRUCTURE:BODY
The hood of this vehicle is supported by reinforcements from the underside. They are attached with some caulk type adhesive. The adhesive has failed causing the hood to flutter when you go over bumps or when you are on the highway. I am not sure but if the conditions are right, can the hood become detached from the supports and peel back or rip away from the vehicle? The dealer inspected the vehicle and replaced the hood. The new hood has the same failing adhesive issue. This car is 7 months old with 3500 miles on it.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My check engine light came on while driving, stating a system emission problem. 24 hours later, all driver-assist safety features have warning lights on the dash that all systems were disabled. I brought my CRV to Honda dealership service dept who determined that my fuel injectors had failed and needed replaced. Once the injectors were replaced, all the dash warning lights shut off and driver assist programs are working again. My car is only 3 years old and has 71,000 miles on it, and is outside of the parameters for the original warranty provided by Honda. I believe the fuel injectors should be recalled because of how many 5th generation CRVs need fuel injectors replaced during the early life of the car.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Honda CRV Hybrid, 6 months old, purchased new from the dealer. The car was parked on level ground. I started the car, shortly after I shifted it into reverse. Reverse camera turned on and the audible reverse sound turned on. I let go of the brake, car drove forward. I applied the brake, shifted into drive, then back into reverse. When I let go of the brake I had the same issue, the reverse camera turned on and the audible reverse sound turned on but the car moved forward. The steering was stiff as well. I shifted into park, turned off and restarted the car and the faulty issue went away.

STEERING
2021 Honda CR-V EX. When making a slight steering correction, the steering wheel and car will make a slight jerking motion. This will happen when turning in either direction. The result is I am constantly steering and trying to drive a straight line - and can't -. Very disturbing. The auto only has approx. 10,000 miles. The problem only started at about 9,000 miles. The DEALER has NOT inspected the unit as of today. There is no warning or indicator - it happens constantly when driving at any speed. ( you can also feel the jerky motion when setting still and slightly putting pressure on the steering wheel.)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
While driving in a 4 lane road up a slight grade my CRV abruptly stopped using automatic emergency braking in front of a metal plate laying in the road the was covering up some construction. I started driving again and the car again stopped abruptly several feet later at another metal plate.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
3 times this has happened now the latest incident today 4-19-2024. I’m driving along and then all of a sudden the car goes into hard braking mode and the emergency braking light comes on the dashboard. Twice I have almost been rear ended because of this problem. No cars are in front of me at the time. I feel the automatic braking system was not designed correctly. I hope no one gets into an accident because of this defect. This is the last Honda I will ever own.

STEERING
I have noticed a "sticky steering" feeling while driving. It has pulled me into oncoming traffic at times, I am in the process trying to get it repaired, hopefully not at cost to me. The car only has 15K miles on it, and it is frustrating.

STEERING
I feel the steering wheel sticky after the car start moving about a short distance like a mile. It happens at all speeds. I started noticing the problem about 3 or 4 months after I bought the car. The problem occasionally went away but happens most of the time. The steering wheel doesn't move smoothly when I try to make minor adjustment. On 4-17-2024 I was making a right turn into a parking space. I was moving at very low speed. Just before the car stopped I felt I hit something. I thought my right rear wheel hit the curb. I got out and looked around there was no curb. I think it came from the steering mechanism. There was no warning alarm or light.

STEERING
this is my second statement - my 2018 honda crv has a steering issue that began at about 75,000 miles - currently there is 86,000 miles - honda did a diagnostic test for $175.00 and told me the test showed no error codes - they then informed me the steering rack needed to be replaced at a cost of about $3000.00 but the replacement part is on back order until september 2024 - this crv is my only mode of transportation and i am concerned this steering issue is a danger - i have read that many honda's are having this steering issue but not all are being recalled - shouldn't honda fix this issue on all of their models ? thank you and have a nice day !

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Our 2019 Honda CRV had all warning lights on and flashing non-stop on the dash. We contacted Honda support and was asked to take car to a Honda dealer for diagnostics. We took the car to a Honda dealer in Huston TX. They found the cause DTC P0301, a internal failure to fuel injectors. We had to pay the dealer cash $$$$. We submitted the all repair documentations to Honda and asked for a reimbursement. Honda Co should have refund this repair cost!! It's so unfair that Honda denied to cover this recall repair just because somehow our car was not in the recall list!

STEERING
Vehicle started exhibiting a sticking of the power steering. Dealer drove the vehicle and confirmed the problem existed. A replacement power steering rack was ordered on 2/13 24. A phone call was made on 4/18/24 to check on the status. I was told September is the earliest expected date for the parts. This type of delay is unacceptable.
