VISIBILITY/WIPER
Newer CRV’s windshield wash fluid is delivered through a rubber hose /nozzle that ends on the metal wiper arm, and is exposed to extreme cold temperatures. Other vehicles hoses terminate in the hood, where they are kept warm by the heat radiating from the engine. We just drove cross country, experiencing below zero temps, on highways with heavy traffic and precipitation, with often frozen lines, resulting in really constant, poor visibility., The fluid being used is rated for -30, yet the lines still froze up.

STEERING
This isn't about a specific incident. For about four weeks, I've been having an issue with the steering on my 2024 Honda CRV Hybrid. When I get up to speed on interstates, the steering becomes sticky or clunky. After the car goes straight for a half mile or so, it will resist minor adjustments in steering. It's most pronounced when I try to adjust the steering wheel to the right. The steering is not smooth like I experienced with each of my other cars. I've turned off the lane change warning system, to no avail. It seems that I have to drive the car for awhile before this problem surfaces. Right now, the problem is just annoying. But I'm concerned that if it get worse, it might become dangerous.

STEERING
The vehicle only has 6000 miles on it and suddenly for apparently no reason, the steering seems "sticky" while traveling on a straight path. Larger steering movements, such as turning left or right seems fine. It only "sticks" while traveling straight.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
The supposedly “LED Headlights on this vehicle is very dim and very unsafe to drive. I have contacted Honda of Marysville Wa state about the headlights inability to provide light on the roads but was ignored. We almost had an accident because the headlights are so dim we almost hit another vehicle. This needs to be addressed by honda before something bad happens.

STEERING
We bought this 2024 CRV EXL just a few months ago and have less than 5000 miles. The steering catches and sticks at times. We have owned 5 new CRVS over the many years and this is NOT normal. Honda dealers want to say it’s “normal”. I am on a private Facebook 2023-2024 CRV site, and many have reported this issue. Some say it’s a steering rack. I don’t know but asking for your help as my wife doesn’t feel safe and we know it’s a manufactured issue. Please let us know [XXX] Kindly [XXX] and [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

STEERING, SUSPENSION, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
My CR-V Lane Keep Assist will pull my vehicle one way or the other jarringly violently, and will overcorrect itself the rest of the time. The result being that I have nearly totally stopped using the feature. Recently, though, I have noticed a sticking point just off of dead center when steering in either direction- at any speed. The worst part of this issue is that it causes turning to be unsmooth because the wheel doesn't turn smoothly. At any speed, I can notice the weighting of the steering wheel when I hit the (replicatible) sticking point- and then it is as if the vehicle "skips a few steering teeth" because it cause the wheel to turn a little more quickly as if to catch up to where I had intended to point the tires. This issue has persisted to the point that I googled to see if other owners were having this issue, and that's when I discovered that NHTSA had added the 2023 CR-V to an existing complaint involving Honda Civics with the same steering components. I wish to lodge my complaint in the hopes of making Honda and the NHTSA aware that this issue is also affecting 2024 CR-Vs. I am extra frustrated because I feel like my front suspension/steering components are clunking where that was not an issue over the early life of the vehicle. For reference, I have put 13000 miles on the vehicle since purchasing 07/27/2023.

STEERING
Steering becomes stiff and sticky intermittently. Problem first occurred with approximately 3,700 miles on the vehicle. Initially the problem was only apparent on the interstate highway at speeds of approximately 70 mph and after about 30 minutes or more of continuous highway driving. The resistance felt on the steering wheel can be overridden, but the result is difficulty maintaining a straight path down the highway due to over corrections. I now have 4,200 miles on the vehicle and the problem is showing up at lower speeds of approximately 40 to 50 mph. Lane assist and lane departure are both off. I checked tire pressure and it was good (35psi front 32psi rear) There were no warning lamps or messages. When driving around town at lower speeds the steering works fine. I took the vehicle to the local dealership service department and a steering rack is on backorder due to arrive April 2024.

STEERING
I noticed that at approximately 45mph that my steering wheel started stick and then unstick resulting in the steering wheel jerking. Some occurrences are worse than others and it seems to be more noticeable while driving at highway speeds (45mph - 65mph). I researched this and found multiple forums with 2022 - 2024 Honda owners experiencing the same problem. I also noticed an open NHTSA investigation (Investigation: EA23003).

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The driver side rear-view mirror vibrates any time i am traveling over 40-50 mph. This makes it extremely hard to see what is happening behind me. This is a huge problem while at high way speeds and it needs to be rectified immediately.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
This hybrid model does not display red brake lights during regenerative braking, at any of the settings. I have have had two occurrences where the driver behind me was apparently not aware that my vehicle was slowing somewhat rapidly, and thus nearly drive into the back of my vehicle. One of those drivers mentioned that they did not see any brake lights even though I was slowing down, approaching an intersection. I can see how this might be a safety issue. IF Tesla can have this function on their cars software then why cannot Honda? My vehicle also has times when I am travelling on straight city streets with no traffic in front of me, where the automatic emergency braking come on quite firmly for a second or two, without any apparent reason. Again, this presents a possible safety hazard to the vehicles behind me who may be following a little closer than they should, and may possible drive in to the back of my vehicle. Again, I am not aware of any brake lights present on my vehicle when this happens. A big improvement would be in the manner in which the radar sees things and makes false applications of this braking system, as well as having teh vehicle brake lights activate when this system decides to engage.

STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I got in the car this morning and noticed what looked like a condensation drip at the top of my passenger side mirror. By the time I got to work, a full length crack was down the mirror. I pulled my cameras and nothing touched my mirror over night. I did a google search and others are reporting similar issues. this has a direct affect on visibility while driving. Given other complaints found this is a known issue, then Honda needs to do a recall.

STEERING
On a drive back and forth to Florida from New Jersey the steering seemed to “stick” every so often during highway driving. Almost like the power steering was turned off. With a little additional effort I was able to continue steering but definitely something wasn’t right. I’m very familiar with lane departure and Lane assist features on this vehicle and both of those were not turned on when this was occurring.

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at approximately 60–65 MPH, the moon roof glass exploded without warning or impact. The contact pulled off the interstate, inspected the vehicle, and noticed an object emerging from the roof. The contact's wife detected an abnormal popping noise before the failure. There were no reported injuries. The contact called the local dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact called the local glass center, but no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was approximately 3,300.
