STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I woke up MLK day to find that my side left mirror had cracked, from top to the middle of the mirror, just a straight line. There was no damage to the rest of the car, no indication of anything hitting the mirror, just a clean crack, eventually the crack when through the whole mirror. I then reported to my honda dealership who then told me the side mirror is on back order which is causing a safety issue because it is challenging to drive when a mirror split it half, it throws off what I am looking at as I am driving There was no warning of an issue, just cracked and the car was parked in our driveway

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Today, 23 Jan 2023, while driving on local Las Vegas freeway the rear window in our 2023 HR-V shattered with an explosive sound with no obvious reason. There was no cargo in the back end of vehicle. At first we thought it had been a gunshot but nothing evident. We were surrounded by traffic in the middle lane of multi-lane freeway when this occurred. Glass pieces fell into the rear interior of vehicle, not able to stop to determine if any fell to the outside rear of vehicle. Weather conditions at the time were light rain/drizzle and we were using the rear window defroster as windows were fogging up. Luckily there was no one in the back seat at the time and no one sustained any injuries. We immediately drove car to the dealer and they informed us they are aware of HR-Vs having this issue. Service Tech helping us said he will be contacting corporate offices first then let us know how they will proceed with repairs. We are not sure yet how long we will be without our vehicle. Damage has not been inspected by anyone other than our local Honda dealer as of this time. There were no warning lights or alarms to indicate a fault with anything. We have not spoken with our insurance yet.

STEERING
Steering wheel binds or sticks. Problem occurs whether rolling or at a stop. Can hear audible thump when turning wheel while vehicle is stopped. There are no warning lamps or other symptoms indications. Problem causes inadvertent over-correction to the point of lane departure. Happens at all speeds. Problem worsens when vehicle is loaded down. Problem has existed since delivery. Problem has been reproduced by my dealer who has ordered a new steering rack assembly. Part is on back order so whether this will correct the problem is unknown at this time.

STRUCTURE:BODY
At 12pm on 1/21/24 my back windshield shattered. My car was parked and turned off when the explosion happened. I filed a police report and had a police officer look at my vehicle. I tried to reach Honda but they were closed so I will have to call and file the complaint with them tomorrow morning. I did report it with my insurance to get it fixed but I don’t feel comfortable driving the car anymore especially since it is my primary vehicle used to transport myself and my toddler.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
While our vehicle was parked inside our garage, the rear windshield completely shattered outward, without any impact or object hitting it. The vehicle was parked and off. It was like it exploded. It seems like the glass was manufactured poorly or of an inferior quality than what should be deemed safe for vehicles on the road. It was very scary and unsettling and could have been incredibly dangerous/life threatening if I had been driving with my young child anywhere. The glass would have likely impacted my child or gotten on a car behind me. Incredibly scary!

SEAT BELTS
The front passenger belt stop latching. I called the dealer. The part was on backorder. I have an appointment on Tuesday 1/23/24 to fix the front buckle. I also told them when riding in the car the middle back seat belt dings like someone is back there. There is no one in the car. Now the back middle seat has a green box saying that someone is latched in the buckle. Again, there is no one in the back seat. I cannot safely put my kids in this car. The only warning that the front buckle gave was the seat belt was not latched. It would not hook on so my oldest would have to sit in the back seat.
