STRUCTURE:BODY, VISIBILITY/WIPER
From the day I drove my brand new 2025 Honda CR-V off the lot after purchasing it, in the driver's side rear view mirror, the mirror vibrates terribly as soon as you are going 35/45+mph. The faster the speed, the worse the vibration is. You can visible see the mirror glass shaking. It is very dangerous at all times to not be able to see with this side mirror. It is especially dangerous on the highways because it distorts the view so greatly and also makes me feel disoriented and dizzy when I try to use it to safely navigate the roads. If the mirror glass were to fly off, this would lead to an even greater danger. Yes, this problem has been confirmed by a dealer. It has been brought to Saratoga Honda and they replaced the entire mirror unit. The second unit had the same defect, and did the same thing. They stated if they replaced it a third time, it would not make a difference. They also drove another CRV just like mine off the lot and the mirror did the same thing. This is an issue that needs to be turned into a recall. It is not okay that Honda produced vehicles with something so unsafe, with no ability to fix it.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Hi pressure fuel pump stopped working while driving. My mechanic gave me the defective part in case someone wanted to inspect it. At the time of failure, the car suddenly entered "limp" mode and fortunately I was able to pull over to the side. When I tried to get moving, the engine jerked and sputtered to a maximum speed of about 15 mph. All the lights on the dashboard lit up and flashed. Warnings for many different types of problems displayed, but nothing specific about the fuel pump. There were no warnings previous to the sudden part failure. On the phone, my mechanic immediately told me that it was likely a well-known problem with Honda CRV's. He'd repaired other CRVs with the same problem. A Honda agent told me on the phone "yes" this is a common problem. However she said my CRV is not within the range of VIN numbers under recall. Therefore, I am not eligible for reimbursement at this time. That Honda Agent told me to submit my problem through the NHTSA website and then keep checking to see if my VIN number is eventually within the numbers. Once that is the case I will be reimbursed. I had my trusted mechanic make the repair, per Honda's direction (they said since I'm far away from a dealership and the car is driveable, just have it repaired by my mobile mechanic). Since the repair was completed, it is working fine although I now average 3 mpg less than before the repair.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
The radar sensor on our Honda 2025 CR-V was stolen. It is apparently a very easy thing to do and has been rampant in many regions of the country. It takes about 30 seconds to take from the car, and costs thousands to replace. Honda has known about this for several years but has done nothing to fix the problem or help owners fix the problem. They did not tell us about the potential problem when we were buying the car. They have instructed their dealerships to NOT help customers solve the issue despite solutions available on the market from reputable companies. If one tries to go this route, Honda will void the warranty on the sensor. I'm reporting this to hopefully put some pressure on Honda to remedy this situation for all of us victims.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Driving on an [XXX] near St Pauls NC at 70mph the engine shut off. Annunciator came on stop now engine is quitting. Check engine light came on. We were in a construction zone so there were barriers blocking the shoulders. We were in a high risk of someone behind ramming into us. We coasted to the exit which was 1/2 mile away. We exited at 2mph. We were very fortunate that no one from the rear, hit us. There was a tractor trailer behind us who put his flashers on, realizing the issue stayed behind us to keep cars from hitting us. All warning lights came on, first engine then all of the safety warnings. Car would not run. It was towed to a Honda dealer in Fayetteville. Honda analyzed the issue as a misfire resulting in engine damage. They performed a boroscope and found 3 piston cracked. Honda after 3 weeks installed a new short block and fuel injectors. Car was one year old with 6280 miles. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I am not the owner of a 2024 or 2025 Honda CR-V but I am regularly blinded by their new dual low beam LED headlamps on the road. These lamps are shockingly bright and exceed the glare of some other vehicles with high beams on. I suspect the beam pattern of these lamps is poorly designed and can blind other motorists either in an oncoming traffic flow or when the CR-V driver is following a vehicle and blinding them via rear view and side view mirrors. Photo attached of example headlamps and comments from CRV owners acknowledging they glare oncoming drivers.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
I got to know that I have two recalls open since October 2024. I called Honda campaign to follow up on the recalls as and I opened a case with them on [XXX]. The case number is [XXX]. I was referred to the dealer and when I contacted the dealer who sold my car, he said that he is repairing cars based on a waitlist and that parts are not available with them for both recalls. This car with its current condition is not safe as it is since I have 3 kids who frequently ride the car and one of then is a one year old baby and I saw similar cars went in serious fire due to those recalls. I need help to have this resolved ASAP. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

VISIBILITY/WIPER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Driving this vehicle during rain or snow is very unsafe for visibility reasons. 1. Th wiper blade does not fully clean the windshield. There is a very large corner on the bottom left over the driver dashboard that is left unwiped preventing the driver from seeing the yellow line in the road or anything for that matter. 2. In general The heating system does not operate properly and maintain the proper temperature that it is set too. 3. The heating system Related to this complaint is the front dashboard defrost heater that would defrost the window or keep it unfogged while driving. This does not work. At all! When the temp drops outside during rain or snow the Heat needs to be put on full Blast high heat just to defrost the window and keep it clear while driving. Meanwhile the car is about 80 Degrees inside and very hot. 4. It seems that the vent along the dashboard under the windshield is not long enough or wide enough and is very dangerous. Please note, I am [XXX] ” and my visibility while driving is a 3 out of 10 and I’m tall. I can’t imagine a shorter person being able to see at all. I will not drive my brand new car in inclement weather that is how unsafe this is. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Traveling interstate at 80 mph 2023 Honda CRV Hybrid with 15,500 miles had a critical power failure, and warning lights to stop vehicle as soon as safe. We had the car towed and went to Honda dealer in (Community Honda) in Lafayette, LA (traveling). They state a fuel injector failed I have seen multiple social media posts of a similar experience, but have not seen a recall listed. I wanted to bring this to your attention. In Louisiana, there are a lot of bridges to navigate and this could have been a very dangerous situation of it would have happened on a bridge. Luckily, it happened on the interstate.

STEERING
The steering wheel of my vehicle becomes tight while driving and sticks when turned, especially at higher speeds. At slower speeds, a slight turn to the left or right will result in increased resistance and a “bump” as the steering comes back to center. At higher speeds, the steering wheel is tight and almost feels stuck at center. Once the wheel is turned is will briefly stick in that position and has to forcefully be returned to center. This sometimes results in almost overcorrecting while driving. The steering is loose when the car is in park or at a stop, but once in motion there is a distinct difference, to the point of causing a sore neck/shoulders from holding the wheel.
