ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Was parked on side of road. No previous warning lights. Car would not start. Unable to put on hazard lights in dark on highway. Had to be towed. All dash wearing lights on only. Was at dealer 2 months prior due to all dash lights on and power failure. Replaced battery and car was re coded per dealer. Prior to that all dash lights came on when car turned off and had to disconnect battery cable every night. Now car does not turnover when jumped and battery charged. Dealer thinks might be a smart unit and parasitic battery drain. Car only has 42000 miles on it. No hazards, worried about being rear ended. i What if there was an abrupt power failure while driving. Living in Wisconsin what if stranded in freezing temps. Unreliable car due to manufacture defects.

STEERING
The steering system recently began to have a sticky feeling after driving straight for a minute or so. After the release that requires extra pressure, the steering is fine until the wheel is going straight and the stickiness returns. appears to be the same issue that has been noted in Civics. Dealer thinks the same thing and a recall just hasn't been issued yet.

STEERING
Cars steering jolts to the left or right when making minor adjustments at all speeds. Sticky steering. This needs to be addressed and a recall needs to be implemented immediately. This is not safe. When making minor adjustments when steering, there is an obvious wall of resistant that jolts as soon as you overcome that resistance by adding pressure. This can cause serious injury or death due to jolting steering, especially at freeway speeds. Please do something about this issue immediately!!!! 2023 CRV BUILT IN INDIANA MID 2023

STEERING
The vehicle has 54,000 miles and just this week the steering is sticking at the center position and it requires more effort to pull the steering wheel left or right. It’s a constant issue when driving over 40mph! I went on line to several forums and it seems this issue is occurring on 2017-2018 CRV’s with similar mileage of 50k on the vehicle. My VIN isn’t showing a recall yet on this, so I felt it was important to notify the NHTSA because I feel this may lead to a significant safety hazard. I have an appointment next week to have a Honda dealership look into the steering problem. I also saw that several of the CRV owners have spent $5,000 out of pocket to fix the sticking steering! I’m hoping Honda understands my model vehicle is suffering from a significant safety problem and puts out a recall to fix it? Thank you for the incredible work you perform to keep us safer from manufacturing defects!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Rear doors will not open when getting out or opening. I changed batteries in key fob, but didn't help. 12/27/23 all lights on dash went black and stayed off for about 5 miles. I've had the brakes stop me and I was thrown forward hard. My main worry is if my electrical system goes out while driving, will my car lock up and cause an accident?

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
My 2021 sunroof shattered out of no where when i was driving, nothing fell on it and no cars nearby so it was not rocks. I think this should be looked into because there are many owners who have reported the same issue. I contact my local dealer and they were in denial but it is very dangerous since the glass from the sunroof was falling on me while i was driving it could have caused a major accident and should definitely be looked into. Sometimes when I turn on my car the dashboard flickers where you are not able to read the screen another safety concern if i cant see certain information. My car only has 8000 miles on it any my battery is still good so I am not sure why there is all these issues.
