STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Sticky steering making it difficult to keep the car going straight as the steering adjustments can't be gradual. This occurs in straight lines, gradual turns and around tight corners. Issue starts around 30 mph and gradually gets worse as speed increases. As of now, this is resulting in the dealer replacing the rack and pinion assembly.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Twice in the last five weeks upon accelerating from a stop my car hard braked all by itself with sufficient force to push the driver and passenger very hard toward the front dashboard. One of the times I thought the air bags might have gone off. If someone had been behind I probably would have been rear-ended. In neither of the cases I received any fault or warning lights or indicators nor did I touch the brake pedal.

STEERING
With the lane assist TURNED OFF, the steering wheel is jerked one direction or another. It makes a constant working of the wheel for steering, particularly at highway speeds. You feel like you are constantly fighting the car’s steering. It is a jerk every few seconds that you have to fight to correct. 4031 miles on the new car purchased in May 2023. Definitely feels dangerous.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was driving on a 2 lane highway, in the right travel lane, at approximately 60 MPH. There were no vehicles immediately in front of me in this lane, however, there was a line of stopped vehicles in the breakdown lane (to the right of my vehicle), because the off-ramp was backed up onto the highway. My forward collision warning system flashed BRAKE, 3 times on the dashboard. I took my foot off of the gas pedal, and before I could apply the brake, the car automatically slammed on the brake. My car stopped in the middle of the highway. Thankfully I was not rear ended by the car behind me. I took my car to OCEAN HONDA OF HANOVER, MA. They said everything is in working order, and "this just happens sometimes." I am not able to turn off this feature! I read a report (Consumer Reports Feb 2022) stating that you have been notified of approximately 300 of these instances with the 2018 HONDA CR-V. There is no recall. Are you still looking into this?

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Driving down the highway and heard a loud “boom”. Thought it was a tire blowout, but realized that the sunroof exploded. I did not hit anything. The temperature was approximately 70 degrees. Was the car the day before and did not notice any damage to the sunroof. Luckily the cover was closed so no glass fell inside the vehicle compartment. Reading of multiple occasion of this occurring to Honda vehicles.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
Multiple engine failure codes appeared on dashboard. Took vehicle for inspection and diagnoses states code P0172 Fuel system too rich. The service technician recommended fuel injector replacement due to faulty injectors. Service advisor did not file a warranty claim on my behalf despite my request to do so. When I called Portfolio Protection, they informed me that the technician did not call in the claim. Portfolio Protection Ever Drive 250 Limited Powertrain Coverage has an exception for injectors listed in the Mechanical paragraph as follows: Mechanical: This Limited Warranty does not provide coverage for service adjustments/cleaning, carburetor, throttle body assembly (except injectors), contaminated fuel system, water ingestion, air conditioning recharge, refrigerant, coolant, battery cables, belts, hoses, brakes (front hubs, drums, shoes, lining, disc rotors and pads), exhaust system, (...) etc. Portfolio Protection and Barber Honda Service Advisor will not acknowledge the exception for injectors clearly stated in the contract. I took the steps required in the contract to file a claim and spoke to multiple adjusters at Portfolio Protection and they refused to acknowledge the exception for injectors. Honda has extended the warranty on fuel injectors for other vehicles due to faulty injectors and incorrect installation during the assembly process as stated on Honda Service Bulletin 22-002. This is clearly an ongoing issue with Honda and needs to encompass all vehicles.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
On October 6, I was driving my 2017 Honda CR-V and it automatically slammed on the brakes in the middle of the road. There were no cars in front of me, no pedestrian, nothing. It was a very strong jolt and I was lucky no car crashed into me due to the sudden stop. This had not happened previously. I took the car to a nearby dealership on October 11. The problem could not be replicated by the dealership. At first, the dealership wanted to blame it on a dirty sensor and close the job. Because I had looked at the NHTSA site, I was persistent that they look at the software. They did say they found a bulletin for updates and that the radar system needed one, so they completed it. I am concerned that most car owners may not even know this is a possible issue until it happens to them and that dealerships may not be aware of this issue and write it off to something else because it can't be replicated immediately.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
All dashboard warning lights come on They flash and cycle through. I have reported to Don Wessell Honda and Pineger Honda in Springfield, MO and Honda of Jefferson City, Jefferson City, MO. This stated sporadically in 2021 and is constant in 2023. I have paid for replacement parts based on the best guess of the problem. Scanning tool does not show codes. First alternator, then oxygen sensor and now injectors. Honda believes injectors are the problem. It is over $1,000.00 to replace them. I have found numerous people having the same issue on line. I believe these injectors should be covered under a recall. They are dangerous!!! When the flashing lights go off the car works fine; once they turn on, randomly, the car spurts and dies out. I have no power to drive. I have to manually turn off car and restart it to get power. This is extremely dangerous in the middle of the road. I purchased this vehicle new and had to have the computer replaced soon after I purchased it. It is beyond frustrating, expensive, and extremely dangerous to not have your car perform when your driving down the road. Please recall these injectors before I or someone else gets hurt or killed by the car losing power suddenly when driving. Thank you sincerely.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
I parked the car and left it running. I exited the car and left the front door standing open. I unbuckled my children and helped my four year old out of the car. I went back to the driver's door, leaned in with my right knee on the seat, and took out the keys. My left leg was still on the ground outside the vehicle. After a few moments the car started rolling. I was dragged backwards down the driveway and into the street. I was able to brace myself between the door handle and the steering wheel, keeping the door from pushing shut and shoving my leg under the car. This also allowed me to maneuver my right leg off the driver's seat and slam on the brake. I managed to keep my leg from getting caught under the wheel, but it was an extremely near thing. As far as I know at the moment I only have bruising and scrapes/road burn. If I had leaned in with my left leg, been wearing sandals, or lacked upper body strength I would've been unable to stop myself from getting dragged under the car and run over. If my 6 year old had been a bit faster stepping out of the car he would've been knocked over by his door and potentially dragged under as well. We both could have been seriously injured or died if this had gone even slightly differently. I'm extremely lucky and extremely terrified.
