ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
THE REASON FOR THIS REPORT IS THAT WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MILES PER HOUR IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE. MY ENGINE JUST DIED AS IF THE KEY WAS TURNED OFF. I COASTED OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT I WAS NOT IN A FASTER LANE OF THIS FOUR LANE INTERSTATE, AS THIS COULD HAVE VERY WELL CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. AFTER I WAS STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER MY IGNITION WAS STILL IN THE ON POSITION. I TRIED TO RESTART MY ENGINE AND IT STARTED SO I PROCEEDED ON. I TOOK IT TO MY HONDA DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE. THEY PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER PLUS TEST DROVE IT AND SAID THE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND POSSIBLY BEING INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I CHECKED AN AUTOMOTIVE WEBSITE FORUM AND NOTICED A FEW OTHER PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME VEHICLE HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THEIR DEALERS COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, EITHER. HAS ANYONE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO THE NHTSA BEFORE? DT

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DRUM, AIR BAGS
THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON SO I CONTACTED THE DEALER. THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR. I HAVEN'T HAD ANYMORE PROBLEMS WITH IT, BUT IT WAS ONLY 4 DAYS AGO. I HAVE BEEN READING OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE SRS LIGHT AND I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS GONNA BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED THAT THE AIR BAGS WON'T DEPLOY IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT. AS FOR THE BRAKES. I KEEP HEARING A POPPING NOISE EVERY TIME I BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPACE OR THE DRIVEWAY. I HAVE NOT CONTACTED THE DEALER, BUT AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, I AM GOING TO DO THIS. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A DEDICATED HONDA LOVER AND I AM DISAPPOINTED TO HEAR ABOUT ALL THAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE I HAVE PURCHASED WITH MY HARD EARNED MONEY. DT

TIRES, AIR BAGS
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE BLEWOUT, CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL OF HER VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WENT INTO THE MEDIAN AND BECAME AIRBORNE (ROLLING OVER SEVERAL TIMES) ABOUT 4-5 MORE TIMES ON THE GROUND, HIT A SEMI-TRUCK TRAVELING ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD, FINALLY COMING TO A REST. ALSO, WITH THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT ON THE SIDES OF THE VEHICLE, PARTICULARLY THE DRIVER SIDE, IT WOULD SEEM TO BE STRONG ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE THE SIDE AIRBAGS, YET THE SAFTEY FEATURE DID NOT PERFORM, BRIDGESTONE DUELER H/T. *SCC

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:PARK/NEUTRAL START INTERLOCK SWITCH
WHILE I WAS SHOPPING, MY PARKED CRV POPPED OUT OF GEAR, GOING FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL. IT THEN ROLLED BACKWARDS INTO ANOTHER PARKED VEHICLE. I LEFT MY CRV IN PARK, AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE REMOVED THE KEY UNLESS IT WAS IN PARK. HONDA READILY AGREES THIS TO BE THE CASE. HONDA HAS TORN MY CAR APART, SEARCHING FOR THE CAUSE, AND COME UP WITH NOTHING. SUBSEQUENTLY, I HAVE SEEN MANY NEWS REPORTS OF HONDA'S "POPPING" OUT OF GEAR, AND I AM AFRAID. I DRIVE A TREACHEROUS MOUNTAIN/CANYON ROAD TO AND FROM WORK EACH DAY; I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN ON THAT ROAD, FOR ALL REPORTS INDICATE THAT THE DRIVER LOSES CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT HAPPENS. I AM THANKFUL THAT MY CRV WAS PARKED WHEN IT POPPED OUT OF GEAR.

SUSPENSION
CRV NOTICEABLY & CONTINUOUSLY PULLS TO THE RIGHT WHEN DRIVING AT CONSTANT OR VARIOUS SPEEDS & ROAD CONDITIONS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE I TOOK DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE. THIS 'PULL' IS NOT THE INITIAL TORQUE PULL THAT IS COMMON TO FRONT WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES. THE HONDA DEALER RECOGNIZES PROBLEM & USING SOLUTIONS MADE BY HONDA TECH LINE COULD NOT FIX PROBLEM AFTER SEVERAL SERVICE ATTEMPTS. ALTHOUGH CRV HAS BEEN ALIGNED TO HONDA SPECS (3 TIMES), HAD THE FRONT TIRES SWITCHED & EVENTUALLY HAD ALL 4 TIRES REPLACED, THE CAR STILL PULLS TO THE RIGHT IN 3-4 SECONDS. THE HONDA SPEC IS 6 SECONDS. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE I HAVE TO ALWAYS FIRMLY PULL ON THE LEFT SIDE OF STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP THE CAR IN ITS DRIVING LANE. HONDA HAS STATED TO ME THAT THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE BUT SENSITIVE TO ROAD CROWN.*AK
