ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Honda CR-V 2018. Faulty camshaft. About August 7. While driving I had car act sluggish. Noticed my dashboard lights on. About a few weeks later about Sept 17 my car changed gears on me while driving. Sept 30 2022 had diagnostics done at dealer. I have a text. Per McDavid Honda of Plano TX. “We're done with the diagnostics, your vehicle had an intermediate failure on your Camshaft position sensor.” Avail for inspection. The sensor can cause safety risks as the car stalling while driving. Engine misfire. Transmission shifting issues. Car may not start. Car can jerk forward while driving as a result of an improper amount of fuel being injected into cylinders. Poor acceleration. First appeared in August. Had dealer review on about 8/25/22. Said they fixed it but it wasn’t fixed. 9/30/22 had dealer do diagnostics testing. Again they said it was fixed. It was not fixed. Having dealer look at it again 10/3/22. Warning signs include sensor lights on dashboard: engine light, emission system problem, brake system fail, parking sensor fail, tire pressure system problem, electric parking brake problem, auto high beam problem, road departure system problem, adaptive cruise control problem, collision mitigation system problem, hill start assist problem, vehicle stability problem, power steering system problem, brake hold system problem,

POWER TRAIN
When I tried to reverse the car the car went forward. I put the car in park and tried to reverse again the car went forward again, I tried one more time and the car went forward while in reverse. I shut the car off and gave it a few minutes, I turned it back on and tried one more time and the car finally reversed. R was indicated on the dashboard and the reverse camera was on while the car was driving forward.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was just driving on Ventura blvd, a busy street, it was very sunny out and suddenly for no reason, as I am driving around 35 MPH at least... the car fully brakes. everything goes flying - my neck is now sore, as is my upper back and shoulders... if someone had been behind me they would have hit me. It's pure luck it didn't cause an accident. This has never happened before and I want to get rid of this car now...

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Another problem that has been reported with the Honda CR-V and HR-V is poor paint quality. The paint may chip, fade, or peel prematurely, especially on exposed areas such as the hood and roof. This can be a cosmetic issue, but it can also lead to rusting and other damage. Went to the Honda in Valley Stream NY and was told by the service manager that because I did not have my car serviced at their dealership, they would not take care of the painting issue. When questioned why they stated that they have a "Good Will" policy which would have covered the paint defect had I serviced it there. When I purchased the vehicle, I was never informed of such a policy. They recommend that I bring the vehicle to their collision specialist who stated "this is a known defect," and that he can not do anything without authorization. https://forums.edmunds.com/discussion/41685/honda/cr-v/2016-cr-v-model-paint-peel-off-issue

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Unexplained auto braking. 1st incident Summer 2021. Was approaching intersection with a stop sign with no vehicles behind or in front of my CRV. There was 2 construction metal poles on each side of the intersection. As I approached the cars brake warning light on dash flashed. I tapped brakes to slow down released the brakes and the light returned and car suddenly braked hard before I got to stop sign. Was only going about 15 mph but braking was hard enough to throw me forward in the seat and was caught by the seatbelt. There was nothing in front of the vehicle. Happened again 2 days ago Sept. 2022. Driving on highway at daytime no vehicles in front or rear of my CRV. Brake light started flashing to hit brakes. I applied brakes, but there was nothing in front of me. Because I continued braking the auto brake did not engage this time. Talked to local Hinda dealer was told they have not heard of any issues. If it happened again they recommended getting car inspected. Also have had intermittent issues with radio display suddenly starting to dim and change brightness on its own going from black to bright repeatedly with audible beeping. Was driving car everytime this happened. Happened multiple times over last 2 yrs. Only way to stop it is to stop vehicle, turn it off and then restart it.

LANE DEPARTURE
The contact's daughter owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked during hot weather conditions, the interior of the vehicle would get hot, causing the lane departure feature to malfunction. The lane departure warning light illuminated and beeped. The failure caused distractions while driving and failed to deactivate until the vehicle cooled down. The contact stated that her daughter turned on the A/C to cool down the vehicle to correct the failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the front camera system needed to be replaced; however, replacement parts were on backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,850.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
My sunroof glass spontaneously exploded on a sunny day at 50 mph. There was no road debris or impact with the glass. Ambient temp was 55 degrees, clear sky. The resulting noise and cascade of small glass particles made it quite difficult to maintain control of the vehicle.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
When traveling with the cruise control engaged, the vehicle will suddenly begin braking with no vehicles or objects in front of the vehicle. It’s occurred multiple occasions and some episodes are a quick braking where it then suddenly accelerates back up to the set speed, and during other episodes I quickly hit the accelerator as I wasn’t sure if it was going to recover itself and I did not want to get rear ended.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
My vehicle activated the brakes hard on its own with no cars close in front of it. This happened twice in the last month. Fortunately, no one was close behind me! I took my car to my local Honda dealership today. They checked it out and reported that the radar cover was dirty and that possibly caused the problem.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
too frequently the car automatically hard brakes & flashes "BRAKE" on the dash with no collision imminent but has almost caused accidents in doing so. This has happened turning slowly thru a busy intersection, driving moderate speed straight on a dappled sunlit road with no car around, driving in light traffic on a multi-lane highway at higher speeds. I have had the local Honda techs look at it last year and all they could do is ask if I want the sensitivity turned down. What good is the system if one thwarts what it is supposed to actually do?? Also there is no way to clean the front cameras which might have debris causing this. As it is happening more frequently, perhaps a debris collection is precisely the issue. Honda needs to take ownership of this faulty system & fix it!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
On September 21, 2022, was pulling into a parking space at my doctor’s office, had my foot on the brake, and the vehicle accelerated, jumped the curb, and hit a tree. No injuries, no other vehicles, people, or objects involved. Afterwards, the vehicle was driven without incident to the repair shop. Three days before this incident, on September 18th, the brake warning light engaged while I was driving on the freeway. At that time, there were no other vehicles in front of me in my lane. It was an early sunny Sunday morning. I had one other incident during the first year as the owner of this vehicle where the computer screen turned blue and flickered. I had to pull over, turn off my vehicle, wait a few moments, then restart. Everything was fine after that up until this last incident.Vehicle was purchased new, standard maintenance schedule has been followed, and I am the original owner.

POWER TRAIN, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Fuel injectors failed at 45k miles, resulting in PO304 and PO172. Engine dies at speed causing the vehicle to stop and requires a restart to resume acceleration. Problem is intermittent and happens without notice. Dealer confirmed failed fuel injectors. Vehicle stops enters limp mode (0% power, does not respond to accelerator input) at random speeds. vehicle needs full stop and restart to resume driving. Yes, Dealer confirmed fuel injectors are faulty and suggests this is fairly common with this model CRV Yes, Honda will replace the injectors. Suggest the failure is common but not covered under warranty or goodwill repair All dashboard warning lights (Brake System Failure, Parking Brake Failure, Traction Control, Power Steering, Lane Keeping, Malfunction Indicator Lamp, Etc.)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was traveling about 17 MPH when my CRV braked suddenly to a stop on it's own. There was nothing in front of me. Thank goodness no one was behind me because the car stopped with no warning. I was also wearing my seatbelt, which was good because I was thrown forward. There was no prior warning and no lights or other indicators on now. After that the speakers made thudding sounds, were staticy and now the radio will not play. NOt sure what this has to do with the AEB system. The car still drives normal, but I am afraid it is going to happen again. I have made an appointment at the Honda Dealer for them to look at the CRV.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Driving in my neighborhood there is construction work being done, where metal plates have been placed in the road. When driving over these metal plates, I begin to lightly apply brakes as to slow down driving over these metal plates. The Automatic Braking System alerts me to BRAKE in the Notification Center of my dashboard & automatically applies the brakes to a complete stop. This has happened twice now, in the same place of my neighborhood resulting in my seatbelt tightening & the car to jolt myself forward. Eventually this will result in an accident if there is a car traveling behind me the next time I go over these metal plates. This problem has been reported my numerous other drivers of 2016-2020 Honda Vehicles and is currently under investigation. After my research, it has become clear to me that when vehicles are taken to dealerships after these incidents they are returned without any indication of problems with the vehicles. I have a small child and often travel with my dog, unrestrained in my vehicle as most pet owners do and am concerned that if they are in the vehicle the next time this happens & there just so happens to be a car behind me, one or all of us would be hurt. Because Honda is taking its time to address this problem, and issue a recall the dealerships will do nothing about it until that point.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
This did not happen due to an accident. When I park my car and lock the car the passenger door in the front does not stay locked. I have manually locked it and the latch is moving over I believe this is called the Aactuator. I believe there has been a recall and now I see no recalls. This is unsafe for me and it does need to be fixed as it is a issue with how they made the vehicle.
