When turning right, heard popping noise from wheel and right front wheel stuttering action. Upon inspection found right front CV axle joint to BE blown apart and boots torn. This could result in loss of steering power and result in a crash. Mechanic said had 3 other 2018 Honda CR-V's with approximately all the same mileage with the same exact problem. Clearly this is a mechanical defect. What are the odds of the same mechanic having multiple incidents of the same problem in the same model car within the same week? How many other exact incidents across the country is this occurring?

2019 Honda CRV, 37,000 miles. Vehicle applied the Automatic Emergency Braking system while it was IN MOTION at about 30-35 mph. No one was behind me; thankfully, but this could have been a SERIOUS ISSUE if someone was. I drive two small children in this vehicle on a daily basis. I was stunned and scared when the brakes engaged with no warning at such a speed with no obstructions in sight. This was a down hill straight road and no cars parked on either side of the road. Upon googling the issue, I came across the information that this was not a random fluke, but a known safety issues with my year, make and model. I have reported this incident to the dealership (Brandfon Honda, Branford, Connecticut) to Honda Motor Corporation headquarters and here to the NHTSA. I am hoping for a swift review and resolution of this issue. Honda CR-V's and Accords are a very common vehicles so this issue affects a great number of people all over the world.

Air conditioner stopped working in July 2021. Sent to dealer to check as car was under warranty. Dealer performed system diagnostic test. Performed all DTC check: Found code P0441, P04F1 Evap System Purge Flow Malfunction. Performed DTC troubleshooting. Visual inspect purge hoses. No damage. Check evaporation hose no block inside. Holding vacuum. Due to gas tank full. Recommended replace purge valve and recheck. When completed air conditioner worked. Less than a year later air conditioner stopped working again. Same dealer states now is air coolant replacement issue and would cost $475.00 to repair.

- #11474253July 16, 2022FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
This has happened several times since I've owned this vehicle, which I purchased new. Yesterday, July 15, 2022, it happened again. I was driving at approximately 50mph and with no other cars or obstacles near me, the BRAKE light flashed as if I should brake because something was in front of me. Each time this has happened, there is no other vehicle in front of me and no obstacle in the road. It's terrifying because I fear if the automatic braking system kicks in at that speed my car will flip.

- #11474280July 16, 2022STEERING
* Electric steering rack malfunctioned; the replaced part is not available. * I felt unsafe driving the vehicle at highway speed. The steering was very stiff, requiring extra effort to allow lane correction. After enough pressure was applied the vehicle would abruptly move in the direction input by approximately one to two feet. * The problem was diagnosed and confirmed by my local Honda dealership as a failed electric steering rack. The dealership replaced the rack outside of manufacturer warranty. I paid for a new Honda rack and labor to install. * Because there was not an accident, the vehicle was not inspected by the police or insurance. I am not aware if the manufacturer inspected the part that was left at the Honda dealership. * There were no warning lights or messages. Symptoms appeared gradually in March 2022. Driving locally at lower speeds was noticeable but not unsafe. A trip at interstate highway speeds was unsafe and required correction.

- #11473860July 14, 2022TIRES
Purchased brand new Honda 2018 and it came with Hankook 235/60R18 KINERGY GT H436 BW At 30,000 miles all 4 tires need to be replaced. Honda manufacturer and dealer confirmed that this is a known issue. I contacted Hankook manufacturer and was told that although the 235/60R18 KINERGY GT H436 have a 70,000 mile warranty, the 235/60R18 KINERGY GT H436 tires that come with the new car are designed to only last 30,000 miles out of the usual 70,000. Hankook deliberately engineered their tires to fail at 30,000 putting my life and the life of my family in danger in order to generate a profit. When purchasing my new car I was under the impression (based on the Hankook manufacturer's website) that my new tires would be covered by the 70,000 mile warranty and would thus last more than just 30,000. All my other new cars, the tires lasted well over the warranty that they initially came with. This is the first time that I have ever experienced this. This clearly has nothing do to with my driving pattern, considering that the manufacturer CONFIRMED that they engineer new car tires to FAIL at 30,000 miles.

air conditioning temperature does not work. no matter what degree, the hot air stays the same, including the lowest degree on the air conditioner register "low". There are no warning lights displayed and there are no leaks detected. I am seeing many other complaints like this and mentions of recalls, but I cannot find a recall notification anywhere. I have less than 26,000 miles on my 2017 car.

One time, a short time ago the car did break briefly on its own. Again with No obstruction in front! Yesterday the vehicle at 45mph broke on its own with the BRAKE warning flashing and warning sounds blaring. Again No vehicles or obstructions near by. Vehicle is going to the dealership tomorrow, July 24,2022 for diagnostic inspection.

7-12-22 I was driving on I-70 east in Maryland--3 lanes. Car ahead of me was at least 6 lengths ahead. My BRAKE light flashed on my dashboard, and then the brakes were applied by the system. I was thrown forward in my seat and a car almost hit me from behind. I called dealership and they will look at system next week.
