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

I RECEIVED A LETTER IN MARCH SAYING THERE IS AN AIRBAG RECALL AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE PARTS WERE READY. I HAVE SINCE RECEIVED ESTIMATED THREE ROBO-CALLS SAYING MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED DUE TO A DANGEROUS AIRBAG ISSUE AND TO CONTACT A DEALER OR HONDA HEADQUARTERS. I CONTACTED THE DEALER WHO SAID THERE IS NO PART YET AND NOT TO WORRY . I AM CONCERNED AND ANNOYED ABOUT THESE ALARMING NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT AN IMPORTANT, MAYBE CRITICAL, YET THERE IS NO PART. THIS IS MUCH LONGER THAN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. *TR

WHILE DRIVING NORTH ON ROUTE 43 APPROACHING ROUTE 60 IN LAKE FORREST, ILLINOIS ON NOVEMBER 5, 2019 MY HONDA CR-V SUDDENLY STOPPED. AND, I MEAN COMPLETELY STOPPED.FOR NO APPARENT REASON. FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO VEHICLES BEHIND ME. I WAS ONLY TRAVELING AT 35 MPH. I BELIEVE THIS OCCURRENCE WOULD BE CLASSIFIED AS A FALSE POSITIVE ERROR. IT WAS RAINING LIGHTLY AT THE TIME. MY ONLY WITNESS IS MY WIFE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR PRIMARILY TO DRIVE MY GRANDCHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND NOW HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN IT'S ABILITY FOR SAFETY. THIS PROBLEM HASN'T OCCURRED AGAIN SINCE NOVEMBER 2019 BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN TRUST OUR LIVES TO A COMPUTER IN CHARGE OF THIS CAR. THIS IS A COMPUTER PROGRAMMING ERROR THAT WILL ULTIMATELY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LOSS OF LIFE. OTHER COMPUTER ASSISTED DRIVING VEHICLES DON'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND THEY MUST HAVE TESTED AND OVERCOME THIS SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ISSUE. DOES TESLA OR MOBILEYE HAVE THIS ISSUE? IS IT ONLY HONDA? *TR

ENGINE OIL LEVEL INCREASED BY 1/8 IN ON ONLY 20% OIL LIFE USED (APPROX 2200 MILES USED). THE DIPSTICK SMELLS AS IF FUEL IS IN THE OIL. ENGINE COMPONENTS INCREASINGLY ARE GETTING LOUDER-- THE RATTLE OF THE CAMS ATOP THE ENGINE. OIL USED WAS SYNTHETIC MOBIL ONE + NEW WIK FILTER. THE CAR HAD THE PCV VALVE REPLACED, BY OWNER, ON A MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATION AT 30,000 MI. CAR HAS 57,879 MI. CAR WILL BE INVESTIGATED BY DEALER ON MAY 19. CAR STILL UNDER FULL POWER TRAIN GUARANTEE. *TR

I HAVE A HONDA CR-V THAT WAS ISSUED A SAFETY RECALL ON IT'S AIRBAGS BACK IN EARLY MARCH OF 2020. IN THE RECALL IT WAS STATED THAT THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM, AND THEY WOULD UPDATE ME WHEN THERE WAS ONE. I HAVE NOT HAD COMMUNICATION WITH HONDA SINCE THE INITIAL RECALL LETTER. IN THE LETTER, IT WAS STATED THAT IF I HAD NOT BEEN UPDATED ON THE STATUS OF THE RECALL AFTER 30 DAYS, I SHOULD FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE NHTSA. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS STILL NO SOLUTION FOR THIS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS RECALL, AND IT HAS NOW BEEN SEVERAL MONTHS SINCE THE INITIAL RECALL NOTICE. I'M NOT IN A POSITION TO GO OUT AND BUY A NEW CAR, GIVEN THE CRISIS THE WORLD IS CURRENTLY FACING. I STILL USE THIS CAR TO GET TO AND FROM WORK (ALBEIT VERY CAUTIOUSLY), THOUGH, I AM NOT COMFORTABLE HAVING ANY PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE AT THIS TIME. THIS SEEMS UNREASONABLE OF HONDA TO ASK THEIR FAITHFUL CONSUMERS (THIS IS MY SECOND HONDA) TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY A GRENADE STRAPPED TO THE STEERING WHEEL, WITH NO REMEDY AVAILABLE WITHIN THE NEAR FUTURE.

II PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2019 WHEN IT HAD ABOUT 142,000 MILES ON ODOMETER. RECENTLY WITH ABOUT 146,000 MILES ON ODOMETER THE RIGHT FRONT DOOR STARTED UNLOCKING IMMEDIATELY AFTER LOCKING IT. THERE IS NO WAY TO LOCK THE DOOR, AS IT ALWAYS UNLOCKS ITSELF. IT UNLOCKS WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR STATIONARY, WITH OR WITHOUT THE IGNITION ON OR OFF OR THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION OR NOT.. OTHER DOORS STAY LOCKED, INCLUDING THE REAR LIFTGATE.

AS OF MAY 13, I HAVE HAD TO RETURN MY LEASED 2017 CR-V TO THE DEALERSHIP FOUR (4) TIMES FOR THE SAME REASON - THE BATTERY WOULD NOT WORK , HENCE THE ENGINE DID NOT START. THESE BREAKDOWNS OCCURRED AT : 9573 MILES, 9993 MILES, 17315 MILES AND MOST RECENTLY 21,703 MILES. EACH EVENT OCCURRED WHILE THE AUTO WAS TURNED OFF. THIS HAS COST UNDUE HARDSHIP. WITH THE MOST RECENT EVENT, I WAS VERBALLY TOLD THE PROBLEM IS MY FAULT - SINCE I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE ENOUGH !!! I SHOULD INVEST IN SOMETHING CALLED A " TRICKLE CHARGER " AND PLUG THE VEHICLE IN DURING THE EVENING HOURS !!! QUITE INCREDIBLE! I MORE THEN ONCE LOUDLY VOICED MY CONCERNS. THE BASIC ATTITUDE HAS BEEN " YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN BUDDY "!!! HOPEFULLY, THE DEALERSHIP WILL BE CAUTIONED TO AVOID FALSEHOODS AND TO LEVEL WITH ITS CUSTOMER. MY WIFE AND I ARE BOTH SENIOR CITIZENS . WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO NAVIGATE THE VIRUS EPIDEMIC AS BEST WE CAN! WE HAD TO DRIVE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PICK UP OUR " TAINTED " LEASED PRODUCT WITHOUT SO MUCH AS AN APOLOGY. QUITE INCREDIBLE ! MY COMPUTER IS QUITE ELDERLY - HENCE I CANNOT FORWARD DOCUMENTATION BUT I CAN CERTAINLY MAIL SUCH. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR MUCH MORE INFORMATION CONCERNING THIS FAULTY PRODUCT. *TR
