ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK BUZZES FOR ABOUT 1-2 SECOND WHEN I LOCK THE CAR. . IT DOES NOT MATTER WHETHER YOU USE THE REMOTE OR LOCK THE CAR FROM INSIDE. I ALSO HAVE IT WHERE THE DOOR LOCKS AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED. I THINK THIS IS THE HONDA BROKEN DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. THERE'S A SMALL MOTOR INSIDE THE ACTUATOR THAT GEARS TO A SMALL RACK. WHEN THE RACK REACHES THE END OF TRAVEL, IT HITS A RUBBER BUMPER AND SHUTS OFF THE MOTOR. WHEN THE RUBBER BUMPER WEARS OUT, THE RACK GOES TOO FAR AND THE NOISE YOU HEAR IS THE MOTOR GEAR GRINDING AGAINST THE END OF THE RACK. THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY RELOCKING ITSELF HAPPENS WHEN THE RACK BOUNCES BACKWARDS AND HITS THE LOCK CONTACTS. CONTACTED WITH THE DEALER, THEY SAID I NEED TO PAY OUT OF MY POCKET TO FIX IT. I THINK THIS IS MANUFACTURER'S PROBLEM. THEY SHOULD FIX IT.

STEERING
TOOK CAR TO HONDA FOR ROUTINE SERVICE. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE STEERING RACK WAS LEAKING AND "THE FLUID IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE". WE WERE QUOTED ~ $1280 FOR THE REPAIR. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH CR-VS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED BY HONDA THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH HEATER CORES ON THESE CARS. HEATER WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME PLUGGED AND NOT WORK. HEAT IS SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER ON DRIVERS SIDE VENTS THAN PASSENGER SIDE. MY COMPLAINT IS WITHOUT HEAT TO DEFROST WINDSHIELD IN WINTER CONDITIONS IT WILL BECOME A VISIBILITY ISSUE DUE TO NOT HAVING THE ABILITY TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD. AND POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH. HONDA IS VERY MUCH AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, YET IS CHARGING CUSTOMERS THAT ARE OUT OF WARRANTY TO RECTIFY THE ISSUE. I HAVE 46K MILES ON MY CAR AND AM HAVING HEATER CORE ISSUES? I NOTICED THE ISSUE EARLY ON AND IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. HAD I OF KNOWN WHAT IT WAS I WOULD HAVE HAD IT FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. HONDA TSB NUMBER IS 14-063. TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL FROM PASSENGER SIDE TO DRIVER SIDE IN MY CAR IS 40+ DEGREES.

TAKATE RECALL - I WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION HAS NOT EFFECTIVELY ENSURED THAT ITS INDEPENDENTLY OWNED/OPERATED DEALERSHIPS ARE ADDRESSING ALL AFFECTED DRIVERS OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES. DRIVERS WHO ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 ARE NOT ABLE TO RENT CARS FROM ENTERPRISE RENTAL SERVICES, WHICH IS BEING USED AS THE SOLE ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION OPTION BY HENDRICK HONDA, WOODBRIDGE, VA. HENDRICK HONDA DOES NOT HAVE LOANER VEHICLES. THEREFORE, ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 WHO DRIVES ONE OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES HAS NO OPTIONS TO GET ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION. OBVIOUSLY, THERE ARE OTHER DEALERS IN THE NOVA AREA, BUT IN A CALL TO THREE DEALERS, THEY HAVE RUN OUT OF LOANER CARS. MY FAMILY IS AFFECTED BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER, AGE 17, CANNOT DRIVE THE OTHER FAMILY VEHICLE DUE TO HER SMALL SIZE AND THE LARGE SIZE OF THE OTHER FAMILY VEHICLE. IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT SINCE A 17 YEAR OLD WAS A PERSON WHO WAS KILLED IN THE AIRBAG INCIDENT THAT, IN PART, PROMPTED THIS AIRBAG RECALL, THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION AND ALL ITS INDEPENDENT DEALERS WOULD BE EXPECTED TO HAVE APPROPRIATE ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS FOR ALL DRIVERS, NOT JUST THOSE OVER THE AGE OF 18. I HAVE FILED A SERVICE CLAIM WITH THE HONDA CORPORATION AND HAVE REQUESTED THAT THE SERVICE DIRECTOR FROM HENDRICK HONDA, FROM WHOM I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, TO WHOM I WAS REFERRED TO GET THE ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION, AND WITH WHOM I HAVE DONE BUSINESS FOR WELL OVER 5 YEARS, CALL ME TO DISCUSS THIS PROBLEM IN MORE DETAIL. HOWEVER, I FEEL THAT THE LARGER ISSUE IS THAT HONDA AND ITS DEALERS HAVE NOT LOOKED AT ITS ENTIRE CUSTOMER BASE TO ENSURE THAT ALL POTENTIAL DRIVERS OF THESE CARS ARE COVERED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR FAILED, COULD NOT UNLOCK OR LOCK DOORS, VERY SCARY. COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY I COULD NOT GET OUT OF CAR. THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED. ALSO PASSENGER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED AS WELL. THIS WAS REALLY SCARY THAT HONDA HAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT WAS SETTLED BUT DID NOT INCLUDE 2010 CR-V. HAD TO GET THIS FIXED AS IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY CONCERN THAT HONDA DID NOT WANT TO INCLUDE FIXING THIS ISSUE IN THERE SETTLEMENT AND NOW MAYBE THE NHTSA MIGHT LOOK INTO THIS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE CAR OPERATES ON A KEYLESS IGNITION, AND USES PUSH BUTTON START. THE ISSUE IS, ONCE THE CAR IS RUNNING, IT WILL STAY RUNNING WITHOUT THE COMPUTER FAB KEY IN THE CAR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, I CAN LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN AND WALK OUT OF THE CAR WITH THE KEY IN HAND AND IT STAYS RUNNING, A CHILD OR SOMEONE CAN GET IN THE CAR AND SHIFT THE GEAR LEVER CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY. ALSO THERE WAS NO WARNING WHEN I LEFT THE CAR WITH THE COMPUTER KEY IN MY POCKET AND NO FLASHING OF LIGHTS OR BLINKING OR HORN NOISE. THIS IS A VIOLATION OF THE NHTSA LAWS THAT NO VEHICLE SHOULD BE RUNNING ONCE THE KEY HAS LEFT THE CAR. WELL THIS VEHICLE CONTINUES TO RUN WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE CAR, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE VEHICLE SHOULD SHUT OFF AFTER THE KEY HAS LEFT THE CAR. THIS PUSH BUTTON START IS CHEAP AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. THE CAR SHOULD SHUTOFF WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE CAR. I LEFT THE CAR WITH THE DOOR OPEN AND KEY IN MY POCKET, THE CAR FAILED TO SHUT OFF BECAUSE THE PUSH BUTTON HAS TO BE PRESSED TO SHUT OFF. THE CAR IS SUPPOSE TO SHUT OFF WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE CAR PER NHTSA RULES AND REGULATIONS

POWER TRAIN
THE HONDA CRV 2010, I HAVE HAD ISSUES WHERE THE AWD HAS NOT KICKED IN AND THE CAR HAS GONE INTO SLIDS AND OVERSTEER WHERE IT DID NOT STABLIZE THE CAR FROM SLIDING. GOING ABOUT 10 MPH AND THE CAR SLID IN THE SNOW, THE TIRES WERE GOOD AND IT SEEMS THE AWD IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IN EUROPE HONDA ISSUED A SOFTWARE UPGRADE FOR THIS ISSUE BUT BLATENTLEY REFUSES TO ISSUE THE PROPER SOFTWARE UPGRADE FOR THE AWD SYSTEM FOR THIS CAR. HERE IS THE LINK A HTTPS://WWW.CARTHROTTLE.COM/POST/ATTENTION-ALL-HONDA-OWNERS-YOUR-4X4-CRV-MIGHT-NOT-BE-A-4X4-AFTER-ALL/ AFTER THIS POSTING HONDA ISSUED AND UPDATE FOR EUROPE BUT NOT THE US. HONDA IS PUTTING DRIVERS LIVES AT RISK BY NOT UPDATING THE AWD SYSTEM FOR NOT ONLY HONDA CRV 2010 MODELS BUT ALL FUTURE MODELS. THE AWD SYSTEM HAS FAILED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.

TAKATA RECALL IN THE WAKE OF THE RECENT DEATH OF A TEEN IN TEXAS BECAUSE OF A FAULTY TAKATA AIRBAG, I WANTED TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO INFORM YOU ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE RECALL. I RECEIVED NUMEROUS NOTICES FROM HONDA INFORMING ME ABOUT TWO AIRBAGS THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN MY HONDA CRV. WITH THE FIRST NOTICE I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO MY PASSENGER AIRBAG REPAIR. I FELT THAT WASN'T AN ISSUE SINCE MY WIFE HAD ANOTHER CAR AND I HARDLY HAD PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. I RECENTLY RECEIVED NOTICE THAT MY DRIVER AIRBAG IS NOW IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT AND SINCE MOVING TO SAN DIEGO AFTER THE BIRTH OF MY DAUGHTER MY WIFE AND I NOW USE THE THE SAME CAR WITH MY DAUGHTER IN HER CAR SEAT. THIS RECENT NOTICE WAS DISCONCERTING SO I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO CALL AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO. DIRECTLY TO SECURE TEMPORARY ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION PER THEIR RECALL NOTICE. THIS ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE IS POTENTIALLY DEADLY AND WITH MY NEW DAUGHTER I DID NOT WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES ON HER SAFETY. AFTER SPEAKING WITH JESSICA ON 03/19/2016 AT 10:45AM I WAS GIVEN THE CASE ID# 04523834 AND TOLD I WOULD BE CONTACTED EARLY THE FOLLOWING WEEK TO HAVE SOMEONE DISCUSS MY OPTIONS. IT IS NOW ALMOST A MONTH LATER AND I HAVE RECEIVED NO CALL NOR ANY RESPONSE FROM MY MESSAGES.
