WHEELS
DURING A 3500 MILE TRIP THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING WARNING LIGHT (TPMS) CAME ON AT LEAST 6 TIMES. EACH TIME I STOPPED AND NONE OF THE TIRES WERE LOW. I RESET THE SYSTEM AND CONTINUED TO DRIVE. EVENTUALLY, THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND I REPEATED THE SAME, STOP AND CHECK PROCEDURE, EACH TIME THERE WASN'T ANY VARIATION IN THE TIRE PRESSURE. I HAVE HAD TPMS ON OTHER VEHICLES AND NEVER HAVE I HAD A FALSE READING. THE HONDA SYSTEM IS A BASIC SYSTEM AT BEST AND FROM READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, HAS BEEN PLAGUED WITH PROBLEMS. THEIR SYSTEM IS MORE OF AN ANNOYANCE THAN BENEFIT. I WAS TOLD THE 2014'S HAD UPDATED SOFTWARE WHICH DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK. HONDA NEEDS TO DESIGN A SUITABLE FIX FOR A KNOWN PROBLEM. *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE AWD ON THE 2014 HONDA CRV FAILS WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE FALLS BELOW ZERO, THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE THEN IS JUST A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE. WE LIVE IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE USA AND OFTEN DEAL WITH SNOW PACKED ROADS. WITHOUT THE AWD WORKING THIS LEADS TO DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION AND AT TIMES LOSS OF CONTROL. THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD THE VEHICLE IN 4 TIMES AND HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND AT THIS TIME HAS NOT OFFERED AND SOLUTION TO THE SITUATION, ONLY THAT THE TECH/ENGINEERS WILL LOOK INTO THE ISSUE. AT THIS TIME CAN NOT EVEN GET THE VEHICLE UP THE HILL OF OUR SNOW PACKED DRIVEWAY WITHOUT A TOW. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON DECEMBER 13TH AT APPROXIMATELY NOON I WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT IN MANSFIELD, MA BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY 2011 HONDA CRV( WITH A LITTLE OVER 66, 000 MILES), HEADING WEST ON ROUTE 106 AT THE INTERSECTION WITH ROUTE 140, IN THE LEFT LANE. WITH MY FOOT SQUARELY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE CAR BEGAN TO SLOWLY MOVE FORWARD. IT FELT LIKE I WAS BEING PUSHED FROM BEHIND. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE GEAR SHIFT IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP TO RED LINE AT WHICH POINT I SHUT THE CAR OFF. I SAT THERE FOR A MINUTE AND DECIDE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE IF THE ENGINE WAS STILL REVVING. IT WAS NOT, SO I CAREFULLY DROVE HOME WITH ON HAND ON THE GEAR SHIFT. THE CAR WAS SUBSEQUENTLY INSPECTED BY PRIME HONDA AND HONDA MOTOR CO (CASE NO. [XXX]) AND NO DEFECTS WERE FOUND. AT MY REQUEST ,THEY INSTALLED A NEW COMPUTER CHIP CHARGING ME THEIR COST. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THERE ARE SEVERAL ONGOING PROBLEMS CAUSED BY DEFECTS WITH THIS VEHICLE. THERE IS A VIBRATION WHEN THE CAR IS IN "DRIVE" AND COMPLETELY STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION. THE RPM'S DROP, SOMETIMES AS LOW AS 550 WHICH CAUSES A VIBRATION AS IF THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO STALL. THE LOWER THE RPM'S, THE WORSE THE VIBRATION. ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AT A STOP LIGHT BECAUSE THE RPMS DROPPED SO LOW. THERE IS ANOTHER VIBRATION OR SHUDDER IN THE TRANSMISSION BETWEEN 1800 AND 2000 RPMS WHEN ACCELERATING. SOMETIMES I SMELL GASOLINE IN MY CAR SHORTLY AFTER IGNITION. SOMETIMES FOLLOWING DECELERATION, THE CVT TRANSMISSION CANNOT CATCH UP, AND WHEN I NEED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, I PUT THE "PEDAL TO THE METAL;" BUT THE CAR IS BARELY ACCELERATING AND NOT THRUSTING FORWARD LIKE IT SHOULD. THIS OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY MERGE AT I-83 AND I-695 ON DECEMBER 19, 2014 (A TRICKY AND DANGEROUS MERGE AREA). TWICE SINCE 1/1/15 I HAVE HEARD A FRIGHTENING ENGINE NOISE WHEN DECELERATING ON A WINDY DOWNHILL ROAD. THE NOISE SOUNDS LIKE A SMALL PLANE IS OVERHEAD, AND I WAS SHOCKED THE CAR WS STILL RUNNING, AS I WAS LOOKING FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS OR SOME INDICATION WHAT WAS WRONG. IT IS NOT A NORMAL ENGINE NOISE. HONDA IS AWARE OF THE VIBRATIONS WHEN STOPPED AND AT 1800-2000 RPMS AND DOES NOT KNOW IF/WHEN A FIX MAY BE AVAILABLE. I AM NOT THE ONLY OWNER WITH THIS ISSUE - THERE ARE A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THE VARIOUS REVIEW BOARDS, AND HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IT IS WIDESPREAD. HONDA WILL NOT PROVIDE THEIR POSITION TO ME IN WRITING WHEN ASKED. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE OTHER PROBLEMS WHICH ARE MORE INTERMITTENT, AND IT WILL BE BACK AT THE DEALER NEXT WEEK TO ADDRESS THE FRIGHTENING ENGINE NOISE AND DOCUMENT THAT PROBLEM. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL FAIL, RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE USING 'CRUISE CONTROL' IN FREEWAY TRAFFIC, THE CARS AHEAD BEGAN TO SLOW, SUDDENLY WHILE I HAD CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, IN FIFTH GEAR. *TR A BLACK PRIUS WAS THE CAR IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF MINE. THE SLOWING OF THE TRAFFIC WAS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH SO THAT I USED LIGHT BRAKING TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL AND SLOW THE VEHICLE. JUST A 'TAP' ON THE BRAKE IS ALL THAT HAS EVER BEEN NECESSARY TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION. "LIGHT' BRAKING AND THEN 'VERY HEAVY' BRAKING DID NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL OR TO SLOW THE VEHICLE WHATSOEVER. I ALMOST COLLIDED WITH THE REAR END OF THE PRIUS. THE ONLY WAY I COULD RESUME CONTROL AND SLOW MY VEHICLE WAS TO REACH OVER AND SLAP-OFF THE MASTER, CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH AT THE FAR LEFT OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS WAS VERY SCARY AS I'VE HEARD OF IT HAPPENING BUT HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN THIS VEHICLE AND I'VE OWNED IT SINCE NEW. WHEN I FIRST ATTEMPTED TO TAP THE BRAKE TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL, AND SLOW; MY VEHICLE ALSO SEEMED TO ACCELERATE AT THE SAME TIME... I THINK THAT THIS, PROBABLY, WAS NOT ACTUALLY THE CASE AS THE CLOSURE RATE TO THE OTHER VEHICLE AND MY INABILITY TO SLOW THE VEHICLE, PROBABLY JUST MADE IT SEEM LIKE THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING... I HONESTLY DO NOT KNOW. I CANNOT REPRODUCE THE ANOMALY..... *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
I HAD LEFT MY OFFICE ABOUT 10 MINUTES PRIOR TO PULLING INTO A SHOPPING CENTER AND WAS DRIVING ABOUT 5 MPH IN THE PARKING LOT, LOOKING FOR A PARKING SPACE. I SAW ONE AND SLOWED DOWN EVEN MORE TO BARELY MOVING, AND WAS EASING INTO THE PARKING SPACE WITH MY RIGHT FOOT ON THE BRAKE. JUST AS THE CAR STOPPED AND I WAS GETTING READY TO PUT IT INTO PARK, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY REVVED UP AND THE CAR JUMPED THE CURB AND HIT A TREE ABOUT 5 FEET IN FRONT OF THE PARKING SPACE AT FULL FORCE. IT WAS LIKE THE ACCELERATOR HAD BEEN PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I WAS TOTALLY STUNNED. THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE CAR WAS SMASHED IN AND RADIATOR FLUID WAS COMING OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. WHEN THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED, I WAS NOT TALKING ON THE PHONE; I WAS NOT DRINKING OR EATING ANYTHING IN THE CAR; I DID NOT EVEN HAVE THE RADIO TURNED ON. I WAS NOT IN AN EMOTIONAL STATE; I AM NOT PSYCHOTIC, HOMICIDAL ,OR SUICIDAL. I HAD BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL AS I HAD JUST MADE A SLOW LEFT TURN INTO THE PARKING SPACE AND WAS BARELY MOVING, WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. I HAVE GONE ON THE INTERNET TO RESEARCH ANYTHING LIKE THIS OCCURRING WITH OTHER HONDA CRV'S, AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS INCIDENCES CITED INVOLVING THE 2011 AND 2013 MODELS. IT HAPPENS IN VERY COLD WEATHER (FREEZING OR BELOW) , WHILE THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED. IT WAS IN THE LOW 30'S AT THE TIME AND MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. LUCKILY, THE TREE STOPPED MY FORWARD MOTION, OR I WOULD HAVE ENDED UP DRIVING THRU THE PLATE GLASS WINDOW OF THE UPS STORE. OTHER DRIVERS HAVE NOT BEEN SO LUCKY - SOME HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL, OTHER CARS INVOLVED, OTHER PEOPLE INJURED. I AM ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AGAIN.

VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM
THE HEATER/DEFROSTER FAILED TO OPERATE AS IT HAD IN THE PAST ON DECEMBER 6, 2013. PREVIOUS TO THAT DATE THE AIR CONDITIONER FAILED TO COOL PROPERLY STARTING IN AUGUST, 2013. HAZY WHITE MATERIAL COATED THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD REQUIRING CONSTANT WIPING SO WE CEASED USING THE AIR. OVER A SEVERAL WEEK PERIOD IN FALL 2013 THE LEFT SIDE HEATER/DEFROSTER FAILED TO HEAT THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR AND THE WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER FAILED REQUIRING US TO STOP THE CAR AND WIPE THE OUTSIDE OF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CABIN HEATER BLEW SOME HOT AIR AND SOME HOT AIR REACHED THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER AT SCHAUMBURG HONDA LISTENED TO MY COMPLAINT AND AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES RETURNED TO TELL ME ALL OPERATIONS WERE NORMAL AND I NEEDED TO USE THE RECIRCULATION TO EQUALIZE CABIN TEMPERATURE. I IMMEDIATELY TRADED THE CAR SINCE THE WINDSHIELD WAS UNABLE TO DEFROST AND CABIN TO HEAT. SEARCH GOOGLE UNDER " HEATER ON CR-V DOESN'T WORK" TO SEE MULTIPLE STORIES OF SAME AN VIDEOS OF ATTEMPTS LIKE MINE TO WORK HEATER/DEFROSTER COMPLAINTS. *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES THUS FAR AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN I WAS TOLD 1. A CUPPED REAR TIRE, 2. FRONT DRIVER SIDE TIRE WAS OUT OF BALANCE 3. TIRES WAS OVER INFLATED AND RIGHT REAR TIRE REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. IN ADDITION TO THE VIBRATION, THE TPS LIGHT HAS COME ON REPEATEDLY. HOWEVER WHEN CHECKED WITH CALIBRATED METER THE TIRES WERE WITHIN APPROPRIATE INFLATION RANGE. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
MY CR-V EX WAS SERVICED BY THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM. THE ENGINE, CAT CONVERTER, AND CV-BOOT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, BECAUSE THE ENGINE HAS A SERVER OIL LEAK INTERNALLY. THIS OIL LEAK MY ALSO COST ME A TRANSMISSION. THESE ISSUES COST OVER $8,400.00 AND COUNTING. I ONLY OWNED THE CAR 66 DAYS BEFORE I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE IS JUNK. A FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT THE DEALERSHIP OWES ME MY MONEY ON THIS ISSUE, BECAUSE IT WAS BROUGHT TO THERE ATTENTION LESS THEN A WEEK AFTER I PURCHASED THIS CAR. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS CONSTANTLY NEED TO BE REPLACED. GOING THROUGH MY 3RD REPLACEMENT IN ABOUT A YEAR. USUALLY ONE GOES OUT AND THEN SHORTLY AFTER, THE OTHER ONE GOES OUT. I HAD THEM BOTH REPLACED ABOUT A MONTH AND HALF AGO. I WAS LEAVING WORK AND TURNED ON THE HEADLIGHTS AND WITHIN A SECOND, THEY BOTH WENT OUT. IT WAS DARK SO I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE HEATER IN THIS CAR BLOWS COLD AIR AND IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO WARM UP DURING LONG COMMUTES EVEN WHEN THE FAN AND HEAT ADJUSTMENTS ARE ON HIGH. IT HAS NOT IMPROVED DURING THE PAST THREE MONTHS OF COLD WEATHER AND IT DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD TO PURCHASE AN AWD VEHICLE WHEN THE HEAT DOESN'T EVEN WORK.

TIRES
I STARTED BRINGING MY 2014 HONDA CR-V TO NARDY HONDA ON APRIL 12, 2014 BECAUSE THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS ON, ON APRIL 12TH THEY TOLD ME IT MAY NEED TO HAVE THE SOFTWARE UPDATED, HOWEVER AFTER HONDA MECHANICS SEEING THE CAR THEY DETERMINED IT WAS THE LATEST SOFTWARE AND NEEDED NO UPDATE. THEY SET THE TIRE PRESSURE AND RESET THE SYSTEMS DETERMINING THERE WERE NO LEEKS IN ANY OF THE TIRES. ON MAY 28TH IT CAME ON AGAIN, THEY SAID 1500 SEE TECH NOTES-TOPPED OFF AIR PRESSURE AND CALIBRATED TPMS ALL OK. ON MAY 30TH THEY SAID THEY UNINSTALLED THE SOFTWARE, RE CALIBRATED THE TIRES AND SET THEM BACK TO FACTORY SETTINGS. JUNE 14, 2014 AND THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN. WHEN THE TIRES WERE CHECKED TODAY THEY ALL HAD THE EXACT AMOUNT OF AIR. THERE WAS NO FLATS OR LOSS OF AIR. NOW THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE ON ALL THE FOLLOWING DATES: APRIL 12, 2014, MAY 28, 2014, JUNE 16, 2014, OCTOBER 24, 2014 CALLED HONDA CORPORATE TO REPORT PROBLEM AND SEE IF I COULD GET SOME HELP, DECEMBER 5, 2014 THEY CLAIM TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR GOOD AND TODAY JANUARY 5, 2015 LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I CALLED CORPORATE AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY AN DO OTHER THAN REFER ME TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT THE CAR. I AM ONCE AGAIN GOING BACK TO NARDY HONDA ON JANUARY 6, 2014 FOR THEM TO LOOK AT THE CAR. THIS IS DISGUSTING HOW I AM BEING TREATED. THEY CANT FIX MY CAR AND WONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY REP FROM HONDA CORPORATE [XXX] IS 1-800-999-1009 EXT[XXX], CASE # [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TEST DROVE TEN (10) 2015 CRVS ( LX, EX AND EXLS) AND THEY ALL VIBRATE WHEN IN DRIVE MODE AND ONE'S FOOT ON THE BRAKE AS WHEN STOPPED IN TRAFFIC OR WAITING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. ( FAN, AC MUST BE OFF) WHEN RPM INCREASES DUE TO ENGINE LOAD ON THE ALTERNATOR ( TURNING FAN ON, AC , ETC) AND THE RPM INCREASES THE ISSUE GOES AWAY. ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF THE IDLE RPM COULD BE INCREASED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE. NEEDLESS TO SAY , DID NOT PURCHASE ANY OF THE VEHICLES. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AT A 10 MPH COAST I START TO ACCELERATE SLOWLY AND THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT WILL STALL. THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE, THE RPM DOES NOT CHANGE WITH MOVEMENT OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. I HAVE TO ROCK THE PEDAL TWO TO THREE TIMES TO GET THE ENGINE TO RESPOND AND ACCELERATE WITH THE TRAFFIC. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM THAT THE DEALER ON 2 OCCASIONS HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DETECT AND CORRECT I HAVE COME CLOSE TO BEING HIT FROM THE REAR TWICE. THE HONDA DEALER'S EXPLANATION IS THE TRANSMISSION IS WAITING FOR THE COMPUTER TO TELL IT TO " UP OR DOWNSHIFT. " IF THAT WERE THE CASE, THE RPM WOULD CHANGE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PRESSED . . *TR

ENGINE, SEATS
THE IDLE SPEED FOR THE VEHICLE IS TOO LOW. WITH THE ENGINE WARMED UP, YOU CAN STEP ON THE BRAKE (AS IS TYPICAL AT A RED LIGHT) AND THE CAR WILL VIBRATE A LOT AND THE DRIVER WILL FEEL AN UNCOMFORTABLE VIBRATION. AT TIMES, IT SEEMS LIKE THE ENGINE MIGHT SHUT OFF. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED AND THE ENGINE RPM INCREASE A LITTLE BIT, THE VIBRATION STOPS. A QUICK SEARCH ON THE INTERNET WILL REVEAL THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

BATTERY WAS GOING DEAD PERIODICALLY. THOUGHT I WAS LEAVING A LIGHT ON OR DOOR OPEN. TOLD THE HONDA DEALER TO CHECK THE BATTERY WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THEY NEVER CHECKED IT. DIDNT EVEN PUT THAT I ASKED TO CHECK IT. OUT OF WARRANTY BATTERY WENT DEAD. DID A CHECK AT AUTOZONE THEY SAID IT WAS THE ALTENATOR. CHANGED ALTENATOR STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. VOLTAGE REGULATOR. THE VOLTS ONLY STAY UP WHEN I KEEP THE HEADLIGHTS ON. ( MORE TO THIS STORY ABOUT MY BAD DEALERSHIP EXPERIENCE BUT DON'T WANT TO GET INTO IT) *JS
