MY CAR DOOR DRIVERS SIDE LOCK STOPPED WORKING IN MAY IT COST ME CLOSE TO $700 TO REPLACE BOTH SIDES HONDA SAID I HAD TO DO BOTH OF THEM. THE WHEN I WAS DRIVING OUT THE END OF MAY TO VISIT MY MOM IN WASHINGTON STATE, MY SUNROOF EXPLODED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NO WHERE. THAT WAS $1400 IN WA TO REPLACE. ON THE WAY HOME IN AUGUST MY AC STOPPED WORKING JUST BLEW HOT AIR WHEN IT WAS 92 OUTSIDE. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY OF THESE THINGS HAPPEN TO ANY OTHER CAR. THERE ALL VERY UNCOMMON SO THEY SAY BUT AFTER RESEARCHING THE AC CLUTCH PROBLEM I SEE IT HAPPENS A LOT AND HONDA SHOULD FIX IT FOR FREE! I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA EVER!! *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I PURCHASED MY 2005 HONDA CR-V EX BRAND NEW. I HAD NO REAL ISSUES WITH IT UNTIL AROUND 2007. FROM THAT POINT ON I HAVE HAD MY LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS (PLURAL) BURN OUT, ALMOST IN TANDEM, AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR. THE FREQUENCY APPEARS TO BE INCREASING. OCCASIONALLY, THEY WILL TAKE THE DOME LIGHT WITH THEM. I HAVEN'T TOUCHED THE BULBS WHEN REPLACING THE DEAD SETS. I HAVE NOTICED A MASSIVE BUILD-UP OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE BLACK GREASE ON THE CONNECTORS WHEN I'VE CHANGED THEM THE LAST FEW TIMES. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE CAUSE (IF SO, WHAT IS CAUSING IT) OR A SIDE EFFECT OF THE PROBLEM. I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2002-2004 CR-V FOR THE SAME SYMPTOMS (DON'T KNOW IF THE CAUSE WAS THE SAME). I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THIS AS A "KNOWN ISSUE" AFTER READING APPROXIMATELY 161 COMPLAINTS FROM OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM (REF: CR-V HEADLIGHT PROBLEM AT HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/HONDA-CR-V/TLND3JKAUI93FS68G/P9). I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM ACTUALLY IS. THIS IS BOTH A SAFETY HAZARD AND AN EXPENSIVE RECURRING REPAIR. *TR

REAR HATCH WILL NOT UNLOCK. UNABLE TO UNLOCK REAR PASSENGER DOOR. I'VE BEEN TOLD IT IS AN DEFECTIVE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. A CLASS ACTION SUIT WAS FILED IN APRIL 2013 REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I CALLED HONDA WHO SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER TO EVALUATE THE SITUATION. PERHAPS HONDA SHOULD CONSIDER RECALLING THE DEFECTIVE ACTUATORS. BEING UNABLE TO UNLOCK CAR DOORS ON A VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE. *TR

WHEELS, AIR BAGS, STEERING
WE WERE TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN CAR ACCIDENT WHICH PERHAPS LEAD TO THE PRESENT PROBLEMS. I'M NOT AN EXPERT ON CARS. HOWEVER I DO FEEL A SAFETY CONCERN WITH THE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD WITH CHILDREN. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SENT 4 TIMES; FIX MOSTLY A LOOSE NOISE WITH STEERING ISSUES (THERE CONNECTED?). THESE ISSUES OCCUR CONSTANT DURING TURNS AND ON THE ROAD. ONCE THE MECHANIC WORKS ON THE VEHICLE THE PROBLEMS ALWAYS RETURN. ARE THERE ANY DEFECTS OR SAFETY ISSUES REGARDING LOOSE NOISE, OR STEERING PROBLEMS? AND PRIOR TO ANY ACCIDENT? SECOND, THE DEALER DID SEND THE VEHICLE TO HONDA TO CHECK THE AIR BAG BUT THAT SEAMS TO BE A CONCERN AS WELL. ANY IDEAS FOR ME? THIRD, NOT ONLY DO I HAVE A SAFETY CONCERN BUT THE DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE ANY DOCUMENTATION OF FIXING ANY PARTS. SO WE REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE IN REGARDS TO; WHAT HAS BEEN FIXED OR A DEFECT PRIOR TO A ACCIDENT?

REAR PASSENGER DOOR-LOCK DOES NOT STAY LOCKED. IT GRADUALLY BEGINS TO UNLOCK EVEN THOUGH IT'S LOCKED BY REMOTE OR MANUALLY. THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR WILL AUTOMATICALLY REMAIN OPEN EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD BE LOCKED. IT PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE REMAINS OPEN EVEN DURING THE NIGHT. *TR

THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED NO MATTER WHETHER I UNLOCK IT FROM OUTSIDE WITH THE REMOTE OR FROM THE INSIDE DRIVER LOCK BUTTON. IT UNLOCKS THEN A COUPLE SECONDS LATER, IT LOCKS ITSELF. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I UNLOCK THE DOOR - NOT SPORADICALLY. *TR

I HAVE THE 2008 CR-V. ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, ALL MY DOOR LOCKS STARTED AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THEMSELVES AT AROUND 9 OR 10 MILES PER HOUR. I'M AFRAID TO LET MY KIDS RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT NOW. WHAT IF ONE OF THEM DECIDED TO HANG ON TO THE DOOR HANDLE AND IT OPENED ACCIDENTALLY WHILE WE WERE MOVING? I HOPE HONDA GETS A HANDLE OF THIS PROBLEM AND ISSUES A RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
