DRIVING AT 60 MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VSA AND OTHER DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, THE VEHICLE SEMI-STALLED OUT, AND CRUISE CONTROL WENT OUT. IT SELF CORRECTED AND I KEPT ON GOING. THIS HAPPENED 3-4 TIMES DURING A 60 MILE DRIVE. THEN JUST THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON - I DROVE HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. TODAY MY MECHANIC HOOKED IT UP TO A COMPUTER AND IT IS A PCM PROBLEM. THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2007 CR-V'S FOR A TCM/PCM PROBLEM IN 2011 BUT ACCORDING TO AMERICAN HONDA IT IS "VIN SPECIFIC" AND MY VIN DOESN'T HAVE THIS RECALL PROBLEM. BUT MY CAR HAS THIS PROBLEM, IT SOUNDS SERIOUS, AND NOW I MUST PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED :( I WON'T EVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DEFAULTING LOCKING DOOR SYSTEM. DOORS KEEP ON LOCKING WHILE DRIVING OR/AND NOT LOCKING ALL DOORS WHILE PARKED. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED LATCH ASSEMBLY ONCE THIS YEAR AND NOW BROKEN AGAIN. THIS LOCKING WHILE DRIVING HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR YEARS. IT'S VERY BOTHERSOME NOT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE ALL DOORS LOCKED WHILE PARKED.

THE RIGHT REAR PASSENGER DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM UNLOCKS ITSELF AFTER LOCKING WITH DRIVER'S MASTER CONTROL OR KEY CONTROL. THIS ALLOWS THE DOOR TO BE UNSECURED WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING CAUSING SAFETY ISSUE. HONDA SEES THIS AS WARRANTY ISSUE NOT SAFETY ISSUE.

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED AFTER BEING ACTIVATED FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OR PASSENGER SIDE. THIS POSES A SAFETY PROBLEM SHOULD THE FRONT PASSENGER NEED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY LOCKED, AFTER MANUALLY "LOCKING" THE VEHICLE AND ESPECIALLY AFTER THE VEHICLES AUTOMATIC LOCKING SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED. THIS POSES A SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD A CHILD, OR A PASSENGER IF ANY AGE CAN OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE AND DOOR LOCKS SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA WITH NO EXPIRATION.

TAKATA RECALL: ON 12/6/2016 PER RECALL HONDA DEALER REPLACED BOTH DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG INFLATORS. IN JULY 2017, WHILE CAR IN PARK AND RUNNING, DASH AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON AS PASSENGER WAS PUTTING ON HER SEAT BELT AND REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING UNTIL CAR ENGINE WAS SHUTOFF. UPON RESTARTING CAR, UNDER SAME CONDITIONS, AIRBAG SENSOR DID NOT COME ON AGAIN. ON 7/27/17 THIS ISSUE WAS EVALUATED BY THE SAME DEALER WITH TESTING REVEALING "FRONT PASSENGER WEIGHT SENSOR - INTERMITTENT FAILURE". TOLD REPAIR OF SUCH IS NOT PART OF AIR BAG SENSOR RECALL SINCE IT IS IN THE SEAT, STARTING WITH REPLACING SEAT SIDE ASSEMBLY WITH JUST THE PART COSTING APPROX $1100 + LABOR COST-UNKNOWN COST, ADVISED FOR SAFETY, TO AVOID UNEXPECTED AIR BAG DELOY, DO NOT HAVE PASSENGER IN FRONT SEAT IF AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT IS ON.

DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR: IN 2015 RECEIVED RECALL ON DOOR LOCKS MODEL YEARS 2007-2008 (SEE ATTACHED NOTICE/SETTEMENT). IN 2013 AND 2014, I REPLACED THE FRONT AND BACK PASSENGER SIDE DEFECTIVE LOCKS (SCRAPING SOUNDS/LOCKING PASSENGER IN BY OPENING BUT IMMEDIATELY LOCKING) AT MY EXPENSE. DUE TO THE RECALL, HONDA REIMBURSED ME FOR THESE AND PAID TO HAVE THE DRIVERSIDE FRONT REPLACED BY DEALER BEFORE IT BECAME PROBLEMATIC. IN DECEMBER OF 2016 THE BACK DOOR LOCK ON THE DRIVERSIDE OF THE CAR STARTED MAKING A SCRATCHING SOUND UPON AUTOLOCKING. WHEN I HAD IT AT DEALER FOR AIRBAG RECALL FIX, THEY SAID ALL THEY DID IS LUBRICATE IT AS RECALL ONLY WAS FOR THEM TO FIX DRIVERS DOOR LOCK. NO IMPROVEMENT IN LOCK NOISE WHICH WORSENED TO THE POINT OF A HIGH PITCH SCREACHING SOUND LASTING 2 SECONDS AND NOT ONLY OCCURRED WHEN AUTOLOCKED WHEN MOVING CAR FROM PARK GEAR BUT WOULD SUDDENDLY OCCUR WHILE DRIVING WHEN TURNING OR STARTING UP FROM STOP LIGHT WHICH WAS VERY STARTLING AND DISTRACTING TO DRIVER. I CONTACTED HONDA IN MAY 2017 ABOUT ISSUE BUT THEY SAID EVEN THOUGH THEY COVERED THE OTHER 3 POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS AS PART OF THERECALL, THEY WONT COVER THIS REMAINING LOCK, CAR IS TOO OLD. THE ATTACHED SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT DOES STATE WARRENTY ON 4 OCCUPANT DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS BUT THEY ONLY PAID FOR 3. DUE TO THE PROGRESSIVELY WORSENING UNEXPECTED STARTLING LOUDNESS OF THE DOOR LOCK RIGHT BEHIND THE DRIVER, POSING A SAFETY RISK WHILE DRIVING, I HAD IT FIXED 6/27/2017, PAID $211.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING SERVICED AT HONDA CARS OF AIKEN (550 JEFFERSON DAVIS HWY, WARRENVILLE, SC 29851) FOR A RECALL REPAIR, THE TECHNICIAN NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE LOCKING MECHANISM FAILED.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (KELLY HONDA, 40 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA 01905, (781) 595-5252) TWO YEARS AGO FOR A MANUFACTURER RECALL TO SERVICE THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
APPROXIMATELY 5 WEEKS AGO I WAS DRIVING LOCALLY WITH MY WIFE AND 6 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR WHEN WITHOUT WARNING THE BRAKES SUDDENLY ENGAGED CAUSING THE CAR TO COME TO A SUDDEN STOP. THE VSA WARNING LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER PRESSING AND PULLING THE BRAKE PEDAL FOR SEVERAL MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO GET THE BRAKES TO RELEASE. TODAY I RECEIVED A FRANTIC CALL FROM MY WIFE BECAUSE AS SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR THE BRAKES SUDDENLY LOCKED UP WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING AND CAUSED THE CAR TO COME TO A SUDDEN STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AFTER THIS FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE SHE IS UNDERSTANDABLY AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND READ OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA HAS RECOGNIZED THIS PROBLEM IN THEIR PILOT MODEL AND HAS RECALLED OVER 183,000 VEHICLES BUT HAS YET TO RECOGNIZE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE CRV MODEL. THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE TO BRAKE UNEXPECTEDLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP OBVIOUSLY POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY RISK. HONDA NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE THIS DEFECT IS NOT LIMITED TO THEIR PILOT MODEL, BUT TO ALL MODELS WHICH THEY MANUFACTURE THAT SHARE THE SAME OR SIMILAR COMPONENTS AS THE PILOT MODEL INCLUDING THEIR CRV AND OTHER MODELS.

DOOR LOCKS:: 2014 CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT RESULTED IN SIX MONTH EXTENSION TO NOVEMBER 2015 FOR HONDA 2007 CRV REPAIR THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THE LOCK HAS A DESIGN FLAW THAT RESULTS IN THE DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE UNLOCKED FROM THE INSIDE. IF YOU UNLOCK THE DOORS, IT AUTOMATICALLY RE-LOCKS. THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT IS FOR AN ADULT TO PUT THEIR THUMB ON THE MANUAL DOOR LATCH AND TRY TO BLOCK THE LATCH FROM LOCKING WHILE YOU TRY TO OPEN THE DOOR. THE PASSENGER LOCKS ON MY AFFECTED VEHICLE HAD VERY LITTLE USAGE WHILE DRIVER DOOR HAD HIGH USAGE. DRIVER DOOR WAS NOT AFFECTED SO THIS IS NOT A "WEAR" ISSUE. ALSO, LOCK SHOULD DEFAULT TO UNLOCKED IF FAILS. NOT LOCKED AS YOU CAN'T GET OF THE CAR. HONDA ISSUED SERVICE BULLETIN 14-083 AND 084 WHICH IDENTIFIES THE PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE AN INVOLUNTARY UNTIMED RECALL AS THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. A SECONDARY ISSUE IS LOCAL DEALER DID NOT FOLLOW THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT SAYS DRIVER DOOR LOCK TO BE REPLACED WHETHER WORKING OR NOT. OCEAN HONDA, SANTA CRUZ CA. DID NOT DO THAT WHEN I BROUGHT IN DUE TO HONDA NOTIFICATION. HONDA REVISED ITS SERVICE BULLETIN TO INCLUDE PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS..OCEAN HONDA DID NOT INFORM ME. THEY HAD CAR IN FOR AIR BAG RECALLS AND SERVICE EVERY 3 MONTHS. TRYING TO GET THEM TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY NOW AS WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED; BUT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE.
