ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
CONSUMER TOOK KEY OUT OF IGNITION AND WALKED AROUND TO BACK TO OTHER SIDE OF VEHICLE AND OPENED DOOR ON PASSENGER'S SIDE, AND VEHICLE BEGUN TO ROLL BACK. IT ROLLED OUT OF GARAGE, DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, ACROSS THE STREET, AND DOWN AN EMBANKMENT, CRASHING INTO SOME TREES. THIS CREATED ABOUT 10,000.00 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO VEHICLE.*AK

SUSPENSION
FROM THE TIME I BOUGHT MY CRV I NOTICE THAT THE STEERING WHEEL PULL TO THE RIGHT AT ALL TIME. I SEND IT BACK 3 TIMES AT THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHECK THE ALIGNMENT AND IT IS PERFECT, THEY SWITCHES THE TIRES AND IT STILL THE SAME, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS NATURAL TO ALL CRV DUE TO THE TORK DRIVE SYSTEM DESIGN. THE LAST TIME I SEND IT BACK TO MY DEALER HE DRIVES IT AND TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. I TOOK A VIDEO WITH ME AND SHOW IT MANY TIME TO THE MANAGER OF HONDA, THE CRV PULL TO THE RIGHT AND THE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. I COULD NOT TRUST TO DRIVE THIS DANGEROUS CAR WITH MY 9 MONTH OLD SON. *AK

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THE TIMING BELT BROKE 2500 MILES BEFORE FIRST SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE CAUSING THE CAR TO BREAK DOWN ON THE FREEWAY, THANKFULLY WE WERE STUCK IN TRAFFIC OTHERWISE THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE! THE DEALER IS NOW TELLING ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE FOR 7000.00 DOLLARS. IF I HAD BEEN TOLD TO CHANGE THE BELT SOONER I WOULD HAVE DONE SO. I FOLLOW THE MAINTENANCE SHCEDULE IN MY OWNERS MANUAL BECAUSE IT CLEARLY STATES THAT FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH CAUSED BY AN ACCIDENT DUE TO EQUIPMENT FAILURE. IF THE MANUAL SAYS 105K MILES TO CHANGE THE TIMING BELT, IT SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO LAST UNTIL 105K MILES. WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT A HEADLIGHT HERE, THIS FAILURE CAUSED MY ENTIRE CAR TO SIEZE UP ON ME. THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT OFF INCLUDING STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. THANK GOD I WAS NOT GOING 65MPH. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.*AK

SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY
LEFT-REAR SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY "LOCKS UP." ONCE LATCHED IN PLACE OVER A PASSENGER, THE BELT "LOCKS" SECURELY IN PLACE, FORCING THE PASSENGER TO UNFASTEN THE BELT IN ORDER TO LEAN FORWARD ANY DEGREE. PERHAPS A FAULTY PRE-TENSIONER? TWICE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE SELLING DEALERSHIP, TWICE NOTHING DONE -- "THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS." MOST RECENTLY CONTACTED DEALER ON AUGUST 8, 2002, ONLY TO LEARN THAT "THE BELT DOES THE SAME THING ON THE 2002 CR-V'S, SO YOURS COULD NOT BE FAULTY." IF MY LR SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY IS NOT FAULTY, THEN WHY DOES MY RR SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. HELP!!*AK

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:MODULE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL
CAR SKIPS AND HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING BETWEEN 35 & 50 MPH. HAS CAUSED 3 NEAR ACCIDENTS MAINLY DUE TO BEING STARTLED. VEHICLE IS UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE. HONDA HAS REPLACED COMPUTER AND OXYGEN SENSOR WITHOUT IMPROVING THE POOR PERFORMANCE. HONDA NOW TAKES THE OFFICIAL POSITION OF "THIS IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS MODEL". I HAVE ASKED THAT THEY TAKE ME OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND HONDA HAS REFUSED.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I COULDN'T START IT AND HAD TO TOWED IT DOWN TO DEALER. I WAS LUCKY THAT IT DID NOT HAPPENED IN THE HIGHWAY. I CAN NOT IMAGINE WHAT WILL BE HAPPEN IF IT STALLS AGAIN IT THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGH WHERE EVERY ONE DRIVES SO CLOSE AND HIGH SPEED. I DRIVE ABOUT 150 MILES EVERY WORKDAY FOR MY JOB AND MOSTLY IN THE HIGH WAY. I ALSO TRAVEL AT NIGHT. I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY LIFE AND LIFE OF MY FAMILY MEMBER. AND I BELIEF THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE .I TRIED TO TALK TO THE COMPANEY AND ALSO WROTE THEM A LETTER BUT IT SEEMS THERY ARE NOT GIVING IT ANY SERIOUS CONSIDERATION FOR OBVIOUS ECONOMIC REASON. I HOPE YOU COULD HELP ME. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING TO REPAIR WHICH MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT BECAUSE WHATEVER IS THE REASON MAY BE IT IS STILL THERE.*AK

SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
THE SEAT BELT IS DESIGNED IN SUCH A WAY AS IT CAN WRAP AROUND THE SEAT BACK TILT ADJUSTMENT, CAUSING THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK TO FLY BACK. THIS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE LEAVING A TOLL BOOTH ON THE INDIANA TOLLWAY. IT APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING MORE OFTEN AS THE VEHICLE AGES AND THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM BECAME WORN. *AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
PROBLEM STARTED APPROX 7500 MILES. I WAS GETTING LOUD POPPING NOISES FROM FRONT AND REAR BRAKES. OCCURRED WHEN BACKING UP / MOVING FORWARD ( CHANGING DIRECTIONS WHILE APPLYING BRAKES.) EVERY DAY GOT WORSE, YOU COULD HEAR NOISE FROM A DISTANCE OF +100'. HONDA HAS A BULLETIN ON THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THEY ARE DOWN PLAYING IT. THEY STATE IT IS A 'CLICKING NOISE'. IT IS NOT A 'CLICKING NOISE', I HAVE A LOUD POPPING, METAL TO METAL NOISE. TOOK TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. DEALER DETERMINED IT WAS 'DEFECTIVE BRAKE PADS' AND MY CR-V NOISE WAS LOUDER THAN MOST. DEALER REPLACED BRAKE PADS (DEALER WORK ORDER INV#W70499) YOU COULD SEE WHERE THE METAL TIPS OF THE PADS WERE BANGING BACK AND FORTH AGAINST THE CALIPER BRACKETS. I MET WITH AMERICAN HONDA JUL 02 2002. IN SO MANY WORDS HE SAID HONDA IS STILL LOOKING INTO THE MATTER, SINCE THE 2002 MODEL IS TOTALLY NEW, IT COULD BE THAT THE BRAKE PADS ARE TOO SMALL OR THE CALIPERS TOO BIG, SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG. AMERICAN HONDA REP. SAID THEY ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS MATTER, BUT AT THIS TIME, REPLACING THE BRAKE PADS ARE THE ONLY THING THEY CAN THINK OF TO DO, HOPING THAT THE REPLACEMENT PADS ARE A FRACTION LARGER THAN THE ORIGINAL PADS. THE DEALER, AMERICAN HONDA AND I DO NOT KNOW IF THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED. IT IS A NOISE NOT DETECTED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS FIRST PURCHASED, IT OCCURS WHEN YOU GET SOME MILEAGE ON THE BRAKE PADS. PLEASE ADVISE MORE INFORMATION AND CHECK INTO THIS DEFECT BEFORE THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. *AK
