For about six months my service lights have been lighting up. For the same amount of time I have noticed that my car begins to "stink" after running for a minute or two. I took it into the dealership and the service advisor states that I have three of four fuel injectors that have failed. I asked the service advisor about the warranty and she states those are not under warranty. I have researched this issue and have found that many many people have had problems with their fuel injectors and Honda will not replace them under warranty. I am sending this complaint because I feel that this issue should be covered under a recall warranty, since it has been noted in other models that the fuel injectors were recalled and repaired. Please help.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The dealer advised the contact to bring the vehicle back if it stalled again because the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact refused to take the vehicle. The vehicle was repaired under the recall. The contact stated she was advised that she had 4 blown fuel injectors and that it was a safety issue. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue but confirmed the contact had to pay out of pocket for the repair, and a case was opened. The contact stated that the dealer called and informed her that there was only one blown fuel injector and that it was not a safety issue. The contact agreed to pay to have the fuel injector repaired. The vehicle was currently being repaired. The failure mileage was unavailable.

We pulled into a restraunt on 7/7/24 and as we were parking the car my wife started to put on the brakes. The car accelerated and ran over the curb in front of the car. There was no damage to the car that I could see. She has been driving this car since 2019 with no problem. I thought maybe she stepped on the gas instead but she said no. There were no floor mats on top of the gas pedal so it must be something with the car. I read on the internet of other people having the same problem. I hope we can get this repaired ASAP.

Blown cylinder head gasket required replacement by dealership. Per the dealership, the car displayed failure codes P0302 and P0303. Dealership covered 80% of the cost as "good will" but also mentioned this is a "known issue." The Check Engine Light had displayed just prior to the gasket failure. A day prior my wife and son described the vehicle as "shaking" when the car started (likely related to the engine misfiring as indicated by the P0302 and P0303 error codes found by the dealer) Safety was at risk as wife was driving vehicle when the gasket failed - resulting in a loss of power to the engine and a potential risk for an accident in traffic. Luckily the problem happened less than a quarter mile away from our home and my wife was able to navigate traffic back to our home at a low rate of speed.

Will driving at high speeds turning slightly to the left results in the steering wheel feeling sticky. In fact I can take my hands off the wheel and the wheel will remain stuck in the left of center position. When I put my hands back on the wheel, It takes a bit of force to recenter the wheel. When my car is warm, turning at low speeds results in a creeking/grinding noise. The noise is very pronounced when I turn to the left and slight when I turn to the right. The sharper the turn the worse the noise is. During parking, the noice is very pronounced. I took it to a trusted mechanic and was told that the rack and pinion needs to be replaced. The estimate was $3000. I have 66000 miles on the vehicle.

I bought the car brand new and from day 1 the backup camera display from the instrument is black and white. I scheduled an appointment at the dealer I brought the car from and they said they can’t do anything since Honda can’t figure out what is wrong yet. I called Honda motor directly tried to file a claim and I just get kept transferring around. It’s hard to see when at night time with display black and white.

The steering wheel began wiggling when driving straight. Then when I was completing a turn I began to audibly hear a clicking sound, followed by feeling a click when completing a turn. I took the vehicle into the Hardin Honda dealership to have the problem diagnosed. Upon assessment they were able to replicate the issue and determined the issue was that the steering gearbox needed to be replaced. There were no indications from the car’s operating system that anything wasn’t working correctly. It was upon my own assessment of having driven this vehicle for the last six years that I determined the steering experience was unusual.

Several months ago, I noticed my steering wheel was sticky. While driving it is clearly difficult to turn the wheel. So I bought new tires and had a wheel alignment. The problem continues. I have just over 42,000 miles on the CRV and was under 40,000 when I noticed the problem. I just took it into the dealership and was told it was gear box issue that they are aware of and that would cost me over $3,000 to fix. When I googled this, I found that there are many complaints about this issue. Honda should recognize this problem and recall affected cars.

While driving the car, especially at higher speeds, the steering wheel begins to stick, making it difficult to stay in lane without jerking the wheel to correct for the sticking problem. The car was taken to Honda dealer, who confirmed that the problem is with the steering wheel box, which the dealer said needs to be replaced. We were advised that this is a defect that has been identified for other Honda CR-Vs from the same year, but that our specific VIN is not in the recall group yet. We have notified Honda headquarters that we have had this problem. We are awaiting a back-ordered new steering wheel box, which we are told could take months to arrive. We do not feel the car is safe to drive in the mean time and are using a loaner from the dealership.

Currently I live in Georgia state and when I went for service at local dealer, they shown me most of the places under the vehicle was rusted and not sure how much time it will run. I know Honda has recalled many Honda crvs which ran on coldest places but I am not able to find a recall for this 2014 year to fix that rust problem. Could you please help with get that fixed. Thanks, [XXX] . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

When I am driving at the regular speed limit, of 55 mph, not slower, and on smoother road pavements, there seems to be a resistance, where the steering wheel sticks in one spot. I have to use pressure on the wheel in order for it to move to the correct position for driving again. We purchased the vehicle on November 13, 2021, with 36,000 miles on it and it now has 56,000 miles on it. We didn't notice any issues until the winter of 2022-'23 on a long trip. It was windy and we presumed that was the reason for the fluctuation in the steering, however the problem persisted on days with no wind. The problem is getting more noticeable, and we think it should be addressed by the Honda Company. We took the vehicle in for service and had a tire alignment done however the issue has still persisted. We were informed, by credible people, that sometimes it just needs an alignment to alleviate the sticking sensation. I have information of several other 2018 CR-V's having this steering issue and there is no recall for repair on these vehicles. If my husband or I would be driving on a freeway at 70 mph, and the steering would stick enough where strict corrective action was needed, the probability of a serious accident would increase considerably. Upon further research, the vehicles mentioned in the articles, needed to have the 'steering rack' replaced. This is over $3000.00 if we pay out of pocket. If this problem persists, there could be very serious accidents and I think if the Honda Company is aware of this, they should willingly offer to fix the problem at no cost. There were no warning lights, messages or other symptoms prior to this issue. I am hopeful that Honda Company will listen to these concerns and take action to correct the problem before there are tragic results.
