I experienced a concerning incident while driving recently, and I would like to bring attention to several issues with my vehicle. Firstly, while turning onto a main street at a speed of 35mph, my vehicle's automatic emergency braking system unexpectedly activated, despite there being no obstruction in front, beside, or behind me. This occurred at a green light as I approached the beginning of the intersection. Additionally, I have been facing multiple problems with my stereo, including glitches, turning off unexpectedly, and the brightness becoming engaged and freezing. I had previously reported these issues to the dealership within the first two years of purchasing my vehicle in 2019. However, the technicians only unplugged and replugged the stereo, assuring me it would be "good." I’m still currently dealing with the problem of the stereo glitches in 2024. Given these concerns, I am worried about the possibility of future issues arising and the potential for a collision due to my vehicle stopping itself randomly while driving. As a responsible driver with a family to consider, I kindly request immediate assistance in resolving these matters. To address the specific questions: 1. The component or system that failed or malfunctioned is the automatic emergency braking system. 2. Yes, the vehicle and its components are available for inspection upon request. 3. The safety of both myself and others was put at risk due to the sudden activation of the automatic emergency braking system. 4. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. 5. The vehicle and its components have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others. 6. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the failure of the automatic emergency braking system.

I purchased 2023 Honda CRV AWD LX [XXX]. I took the vehicle to Honda World 1 Auto Center Drive, Louisville, Ky 40299. Advisor is Kathy Schnapp. She informed me there were metal shavings in the rear differential. Replacing the fluid is not covered under warranty. The issue is not that it is not covered but Ms Schnapp stated most Honda CRVs with All Wheel Drive experience metal shavings in the rear differential. I am wondering if the NHTSA has been notified of this and why there has not been more warning of this problem and recalls issued to repair them. What rights do I have about resolving this especially if it's common? I appreciate any information on this. Thank you....

Steering is sticking when driving at highway speeds. Takes extra effort to move the wheel when trying to make small steering corrections. This causes the vehicle to become unstable at high speeds .

The steering wheel will "lock up" and need to be pushed in order to gain full control of the vehicle. This happens most often in turns where the steering wheel will not respond to normal pressure and require excessive force to be used to straighten move the wheel back and forth.

My daughter was driving my car and she noticed this terrible smell and some of the lights came on to check the engine so we took it to get looked at and they said they didn’t see anything wrong. So she was driving it and then all the lights came on and the car would not drive. We had it taken to a place to get looked at and they said they couldn’t fix it so we had to take it to Honda and they said it needed new fuel injectors and this was not cheap. I was very upset with Honda because they know this is an issue with this year and make of car but they don’t want to pay to fix it and they never fixed the recall because he said they do not have the parts until later in the year. That is ridiculous. I’ve never had any problems with Honda until now and I’ve had many Hondas. My daughter could have been hit by another car or anything could have happened. They need to pay for this $2,000 repair. Thank you

Since I have owned this car bought in 2017 the info screen randomly turns black and beeps. You cannot tell at that is going on with the car. You can’t adjust the heat, defroster or the radio. This has happened hundreds of times. Honda says they have no fix. I read you have to pull over turn the car off, than start it up and hold the volume button down on the radio until it asks you to reboot the system. Ridiculous, I’ve never had a car with so many problems.

WINDSHIELD DEFROST ON DRIVERS SIDE PRODUCES NO AIR OR HEAT. WINDSHIELD BECAME FROSTY AND HAD TO PULL CAR OVER BECAUSE OF LACK OF VISIBILITY. ALSO HEAT ON DRIVER'S SIDE DOES NOT WORK, WHICH IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT MAY BE RELATED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED. THEY FLUSHED THE HEATCORE. WHICH DID NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM .

My car was well maintained with less than 40k miles. One evening, when I was trying to get back home from my office, my car didn't start. I called a Honda dealer. They suspected battery issues and jump-start requirements. I called my AAA insurance for roadside assistance. They did jump-start the car and said my battery was completely DEAD. Charged me around 213$ for a battery replacement. I drove back home. The next day morning, my car didn't start again! I had to get the car towed to my dealership. The dealer was unable to figure out what went wrong. He kept the car under his observation for a night and it worked fine. When I went to collect the car after payment of about 120$ (diagnosis, cleaning, and testing charges by the dealership), the car turned on by itself with a blinking red light on the dashboard along with a battery and other lamp symbols turned on. The dealer said he found the root cause and said it could be a BCM Module issue. The BCM Module is supposed to coordinate and function many electronic safety components in the car. The car's electric components turn on by themselves and drain out the battery!! I was very shocked to see BCM's failure and it could have potential SAFETY HAZARDS for consumers!! Please look into this issue.

I purchased a 2015 Honda CR-V on 01/16/2024. The suv has been blowing hot air for the last 2 weeks. I took the suv to a Mechanic Shop. They input freon. The suv started making loud noises. It was throwing the freon all over the engine. I was warned that the sludge would damage the engine and belts. I was told not to push the A/C button since lots of damage can happen. The repair is $2800.

When exiting car sound is heard that car is locked. Then same sound is heard again seconds later. I have DroneMobile app on phone so I checked status & found car reopened. I have had DroneMobile was installed in 2018 or 2019. It happens all the time as far as I can tell. The 2nd fob is in my house & not near car. Hard to know if anything will be secure in car or safe to enter. Could this have happened after car software update?
