  SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT

  THE HEAD RESTRAINTS ON THE FRONT SEATS TILT FORWARD WAY TOO MUCH. THIS CAUSES THE PEOPLE SITTING IN THE FRONT SEAT, ESPECIALLY THE DRIVER, TO HAVE TO HOLD THEIR HEAD DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS STRESSES THE MUSCLE IN THE NECK CAUSING FATIGUE TO THE NECK. THIS COULD RESULT IN SOME DRIVERS HAVING ACCIDENTS AND CAUSING INJURY. I AM TALKING ABOUT THE 2008 HONDA CR-V. THIS NEEDS TO BE CHECKED AS IT COULD HARM SOME DRIVERS. *TR

  ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:LINKAGES

  I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON 11/23/06 AND ON 1/27/07, THE P1009 CHECK ENGINE EMISSION FAILURE CODE CAME UP ON MY NAVIGATION SCREEN JUST AS MY CAR SUDDENLY LOST ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE OR MAINTAIN ITS CURRENT SPEED. MY SPEED WAS REDUCE IMMEDIATELY FROM 60 MPH TO 20 MPH AND THE RPM DROPPED FROM 3 TO BELOW 1. THE CAR BECAME SLUGGISH AND ACTED AS THOUGH IT WAS STALLING. THE CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY SENT IN FOR REPAIR AND I WAS TOLD THE SOLENOID WAS NOT INSTALLED CORRECTLY WHICH CAUSE THE VEHICLE TIMING TO BE INCORRECT. TODAY IS 2/28/07 AND THE CAR WAS TOWED AWAY BECAUSE THE SAME ERROR OCCURRED ALONG WITH A NEW ERROR. THE VSA FAILURE ALERT APPEARED ON MY NAVIGATION SCREEN FOLLOWED BY THE P1009 CHECK VEHICLE EMISSION ERROR. IT HAS BEEN 1 MONTH TO THE TEE AND THE SAME SYMPTOMS REAPPEARED. THE CAR LOST ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE STALLED SUDDENLY. *NM
