THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2005 VEHICLE REPEATEDLY BLOW OUT BULBS LEAVING ME WITH ONLY ONE AND POTENTIALLY NO LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE BULBS IS NO MORE THAN 4 MONTHS. THEY ARE UNRELIABLE AND MAY CEASE WORKING WHILE ON THE ROAD REDUCING MY VISIBILITY IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AT NIGHT. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE THE SAME AS THE ONE FOR THE RECALL OF 2002-2004 CR-VS AND HAS BEEN REPORTED BY NUMEROUS OWNERS. I CONTACTED HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VIN OF MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED AND UNLESS THE VIN WAS PART OF THE RECALL, THEY WOULD NOT HONOR CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. (CASE # 06225907) REQUEST INVESTIGATION TO HAVE 2005 CR-VS ADDED TO THE RECALL.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR FEELS AS THOUGH IT SKIPS WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED, THEN WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT, THE ENGINE MOMENTARILY "DIES", THE GENERAL WARNING SIGNAL AND THE VSA/ABS/AIRBAG/BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON AND THEN THE ENGINE SNAPS BACK ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY RETRIEVED FAILURE CODES IN THE ABS CONTROL MODULE: YAW RATE SENSOR FAILURE; SENSOR CLUSTER FAILURE. THE DEALER RESET THE CODES, COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND TOLD ME TO COME BACK IF IT DOES IT AGAIN. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND HAS BEEN PARKED SINCE 6/1/17. I CONTACTED HONDA AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER, BUT HAVE NOT SPOKEN TO ANYONE SINCE FILING THE COMPLAINT. AFTER RESEARCHING THE SYMPTOMS ON THE INTERNET, I DISCOVERED SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN I RESEARCHED THE CODES, I DISCOVERED THAT THE NHTSA HAD HONDA RECALL THE 2005 PILOT, ACURA MDX AND ACURA RLS. I HAVE A VIDEO OF IT HAPPENING BUT AM UPLOADING SCREENSHOTS. BUT I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE THE VIDEO, THE SAME VIDEO I SHOWED THE DEALER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS EVER SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR, WE'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE LOW BEAM BULBS EVERY FEW WEEKS. THEY BURN OUT AT COMPLETELY RANDOM TIMES (ITS HAPPENED BOTH WHILE IN MOTION AND STATIONARY, IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS AS WELL AS OUT DRIVING THROUGH COUNTRYSIDE, FREEWAYS; BASICALLY EVERYWHERE). NOT ONLY IS THIS AN INCONVENIENCE DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF MONEY SPENT ON REPLACEMENTS, IT'S ALSO EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THEY'VE BURNED OUT ON NIGHT DRIVES IN THE COUNTRYSIDE WHERE OUR ONLY OPTION WAS TO USE HIGH BEAMS THE REST OF THE WAY, ETC. UNACCEPTABLE THAT HONDA HAS NOT YET ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S VERY WELL DOCUMENTED ONLINE AS BEING AN ISSUE. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE UP THROUGH 2004 CR-V'S BUT THEY'VE NOT EXTENDED TO THE 05 MODEL YEAR.

I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING TO CHANGE THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS GO OUT AND STOP WORKING WHILE OPERATING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT BULBS, AND HAVE DETERMINED IT IS NOT ANY PARTICULAR TYPE OR QUALITY. THE NEW BULB WILL TYPICALLY LAST 1-3 MONTHS. THIS HAS BEEN COSTLY, AS WELL AS DANGEROUS FOR MY WIFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I ALSO PREFER TO DRIVE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON DURING THE DAY FOR SAFETY, WHICH IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE WHEN THEY ARE GOING OUT EVERY 1-3 MONTHS. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS, AND HAD FOUND IT TO BE A VERY COMON PROBLEM. I FOUND A POSSIBLE RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM ON THE 2002-2004 MODELS, BUT MINE IS A 2005 MODEL IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OTHERS ARE REPORTING. FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, AND OTHERS ON THE ROADWAY, AS WELL AS THE NUMEROUS OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, I WOULD REQUEST THIS PROBLEM BE CONSIDERED AS A SAFETY RECALL. I ALSO HAVE DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING DATES AND MILEAGE FOR EACH BULB CHANGE WHICH IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

PURCHASED NEW IN MARCH, 2005, WE QUICKLY LEARNED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON OUR 2005 HONDA CRV BURN OUT FREQUENTLY, USUALLY ON BOTH SIDES AND WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF EACH OTHER. WHEN REPLACED, THEY WILL LAST ONLY A YEAR OR SO BEFORE BURNING OUT AGAIN. WE NOTICE THEY'RE BURNED OUT WHEN WE'RE DRIVING. WE USE THE HEADLIGHTS BOTH DURING THE DAY (FOR SAFETY) AND OF COURSE AT NIGHT. WE'VE TRIED SEVERAL DIFFERENT TYPES OF REPLACEMENT LAMPS, BUT NONE SEEM TO CHANGE THE PATTERN OF LAMP LIFE. MOST RECENTLY, I'VE REPLACED THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS FOUR TIMES (2 EACH SIDE) WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS. LAST NIGHT WHEN TESTED AFTER REPLACEMENT, THE PASSENGER SIDE LAMP ONLY GLOWED (DUE TO A BAD GROUND CONNECTION?) AND MYSTERIOUSLY, THE BRIGHT BEAM LAMP ON THE SAME SIDE HAD ALSO QUIT WORKING. I HAVE DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY ONE MILLION MILES IN OTHER VEHICLES OVER THE PAST 27 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH SUCH FREQUENCY. BECAUSE OF THE FREQUENCY AND SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS DUE TO THE UNEXPECTED RECURRENCES, I HAVE NO CHOICE NOW BUT TO ASK THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS ENOUGH PROBLEM WITH OTHER MODEL YEARS OF THE SAME VEHICLE THAT IT HAS GENERATED SAFETY RECALLS. PLEASE WIDEN YOUR INVESTIGATION AND RESULTS TO INCLUDE SUBSEQUENT MODEL YEARS OF THE HONDA CRV'S, SPECIFICALLY 2005.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY, THE BACK WINDOW LATCH POPPED OPEN. I WAS NOT IN A PLACE WHERE I COULD ADDRESS IT @ THAT TIME, I WAS APPRACHING A TUNNEL. UNFORTUNATELY, BY THE TIME I COULD PULL OUT OF TRAFFIC, THE WINDOW WAS OPEN COMPLETELY. KIND OF A SCARY SITUATION. IT POPPED OPEN ONE OTHER TIME WHILE PARKED @ MY HOME.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA CR-V. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V029000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I HAVE REPLACED THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT BULBS IN MY 2005 HONDA CRV 4 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. I WAS CAUTIOUS WITH THE LIGHTS DURING INSTILLATION MAKING SURE TO DO EVERYTHING RIGHT. FINALLY, DECIDED TO BRING UP THE ISSUE AS MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE ROAD LAST NIGHT WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE WENT OUT. IT DECREASED HER VISIBILITY ON A COUNTRY HIGHWAY CAUSING HER TO HAVE TO SLOW DOWN A LITTLE TO MAKE SURE SHE COULD SEE. IT MADE THE CONDITIONS UNSAFE AND IT ALSO BRINGS UP THE POSSIBILITY OF RECEIVING A TRAFFIC TICKET DUE TO THE LIGHT BEING OUT. LUCKILY, SHE MADE IT HOME WITH NO ISSUES. HOWEVER, THE NEXT DAY, SHE TURNED ON THE CAR AND THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS WERE OUT. THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN CONTINUALLY GOING OUT NO MATTER THE DRIVING SITUATION. BASED ON MY INTERNET SEARCHING, OTHERS SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND I NOTICED HONDA HAS A RECALL FOR 2002-2004 HEADLIGHT ISSUES BUT I BELIEVE THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE OFFERED TO THE LATER MODELS AS WELL. I BELIEVE IT TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND NOT THE HEADLIGHTS THAT I KEEP HAVING TO CONSTANTLY BUY. PLEASE HELP WITH ADDRESSING THE ISSUE TO HONDA.

TAKATA RECALL THIS CAR IS UNDER RECALL ACCORDING TO NHTSA'S DECEMBER 2016 THIRD AMENDED COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE RECALL IS NOT SHOWING UP UNDER A VIN SEARCH FOR THE CAR. HONDA HAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS VIN IS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA RECALL, BUT IT CANNOT SEND OUT A RECALL NOTICE UNTIL NHTSA ACKNOWLEDGES THE BATCH OF AFFECTED VINS THAT HONDA CONFIRMS IT SENT IT TO NHTSA ON OR AROUND JANUARY 10, 2017 (HOWEVER PURSUANT TO THE ABOVE REFERENCED COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER, THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER RECALL NO LATER THAN JUNE, 2016). I CANNOT GET A DEALERSHIP TO PERFORM THE REQUIRED REPAIR UNTIL HONDA SENDS OUT THE RECALL NOTICE. THAT WON'T HAPPEN UNTIL NHTSA ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE VIN, PER HONDA, IS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. HONDA FORWARDED ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO NHTSA WEEKS AGO. PLEASE PROVIDE EXPLANATIONS FOR THESE DELAYS (SPECIFICALLY AS TO WHY THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL UNDER THE TIMELINE MANDATED BY NHTSA, AND WHY NHTSA HAS NOT YET ACKNOWLEDGED THE VINS FROM HONDA EVEN SINCE JANUARY 10, 2017). MORE PRESSING, HOWEVER, IS THE NEED TO GET THIS VEHICLE REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. IT IS IN THE HIGHEST PRIORITY GROUP ACCORDING TO NHTSA'S COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER. PLEASE PROVIDE ASSISTANCE IN GETTING THE NECESSARY AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PERFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE RIGHT AWAY. THANK YOU. PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT PURSUANT TO JENNIFER TIMIAN'S INSTRUCTIONS IN RESPONSE TO MY EMAIL TO HER OF 2/6/17. THANK YOU.
