This has happened on numerous occasions. After stopping for a red light, nothing happens for several seconds when trying to accelerate, then car jumps forward. I have come close to rear ending the car in front of me several times. Am going to my dealer tomorrow. I have seen a number of similar complaints on the internet, so its not my imagination.

Our 2014 Honda CR-V (picked up the car 11/14/14) has a problem with hesitation during acceleration. Had 125 miles on the CR-V when the incident occurred in a local shopping center. After entering the center and going about 15 mph I stepped on the gas pedal and nothing. After a few seconds as I gently again pressed down on the accelerator the vehicle lurched forward. Scared the heck out of my wife and I. I hit the brakes. Then slowly pressed down on the gas pedal and the car responded okay. We went another 200 feet or so and was making a turn into a parking aisle when it did it again. Two people crossing the lot came close to being hit. This is very dangerous and unsafe. We will be returning to the dealership and want this fixed before someone is seriously hurt or worse.

Summary: My Honda CR-V has a problem with hesitation during acceleration after a pause (let off the gas for a second). This problem is a few seconds delay between the time I let off the gas and the time the vehicle actually accelerates. I have had two very close calls. The problem occurs mostly around 15 to 20 mph. But has occurred at 65 mph. At 65 I let off the gas, slowed to 60 then tried to accelerate but continued to slow down to 52 before the car accelerated. I've talked with the service manager, mike sheets, at ocean Honda, ca. He has acknowledged that there is a problem but states that they can do nothing until they get an S.B. from Honda.

Apply brakes for normal stop, ease off throttle pedal. When road is clear, release brakes, apply pressure to throttle pedal. No response. Add pressure - no response. Add more pressure and full speed ahead. The sudden acceleration puts you hard against the seat, with sudden reaction needed to avoid an accident with the car ahead of you going the same way. Entering a freeway could be fun!!! this is a frequent occurance, at almost every stop and proceed. From what I hear about air bags in some cars, the sudden acceleration may be a cause of air bag release which would complicate the problem.

Vehicle hesitates when accelerating from stop. This has happened several times when pulling into or across traffic. The hesitation is momentary but could be very dangerous.

My Honda CRV has a problem with hesitation on acceleration that seems to be caused by the computer safety feature that keeps the engine from accelerating or running away when the brake is applied. This feature has a few second delay between the time the brake is released and the engine accelerating. When this happens while pulling into traffic it could cause an accident. If is especially noticeable while driving on mountain roads where you need to touch the brakes and then accelerate. The vehicle has been taken to sons Honda, mcdonough, ga twice and they have found no problem with the car. They have acknowledged that there is a problem but state that they have no answer on how to repair it. I have written to Honda regarding this problem but have not head anything from them.

Since the day I picked up the new CR-V it has had an intermittent problem when trying to accelerate. This is particularly dangerous when trying to change lanes in traffic or avoid another vehicle. It occurs randomly, 3-4 times a day. I will be moving at a moderate speed, 15 to 40 mph, and when I press the accelerator gently, the car slows down!! if I press harder, nothing happens for a few seconds and then it accelerates rapidly! this is very disconcerting. This problem is similar to NHTSA id number 10608235 but occurs only when I am already moving. I've taken the CRV to 2 different Honda dealers and they test drive it but the problem doesn't happen so they say it must be "normal". it isn't. it's dangerous! someone who actually understands how this vehicle works should be able to figure it out.

On June 21, 2014 at approx 9:34 am, as I was coming out of my parking space to turn left, as I took my foot off the brake pad, slightly touched the gas pedal *& my car shot like a bullet! it was going so fast it was hard for me to control it (it was faster than being on the highway); I pressed on the brake pads & the car wouldn't slow down. I managed to make another left (as straight would have caused me to crash into the bldg) while the vehicle is moving at an unknown accelerated speed. As I turned left, going around vehicles, I pressed harder on the brake pad & the car shot even faster than before! I went through the fence & into a sedan that was parked across the street from the parking lot, my vehicle jumped & landed on the driver side parallel to the sedan. The airbags deployed, deflated, I took off my seatbelt, went to open the doors but the doors wouldn't open. I was frantic, the car was smoking, red & green lights were on the dashboard. I tried exiting via the sunroof; that worked, that's how I got out of the vehicle (with the assistance of people passing by). I had just leased this vehicle on Tuesday, June 17, 2014; it was a Honda CRV 2014. Since then I've found some articles online where individuals have experienced almost the same frightening situation that I encountered (google acceleration when braking in Honda CRV). I'm beyond scared to ride in a car or a taxi; I'm not sure when I would ever want to get in a car again. I'm even afraid of crossing the street when there's Honda at a stoplight. I can hardly sleep because the events keep playing in my head; I'm paranoid! I'm still experiencing aches and pains from the accident, no broken bones however. I'm seeking to sue Honda for what could have been an ending of my life, due to their product defect. Can you help me" can you refer to me a product liability attorney that would pursue a suit"

My Honda CRV 2014 - from a stop it hesitates when I accelerate, nothing happens, then it jumps ahead. This happens almost all the time. I feel this is a dangerous defect. I am afraid to go on a highway ramp when you have to react quickly to advance onto the road. Another problem is when at a red light when the light turns green I step on the gas nothing happens then it jumps ahead. I could hit the car in front of me!! I took the car to my dealer in tenafly, N.J. two times. They found nothing wrong because it didn't happen to them. I am very concerned for my safety and others. I don't know if anyone else has complained.

Rapid and uncontrolled deceleration of the vehicle in an unsafe manner while driving.we were almost hit by the following car.we lost of all instrumentation, all of the warnings lights indicate failure, speedometer, tachometer, airbags, vsa, brakes, ABS, etc.. the car has been repaired 4 times. #1(4/4/14) replaced vsa module and bleed brakes+ reset codes, #2 (4/8/14) replace 2 wiring harnesses and verify connections+ reset codes, #3(5/8/14) measure all can buss voltages & drive with meter+ reset codes, #4(6/10/14)dealer thinks they have found a loose ground & replaced ECM/PCM module+reset codes, drove a couple hundred miles then returned. The loose pin may have been from replacing the harness and removing connectors multiple occasions. Vehicle has been in for 30 days of service combined. In 1857 miles the vehicle has failed 4 times. You have no speed indication while driving during and after the event. Feels like the brakes come on or car is forced into low gear throwing passengers forward and causing following cars to evade the car. There are many error codes during these events. After shutting the car off and restarting car multiple times all indicators will return to normal except for the check engine light. We have pictures and video of three of the events.

I bought a new Honda CRV 2014 model on 10/04/2013. On 10/24/2013, I wore flip flops while going to pick up my son from the school, which is 5 miles away from my home. My leg got stuck and I couldn't move my leg from gas pedal to apply brakes, as I entered the school premises. Car started to accelerate as my flip flop got stuck in the groove between plastic and metal trim next to the gas pedal. I swerve of the road and hit a tree to avoid collision with the vehicle in front of me. I think there is an issue with the way the trim is designed in Honda CRV 2014 models. If someone wearing a flip flop"S while driving, it can get stuck in the trim and cause fatal accidents. I didn"T see this issue in older model years of CRV. My family is traumatized by the accident and very scared to sit or travel in the car. I was fortunate to come out of it without any major injuries but this may not be the case for others.
