Door locks make a loud noise and now aren't working right. They should not do this! this vehicle is my daughter's vehicle. She took ownership in July 2018.
My front passenger rear left passenger doors along with my trunk are lock and not opening; my vehicle gives the clicks but only two doors open; I can't even open them from the inside it's too hard and not moving
The front and back passenger side door locks and make clicking sounds whether you are moving or still. When it locks you can not get out or in the vehicle. Back liftgate does the same thing. We have to crawl across the back seat to retrieve what is the very back. It happens if we are still or moving. The problem started a little over a year ago and has gotten worse.
My CRV has acceleration problems when it idles in traffic for long periods it looses the ability to accelerate. It starts to sputter and then dies. But does start back up after sitting for a few minutes it also drives great when outside temps are below 68 degrees but has poor acceleration when outside temps are 70 degrees and above also I noticed there is a gas smell on the oil dip stick. Honda mechanics say they don't know what's wrong with it and there is no check engine light coming on to give me an idea of what is going on with the vehicle this happens no matter if I'm driving on a city road or private road my experience with this is in stop and go traffic that causes the vehicle to have to sit for long periods of time and idle when the acceleration problem happens I can only go 5 mph also vehicle stalls while trying to cross intersections after waiting on a traffic lights to change can someone help me please.

The door lock actuators were under a previous recall for a defect on the part which expired in 2015 - sb 14-083 and 14-084. The problem could become a safety problems if someone gets in a car accident or has a car fire and either the driver or their passengers cannot get out of the vehicle quickly unless the driver unlocks the door for them and you have to quickly open the vehicle door before it locks on you again.
I purchase Honda CRV 2008 2 years ago and my ac went and now only blows hot air. Honda deal says there was recall that expired 7 years after original purchase date that would have covered a damage ac compressor. There tons of complaints on this issue. My car has less then 100K and they won't honor it anymore. Very expensive to replace 1200K or more
This is a complaint on the law. I keep getting harrassing recalls for a car that was sold abroad because the wi dmv shows me as th last registered owner. Honda will not stop mailing me because they say the law requires they repeatedly send notices to the last known registered owner. The dmv cannot do anything because I am the last known registered owner. The law should allow for me to remove my name voluntarily.
Door locks: 1st - passenger rear door locks/ unlocks and makes bad gear stripping sound. Sometimes passenger can't get out. 2nd - drivers rear door will not lock. Kids can open door while in motion plus now thieves can enter vehicle.
I have 4 cooper discoverer srx size P225-65-14 tires and noticed a recall on cooper tires..I have been noticing the tire pressure light is on in my car but the tires have "proper pressure" and I noticed it's seemingly harder to steer while my car is in motion.more so starting and stopping.or lower speeds.this has been happening for the past several weeks with shorter distances of about 30 miles or less
Took CRV in for door lock recall. Driver side was making noise. That was fixed. Then passenger side started making noise. When I took in in to modesto Honda they said that it was no longer covered. I would have to pay for the repair.
Air conditioning failed, according to recall notice, due to bad design. Auto has only 90,000 miles. Which is less than 100,000 miles as defined in recall notice. Can anything be done to fix the failure? thanks
Honda replaced both the drivers and passenger front airbags. I was in an accident April 2017. I was broadsided, drivers door was impacted. My head went hrough the drivers window. None of the side airbags inflated. The body shop was disturbed that the airbags did not deploy. I have been in physical therapy since the accident. The va has been supplying medical treatment. Honda denied responsibility although they never saw the car. My insurance company progressive will not repair the faulty airbags because they were faulty before the accident. Westport Honda where I originally purchased the car is not interested in taking it as a trade in because of the known airbag problem. What am I supposed to do? I'm afraid to drive the car. I can't sell the car without revealing the known problem with the airbags. The dashboard display light comes on without warning indicating the side airbags are not working. The indicator is off most of the time. I never know when it's going to come on and how long it's going to be on. Honda indicated to me that the system needs to be tested at my expense. I am disabled and can not afford to have this done. Or able to travel to such a facility.
There was a recall for the drivers door actuator in 2015. There was a warranty extension for the other doors. I brought my car to a Honda dealer where they replaced the drivers door actuator and checked the rest. The back passengers door was not staying locked so they replaced that one.I now have a problem with the front passenger door where you can not unlock it. I took it to a different Honda dealer and was told it wasn't covered by the warranty extension anymore. I paid $286.27 to have it fixed. I think it's very dangerous not to be able to get out of your car door, especially if there was an emergency. I am hoping for some reimbursement from Honda.
2008 Honda CRV rear doors left and right side failed to lock at all time. Front right side failed to lock at all time. Trunk lock actuator motor failed some time open some time stack.
Air conditioner clutch fan is not engaging with the compressor, and blows out hot air. Honda has an extended warranty for the clutch fan and compressor that they know are faulty parts, but I did not receive a recall letter regarding the parts in time to get them repaired. My car is now past the mileage listed on the warranty by a few thousand miles. Honda wants to charge $1,100 for new parts and labor. Honda dealer wants american Honda to "send an email" to the dealer, upon contacting american Honda, they want the service manager to honor the warranty. It is a game of "pass the buck". also, I was without my vehicle for four months last year due to the takata airbag recall so I am not happy with the safety of this particular vehicle. Hondas are not inexpensive vehicles. There should be a hard recall on these air conditioner systems that are faulty, and Honda knows it.
Driver was parked/idling in parking lot when loud explosion happened. Driver thought someone had rear ended her. Two bystanders were concerned and came over to check on driver. They said no one had hit her. They found a filter, gasket and a piece of insulation under the car. Upon inspection driver saw that the front bumper had partially blown out from the car, it was detached under the hood, under the grill and around the wheel well. Also a large chunk of wheel well is missing. Car was towed to driver's mechanic. Mechanic determined the A/C compressor exploded, subsequently blowing shrapnel throughout the entire system, ruining the entire system as well as causing said body damage. Mechanic also determined that the filter, gasket and sock had blown out from the bottom of the A/C compressor, the blast from the explosion was the apparent cause of the body damage. A complete report from a body shop will be obtained today. Driver was quite concerned about the massive damage done and how easily someone near the car at the time could have been hurt. Driver was also concerned about what her response would have been if she were driving down the road at the time of explosion. Driver is a grandma, she meets up with her daughter and granddaughter in very similar situations on a regular basis. The 7 year old granddaughter could have easily been in the blast radius. A complaint was filed with Honda to which they quickly denied any responsibility. A class action lawsuit was filed against Honda and won in 2012 regarding exploding A/C compressors in 2008 crvs. However Honda was absolved of any responsibility for said vehicles after 7 years or 100,000 miles. The CRV in question has 120,000 miles.
On June 23, 2017, at about 8:10 a.M., I turned in to a dry cleaners store at 5702 everhard road, corpus christi, Texas. As I was slowly turning into a parking space and applying my brakes, my 2008 Honda dr-V accelerated on it's own, at a speed so fast I could not stop it, even though I was applying the brakes as hard as I could. The CR-V traveled about 20-25 feet and hit a pillar of the building head on. The CR-V hit the pillar with such force that it rebounded back approximately 5 feet from the point of impact. The front of the car was crushed in and the driver's air bag inflated. The sudden, unexplained acceleration of the CR-V on it's own caused the damage to the front end of the car. My foot was on the brakes the entire time and the CR-V would not stop.
