Cars AWD orange lights were on, on cold days (6th and 7th January, 2014, est). Outside temperature was between -5F to -10F (as indicated by cars dash). I do not have a garage. Felt cars front wheels were the only ones getting power. I don't think AWD was working.
2012 Honda CRV makes a rear end hydraulic noise from the rear differential that has gotten progressively worse during the first year of ownership. The sound is made as the vehicle is coming to a stop and once again when the vehicle starts. It is a safety concern that had been reported to Honda in four separate instances begin when the vehicle had 2,497 and the last event was at 7,800.
Bought this car new about a month ago. The only problem I have been having is that at certain times, usually at slower speeds, when I step on the gas there is a 2-3 second delay before the car accelerates. During this hesitation period, the engine does not rev, and the car just coasts. This has happened 10-12 time this past month. This is very dangerous when I am trying to merge into faster moving traffic. I took my car to the dealer, but they could not duplicate the condition nor find anything wrong. They told me they reported the issue to Honda national.
I was driving on interstate 95 at 65 mph. I accidentally lightly bumped the gear shift and it changed from drive to neutral. My speed decreased abruptly/unexpectedly with vehicles traveling 70 mph and above behind and beside me. It took a few seconds to determine what was wrong with my car and why it was slowing down. Thank god no one was too close! this is a life threatening situation. The dealership in orange city, Florida, didn't know the answer but said that the other Honda CRV's do the same thing. There is a button on the side of the gear shift which I thought you must depress to change gears. From my experience, it is not necessary to use this button.
2012 Honda CRV. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle gas pedal. The consumer stated, when he stepped on the accelerator pedal, the vehicle would bogged down. He would have to pump the accelerator pedal, in order to get the vehicle to move. The dealer was unable to find a problem.

Whenever I placed my car on parking an the E-brake if it was on a slope the car would keep going as if it was on drive or reverse. It happened a couple of times. I took it to the dealer and they said nothing was wrong. When I took it to another shop they saw that the brake pads were worn out already with barely a couple of miles from new.
