At about 40K miles I started getting a grinding/rattling noise on some cold starts. Took it to the dealer but they could not replicate it. A year later I research the issue myself and find out its the extremely common vtc actuator noise. I contact Honda of America who tells me to have the dealer take a look at it. Again they cant replicate it. Im now at 65K miles and out of my warranty range, sound is on every start after car has been off for at least half hour. Its loud enough to scare pedestrians walking past when I start it in public places (very embarrassing). Honda bulletin says "all" 2014 have a "defective" vtc actuator posted in a 2016 bulletin. Why did they not replace mine when I made the complaint. Seen reports of this causing wear to the timing chain and a few thousand dollars worth of repairs. Needs to be a recall.

Safecar.gov 2-20-17 I keep hearing a sound when I start my vehicle in the morning. Sometimes it happens after work when I start the car to go home. This problem started in December 2016 after my vehicle reached approx 12,000 miles. It's like a grinding sound and is only on for a few seconds. My local dealer said it is normal with Honda. That didn't sound right to me. In addition, after my tire pressure light keeps going on when I'm driving approx 25 miles on the expressway. This has been going on since my vehicle hi check up, 12,170 miles. Then my battery died at 13,129 miles a month and a half after my my multi-point inspection, tire rotation, and oil change. The aaa road side representative said I had bad cells. Today, I read online consumer reports of grinding noise complaints from others who drive a 2014 Honda CR-V. I called the Honda corporate office who denied hearing the grinding noise complaints. They did give me a case number regarding my premature battery failure. The corporate rep did refer me to your site stating there are no recalls on my vehicle. I am reporting this issues as I think it is strange that all of a sudden at around 12,000 I've suddenly had these weird issues with the vehicle. Could these issues be connected by an electrical short" is the light going on from a short? is the battery going dead from a short? is the grinding connected to a short" I'm frustrated because, I can't keep taking time off from work to deal with vehicle problems. I've attached 2 receipt documents and I can email a recording of me starting my vehicle. Also, here is a link to a 2014 CRV owner's public posted video about the same noise: Https://youtu.be/0O_P8bjpweq also here is a link to other online public posts: Honda-tech.com/forums/Honda-element-CR-V-156/2014-CR-V-grinding-noise-start-up-3228595/ I home you can help get some answers to my problem.

2014 Honda CRV. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle tire pressure and brake system issues. The consumer stated while driving on a snow pack road, he went around a broad curve, at a slow speed, when suddenly the vehicle slid across the road into an oncoming lane. The consumer stated he realized the vehicle slid too easily and the ABS activated prematurely, prior to the incident, the tire pressure light illuminated. The consumer believed the tires were unsafe.

This is a supplement to 10615142 filed earlier. The TPMS on my CR-V does not work. Honda can not keep it operating even after 6-8 shop repairs. While this would be dangerous, I am beginning to wonder if the "electronic stability system". and. The "anti-lock brake system". are also inoperable!!! they would seem to use same "inputs" as TPMS "??" this may be far more serious than I first thought it was!!!

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.

Tire pressure monitor systemp (TPMS) light come on every few miles. We had reseted it 50 time by now. All speed & temperatures. Dealers serviced this problem 3 times so far. Checked everything out ok. Customer forum mentioned a vehicle stability control firmware "vsa/ABS software update" & "sb#14-006 update". dealer applied firmware update May 8. but TPMS lights still came on. Problem not fixed by the firmware update.

I notice that there are many complaints about the tire pressure light coming on inadvertently for no reason. Why has no one made Honda address this problem. We already have a negligent GM with the Chevy cobalt. Don't let Honda get away with the same thing. Fix this problem!!!!

I stopped the car but the car kept going out into traffic. Later that day, I pressed the brakes and had to stand up on the brakes trying to stop the car and the car kept moving. Car in front of me had to get out of my way. The car behind me had no problem stopping. In addition to that tire pressure indicator constantly comes on. Not a good design or vehicle. Wasted my money. Vehicle was recommended by my insurance company as being safe. I don't see it. Help.
