I got car accident on 12/22/23 due to brake failure. I was at Stop Sign - zero mph (at Parking Lot near shopping mall in Concord, CA), suddenly my car unexpectedly revved and lurched forward. It then jumped the parking curb. I had to control on steering wheel to the left because the right side was Chinese Restaurant. I tried to brake and press on "P". They did not work. My car hit one of the car that parked there. Then the car was stopped. The airbag was deployed. I talked with several people that have Honda CRV Hybrid, they have same problem on the brake and Honda did not take any responsible and I feel this is not safe for me and for people that drive same road with me. I might hit more people if I still own this car. Note: I have this car less than 2 years so I still owe the bank. Note: My car was not on fire but it was smoking came out from steering wheel. I got chest, stomach, back hurt from the pushing of airbag
The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the message to depress the brake pedal was displayed. The contact stated that the transmission failed to shift out of neutral. The vehicle was towed a dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 18,000.
The front passenger side axle seal leaking transmission fluid. This leak caused a loss of transmission fluid which, if not discovered, could have caused sudden power loss and lockup of transmission. This would no doubt have caused a collision resulting in serious injury or death. I believe Honda is aware of this defect and has yet to issue a recall.
Brakes: loud squealing while in reverse and stop sign. Also steering and turning steering wheel. Fuel system looses power. Getting poor gas mileage. Rear windows tweet. Took to Vern Eide Honda on 12/08/22. Top certified mechanic looked at brakes steering and fuel system no problems found. Oil life dropped 20% in less than a month drive work and home. Less than 50 miles per day. Additional rear windows tweet and door handle squeak like rusty. Problem started in August of 2022 and is now 90%worse. Had also taken vehicle to Harr Honda on 1/16/23 they greased brakes said nothing they can do wait for recall.
I hit a deer with my car and pulled over to emergency lane. I had a hard time to make the car stop rolling. I pressed brake, emergency brake, car was stuck in neutral. I thought car was stopped and got of car. Car began rolling and i was holding onto passenger door handle and I could not open door to jump in and stop car. I had to let it go and it went into the lane on the highway and stop finally.. Luckily no one hit the car or got hurt. I had to stay seated in the car with my foot on brake with a cop behind me until a tow truck arrived. Car would not start, park or anything.

When I tried to reverse the car the car went forward. I put the car in park and tried to reverse again the car went forward again, I tried one more time and the car went forward while in reverse. I shut the car off and gave it a few minutes, I turned it back on and tried one more time and the car finally reversed. R was indicated on the dashboard and the reverse camera was on while the car was driving forward.
I purchased a new Honda CR-V EXL AWD in Jan 2022 and it has only 1971 miles. Now, the transmission is completely dead with these miles. The dealership informed me that this requires a new transmission which is covered under Honda warranty. The strange thing is that I didn't receive any warning or notification in my dashboard that transmission is getting bad/worse. Luckily, the car was stopped on a residential county road but I can't imagine if the power is getting dropped and stopped on the freeway without any warning. This is one of the biggest safety concerns and this would be a life threatening incident. I have already owned a Honda civic in the past and never had any issue, but I was highly disappointed with this incident and lost confidence with Honda. Please refund my money back :-( What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request " Ans: Transmission failed. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk?
