CarComplaints.com Notes: For the 2013 model year, the Crosstour got a facelift and the more-efficient (albeit terribly named) "Earth Dreams" engine. While the newer model now gets better MPG, you're not going to be able to ride for long considering they did nothing to address the terribly uncomfortable seat.

The FCW, LDW, ABS, and the traction control lights came on a couple of days after I had brand new factory brakes and rotors put on. I took it to the dealership and they told me this has been a known issue with the Crosstours for a while that I needed to replace the ABS modulator. Upon my research they were correct, Honda has been aware of this issue for a few years but has yet to do a recall. This is an widespread problem that puts everyone in danger.

All warning lights came on-LDW/ABS/VSA/FCW at first around 7/25/23. Called Honda service-told to bring it in for diagnostic check. Then on 7/27/23 power steering went out-had car towed in to dealer-they fixed/replaced EPS Control unit under extended warranty extension 19-036. They diagnosed the electrical systems -said it needed VSA Modulator ($2222.36 prepaid)-and said safe to drive. That was at 54,947 miles on the car-after a couple of weeks, the -??BRAKE LIGHT-?? warning light came on -at first intermittently-then every time-then intermittently again. Called dealership-said -yes-that-??s normal, that it happened to other Honda Crosstours an Honda Accords! They said -?? should be safe to drive-?? -?""??? Would you feel safe to driving this vehicle" Looked online -found article on the VSA Modulator-many Honda Crosstours and Accords had this same problem-saw a picture on why this modulator needed to be replaced-the -??DESIGN FLAW-?? was at the connection where it connected to the circuit board -solder broke, because too much pressure at connection when it plugged in ( vertically plugged in) This should be fixed under extended warranty like the power steering control unt-?" How or why the -??brake warning light-?? is unexplained, but it-??s it a safety issue not knowing" If the brakes fail and someone is injured, minor or fatally, -??who-??s responsible-?? -or -??liable-??-the driver or the manufacturer??????? My crosstour still awaiting VSA Modulator after two and a half months!! Issue: 1. Safe to drive 2. Who should pay 3.Who-??s responsibility" (Liability)

My rear brakes pads are completely worn out and my car does not even have 40K miles on it. Very disappointed. How can my rear pads be out before my front pads? according to the Honda dealership the rear brakes go out first on these types of cars. I am no mechanic but this does not make sense to me when the tech is blaming my stop and go traffic. I've owned Chevy's and Ford's and I've never had an issue with my brakes going out so soon whether front or rear. I'm never buying a Honda again.
