Honda CR-V

"AC quit working. Had it repaired by a local garage. Everything is fine."

"Catastrophic and immediate failure which required replacing the entire system."

"A/C suddenly stopped working 1 month ago, in NOT Arizona heat, compressor parts flew into the whole system, and the whole A/C system had to be replaced."

"background noise was diagnosed as bad bearings, however this fix has not fully fixed the problem, we can still hear a slight buzz coming from what we presume is the compressor."

"Failed; replaced"

"Clutch assembly and belt froze"

"The compressor is extremely loud and minimally efficient. This began about a year after the purchase and I have lived with it."

"The charge was over $870.00."

"It is anything BUT automatic. Set it for "67" and it may get cold, or if the car is cold and you set it for "72" it just gets hot. If it has a "thermostat", it doesn't work"

"auto cilmate control, stopped operating. Now runs at high fan speed / low fan speed and temp varies between cold and hot randomly"

"Several hoses had a leak; the dealer said it appeared they had been chewed by a rat. However, it took a week for the dealer to get the hoses needed to repair it."

"made a noise when fan was on high. had to replace the fan/blower"

"When the temperature reached -25'C, the blower fan would not operate in manual or automatic. It remained that way for 3 days until the temperature warmed up"

"please refer to prior comments"

"Rodents got in and made nest which caused fan/motor to malfunction"

"Had auto serviced at Curry Honda, Yorktown Heights, NY, before Three day trip to Florida. Had cabin filter changed. Few hours into trip fan began making serious noise. Unable to use fan for balance of trip. NOT SAFE. Arrived in Florida at reliable service garage and had to replace burned out fan motor. MOUSE nest - nuts, leaves, etc. in fan where the cabin filter had just supposedly been changed. There are not nasty enough words to explain how angry we were at Honda at that time. Have"

"I would turn on air conditioning and it would not seem to blow out much cold air"

"Motor bearing failed, dealer replaced under warranty."

"Rodent nest in fan had to be removed"

"Extreme condensation buildup in the car."

"When turning left, there was a loud grinding noice from where the blower fan is. I took it in to Honda and they found water in the drain box under the vehicle"

"Heater core had to be flushed out (warranty item). Cold air blew on driver's side when using heater. Repaired. Told it's a known issue with the 2013 CR-Vs"

"Very little heat coming out under dash in very cold weather. Had service which was a flushing, but did not correct completely. There is a TSB on some of these vehicles"

"Poor heat, which got cooler on the left side vent. On really cold days, below 20 fahrenhiite, only warm air. Dealer kept for 3 days, was under warranty, and said they replaced the heater core"

"In November or so the blower stopped blowing heated air; it was not heating the inside of the car"

"Heater core problem resulted in lack of heat during the winter"

"The inside heater coil was malfunctioning-no heat on passenger side of auto"

"cold air on the drivers side while the heat is on."

"Dec 5, 2015 TSB 14-063 Heater core flush Oct 24, 2018 TSB 14-063 Heater core flush"

"No heat coming from driver side vents. Turned out to be clogged and fixed with CLR which, by the way, they made me pay for."

"The heater core leaked, and the entire heater system had to be replaced."

"The car does not get heated until atleast 30 mins after starting the vehicle"

"Heater core clogged twice now. Had to flush it per honda bulletin"

"Heat doesn't work so well except on High. Dealer flushed system - slightly improved. Replacing heating core an option, but may result in bigger issues"

"I noticed cool air was coming from the drivers side heating vent. All other vents (middle, passenger side) were working perfectly."

"Heater core clogged to prevent water flow. Repaired per technical bulletin"

"Little heat in winter. Took to dealer. Said heater core was clogged. Flushed it out. Problem fixed"

"CRV years 2012 to 2015 have a problem with the Drivers side heater Core not working. A manufacturing problem KNOWN to Honda Corp.. They so far refuse to repair these cars under warranty or after warranty finally expires. It is caused by debris from the Engine Block Core not removed and then plugging the Heater Core, This causes the Defrosting of the Drivers side windshield to be very minimal at best set on MAX heat and NO HEAT on the Drivers side."

"water all over pavement"

"Had to take it in 4 times because of refrigerant loss. First three were covered by warranty. Dealer claims the fourth time was unrelated to the previous problems"

"Evaporator under dash is the problem. Will be $900 to repair"

"AWD system would indicate is was disabled. Dealer indicated the problem was in the rear differential unit due to a fluid pressure issue. Replaced rear differential"

"Worn drive shaft carrier bearing - had to replace whole part and it was very expensive"

"Took dealer 3 years to fix yhe AWD, kept replacing different parts till a honda bulletin came out with a updated part in the rear differential. Unable to use AWD for the first 50k miles we had the car"

"The AWD light kept coming on indicating a problem. Apparently there is a known issue with this indicator, and something that triggers it -- requires a multi-stage fix that was covered by warranty, but required several trips back to the dealer"

"AWD only works intermittently and when it wants. Does not come on consistently when driving on wet/icy/snowy roads"

"There was a small leak. The repair cost $200."

"Rear differential failure that took a week to repair at a dealer. the service writer reported that there were three other CR-V's in the shop with the same problem at the same time"

"Persistent croaking noise from the rear differential. Was corrected by tech service bulletin. Problem with pump on AWD. Took over a year for service bulletin to be issued"

"grinding noise.Differential replaced at 25000 miles"

"Solenoid failed to engage AWD"

"AWD dash lite came on. Dealer replaced solenoid in rear differential, also included fresh lubricant & seal"

"vibration at low speeds"

"I felt the vibration for quite a while and mentioned it to the service department. Unfortunately, I called it a rough idle since that is when I noticed it the most."

"That was related to drive shaft."

"Vibrations in front end. And at low speeds it will vibrate for a few seconds. If I start off at a fast speed it doesn’t vibrate"

"Occurs in the 25-35MPH range"

"This is related to the other problem "‿ it was the driveshaft "‿ but it took the dealer 3 visits to finally diagnose it. They original thought it was the rear differential fluid and replaced that."

"Vehicle vibrates/shakes between third and fourth gear"

"RIGHT REAR PROPELLER SHAFT AND REAR DIFF MOUNTS NEEDED REPLACING. THAT WAS DONE AND VIBRATION WENT AWAY. SMOOTH AS SILK NOW. WAS TOLD THERE WAS A BULLETIN OUT ON THAT. NO CHARGE. COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND BULLETIN."

"Wheel bearing went bad on front within 6 months of new purchase. Problem fixed free and loaner car extended"

"Started with a vibration and then the drive shaft had to be replaced. The driveshaft in an AWD CRV is one piece."

"I purchased new tires from the dealer. After balancing there was vibration. I brought the car back dealer rebalanced, vibration still persisted. Dealer kept the car overnight and determined that there was a problem with the drive shaft that controlled AWD. Dealer said that when the disconnected drive shaft the problem went away. A new drive shaft was installed which fixed the problem. Now the other issue is that the drive shaft part cost $2600, plus labor, tax, brought total to just under $3000. When I purchase the car I purchased extended dealer warranty. I purchase it because with all the electronics who knows. But this repair was covered under the warranty. I have to add that I like the Honda CR-V, and would consider buying a new one when the extended warranty period expires end of 2020. If the under reported issued regarding the 4 cylinder turbo engine is fixed. Or maybe since I own the car I will just keep it."

"We bought Hondas since 2002 and found it to be reliable except the 2013 CRV_EX FWD,it had driveshafts problem @ 90,000 miles, also timing casing and crankcase leaks, cost over $4,000 to repair; vehicle was faithfully maintained by Honda dealer, my nephew has an Honda Civic LX with 156,000 miles on it without any major problems.Very disappointed, will not purchase another Honda any time soon."

"A vibration began to be felt in the driveline. It was diagnosed as the hanger bearing on the driveshaft powering the rear axle. The driveshaft and hanger bearing is only sold as a complete assembly. After market driveline repair shops cannot get the parts to repair it requiring the replacement of the entire driveshaft "‿ a Honda expensive part ($3000.00). This problem is known to be chronic on 2013s but Honda will not acknowledge it. I selected a high quality aftermarket part and had it installed. This was a cheaper route"‿total cost about $2300 including labour. Car is now much quieter."

"front right driveshaft shimmy at about 25-30 mph. dealership refused to fix, "reprogrammed" instead. rear axle seal failed. replaced cv joints on left side of vehicle."

"Driveshaft had to be replaced, under warranty"

"A wheel bearing went bad and it was fixed under warranty"

"Found oil leak from front axle, replaced under manufacturer warranty"

"bearing issue required replacement of drive / prop shaft"

"Shaft controling rear tires was making a loud noise. Was replaced and covered under drive train warranty"

"Wheel bearing noise."

"The alternator failed. My long extended warranty covered it."

"The ESC light came on and would stay on for days. It took the dealer four days to fix the sensor in the ECS system, but it was covered under warranty."

"Twice car accelerated into garage door on moderate ice with brakes not working at all."

"when sitting on any kind of an incline if the cars rolls back even a half of foot when you transfer from park to drive there is a very loud clank. honda said it was because of front wheel drive and i said it was because of poor engineering. sounds ba"

"lugging when shifting into third gear when cold"

"Car shuttered between 2nd and 3rd gear. The car has a service bulletin on this issue. We had to have the transmission flushed, along with a computer update. The dealer should NOT charge for this."

"this was the 2nd time I had trouble, shifting from 2nd to 3rd greer the 2nd time I only had the oil replaced. it finally stopped slipping"

"There's a shudder/vibration when the transmission shifts between 20-30mph. There is a service bulletin for it, but I haven't had a chance to get it serviced yet during the pandemic"

"While accelerating from about 20-35 MPH, the car shakes and rattles slightly. Honda said nothing was wrong but this is not normal, even for a 5-speed transmission"

"When cold it paused when shifting from 2nd to 3rd"

"The ride was noticeably rough when it shifted at slow speeds"

"This occurs in situation where the car has slowed but not stopped. Upon acceleration, there is an obvious lurch caused by the transmission"

"sometimes when I put the car in reverse, it doesn't register and I have to retry"

"if you hit the gas pedal hard , you feel a little slippage, if you lighten up on pedal it stops."

"at low speed, the automatic gear selection caused the transmission to 'stutter'. A charge of $650. by the dealer and change of fluid seems to have resolved the issue for several months now."

"This is my SECOND CRV with a faulty transmission that was NOT fixed by Honda. At 30k it shuttered upon shifting. The dealership promised a fix. All they did was update transmission software to shift at a different mph. I returned with the still-shuttering transmission but they denied any problem. Basically, a worthless workaround for a defective tranny."

"30000 miles right after warranty ended the transmission started slipping took it to a family mechanic and to remedy the problem we change transmission fluid now we have to change transmission fluid every third oil change prevent this problem. This is the first major problem I had with any of my own products. It has made me rethink my confidence and being a Honda loyalist"

"Transmission was slipping. Transmission was replaced under warranty"

"Shifting paused when shifting"

"transmission was slipping. It was a software problem thatwas corrected"

"shift points had to be updated with software"

"the dealer adjusted the computer to fix the slipping between 2nd and 3rd and changed the oil in the trans.It seemed to be starting again that when I had the oil changed it stopped having trouble about 2,000 miles later"

"After adjusting the gear changing mph, the car is slower to speed up, and feels like it's dragging."

"Shuttering issue at 30 mph. Took several return trips to dealer to have them change transmission fluid and upgrade computer for transmission per service bulletin. Problem solved"

"computer update needed to be installed at time of a service call. No recall, but service tech updated computer program and CRV ran fine after update to programs"

"Computer was reprogrammed per tech bulliten to correct the shifting timing. I"

"Took car in for oil change, and dealer discovered a leak in one of the transmission seals. No evidence I was aware of. Car is parked in garage, and no signs of leakage on the floor. Covered by warranty. Dealer is a "rainmaker". No longer go to th"

"The axle boot"

"leaking drive axle seal"

"Fluid sweating out around transmission"

"During routine service and inspection, tech discovered leak. My complaint regarded jerky movement when making left turn and accelerating. He repaired and added transmission fluid. All was covered by warranty."

"When in for routine work -- when I went to pick up vehicle - told about the leak and my option. I am the only driver of this vehicle ... Driven Honda(3 other) since 1985 and never touched a transmission. Will not purchase another Honda"

"Transmission seal leaking"

"The transmission was not shifting properly."

"Shutter between 25-30mph. Problem fixed"

"At about 20 to 25 mph the car gave a little shiver or shake as it was accelerating . Honda fixed the problem with a new computer chip or something like that. No charge for that"

"AWD solenoid swapped with another vehicle because new part not available. Did not work. Had to order part and return to dealer for repair"

"Various gauges and back up camera malfunctioned. They repalced"

"Intermittently wouldn’t work. Stopping and re-starting engine seemed to “fix” the problem. Traded carin before complete failure."

"Backup lights. Insufficient lighting for backing up"

"back upper red light was not working; had to order a new one & was replaced under warranty"

"some issues with the front left signal light. It needed replacement 3 times in 12 months"

"Wiring harness on the driver side was burned up and shorted. Needed to replace the harness."

"Issues with turn signal-replaced 2x"

"The "third eye" brake light stopped working. Nothing serious. Cost CAD$130 to buy the repacement light assembly, took 15 minutes to install, and it was fixed. Easy."

"The third brake light went out and it is very expensive to fix."

"Upper stop light LED stopped working."

"Very substandard lighting. Does not meet my criteria for being able to see at night. Geometry of reflectors completely wrong. High beams unUSble, low beams not acceptable. Backup lights also to dim to see with"

"Insufficient illumination from headlights when driving at night on unlit or poorly lit roads,"

"Poor visibility. Tried higher wattage bulbs, but they burnt out in a year. I also had to worry that charging system could handle the higher load"

"Headlight bulb not working. Replaced with new bulb and still not working. Had to go in for service"

"Repeated short lifespan for headlight bulbs, both sides"

"Much more frequent lamp replacement than any other vehicle I've owned"

"lights went out while driving"

"Have replaced both headlight bulbs multiple times since purchase. Dealer refused to troubleshoot headlight system for possible causes"

"We purchased the vehicle brand new and immediately noticed problems with the headlights, they did a very poor job of illuminating the road at night. Both the low and high beams performance were problematical. Additionally , when the high beams were activated the low beams were turned off. When I went back to the dealership I was told that that's the way they are. I went to the Internet and researched the problem and found some recommended headlight bulbs that were said to improve the situation. I purchased the bulbs and did experience some improvement but we have limited our night time driving on dimly lit roads."

"Adjusting headlights would go low in low light andcause dangerous lack of vision. System randomly switches between day and night light intensity"

"the rear entry doesn't operate at low temperatures, say below 30 degrees"

"The indicator light appears and my tire pressure is fine. And, this was 6 days after I had it in for normal maintainence"

"The monitor had to be adjusted along with the navigation system. It was a computer problem"

"the toms right comes on & miss not resolved"

"TPM gives false readings"

"presser monitor was broken; had to pay to replace it"

"When I had winter tires installed, the TPMS doesn't recognize these tires. The TPMS light will stay on until the tires are changed back to summer tires. This seems to be a money grab by Honda as you would think that car would be programmed for all ti"

"TPM light on dashboard continually illuminates after change over of seasonal tires. Nothing wrong with tire pressure. Annoying."

"Stopped working"

"The windshield washer freezes if -35 fluid isn't used"

"The variable wipe speed selector is supposed to allow 0 to about 10 seconds of wiper sweep delay. The control fails in that I can't vary the speed quite often. Other times it works normally. Therefore I have an intermittent problem."

"Clanging noise during initial start-up after vehicle sits for more than six hours in cold weather, below 40 degrees. Diagnoses is the VTC actuator. Dealer replaced under warranty but did not fix problem. New diagnoses per dealer is that Honda does"

"Engine grinding noise while starting in cold weather. Took to dealer and repaired under warranty. Still does it but not as frequent. Need to go back before warrant runs out"

"In 2014, I had my car in for a noise in my car. They replaced the VTC Actuator in November of 2014. The noise since has returned. I wasn't sure what category to place this in, but after a little inquiry on line, it appeared it should select the"

"Defective VTC actuator in engine makes sound like a grinding of gears upon cold startup. This is a known problem many Honda owners are experiencing. Honda will not repair if outside of 36,000 mile factory warranty. Should be a recall item. Costs over $1,000 to repair and the problem will return after another 100,000 miles."

"my car has a one second grinding sound that happens when the car is cold and the engine oil has fully drained from the heads. This issue is scaring me and I am worried it will get worse."

"Honda has problem with variable valve component, which has been replaced twice on this CRV, at a cost of about $90 each time. Honda knows of no fix for this problem, except parts replacement with like component that will eventually fail again."

"Knocking sound on cold weather start up. Disappears after about 10 seconds."

"fairly load valve noise"

"Had the variable timing control actuator replaced. Car would sound like a diesel clattering for a second or two when engine and outside temperature was cold. Honda covered it under warranty even though mileage was over drivetrain warranty"

"Our accentuator valve was broken. This is a known problem with this year CRV. The car would make a terrible grinding sound upon start up in the cold. Very frustrating. Our dealership covered 1/2 of the cost of repair. We paid 600.00 for the fix. Not what you expect from a new Honda"

"Had to replace valve actuator. In cold weather engine would make a grinding sound when first started up. Car Max fixed at no cost. My friend has the same car and the new car dealer he bought it from would not repair saying Honda does not consider it a problem"

"I didn't see this problem, but the 'grinding' noise on start up was caused by the VTC Actuator. It was replaced at 24,000 miles, and has been good since."

"Cold engine startup grinding"

"As I found out after about 6 months, this model (and several others) has a problem with the VTC Actuator. It makes a grinding type of noise at start up. Honda knows of this problem but claims it won't hurt the engine and will do nothing to fix it"

"The engine stalls and vibrates when accelerating. Seems to be worse in economy mode."

"the car can shutter when I accelerate and removing my foot from the accelerator will calm down the car."

"I purchased the car used in 2017. My local mechanic found oil leaks. The Honda dealer fixed them under warranty. The local mechanic found more leaks and Honda refused to fix them under warranty so I had the local mechanic repair them. The car is fine now."

"Engine burns oil that has to be filled regularly"

"just found it on last oil change"

"Oil leaks after oil change. Dealer was not responsive to our concerns. Also the engine makes grinding noises when starting, especially after sitting for more than 24 hours. Also please change year for this Honda to 2014, I incorrectly selected 2013"

"Oil leak at timing chain cover"

"Oil leaking from oil pump area and antifreeze leaking from the ATF clamps due to poor crimping."

"ON YEARLY INSPECTION,MECHANIC NOTICED OIL FROM HEAD GASKET. MY HONDA IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND DEALER REPAIRED TO MY SATISFACTION AT NO CHARGE."

"The car has oil leaks which are not serious -as in spotting on our garage floor- but the car should not have oil leaks at all so we will probably have to replace the seals. I should have had them put the car on a rack so I could look under it but with 31000 miles and a good carfax report --- which I am wondering about--- I thought the car would be OK . They (the dealer) told me a lady owned the car previously and just wanted a new one--- there was nothing wrong with the car according to them."

"Mechanic where I live found a couple of leaks. Leaking from rear of valve cover gasket and from timing chain cover. Repaired by Honda under warranty. Mechanic found another oil leak from the coolant passage/oil separator housing area."

"The car was under warranty and the dealer repaired the car without charge to me."

"Valve train failure required warranty replacement of the cylinder head assembly and additional valve train adjustment"

"This is my second Honda CR-V. I didn't want to buy another but followed CR's advice that they had improved and thought my other car was simply a 'lemon'. NOT SO! Same issues. Both burned oil. The first car actually blew the engine and this one I caught and I needed to replace the valves and cylinder. NEVER AGAIN!!!"

"Honda changed the entire top of the engine that contains the head system"

"Valve failure in cylinder three required engine rebuild. Our marvelous mechanic was able to do it in his shop as the head was not warped. The rest of the engine (at 96000 miles) was pristine. His comment was “this NEVER happens to a Honda”"

"two rocker arms replaced at around 26000 miles"

"Note this occured on a low miles CR-V, 68,000 miles. It has always been serviced on time, the last few services at the dealership where it lies disemboweled, waiting for a new engine. Honda dealer describes: Valve Spring failure caused valve to drop in to piston, where it punctured the piston and destroyed the engine. They are claiming we need a whole new small block engine. $700 to diagnose. $10,000 for new engine and installation. Honda America offer parts at wholesale cost taking engine to $8,000. they are offering to pay for half of that. So our out of pocket is $4,000 to repair, which we don't have. we still owe $2000 on the car. While we are ok with how the dealership has handled the problem, we feel Honda America is clearly dodging responsibility for a clearly defective engine. Any help would be appreciated."

"At start up on a cold morning, the engine made a terrible metal on metal sound."

"well maintained engine failed at 35,000 miles"

"Loud Clacker noise on cold start"

"The variable timing actuator failed as in most 2013 Honda CRVs and caused the timing chain and tensioner to need replacement as well"

"It sounds like I have the variable valve timing control actuator malfunction that has plagued 13-14 CRV's. I have not taken it in yet for diagnosis and repair, but it is getting worse and now does it even on warm days."

"Check engine light came on as I was taking the CR-V to the dealer for an oil change."

"Mechanical Failure light kept coming on. Computer code indicated worn timing chain. Problem was resolved by replacing chain."

"Honda's have chain rattle during start up associated with the VTC actuator. every time i start my car i get a 1 second rattle sound. dealership refused to fix it; told me even if they heard it, they wouldn't fix it."

"Engine had a metallic noise when starting.There were also multiple failures indicated by trouble lights on dash board.The problem was repaired under an extended waranty.The technician said the timing chain was "stretched","

"The timing chain tensioner failed. I took the car to the dealership to be repaired. I called Honda North America to complain that the timing chain would not have failed. Since I did all of services on time and with the dealer they covered the cost of the repair. The repair cost was $1200. I am very happy with Honda and will continue to do business with them. The problem occurred at about 75000 miles."

"A tooth broke on the gear that engages the timing chain and engine ran but was noisy when put into gear at low speeds when cold. Had to replace the timing chain, guides, tensioner, actuator, etc"

"Timing belt diagnosed as "stretched" at 59000 miles. All recommended maintenance per maintenance minder performed by Honda dealer shop. Repair covered under warranty. No evidence of lubrication issue"

"Timing belt became "stretched" and had to be replaced, but was covered under warranty"

"At 105000 miles timing chain failed and needed expensive repair. Traded car in for 2018 HR-V."

"Timing chain was stretced though I follow all the maintenance requirements and eve get my oil changed at the dealership."

"Variable Valve Timing Actuator went bad at 87,000 miles, this was a $1,000 dollar repair, and according to the dealer is a frequent problem (yet nothing in CR reporting on this). This manifests itself as a loud mechanical sound when starting the engine - it goes away after a few seconds. It gets worse over time, and can damage the timing chain, and in a worst case scenario lead to major engine damage."

"When went to start engine, heard noise. Saw points on You Tube. Dealer repaired"

"Have had electrical issues with this car since about a year into owning it. The electrical system cannot keep up with the accessories (heated seats, etc). I've had the battery die > 7 times and I now always carry a battery jumper."

"Original HONDA alternator failed to recharge the battery. Not covered under warranty. Replaced by Local mechanic. $ 400.00"

"The battery was never 100% even though the car was new. The battery died about 4 months ago and had to be replaced (under warranty)"

"had to replace it, on a car that was 2.5 years old"

"The 2 year-old battery died. I'm on my third battery for this car."

"No reserve capacity. Replaced with Interstate battery"

"Over the past several years, the battery has been dead about four times. Five months ago the dealership said it needed a software update and that would fix the problem. The battery was dead twice after that, and I ended up buying a new one. I hope that solves the problem, because one could be stranded anywhere"

"Battery failed under warranty and was replaced. I was out of pocket for towing charge to dealer"

"there was a problem with the computer program that controlled charging of the battery. Caused 2 batteries to go bad in 4 years. Dealer identified problem after second battery failed. Charged me for updated program but then absorbed cost of battery and tow because of battery failure"

"Honda uses a dual mode charging system on this model year that does NOT keep the battery charged. Two batteries failed in four years. I consider this a major design failure and would NOT buy any car with this feature. Full 14.3V charge voltage is only applied when load current is above a certain threshold. Our driving habits do NOT exceed this threshold in most circumstances. Hence, only float voltage of around 12.9V is appled. Consumer Reports should investigate this issue and perhaps issue a Not Recommended rating."

"battery died twice in fourth year of operation. Dealer replaced first time under warranty. I replaced it the second time with an Interstate battery NOT a Honda battery. I had problems with the battery on our previous Honda."

"Replaced VTC Actuator and Tensioner and Crank Seal"

"Grinding noise after car starts"

"Starter had an intermitent failure. Sometimes I had to try 2 or 3 times to get the engine running."

"Load noise often associated with starter"

"Noise when starting.cam actuator replaced under drive train warrenty"

"Vns audinator had to be replaced"

"Car actuator made a loud grinding sound upon starting. Honda knew of problem but did not offer relief without being pushed. Replaced free of charge and now one year later same part needs replaced. Has not impacted use of car."

"The right rear door lock-unlock actuator failed completely. It was not covered by the warranty and I had to have it replaced at my expense."

"Window seals on one side window failed. Had window replaced"

"Rear passenger door latch failed. Replaced under warranty"

"Rear hatch wouldn't unlock/open"

"Rear hatch would not unlock when below 15 degrees. Took to dealer 3 times before it was fixed over 1.5 years"

"As before it was the latch on the hatch that wouldn't work."

"The driver side seat "sinks" periodically. One must use the height adjustment lever to raise it again"

"leaves apparently got into the drain for the sunroof and caused very significant water damage to the headliner and some corrosion with the operating system of the sunroof...due the leaves clogging the drain for the sunroof. Honda rep said not Honda'"

"Sunroof leaked, caused rust and interior damage"

"Hatch latch, won't open when cold - 40 degrees or below. Latch seems to be activated when pressed and sometimes takes several seconds to unlatch. rather than a purely mechanical latch. Have had to add and remove luggage bags through back doors. D"

"Difficult to open"

"open indicator too senative"

"The tailgate locks and won't open. When it happens some of the doors lock and won't open"

"Latch froze up when it got cold. Was replaced on warranty but the new one failed shortly after. Works fine when it is not below freezing"

"Bottom panel on hatch had to be adjusted due to edge rubbing on adjacent paint around hatch opening. Gasket along bottom edge of hatch became detached and had to be reinstalled."

"Tailgate will not open from the outside handle in cold weather (50 degrees or below). Handle is temp/pressure release, not mechanical 'pull to release.' Honda issued Service Bulletin #16-063 on January 25, 2018."

"Couldn't open hatch when it was cold outside."

"It would appear that the left front ball joint was either defective or wasn't properly installed in any event there was absolutely no hesitation by the dealership to replace the part no hassle and done"

"Needed replacement too early around 70000 miles"

"Had to replace three over life of car"

"needed to be replaced"

"One front shock/strut started leaking oil. Replaced under warranty"

"One leaking strut"

"Bad rear shocks were major contributor to uneven tire wear and vibration . Vibration required numerous visits to repair shop for diagnosis and finally two visits to Honda dealer while traveling to have extended warranty repairs made."

"Rear springs weakened making alignment expensive. Needed aftermarket adjuster"

"The steering is dangerously sloppy. During and after turning, the wheels either keep turning while attempting to straighten out, or after turning the wheel back to normal position, it is still slightly turning. Honda said nothing was wrong, but you keep turning when trying to go straight"

"Twice in the past two months squirrels have eaten the cable to the power steering to the tune of over500 dollars. I was told a fellow had an air conditioner problem with a acorns inside. I believe this is a design problem"

"Motor mount and two lower control arms had to be replaced"

"Tie rods became dangerously loose over a 9 month period. They were replaced, which solved the problem."

"According to dealer uneven tire wear and vibration were directly related to bad shocks."

"Developed noise - diagnosed as front wheel bearing. It was replaced - noise gone"

"Left front wheel bear and hub has had to be replaced twice since I bought it in 2018."

"Front passenger wheel bearing failed. Was replaced under warranty"

"Initially the rear passenger sidewent bad. Replaced udder warranty. Then 2 weeks later the other side went. It should have been checked when the first one went. It cost me many hours of wait time and inconvenience"

"On the roof several small inserts fell out"

"Interior trim by driver's window and rear passenger seat needed replacing because of warping"

"trim molding around door just deteriorated"
