"Completely quit working"

"Another Honda defect. Radio/CD player was replaced without cost. Unit would not be turned on at times"

"Sometimes, the radio/cd player cannot be turned on or adjusted or turned off"

"Stopped working. Required fuse replacement and reboot using code"

"Radio/CD player wouldn't turn off. Dealer replaced it. No charge"

"Sometimes cannot operate the sound system through the dash control, especially on-off. If the system is on, can be controlled with the steering wheel controls. Seems to have a mind of its own. No predictability as to when it will happen"

"We leave it on, because sometimes it won't come back on after having been turned off"

"The control interface, specifically the volume knobs, frequently don't work. They still move and turn but nothing happens. Other buttons have the same issue"

"Radio / entertainment system died and needed to be replaced"

"several suspension parts replaced; failed radio (twice); leaking timing chain mechanism, etc"

"Sometimes it will not turn on or respond to any push of the buttons. Once it turns back on I never turn it off anymore and change stations manually. Sometimes it works fine"

"The AUX input for an audio device stopped working a few months ago. The radio no longer recognizes when something is plugged into the aux outlet in the center console. I've also had issues overall with the control interface on the radio, freezing u"

"Does not respond correctly 99% of the time. Especially phone dialing"

"System has hard time understanding and executing the correct commands"

"doors lock by themselves without pushing any buttons.honda service dept has not fixed the problem"

"Burned out"

"Interior map lights inop"

"front interior lights stopped working about 8 months ago"

"The interior driver and passenger light no longer come on"

"The key fob broke off and was totally unusable. We had to order another key...wait for it to come in and then have the key cut at the dealership. We also had to take the car back to the dealership bringing ALL the keys in at one time to have them reprogramed. It was expensive and a major hassle. The dealership admitted that the key is NOT well designed"

"The keyless entry works intermittently. The dealer has replaced the battery twice, but that did not solve the problem. Since they did not have the problem when they tried it, they have done nothing else about it"

"Key fob works intermittently to open and/or lock door"

"Work intermittently at best"

"We hardly ever used this item but when we did, it fell apart"

"heated seats stopped working late fall early winter"

"I had to have the sensor replaced"

"Fan turns on, but a/c does not cool the air. Have not fixed yet"

"The motor switch that controls the amount of air coming out of the vents failed. It was repaired under an extended warranty"

"The relay that operates the AC clutch failed"

"Stopped putting out cold air. Relay went out. Seems too early for something like this to happen"

"heater starts blowing lukewarm air after driving 1-2 hours, it's like a sensor is defective and drops the heater temperature way too low"

"It was diagnosed as a leak but would have to change out major parts to access so we declined to repair since we may sell with on the year -leak is minor so I have only had to replace refrigerant once in past 6 months and still no need - we will see how well this holds through hot summer months -"

"I had a sensor failure. When it was repaired the Honda dealer also said all of the refrigerant was gone, but they could not identify any leaks. It was several hundred dollars to fix"

"Vehicle is in shop today to diagnose cause of leak"

"Two valves (relay and schrader) needed to be replaced and freon added"

"Caused car to shake. Was replaced due to Honda extending warrantee"

"This problem had been identified in 2015 and was rectified by the dealer, but the engine still had a "whining" noise, that over time, continued to get worse. I took the car to another dealer who identified the problem again and replaced the timing belt again"

"Pistons had to replaced"

"Eco system failed, back to dealer 4or5 time for missing, bucking and knocking they finally agreed to rebuild 3 cylinders to correct the problem"

"There is a know problem with this model where the piston rings allow oil to escape in piston chamber causing plugs to foul, excessive oil consumption"

"The engine started to use oil (not a leak). When it got to 1 quart in 1200 miles Honda replaced the short block at their expense. The new block is starting to use oil again but at a lower rate. Design problem?"

"This vehicle was consuming more oil than we thought was normal (1.5 - 2 liters every 5000 kms.). We fought with the dealership for 2 years before the admitted that a quantity of these engines came from the factory with faulty piston rings. The dealer"

"Pilot was burning oil (3 or 4 quarts between changes) had a series of fouled plugs, engine warning lights on,etc. Class action suit brought against Honda which I found out about on my own,never notified by Honda. Local dealer finally agreed to repla"

"Several trips and time spent they finally fixed it"

"front bushings"

"rear compartment noises, similar to old station wagon types, constant little noises"

"Rattle under the steering panel that cannot be located and is only present 65% of the time. Squaring in the back passenger area. Possibly due to suspension"

"Not very soundproof"

"The wind noise is unbearable in this car. You cannot ride with the windows down at any speed over 25 mph"

"a lot of road noise when rear windows are lowered"

"Car started cutting out. Honda replaced spark plugs . Did not help then they replaced valves and head gasket. Said was under warranty. Took several trips and rental cars and personal time to get it repaired"

"Oil is burning up in the engine. A 1/4 of the tank every month"

"Frequent oil leaks, could never diagnose problem"

"ring around 3^ cylinder leaking oil, was replaced by dealer at no charge"

"Apparently this is a problem that Honda is aware of. We were told by our mechanic that we had something called a "deep engine oil leak" that would translate to very costly repairs. A common problem in 2010's and others"

"The transmission hesitates or something, jerking the car when shifting into 2nd. It happens sporadically"

"Engine shutters when accelerating between 2nd and 3rd gears"

"Warning light had to take to transmission shop to repair"

"The dash lit up with lights; Honda dealer replaced 3 spark plugs; said Honda had extended the warranty on our vehicle and if we had any other trouble to bring it back; we will have to take it back next week for it is running rough and getting poor ga"

"Replaced ALL spark plugs (hundreds of dollars) twice. The first at the dealership where they denied this being a Honda issue. Research revealed oil leak and spark plugs go hand in hand and are supposed to be covered under extended warranty"

"had to replace both axles. I do take the vehicle off-road"

"certain speeds cause vibrations that make even the steering wheel vibrate and make grinding noise"

"Motor that switches from regular to econo drive mode failed causing extreme vibration throughout the vehicle. Motor and bracket bushings replaced corrected the issue. Still slight vibration when engaging in econo mode at around 40mph. Covered by my"
