Example complaints
Steering: “I parking my car in a parking spot at my work infront of a tree post the car jumped and hit the tree post by it self as crazy it sound I’ve never seen this before I was devastated. Scared I had called the insurance to tow the car to the Honda dealer and it’s been sitting there for a month now to get the manufacturing Honda come look at it and no one had contacted me yet.”
NHTSA complaint #11672206, filed 2025-07Fuel system: “It has become increasingly more difficult to steer my car and I have sought repair from Honda for months to no avail. My brand new CRV is almost un-drivable and it is my only car.”
NHTSA complaint #11641777, filed 2025-02Other or unknown: “My sunroof is leaking, I've taken it to the dealer 3 times and this past weekend I noticed that my back door (the hatch door) leaks when it rains and when you take it through a car wash. the water comes in through the molding right above the back window and leaks down all through the car and out of the back door. I have videos and pictures that I can provide. When I take my car through the car wash the sunroof moved down and water squirts inside the car.”
NHTSA complaint #11645922, filed 2025-03Brakes: “There were moments at certain speed like when I try to park at low speed or when I go down the hill at higher speed, the brake just doesn’t work. More specifically, as I try to engage the brake, the brake pedal just loose all the way and the brake just not engage when the brake pedal at maximum. This happens 2-3 times already, and my car is new.”
