“Catalytic converter failure. I also found out that the vehicle is covered under an excessive oil comsumption warranty which they will replace the engine piston rings due to oil entering the system. This problem will also cause oil to get into the fuel system and eventually get it the catalytic converter causing it to fouled and set efficiency codes .I am in the process of enquire to see if Honda will replace the catalytic converter.”
NHTSA complaint #10979397, filed 2017-04, 101,277 miles“At least 5 times now my 2010 Honda crv-ex awd car has tried to take off on me while applying the brake to come to a stop. I wrote it off the first time thinking maybe my foot was still touching the gas pedal when I applied the brake. The next time it happened I looked down to make sure my foot was only on the brake. My car jumped forward, even with my foot on the brake. I threw it into neutral and the motor revved up to about 5500 rpms before it decided to stop. This has happened 3 times at a stop light and twice in a parking lot. I'm afraid to drive my own vehicle. …”
NHTSA complaint #10595661, filed 2014-06, 47,500 miles“Gears began to crunch and the car began to shake. Slowed down at a light and lost the power steering. Pulled over and the engine stalled. Could not re-start for 10 minutes. Engine then re-started, traveled approx. 10 meters and stalled. Re-started again - no further problems. 2 similar occurrences, 2 months apart. For the first event, the car went off the road. On each occasion the dealership stated they had checked everything and there was nothing wrong with the car. Took it for a second opinion. Dealership had not checked recall 11-001 (january, 2011). …”
NHTSA complaint #10450426, filed 2012-03, 18,000 miles“Got this vehicle about a year and a half ago at full price from local dealership. It looks like it has been pieced together with many other hondas. The check engine light has been on ever since. The car keeps yet no camera. Just tried to get inspected. So far charged 2500 but was given a pass on inspection only for the light to come back on. I noticed on the back of repair paperwork this car has 2 airbag recalls. I feel duped I feel like this is attempted murder. I feel scared and sad. Something must be done with used car purchases”
