2011 Honda CR-V Engine Problems

“Poor acceleration and pickup when applying gas. Worse in hotter weather. There is a Honda service bulletin for thus problem on same year vehicle for computer firmware update to fix the problem, 10-077 TSB, but my local Honda dealer refuses to do it. Says my VIN doesn't fall into it, even know the symptoms are exactly what it fixes. Frustrated. No pickup is really dangerous when trying to get on interstate and it is my daughter's car.”

“On march 11, 2018 I backed into my driveway, turned off the engine and parked next to my porch. Before going into the house, my grandson told me to look at the car which was smoking under the hood. Within seconds the smoke turned dark gray. The fire department arrived in 3 minutes. I could see fire underneath the engine on the bottom at the driveway. The front door windows were busted to put out the fire on the dashboard, too.”

“I was driving the vehicle on my town's streets around 35 MPH as usual when my vehicle's check engine light started flashing and I was unable to accelerate past 20 MPH. I immediately took the vehicle to the autozone in town and they stated it was an engine misfire. The vehicle was taken to the nearest car repair shop as a Honda dealership was over 25 miles away and I was told that it was an engine misfire in cylinder 1. They are still trying to find out what caused the misfire. Why was crv's not included under the class lawsuit with Honda?”

“The vehicle has been running rough in the highway and rough when idling. We have chosen to keep it because we have trust in Honda's reliability. Five days ago, the car was running and the whole family was in it. All of a sudden, its engine sounded like 'junk' which never happened before. We were all nervous and confused and we were about 20 miles away from home. Our safety in the car was uncertain and the roads going home had varying speeds between 30 to 65 mi/hr. We know today that the engine has severe problem due to high oil consumption which is extremely disappointing.”

“Tamara recall my car has started burning oil at about 82,000 miles. I am putting a quart in about every 1500 miles. It seams like it is gradually burning more oil I just had to add 2 quarts and this is the second time adding between its last oils change. I have oil changed at dealership every 4-5 thousand miles. I have seen this is a problem with this year cars but mine has not fallen under any recalls I am wondering why? This car is in michigan I warm the engine up before driving. I have had the car in and looked at it is not leaking oil it is burning it.”
