Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Car is only 13 months old and had a dead battery twice when nothing was left on. This is unacceptable because I spent $30,000 on this car and my loan is for 4 more years. Honda dealership says battery and charging system is fine. Not what I was expecting from Honda, car is not reliable at all. I'm scared to take it far because I will get stranded. This needs to be fixed.”
NHTSA complaint #10816665, filed 2015-12, 40,000 miles“Traveling on trip to california from arizona and the tire pressure system monitoring light came on. We pulled off as soon as feasible possible and checked pressure which was correct. Happened to me twice since then and both times the pressure in all tires was correct. Looks like a lot of other people have this problem as well.”
NHTSA complaint #10649545, filed 2014-10, 500 miles“Have owned my Honda crv 2014 for 2 months and the low tire pressure warning light has come on 3 times. Dealer does not admit a problem with the car but does not permanently correct the problem either. Has Honda acknowledged a problem here? I see many other owners have the same problem. Some body make Honda fix the problem!!!!”
NHTSA complaint #10566172, filed 2014-02, 250 miles“I bought my car brand new at the end of 2013. On old morning and sporadically and cool mornings in the spring and fall there is a loud grinding sound under the hood. It looks like many people have this issue. I have taken it in 3 times now to a Honda dealer and every single time they are they can't replicate the issue and do not hear it themselves. They are unable to fix or repair it yet it seems to be such a common problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10824380, filed 2016-02, 45,846 miles“My CR-V is 18 months old and since last dec. Has the grinding sound when first started. The tire pressure signal lights up on occasion but when tire pressure is checked no tire is low. Took car to dealer and they said it could be fixed while under warranty. Hope so, but after seeing other complaints not so sure. Bought this car based on friends recommendations and Honda's reputation. Wish I had known about this website prior to purchase!”
