“Mitigation warning came on multiple times when I was driving in rainstorm on turnpike and made comment that collision warnings not available dealership told me that I need to turn system off when it rains or snows this doesn't make sense to me as this system is for safety the never occurred with my previous crv”
NHTSA complaint #11278930, filed 2019-11, 500 miles“I have 2019 crv and I recently brought to dealerships for radar sensor replacement due to intermittent. About a month later now it picks up signals or objects then automatically brakes even with nothing in front of the car (ie. No obstacles in front of the car or objects). A person behind me honked the horn and about to hitting me from behind. I just talked to Honda dealerships and they have no idea how to correct the problem.

NHTSA complaint #11341843, filed 2020-07, 6,821 miles“On february 29, 2020, I was pulling into a parking spot at a nearby park at a low rate of speed. I began to apply the brake to stop the car.

I was taken to the hospital for evaluation and then released the next day. …”
NHTSA complaint #11317488, filed 2020-03, 6,800 miles“This happened in my driveway, where we have lived for over 25 years. The wiring used for the main harness is made with a soy base product. Not only mice or rats, squirrels and other animals can smell this out and destroy the wiring. I was told that one man has had his main harness replaced 3 times. If a soy based product is being used, then the repairs that will be needed over and over from rodents should be covered under a warranty for wiring for the entire life of the car!! This harness goes to control all of the information that is in the cars computer system. …”
NHTSA complaint #11297413, filed 2020-01, 4,500 miles“We were driving a crv which is less than 6 months old. All of a sudden all safety systems failed. The breaks system, colliosion avoidence, lane assist, acc. All failed. Fortunately we were at 20 MPH so we were able to safely stop the crv. We towed the crv to the dealership and they after 4 days were able to figure out that all the safety systems had failed as there was an electrical shortcurcuit which has blown the fuses and the control system. The cause of the electrical short was traced to exopsed wires in the rear view mirror assmebly which were damaged by an ornamnet we had hung. …”
