Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“In 2010 to 2016 Honda CR-Zs the exterior door handles will fail without any symptoms. Leaving the driver unable to unlatch the door without being inside. The problem has not been addressed by Honda, but many owners have reported it being a common problem. The door handle latch tends to break under hot or cold environments and under light to heavy stress when attempting to open the door”

NHTSA complaint #11474393, filed 2022-07

“Poor Design to Door handles that melt in heat and you cannot enter the car except through the hatch! This should be a voluntary recall where Honda pays for the repairs to door handles that melt on the 2015 Honda CRZ as a known issue. The known issue states extreme cold also causes the plastics to become brittle and break. Honda dealership wants in excess of $1000 to diagnose the known problem and repair. The replacement parts are after market and cost $23.00 per door plus shipping. Honda should cover this cost!”
