IT TAKES 15 MINUTES OF DRIVING FOR CAR TO WARM UP, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD FOR THE FIRST 15 MINUTES. I'M AWARE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH MY MODEL, I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO DO A RECALL AND REALLY ACTUALLY FIX IT. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX AT THIS TIME. THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN ISN'T WORKING. I'M READING THAT THE 2019 WERE SUPPOSEDLY FIXED WITH THE SAME SERVICE CAMPAIGN AND IT'S NOT WORKING.

ON 10/16/2019, DEALER REPLACED ALL OF THE FUEL INJECTORS, BECAUSE THEY FAILED HONDA'S TESTS. PICKED UP THE VEHICLE ON THE EVENING OF 10/16/2019 AND DROVE IT HOME. STARTED DRIVING IT TO WORK ON 10/17/2019 AND WHILE ACCELERATING ON THE INTERESTATE, THE ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING (VIOLENT THUDS) AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING REPEATEDLY. I LOST POWER AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NO LONGER BLINKED OR ILLUMINATED. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE DID NOT MISFIRE PRIOR TO THE REPAIRS MADE BY HONDA. ATTACHED IS THE FUEL INJECTOR REPAIRS INVOICE.

WHEN I GO TO HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY TELL ME I HAVE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR, ALTHOUGH IM READING EVERYWHERE ELSE, AND IM GETTING NOTICES IN THE MAIL ON A FEW OF THEM. I FEEL LIKE IM BEING LIED TO ABOUT MY CAR AND IM AFRAID THAT MY CAR IS GOING TO FALL APART THE LONGER I KEEP IT. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF I CAN GET SOMEONE TO ADVOCATE FOR ME ON THE ISSIES THAT I AM HAVING WITH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP/CORPORATION. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK THREE DAYS AGO, AND I COULD NOT GET MY CAR TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE, I RELEASED THE SHIFT BUTTON AND IT POPPED OUT ONTO MY FLOORBOARD. HONDA NOW SAYS THEY WILL NOT COVER THE FULL COST OF REPAIR. MY RECALL THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE DONE ABOUT MY MOTOR LEAKING GAS INTO THE OIL WAS NEVER REPAIRED AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT EVEN THOUGH I GOT THE NOTICE IN THE MAIL, MY VEHICLE SHOWS DOES NOT NEED REPAIRED. PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE NEVER FELT SO HELPLESS AND THEY TELL ME I WAS NEVER SENT A RECALL NOTICE, WHEN I HAVE IT IN MY HAND.

THE OIL LEVEL HAS CONSISTENTLY INCREASED AFTER EVERY OIL CHANGE, AND HAS HAD THE SMELL OF GASOLINE, EVEN WITHIN 1200 MILES. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF HONDA ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, BUT THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM SINCE I LIVE IN A WARM CLIMATE AREA, AND THEY INSIST, IN THE FACE OF CLEAR EVIDENCE, THAT ONLY COLD CLIMATES HAVE THE PROBLEM. 1,168 MILES AFTER AN OIL AND FILTER CHANGE, I SMELLED GAS FROM THE DIPSTICK, SO I SENT THE OIL IN FOR ANALYSIS. THE REPORT CAME BACK WITH CRITICAL (>5%) DILUTION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS MANY PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW THAT THEIR ENGINES MAY SIEZE, OR JUST STOP RUNNING, DUE TO LACK OF LUBRICATION.

Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Forward Collision Avoidance; Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking; Forward Collision Avoidance: Sensing System: Camera; Forward Collision Avoidance: Sensing System: Radar; Forward Collision Avoidance:software
On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,294 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in 2017-2022 Honda CR-V and 2018-2022 Honda Accord vehicles. A total of 31 complaints alleged a crash and 50 alleged an injury. The Total column in the Failure Report Summary removes duplicate reports and shows the total number of reports with unique VINs from all Manufacturer, ODI, and EWR data sources. In some cases, there were multiple reports associated with a particular vehicle in which recurring failures were alleged. In total, there were X,XXX reports, 93 injury incidents and 47 crashes involving vehicles with unique VINs that may relate to the alleged defect. PE22-003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. The scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.

PE22003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA24002) to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. Further the scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.

On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,081 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in the subject vehicles. A total of 24 complaints alleged a crash and 42 alleged an injury. The Total column in the Failure Report Summary removes duplicate reports and shows the total number of reports with unique VINs from all Manufacturer, ODI, and EWR data sources.
