2023 Honda CR-V

The Transmission mount failed and the transmission was loose and clunking around in the vehicle when I applied the breaks and occasionally when I accelerated. The car has less than 50K miles and the transmission mount should not fail. There was no accident or rust and no reason for it to fail. I believe it is a safety hazard that Honda should do a recall or at least cover the cost of the repair.

My car has been making noises and no checks engine light for about 4 weeks now. It has started on October 19, 2025 and tomorrow will make 1 month. The noise starts when I press the brakes and when I drive. When merging on highways the car would delay start when I press the gas and then it’ll jump or stutter twice before moving which is dangerous because I’m merging on to highways. I’ve been to several shops and they’ve all told me it’s the transmission and I will need a complete new one. I continued driving my car because I have no way getting to and from work and today November 15, 2025, it broke down while on the highway with my daughter and husband in the car. I had to wait for my car to decide to start moving while others behind me swerved into the other lane because of the sudden stop all while hoping no one would crash into us. It turned on and we were able to move off to the side slowly and again it shut off. The check engine light finally came on and when the tow truck came the guy inspected the vehicle and said what everyone else said there is a transmission problem and it popped up and said something about the transmission and the brake system. As far as the brakes the mechanics said the brake hardware is rubbing against the rotor on the front left side and I can’t brake hard while driving or it’ll make a loud noise or a hard sudden stop. I have to press lightly and way ahead of time so that I don’t run into any issues. When searching online I saw that 2023 Honda Crvs do have transmission problems and it’s happened to several others. The sudden stops, noises, and complete replacement of their transmission. Plenty of others had it covered by warranty but what about the others that don’t have warranty. I have not replaced my transmission as of yet because the mechanics I usually go to is closed on weekends so I will be waiting until Monday. This is dangerous and crazy and Honda needs to do a major recall before someone actually gets hurt.

In early August 2025, driving on the highway with my car behaving entirely normally, my entire dashboard lit up-- all error lights, check engine, transmission, emissions, blind spot- everything. After reading on the internet a bit i read that there could have been a 12v battery power surge, and to disconnect and reconnect the battery. All lights cleared, car behaved normally. During the last week of August, my car began revving unreasonably high on a long drive (at the 300 mile point) and it seemed as though gears were slipping- I was hitting the gas to accelerate and the car was not accelerating equally. This is a huge safety concern- particularly when going uphill on a highway and the car can just barely make it up the hill (i'm basically flooring the gas) and also a safety concern when switching lanes- the power is not there. I went to the dealer immediately after this. The dealer ran error codes and found none (as no lights returned). The dealer checked my spark plugs and said they were worn and replaced them (which is unreasonable at 21,000 miles). The problem was not resolved. I have since gone to two additional Honda dealers and both told me there is nothing wrong with the car- because no error codes appeared. I believe these problems are related to the eCVT as others have reported, and believe that the recall needs to be expanded.

First incident. 9/20/2025: car went forward when gear shift was in reverse. I had pulled my car into space on a slight incline in a parking garage. The space inclined downward toward a wall. I needed to back my car back a few inches away from the wall. I put my car into Reverse and applied light pressure on the accelerator. The car moved forward. I applied the brake, visually inspected the shift lever to make sure it was in reverse, and applied light acceleration again. Again the car moved forward. I put the car in Park, turned it off, restarted it, and put it into Reverse again, at which point it worked. Second incident, 9/24/2025: car lurched forward when I removed my foot from the accelerator. In a different parking garage, on level ground, I was driving under 7 MPH when I needed to slow down as another car approached from the side. I lifted my foot off the accelerator to slow (but had not applied the brake) and the car lurched forward. I braked, took my foot off the brake, and the car worked normally. These incidents put my car at risk of collision with a wall and another car coming toward me, respectively. The system is available for inspection on request. It has not yet been inspected by anyone, but is scheduled to go to the dealer for inspection. I did not see any messages or warning lamps.

I own a 2023 Honda CR-V Sport Hybrid and have experienced multiple instances of sudden unintended acceleration. The issue occurs intermittently, typically at low speeds (25–30 mph) during stop-and-go traffic, or when the vehicle transitions from EV to gas mode. During these incidents, the vehicle unexpectedly surges forward for 1–2 seconds, even while the brake pedal is applied. The suspected issue involves the electronic throttle control system or a malfunction during the hybrid system's EV-to-gas transition. There are no warning lights or error codes, and the issue occurs sporadically. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This behavior puts both my safety and that of others at risk, especially in heavy traffic or near pedestrians. The unexpected acceleration while braking can lead to rear-end collisions, property damage, or injury, as the vehicle moves unpredictably. Yes. A Honda service technician experienced the issue firsthand while driving my vehicle. He then tested a 2025 CR-V Hybrid and reported similar behavior, suggesting it might be “normal.” However, I strongly disagree, as the acceleration feels unsafe and abnormal. The vehicle has been inspected by the Honda dealership. A formal diagnosis was performed, but they did not find anything unusual. The service center stated they will not proceed further unless I can replicate the issue, which I cannot due to its intermittent nature. The vehicle has not been inspected by police, insurance, or independent mechanics yet. No. There were no warning lamps, alerts, or error messages before, during, or after the sudden acceleration events.

I got to know that I have two recalls open since October 2024. I called Honda campaign to follow up on the recalls as and I opened a case with them on [XXX]. The case number is [XXX]. I was referred to the dealer and when I contacted the dealer who sold my car, he said that he is repairing cars based on a waitlist and that parts are not available with them for both recalls. This car with its current condition is not safe as it is since I have 3 kids who frequently ride the car and one of then is a one year old baby and I saw similar cars went in serious fire due to those recalls. I need help to have this resolved ASAP. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I purchased 2023 Honda CRV AWD LX [XXX]. I took the vehicle to Honda World 1 Auto Center Drive, Louisville, Ky 40299. Advisor is Kathy Schnapp. She informed me there were metal shavings in the rear differential. Replacing the fluid is not covered under warranty. The issue is not that it is not covered but Ms Schnapp stated most Honda CRVs with All Wheel Drive experience metal shavings in the rear differential. I am wondering if the NHTSA has been notified of this and why there has not been more warning of this problem and recalls issued to repair them. What rights do I have about resolving this especially if it's common? I appreciate any information on this. Thank you....

My cars steering wheels starts to “stick” the further I drive. I notice when I’m driving on the interstate if my car starts to veer the steering wheel doesn’t easily turn. I have to yank the wheel in order to veer the car back on the road. I notice it started happening around November 2023 and it occurs most frequently the farther I drive.
