The side visibility on my 2007 honda crv is dangerous. I have never had a problem like this with any of the numerous vehicles i have owned. This has happened multiple times at a variety of speeds. Regardless of how i set the side view mirrors, i have nearly caused collisions because of the 'blind spot.' because i am aware of this design deficiency, i am as careful as possible when changing lanes, i use my signal,…

Wipers do not shut off after turning them off. When they do finally shut off, they park in the middle of the windshield. Also, the intermittent feature does not work whatsoever when this occurs. This problem only occurs during rain events. Wipers work properly on dry days. *tr

There is a design flaw in our 2007 honda cr-v. In winter precipitation conditions, the front windshield wiper freezes. It is impossible to clear it without getting out of the car and clearing it manually.

This causes…

Windshield was smeared with road salt and debris making visibility very poor. Next day when temps went over freezing the washer started spraying…

On 2007 and newer honda crvs,, the side view mirrors are not convex as the are on most vehicle. This design defect results in a very large blind area, especially on the driver's side, that is still causing numerous problems after 2 years of driving due to inability to see cars driving anywhere close to the car. I have discussed this significant blind spot with several other cr-v owners and all have felt this is a…

This is the third winter with our 2007 honda cr-v and there is a huge design flaw affecting the proper functioning of the windshield wipers during precipitation in cold weather. The snow and ice builds up in the large well beneath the wiper blades,causing the wiper blades to get stuck on this snow and ice, as well as the frozen precipitation sticking to the wiper blades. We have to constantly stop, get out of the…
