The door locks on my 2008 honda cr-v are locking constantly and do not allow me to unlock the car to get in or out of the vehicle. This is a very unsafe situation.

Rear passenger door lock cannot be locked. Keep unlocking by itself. Major safety issue. I've done my research and seems like a very common issue on 2007-2009 crv. Honda needs to fix this issue asap before anybody get hurts. *tr

I have the 2008 cr-v. About 2 months ago, all my door locks started automatically locking and unlocking themselves at around 9 or 10 miles per hour. I'm afraid to let my kids ride in the back seat now. What if one of them decided to hang on to the door handle and it opened accidentally while we were moving? I hope honda gets a handle of this problem and issues a recall to fix the problem. *tr

In march of 2013 the passenger door started to lock itself immediately following me unlocking it. I thought it was a fuse problem. Then on may 26,2013 my child noticed that the back passenger door had begun to do the same thing. To fix the problem on both doors would be upwards of $440+. This seems to be a serious issue with all crvs and a real safety issue for those with young children. *tr

Can't open rear hatch. Right rear door doesn't lock. Search online revealed this is a common issue. While it may be deemed an inconvenience, there are circumstances which make this a safety issue that should be addressed by the manufacturer. *tr

I have a 2008 cr-v ex with sun roof from honda. The car can not be driven over 25 miles per hours with one of the rear windows open. Over 50 miles per hours the noise is so bad that the car is shaking and the ear are hurting. I believe it can easily injure someone ear and it should be addressed. When i bought the car no one tell me i will not be able to drive my car with the rear windows open except if i open the…
