They said it stopped working again even after…

My vehicle was stalled in the early morning of july 17, 2019 in a parking lot and towed to a honda dealership nearby. The mechanic's diagnosis was that the vehicle stall was caused by the shortage of all fuses in the primary fuse box due to leaking oil from the timing chain cover of the engine. The mechanic mentioned that the oil leak occurred for a while so it shorted out the fuses through the incased electrical…

The compass indicator light will continuously flash the wrong direction. This can happen when starting the car as well as when the car is running either in motion or stationary. Following the recalibration instructions in the manual (driving slowly in tight circles) will usually fix the problem temporarily. This fix may last a day or as little as 10 minutes.

The passenger door will no open from the outside or inside when the door is unlocked. Being parked at home, i went to open the door from the outside and was unsuccessful. Dealership says the door actuator is out and they see this on honda's very frequently. I consider this a major safety feature and feel it should have already been recalled if it has been known. Apparently this is not uncommon for honda's and they…

We have 4 instances where we have been unable to start the crv because of a low battery problem. This necessitated using a jump starter to start the car. I have measured the voltage with a multi meter and after driving for a while the voltage will be about 12.4 volts and the next morning it will be about 11.8. My load tester indicated a weak rating. So obviously it appeared to me that the battery needed to be…

Car is only 13 months old and had a dead battery twice when nothing was left on. This is unacceptable because i spent $30,000 on this car and my loan is for 4 more years. Honda dealership says battery and charging system is fine. Not what i was expecting from honda, car is not reliable at all. I'm scared to take it far because i will get stranded. This needs to be fixed.
