    I started my car with the remote start and a little over ten minutes later went out to clean off my car and i didn't want my car to turn off when the remote start timed out so i put my key in the ignition and turned it so the car would stay turned on while i cleaned off my car. As i was cleaning off my car i heard the doors lock with the keys in the ignition. *tr

    The tpms warning light has been coming on since not long after the car was purchased new. We are told by the dealer that the latest software upgrade has been installed. Annoying, useless light. Constantly re-setting. *tr

    My elderly mother died in a fire in her 2014 honda cr-v. There were no witnesses to the origin of the fire. The car was first seen when fully engulfed by flame, 10 to 20 minutes after my mother was seen getting into her car. Unknown if she let it idle before driving. She drove about 1200 feet. Her car was found in wet ivy at the side of the road. Her key was in her hand, and she was leaning towards the passenger…

    We bought the car in august 2014. Within 2 months of purchasing the vehicle, the light indicating that the tires needed air turned on. We had the wheels inflated and the light still remained on. We took it to the dealer and they did something to make the light indicating the tires needed to be inflated turn off. In about two months after that, the light turned on again. The vehicle was stationary and when we turned…

    Tpms warning light appeared on dashboard. Stopped at honda dealership. Tires were at correct pressure. We were shown where the button was on the dashboard to clear the tpms warning light. This has happened at least twice since the first incident. It was brought to the dealership the next time and we were told the tire pressure on all 4 tires was fine and they canceled the warning light on the dashboard. All of this…

    My crv started making grinding noises with ignition in sept 2014, approx. 6 months after i purchased it from kings honda in cincinnati, oh. During routine service at kings honda i inquired about the grinding and was told that " it was the vtc actuator in the crvs and this was a known problem to honda." the service manager told me that honda was issuing a recall for the problem soon. I haven't seen a recall yet and i…

    First thing in the morning on cold days, sometimes a grinding sound occurs when starting the engine that lasts about a second. It doesn't happen every cold morning, but it happens fairly regularly on cold mornings. I see that many people have complained about this problem and honda has not developed a solution. This problem needs to be fixed to ensure no damage is occurring to the engine. *tr

    Leaving for [redacted]; as we were about 60 miles from home the tpms (tire pressure monitoring system) low-tire light illuminated. We proceeded to pull off at a safe spot, examine the tires, check the tire pressure and found nothing wrong. The vacation ended there as we turned around and came home because we can no longer trust this vehicle. The tpms light has been coming on since day one! Originally i suspected the…

    Since we purchased this vehicle (new) it makes periodic electrical shorting noises when starting the vehicle (turning the ignition key). There is obviously an electrical problem with the ignition switch. It doesn't happen every time the vehicle is started, but many times. Our family is afraid the vehicle is eventually going to shock our hands - the vehicle now has about 15k miles on it but it has happened since the…

    Battery dies randomly and car will not start without a jump. Dealerships could not find problem with battery or car. After a year or so of this honda replaced battery. It's happening again within about a year. Stopped on the shoulder of busy hwy...no way to escape! There are too many people with the same issue. This needs to be adressed.

    Tpms light is on again for about the 5th or 6th time since i purchased the vehicle 3 weeks ago. Have attempted to reset per the vehicles manual, put car in park, turn on, push the tpms button, will flash twice and then drive for 30 minutes at a speed of between 30 and 60 mph. I did this and apparently the vehicle still did not calibrate. New car, totally frustrated especially to see that there are so many complaints…

A search on-line indicates that many 2014 owners have the same problem (one web site: http://www.carproblemzoo.com/honda/cr-v/2014/2014-honda-cr-v-tire-problems.php) .
