This has been an ongoing issue. Car won't start at times. The most recent incident i was getting gas at wawa then got back in and car wouldn't turn over and dash board lights stated flickering and a buzzing sound was coming from under the dashboard. Then on a side street it took 3 attempts to start. I took to mechanic who changed the starter 2 different times in 2 days. And now it won't start again. Also my oil is…

I am writing you because i had to have the started replaced on my honda 2015 cr-v. The vin number is: [xxx]; va license [xxx]; mileage 47,332. It is unreasonable to have a vehicle of that year and such a low mileage with starter problems and having the started replaced. The final bill for the work conducted was $727.16, including parts, labor and taxes. I suspect that starter problems are inherited from a poor…

Honda cr-v needs random jump starts despite having a new battery. Problem began less than a year of ownership. Headlights dim on occasion after initial start as if the vehicle was powered by battery alone instead of alternator. Dealership initially stated that it was the battery and then said that they could not find the problem. I asked the mechanics if the car's computer did self diagnostics after stopping the…

Multiple honda batteries died on the same car. Original battery died within months of purchasing brand new car. The dealer replaced then the replacement did the same thing. They replaced it. Now the battery is dying again. Will not hold a charge for even 20 minutes. Wake up in the morning. Dead. Jump it. Dead at the very next stop. There are many many many stories on honda message boards all over the internet of…

The vehicle always seemed to have issues when idling. After 3 years, it turns out that the alternator had a bad diode. I replaced the battery after getting stuck and then followed up with a diagnostic of the starter, alternator and battery. Immediately after replacing the battery, the alternator was only charging the battery 84%. In addition, it seems that there is an issue with the batteries used by honda and some…

When i called the dealer on the…

Rabbits have eaten the power steering 3 times in 2 months. They love the pepper tape they are wrapping it with to fix the problem. My husband and i had to force a rabbit out of it, rabbit was determined to take the wires with it. Honda won't give me a permanent fix. Cant believe they are allowed to use food products on vehicles. 1st 2 times vehicle was found disabled, 3rd time found the rabbit in it, started the…

Battery discharges frequently (car will not start) beginning when less than three years old, new battery same problem. Happens randomly. Dealer could not find problem (even though it happened once in their shop). Not related to frequent short trips (dealer suggestion) as we tracked occurrence with different trip lengths with same unpredictable results. Keeping battery on charger daily seems to help, but must be done…

This car has been an absolute nightmare. I literally cannot keep it running. Honda now uses soy based wiring which attracts rodents. I have several other cars in the driveway plus farm equipment.

Had to have the power steering sub harness replaced twice last fall and windshield washer tank, at 3020 miles, 4434 miles, 5045 miles. First two repairs…
