While in low idle (less than 750 rpm) vehicle shudders while in drive or "s" gear. Shudder decreases if car is shifted to neutral, or if brake continues to be applied and a bit more rpms are introduced by tapping the accelerator. Happens in either regular drive or eco mode. Doesn't happen all the time, but is annoying when it happens.

I bought a brand new with 6 miles on the vehicle and after a week took it back to the dealer to find out what's causing that vibrating / shaking feeling when the car is in idle or at a red light , car shakes a lot and can really focus on the steering wheel , dealer told me that they are aware of the problem and suppose my sales person that been working there for 15 years don't know nothing about this problem and the…

There is an issue with the 2015 honda cr-v where the car vibrates and rattles significantly when idling in drive with brake depressed. The rpm seems to drop down to 600 and the engine starts making noise and vibrating. At the present time it is only an inconvenience and irritating but i feel that if this continues them we may be looking at premature wear and tear of parts just due to the excess vibrations.

When at a stop and in idle the car vibrates as if there is not enough rpm's to keep it running properly. Also vibrates when driving slowly or at a lower rpm. Waiting for a recall as honda has admitted that there is something wrong with the car due to the transmission and engine combination.

Vibrations felt thru steering column, pedals and floor in the rpm range 1,000-1,500. Happens during all normal driving speeds, very annoying and have requested a full refund.

Power train started to do unnecessary a pushing and pulling. This could be several things or a combination of throttle sensor (drive by wire throttle), g-force sensor, software cvt auto-calibration that never got turned off and software cvt auto-calibration buffer overrun every 4400000 meters. These are all potential safety issues by inducing more dynamic tensions outside the designed intentions where the power…

A strong vibration when vehicle is stopped and in drive. The vibration rattles the whole car- you can see the vibration in open windows, the passenger seat, the gear shift. Uncomfortable drive and lack of confidence in the safety of my vehicle. Scared to drive my car on long distances. First honda- probably last. *tr

Severe distracting vibration of power train, when idling at stoplight, in drive, with foot on brake. Also vibrates at low speed, under power, in the 1000-2000 rpm range. Very annoying and distracting in traffic. The power train sometimes even shudders as though going over a rumble strip, particularly when under load, transitioning through the 2000 rpm range. Not sure if it is engine, or transmission, or both. Makes…

My honda cr-v vibrates at idle while in gear at approximately 500-600 rpms. It also vibrates while accelerating at all speeds under approximately 2100-2200 rpms. This can't be good for the longevity of the engine and is distracting, hence a safety concern. *tr

I drove it on a trip (about 600 miles total) and it was extremely irritating the whole time i was on the highway. The…

Car has significant vibrations when rpms are in low end of range. I brought in for them to look with 1169 miles on odometer on march 18 and was told it is "consistent" with other crvs. I stated that vibrations were in the range of 1500-2000 rpms. As of april 14, issue has gotten worse, with vibrations ranging from 600-2500. I now feel slippage during acceleration. Very unnerving. I worry the vibrations will continue…
