I don't know where to file this under. The heating system is an absolute joke. I paid a lot of money for this not to be an issue in a brand new car. . Not safe in conditions where it's at frigid temps. I have been sitting in my car for a half an hour and it's still not warm. Uncalled for. Something needs to be done.

On two separate occasions the "brake" signal displayed and the vehicle came to a sudden screeching and complete stop. There were no vehicles or any other obstruction in front of me and thank goodness no one behind me. I was in motion at a speed of about 20 mph. The sudden and without reason stop jolted me forward without warning and it was very painful. I took the vehicle to the dealer i purchased it from and was…

I bought a 2017 honda crv touring three months ago. On 11/11/2017, it was hesitating to start. Once it did, all my sensors went off so i took it up to the shop and dropped it off and got a loaner. They assumed a weak battery. On monday, 11/13/2017, i was informed by the service department that a rat had chewed through my engine wire harness and it was not covered under the warranty. I would have to pay over 1600.00…

Since purchasing my honda cr-v 1.5 turbo in 2017 i have experienced two episodes of my car stalling out while driving on nyc streets. On both of these occasions i narrowly avoided getting rear ended and being forced into the car in front of me, due to the fact that the car behind me swerved to avoid colliding into me. I have also experienced many failures of my honda sense system whereby my adaptive cruise control…

I understand that honda manufactured all its cars with soy based insulation on wiring which can attract rats to chew. Obviously, this is a problem. When i called my dealership they wanted about $500 to fix it. I shouldn't have to pay for this problem

On more than one occasion i've come outside to discover all 4 of my 2017 crv's windows and moonroof open. I've gotten rain damage because my windows and roof ended up open during a major rainstorm. The "venting' feature of the car apparently was activated without my knowledge. I have since learned (in discovering similar complaints online) that this is a known and common problem. It represents a defect in the design…
