    Intermittently the "safety system" items stop working- adaptive cruise, lane assist, etc. This happens even when there is no rain/ fog/ physical obstruction, etc. After few hours it starts working. Happens every few weeks.

    I own a 2018 crv purchased new in august 2018. While sitting at a stop light on a slightly drizzly, approximately 45-ish degree morning this week, i heard a loud bang/explosion followed by a slight crackling noise right over my head. I immediately pulled my sunroof shade shut and when i arrived at work (about a 1/2 mile down the road), i discovered that my sunroof had completely shattered. Because i pulled the shade…

    Our sunroof glass exploded outwards while driving on a clear expressway. We had been traveling for about 4 hrs, and the sunroof glass bubbled outwards and exploded in many many small fragments. There was no impact with an outside object and the glass was clearly blown outward. We suspect the heat buildup between the glass and the moon pressurized the air and the glass failed, exploding.

    I was driving on the highway, approximately 65 mph, travelling straight east with no turns. Traffic was moderate, time was 5:40 pm. For no apparent reason, my moonroof exploded, i was very startled and swerved barely missing the car beside me. The sunscreen was closed, and i was not injured, but shattered glass would have rained on the car behind me. Incident occurred on 11/01/2019

    The gear shift button on my 2018 crv broke off as i was shifting from drive to park. I was parked at the time, however, once it falls out the only way to shift gears again is to shove it back in place. It dangles and doesn't stay situated in the gear shift and sometimes doesn't go back in easily. This is unsafe and needs to be recalled with a better solution than replacing the button with the same button.

    Rear passenger side door window glass shattered while driving on the highway. I heard a loud pop before the glass shattered. There were no vehicles to the right of or in front of my car when it happened, since i was in the right-most lane of traffic. Therefore, the glass could not have been shattered by debris.

    Lane departure and collision control often engage without cause. Twice i have been driving and the lane departure sensors go off and vehicle automatically brakes for no obvious reason. It appears that it may be falsely reading shadows or wet roadways. One incident was on a city street at about 40 mph. The other was on the interstate at around 70 mph.

    The rear center and rear left passenger seatbelt latch requires for the two seatbelts to be entangled together to be latched. It is clearly a safety issue as they cannot be used in tandem, which means that only two occupants can be safely transported in the rear.
