Visibility/Wiper
The windshield developed a crack on its own while the car was parked in a covered parking. There was no impact/damage. The crack seems to be caused by pool design/workmanship

Noticed a line at the bottom of the windshield when getting out of the car last week. Got out to investigate and saw a thin line running the length of both windshield wipers. The crack was in the black part of the windshield at the defrost line. The crack seemed to spread after cold nights. I have informed my honda dealership and am waiting to hear from them.

The heat in the 2018 crv does not operate safely during average winter temperatures (north dakota). When it is actually cold outside, below zero degrees fahrenheit, the heat is non existent causing a terrible problem with defrosting windows. I brought the vehicle to the dealer for resolution. They stated that it was a known issue with this model engine and there was no fix in place from honda. I proceeded with an…

I live in new hampshire, a very cold climate. My honda cr-v ex has remote start. With every other car i have owned, you remote start the vehicle, it idles for 10-15 minutes and your car gets warm and the windshield defrosts. This vehicle does not do this. It remains cool, and the front windshield does not defrost. This is unacceptable in a cold weather climate. The engine has to be run on the highway for many miles…

From the lack of heat coming out (engine very very slow to warm up) the windshield does not clear off well when its snowing. I never owned a car like this, its ridicules how long it takes to warm up. It makes driving very dangerous when its snowing

Side mirror rear visibility, particularly the right-hand side, is dangerously low. For example, when preparing to back into a parking space, one can not see the white lines to guide you in. Our previous 3rd generation (2007-2011) crv had superb side mirror visibility. The only way to correct honda's dangerous and inconvenient design flaw is to offer "reverse tilt door mirrors", which automatically tilt downward when…

The front windshield trim pieces on the exterior of the vehicle are designed such that there is a trough or channel that runs up the height of the windshield on both sides. The depth of the channel varies; being deeper at the bottom of the windshield and tapering down to less deep at the top of the windshield. When driving in the rain with the windshield wipers on, water is deposited into the driver's side channel…
