| Jul 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Emergency braking system came on when there was nothing in our path. Very alarming. We were traveling at a low rate of speed-- 25 miles per hour and suddenly the Emergency braking system engaged and jolted us (driver and passenger) forward...this is very dangerous and could cause severe injury or death if it occurred on a highway | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2024 | STEERING | The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while pulling into a parking spot at 2 MPH, the steering wheel locked while straightening the wheel, and the passenger side rear panel crashed into a cement post. There were no reported injuries, police report, or air bag deployments. While making turns and driving around curves, the steering wheel continued to seize. In addition, the vehicle was jerking. There were no warning lights illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 19,005. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | 19,005 |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | I am experiencing steering wheel sticking and clunkig after the car warms up and typically 40 minutes into the drive. The dealership has denied this and claimed it was a low voltage issue with the battery. While turning in a gentle curve it sticks and requires more effort to steer and also makes a clucking sound. I am concerned about the ability to control my vehicle and that if the steering sticks I may crash. I have reported the issue with Honda but they say that all I can do is take the car to the dealership for diagnostics. Two different dealerships have had it for extended times and claimed nothing is wrong however I have video of me driving and this occuring on multiple occassions. Honda's denial of this issue will cause injuries to bystanders. No warning lights have come on. The issues began in november of 2023 and are progressively getting worse. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | Intermittent issue with steering sticking and failing to correct without manual intervention. Specifically: Trouble maintaining lane - requires significant steering/correction Steering sticks in place on curves and must be manually corrected Steering sticks and makes “clicking” or “creaking” noise at slow speeds I’ve had the car checked out at the dealership twice and they’ve been unable to find any problem. However, problem persists. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | “Sticky steering” Seems like there is an investigation into this already but no recall for the 2022 cr-v. Sticky steering causes the wheel to stick in place and require more force to turn the wheel resulting in dangerous jerky steering at high speeds. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel became abnormally stiff, making it difficult to maneuver the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the EPS gearbox needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to Technical Service Bulletin Number: 22-011. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 30,000 |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | Lately there is resistance in the steering. When driving with wheel in "fixed" position such as straight lane or gradual turn on exit ramp, it is more difficult to turn the wheel out of this fixed position. The problem seems to be getting worse, and I am concerned about safety. What if at some point it resists moving all together and I am unable to steer? Honda dealer checked it out and found no codes and said there is nothing wrong. I have been driving Hondas with EPS for years - this is not typical. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | STEERING | Since fall 2023 the steering has been sticking and jerky, originally at highway speeds but now at nearly all speeds. It feels like lane-assist is engaging but it’s not. This becomes dangerous when the steering requires more pressure than anticipated, potentially resulting in overcompensation. For example, when traveling 70 hours mph and navigating a slight curve in the road, the steering wheel will stick and nearly cause a lane change which requires a quick turn of the wheel. The vehicle was taken to a Honda dealer and I participated in a ride-along with the technician, who could not reproduce the issue. There are no warning lamps or codes visible. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE,POWER TRAIN | The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed and making a turn, the vehicle temporarily lost motive power. The contact stated that upon depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle responded as needed. The contact stated that the failure recurred intermittently while turning. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was unknown. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | SUSPENSION | Had my 3rd service done on my 2022 Honda CR-V EX-L 5/24/21 and for the third time the rear end was out of alignment. When I researched the issue online I found that this was an issue with this body style CR-V and a TSB was issued for this due to the excessive tire wear that is happening due to this alignment issue. My tires had been making a whomping sound since after my second service at 15000 miles. My vehicle now has 22750 miles on the tires and has worn unevenly causing the whomping sound and need to be replaced prematurely. They have worn down from 10.1/32nds to between 5/32nd to 6/32nds depending where on the tire you measure. This is due to the alignment being out and causing this uneven wear. After showing the dealership the TSB about this they reached out to their American Honda district rep who graciously agreed to assist in helping with the cost of replacing my tires due to this issue. I had also contacted Honda Consumer Affairs to report my unhappiness with this issue and they informed me that my year model was not covered by the issued TSB 20-081 and 20-048 and refused to honor the repair under 20-081 and pay to have the alignment done to the new specs described in TSB 20-048. They stated It only covers through model year 2018-2021 which is the same body style as the 2022 and I am having the same issue that was reported as the previous years vehicle. The alignment should not be going out in that short of time and causing excessive tire wear. I did not have this issues with my two previous Honda's being driven over the same roads. The 2022 model CR-V should be included in the TSB's. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | Steering is difficult - it sticks and requires extra effort to steer the vehicle | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | While exiting the highway the steering wheel stuck in a turn and it extra took force to straighten to stay within the limits of the roadway. The care swerved form due to over correcting and took work to keep it on the road. The steering seems to have a sticking point in it causing to over correct to get past this point in the gearbox. I have also noticed a clicking noise at low speeds when moving the steering wheel from side to side. I had originally thought that this was due to the lane keep assist but this was turned off at the time of the near accident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | While on a 5 hour trip on the freeway/highway, when following a right curve, my steering wheel hesitated before returning to the left as the curve straightened out. This occurred at every significant right curve for the duration of the drive. It does not happen at less than 60 MPH. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | Steering wheel becomes "jerky" and sticks, then suddenly releases causing car to move quickly in one direction. Difficult to keep in place. Also makes loud popping sound when turning. This can cause car to come in contact with whatever is beside you, a car in another lane, or a barrier or ditch on the opposite side. This can obviously cause an accident putting driver and passengers in danger and also those not in the vehicle. The problem has been confirmed by the dealer I purchased the car from and they have stated it is unsafe for highway travel. They said I could drive around town, but that prohibits my driving to other areas. Also, feels unsafe driving even locally. They have ordered new system but says part is on backorder and they don't know when it will be in. There were no warning lights regarding this issue. Car has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance or others, just the Honda dealer where purchased. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | Problem with car was first noticed around 16,300 miles. The severity of the problem is intermittent. Sometimes it happens about 15- 20 times in a mile and at other times just a few. The steering wheel is pulled to the right when not steering in that direction. It almost feels like the lane assist is on, but it is not. Also, when backing out of a parking spot and the wheel is pulled at a sharp angle there is a creaking sound and the steering wheel has intermittent resistance. The car was brought to a Honda service center at 16,598 and they could not reproduce the problem until I drove the car with them and then they agreed that there is a problem. I was told it needs a gearbox/motor set, which is on backorder. I was told that I could still drive my car. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | Steering sticks significantly when turning left, I have to use force to correct the steering when it sticks. On the highway any left steering adjustments from wind or lane changes the steering sticks and I have to pull right on the steering wheel to correct the issue. This is not safe at all | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | When driving 25-45 mph on winding roads, the front right tire feels like it's grabbing the road when I'm following a slight right hand curve in the road - then the steering wheel bounces back when I straighten the wheels to follow the road. The steering wheel feels twitchy while I'm driving at speeds under 50 mph. No one has been injured or put in danger to this point in time when this happens. I had the car serviced on 5/1/2024 and a Tech drove the car but wasn't able to duplicate the experience. The tires were rotated and a 4 wheel alignment was done. However, the same issue appeared after leaving the dealership. It's listed as a 45HOZ05 - Suspension Concern. I leased this 2022 CRV Touring AWD on October 28, 2022 and the Steering Problem started occurring in late 2023. I called my salesman while I was driving and experiencing the problem in late 2023 and told him about the weird steering. The first year I drove the car, there weren't any issues. But at about 8,500 miles, the pulling while steering started. There haven't been any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms before or during the problem. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | sticky steering while driving above 25 mph. Steering feels as if there is a "catch" in it and will become "stuck" which makes the driver have to make adjustments to the steering wheel to make it "unstick"; especially noticable at highway speed in a sweeping left hand turn. drivers noticed this starting to occur approx. 1000 miles ago, and it is getting progressivley worse. no accident "yet", vehicle has not been seen by a dealer yet. NO warning lamps, indicator lights or messages | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | The steering sticks/binds when making small corrections in turns. When sticking it requires extra effort to turn, and then will over-correct. Problem seems worst when the steering wheel is turned between 15 degrees or more from center. Problem is intermittent and seems to get worse the farther the car is driven without stopping. Left hand decreasing radius curves seem to be the worst with the wheel sometime snapping/popping back when the accelerator is applied at the exit end of a curve. Maintaining control within my lane in a left turn at 30-70 mph is difficult when problem is most acute. This is definitely a safety issue which is disconcerting at best and dangerous at worst. Sometimes can feel the stickiness even when sitting still and turning the wheel past 20 degrees off-center, with occasional popping noises coming from the steering box. I am very concerned since this problem has gotten markedly worse in the last six months, even though it is still not consistent each time driven. There is definitely something wrong in the steering gearbox with something causing it to bind intermittently. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | STEERING | Rack of rack & pinion requires replacing. I had it checked at a Honda dealership. Problem was diagnosed. Told the part was back ordered until mid-September nationwide. Was told car was drivable. Internet has many reports of “sticky steering”. Although drivable, driving is not safe, according to many sources. I am uncertain if Honda covers this cost. It is not a listed recall. However, many reports of this problem exists. I don’t want my wife or me to be exposed to harm & we could harm others. Honda should take greater efforts to quickly take care of this dangerous situation. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | 3 times now, I am driving straight and flat about 35-40 MPH, dry conditions, and the AEB triggers with nobody around me at all. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | My car has 10,800 miles on it. Yesterday as I was driving, I noticed the steering wheel sticking to where it needed extra force to turn it past that point. This is happening at very low speeds and at highway speeds. There is also a click/clunk noise that sounds like it’s coming from under the hood whenever this steering issue happens. Having to force the wheel makes me overcorrect which could make me go into another lane. I’m taking it to a dealer tomorrow. There are no warning lights or messages. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | My 2022 CRV has had an intermittent issue where the steering wheel will stick when driving on extended gradual turns such as freeway off-ramps. The sticking steering has caused me to over steer multiple times. I notice that when the issue is present that there is also a creaking noise when turning the wheel. I have brought the vehicle to two different honda dealers and neither has been able to replicate the issue. There are no warning lamps or messages when the problem state occurs. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Collision Mitigation Braking System malfunctioned on 4/23/24 causing automatic abrupt braking when driving over metal hole cover in road. The braking was so intense the car behind our family nearly collided with our car. In the moment this happened the car was not in driver’s control as a result of malfunction. Contacted local Honda dealer by phone who was familiar with the issue and advised there is no doubt the cause is the CMBS and there is no diagnostics or resolution for the problem. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | My Body Control Module failed and has been confirmed by the dealer. They are replacing it this morning. It’s been failing for close to a year I didn’t realize. It would set off the tire pressure monitor, caused the battery to die and turn on the brights. 3 days ago the alarm kept going off and turning the dashboard on. When I drove it to the dealer, multiple electronic systems were not working correctly. For a - barely- 3 year old car this isn’t a component that should be going bad! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
