|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Horn is not adequate as a warning mechanism for safety. A large number of owners are complaining about this issue. Honda knows the horn is inadequate but instead of providing a suitable horn for the vehicle they are selling an add on horn for customers to purchase through the parts department. The horn provided with the vehicle should be of sufficient volume to serve as a safety device. This is not acceptable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2024 | STEERING | The steering wheel sticks and becomes stiff intermittently at various speeds. It seems to happen significantly less in cold temperatures (under 35°f). When performing a turn or slight correction, more bodily force is required to make the move which has resulted in exaggerated moves/corrections. This issue was presented to the dealership and their technician allegedly drove my vehicle and another of the same year/model and was unable to recreate the issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | We are having issues with our new CRV hybrid. We hear clicking sound whenever we are on uphill curvy road. Another issue is the driver’s side mirror appears distorted/blurry. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2024 | STEERING | We have a 2024 Honda CR-V Sport L. My wife drives the car mainly on the highway. She mentioned she noticed the steering "sticks" when trying to change lanes or make small corrections. Almost like lane assist is on but worse. I drove the car and confirmed I experienced the same issue. There are no warning lights telling me there is something wrong with the steering. It has caused my wife to have a couple of close calls. I am taking to the dealer today to have it looked at. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2024 | STEERING | Sticky steering developed after 3500 miles. When making minor adjustments, extra resistance was felt causing over adjustment sometimes. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2024 | STEERING | When driving in a straight line, the car pulls to the left, requiring me to correct the drift by steering the car to the right. There is a lot of effort put into correcting the gradual and progressive drifting of the car, especially during highway driving. Correcting the steering is a constant during the drive. The steering itself also feels "stiff." Much effort is needed to correct the steering, making it very difficult to traverse the roads, especially when quick and accurate response is needed to avoid debris on the road, potholes, other cars, and even simple tasks like lane change. This started happening even before the vehicle hit 1,000 miles on the odometer. Additionally, there were two occasions in which the power steering light came on the dash when remote starting the vehicle, but would turn off when cycling the car. The light came on once prior to the sticky steering issue and once more after having experienced the start of the sticky and stiff steering. I have not remote started the car since. The dealer has noted this, but could not find a reason why this is happening as a diagnostic check did not reveal any errors. Adding to the steering issue, there is a lot of effort needed to make right turns and left turns, even at low speeds. All of these issues could not be replicated by the dealer. However, the dealer did not take the vehicle on a prolonged drive nor on the highway at highway speed. The dealer has noted that if the problem persists, to take it back. It is still persisting. The car has 2,000 miles on it currently, and I have only had possession of this vehicle for one month. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | 2024 CRV showing errors concerning brake assist and lane departure. 1647 miles. I had a 2023 Sport Touring CRV. Same messages appeared. At 10,300 miles, when being serviced at the dealership for an oil change, tire rotation, and two service bulletins, I was informed of an “embedded” code saying the main camera needed replacing. Looking online, Honda has an issue. This seems to be happening frequently. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | Steering has slight “sticky” feeling requiring extra pressure to turn steering wheel which is discomforting as it feels you are fighting it. This could result in an over correction to steering and moving out of lane into another vehicle or guard rail. This usually occurs at highway speed. The dealer has indicated that it is a known issue and will replace steering components when available. No warnings, messages or other symptoms prior to issues. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | I started experiencing "sticky" steering (steering binding) mostly at highway speeds after the car has completely warmed up. The vehicle has EPS (Electronic Power Steering). The vehicle has less than 3,000 miles on it. The problem started less than 1000 miles ago. This condition makes the steering feel "unsure" at times. It almost feels like an old car with manual steering, when the steering box is failing. I will be taking it to the dealer for evaluation. No warning lights present. The problem occurs even when ALL driver assistance, lane departure systems, etc., are disabled. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | Steering seems to stick, causing overcorrection and almost causing loss of control. The vehicle is available for inspection. I came very close to losing control at highway speeds. The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no warnings and the problem seems to be getting more severe. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | Steering wheel sticks when trying to turn. Major safety concern. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The side mirror developed a crack without any apparent impact damage. My vehicle was securely parked inside the garage, and I discovered the cracked mirror when I woke up in the morning. It appears to be a broader problem, as evidenced by a Reddit forum where individuals who have bought the 2024 Honda CRV are sharing similar experiences.

| Jan 2024 | STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES | Steering wheel feels very heavy and breaks response little bit slow. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STRUCTURE | The side mirrors, especially the driver-side mirror, have considerable distortion and appear to be defective. The car was returned and the driver-side mirror was replaced, but the problem is still there. It seems to be a manufacturer defect and a recall should be investigated. Unable to see and/or focus clearly with the side mirrors. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Side view mirror cracked without any impact. I started backing up, looked away and when I looked back the mirror was cracked. Nothing hit it or was even near it. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Newer CRV’s windshield wash fluid is delivered through a rubber hose /nozzle that ends on the metal wiper arm, and is exposed to extreme cold temperatures. Other vehicles hoses terminate in the hood, where they are kept warm by the heat radiating from the engine. We just drove cross country, experiencing below zero temps, on highways with heavy traffic and precipitation, with often frozen lines, resulting in really constant, poor visibility., The fluid being used is rated for -30, yet the lines still froze up. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Side driver mirror cracked obstructing view. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | Steering become very stiff and hard to maneuver during increasing speeds | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | The supposedly “LED Headlights on this vehicle is very dim and very unsafe to drive. I have contacted Honda of Marysville Wa state about the headlights inability to provide light on the roads but was ignored. We almost had an accident because the headlights are so dim we almost hit another vehicle. This needs to be addressed by honda before something bad happens. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | We bought this 2024 CRV EXL just a few months ago and have less than 5000 miles. The steering catches and sticks at times. We have owned 5 new CRVS over the many years and this is NOT normal. Honda dealers want to say it’s “normal”. I am on a private Facebook 2023-2024 CRV site, and many have reported this issue. Some say it’s a steering rack. I don’t know but asking for your help as my wife doesn’t feel safe and we know it’s a manufactured issue.

| Jan 2024 | STEERING,SUSPENSION,LANE DEPARTURE | My CR-V Lane Keep Assist will pull my vehicle one way or the other jarringly violently, and will overcorrect itself the rest of the time. The result being that I have nearly totally stopped using the feature. Recently, though, I have noticed a sticking point just off of dead center when steering in either direction- at any speed. The worst part of this issue is that it causes turning to be unsmooth because the wheel doesn't turn smoothly. At any speed, I can notice the weighting of the steering wheel when I hit the (replicatible) sticking point- and then it is as if the vehicle "skips a few steering teeth" because it cause the wheel to turn a little more quickly as if to catch up to where I had intended to point the tires. This issue has persisted to the point that I googled to see if other owners were having this issue, and that's when I discovered that NHTSA had added the 2023 CR-V to an existing complaint involving Honda Civics with the same steering components. I wish to lodge my complaint in the hopes of making Honda and the NHTSA aware that this issue is also affecting 2024 CR-Vs. I am extra frustrated because I feel like my front suspension/steering components are clunking where that was not an issue over the early life of the vehicle. For reference, I have put 13000 miles on the vehicle since purchasing 07/27/2023. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | STEERING | I noticed that at approximately 45mph that my steering wheel started stick and then unstick resulting in the steering wheel jerking. Some occurrences are worse than others and it seems to be more noticeable while driving at highway speeds (45mph - 65mph). I researched this and found multiple forums with 2022 - 2024 Honda owners experiencing the same problem. I also noticed an open NHTSA investigation (Investigation: EA23003). | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,VISIBILITY/WIPER | The driver side rear-view mirror vibrates any time i am traveling over 40-50 mph. This makes it extremely hard to see what is happening behind me. This is a huge problem while at high way speeds and it needs to be rectified immediately. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | This hybrid model does not display red brake lights during regenerative braking, at any of the settings. I have have had two occurrences where the driver behind me was apparently not aware that my vehicle was slowing somewhat rapidly, and thus nearly drive into the back of my vehicle. One of those drivers mentioned that they did not see any brake lights even though I was slowing down, approaching an intersection. I can see how this might be a safety issue. IF Tesla can have this function on their cars software then why cannot Honda? My vehicle also has times when I am travelling on straight city streets with no traffic in front of me, where the automatic emergency braking come on quite firmly for a second or two, without any apparent reason. Again, this presents a possible safety hazard to the vehicles behind me who may be following a little closer than they should, and may possible drive in to the back of my vehicle. Again, I am not aware of any brake lights present on my vehicle when this happens. A big improvement would be in the manner in which the radar sees things and makes false applications of this braking system, as well as having teh vehicle brake lights activate when this system decides to engage. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Leaving a grocery store parking lot and car stalled out. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
