Feb 2026 ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM Vehicle was purchased new on 5/17/2024. On January 16, 2026 the vehicle was brought into a Honda dealership because of 2 lingering issues. 1) It had low power while driving uphill on the freeway. When driving the vehicle from the Bay Area to Reno, the vehicle was unable to keep up with the flow of traffic travelling at the speed limit. Vehicles behind us were agitated. We did not know if this was normal or not and we wanted to have the car checked out. 2) The engine sounded different after the trip to Reno. Youtube videos, including some by Honda dealers had advised that the crv hybrid made noises which were considered normal. We wanted to know if the noise that we we're hearing was normal. The vehicle was in the shop for 26 days. The dealer confirmed the low power but had difficulty diagnosing the engine noise, except that it was not normal. The dealer brought in resources from Honda techline on multiple occasions to assist in diagnosis. During the course of the 26 days in the shop, the dealer ultimately found it necessary to rebuild the entire engine, including replacing the block, cylinder heads, lifters, fuel injector, etc.... We feel fortunate that we did not experience the more extreme loss of power and limp home mode that has been reported. We are very concerned about the future reliability of the vehicle. From the research that we have done, it appears that the primary cause of many of the engine failures experienced by this year/model are due to failure of the fuel injector system. What is really odd, is that the fuel injector system on our vehicle was inspected by the dealer on February 22, 2025, i.e., a year before we brought the vehicle in for the current issues.

Feb 2026 SEAT BELTS The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the passenger’s side rear seat belt failed to remain secured inside the buckle. The contact stated that the seat belt sensor remained illuminated, and the seat belt was not secured. The Part Number was 6155974. The dealer was contacted and confirmed that the part was not covered under warranty. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and directed the contact to the dealer for the vehicle to be inspected and repaired. The failure mileage was 39,715.

Feb 2026 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE While driving under normal conditions on a dry road (no snow or ice), the vehicle experienced a sudden loss of braking performance while in motion. The vehicle was traveling approximately 10–15 mph and approaching an intersection with a red traffic light. A warning message appeared stating: “Brake system problem. Brake performance may be reduced. See your dealer.” Immediately after this message, braking performance was significantly reduced. Multiple attempts to slow the vehicle using the brake pedal resulted in minimal deceleration. The stopping distance was much longer than expected for the speed and conditions. The vehicle only came to a stop after the brake pedal was pressed with full force. Shortly after the initial brake warning, multiple additional safety-related systems went offline, including collision avoidance and other braking-related driver assistance systems. Approximately five to six warning messages appeared, indicating a cascading failure of safety systems while the vehicle was still in motion. The driver was able to slowly maneuver the vehicle to the side of the road and park safely. No collision occurred. However, shortly before this incident, the vehicle had been driven on a highway. If the same failure had occurred at higher speeds or in traffic, it could have resulted in a serious crash or injury. The vehicle is relatively new (approximately two years old, low mileage) and has been routinely maintained. There were no prior warning signs before this event. The vehicle is currently available for inspection at a dealership. A preliminary dealer explanation suggested a possible low or discharged battery; however, the cause of the braking failure has not been clearly established. This incident involved loss of braking performance while the vehicle was in motion, presenting a significant safety risk.

Feb 2026 VISIBILITY/WIPER 1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The rear windshield (tempered glass) and the integrated rear defroster heating element system. Yes, the vehicle and the shattered glass (contained within the frame/cargo area) are available for immediate inspection. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Luckily, this incident occurred when I entered the vehicle not on a roadway. If it had occurred when I was driving its is quite unsafe. The spontaneous failure occurred with a loud explosion, creating an immediate distraction and startle hazard. The shattering resulted in tempered glass shards entering the cabin and falling onto the exterior roadway. This failure compromises the structural integrity of the vehicle, obstructs rear visibility, and exposes the interior to the elements. Had this occurred at highway speeds or with passengers in the rear seat, the risk of injury from glass spray or a secondary collision due to driver distraction would be significant. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?: No. I contacted Honda of Lynnwood to have the failure confirmed and inspected, but they declined to schedule an appointment. They stated they could not address the issue because it is not classified as a "recall," despite the existence of a Voluntary Production Update for this specific defect. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others?: Not yet. The vehicle is currently awaiting inspection. I am seeking this inspection from Honda of Lynnwood as part of the formal claim process, but have been met with resistance from the dealership. 5. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lamps or electronic messages. The failure was spontaneous.

Jan 2026 POWER TRAIN,SERVICE BRAKES my 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid regarding the vehicle's stability when shifted into "Park." Upon selecting "Park" and releasing the brake pedal, the vehicle exhibits an excessive rocking motion, surging forward and backward approximately four times before coming to a rest. This is not the standard "settling" common in automatic transmissions; it is a repeated oscillatory movement that suggests a failure in the parking engagement or a lack of coordination with the brake system. This creates a safety hazard, as the vehicle does not feel securely anchored, increasing the risk of a roll-away or injury to passengers exiting the vehicle.

Jan 2026 STRUCTURE The Incident: On January 16, 2026, around 9:00 AM, while I was driving on the Edens Expressway from Glenview to Evanston, I heard a loud "explosion-type" sound.   Safety Factor: The moonroof spontaneously combusted, but the sunshade was closed due to the 30-degree snowy weather, which fortunately prevented glass from falling on me.   Dealer Inspection: Muller Honda inspected the vehicle and confirmed that the breakage was not caused by rocks, external influences, or negligence.   Dispute: Despite the car being under warranty and evidence from the dealer, Honda has refused to take accountability. There have been similar reports from other owners and past class action lawsuits involving CR-V models from 2022 to 2025.

Jan 2026 EXTERIOR LIGHTING The headlight system is critically deficient when operating the vehicle at night whenever the roads are wet, especially during active precipitation, and especially in poorly lit areas when there is oncoming traffic. The headlights cannot penetrate the water on the roadway and fail to reflect back lane markings most likely due to inferior strength and poor choice of color since White and Blue wavelengths scatter more with water on the roadway. In multiple instances I have had near miss accidents due to being unable to see clearly marked lane markers while I cannot utilize my high beams due to oncoming traffic. I can easily reproduce anytime there is active rain and am willing to let my car be inspected. I also can provide dashcam video upon request. The dealer has not confirmed the issue due to needing precipitation, poorly lit areas and the time of day being night which is after their working hours. The dealer also does not support the installation of fog lights on this model. There are no warning messages, lamps or otherwise. Others on forums such as Reddit acknowledge this is a major issue. I have never felt more unsafe operating any motor vehicle before in the conditions listed above than I am now with this low mileage 2024 CR-V.

Dec 2025 STEERING,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM Subject: Safety Recall Concern - VIN: [XXX] - Location: Ukraine Message: "I am writing to report a safety concern regarding my 2024 Honda CR-V (VIN: [XXX] ), which was originally manufactured for the U.S. market and is currently located in Ukraine. According to the official Honda MyGarage portal, my vehicle has two active and unremedied safety recalls: NHTSA Recall 24V-763 (Manufacturer Code: PJW) - High-Pressure Fuel Pump Leak. NHTSA Recall 24V-744 (Manufacturer Code: SMM) - Steering Gearbox (EPS) Friction issue. Given the serious nature of these defects—specifically the risk of fuel leaks/fire and the potential loss of steering control—I am concerned about the safety of operating this vehicle. As the car is now in Ukraine, I would like to request assistance in ensuring that the necessary improved parts (the high-pressure fuel pump and the steering gearbox components) are made available to an authorized Honda dealer in Ukraine to perform these critical safety repairs. I look forward to your guidance on how to proceed with these safety remedies internationally.

Dec 2025 Insert, Padding The foam padding on the seat has detached from the base and has split into two separate pieces. Each time I place my daughter in the car seat, the padding shifts and moves, causing her to sit unevenly and no longer securely on the seat. This issue puts my child at a safety risk. The foam padding is supposed to remain secured and absorb energy in the event of an accident. Because it is separating and moving out of place, it cannot function as intended, which is extremely concerning for a product designed for protection. We have only been using this car seat for roughly three months, and it was purchased brand new. The car seat has not been inspected by anyone yet, but it is available for inspection if needed. I have also reached out to the manufacturer, and they informed me that they will not take any action to resolve the issue.

Dec 2025 ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM On 12/6/24, while driving at highway speed, my engine made a LOUD EXPLOSIVE SOUND followed by immediate power loss—life-threatening. Vehicle couldn't exceed 65 mph despite full throttle, engine wouldn't idle, became inoperable. Had to merge right and limp to dealership in traffic. THIRD catastrophic failure in recent months at only 11,700 miles. First (10/19/24, 11,174 miles): Multi-system errors, inoperable, 21 days out. Complete cylinder head replacement (Cylinder 2). Second (12/2/24): Identical errors two weeks later. Cylinder 4 misfire, fuel injector replaced, 3 days out. Different cylinder proves systemic defect—50% of engine affected. Third (12/6/24): Highway breakdown. "Repaired" in hours with spark plugs only—inadequate for explosive failure. Service advisor admitted "whole part might have potential issue" but Honda policy prohibits preventive replacement "until really broken"—knowingly allowing defective vehicles until catastrophic failure. Dealership attempted release without highway test; conducted only after I demanded it. No explosive sound explanation. Refused diagnostics, compression testing, internal inspection. First two failures had dashboard warnings at low speed. Third had ZERO immediate warning—normal to explosive failure instantly at highway speed (warnings appeared 2 hours later). Unpredictable and extremely dangerous. Explosive sound indicates severe internal damage—not just spark plugs. Evidence: 11,700 miles too young. Specific cylinders (2, 4) suggest manufacturing defect. Dealership admitted defect. Immediate recurrence after major repairs. Vehicle at Parkway Honda (1575 VFW Pkwy, West Roxbury, MA), available for inspection. Honda case #16033311/12. MA AG/BBB complaints filed. 24+ days out. URGE NHTSA: Investigate if other 2024 CR-Vs affected, determine if recall needed, investigate Honda policy refusing repair until catastrophic failure.

Dec 2025 VISIBILITY/WIPER The driver's side wiper doesn't completely clean/swipe the entire windshield and seems to stop short. The only time it completely swipes the windshield is if the windshield is completely wet and constant rain is falling. Otherwise, it stops short when misting and leaves streaks, affecting the driver's complete view of the road. Also, the windshield wiper fluid system seems to waste a lot of the fluid, and empties quickly. Not sure if it's a design flaw.
