Six problems related to tire have been reported for the 1999 Honda CR-V. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Tread separation on bridgeston dueler h/t 684 while traveling on a highway at 55 mph, left front tire separated from tread and caused extensive damage to bumper, fender, head light.
On March 3, 2006, I was traveling the posted speed limit on I-95 in martin county, florida in our 1999 Honda crv. Approximately 1-2 miles before the st. Lucie blvd. Exit, I noticed a very slight tremor or vibration? in the steering column. The tremor very gradually increased. About 1-2 miles past the st. Lucie west blvd. Entrance ramp, there was a loud bang and I saw large pieces of tire debris in the air near the rear of our vehicle. Several vehicles swerved sharply to avoid our vehicle and the tire debris. I pulled onto the shoulder and upon examination found the right rear tire (facing forward) had completely lost all of its tread. The tire was still inflated so I was able to drive to a tire dealership on st. Lucie blvd. And purchase a new tire, however there was approximately $1,200 in damage to the crv. The tire had approximately 12,000 miles of use on it. The tires have always been maintained at the tire pressure recommended in the crv owner's manual and I checked the pressure immediately prior to this trip. Our local Honda technical service manager, the tire technician in port st. Lucie and a local firestone/bridgestone tire technician all agreed upon examination of the tire and the damage to our vehicle that the tire tread separation was in all probability due to the subject tire being defective. At bridgestone/firestone's request, I returned the damaged tire to them for testing and requested reimbursement for damage to my crv. They are claiming that I was at fault for their defective tire and that the tire had been "over or under deflated" for a period of time. Despite repeated requests, they have failed to return the subject tire to me.
Honda crv 1999, started shaking, driver lost control , left roadway and flipped twice. The police report stated the 2 passenger tires seemed to be deflated. The accident is being investigated as a possible tire defect.
The front passenger side tire came off the rim at 55 mph. Vehicle proceeded to strike a concrete barrier, veered left, and struck another vehicle. Consumers stated the tire seemed to be intact. However, the vehicle was totaled. The tire was purchased in July 2004.
Honda's recmded psi is much lower than listed on side wall of bridgetstone tire. Is this a concern just like the explorer tires?.
Major issues: extreme vibration in front suspension when starting out from a stop; even with automatic transmission the car rolls backward on the slightest incline when foot is taken off the brake pedal; the tires are very slippery on wet surfaces causing the car to slide and skid.
