We responded to a safety recall on our 2002 Honda crv in 2013 to replace the combination light switch which might cause a fire or the lights to go out unexpectedly. Repairs were completed 30 oct 2013. In March 2017 the issues identified in the recall were exactly what happened. The switch started smoking and the lights went out. I notified the closest dealership to schedule the repairs for the items to be replaced. The dealer told me that yes this is the item covered by the recall but would not be covered and I would have to pay. This made no sense to me but as I had to drive 80 miles to return home I went ahead and paid. I contacted Honda and explained the problem. They responded that the parts they had previously installed were now out of warranty and they would not cover the costs. It seems that even if replacement parts are used and the safety issue still happens as identified in the safety recall, they should cover the repair costs. They felt otherwise.

The driver's side door actuator failed. I have to open the driver's door with a key and the remote doesn't work on the driver's side. The other doors lock with the remote but only after the driver's side door is locked by key. This has also affected the interior lights which don't light when the door is open.
Low beams quit working. High beams continue to work. By searching online seems like quite a problem with the 2002 model.
I have been having trouble with my low beam head lighting system this morning I have no low beam lights at all. In reviewing Honda forums there is a lot of problems with the low beam lights and Honda has recalled the civic's for this problem. I took my vehicle to darling's Honda and the diagnosis is the switch and connector in the steering column has melted and this is the same system that is used in the civic but the Cr-v's were not recalled and there is no plan on having that done. My only recourse is to pay out of pocket for Honda's mistake. I would like to have Honda reimburse me for my expense but darling's is not at liberty to do that I use my Cr-v to deliver newspapers at 1 am and need to replace this on my own.
Both low beam head lights went off intermittently . And returned on within a short time later . This continued over a dozen times on each of two occasions.
The contact owns a 2002 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that the low beams failed, forcing the contact to drive with the high beams. The head lights were replaced by a private mechanic. The manufacturer was contacted, but the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 182,000 and the current mileage was 182,100.
Low beams on 2002 Honda went out, high beams work. Checked bulbs etc, crv forums state multiple people have this issue relating to connecter melting under steering column.
On 8/1/2011, while driving our 2002 Honda crv, I noticed a strange smell. When darkness fell, I realized that the low beams on my vehicle were not working, through the high beams and every other light on the vehicle worked. This has happened twice before - once in November of 2009, and once in March of 2010. When it happened previously, I first checked the bulbs and fuses. They were all fine. I then researched the issue on the internet, and looked into a wiring harness behind the steering wheel. I found a wiring harness that contained some corrosion between connectors that had melted somewhat. I scraped off the corrosion and applied some dielectric to inhibit future corrosion, and the lights came back on. I spoke with the service attendants at my local Honda dealership (with pictures that I took of the offending harness), and after checking their computers, they told me that there was nothing on record regarding the issue. I have not yet made the (obviously temporary) repair for the most recent occurrence of this issue. I'm thinking that I may take it to the dealership service to see if they can come up with a more permanent solution.
Honda 2002 crv- low beams went out simultaneously on two separate occasions. Replaced both bulbs the first time. One month later, now, both low beams went out simultaneously again. Honda dealer has never heard of the problem with wiring harness and requires $100 to simply diagnose the problem.
The contact owns a 2002 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated while driving at night the low beams would shut off. The driver inspected the vehicle and noticed that both bulbs were fine because the high beams were good and so were the relays. The vehicle was not inspected by a dealer nor was it repaired. The failure and current mileage was approximately 176,000.
