I am a proud owner of a 2003 Honda Cr-v. I've always heard a loud noise from the rear of the vehicle when my rear windows were rolled down and didn't think much about it, until I had some body work done and the mechanic told me that my differential is bad and I needed to replace it. I decided to do some research and almost every Honda Cr-v owner I spoke to say they've encounted the noise too. I believe this was a flaw Honda know all along and refuse to disclose, even when I bought my vehicle, I was not made aware of this problem.
Car pulls to right, was somewhat corrected 18 months later, but shop overcorrected the fix and now it drifts to the left. Pulls to the right upon acceleration.
