Nhtsa recall number: 12v-136 / service bulletin 12-023 - - the low beam headlights may become inoperative, reducing driver visibility and increasing the risk of a crash. The problem happens when parked or driving, city or highway travel.

I have gone through 3 separate right low beam headlights in the past three years, got the recall notice for a short in the headlight system, had it fixed, and yet the right headlight keeps going out, even though the bulb is not burned out. Dealer has no idea what is wrong, and believes it to be a fuse issue. This car is absolutely falling apart.

Update to July/2013 complaint regarding srs light coming on permanently. 9/11/13 srs light came on permanently again. Dtc 15-2 code. The Honda dealer replaced the srs control unit on 10/1/13. Mileage 114,126. I have the old srs control unit in my possession. 10/21/13 srs light come on permanently again. 11/4/13 Honda dealer reset the srs light. Dtc codes were different than the dtc 15-2. Mileage 114,925. No charge by dealer. 11/24/13 srs light came on permanently again. Honda dealer diagnosed problem as a short in one of the wiring harnesses triggering the dtc 15-2 code. Dealer reset the srs light. No charge for 4 hours of work. Dealer would not give me any paperwork on service visit. Mileage approximately 115,437 at time of visit. The dealer tech suggested I clear the code with a code reader until it would no longer clear rather than blindly replacing at this time the 4 wiring harnesses to locate the short. The consumer also stated the head lights burned out prematurely, and he had to replace them several times. Updated 01/29/14.

I took my 2004 Cr-v to Honda dealer for low beam headlight wiring to be replaced under recall. I was told they did not have part and will call when they get it.

I was going to drive to work this morning at 6:30am and my headlights would not turn on. My high beams worked fine but my normal lights did not. I had noticed a burning odor a few days prior through my vents. I took the car to my mechanic this morning and the headlight problem was due to an electrical malfunction and the wires had been melted that are associated with the headlights. Thankfully I had not been driving at night time when this problem occurred. I had to get a kit to replace the wiring. This ended up being an expensive repair.

I have replaced the headlight bulbs four times in the last year and a half in my 2004 Honda crv. The first three times I replaced them myself.

The dealership proclaimed everything was fine and replaced the headlight bulbs. So far they have lasted six months. I will be surprised if they last another month.
