general problems of the 2007 Honda CR-V - part 1

Complaint: both rear doors and the front passenger door no longer lock or unlock electronically using the key fob or interior switch. The failure began gradually and worsened over time. I recently had the driver door replaced by a Honda dealer as part of the warranty but the passenger and back door were not part of the warranty and dealership has also confirmed the lock failures. This creates serious safety risks: •doors randomly unlock while driving and while parked •cannot reliably open doors in an emergency •at times, the vehicle must be left unlocked •I transport young children, making manual locking unsafe additionally, the vehicle has a persistent engine oil leak that mechanics cannot permanently fix. Oil loss between changes risks engine damage, loss of power, or fire. I request NHTSA investigate these defects and consider a recall for the failing door locks and the engine oil leak.

The passenger car door unlocks for no reason. It used to automatically lock when I start driving , now it starts to open and will not remain locked while driving, or when I lock my car door when I park. When I use the key fob the car alarm goes off and the door is still unlocked. This car has had a recall on the airbags. The light comes on once in a while. It was fixed by the Honda dealership but recently, once in a while , the light still comes on. It is concerning . The air pressure warning light will remain on even after I have had my tires checked.

I am having door lock issues with all my locks on my car. It started with my front passenger and now both rear are also having issues. When I click the unlock button on the keyfob they unlock then lock again. Same with the unlock button on the drivers door. When I'm driving (accelerating), the drivers door will click as if it is trying to lock even though it already is.

Passenger door lock actuators are not working properly on front passenger and rear doors. Doors may be unlocked from the outside or inside but will immediately lock again with 1-2 seconds. This is a major safety issue in the event of an emergency as one may be trapped in the car or not be able to get to a person in the car even once the doors are 'unlocked' they will only remain unlocked for 1-2 seconds. I do not feel safe nor do I feel safe having my wife or kids in the car as a result of this issue.

Passenger door locks sticking and now movin down to both rear passenger and trunk latches aswell sometimes locking me out of my own vehicle or in sometimes.

Hello, my vehicle's door motors or actuators are not working, specifically the driver side back door and the rear baggage door. This happened as we were trying to get into the vehicle while it was raining heavily on the side of the road due to an emergency toilet brake. This of course was frustrating as we were trying to get into the car and put stuff in the car, and put us in harms way of upcoming traffic because some of us could not get in. This problem has been rampant by Honda motor company and they had a recall regarding this issue. There were no warning lights for this. We just heard a loud buzz when we tried to open the doors.

Lock actuator failed, was repaired by Honda on 9/17/2021. Failed again on 1/7/23. Unable to unlock any door with assistance of local police, aaa. Could not get towed because vehicle could not be unlocked to put into neutral. Honda customer service told me they could not help.

The passenger side door lock and unlock while driving. The passenger door does not lock.

The back passenger door makes a grinding noise, which I believe could be due to a faulty actuator. This happens when the doors automatically lock after getting gup to about 15mph.

Whenever I unlock the doors, the front passenger and rear passenger doors do not stay unlocked for more than a second. I am worried that if something happened (such as the car catching on fire), my passengers would be unable to get out of the car. I bought this car used with this problem; the owner before me also had this issue. To my knowledge, there was no prior warning to this problem occurring. Lock issues are a common occurrence with the model from 2007-2011 crvs.

My rear passenger side door lock randomly unlocks while driving and it won't lock when I park the car. Our son is 3 years old who sits in a car seat in the back. Very dangerous.

I had my door lock actuators replaced from a previous recall and now they are acting up again. The front passenger door lock in unlocking and locking whenever I come to a stop and start driving again.

Drivers back door lock keeps locking the whole car or sometimes unlocks . I told the car dealership were I purchased car . They won't fix it because they said I bought as is. So I called the Honda store in boardman OH and they told me no recalls on my problem.

When I’m driving my 2007 Honda crv locks , lock and unlock . At times my passenger lock does not lock even after hitting key fob to lock it.

Car never starts! it needs to be jump-started every single time.

Door locks lock and unlock while driving. Every time I stop and start driving again. . It also will not chirp when locking doors remotely.

Door locks won't lock on all doors, and while driving continues to try and lock the doors.

Door actuators have failed on both the passenger front and right rear. They lock almost immediately after unlocking. There is a high risk the passengers may not be able to exit in an emergency and rescue could be delayed. I have owned this car since bought new in September 2006. This problem began in 2020 during the pandemic so I have not gone to a dealer. I recently found information about recall 12v338000 in 2015 but I was never notified of that recall (since expired). I have since moved to a new address and the vehicle remains registered to me at my new address. Online research tells me this is a known problem and owners are charged $300-800 for repairs - often more than once!.

My Honda crv 2007 steering wheel and ignition locked on me. When I tried to start my car the key went into the ignition but it didn't turn. The steering wheel were locked. I had to tow my car to the Honda dealer. On Monday morning, I contacted the Honda dealer and was told that the problem was the ignition lock assembly. Honda kept my vertical for 2 days. They had to order a part to replace the ignition. When I asked has this happened to any other Honda crv, mr. Dylan frizzell said 1 other Honda crv that he knew of at this time. I should not be obligated t0 pay $742. 00. My Honda crv 2007 had the airbags and doors recalled causing me potential death. Please give me a written response. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

I have a short in the electrical system when I stop and start the door locks unlocked and locks. Also my radio requires to enter a code when I shut it off, after I turn off the key. It works when I don't shut it off after I turn the key off.

The doors locks keep un locking and the front end keeps radleing and the stering is real tiet.

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 mph. The door ajar warning displayed on the instrument panel, alerting that the front driver side door was open. The contact slowed down and merged on to the shoulder, opened and close the door, but the warning still. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for a diagnosis. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 221,044. Bp.

Faulty door lock on front passenger side.

Honda refuses to replace recalled door lock actuators. Driver's side door lock and passenger rear locks will not stay open, sealing occupants in the car unless the key fob is repeatedly actuated. Honda says recall has expired. Honda replaced one actuator with another that also failed and will not replace it.

We were driving and stopped the car outside a restaurant. When I tried to open the car door it would not unlock using the door handle. It finally opened when the key fob was pressed several times. When we returned from the restaurant and got inside the car, the door would not lock. We tried the key fob and the door control on the drivers side panel. As we started to drive, the passenger side door lock started locking and unlocking and would not stop. Every couple of seconds the lock clicked open, clicked locked but the indicator that turns red when the door is unlocked would not fully engage. The indicator was only partially red. It was stuck in the middle and would not lock. The passenger door lock clicked on- and - off every couple of seconds when we were driving. We can't lock our car door when in motion and can't lock the car doors when stopped or parked. It is not safe.

My front passenger door and the back hatch have locked up and will not open or even unlock.

Honda drive slow all doors make noise while driving remote key change to a key tire light stay on at all time all doors locked up had to pay for a lock smith.

Defaulting locking door system. Doors keep on locking while driving or/and not locking all doors while parked. I have already replaced latch assembly once this year and now broken again. This locking while driving has been an ongoing problem for years. It's very bothersome not to be able to have all doors locked while parked.

The right rear passenger door locking mechanism unlocks itself after locking with driver's master control or key control. This allows the door to be unsecured when vehicle is moving causing safety issue. Honda sees this as warranty issue not safety issue.

Automatic locks constantly lock and unlock under speeds of 25mph (while vehicle is in motion). Passenger side lock (front door) will not unlock (when stationary and in park). Seems to be an issue with the lock actuator.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Cr-v. While the vehicle was stationary, the front passenger door actuator malfunctioned, locking the passenger inside the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 272,000.

About 4 months ago my right-side back passenger's door was making a loud noise when the car doors were trying to lock while I was driving, or when I used the car remote or lock panel on drivers side door. Come to find out that it was the actuator needs to be replaced. Now, my front-passengers door and trunk do not open, however, no loud sounds are happening except for the right-side back passenger's door. I thought I could handle the sound, but now this issue has progressed and is a huge inconvenience every time I use my car. Most recently, on 2/25/17 my daughter and I came home and parked along the street from outside of my home. I had my daughter in the vehicle strapped in her car seat, upon exiting the drivers side I closed the door and the car locked. I tried using the remote to unlock the doors that were still "functioning" (drivers side door & left-side back passengers door) which did not work! I had to use the car alarm to wake up my daughter to see if she could unbuckle herself but unfortunately, after she got out of her seat she was unsuccessful trying to open the doors they would not open from the inside either. I must have tried the remote and using the actual key in the drivers door for a good 5 minutes which felt like an eternity. This matter is a huge manufacturing issue that is still not resolved in the reported active class action lawsuit. With some help from a neighbor we managed to get the door open to get my daughter out. I'm truly disappointed with Honda as I've never had issues with Honda as I felt that Honda is exceptionally reliable. As of yesterday's fiasco involving my daughter I will be seeking out counsel from a litigator on this issue since it seems that it has not been resolved, knowing that this problem continues to persist which is a dangerous situation to have your own children locked inside. Parents worst nightmare.

> door locks malfunctioning - (actuator replacement) left rear door lock does not remain in locked position. All doors lock, except for rear door lock on driver's side, engages but slowly reverts to unlocked position, which poses security risk to life (self, children and pets) in addition to unsecured property. . . This is an ongoing issue and the second time we encountered problem, and had to replace the driver's door lock (actuator) about two (2) years ago, and suspect the the remaining door locks will soon fail as well. . . . ??.

My Honda crv's front passenger side window will not go up. It is stuck down. It first it was sluggish and now it won't work at all.

Both passenger side door locks are malfunctioning. They make a very loud noise when attempting to lock/unlock. More importantly, they will only stay unlocked for a brief moment before moving back to the locked position. Manually maneuvering the lock is next to impossible, which creates a big safety hazard of the vehicle potentially locking passengers inside with no means of opening the doors.
