I purchased a used 2008 Honda crv on 07/19/2017. About a week ago the rear driver side door lock was unlocking by itself. While driving on city streets and fluctuating between 5 to 20mph the door locks would lock and unlock until you get to highway speed. The rear driver door would stay unlocked. I went to a Honda dealer to have it looked at and they said the actuator was bad and the rear passenger side door lock actuator was beginning to fail due a load noise when activated. They replaced both actuators at a cost of $602. 25. I have service records of the vehicle from the past owner and the past owner had the driver side front actuator replaced and the rear actuator was looked at but not replaced. I read the class action law suit and it says, "for all settlement class vehicles, Honda will provide a countermeasure replacement free of charge, if that lock door actuator has not already been replaced with the countermeasure replacement part as provided in the Honda case 2:13-cv-00381-fsh-jbc document 56-1 filed 09/24/14 page 14 of 72 pageid: 694 11 countermeasure update. In order to receive a countermeasure replacement, a settlement class member must bring the settlement class vehicle to an authorized Honda dealer. Owners and lessees of settlement class vehicles will be entitled to a countermeasure replacement regardless of whether they exclude themselves from the settlement. " countermeasure means working or not working. The previous owner had the crv service before the extended warranty ended and the actuators did not get replaced. I contacted Honda and they are willing to give me a $100. 00 voucher to be used at any Honda dealership. In conclusion I feel this is a safety issue and when the previous owner had this car serviced at a Honda dealer the power lock actuators should have been changed. I am looking for compensation. Thank you,.
Issue with door locks, Honda replaced one door lock in August 2017, we had issue with passenger door lock not locking, after Honda replaced the drivers door lock, now the passengers door will stay locked even after you have removed the key, this is a safety issue if in a panic you could not exit the car from the passengers side. I was told by my local Honda dealer that this was a expired warranty issue and that Honda would not fix it without charging for it, this is an ongoing issue, this should be a recall issue before someone gets hurt or worst!.
Electric door lock system recall: our 2008 Honda crv literally locked us out. We were yard saling in a nearby neighborhood. We parked on the street, and locked the vehicle. Upon returning to the vehicle, it would not unlock with the fob. I tried it several times with faint clicking sounds. The key also failed to unlock the drivers door. Our cell phone and keys to the house were in the locked vehicle . It was a Saturday afternoon and we were locked out of our vehicle and stranded. We were fortunate in that our neighbor and a friend were yard saling in the same area and gave us a ride home and we were able to gain entrance to our house via an open window. We were also able to get a hold of the mechanic(not the dealership!!) the mechanic fixed one failed door actuator and the other door actuators were also probably involved{??). He suggested going to the dealership for a diagnostic. The diagnostic revealed a total of three actuators gone bad!!! the dealership would be glad to "fix" the problem for $350 per actuator --- $270 for parts and $780 for labor. . It turns out the parts are predominantly plastic and appear made not to last. The picture could have been a lot different. The day before we were using the same vehicle 45 to 60 minutes from home and no nearby contacts. We would have been still stranded and even more stressed!!! we bought our Honda crv because Honda supposedly had a better than average service record , quality of parts, and safety record.

Door actuator recall. I had problems with my driver side door and it was replaced in March 2015, I had to have the passenger side door actuator replaced in October 2015, now the back doors and read door will not open and the actuator is the problem. Honda has stated they are not responsible since the recall has ended. The dealership will repair but I will be responsible for the bill which is significant. I feel that I have been duped by Honda. If they have a recall on a part then all defective parts from that supplier should be replaced. This is the same with the air bags. I just got the driver side replaced and now they told e I need the passenger side replaced. Please look into this. It is an unfair practice and they should replace all defective parts at one time on a recall instead piecing it out until their time frame ends.

I am constantly replacing, tail lights, brake lights, third brake lights and reverse lights! all the locks whine when I put my vehicle in drive. They said that it would cost me $1200. 00 to replace them all ! I do not believe that they all need replacing! my lamp light is out and they said it would cost $180. 00 to fix that! I have had to have my back hatch repainted, and now above my windshield and grill need to be repainted! whats going to need repainting next?! I can not afford to have my crv repainted, and it is embarrassing! I hand wash my crv with special cloths! if Honda wants me continue buying their vehicles, they had better do something about this!!! I only take my Honda to the Honda vehicle for all oil changes, tire rotation, brakes, all fluid changes, alignments, tires, light bulb replacement (often). You name it, my crv goes to them for maintenance!.

Rear driver-side door unlocks by itself immediately after being locked and will not stay in the locked position. Honda acknowledged that these door lock actuators were defective and issued a "product update" on the driver's door and extended the warranty 3 additional years on all other doors. The extended warranty has now expired and Honda will no longer replace defective locks on any doors other than the driver's door. All door locks have the same problem, but they don't all fail at the same time or within the extended warranty period. Called Honda and was told "there is nothing we can do for you. ".
In 2008 Honda Cr-v, I have noticed since July 2016, that passenger door locks (front and rear) automatically unlock when vehicle is in motion. Also, when vehicle is parked, the driver is unable to lock the vehicle using key and no manual lock option is available. Discussed this proble m with Honda dealer a few times and I was informed that there is no recall for passenger side door lock actuator problem. I had received a letter from american Honda motor CO. , inc. In beginning of 2015, and made an appointment with Honda dealer and at that time only driver side door lock was covered (not other three door locks). Dealer is stating that I must pay for diagonisis and repairs. Item 3 of letter I received from Honda in 2015 did not specifically states: "if a door lock actuator on your Cr-v malfunctions, you may be eligible to receive door lock actuator repairs under an extended warrenty without charge at an authorized Honda dealer. . . " this is a serious safety concern since my ability to lock the car at all times (when required) is compromised due to malfunctioning parts installed in 2008 Honda Cr-v.

Tl the contact owns a 2008 Honda Cr-v. In may of 2016, the vehicle doors locked without warning. The contact had to reach their hand through the passenger side window and open the door from the outside. Once they exited the vehicle, the contact could not get the doors to unlock even with the key fob. The contact had to call roadside assistance to help unlock the doors. The vehicle was taken to Honda of kirkland (12420 ne 85th st, kirkland, wa 98033) where they replaced the driver side door lock actuator per service bulletin number: 14-083. A year and a half later, the same failure occurred on the passenger side. The contact paid to have the passenger side door lock actuator replaced.

The passenger door lock actuator is malfunctioning. The door makes a loud sound as it cycles between lock and unlock, every time the doors are locked or unlocked. Sometimes it will not lock. Sometimes it will lock. Sometimes it is hard to unlock. It makes awful noises every time I lock the doors. The driver's door was doing the same. Honda corrected the problem in the driver's side door recently for free while the driver's side takata airbag inflator was replaced. However, Honda refuses to cover the cost of the malfunctioning passenger side lock actuator which also presents a hazard if all locks do not unlock easily during an emergency. Honda issued a technical service bulletin in 2015 extending the warranty to cover these. But, there was no problem with the passenger locks at the time so no repairs was needed. This is a known issue for the Honda Cr-v. If they cover replacement for one, they should cover replacement for the other for safety.
Power door lock actuator not working. It does not lock at all.
I had issues with the doorlock actuator on drivers side. I took it to dealer and they took care of it and assured me they were fixed once and for all. I have noticed that when I hit the lock for all the doors, the rear drivers side does not lock. Today, I was at the gas pump. Turned off my car, put it in park and the locks would not open. I had to manually open my driver side door.
Both front door actuators were recalled and I had fixed. The back doors aren't recalled, however my rear left actuator is not functioning. I feel that since the front was recalled and clearly malfunctioning in my car that the back should have also been recalled.
