1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 11/10/2025

Got this vehicle about a year and a half ago at full price from local dealership. It looks like it has been pieced together with many other Hondas. The check engine light has been on ever since. The car keeps yet no camera. Just tried to get inspected. So far charged 2500 but was given a pass on inspection only for the light to come back on. I noticed on the back of repair paperwork this car has 2 airbag recalls. I feel duped I feel like this is attempted murder. I feel scared and sad. Something must be done with used car purchases.

5 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2017

I was turning into a parking space at my office, speed < 5mph, applied the brakes to make the turn. There were construction workers at the site, speed bumps and children coming and going. I was very attentive to all these circumstances as I turned into the spot. Suddenly there was an unexpected acceleration of the car with no ability to brake the vehicle, which did not stop until it hit a brick wall that was directly in front of the car, perhaps just 8-10 feet away. When the first attempt to brake did not work, I hit the brake a second time. Still nothing. After I hit the wall, a contraction worker who saw the entire thing came over to check on me. (I did have a seatbelt on, and the airbag did not deploy. ) I felt like I was okay, but was shook up and confused. I told him what happened. He stated that he could smell the brakes, which were so hot from trying to stop the car. Substantial front end damage was incurred, and the car was towed to a body shop. Assessment there showed that there were no problems with the brake itself and there was plenty of brake fluid in the reservoir. I believe this is another incident, like others have reported, where the car accelerates as the brakes are tapped. I consider this car to be dangerous at this point, and I am waiting for the insurance company to determine if they will total it. I have not had this problem before, but have had a few times when there was a lag in the acceleration. I haven't talked to Honda yet, but I will do so this weekend.

8 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 03/25/2016

"takata recall" l waited almost 4 months for the part to come in for the airbag recall. I called numerous times to Honda corporate and the local dealer. First call was March they said by summer the part would be in. I called in July and they said now it would not be until fall that it comes in. I finally had to make a complaint with NHTSA and within a week the dealer called and said the part was in. It has been repaired. However because they required me to sign a paper saying I would keep the car parked and not drive it, my break rotors front and rear got very rusty. The car shakes and shimmies when braking now. The dealer said the rotors need resurfaced. But they wanted to charge me $420 to do that work. I feel Honda should pay for it since it is not my fault that I had to let the car sit for 4 months. The dealer said he could not do anything, but to call Honda corporate. I called one week ago and they said someone would call back. No one has called back . I need the rotors fixed now. I feel it is a safety issue that is Hondas responsibility.

10 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2015

The vehicle has been driven less than 30,000 miles (on average approximately 5,500 miles a year). It has not been subject to unusual weather conditions of any type. The brake rotors have rusted and need to be replaced. It is my understanding that this is a result of a manufacturing defect that is a common occurrence for Honda Cr-v model years 2007 - 2010. Honda made the necessary changes to correct the defect on subsequent model years. The dealership, criswell Honda in germantown, MD, charged me to resurface the rotors which did not fix the problem because of the inherent defect. The rotors have not been subject to "wear and tear" . My dicussions with the service manager have indicated that Honda is fully aware of the problem and is essentially indifferent to the defect and insists upon charging the customer for the repair. Because of the inherent brake defect it is not at all clear that the "repair" will address the problem. I have the rotor resurface invoice but there is no dispute that I was charged for a "repair" that did not fix the defect. There may be a technical memo from Honda to dealerships that references the problem. Please contact american Honda to discuss this defect. Thank you.

14 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 04/22/2013

This has happened twice. In April 2013, I was driving on an interstate. To avoid hitting a slowing car, I tapped the brake and turned the wheel slightly to move completely back into the right lane. The car accelerated exponentially, as if overdrive had been turned off or cruise control had kicked in (cruise was not on). The car sped uncontrollably first toward the right shoulder and then to the left while I turned the wheel to stay on the road. This happened half a dozen times before the car finally stopped. The second event occurred while pulling into a front end parking space at an office building. Speed was not sufficient to register on the odometer. Tapping the brake caused the car to accelerate as described previously, heading toward a brick wall about 8 feet away. I removed my foot from the brake, but the car continued to accelerate. I was able to turn the car and avoid the wall, but took out all the front plantings, a light pole and a small tree, doing almost $3,000 damage to my car plus more for the building. I immediately took the car to my local Honda service. Their response: we could not duplicate the problem. Bring it back when this happens again. For a while I have accepted this diagnosis, but another occurrence could cause serious injury to property, to me or to others. I have read of other incidents with this vehicle. I am pursuing this matter with Honda. This must be fixed!.

However, approximately 30 seconds after the disengagement, the brakes seized completely and caused the vehicle to come to an abrupt stop. (ohio traffic crash report # 10-0706-91) updated 01/14/11.

17 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2010

Service documentation has been made regarding a complainant of a metal noise dropping from the vehicle as of Nov 2010 and basically every year to follow. I did purchased the vehicle new. However, now I have just been advised it is an internal issue in the transmission and will be responsible to pay $1600. It seemed that most costly issues really began to surface after the 5 year warrantee. However it seemed that nothing is wrong, but after a third return and taking the vehicle out and reproducing the noise/problem I have complained of since my original purchase no has been "discovered". I have always done the recommended services on the vehicle at the time I have maintained its service since it has been purchased with garden state Honda. They have been polite, tried to provide a reason for the noise which were not as I described. A metal clank/drop noise is not the same as the plastic flap rubbing on the tire. I have been engaged to a mechanic and clearly know this was a poor excuse. I do have an extended coverage until April 2017. I have also been provided an excuse that my car tires are wearing unevenly as the car must not have been driven in some time (the tires appear to have that stationary mark). The car is driven daily. It may not be far distances, but that's not a reason for why wearing unevenly.
