2 Vehicle Speed Control 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.

3 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 06/09/2016

On June 9 2016 after making a routine left turn from a full stop my 2010 Honda crv kept accelerating uncontrollably. There was nothing on the accelerator pedal except my right foot which I immediately released; however, the car kept accelerating with nothing on the accelerator pedal. I used the full force of my body to apply brake pressure, but this would not stop the car; it merely slowed it down somewhat but the car was still accelerating. I had to maintain and increase this constant full body force exertion on the brake pedal as the car kept accelerating. After about 45 seconds I immediately threw the transmission into neutral whereupon the rpms surged way past 7000 (once again there was no pressure on the accelerator pedal and nothing was touching it) & past the corresponding red line on the tachometer. After approximately another 15 seconds I threw it back into drive with the full force of my body still on the break pedal and no pressure on the accelerator pedal and I managed to maneuver and turn hard the vehicle into a vacant driveway whereupon I shut off the engine. Thereafter, the engine area smoked for about 30 seconds. I waited approximately 5 minutes and carefully started the car again, backed out of the driveway and drove slowly down the nearby road to see if it was going to occur again. It did not. I drove a the car home a few miles away, did not use it again that day and the very next day (June 10, 2016) I went to the Honda dealer. The dealer was unable to find any fault codes or anything mechanically wrong. They claimed the accelerator was okay, there were no codes in the system and the brake over ride was working (which it was not as I previously stated because I had to put the full force of my body on the brake pedal to merely even slow it down somewhat but the car was still moving uncontrollably) and they could not duplicate the problem.

9 Vehicle Speed Control problem

10 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 03/06/2010

The 2010 Cr-v has very sluggish acceleration from low speed and from a dead stop. We have a driveway that slopes down, and we have to floor the gas pedal to go up the drive way and even then it goes at a snail's pace. It is difficult to turn into traffic with out having to floor the gas pedal and even then, it can still be inconsistently sluggish (you never know how fast you start going or if you will start going). We have been in a number of near miss situations before we realized that since we can't judge whether the car will actually respond to the gas pedal, there can't be any cross traffic if we are going to pull out. I have contacted the dealer who acknowledges that there is a problem and that one of their service engineers has the Cr-v and found the same thing, however, nothing is being done to mitigate the problem. Is going to take traffic accidents and deaths before Honda does something about this issue?.
