Honda crv was purchased in new york in 2014 and has been registered in texas since 2023. The car has approximately 76600 miles (substantially lower than 132,000 miles average mileage). According to team gillman Honda dealership. The car has undergone severe rusting leading to coolant leak. I was asked to replace the radiator, hoses, welding of convertor and exhaust pipes. The bill exceeds 5000 usd/- (according to the dealer). Rooster car care has quoted a 6000 usd/- for similar fixes. So far, I have already spent 550 usd/- and the repairs have failed Honda did issue a recall for 564,000 Honda crv's made between 2007-2011 driven in salt belt states. This information is publicly available.
My 2014 crv has 83,131 miles and I am a careful driver and like to keep my vehicle in top shape. The service done was replaced outer tie rod ends that were cracked and I could have lost control , replaced front lower control arms, replaced front struts, replaced rear sway bar bushings, reseal coolant passage housing , head gaskets, my vehicle could have quit in traffic. The top of my crv has paint faded and gone to a white powder look. There are things that a car with low miles driven carefully and taken very good car of should not be happening. There should be recalls because there are issues with timing chains and fuel system. I am scared to drive it anymore. I won't stay loyal to Honda now and I am very disappointed that they know these issues and haven't attempted to fix them.
I was driving with my family home and my vehicle began to move from side to side in a very violent manner. When I stopped and checked my vehicle I saw that the frame where the rear suspension arm is held was completely rusted and broken, the rear tire was about to completely detach from the vehicle and luckily I was able to stop without harming the health of my son and wife, after the incident I investigated and realized that it is a fairly common problem in multiple Honda crv models of various years and so far no mechanic shop has wanted to repair my vehicle because they say that it is a major and very expensive repair, no warning lights came on before this happened and no one has wanted to inspect the vehicle, neither the dealer nor the insurance company, as they say this is not their problem but mine.
My tailgate does not open in cold weather. It was been serviced by Honda several times. They said they fixed it and it still does not work so I cannot use my trunk at all in the winter. I have a disability and need to use my trunk for groceries and medical equipment. Now Honda says it is out of warranty and wants to charge me for something they never actually fixed (garden state Honda). Please recall and permanently fix this, many people have the same issue.
The paint is suddenly peeling off the car in large pieces. This is occurring above the rear window. The paint is white and I've found numerous complaints of others experiencing the same issue with the Honda white paint. Honda states they will not cover this as it is no longer under warranty and there are no active recalls on this vehicle. When I asked if this was covered for the 2013 Honda crv they would not answer but suggested I could 'submit a claim to the NHTSA to have my vehicle added'. This is the first Honda I've ever owned and have never seen this happen. Honda needs to be held responsible for this repair. No car that is garage kept should have the paint peeling off it. Please advise next steps.
Paint defects - paint peeling on the tailgate lift.
Sunroof exploded while driving on a highway. Glass everywhere.
The sunroof has rust along the paneling area that I can see. Not sure when the rust developed, I'm sure while stationary and in motion.
Driving the interstate I-35w on Saturday June 13, 2020 in minneapolis, mn we heard a loud bang, sounded like a rock hit the car. Being close to home we pulled into the driveway but did not see any visible damage on the sides of the car nor underneath. Two days later opening the ceiling door to the sunroof to find out that the glass had a big hole in it. We were not near an over pass. We were in a construction zone but no where close to any construction vehicles. Not sure that construction was occurring at the time. All we can think of is either a rock fell from the sky or the class imploded under the heat of that day.
On 5/27/2020 at 11:20 pm my 2014 Honda crv was parked in front of my home and suddenly combusted. First smoke appeared on the driver side then flames. It was last driven around 9:45pm that evening without issue. The vehicle has no history of physical or mechanical malfunction. The incident set off my ring bell camera since it motion sensitive (will provide footage if requested).
I have a customer that has a 2014 Honda crv (VIN provided) and 2 years ago we replaced the rear hatch outside handle. It would not open in cold weather. It failed again and we replaced it again (no charge to the customer as it was the same problem as before). Honda only warranties their parts for 12 months. This is a know problem which is fixed with a new outside handle. It seems to me this is a safety concern as there in no way to get into the rear cargo area from the outside without this outside handle working. Honda has refused any to help in any way.
When the outside temperature is below freezing, the rear hatch will not open. The latch mechanism has been replaced under warranty, and the problem persists. Many others have reported this problem, with multiple latch replacements having not solved it. It is a design defect. If one were in a collision and the doors were jammed, people could not be removed through the hatch. If one had a flat tire beside the road, the spare could not be accessed. If medication were needed, it could not be retrieved promptly. The date mentioned below is only one of the many times this has happened when we have visited cold weather areas. It happens every day when the temperature is below freezing.
The sunroof shattered while driving on the tollway. This was preceded by a loud sound above my head. There was no evidence of object impact from the vehicles in front of me. I have a dash camera and showed no abnormal activity or objects flying towards the car. There was no damage anywhere else but the sunroof. Luckily the shade was closed or I would've been showered with broken glass.
The trunk latch sticks and causes you to be unable to open your trunk. Over the past couple months the latch started to stick which I chalked up to the cold weather causing it to stick but now it doesn't open at all.
My wife was driving to work at 65 mph on the highway, 8 pm, temperature approx. 75f in milpitas, CA. The sun roof was completely closed and the inside sliding cover was closed(thank goodness) when it suddenly shattered. She did not see any object impact it. No overpasses, light traffic. On closer inspection the next morning, I observed the remaining large pieces were flared outward, as if it had exploded. ( please find photos) I have since become aware that these types of failures are becoming much more frequent. (repair receipt also attached).
Air is getting into the passenger side probably through defective window seal. May be door glass separation from regulator. Has been this way for three years. Honda won't deal with it.
I was parking in a parking space behind a parked car in front of my car. I applied the brakes, and my car lunged forward with a tremendous acceleration and hit the parked car in front of me. At least, almost $5,000 in damage was done.
The contact owns a 2014 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated while parked and attempting to open the rear lift gate, the lift gate failed to open. The contact stated while depressing the button on the rear hatch handle in cold weather, the lift gate failed to open. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure as they were attempting diagnose the failure in a warm shop. The contact stated that the rear lift gate electrical mechanism in handle was replaced; however, the failure recurred in cold weather. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the lift gate electrical mechanism a second time. The contact stated that the failure persisted in cold weather. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was unknown.
Rear door latch won't open in cold weather. This started when the car was just 2 years old. Now 3 1/2 and needs replacement.

I entered a parking lot to take my grandgirls to a wildlife refuge exhibit. Drove down driveway, turned left off of driveway to park car facing west which would be facing another car facing east. Turn was immediate, so brakes were applied. Car did not slow down or stop . . . Rather, it accelerated with a lurch! I was laying on the brakes; they did not engage until frontal contact pushed facing car out of my way, and I was able to throw car into park. No action when engaging emergency brakes. Of course, documented as an "at-fault" accident by my insurance company. (may I personally mention that I have been driving 48 years and have never had an "at-fault" accident - haven't even hit a garbage can!) returned car to Honda dealership to check out braking/acceleration. The response from the service representative was, (and I directly quote), "we couldn't find a problem, but, when you experience this problem again, please have it towed to our dealership!" I have owned 14 subsequent Hondas, but will never own another! that crv took its own free will as I tried my best to control it - nothing doing!.
9 am April 16 police knocked on door several Hondas in the parking lot had been broken into nd driver airbag stolen. Car did not start had to be towed to southhonda for repairs. I have a $500 deductible and I want Honda to reimburse me plus fix the faulty alarm system. I am retired $500 is lot for something I did not do thank you.
Tl- the contact owns a 2014 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 60 mph, a loud popping noise suddenly came from the roof area of the vehicle. The driver discovered that the glass sun roof had exploded from the inside outward. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but no further information was available. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 13,000. The VIN was not available. Djr.
Shattered glass sunroof , occurred while driving. Shade guard prevented glass from entering car. No foreign object found that could have caused the sunroof to shatter.
My Honda crv was broken into while on vacation in florida. I was only about 300 feet away from the car but was not notified by the alarm. I came back to see glass all over the floor, my personal belongings gone from the car. As a previous owner of a newly purchased Honda odyssey, I felt that the car had alarm as the key has remote lock and and unlock functions and the car even sounded a familiar arming sound when remotely locked. When I went into a dealer in florida to inquire why the alarm did not work, they told me that the car had passive alarm, which means that the alarm should sound if the glass is broken. Upon returning to new york, I went to the dealer where I purchased the car and they told me the car has no alarm, and that the familiar sound is just to indicate to me that all four doors are locked! at no time during the sales transaction was I told that the car has no alarm or that I needed to purchase an alarm.
