Battery drains and car will not start. Car gives no warning of drain. New larger battery does not solve problem. Problem repeats on 6 week cycle.
About six months after I bought the car, the car would not start. During this time, the car would make a cranking sound but would not catch. It took several tries of me pushing the start button for the car to start. That day I brought it to Honda and Honda told me it was a bad battery so they replaced it. Three months later the same issue happened except this time the car would not start. I had the car towed to Honda and they said it was a bad battery and replaced it. This continues to happen every three-six months however Honda is no longer replacing the battery as they cannot duplicate the issue. There are no lights being left on in my car. I do not have an alarm system. The car will be parked over night and in the morning or early afternoon it will not start or take several tries of me pushing the start button for it to start. It will make a cranking sound when it tries to start but will not catch or takes several tries. Honda has acknowledged there is an issue with the car starting for the 2015 crv model but stated they do not know how to fix it.
Battery discharges frequently (car will not start) beginning when less than three years old, new battery same problem. Happens randomly. Dealer could not find problem (even though it happened once in their shop). Not related to frequent short trips (dealer suggestion) as we tracked occurrence with different trip lengths with same unpredictable results. Keeping battery on charger daily seems to help, but must be done daily or else problem reoccurs. Problem happens after shutting vehicle off and restarting -- can be after short stop (shopping) or overnight (in garage). Clearly there is a defect -- short?; relay? have heard of others with similar problem same make and model but different years. Honda dealer has been no help and now vehicle is off warranty.
SUV would not start. Vehicle parked in parking lot. Outside temperature 27f. Battery checked ok. Dash board lights came on but engine would not start. Attempted 6-7 times. Dash board lights just flickered with no response from engine. Turned off ignition for 25-30 minutes and engine started with another attempt. Vehicle driven to local Honda dealership.
