general problems of the 2016 Honda CR-V - part 2

In less than 3 years of my 2016 Honda crv ownership, I have gone through three batteries. As such the car is very well maintained, driven about 25k miles and mostly on highways. Crv would not start and required jump start, to say needed twice in the last week itself. Luckily since I was still under Honda warranty, I did not pay for the batteries but thinking about getting less than a year on Honda 's original battery is insane. Something must be seriously wrong with this make/model of the vehicle.

On multiple occasions for the past year, this car has stalled when you press the gas pedal. You press the gas, the car "chugs," and either slows down and has to catch up to itself, or it completely shuts off. It happens pulling out of the driveway, at stop signs, and intersections. We've brought the car to the dealership multiple times, and they can't find the problem. It even stalled on their tech once, but they still couldn't fix it. They suggested replacing the battery, so we did, and nothing changed. This is incredibly dangerous, and nobody at the dealership or the corporate office did anything to address the issue. I believe this car should be recalled and off the road immediately.

Vehicle was sitting idle at a stop light, after being driven for approximately 15 minutes at speeds ranging from 25-50mph. The instrument panel flashed, then went dark, though the vehicle was still running with no other issues immediately noted. Driver pulled into a parking lot about 300' away, put the vehicle into park, and upon exiting saw fire coming from the front of the engine compartment. The fire department responded, but the vehicle was fully involved by the time they arrived on scene 7 minutes later.

Ignition started making a zapping noise upon starting. I would then have to try to start again. One day it finally didn't start at all. They stated my battery was no good after approximately 28k miles. Fast forward 7 months later and the ignition is making the same zapping noise yet again. After looking online, there are several other people having the same issue with this make and model.

Hi everyone, I had a few typo's. 1). The electoral didn't pass and american Honda wouldn't help. Thanks.

On 02/12/2016 I was pulling out of my garage and everything was fine at that moment, them I went to turn my 2016 crv it was only going about 1 1/2 miles per hour, but the crv would not stop, the car only had 3,924 mile too. So I hit my neighbors garage door and side of her home and the car stop after it went over her foundation of her home. I looked down and saw that I was pressing as hard as I could on the brake but it didn't work. This all took about 20 seconds, to fast. I had the brakes check which mechanically pass all test 100%. But on the electoral did pass. 2 code came up. 1). U300616 - power source failure for ecu (low voltage) for the anti-lock brake and the same code for tire pressure. So it not the mechanic of the crv it's the ecu box the box which everything goes thru. So it's electrical not mechanical. And you never know when it will happen again. The 2016 crv should be recalled on the ecu box. I never will drive the crv again. You could really kill someone. The national highway traffic safety administration should look deep into this and have a recall. I did contact american Honda corporation and they did research it, but I was going on that it was mechanical not electrical. American Honda would help. Something needs to be done, so I hope the NHTSA looks into this.

Electronic trunk system/hatch back door switch does not operate in cold conditions . Honda dealer is required to open hatch back to gain entry. There is no way for a consumer to manually open hatch back door. Expensive repair of $300. 00+. Part number 74810-t0a-a02 .

Rear trunk / hatch will not open when temperatures are below freezing. Has occurred many times. Dealer duplicated the issue and replaced the switch stating that they verified communication was lost to the switch when cold. The issue still occurs even after replacement, but dealer states all they can do is replace again because no recall has been issued by Honda.

When temperatures get cold, the button to open the rear hatch will not work. This causes the owner to not be able to access the trunk.

Lock-out with key fob inside the car, car was not running, parked at work. The car basically 'locked' me out when I put my purse and keys into the car, opened the hood so I could fill the wiper fluid reservoir , closed the door to get wiper fluid out of the back and the car locked the doors. According to the locksmith that opened my car, this is a well known problem - and not just with Honda cars. Thank goodness I was still at work and in a safe location.

Electric power steering completely broken, car brought brand new, only 6k miles - owned 6 months. Car completely undrivable.

Dashboard low tire pressure lights up for no reason, service dept. . Writer at barber Honda in bakersfield, CA told me that's it's a major problem with many other Honda models and have told the Honda headquarters but they ignore it and don't do anything about this problem.
