2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/12/2025

Continuous illumination of all lights on the dash. We have to reset the battery to clear the codes and it will do it again but the timing differs. Now, I am getting the “airbag srs system problem” that pops up and then goes away when the vehicle is restarted. This has been going on for over a year. We have replaced the alternator and continue to try and find the actual malfunction as a code reader just lists all things being illuminated. We are not the first, not the only, and definitely not the last crv owners with this issue. Fix this!!!! I’m highly disappointed in Honda.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 04/28/2025

The driver seatbelt failed to lock when rear end collision occurred and drivers face slammed into steering wheel. The steering wheel airbag failed to deploy when the car rear ended the vehicle in front of them. Drivers safety was jeopardized and now has severe concussion. Repair center stated seatbelt showed zero signs of locking and air bag should’ve deployed. Vehicle was inspected by insurance and was deemed a complete loss. No warning lights sounds or messages went off when vehicle was rear ended and front end collision.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/09/2024

*this car was parked in the driveway 2 days without being driven before the following incident* also- there are recalls for this make and model. Honda always said that the recalls do not include my car. Recalls should be expanded to include mine since the car is un drivable at the Honda service center. What happened: alarm went off on car in driveway. Horn constantly going off. Smoke came out around steering wheel and inside the vehicle filled with smoke. All lights came on dash. Gears were locked up and had to manually put in neutral to get on tow truck. Car is at Honda dealership in cumming GA. Said I needed steering wheel cable, srs unit, safety restraints unit, & brake boosters. They put parts on. Did same thing to them as it did in my driveway. Horn & smoke & all!! now they say it needs steering wheel & the harness is on back order until August 28! and that my VIN # is not on the recall but I believe it should be. This car could have caused a fire and was parked beside my house. My family and I were at risk and almost called police and fire department. Newborn baby, & other family members inside the home. Family members disconnected the battery because horn was so loud. All these repairs are headed towards $9000 & this is insane. This is my only vehicle. I must have transportation!.

5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/30/2024

The passenger side seat weight sensor assembly failed. It is available for inspection. The vehicle has been inspected and repaired by a certified Honda dealer. The airbag light stayed on beginning in December 2023. The srs warning light came on in March 2024. This defect was subject to a recall of crv’s manufactured from 2020 to 2022. We believe the 2019 vehicles were affected also and should have been part of the recall. Honda has recognized this problem and has reimbursed us $800 of the $1758. 68 of the repair bill.

Failure Date: 07/26/2019

I received a safety recall letter for the VIN of my 2019 Honda Cr-v. The letter clearly informed me to call any authorized Honda dealer to make an appointment to have the cable reel and cable reel sub-harness replaced and a protective cover on the steering wheel core installed for free. I called yonkers Honda service center and I was told they don't have the required parts to fix the recall issue. After I talked to the dealer, I decided to call american Honda motor CO. I spoke to a customer service representative named samantha, who responded very unprofessionally and impatiently, told me to call each and every one of all Honda dealers to find out who has the parts for the fix. I ended the call with samantha. I called again and spoke to another service rep. I was told that Honda has not yet shipped the required parts to any of Honda dealers and it will not happen until sometime in October 2019. I was misinformed by the letter to call Honda dealers now when the dealers don't even have the parts. Prompt action should be taken before any serious and unpredictable injuries/death due to the defects.

32 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/11/2019

Recall 19v-383 after many months of research, decided to purchase 2019 Honda crv for our 16 year old son in April. Received notification on July 11, 2019 that there is a recall that could cause �uncommand deployment of driver's airbag. � this recall was first issued in may 2019, however Honda did not notify owners until mid July. Since this is a serious recall, I called several Honda dealers in charlotte right away to schedule the repair. I was told by every single one that they do not have the parts in stock for current customer repairs and will not receive them until Aug/sept. I was then told that the parts that they are receiving weekly are only for current inventory on the lot that they are trying to sell. What?! this does not make any sense! I was then told that the service department did not have a lot of info about this recall, I would have to call corporate. Called Honda corporate and was assigned a claim number and was told I would be receiving a call in 24 hours. . . . 4 days later and still no call. This needs to be addressed now, I do not want to put my 16 year old son (or anyone for that matter) behind the wheel of a car where the driver airbag could randomly deploy at any moment. Pretty disappointed in the lack of concern Honda is showing for their current customers.

Srs system defect. Please find, attached, a letter entitled "important safety recall". I received this in early July from the dealer. When I called my Honda dealer I was told I could bring the car in the following week. My service representative called back, in a few days, and told me the parts were not in yet and please call back in a few weeks. I called today, 8/5/2019, and was told my service rep. Was on vacation this week and I would be put on their "call back" list and contacted when the parts came in. Then, I called the Honda customer support center and was told the parts might be in "by the end of summer". The "what is the reason for this notice?" see below, states the dangers this defect can cause. I am very concerned about this!the Honda representative said I just "have to wait" and there is nothing else they can do about this. No rental car. Etc. They (Honda) told me they had to issue this warning, per government law, but they can't give a date to their customer as to when the defect will be resolved. Any help, regarding this issue, would be greatly appreciated.
