general problems of the 2019 Honda CR-V - part 1

My 2019 Honda Cr-v, which has the 1. 5 liter turbo engine, with 78,000 started up with the dashboard lit up like a xmas tree and reported approx. A dozen faults of all safety features epb, lkas, emissions, etc. It was diagnosed by lester glenn Honda in wall, NJ with oil dilution caused by the leaky fuel injectors. The mechanic noted tdc p0172 - system too rich & p0301- cylinder 1 misfire and all fuel injectors failed a/f test. This vehicle had its fuel pump replaced earlier this year pursuant to the Honda recall for this (wondering if related). The same underlying problem was subject to a safety recall for the 2017-2018 model years, but the defect was not included for my 2019 model year even though it's the same 1. 5l turbo motor and there are numerous complaints from customers on the same exact issue. I was quoted over $2300 since it was past the warranty period (8k miles past the extended 7/70k emissions warranty that would have covered this 100%). Not only is this premature failure of critical engine component making the engine run very rough with a sudden and severe loss of powers, it produces a safety hazard of a direct rear-end crash risk due to the inability to maintain a safe operating speed. This is a significant expense for a defect Honda is already aware of. I believe this is a manufacturing defect that should be fully covered by Honda, along with any related systems affected by this issue. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this widespread defect affecting 2017–2019 Cr-v models and issue a recall. I have not had it repaired yet as I asked the dealer to contact Honda corporate and ask for a goodwill/good faith warranty.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle and while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated. An independent mechanic was contacted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the head gasket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer for the same diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was filed, and the contact was informed that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed by a Honda dealer and that partial assistance could be provided. The failure mileage was 62,000.

Turbo failure on the highway caused loss of power and significantly reduced acceleration. The car only had 59,930 miles on it. Now we are getting a repair quote from a Honda dealer to replace the turbo for over $4,500 with no guarantee it will fix the problem.

Vehicle started hesitating on traffic while running on a 50mph zone, if vehicle would had die on me more than likely I would have been hit from behind by another vehicle. I exited the main road and drove cautiously home. Honda dealer inspected vehicle and confirmed a failed engine head gasket.

I have Honda 2019 crv and didn’t get alert my head gasket is shot. No notice on my car overheating or any alert. Smoke coming from my car and Honda didn’t alert me. There is class action lawsuit against Honda right now about head gasket failure in my Honda 2019 crv. This rare issue for Honda crv and should be investigated for recall!.

To whom it may concern, while driving my 2019 Honda Cr-v awd ex, multiple warning lights suddenly illuminated on the dashboard, including the check engine light, vsa (vehicle stability assist), tpms, and collision mitigation system. This has occurred multiple times and appears to be a well-documented issue among other Honda Cr-v owners. The dealer diagnosed a faulty fuel injector system (code p0172 – system too rich) and recommended a full injector replacement. This issue matches known cases addressed under Honda TSB 19-072, but is not currently covered under a full recall. The sudden illumination of all warning lights, combined with reduced power, is a serious safety concern as it may cause loss of control or delayed response in critical traffic situations. We have been quoted between $1,200 and $2,500 to repair this issue, which is a significant expense for a defect Honda is already aware of. I believe this is a manufacturing defect that should be fully covered by Honda, along with any related systems affected by this issue. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this widespread defect affecting 2017–2019 Cr-v models and issue a recall. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards,.

I was traveling on the highway when suddenly my car started shuddering and slowing down. It was heavy traffic and difficult to navigate to the right shoulder, and my car was nearly hit by a semi-truck. The engine was misfiring and the engine light blinking yellow. I was able to turn off and restart my car and make it home. The mechanic initially thought the issue was old spark plugs and ignition coils. Replacing them didn’t help. I was again on a highway when the issue happened again. I brought the car to the dealership and they said the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. I spent over $2k to replace them on 7/7/25. The problem hasn’t happened since.

Honda is not completing this recall in a reasonable manner, and despite claiming parts are available they are not. After two years of delays, and now threats that our registration will be not renewed if we do not perform the recall, Honda still does not have the parts. Furthermore, they want you to bring in the car, have it inspected, after which they will decide if they want to replace the part. The inspection is being done because the fuel pump may crack due to poor manufacturing practices; however, after an inspection they will not actually fix the defective part if they do not find a crack. This will surely result in failures later when the defective part eventually fails. In their process, some time after the inspection and after some time ordering it and receiving it, they will replace it, at their discretion. This is wholly absurd, and I encourage you to actually force Honda to perform this recall and replace these parts in a timely manner. Two years is more than enough time to produce 700,000 fuel pumps.

My 2019 Honda crv has been in and out of shops since April 1st. On April 1st lights popped on on my dashboard the lights were break system lights. All wheel drive system lights, and then the lane keep assist adaptive cruise ect were on and not operational. I looked up what could cause that to happen and it stated rear differential fluid could pop lights on. I took it to the dealership and stated it felt like it was running funny but the lights all went off before I got there but if they could do the rear diff fluid and run diagnostic just to be safe that'd be great. Diagnostic found nothing wrong g with my vehicle. A few days later the same lights came on and then multiple other lights came on, my boyfriend stated it could be electrical maybe spark plugs so we bought them and replaced them. Restarted the car and drove it they went off but then came back on next morning. Next solution was maybe my battery has gone bad. Bought a new battery in hopes it'd work and no luck. We pull out our code reader and it pulls a code for cam shaft position sensors so we purchase those and replace them and still no luck. I finally take it to a repair shop since there's nothing else we can do on our own to fix the issue and the repair shop has a hard time trying to diagnose the issue. They ran codes and tests trying to figure this out they checked the mechanical side of things since the dealership only checked electrical side of things and found that my car had debris in the oil. They began researching and finding the Hondas in my year and make and model with the 1. 5 turbo engines have a class action lawsuit due to oil dilution and after more digging they found that I did indeed suffer from this and would need an engine replacement due to the damage that has been done and that would be around 10k. Honda knowing sold me a vehicle that could have an issue like this. I bought the car used and kept up on all maintenance and now am having my car repossessed because I cant afford the repa.

The contact's father owns a 2019 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that after his father struck a deer, the check engine warning light and several other warning lights became illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for service. The contact stated that after several repairs were made to the vehicle, the check engine warning light returned soon after the repair. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where a diagnostic test was performed which showed a fault with the fuel injectors. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was then referred to the NHTSA hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

Good afternoon, my 2019 Honda Cr-v suddenly displayed all warnings on the dashboard while operating the vehicle. The warnings remained but would sometimes disappear. However, while driving the vehicle on [xxx], the vehicle suddenly decelerated and was unable to accelerate while driving in traffic. Given any other situation or position of my car on the road, an accident would have occurred. On March 12, 2025, my 2019 Honda Cr-v was repaired by pearson Honda. Pearson Honda determined that the 2019 Honda Cr-v had fault fuel injectors, and the fuel injectors were placed. The 2019 Honda Cr-v had 66,888 miles at the time of service. As you're likely aware, recalls have been issued on various other Honda models relating to issues with the fuel injectors. Additionally, there is an abundance of online forum posts highlighting the issue and likely other NHTSA stating the same: - [xxx] (user aly1337 noting that fuel injectors in their 2017 Honda Cr-v went bad at around 68,000 miles) - [xxx] (various users noting that their Honda Cr-vs of varying years have had fuel injector issues) please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you! [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I was driving in I-694 to dealer for a scheduled oil change when all of the warning lights came on at once and I lost ability to accelerate. This was frightening and dangerous. I was surrounded by many vehicles, including semis. There were no advanced warnings. The dealer diagnosed turbo and engine failure. I brought the vehicle to an independent mechanic for a second opinion, and he stated that there was a large quantity of fuel in the engine oil. I had brought my vehicle to the Honda dealer for maintenance over the prior three year period, and was never advised that I needed to check the turbo, that it could fail, or that I needed more frequent oil changes. I have since discovered that Honda is aware of this engine defect that causes fuel to mix with the oil, which then can cause premature engine failure, but they refuse to fix it.

Was driving on a major highway when multiple dashboard lights became lit and car went into limp mode. We were put at risk because we could not keep up with traffic and we were 10 miles from home on a cold winter day. Car was brought to a Honda dealer who determined that the engine and turbo were destroyed as a result of a head gasket failure.

My wife was driving the Honda crv (61k miles, 2019) through a parking lot when suddenly all kinds of buzzers and warning lights came on. There was no warning anything was wrong before this. All of the driver assist features read failures, none of the gauges worked, all of the dash was lit up like a christmas tree. Sufficed to say this freaked my wife out. She was in a parking lot, she's very anxious and this nearly caused an accident in the lot. There was no visible loss of power, but if we were on the freeway? terrible accident! we've heard of other people having the same issue from crv forums. Anyway, we took it to two different places to get the codes checked, and the codes were p0172 (fuel system too rich) and u0401-68 (ecm failure). We then went to a mechanics shop who diagnosed the problem but said they couldn't touch anything until the ecm was fixed by a dealer. We went to Honda west in las vegas, nv (w sahara location), but they said there was no issue with the ecm. In fact, they said that "it's normal for everything to shut off like that when one system goes wrong or bad. " well, the problem is my wife suffers from occasional anxiety and panic attacks, but can drive normally. We've had a check engine light come on before and we've handled it. But the whole dash lighting up for 1 or 2 issues? a potential loss of power, skid control, driver assist features, all out the window because of two codes? by the way, the dealer said nothing was wrong with the ecm. Then why did a code populate for it? this needs to be fixed. The fact that I'm out $200 for a diagnostic fee, to be told that the issue is the fuel injectors (lines up with p0172 code) is fine, but why is everything lighting up like that? it's dangerous, and it's also a known issue. They need to recall their fuel injectors on their crvs. I only found out after I bought one. The ecm also clearly needs to be fixed. Now, again, they're making money from misery.

As I was driving on the highway, and with no warning my engine just shut off. Without any warning ligts or anything. Car then started back up and was able to pull off the highway when again this time the engine light came on and then just seized. And would not turn back over. Luckily traffic was not moving very fast on the highway or a serious accident could have happened due to the engine shutting down. Vehicle has been in shop for 2 months and was just returned to me, with a lot of the engine having to be replaced.

My crv 2019 ex Honda is losing power while drivng. It is very concerning since it is happening very often and it can reduce all of a sudden the speed while driving on a highway. I have to stop the car, turn off and then on again to continue. I went to see if there was a recall, but no recall for my car. They say I should change the gas cap but I am not sure that will solve the problem since I’ve heard it can be a software.

I have contacted my local Honda dealer about this issue months ago and the recall and they said they did not have parts available yet. I have always kept my maintenance up since I bought it new. On the way home the other night all of a sudden my turbo charger blew and took out my catalytic converter along with it. I was told this was a $8000 repair!!!! it only has 135,000 on the car. I have read and spoke to many people that stated that the fuel pump issues can cause this! I am so upset by all of this. I should not have to pay for this nor is this safe!.

As I was attempting to quickly accelerate to merge onto the freeway my vehicle experienced extreme hesitation and engine misfires. All my dash warning lights were then illuminated. My vehicle nearly came to a stop. This nearly caused me to be rearended by vehicles on the freeway especially an 18-wheeler that was quickly approaching to my rear. I limped onto the side median where I stopped my vehicle turned it off and then restarted it. It restarted but all the warning lights were still illuminated. I managed to drive slowly to my dealership where my vehicle had just been around two weeks prior for a similar incident (only the one engine warning light was illuminated) where they replaced my fuel pump under recall. On my latest incident they did a diagnostic check, and it displayed dtc codes p0172, p0300, p0301, p0302, p0304, multiple cylinder misfires and fuel rail pressure too high. At their recommendation they replaced my fuel injector and spark plugs. My vehicle was 4 months and 8000 miles out of the extended Honda care warranty I had purchased when I bought my vehicle, so I had to pay for the repairs. Nearly 10 days later my vehicle was experiencing similar symptoms of hesitation and misfires upon rapid acceleration with all dash warning lights illuminated. I stopped and restarted my car drove it to an auto parts store where they ran a computer diagnostic check, and it showed random misfires and also this time it said I needed my pcm reprogrammed. I managed to reset the codes and now looking to sell my vehicle. I felt compelled to notify Honda corporate customer relations via email, not just for a reimbursement of payment but also for safety notification; they checked my VIN and was told since there was not a current campaign on that VIN and it was out of warranty so it's up to me to repair. I believe it is a safety issue affecting my model like it has affected others.

7/20/2024 Saturday at 10:53 am while driving at about 50 mph onto hwy 316 toward I-85 south, my Honda crv 2019 suddenly stalled, all alarms setup, beeping on the dashboard, while I was puzzling what was happening, the car behind us almost slammed into our car, narrowly missed by sudden turned to my lefthand side. We hit the emergency light immediately, then pull over to the side, and immediately called my favorite Honda mall of georgia dealership (hmgd), buford, GA the lady was very nice after she heard the incident, gave us the name and mentioned to contact service manager directly first thing on Monday, also scheduled us to checkup on 7/24/2024 . Me and my wife called the office again on Monday 7/22/2024 11:15 am, to reiterate the dangerous incident which occurred two days ago. However, service manager was away from the office, after a few minutes, the assistant manager responded immediately, recommended us to bring in to have a thorough checkup. Also we stated that we have been calling the office regarding the fuel injection pump recall (since 12/28/2023 regarding engine fuel injection pump replacement), for more than 5 times according to our record. The responses were no parts available until August 3x, then delayed till September 2x, recently said till this fall 2024. Having said that, if the incident happened again, while our whole family, my daughter and two grandchildren all on our favorite Honda SUV, if a semi-truck was behind us on I-85 that day, a crash accident would have been fatal the whole family and daughter and two grandkids?after hmgd completed checkup from 7/24 to 7/25, stated the technician and hqtr still could not identify any recall related issue. Then stated my crv is ready to pick up. (repair-order- 933283. Dated 07/25/2024) I was startled by the statement. Our Honda (hmgd), is willing to put our lives and safety at risk on the highway again, as long as you bring the car back for the next incident, (if you survive the crash). Really !.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, several unknown warning lights illuminated, causing the cruise control mode and the lane mitigation system to become inoperable. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that there was fuel intrusion in the engine oil. The dealer determined that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

A little over two weeks ago we took our 2019 Honda crv to the dealership because all the indicator lights were lighting up on the dashboard. It started as I was sitting in the car with the car idling as I waited for my husband to come out of the store. We took a short video of what it was doing. The car was at the dealership the next day, but there were no indicator lights like the previous day. We shared the video with the service rep. When we picked it up we were told the fuel injectors needed to be replaced and it would cost in excess of $2,300. The car has less than 78,000 miles on it. The service rep said that if it was his car he would not drive it a distance (freeway) with this problem. That says to me that it is a safety issue. We had been concerned that it could be an electrical issue because the car was in a front-end, side-swipe collision in November 2023, and we had just gotten it back from repairs at the dealership two weeks before the indicator lights problem. The service rep assured us it was not an electrical problem. I looked up the problem on the internet. On cargurus. Com there were a number of other Honda crv owners with the same problem at about the same mileage. Our safety is at risk with possible risk to friends and family because we need to drive on the freeway for daily activities. We took it to an independent automotive service location. They did not come to the same conclusion; the indicator lights were no longer on. This vehicle component has not been inspected by any others, other than already mentioned.

Was parked on side of road. No previous warning lights. Car would not start. Unable to put on hazard lights in dark on highway. Had to be towed. All dash wearing lights on only. Was at dealer 2 months prior due to all dash lights on and power failure. Replaced battery and car was re coded per dealer. Prior to that all dash lights came on when car turned off and had to disconnect battery cable every night. Now car does not turnover when jumped and battery charged. Dealer thinks might be a Smart unit and parasitic battery drain. Car only has 42000 miles on it. No hazards, worried about being rear ended. I what if there was an abrupt power failure while driving. Living in wisconsin what if stranded in freezing temps. Unreliable car due to manufacture defects.

Vehicle has approximately 90,000 miles and a rod broke off inside the engine causing a hole in the engine. Engine needed to be replaced. Honda reported that this happened because oil changes did not occur every 3000-6000 miles. Vehicle was purchased new October 2019 and engine failure occurred December 2023. Most recent oil change was completed 10/31/23 by Honda dealership at 89,529 miles.

2019 Honda crv 61k miles, already had all lights on dash pop up. Says battery is bad, but its good. Then asked me to change engine filter and cabin, done and good now its saying fuel injectors? when does it end this is a joke.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that while driving uphill at a low rate of speed, an abnormal, grinding noise began to emit from the vehicle. As the failure persisted, the vehicle stalled as several warning lights appeared on the instrument panel. The contact called a friend who assisted with having the vehicle towed to to his home. The contact called a local dealer and an independent mechanic who declined to service his vehicle. The contact then called Honda of cleveland(2701 s lee hwy, cleveland, TN 37311) who agreed to service the vehicle. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer where they the contact was informed that a blown engine rod had caused failure. The manufacturer agreed to cover half the cost of a new engine while the contact paid the remaining balance for a new engine. The vehicle had been repaired. The failure mileage was 69,784.

On two separate occasions, the car shut off shortly after the car was turned on. After the first occasion, we thought it was a battery problem and called aaa. They said the battery was in good condition ( it was replaced in 3. 2023) and the car turned on after a jump start. Several weeks later the same thing happened and the car would not turn on even after a jump start. I had the car towed to a local auto store where they told us the work up showed a p0087 error - low fuel pressure. This was a felt to be an issue with the fuel pump and recommended we take the car to Honda as this was supposed to be under recall for crvs from 2018 and 2019. We towed the car to Honda and they confirmed it was fuel pump issue but our car VIN was not associated with the current recall. The dealership and Honda corporate ultimately refused to cover the cost of repair/replacement of fuel pump as they said our vehicle is currently not under the recall despite the fact that our Honda crv is also from 2019. I am filing this complaint to notify nthsb of the issue we had and whether our vehicle and potentially other vehicles would need to be included in the current recall.

Ever since the fuel pump was replaced by the recall, the car has had a delayed start. Recently the car started but when pit in drive the car stalls. The car does not reliably run, and can stall at any moment. . We have been informed by the dealership that it is now the fuel pump motor that has failed. Seems to me that this is part of the same problem.

When the fuel injectors go bad or out in the 2019 crv, the check engine light should just come on. Instead the crv 2019 crv all lights come on dashboard disabling all safety systems in the car and makes those safety systems unusable when it should just be alerting you of an engine issue. This could cause accidents with a vehicle, rather than the engine just shutting down. Honda has known about it not fixing not only fuel injector they need to be fixing the electric problem that goes along disabling the safety features. They also need to get fuel injector parts in stock. Also, the fuel injector cause further damage to other parts of the vehicle. It damages spark plugs, oil. Honda should been recalling this issue awhile. We take good care of our vehicle and have up kept this vehicle. This one needs to be fixed properly fixing just the injector not enough they have to fix the issue of the safety features where doesn’t disable the whole car along with new injectors.

This happens at least once a week. My engine randomly stalls and restarts while driving. Sometimes it happens while I'm turning my steering wheel to the left, and other times it happens while driving on the highway. The whole car shuts down for a few seconds and then restarts and continues as if nothing was wrong. I've also had occasions where, when I turn my steering wheel, some of the features will stop working, like lane assist, cruise control, etc.

The fuel pump allegedly is on recall, but other issues are underlying that Honda is aware of but won't go public. My emergency braking system alerts but there is no car in front of me. The pump stalls the car to where it won't go above 20mph, and the car does not shift gears when it stalls. Honda has no answer my car has been down since 06/2023 it is a one car family, I have wasted and depleted mu funds on a rental car and Honda has no answer for me. My safety was at risk as the car stall and slowed down mid speed on the highway. All the lights appeared on the dashboard.

Engine stall when start up. Lossing power while driving and making loud noise. All warning lights randomly flashing. Gas smell from tailpine.

Vehicle had a engine failure at 64,000 miles, vehicle was very well maintained by dealer, on time, I went in for a oil change drove in to the dealer, got vehicle back and 400 miles down the road had loud knock in the engine, dealer told me they saw metal shavings, possibly a spun bearing from oil dilution, they refuse to repair it as it’s passed the 60,000 warranty mark leaving me with a $6000 bill.
