37 Steering problem

Failure Date: 02/14/2021

I leased a brand new Cr-v and 12 hours after I left the dealership it malfunctioned. While driving 7 mph in my apartment complex my brakes and steering wheel locked up causing me to bump into a concrete sidewalk barrier. My computer system alerted me to system failures for power steering, braking, awd, etc. The only damage was scuffed up tires and hubcaps. After having it towed to the dealership they said I wrecked the vehicle and there was no malfunction. They also said the wheel rod was bent to a 90 degree angle. I find it very concerning that the wheel rod could be bent that much while only going 7mph. The dealership does not believe that the vehicle malfunctioned causing me to wreck an are adamant I caused all the issues. This is a serious malfunction an I am lucky to be alive today.

38 Steering problem

Failure Date: 03/14/2020

Soon before driving my new vehicle, in a preliminary inspection, I found extensive rusting around the exhaust pipes and system. The mechanic from the dealership said that was normal. Just before driving, the millage screen read as 000019. The dealer told us this is 0. 019 of a mile. Soon after I drove my car out of the dealership, I experienced 4 episodes of car becoming unstable, flipping from one side of road to the other. This occurred over a 23 miles of driving in high way. I called the dealership immediately. They dismissed it as normal. At arrival, after driving 23 miles, the mileage screen read 42 miles. The dealer then admitted the initial read was in fact 19 miles not 0. 019 mile.
