Date of accident: April 13, 2026 I drove into our church parking lot and then parked next to my husband’s car and was totally stopped and in the parking space. I thought I had my foot on the brake. After a split second, it accelerated and jumped the curb of the parking space at a very fast speed. I had no control of the car. I sheared off a heavy metal sidewalk railing and was headed for the brick church (church is on a berm above parking lot), but I managed to steer away to miss the church and a large tree. I steered off the berm and into empty parking lot – still traveling at high speed. I finally threw it into neutral to get it to stop because it was continuing toward a busy street with lots of traffic. Neutral stopped it. No air bags deployed. The front and side of the car that hit the metal railing sustained $6,500 damage. Towed it to collision repair. When we asked at the columbia, mo, Honda dealer’s service department, they said because the air bags didn’t deploy, that it was probably operator’s error and nothing they could do. We didn’t feel that it was operator error and reported to the assistant general manager of Honda in a personal meeting. We asked to have the Honda field engineer exam the car. Instead, they had their district service supervisor exam the car. Their conclusion: they could find nothing wrong with the car. After reading online reports of almost identical accidents with this model, we decided it was too dangerous to drive and sold it back to the Honda dealer.

The contact's son owned a 2025 Honda Cr-v. The contact stated that while her son was driving on the parkway at approximately 40 mph, a loud, booming sound emit from the vehicle. After the booming sound emitting from the vehicle, several warning lights appeared on the instrument panel as the vehicle caught fire. Due to the sudden failure, the vehicle caught fire and the authorities were called to the scene. Once the fire department arrived at the scene the fire was extinguished. No injuries or property damage were reported. A police and fire report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent body shop where it was deemed a total loss as the vehicle was incinerated as a result of the fire. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and the contact was given a case number by the manufacturer. The vehicle was destroyed as a result of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,850.

I am reporting a potential safety recall violation by Honda mall of georgia (3699 buford dr, buford, GA 30519). My vehicle experienced engine noise, vibration, and warning indicators, which the dealership attributed to 'fuel contamination' to deny warranty coverage (attached), and charged approximately $3,392. 99 for repairs. However, I have a certified laboratory analysis (attached) from the georgia department of agriculture confirming the fuel met all state quality standards and had no contamination at costco gas. Costco also provided supporting document (attached) that there was no contamination and there were no other customers reporting such issue. The vehicle required a second repair (attached) for the engine issue immediately after the first, further proving the failure was not 'bad fuel' related. Despite my state-certified proof, the dealer refuses to provide any documentation for their claim of 'bad fuel. ' I believe the dealership has intentionally misdiagnosed a known defect covered under federal safety recall 24v-763 / qk8 (cracked high-pressure fuel pump) to avoid performing a free recall repair.

On 3/17/26, my husband and I started heading n on rt 83 to a medical appointment in our 2025 Honda Cr-v touring sport. We were doing between 40 to 50 miles/hr. Twenty minutes later, we smelled faint smoke which was attributed to the trucks driving around us. Upon exit to our next route we immediately came to a red light and stopped and found heavy dark smoke coming from inside the front of our hood. We slowly moved to the r lane to get to a strip parking lot to move vehicle to a safe spot. When we finally found a safe parking a vehicle stopped to alert us of a noticeable fire at the bottom front of the Honda. We jumped out and 911 was called. By the time police, followed by the fire dept, the front of my Cr-v was engulfed by fire. I had just purchased this 2025 touring sport from carmax 6 months earlier and it had just 7091 miles to it. My insurance and Honda were notified and claim and case #s were filed. Insurance offered a settlement but no word yet from Honda. Inspections were performed by both. Insurance inspectors report it as potential mechanical failure. Honda should offer reparations for the loss of my vehicle and placing our lives and those around us in danger.

My 2025 Honda crv hybrid seems to randomly accelerate on its own. This has happened at least 4 or 5 times over the past year. At first I thought I was imagining it but then I noticed it happened again, multiple times. Each time I was not pressing the gas pedal nor at any time was I using cruise control. I never use the cruise control. The vehicle seems to accelerate on its on for about 3-4 seconds then stops when I press the break. Clearly uncontrollable and unexpected acceleration of the vehicle puts me, my passengers and others are at risk. I called my local Honda dealer service department and was told that unless I can recreate the random and spontaneous acceleration at the dealership then they won't be able to diagnosis or write for the issue. The Honda service rep said sense I have no idea when it is going to happen again he cannot set a appointment for me to come in without having a current issue. Because the acceleration is random and because I cannot recreate it at will, the problem has not been confirmed by a dealer or service center and the vehicle has not been inspected. The acceleration issue is random and spontaneous with no warning lamps, no messages and no other symptoms prior to. Once it stops it may no happen again for weeks or months. However as mentioned about it has happened at least 4 to 5 times within the past year with the most recent occurrence on March 6th 2026 ----end-----.

I’m driving a Honda crv 2025. It recently has an electrical issue. It has happened 3 times. Two while starting up the car that I couldn’t start up the car. And one while I was backing off my car on the driveway, the car was suddenly stopped in the middle of the road. When it happened, dashboard lights were flickering randomly, and there was some electric noise on and off. I have brought the car to the dealer for a diagnostic, but they couldn’t reproduce or find any issue. They even said that they have tested and verified that the car was totally safe to drive. That raised me a safety concern if the car suddenly stop when I’m on freeway at high speed.

At 17,000 miles and 17 months of ownership the car started clattering badly on startup. The check engine light came on as well as an advisory that there might be an emissions problem, and to take the car to the dealer. We had it towed in (inconvenient as we were out of town). The problem was diagnosed as faulty fuel injectors which are being replaced under warranty. We were told this is not an uncommon problem for the 2025 hybrid Cr-v.

At approximately[xxx] I was driving the Cr-v. I merged onto [xxx] from [xxx] going toward the [xxx] exit. Shortly after merging onto [xxx] a warning light came on stating something like “emission system problem. You may lose power. See your dealer. ” very shortly after this the engine did start to lose power. Fortunately, I was able to pull over to the side of the freeway. Felt very unsafe. Waited a minute and shut the car off and turned it back on. I was able to start going back to my original destination. Within seconds the warning flashed again and stayed on the entire way there (around 2-3 miles). I called a tow truck to take the vehicle to the dealer. Was told by dealer (germain Honda of dublin) that they were replacing the cylinder heads. This was done and when they test drove it the problem occurred again. The dealer then replaced the fuel injector and this supposedly fixed the problem. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Vehicle displayed a “critial power failure” on the highway twice while under 1000 miles odometer. Vehicle acceleration stopped and car coasted. Needed to pull over and shut off. After turning on displayed “emissions system failure” warning for about 48 hours then cleared. Vehicle stalled twice while driving on the highway with no power. Very dangerous as one time I had nowhere to pull over while my car slowed to a stop. Children were very scared in the backseat.

This is a complaint about the unresolved recall that I have been put on a waitlist for many months now. The dealership said that Honda will mail me when the parts will be ready for repaired, but it’s been many months since the NHTSA saying the remedy is available. My appointment with the dealership had been canceled the last minute by my dealership after a promise of a mailing notice, but time has flew long enough. I am afraid for my safety on the road as my new vehicle is completely within the range of damage for the unresolved remedy.

I bought new 2025 Honda Cr-v hybrid from germain Honda of dublin, OH on 07/18/2024. It's supposed to get highway :34 [3], / city mpg: 40 [3] estimated. I got up to 37 to 39 mpg in the city for the few months. Since last 2 1/2-month milage start reducing every day. Now it reaches to 28. 3 mpg when I travelled from chicago, IL to powell, OH on 13th December 2024 I only got 29 to 30 mpg. Now in the city, I am only getting 28. 3 to 28. 5 mpg. Weather may have some impact, but it cannot reduce from 39 mpg to 28 mpg. I am also paying $100/year for use of hybrid card to mva. Germain Honda dealer checked the car on November 12th, and they said everything is ok but there's is an issue. At present I am only getting 28. 3 mpg. Also, I have called dealer for recall issue for several times, still they don't have parts.

Per dealer service department, cylinder one (1) rocker arm/lifter was getting stuck and caused a system and transmission failure.

The speedometer can report zero (0) when the car is moving slowly. This is probably the rounding policy in software. The actual speed was maybe 0. 4 mph, but was reported as zero mph. If the actual speed was 10. 4 mph but reported as 10, fine, not a big deal, but zero has a much different meaning than any other value. It means none, that the car isn't moving, but the car was.
