Three problems related to blind spot detection have been reported for the 2026 Honda CR-V. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2026 Honda CR-V based on all problems reported for the 2026 CR-V.
The front radar sensor (behind the h emblem on the front grill) was stolen. The car still drives, but all the safety features tied to it are now disabled. Honda service center wants $119 just to diagnose it. I was then quoted ~$1,500 for the part + ~$2,000 for labor (before tax). After looking into it, this seems to be happening frequently with Cr-vs. The radar sensor is externally accessible and can be removed in minutes. Thieves know this and it’s clearly becoming a trend. This feels like a design vulnerability for such a critical safety component. What’s worse is Honda won’t even provide a free estimate even though reprogramming has to be done through them anyway.
Took my 2026 Honda crv touring sport hybrid through the car wash exactly one month and one day after purchasing. Upon leaving, I noticed a perfect horizontal crack the length of the passenger side mirror. I was later told this was a known issue due to extreme temperature changes (low temperatures) and to report it here.
Driver's side mirror cracked at the first hint of cold weather in our area. The crack makes it difficult to change lanes and affects the lane assist warning. There are numerous reports of this problem, and Honda will not admit it when there is no damage to the housing.
