36 Blind Spot Detection problem of the 2019 Honda CR-V

Failure Date: 11/25/2022

While driving on highway mph 65-75 vehicle will show break sign and give sound warning and auto break with no car in front that would indicate a need for such an event. This has happened more than a few times and each time the vehicle slows quickly enough to jerk your head forward and scare the crap out of not only myself but my children. This even happens when the cruise control is on and set.

37 Blind Spot Detection problem of the 2018 Honda CR-V

Failure Date: 09/25/2022

Sep 25, 2022, en route from columbus, OH to wv our 2018 Honda crv started flashing a plethora of warnings regarding braking problems, blind spot failure, lane assist failure, collision mitigation failure, and many other driver assistance failures. We pulled off the interstate, into a service station, at the nearest exit. Once the car was stopped, the rear wheels locked and the electronic emergency brake would not release. We had the car towed to the local Honda dealership in zanesville, OH. On oct 3, 2022 the zanesville dealership contacted us to pick up the car; they had replaced a wiring harness and control module over the rear view mirror. They said the wiring had “melted”; they said they did not have the expertise to resolve all the warnings but that the car could be driven. We picked up the car on oct 8, 2022. Within 20 miles, the car was not only flashing warnings but also constantly beeping. We made it to bruceton mills, wv before stopping for gas. Again, once stopped, the rear wheels locked and the electronic parking brake refused to release. The car was towed to the I-79 Honda dealership in morgantown,wv. That dealership has master electronic technicians. That was 2 months ago and the car is still there. The dealership has been in contact with Honda, inc but they simply cannot resolve the electrical problems and are awaiting a Honda field technician to troubleshoot. This was a systemic electronics failure that incapacitated all of the electronic safety features — making the vehicle unsafe to drive.

Failure Date: 03/01/2022

While driving the emergency braking will automatically slam on the brakes when there is nothing there. It alerts of lane departure when still driving within the lane. Fails to alert of vehicle in blind spot. Issues are intermittent, but I fear they may cause me to wreck.

39 Blind Spot Detection problem of the 2018 Honda CR-V

Failure Date: 01/11/2022

I was driving through a green light at 40mph with no vehicles in front of me or next to me and in the middle of the intersection, my dash flashed with the warning to "brake" as it "detected" something in front of me. Within less than 2 seconds my vehicle lurched to a complete stop with the brakes totally locking up the vehicle. The brakes thudded to stop my vehicle entirely in the middle of the intersection. Within a couple more seconds the vehicle was totally fine and let me proceed. I was lucky I wasn't rear-ended and I'm very glad the light wasn't red by the time I was able to go through it. I was carrying my entire family in the car and everyone was so worried about riding with me that I automatically pulled over and disabled the automatic emergency braking system altogether. I've not turned it back on for fear of the vehicle getting me into an accident. I have also received blind spot warnings with nothing in my blind spots. Most specifically, I was in the right hand lane and put on my turn signal to switch into the left hand lane, and my car audibly beeped and flashed its lights. There was not a vehicle or even a barrier to my left that it could have sensed. The sensor just totally gave out. It's at the point where I do not trust anything about the car. I won't even use cruise control because I don't trust that the car's "safety features" are actually safe enough to protect me. I have not had the vehicle inspected due to the fact that this seems to be an issue with other vehicles and I can't afford a mechanic to tell me there is nothing that they can do.

46 Blind Spot Detection problem of the 2019 Honda CR-V

Failure Date: 04/01/2021

In car mounted screen for radio etc randomly changes while driving. From brightness off and on and darker to volume changing on its own. Only way to stop it (sometimes) is to turn off and turn back on the vehicle. Blind spot sensors also go out randomly sometimes because of weather other times (rarely, but still happened) randomly while driving.

47 Blind Spot Detection problem of the 2017 Honda CR-V

Failure Date: 02/27/2021

For the past few months all of my warning lights come on. They will go off at times, other times I have to pull over to restart my car. In addition, my display will go dim or get very bright on it's own. On February 27, 2021 my alarm started to go off for no reason. They car was parked in my driveway and no one was near the remote. I could not get the alarm to go off, no matter what I did. On Monday, March 1st I went to start my car and it would not start or respond to anything with the remote. I contacted the dealership, valley Honda in monroeville, PA. They stated that it could be the battery having low voltage. The dealership is over 45 minutes away and I needed a vehicle to help care for my ill father so I purchased a new battery and installed it late Monday night. As soon as I started the vehicle all of the dashboards lights started flashing and the alarm would randomly go off. This continued until I could get it to the dealership on weds night. They diagnosed it as a body control module. My car is only 4 years old with 50k mileage but the Honda warranty is out. I even called Honda who only offered a courtesy partial payment, as long as I did not pick up my vehicle until they finished their investigation. There is absolutely no reason for my display to have been acting up or a need to replace a bcm with a vehicle that is only 4 years old!.
