Unable to align rear tires due to cambers lacking adjustment.

After three service attempts by the Honda dealer to correct the car not tracking straight, I had a local alignment shop install rear camber adjusting kits. Car did not track straight, prior to installing the after-market kits, the car would continually drift left. The dealer now states the warranty is void because I put non-Honda parts on the car. When I called the dealer parts department, they have the same after market rear camber kit. Searching customer complaints on sites such as edmound's, a significant number of customers complain about tire wear. My tires were wearing excessively and abnormal prior to correcting alignment on all four wheels. It appears that the 2008 Honda Cr-v has a manufacturer defect and later year cars do not when a search of customer complaints is done.

I experienced excessive "cupping" on the rear tires of my new 2008 Honda cr-v awd. The tires began to make a very loud noise and the vehicle developed a slight bouncing ride at about 22,000 miles and both issues became intolerable at about 26,000 miles, and you could feel the extreme cupping of the tires when rubbing your hand over the tread. I had the dealer rotate the tires with every scheduled oil change, and the cupping problem still continued to occur. The vehicle came with the conti 4 x 4 tires, and they needed to be replaced at my expense well before a reasonable life expectancy. The Honda dealer would not provide me with any warranty assistance or discount, stating that they would do a 4 wheel alignment on the vehicle - at my expense - and sell me 4 new tires. There are numerous forums on the internet where people are complaining and alleging that the awd vehicles (fwd's are ok) are leaving the factory with improper alignment of the rear camber and it is causing the premature wear of the factory tires. The dealer claimed that they had no knowledge of this problem. I took the vehicle to a national tire shop and purchased 4 new tires and had them perform a 4 wheel alignment on the vehicle. . . . The computer read-out that they provided me showed that the rear tires were aligned in extreme opposite directions. The employees at the tire shop alleged that they were very familiar with the problem because they see lots of 2007 and 2008 Honda crv's in their shop with the same problem. I believe there is a problem for which Honda doesn't want to accept responsibility. Tire cupping is not only a nuisance because of the rumbling noise that gets louder at freeway speeds - it is also a safety issue for braking and traction because of how it affects the amount of tread surface contact with the roadway. Immediately upon leaving the tire shop, the problem disappeared and the vehicle ride is quiet and great. I cost me over $800 for new tires and a 4 wheel alignment.

Lack of adjustment for rear camber on 2008 Honda crv. Have contacted american Honda and they do not feel there is a problem. Dealer has contacted same and they can't get anywhere either. Dealer acknowledges that there is a problem with the lack of adjustment for rear chamber on this vehicle. There is a aftermarket part that will correct the problem. But I should not have to pay for this part. If I where to buy this part and have it installed by local dealer he said I would void my warranty.

2005 Honda Cr-v two problems since new: 1) camber wear on both rear tires (wears outside treads), but Cr-v has no camber adjustment--caused by lashing the rear axle down when new on car transporter truck. 2) car pulls to the right when accelerating from a stop.

Rear suspension arm mounting bushing is inadequate and caused the arms flat end to lock into the asphalt when it broke free from its split pin restrants while I was backing up. Had I been traveling at any speed this failure would have most likely caused the vehicle to vault and flip or rip off the rear wheel assembily.
