CR-V 4WD 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 12,000 miles
I own a Honda CRV 2002 ex with automatic transmission and ~12,000 miles. My wife drives the car and it has stalled twice while slowing down to turn in our drive way, the exact spot. It's hard to start afterwards. She does start to undo the seat belt right before the car dies. This is not reproducible. This is dangerous and could cause a fatal accident.

CR-V 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,961 miles
2002 Honda CRV purchased at brickell Honda 12/02 in miami, fl. On 3/6/2003, as car was traveling at approximately 50 mph on a busy highway (palmetto expressway) during rush hour, the car turned off, steering locked. Thankfully I was able to get out of the way of oncoming traffic. It was a miracle I didn't get hit by others traveling at even faster speeds. I took the car, same evening to braman Honda, the closest dealership, where the following day it was repaired. Supposedly, the computer had not been programmed at the time of purchase. This is unacceptable and irresponsible. I could have died, caused significant damage to myself, the car and many others on the same road that day.
