CR-V

  • miles
Passenger side has heat, while no heat on driver side of vehicle. The 2013 Honda CRV has less than 24K miles and is already having a plugged/faulty heating core. These problems should not be manifesting till much later in a cars life. The biggest problem is that I live in a cool state during the winter and the windshield is frosting up while driving causing significant visibility loss.

A rodent built a nest in the blower motor of our 2013 Honda CR-V. the rodent nest affected the operation of the motor, and caused rodent contaminated air to be circulated throughout the cabin. This health hazard could have been avoided by installing screening that would prevent rodents from entering the blower motor. The screening is technologically and economically feasible for Honda motor company, ltd. ("Honda"). in addition to the safety hazard, Honda refuses to cover, under warranty, service and repairs for blower motor damage caused by infiltrating rodents despite the design defect. After reviewing complaints available on the internet, it appears that there are many consumers that have been similarly affecting by the design defect, and by Honda's unwillingness to take responsibility for the defect.

The heater seems to be overheating and melting my vents. I have taken it to Honda, and they stated that it was impossible for a heater to get that hot. The heater is so hot that you cannot touch the vents if the heater is turned on, you have to wait 2-4 minutes after turning it off before you can touch the vents. I complained about the vents melting, and they said that it must have been something I did to make it happen, and will not replace the vents or check the heater until I figure out what happened to the vents.
