Was about to go to work earlier today, when my husband tried to push reverse button, shifter button was not in place.. Was later found it in the console area and looks like it just broke and fell without any warning. This is scary. What happens if the car was in motion at that time and you need to change gear or reverse?

While driving on I-95 near Colonial Heights, VA we heard a loud BOOM - thought it was a tire although I continued to maintain control of car. Saw in rearview mirror, a small shingle-size piece of material fly off top of our 2017 Honda CRV, toward car behind us. Stopped & saw that our sunroof had literally BLOWN APART. The "shingle-size" material was the middle of our sunroof blowing off. Fortunately we had just closed our interior sunshade & fortunately the car behind us did not look to be affected by the airborne sunroof material. There was no truck in front of us (no flying debris from another car) & nothing fell on the top of the car! Had we not had the sunshade closed, 1000's of pieces of glass would've rained down on us, possibly causing me to lose control of the vehicle & quite certainly causing an accident w/those around me. Fortunately we were 1.5 miles from an exit & a Honda dealership (!) that assisted us in attaching Crash Wrap to the top of the car so we could continue on our way home to FL - but not without stopping 4 add'l times & also using packing tape to keep the crash tape on the car (due to rain). Broken glass continued to "rain" down onto the sunshade for the next 700 miles - we also feared the crash tape would come off and whip back at another vehicle. I've documented incident w/pictures, contacted my Insurance Company, American Honda Corp, Holler Honda (local dealer) & am scheduled to have the sunroof replaced in the next week. Am. Honda Corp customer svc was unaware of any "exploding sunroof issues", nor was my local Honda dealer. However, the Svc Advisor @ Honda in VA had actually seen 3 exploded sunroofs since May! After some investigation on my part, I found an active court case of Honda/Acura owners who have also experienced exploding sunroofs. There was absolutely NO warning that predicated this incident. This incident could've had a vastly different outcome had my interior shade remained open.

Environmental safety issue: Honda recently extended the warranty on its air conditioning systems due to a known issue of faulty compressor seals. This should be a recall. Many thousands of vehicles (mine included) have been venting their refrigerant into the atmosphere. Even more will do so in the future.

Honda CR-V head unit or central console refuses to dim. This is a serious safety threat as display is glaringly bright and distorts night vision. I did take the vehicle to dealership for inspection and recommendation was to replace the head unit as they think this is a hardware issue. Professionally, I am a software engineer and I find it very hard to accept that this is a hardware issue. The hardware otherwise works perfectly with no defect. Judging by my experience this looks like software is overriding user inputs. Internet forums are full of similar reports by many users. As this can be a serious safety issue, I request you to look into this issue.

The Body Control Module has internal failure. The lights, alarms, locks and dashboard, when not running and locked up in garage, spontaneously come on. When driving vehicle warning lights flash about problems that don't exist. Apparently, the CRV should not be driven with this problem, as it can cause automatic stops, lane changes and other safety issues. This has been a recall in numerous other Honda CRV's, however American Honda refuses to recall 2017's. I believe there are 2 reasons for this; the part is on a National Back Order and the cost to repair is $800. There are many reports of others having the same issues with their 2017 CRV's, I hope we don't have to wait until something serious happens before you have Honda recall the 2017 for failed Body Control Module- the brain of the car. I leased and then purchased this CRV, it has been well taken care of by the local Honda dealer. It was a case manager at Honda who suggested I contact you, as you can do recalls. I have the Paperwork and info and will be happy to email it to you if you need it. Thank you.

AC went out, system charged, went out while driving. 100 degrees outside and car only blows hot air. Not safe for anyone to be in it for prolonged periods of time

The airconditioning system has quit working. The item has not been inspected by a dealer or mechanic.

I was idling and all the warning lights came on. Car seemed driveable, but we replaced the battery as it was still the OEM battery. This did not fix the issue and all safety features are disengaged.

I have 2017 Honda CRV, approximately 65,000 miles, the issue is warning lights keep showing all the messages possible in the dashboard. Tried to reset or reboot, it temporarily disappear then come back again. Brought to the authorized Honda dealership, on their diagnostic, Honda said it is Fuel Injector issue, which is hard to believed for that amount millage, the other issue is the cost to replace 4 fuel injectors of at least $1400. Search in internet that this is common problem to CRV, and also other model. The issue should be recall by Honda since this is happening to most CRV models, I'm just disappointed that when you heard that Honda is a reliable car manufacturer, and cannot fixed multiple warning lights problem, and Honda said it is fuel injector problem, which you think is a software problem is just concerning to other new buyers, I wish new buyers would see this complaints, so they don't have the same problem we are dealing now.

The radio/head unit screen suddenly dimmed to the lowest level while driving making the screen unreadable. The screen shows radio details, Google Maps, Phone and many climate control functions. Access to the screen is needed while driving in order to change climate control settings, etc. Pressing the brightness buttons did nothing and so I had to pull over. The only way to address the issue was the restart the car. This is a known safety issue with this model year CRV and Honda won't repair (update the software) without payment. As a safety defect this should be covered under warranty or recall.

In May of 2022, my CRV showed many warning messages for nearly every system in the vehicle including emissions, brakes, power steering, vehicle stability assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation and several others. A friend had the same thing happen except he was traveling at 70mph and experienced a very serious, life-changing car crash. I had my vehicle towed to Honda dealer and was told there was a misfire on cylinder 3 (PO303) and that cylinder 1 looked worn as well. They replaced spark plugs on those cylinders (though I requested they do all 4 at once) and the A/C unit. Apparently this is a "known problem" to Honda but I was never told things to watch for, or to bring the vehicle in for service, until it was inoperable. The dealership gave me a copy of Service Bulletin 19-032 by Honda-- dated June 18, 2019 and said the "good news" was they would extend my warranty for an additional year. If there were another issue, I would not be on the hook for repairs. Only 6 months later, all of the same warning lights came on again-- this time as I was driving my 3-year-old to daycare. I pulled over and again had the vehicle towed. The dealer reports the same diagnostic codes and issues, but this time says their repair flow chart indicates the next step is a $1500 fuel injector replacement. Somehow, despite being distinctly related, it is not covered by the extended warranty. To my understanding, fuel injectors do not generally need replacing in my area before about 100,000 miles. My vehicle has 70,000 miles on it. My question is, what if this costly repair works for 6 months & then I have the same systems malfunctioning again" What's next on the flow chart & how much will that cost? Most importantly, what if I'm driving at 70mph with my toddler in the back seat when the brake systems go out?" Honda knows this is a serious problem & should have responded more meaningfully years ago. I've loved my CRV but can no longer drive it with confidence.

When pressing with my thumb the button to shift to reverse, the button popped out. Upon examining the button, the end was broken off. With much effort, my husband was able to press it in enough to get it in reverse and then forward. He had to leave the car running when he bought the parts at Honda to fix it. He then brought the parts to a local mechanic and he was able to fix it. The mechanic told him that many tiny pieces had to be cleaned out of the section where the button belongs.

The push button on the shifter broke and fell out. The plastic piece is broken but luckily if we hold it in, it still shifts for now.

air conditioning temperature does not work. no matter what degree, the hot air stays the same, including the lowest degree on the air conditioner register "low". There are no warning lights displayed and there are no leaks detected. I am seeing many other complaints like this and mentions of recalls, but I cannot find a recall notification anywhere. I have less than 26,000 miles on my 2017 car.

Parasitic battery draw. I-??m being told this is what is causing my repeated issues, I-??ve had the car for 3 years and have replaced the battery 4 times. All warning lights keep cycling despite consistently having it looked at for diagnosing. Today the car would barely move- it powered on just fine, but despite depressing the gas pedal- it would barely move more than 5 miles per hour causing severe risk in the road

I started my car and shifted into reverse. The silver part of the gear shift popped of and fell into the foot well. I was able to pick it up and hold it in place and shift the car but it is clearly not safe.

- Old Town, ME, USA

The gear shift button popped off while the car was in drive. The plastic broke, making it impossible to reattach. In order to switch the gear, I had to reach into the gear shift with my finger to manually press down where the button was. It would have been impossible to quickly shift my gear if I had needed.

2017 Honda CR-V. Driving and when arrived to destination went to put car into park and the shifter button was missing. Found it on the floor of the vehicle. The plastic on the button that is inserted had broken. Had trouble getting car into park. Did feel safe to drive. Called dealership they said there was a recall with a range of vin #'s, but my vehicle wasn't in that range. Very bizarre that it happened. Obviously, a defective part and Honda should cover it. Important piece to have just broken like it did.
