While driving the CR-V down the country roads in my area the vehicle started to shake and loose power. The check engine light came on and while trying to find a safe place to pull off the vehicle began loosing power. With the gas pressed to the floor the vehicle would not go above five miles an hour. Finding a location to pull over. The vehicle was shut off and the engine was crackling and smelled like it was burning. Getting out of vehicle for safety reasons allowed showed that the smell was worse on the outside. The vehicle was towed to the dealership where it was deemed in operable. They provided me with a loaner; however, I am paying for a vehicle that cannot be driven. This vehicle was only off the lot for three months with less than 800 miles.

I was driving to Honda dealer on March 6, 2019 for my second oil change as a result of me calling the dealership and telling them my oil smelled like it had gas in it again. This is with less than 700 miles since the first oil change that I had done on February 13, 2019. My first oil change was with 4525 miles, this was done as part of a recall on my vehicle. On this March 6th trip I was about 40 miles away from the dealership and my acc (adaptive cruise control) shut down, the collision mitigation system problem and road departure mitigation system problem lights all came up on dash of car and kept scrolling on dash. When my car did this I was unsure, felt unsafe and was frustrated as not knowing what was going on and how many more problems I am going to have with this vehicle. I found a safe place to pull over and called the dealer and told him what was going on, he said the car was safe to drive but those systems that were scrolling on dash weren't operating. It was 6 F outside a clear road and a sunny day in North Dakota. After the oil change, I was told the oil was high and that there was again gas in my oil again. At this point I am beyond frustrated and wondering how many more problems I will be having with this new vehicle and the nearest dealership to me is 100 miles away, which causes me time and expense to get to dealership. This also causes me to wonder how reliable this new vehicle can be in North Dakota in the winter time as also not getting much heat out of the heating system either, so between the heat, the gas in the oil and electrical problems I am not feeling that this is a safe dependable vehicle to drive, as a person could freeze to death if ended up stranded when the car shuts down and no heat, like it did when I had my appointment for the recall on 2-12-19 and it had to be put on flat bed truck to get recall done.

2018 Honda CR-V touring infotainment system flickers, screen turns on and off by it self as well as the brightness of the screen changes by it self and the screen stops responding, weather you are listening to the radio, god, etc all just gets interrupted by the issue. Honda won't fix the problem because they claim there is no solution to the problem. A temporary solution is to pull over and turn off car and back on. Very distracting while driving and frustrating specially since this happens while you are driving L, this has happen about 5 times in the past 2 months and the car was purchased brand new 5 months ago

The engine fails to reach full operating temperature. Gas is finding its way into the oil pan and producing an overfill condition. The cabin smells of gasoline. The electronics are unreilable and are often of line

The active safety and driver assist systems randomly switch themselves on and off while in motion and are unreliable. This has happened at both high and low speeds. It has happen in normal driving weather conditions and cold with snow flurries. This vehicle fails to warm to to "normal" operating tempers especial on mn cold days. It may not warm up period on days where the temperature fall to 15 degrees or lower. On days of 50 degrees or less it warms up when driving highway speeds but in low speed situations it may not warm up at all. There is the distinct smell of gasoline in the car at times. Additionally this vehicle appears to have an oil dilution problem as the oil level registers above the max oil level line on a regular basis. In my mind these are all safety issues. I wonder if the safety systems will actually work if and when I need them. I wonder if this car is going to burst into flames as I can small gasoline in the cabin. If I smelled gas in me house they recommend I leave the premises. I can't really do with I am driving down the road. I do have a few pictures of some of the electronic warning and temp gauge but cannot download from this location. I am listing here the first incidence but know there are a few incidences.

We have a 2018 Honda CR-V touring and have recently had a critical problem with its collision mitigation braking system. On two occasions, the car has braked when nothing was in front of it. Both instances happened at dusk/evening; however, the most recent experience was the most severe. I was accelerating on a road and going about 45 mph when I passed under an overpass/bridge. Suddenly, as I was accelerating, the car braked and slowed from 45-50 mph down to 15-20 mph in about five seconds. The severe braking caused everything to fly off my seats, my seatbelt to lock, and gave me whiplash. Luckily, there were no other cars around me; otherwise, I am sure I would have been rear-ended. I brought the car to my Honda dealer and they said that the sensor may have detected the shadow from the bridge or perhaps rain drops on the road. I asked if this was a known issue and they said other dealers have reported similar cases. The only solution is to disengage the system every time we start the car. Currently, Honda does not offer another solution.

The information screen for audio and climate controls go completely out and or function erratically. The function on the driving safety systems for anti brake and anti collision also function erratically. Losing critical functions of the car while the car is still operating. I have video and more photos

2018 Honda CR-V bought new, only has 475 miles and getting collision mitigation system, adaptive cruise control, and lane keeping assist problem warning lights are on and we cannot set the adaptive cruise control or use any of these safety features. I've found a blog that has many instances of the same problems and worse to include brake failure. We are taking it to the dealer, brandon Honda, brandon fl tomorrow. This should not happen on a brand new car.

I bought a 2018 Honda CR-V (1.5L turbo engine) in August. It only has 1700 miles, but so far it has stalled on me 3 times (while driving). The first 2 times, I was under 25 mph and it started stalling. Several lights were flashing on the dashboard cautioning engine failure, brake failure, tire pressure failure, etc. The car was making pinging noises while these lights were flashing and it wouldn't drive any longer. I had no choice but to pull over to the side of the road and wait for a tow truck to take me to the dealership. The 3rd time this happened, I was going almost 40mph and it stalled again (same as before). The car was also shaking and stuttering while simply sitting idle. Honda said that the crank shaft sensor (cpk) was defective and replaced it...however, that did not fix the problem. When I asked Honda if this stalling issue was related to articles describing the ongoing problems with this make/model (in recent years), they refused to acknowledge it and said they couldn't comment because it wasn't a "Honda article". I'm sure I'm not the only customer that has come to the dealership with this problem...yet, they refuse to address that it's a serious problem. They also have not declared a recall. This is a serious life-threatening safety hazard. When the car stalled, I wasn't on the expressway, but on local roads; however, I don't feel safe driving this car anymore. I have no idea when it's going to stall again. Honda has given no assurances that they know what the problem is or can even fix it.

On 12/21/18, I went to start the vehicle and it started flashing all kinds of alerts on the dashboard. The car would not start. Door locks, tailgate would not close via remote or or by pressing the buttons for these functions. No indication that the lights were left on. 2 hours prior the car started without issue. Tow was requested. Tow truck driver gave the battery a jumpstart and told me to leave the car running for 30 minutes while the system reset. The system did not reset. Dashboard alerts for TPMS problem, brake system problem, brake hold problem and vehicle stability assistance problem continued to flash. The vehicle was parked at home in driveway from the previous evening. We moved it forward two hours prior to allow space to roll out or trash cans for garbage collection. The vehicle was purchase on July 30th 2018 and has 8322 miles on it. Never expected to have an issue of this sort with a brand new vehicle. Grateful that it shutdown at home rather than on the highway.

While driving the audio system starts beeping, the screen flashes and it makes random phone calls. I took it to the dealer and was told that they did not have a fix for this problem. I am afraid that this distraction could cause an accident. I looked online to find other owners had the same problem. This happens on city streets on the highway and while stationary. I believe this is a major safety hazard. This has happened several times.

Bought new on January 24, 2018. Driving car on freeway and at 312 miles all warning light came on, cruise and all other electronic system were down. When we stopped the car and restarted it the computer came back up and work. On the way back at 572 miles on CRV the system shut down again, requiring shutting down and starting car up to reset computer. Contacted local dealer and they said dust and weather will cause it to fail but there was no dust and clear day. After the dealer work on it said there was nothing wrong, had oil changed at dealer on Oct 18th 2018, Oct 30 2018 on I 90 East bound the radio locked up and would not work had to restart car to reboot the computer, on Nov 5th 2018 at 605pm all warning light came on again had to stop car and restart to get thing running, check oil on Nov 19th found that I have a lot of gas in oil, way over dip stick full line

I have been having issues with infotainment screen/system. The system freezes and sometimes goes black and won't respond to touches and or instructions. The car has been to the dealer several times with no permanent fix. Also, vehicle temperature remains cold. The car runs and drives for several hours and the temp stays cold with no heat in the cabin. Experiencing fuel mixing with oil and sometimes smell of fuel in the cabin is noticeable.high oil level is also present. Dealership and Honda na both informed me that I will need frequent oil changes until they find a permanent fix.

- Vancouver, WA, USA

The car has several electrical problems with the new safety features. On 3 occasions, the car has "hard braked" by itself for no apparent reason (no cars nearby). Also, the car "beeps" intermittently when it shouldn't. this indicates a problem also with safety features. The auto walk-away lock feature does not always work. The settings are for car to auto lock & it does sometimes & sometimes it does not! the mirrors light up warning that there is a car in the lane next to me & not to enter lane, it does this when I'm not changing lanes-defective also.

PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM KEATING HONDA IN CONROE, TX. SINCE DAY 1 I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY LCD SCREEN THAT CONTROLS THE AUDIO AND CLIMATE. ABOUT MID SEPTEMBER I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH IT SHUTTING OFF ALONG WITH THE LCD SCREEN BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL THAT SHOWS HOW FAST I'M GOING. DEALERSHIP AWARE BUT HAD ISSUES WITH GETTING LOANER SO UNABLE TO DROP OFF FOR REPAIR. THE SCREEN WOULD FLICKER AND SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING OR "AUDIO ISN'T RESPONDING" ERROR SHOWS UP AND BOTH LCD SCREENS GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. I WOULD START THE CAR AND WOULD RECEIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE LIKE "ANTI THEFT SYSTEM: THIS SYSTEM HAS LOST POWER. PRESS THE POWER KEY FOR MORE THAN TWO SECONDS TO ENABLE THE SYSTEM"... PLEASE FIX YOUR [XXX]! I WAS GIVEN A WARNING IN CONROE BECAUSE I WAS SPEEDING AND UNAWARE OF MY SPEED DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A DAILY PROBLEM FOR ME. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

On 3 separate occasions, the Honda hard braked by itself, almost causing an accident. If I didn't have my seat belt on, I would have been thrown through the windshield. There were no other cars around, or I could have been easily rear-ended by another vehicle. The car was moving, when it suddenly stopped by itself very abruptly and very hard. This happened on a small street with no other cars present.

Started noticing engine knocking in the first 500 miles. Vehicle only has 2,509 miles mostly freeway driving. Purchased April 2018. First drove it in April 409 miles round trip, and then again in may, same mileage and again in August. Only started driving it daily to and from work 16 miles round trip in September and it had 1600 miles. I then drove it on October 400 miles round trip and now I smell gasoline in car and it stalled on me while trying to make left turn in intersection. Also lights around mirror do not stay on. I don't think I should be smelling gas. Not sure what to do.

Car stalls when going up parking ramp, car dies at intersection, car does not sence objects when in reverse, a blue line appears when raining and I reverse obstruction view, electronics freeze and unable to use touch screen...usually happens when raining creating a safety hazard. Brakes failed (pedal froze) in reverse. Salesman said to let it happen several more times before making a service appointment. The car has been a problem ever since I got it earlier this year...there is only 4,000 miles on it and so far, they changed the battery...explanation I was given is that Honda has bad batteries. This after changing oil one week prior and service report indicated good battery. One week after servicing, the car died and had to be towed. The service people at Honda said it was all due to a bad battery. Brakes failed due to bad battery"??" still having problems, car is stalling, panel freezes, sensors don't work...salesman said no loaners available and if you wanted a loaner when you service car, should have bought a Lexus or BMW. This after I described all the problems. Really unhappy with this car. I believe it's a major safety issue..brakes failed, panel freezes, car stalls...help!!!!! note this happened as recently as 10/5/18 but really it happened several times since I've had this car. I had it towed once when a light flashed, "brake failure" and I was unable to start the car. The battery was changed - this was in August of 2018.
