In April 2025 my CRV had issues with acceleration. The speed reduced all of a sudden and car couldn't go more than 5 mph, so I took it to the repiar shop. The mechanic told me that cylinder #2 misfired. He replaced the spark plugs and the ignition coil. A few days later after driving for a few miles "Stop driving when safe, engine temperature too Hot" sign came up. I stopped driving immidiately and got the car towed to the repair shop. After testing the car the mechanic told me that the head gasket leaked and the coolant is mixing with the lubricant. He told me that there is damage to the engine so the engine need to be replaced. I was driving with kids in the car and I believe it compromised the safety of my family when the speed came down all of a sudden on the road and the car stopped accelerating.

Vehicle threw codes P0172 and P219e. Vehicle was sluggish and idled rough. All lights on the dash flashed and showed that most safety systems were disabled. Vehicle was taken to Honda service center and confirmed by the dealer. Dealer replaced the fuel injectors. Vehicle was less than a year out of warranty for this specific issue. This seems to be a common issue with this model of vehicle as the service center had the same model with the same issue that day.

Honda CRV in it-??s first signs failed to start. Vehicle ignition would fail to function, there was no respond. I had to shut off for 15 minutes then tried initiating, it would start as if nothing happened. I thought this was due to a battery/electrical issue. At times I thought it would not turn on and I would be left stranded where I was. Second issues began with Honda CRV not responding to gear changes, it would shake in the middle of the road, in between trips. I was praying this was not the transmission. Did have this repaired since I would regularly keep up it-??s maintenance and no further damage was announced by dealership. In the scariest of events, Honda CRV stopped in the middle of freeway! Car began to shut off, would not advance further and completely lost power. I had to safely move to the side of the road, exiting freeway very frigthtened. Only warnings signs I had other than the unfortunate events mentioned above, where vehicle failed to operate. It was the last 2 or 3 times I took my vehicle for scheduled maintenance. I began to get information from service center about extremely costly repairs my Honda CRV vehicle needed. There were no other lights, messages or warnings on vehicle dashboard. I automatically though the repairs recommended were an intent to charge me more than needed. I also did not have the amount of money required for the costly the repairs. I did receive a safety recall repair notice on or before behinning of 2024. Around January/February then again January 2025 regarding an -??Important Safety Recall.-?? I do not know why parts had a -??limited availability, -?? if this was -??IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL-?? why then did this take so long to be properly attended? The letter does state that -??safety consequences-?? of not repairing could cause engine issues. Prevent engine from starting, cause vehicle to loose drive power or stall while driving, increasing risk of crash or injury. Please help me with this issue. Thank you in advance for reading.

Head Gasket Problem The Engine would have rough starts occasionally for about 20 seconds then drive normal. Started about 1 month intermittently until diagnosis and most likely misfire. Vehicle has been inspected by two Honda dealerships stating coolant is leaking into cylinder 3 and has a sticking fuel injector with burn oil on dipstick due to low coolant. Oil change interval between time of symptoms and diagnosis was normal. The last start caused engine codes to appear and when the idle smoothed out the vehicle would only drive about 10 mph until restarted. Safety of not being able to start the engine reliably and not knowing the mph limitations after a misfire when trying to enter a road was a concern for safety.

This is with reference to 23V-858. I own a Honda Cr-v 2018 model. I got first notice about open recall of Fuel Pump module back in December 2023 follow by couple of other reminders but whenever I called Honda dealership, they said part is not available. It's been more than a year now, I got another notice that part is available and to call any Honda dealership to schedule a repair. But now when I called my nearby Honda service centers, they don't have a date available for appointment in next 30 days. I am really worried of driving it further as this looks to be an issue with Fuel pump or engine. Pelase help me file a complaint against Honda for this inconvenience and help me get this repair done asap.

On 10/28 I received a phone call from my son stating he was trying to head home when he left his parking spot and the car would no go over 10 mph and all system alerts came on. He drove the car a couple yard and then parked it. I told him to stay there and I-??d be there in 10 mins. He called a few minutes later to say the car was now acting fine. I told him to stay there because we would take the car to the dealership and leave it to be checked out the next day. I have made multiple attempts to get the fuel pump replaced to no avail. I keep being told by the dealership that the part is not available and they would call when it becomes available. I have called at least four different times to address this issue. My son drives this car down a four lane highway with a speed limit of 60mph. It has been concerning to me that the fuel pump may fail and a tractor trailer may come upon him and cause a crash due to the lag of our vehicle. I have also taken the car to the dealership and left it overnight because all the alerts come on and cycle through. I receive a call the next day from the dealership who is unable to recreate the issue. As a result of the recall and cycling of system messages, I believe the fuel pump to be the issue since symptoms aligned with the recall. I was informed two days later the issue was the head gasket and I was informed it would be better to replace the entire engine. I-??ve since read all of the concerns with the 1.5 liter turbo engines and believe the faulty design created this safety hazard. I submitted a case to Honda on 10/30 and have been contacting them since in an effort to resolve the issue. On Thursday 11/14 I asked that the case be escalated and have yet to have anyone from Honda contact me. I have contacted them at least 10 times over the past three weeks with absolutely no response.

Unknown My car wasn-??t getting any gas stuck in traffic. Have complained to the dealership about the recall and the problem I was having I was given the run around about replacing the fuel pump

- Durant, MS, USA

Issue: Car loses power while driving. Event: Started car, drove down a hill about 1.5 miles. Tried to accelerate, lost all power, CEL started blinking. Limped car to safe location but could not accelerate over 5 mph. Next start, all vehicle warning lights flashing on dashboard. Code reader threw a P0310, P0300 (engine misfire). Problem reproduced/confirmed by independent service center. Preliminary diagnostics (swapped ignition coils and spark plugs 1&2 to 3&4, reinspected, misfires still on 1&2) suggesting possible fuel injector faults. Recommended working with Honda directly for further diagnostics because fuel injectors are replaced as an assembly and often require programming by a dealer, also problem seems similar to recall issue. Concern: Vehicle has 42,000 miles; fuel injectors should not fail at this mileage. Received a Honda safety recall letter in February 2024 NHTSA Recall Number: 23V-858/Honda Campaign number KGC. Called Honda after unsafe driving event (loss of power while driving). Honda stated that the recall for my VIN was rescinded. However, the problem seems very likely related to this recall.

Blown cylinder head gasket required replacement by dealership. Per the dealership, the car displayed failure codes P0302 and P0303. Dealership covered 80% of the cost as "good will" but also mentioned this is a "known issue." The Check Engine Light had displayed just prior to the gasket failure. A day prior my wife and son described the vehicle as "shaking" when the car started (likely related to the engine misfiring as indicated by the P0302 and P0303 error codes found by the dealer) Safety was at risk as wife was driving vehicle when the gasket failed - resulting in a loss of power to the engine and a potential risk for an accident in traffic. Luckily the problem happened less than a quarter mile away from our home and my wife was able to navigate traffic back to our home at a low rate of speed.
