The driver's side mirror repeatedly shakes at speeds above 40 MPH and is very prolific at highway speeds (especially 70 MPH). It is extremely disorientating and makes it difficult when trying to get an accurate read of surroundings when changing lanes. I had the mirror glass replaced at a dealer, which only made the issue worse. Another dealer replaced the entire mirror assembly, which seemed to solve the problem temporarily. However, it resumed less than a month later and may even be getting worse.

The Driver's Side mirror glass vibrates excessively while operating the vehicle at highway speeds. This mirror glass vibration causes distorted images to be seen in the mirror and can disorient the driver while the vehicle is in motion.

As my car was warming up, I was standing near the driver door and hear a *tink* noise. When I got into the car, I saw that my driver side mirror had a single vertical crack straight down the middle. There was no point of impact and when I first approached my car not even 5 minutes prior, the mirror was perfectly intact. For all intents and purposes, the mirror has spontaneously cracked. The dealership I took it to has refused to replace the mirror under warranty although my car is less than two years old and only has 10000 miles. The crack distorts visibility considerably. This is a known issue with 23-24 CRVs with a lengthy thread on Reddit detailing similar experiences.

Drivers side door mirror vibrates while driving. Causes issues when looking at it when checking for traffic etc. This has been reported and verified by dealer. This is a known issue by Honda and has been reported by other Honda owners. Dealer told me that Hona is aware but mirrors are back ordered and no time table for repair. This is a safety item.

When we purchased a vehicle, it appeared to have some kind of overspray and film on the front windshield. They attempted to polished or buff out the windshield which didn-??t really help. While normal driving it-??s hard to notice but when really refracts the lighting, which makes it extremely difficult to see. The dealer Tracy Honda is attempting to polish out the window. Once again, we will see if this makes a difference.

Hood shakes like crazy at sppeds over 60 MPH, brought to dealer and they said it was "Normal" and there is nothing they can do. it is shaking badly and I worry it will pop up and cause an accident. Not pleased with this at all. Second thing is it has developed a loud wind noise on passengers side "a" pillar near the windshield it seems. Going in to the dealer for them to look at that next week, as was not present when new, and we have now about 12,000 miles on it and it is about 10 months old. Other issue is the drivers side mirror shakes and vibrates lots at highway speeds making it difficult to use day or night, it is terrible. So far, not a happy customer. Lastly, the horn is really not loud enough, and also complained to dealer about that and they said "they are all like that" nothing they can do..

On August 15, 2023, the rear windshield on my 2023 Honda CRV Hybrid Sport Touring spontaneously shattered while parked in the garage. The shattered glass was primarily contained within the rear storage area, but also on the garage floor. After consulting with the dealer, I drove it to the dealership (Apple Tree Honda in Fletcher, NC) where it was examined by the service manager. There were no symptoms of failure prior to the spontaneous shattering. Resolution pending at this date.

The driver's side mirror has a distorted image. The mirror also vibrates at high speeds. The vibration appears to be in the mirror glass, rather than the mirror housing. The distorted image and the vibration makes it very disorienting, distracting, and dangerous to drive the vehicle. Passenger side mirror appears to not be impacted. Many other people report the same issue online: https://www.crvownersclub.com/threads/possible-recall-vibrating-driver-side-mirror.234801/

December 2022 two weeks after I leased the vehicle from Roush Honda, due to severe cold weather the driver side mirror cracked and I immediately reported to the dealer with photos via email communication. For 4 months I drove the car unsafely unable to use the driver side mirror, this caused anxiety, stress and dangerous especially merging on the free way and change left late. 4 months after, in April 2023 The dealer replaced the mirror to make the situation worse, and I reported immediately to the dealer. I have also communicated to the dealer management about this safety and endangerment via emails. Since April 2023 to present, while driving, the driver side mirror constantly vibrates, changes positions by itself, it is not adjustable electronically, and it is unstable. My wife and I operated and operate the vehicle over 7 months (December 2022 to present) without the ability to use driver side mirror, which caused and causes stress, anxiety and safely concerns especially merging on the free away and changing left lane. On multiple incidents almost got into terrible fetal accidents with semitrucks on the freeway caused by this unstable and un-adjustable driver side mirror. It is been unsafe over 7 months, endangering myself and my family (wife and 2 kids). Not even once, the dealer offered me rental car while they are trying to fix this dangerous issue. Please do investigate the documentations the proof is there. I am reporting this so no one or family has to go through this endangerment. The pain and suffering from this unsafe driving situation are heavy and continuous. Thanks for your help.

Brand new Honda CR-V 20223. 2 safety issues were observed: vibrating hood and vibrating driver side rear mirror. Both were confirmed by Honda representative on 5/18/2023. I have recorded footage of hood vibration. [1] For hood, when driving at highway speed (60+mph), hood visibly vibrated and vibration increased at higher speed. Dealership adjusted spacers and also found out the adhesives between the hood plate and the hood frame were not sufficient. It could have popped open during highway most likely lead to immediate fatal crash. [2] For mirror, when driving at highway speed (60+mph), driver-side rear mirror visibly vibrates and vibration increases at higher speed. Passenger-side rear mirror is perfectly fine. Dealership and Honda replaced the complete rear mirror once. The issue remains the same. Vibration over time will pop the mirror off, losing visibility impairing safety driving. Honda as of the time of this complaint 7/21/2023 stated verbally and repeatedly to me (and they recorded the phone call) that they will NOT replace or DO ANYTHING about this vibrating mirror, and that I as the consumer who paid for a brand new car will just have to accept and live with it. Honda basically on the record states that they refuse to do anything about this vibrating mirror. Both issues have been reported by others to my knowledge. Yet Honda refuses to take accountability to do the right thing.
