While driving, both low-beam lights failed in the same moment. Hi-beams remained functioning. Earlier in the week the low-beams had flicked off briefly. Bulbs had been replaced within previous 6-months. Similar to honda fit recall and previous crv investigation low-beam investigation from what I have read online.
Excessive burnouts and shorting of driver's side low beam headlight. Replacing bulbs every six months on my 2006 honda crv. Occasionally, bulb would work intermittently after replacement. Now, even new bulbs don't work. In last instance, both low beams appear to have burned out at same time (fortunately during daylight hours). Updated 08/24/11 *bf the dealer informed the consumer they often have to slightly bend the head light housing with the bulb to get the proper metal to contact, which was the case with the consumers head light.

I bought an honda 2006 cr-v new in 2006. In oct. 2009 I started experiencing multiple low beam headlight bulb failures. This started after the expiration of the warranty. Since that time I have replaced the left and right bulbs 7 times. This bulb failure is spontaneous and when it happens at night while driving, it presents a very dangerous situation. There have been a number of complaints involving honda cr-v low beam light bulb failures in the federal safety agency data base. This situation is not unique to my vehicle. Honda has refused to recognize this problem and did not supply a solution. I feel a recall would be valid in this situation since driving with one or no headlights presents a safety issue. I have replaced all the bulbs at my own expense.
Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda cr-v. While driving at an unknown speed, the low beam headlights stopped functioning. The contact was able to continue operating the high beams headlights but the low beams would not turn back on. The contact replaced the headlights himself. The failure occurred intermittently about nine times. During some of the failures, only one side of the headlights would stop functioning. The failure mileage was 60,000 and the current mileage was 91,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Own 2006 honda crv, had the right headlight go out and now the left headlight is out, replaced the left and still not working, looked on internet and found numerous complaints about the crv headlight problem, called honda dealer and they did not acknowledge any problems but the complaints on the internet carry out that the crv has a headlight problem, when I bought the new headlight bulb from an independent parts house they said they sell a ton of these and can't figure out why honda does not offer a solution to minimize this problem.
I purchased a honda certified used 2006 cr-v in june 2010. It has been a great vehicle until september 2010. Around labor day weekend, my driver's side low beam headlight went out. So went to wal-mart and bought a new set. Went ahead and replaced both at the same time. Two weeks later, the passenger low beam went out, replaced it. Three week after that, the drivers side went out while driving home from work at night, replaced that one. Three weeks later the passengers side again went out. Replaced it. Now, the first week in december, the driver side was out, again!!! I am very careful to not touch the bulb itself when replacing it. I've also used the dielectric grease to help make a seal on the connector. I believe that there is something else wrong electrically. I am taking my car to get brakes in a couple of weeks, so I will ask them to take a look. Obviously, the problem stems further down to the vehicle itself. At $25/bulb, it's rather expensive.
I own a 2006 honda cr-v and the driverside low beam headlight bulb keeps burning out. I didn't do the work myself I had a mechanic do it and he doesn't know what's up.
I have had to replace the headlight bulb as many as 6 times since we bought the car new in 2006. The last time was 11-25-09, during a heavy rainstorm. I also suspect that the daytime running light option is responsible for the short lifespan of the bulbs.
Replacement of head lights on 2006 honda cr-v after rain storms. Three headlights in less than a year.
I purchased a 2006 honda cr-v 2 years ago. My trade in vehicle was a 1997 honda cr-v. Since shortly after purchasing my car, I have had a recurring problem with the headlights blowing out, and sometimes the dome light inside the passenger area of the car. The headlights are blowing out on average, every two months. During the last year or 2 before trading the 1997 cr-v, I had similar problems with the headlights blowing on that vehicle also. I purchased my car from hendricks honda in charleston, sc. I have most of my service, including oil changes, done at that dealers service department. I have repeatedly asked that they investigate the problem, and have been told repeatedly that there is no electrical problem with the car. I visited superior honda recently in orangeburg south carolina. The service department manager there told me that in recent months, he was aware of at least one cr-v owner and several owners of civics who have come back and forth to their dealership because of similar problems with headlights blowing out. Hendricks honda advised against contacting the corporation and said it would likely refer the matter back to them. I commute to work 120 miles round trip daily. I have been stopped on numerous occasions by police officers and highway patrolmen regarding one of my headlights being out. I now carry copies of the service requests showing that I reported the problem with the headlights during my visits to the dealership. I show these to the office as proof that the problem is recurring and I have been attempting to resolve it. I have been unable to get the service department at the dealership where I purchased the car to take the issue seriously and/or to try to determine the source of the problem. I have check to see if there are any recalls related to this problem, or any service bulletins, and have found none. Post script: there are numerous "incident dates". The one listed is the most recent.
Left and right turn signal lever does not return to the off position during lane changes - no loud alarm alert to driver that directional signal is continuously operating. Many other makes and models produce a loud audible tone to alert the driver of such dangerous conditions - but the honda does not.
