The honda crv 2010, I have had issues where the awd has not kicked in and the car has gone into slids and oversteer where it did not stablize the car from sliding. Going about 10 MPH and the car slid in the snow, the tires were good and it seems the awd is not working properly. In europe honda issued a software upgrade for this issue but blatentley refuses to issue the proper software upgrade for the awd system for this car. Here is the link a https://www.carthrottle.com/post/attention-all-honda-owners-your-4x4-crv-might-not-be-a-4x4-after-all/ after this posting honda issued and update for europe but not the us. Honda is putting drivers lives at risk by not updating the awd system for not only honda crv 2010 models but all future models. The awd system has failed on multiple occasions.
Cr-v 2010 excessive oil consumption. Bought the car new. My husband drives the car to work every day for an hour. We start hearing a cranking noise coming form the engine in the cold mornings. We follow recommendations on oil changes and use synthetic oil. I check the oil regularly and add some when it needs it. I was amaze at how much oil it burn. I have had problems with excessive oil use and check engine light on two (2) dealerships recommended to replace timing belt timing chain tension and cam shaft. 62,000 miles car was driving very bad so I did the repairs $ 1,212.40 . The dealership is telling me that's "normal". I have a mini van toyota with 273,000 miles never chance the timing belt/chain still running. Honda of america saying that burning a quart of oil every 1,000 miles is normal. That is unethical. I have done the 1,000 mile oil consumption tests when I went to the dealership and they said that my crv can burn up to a quart of oil every 1,000 miles and is nothing that they can help me. Now the car start smelling oil and gas when I check the oil level. They send a letter but honda is not willing to do the repairs.
My car engine stalled mostly in ther morning at 50 MPH or above. It lasts about a few minutes, and disappears. It happens in the afternoon again. It seems that egine speed and transmission are mismatched. I reported this several times after I purchsed it; dealers updated softwares under factory warantees. The problem has not been fixed. My car has now about 32,000 milies. I am not sure if this has anything to do with the recent recall on engine oil ring problem.
The vehicle makes a straining sound, as if it were in first gear while driving. The steering makes a loud noise when turning in either direction. I had dealer check it and was told the hydraulic fluid pump needs to be replaced, fluid appears to be leaking.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda cr-v. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the vehicle decelerated and suddenly accelerated up to 80 MPH independently. The brake pedal was depressed and failed to respond. The contact was able to avoid an accident. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure and the VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 11v395000 (power train). The failure mileage was 60,000.
Vehicle was rear-ended by a faster vehicle. The impact forced the transmission into "park," which automatically locked the doors, trapping any occupants. Had there been a fire or water submergence situation, there could be unnecessary injury or even death. Vehicle door locks need to be re-designed to let occupants escape in an emergency.
Engine or transmittion begines to stall in the morning when driving at 50 MPH or higher on highway. It does not happen in the afteroon. I tried to warm up the vehicle for 5 mins before driving, but the simpton remains the same. The software upgrade was done by dealers a couple of times, but the problem continues.

Gears began to crunch and the car began to shake. Slowed down at a light and lost the power steering. Pulled over and the engine stalled. Could not re-start for 10 minutes. Engine then re-started, traveled approx. 10 meters and stalled. Re-started again - no further problems. 2 similar occurrences, 2 months apart. For the first event, the car went off the road. On each occasion the dealership stated they had checked everything and there was nothing wrong with the car. Took it for a second opinion. Dealership had not checked recall 11-001 (january, 2011). They checked it, but again found no issue.
2010 honda crv. Consumer states unintended acceleration *tgw the consumer stated as he/she slowed down with his/her foot on the brake to park, the vehicle continued in motion. Before the consumer realized what was happening, she/he had already hit a fence, which ripped the bumper from the vehicle. The consumer received a recall notice and believed the recall was the reason he/she experienced the failure.
Acceleration is still sluggish after updates. Problem with engine is not fixed as it is probably a poor design. Updates made the situation better. It ran best after the updates. First had problems before it was a year old.

The RPM's would fluctuate. There was fluid leaking from the vehicle and there was a vibration upon acceleration. Updated 01/19/12
Transmission constantly hesitates to downshift when more power is required, even if I press accelerator all of way to the floor. Many time it places me in dangerous situation, particularly while merging on the highway.
I bought crv ex 2w in april, 2010. I noticed a driveline vibration either from transmission or engine when I drive on downhill highway and underpowered in 40-50 MPH. It seemed that 5th gear refused to downshifted. I reported it in few days, but the dealer told me that nothing was wrong. I continued to have the same problem; I took it to another dealer twice. One time the dealer mechanic noticed that something was not right, but later they told me that nothing was found wrong. I saw service bulletin to upgrade engine software, so I took it to the dealer in march 2011. They said that they did not know of the bulletin. I showed the copy of the bulletin issued on nov 2010. They acknowledged it, and upgraded the software. It improved a little bit of the underpower problem, but did not fix the drive line vibration in driving on downhill highway. A few times, I was afraid that the engine would fall apart from the car. The worst time of it is when I drive it first in the morning though I warm up the engine enough.
2010 honda crv bought new. We have a driveline vibration noticed the day we took it home. We have 5 repair orders for the same problem with no resolution. 1 of the repair orders was done by an independent garage who noted the vibration and what he thought needed to be done but no repair was made. We are working with a lemon law attorney but don't feel like we are on the right track. I am a auto technician and not much of what I said was done. Honda is now trying to walk away from us. The lawyer said she filed a claim with honda 2 times and it was "denied". I don't understand that since the massachusetts lemon law, m.g.l. Ch 90 7n 1/2 states that it is presumed that the lemon law is satisfied if either of the following requirements is met: 1. The car was presented for repair on 3 or more occasions for the same nonconformity within one year or 15,000 miles from the date of original delivery of the car and the problem still exists.. We clearly fit this but the 1st time around with the lawyer she said we did not qualify and said " I understand you have experienced "issues" with your vehicle but some of the "issues" you have experienced do not fall under the lemon law. Concerns related to brakes, rotors, tires, wheels, alignments, cosmetic issues, wear & tear- are all items specifically excluded in your warranty booklet and although the dealer may decide to perform repairs at no cost under "good-will", they do fall within the lemon law so the manufacturer is not liable and therefore will not make you an offer of settlement. " this is not a "wear and tear problem if the car is new!!!!
The 2010 cr-v has very sluggish acceleration from low speed and from a dead stop. We have a driveway that slopes down, and we have to floor the gas pedal to go up the drive way and even then it goes at a snail's pace. It is difficult to turn into traffic with out having to floor the gas pedal and even then, it can still be inconsistently sluggish (you never know how fast you start going or if you will start going). We have been in a number of near miss situations before we realized that since we can't judge whether the car will actually respond to the gas pedal, there can't be any cross traffic if we are going to pull out. I have contacted the dealer who acknowledges that there is a problem and that one of their service engineers has the cr-v and found the same thing, however, nothing is being done to mitigate the problem. Is going to take traffic accidents and deaths before honda does something about this issue?
Extremely sluggish acceleration from low speeds and from a stop. It is awful to try to merge with traffic on entrances of interstates and highways and just crossing streets that require decent acceleration. This is a hazard to me and those coming on the main roads as well as vehicles following my entrance into traffic. We have connected honda customer service and the dealer. Both have acknowledged there is a problem, but as of now have no corrections. We were told that the car is performing as designed. Are they waiting until there are deaths associated with the performance of the 2010 crv like toyota did?
My 2010 honda crv rolls back while on an incline in drive. Dealership says that is customary with the hondas. It rolls back and will only stop when you press the accelerator.
