2013 Honda CR-V: ABS light or ABS activating

Filed Oct 24, 2019 · Transmission · 50,988 miles · WI

I started my crv on 10/23/19 and started on my way to work. When I got about 200 yards I noticed that the check engine light, ABS light, and the transmission fluid lights were. I called schlossmann honda city milwaukee, wi, asked for service department said I wanted to make an appointment. I explained what lights were on the dash and indicated they just came on this morning. They said that I could drop off the car that afternoon. Dropped off car on 10/23/19 at 3:45pm. Left jessica lange called me back at 5:00pm and told me the timing belt had to be changed because it was stretched. This happens. Cost to have this done was $1988.34. I only have 50988 miles on my crv. The cost was outrageous. I am 58 and have owned many vehicles. I have never had to replace a timing chain with this few miles. I think this is ridiculous. Especially because honda new about this problem in previous models and never fixed it. I do love my honda but I will never buy another one and will get rid of this one before I reach 100,000 miles. Hopefully the replacement timing chain will last that long.

The ABS module stopped functioning for brakes and airbags. The dealership currently has the car and does not know why it malfunctioned. Their explanation is that the ABS module went bad and it is not drivable because the brakes might lock and possibly set off the airbags. I am concerned this may effect other vehicles as it is a costly fix. The bill is currently $2,400 and they are unsure if that will fix the problem, or if it will cost more money to figure out the issue.

On 2/10/2014, around 8:50 am est I was alone and driving to the office when my car skidded and I lost control. Due to the momentum the car had gained, it went into a free spin. Though this car is equipped with awd and ABS, it still could not correct the skid and went out of control. It dashed against a tree on the pathway from the passenger side. This impact resulted in driver side air bags to deploy, however it exploded instead of inflating. This incident has resulted in injuries to my hand, neck and back. Recently I have heard recalls from honda related to faulty air bags, however did not find any open recalls for my vehicle...updated 02/25/15 *bf updated 9/22/2017

While driving on a snowy road, approximately 20 MPH, I attempted to brake. Brake pedal would only push in part way and clicked loudly. Car did not respond at all to brake pedal being pushed. I tried repeatedly to press the brake pedal but was met with only very loud clicking, pedal did not appear to go in as far as normal and no response from car whatsoever by slowing down. Debated whether to push parking brake in or try putting car into lower gear when I braked yet again and finally car responded. Braking was obvious and immediate. I went back to the same stretch of road and attempted to recreate problem, but car clicked quietly and braked immediately. Am concerned that ABS system was fighting for control and therefore car did not brake at all. Roads were snowy and a bit slick, but not icy. This occurred over an area of about 100-150 ft.where I attempted repeatedly to brake and had no response whatsoever. I am scared to drive my car again in snowy weather. I have owned many vehicles, including those with ABS and have driven in the snow and have never had a car not respond at all. It was like the brakes were not engaging.

Twice in a day and while driving in the rain for the first time, four malfunction lights appeared in the dashboard and stayed on. They were the awd, ABS, vsa and eps amber lights. I took pictures of the display in the dashboard. The next day the display had cleared and I took the vehicle to the dealer. I showed one of the pictures to the service advisor. After 2.5 hours I was told that they could not duplicate the trouble and that the trouble was possibly caused by slippage in recent weather. This is unsettling as it makes me wonder if I will continue to have this problem on rainy days.

I was driving and all of the safety lights came on ,on the dash board, antilock brakes,traction control,vehicle stability. This is the second time this has happened.the first time the left front ABS wheel speed sensor was replaced at the dealership. The car had less than 300 miles on it .the second time, with less than 3000 miles on it , all of the lights came on again on the dashboard and I had difficulty stopping the car. The brakes were very difficult to use, they seemed to get stuck and were making an awful racket.corrosion was found in wheel speed sensor connector harness side and the engine harness was replaced. I lost the use of the car for 14 days as the front of the car ,grille, fender ,steering wheel ,dashboard and other parts has to be disassembled and the replacement parts were not available to the dealership.
