The sunroof has rust along the paneling area that I can see. Not sure when the rust developed, I'm sure while stationary and in motion.
On 5/27/2020 at 11:20 pm my 2014 honda crv was parked in front of my home and suddenly combusted.first smoke appeared on the driver side then flames. It was last driven around 9:45pm that evening without issue. The vehicle has no history of physical or mechanical malfunction. The incident set off my ring bell camera since it motion sensitive (will provide footage if requested).
Driving the interstate I-35w on saturday june 13, 2020 in minneapolis, mn we heard a loud bang, sounded like a rock hit the car. Being close to home we pulled into the driveway but did not see any visible damage on the sides of the car nor underneath. Two days later opening the ceiling door to the sunroof to find out that the glass had a big hole in it. We were not near an over pass. We were in a construction zone but no where close to any construction vehicles. Not sure that construction was occurring at the time. All we can think of is either a rock fell from the sky or the class imploded under the heat of that day.
I have a customer that has a 2014 honda crv (VIN provided) and 2 years ago we replaced the rear hatch outside handle. It would not open in cold weather. It failed again and we replaced it again (no charge to the customer as it was the same problem as before). Honda only warranties their parts for 12 months. This is a know problem which is fixed with a new outside handle. It seems to me this is a safety concern as there in no way to get into the rear cargo area from the outside without this outside handle working. Honda has refused any to help in any way.
When the outside temperature is below freezing, the rear hatch will not open. The latch mechanism has been replaced under warranty, and the problem persists. Many others have reported this problem, with multiple latch replacements having not solved it. It is a design defect. If one were in a collision and the doors were jammed, people could not be removed through the hatch. If one had a flat tire beside the road, the spare could not be accessed. If medication were needed, it could not be retrieved promptly. The date mentioned below is only one of the many times this has happened when we have visited cold weather areas. It happens every day when the temperature is below freezing.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 honda cr-v. While driving between 35-40 MPH, the vehicle trembled. The failure subsided only during deceleration. When accelerating, the trembling failure returned. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who advised the contact to take the vehicle to the dealer. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was 73,000.
The sunroof shattered while driving on the tollway. This was preceded by a loud sound above my head. There was no evidence of object impact from the vehicles in front of me. I have a dash camera and showed no abnormal activity or objects flying towards the car. There was no damage anywhere else but the sunroof. Luckily the shade was closed or I would've been showered with broken glass.
Rear door latch won't open in cold weather. This started when the car was just 2 years old. Now 3 1/2 and needs replacement.
The trunk latch sticks and causes you to be unable to open your trunk. Over the past couple months the latch started to stick which I chalked up to the cold weather causing it to stick but now it doesn't open at all.
My wife was driving to work at 65 MPH on the highway, 8 pm, temperature approx. 75f in milpitas, ca. The sun roof was completely closed and the inside sliding cover was closed(thank goodness) when it suddenly shattered.she did not see any object impact it. No overpasses, light traffic. On closer inspection the next morning, I observed the remaining large pieces were flared outward, as if it had exploded.( please find photos) I have since become aware that these types of failures are becoming much more frequent.(repair receipt also attached)
Shattered glass sunroof , occurred while driving. Shade guard prevented glass from entering car. No foreign object found that could have caused the sunroof to shatter.
Air is getting into the passenger side probably through defective window seal. May be door glass separation from regulator. Has been this way for three years. Honda won't deal with it.
I was parking in a parking space behind a parked car in front of my car. I applied the brakes, and my car lunged forward with a tremendous acceleration and hit the parked car in front of me. At least, almost $5,000 in damage was done.
I entered a parking lot to take my grandgirls to a wildlife refuge exhibit. Drove down driveway, turned left off of driveway to park car facing west which would be facing another car facing east. Turn was immediate, so brakes were applied. Car did not slow down or stop . . . Rather, it accelerated with a lurch! I was laying on the brakes; they did not engage until frontal contact pushed facing car out of my way, and I was able to throw car into park. No action when engaging emergency brakes. Of course, documented as an "at-fault" accident by my insurance company. (may I personally mention that I have been driving 48 years and have never had an "at-fault" accident - haven't even hit a garbage can!) returned car to honda dealership to check out braking/acceleration. The response from the service representative was, (and I directly quote), "we couldn't find a problem, but, when you experience this problem again, please have it towed to our dealership!" I have owned 14 subsequent hondas, but will never own another! That crv took its own free will as I tried my best to control it - nothing doing! Updated 10/07/15*lj updated 11/08/2017
9 am april 16 police knocked on door several hondas in the parking lot had been broken into nd driver airbag stolen. Car did not start had to be towed to southhonda for repairs. I have a $500 deductible and I want honda to reimburse me plus fix the faulty alarm system. I am retired $500 is lot for something I did not do thank you
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 honda crv. The contact state that the top edge of the front doors were extremely sharp and caused the contact to sustain a laceration to the head. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician stated that they were not able to alter the design of the vehicle. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 500.
My honda crv was broken into while on vacation in florida. I was only about 300 feet away from the car but was not notified by the alarm. I came back to see glass all over the floor, my personal belongings gone from the car. As a previous owner of a newly purchased honda odyssey, I felt that the car had alarm as the key has remote lock and and unlock functions and the car even sounded a familiar arming sound when remotely locked. When I went into a dealer in florida to inquire why the alarm did not work, they told me that the car had passive alarm, which means that the alarm should sound if the glass is broken. Upon returning to new york, I went to the dealer where I purchased the car and they told me the car has no alarm, and that the familiar sound is just to indicate to me that all four doors are locked! At no time during the sales transaction was I told that the car has no alarm or that I needed to purchase an alarm.
