2014 Honda CR-V fuel system problems

Filed Aug 20, 2026 · Fuel system · UT

Since this car has been purchased several times, it wouldn’t start. We thought the battery was dead. We’ve had it serviced several times while it was under warranty and at different mechanics with no avail. However, a Honda certified mechanic had told me it’s showing the same symptoms as the fuel filter recall and I just want to make y’all aware that this is happening in the 2014 as well you will be driving and then suddenly there’s no power you can’t turn the ignition to turn it back on trying to steer safely off the road is ridiculous and it’s usually on a highway. Even when you press the gas pedal to rub up the engine only once has it came back on. All the mechanics I’ve talked to said that sounds like fuel injection or fuel issue to the ignition, but they don’t seem to find a problem through the OEM reader. This has happened and all seasons so far as well. Please please please investigate some of this. I do not want to drive fearfully with this going on and I know I can’t be the only one I’ve searched it online. I love this car. It was my mother‘s car. It’s a 2014 and I just broke 100,000 miles on it.

Purchased our 2014 CR-V [XXX], used one owner, 55301 mileage. Very little driving the next three years due to the pandemic. Summer of 2023 we were driving from Buffalo to [XXX] , first 30 miles, severe hesitation, amber lights on, until reaching 70mph. Hesitation stopped but lights stayed on. By August the TPMS indicator, malfunction indicator lamp and other lights came on, again. We reset according to the manual, but this was just the beginning of this process happening over and over again. During dealer testing Code PO 341 came up. Had it tested at another place before taking it to West Herr Honda and was told needed Timing chain replacement with VTC. This was done at a cost of $2232.06 with car mileage of 63159. We were sad and disappointed. Research shows that Honda is very much aware of over 500 plus recorded problems with the 2014 CR-V not to mention unreported problems. The model should be recalled before lives are lost. Car still hesitates but evidently due to a different problem.

Vehicle grinds on cold startup, every single time. Vehicle also rattles on acceleration. Took it to mechanic and was told timing chain and vtc actuator needed to be replaced to the time of well over $2000. After research, I have seen that this is an ongoing issue with all 2014 honda crvs but honda has refused to take responsibility for this issue. This problem leads to engine failure and honda is continuing to build these vehicles with defective parts. The technical service bulletin out does not take responsibility. I am asking that honda establish a recall for the vtc actuator and timing chain to prevent resulting engine damage from these defective parts.

Mileage 20630. Had just returned home and parked in the driveway. Sudden strong odor of raw gasoline and vehicle quit running. I found a large pool of gas just ahead of the left rear wheel. I moved the left rear seat to expose the fuel pump housing and found a pool of gas around the top of the gas tank at the fuel pump. I found a hole had worn through the hard plastic fuel line about 6 inches from the pump caused by rubbing on the underside of the rear seat metal frame. I repaired the holed area of the fuel line with the proper hard plastic fuel line repair kit.

Engine caught fire in my 2014 honda cr-v while I was driving to work the morning of january 19, 2017. I purchased the cr-v new in early 2015. At the time of the engine fire there was 49,585 miles on the vehicle. The only work ever completed on the cr-v were timely oil and filter changes, and tire rotations. There was not any suggested or required work that was not completed. There was nothing unusual with the car, no noises, no odors, and I was the last person to drive the vehicle prior to this day. Forensics report concluded that the fire originated in the engine compartment in and around the fuel system. At 8:50am on thursday morning january 19, 2017 I left my home in nj to travel to work 14 miles away. In leaving home the cr-v started normal. I was about 10 minutes into the typical 45 minute drive. I was driving on a two lane highway. I was slowing down to about 10 MPH to merge into one lane. I noticed light white smoke coming in from the passenger side vent. I then noticed more grayish smoke coming from the right side of the engine hood. I pulled over off the highway onto the shoulder. There was nothing unusual on the panel of the car, no lights, no gauges, the temp was normal. I called 911 at about 9:01am. The fire department had the fire out in about 12 minutes. The cr-v of course was a complete loss.

The vehicle experienced a significant fuel line leak. After having it towed to dealer they advised an animal had chewed through the fuel line. They see this issue repeatedly. Honda has coated the fuel lines with a soy-based insulator that attracts animals. This is a safety problem.
