I noticed the car shook at first in park or at a light. I made Honda aware 1 month in at 25K miles and was told it was a common flaw with my year make and model and there was nothing to be done. It progressed over 1 year into vigarously shaking while in reverse. I was driving on the road and my car completely cut off on me without warning. It would restart, the ac blew hot, then cut back off. I was almost hit from behind while traffic kept going. I got out of the car for safety to have it towed to the Honda dealership. While off the tow, the car started back up again and went into drive. However, the check engine light was still on and the shaking was still ongoing. Honda told me they cleared the codes and could find nothing wrong. I made them keep the car. It has now been two week. After about 5 days they told me a list of the following problems: 1.engine harnes1.engine harness had s had corrosion due to coolant leakage 2.speed sensor and both transmission warmer coolant hoses with clamps needed repair 3. Transmission side mount 4. Evaporator canister vent shut valve stuck closed 5. front engine mount is collapsed My warranty company refused to repair issue #1 and #2 due to the corrosion. Honda charged me $1800 to repair the problem. The service manager mentioned in a phone call that my car was salvage while reading an email from his district manager. I can not find out if this is in fact true and the sold me a certified pre owned care under false pretenses. I want to make others aware.

I have read there is a Lawsuit on this issue. Why isn't there a recall so my dealership can fix or replace. Wasting lots of money on this issue they can not find.

I am on my third car battery for a car that is only a little over five years old. I am replacing the batteries every 2-3 years which seems a bit ridiculous. So far, I am out $330. I have tried both oem and non-oem batteries, and nothing seems to make a difference. The first time it happened to me, I was stranded in a store parking lot. A family member came and jump started my car, then followed behind me as I drove to the dealer to get the battery checked and then later to an auto store where I replaced the battery. The guy that replaced my battery said he has the same issue with his crv. The second time (about 2 years later after the first incident), when I went to start my car after driving to a store, the car had trouble starting and when it finally turned over, my dashboard was lit up like a christmas tree. The check engine light, awd, vsa, low tire pressure, and electronic power steering lights all came on. After googling the issue, and seeing that this is a very common problem for honda crvs, I knew that it was likely the battery. The place I went to checked the battery and sure enough, it needed to be replaced again. I tried calling honda to ask about it, but they denied that it was even an issue. However, a quick google search revealed that a class action lawsuit was recently filed for 2017-2019 honda crvs. Although the issue likely goes back much further, the statute of limitations prevented earlier models from being included. This is likely a honda issue, where something was not properly designed. This is a safety issue, because without a properly functioning battery, important safety features might fail. The driver is also at risk of getting stranded somewhere. My car has had intermittent random trouble starting the whole time I've had it. (there's no pattern to it).

Vehicle stalls while reversing in a parking lot while in motion. I believe this to be related to honda/service bulletin 18-072 as attached. This has been observed 3 times. On cold start after about 5-10 seconds the engine dies. Additionally no diagnostic error code or check engine light illuminates giving no indication there is a problem. The car does start after this happens although it has in the past, not the last time this issue occurred, I did heave to choke the engine to get it to start. During the last incident the ambient outside temperature was ~70f. The car was started and put into reverse within the first 5 seconds of ignition. The vehicle was on a flat surface during the incident. No accessories were running except for the headlights. I was not turning but backing up straight into a parking spot before loss of power and control.

Takata recall 2.4l vtc actuator replacement I have had a few hondas with this engine it is very common in this engine the vtc system relies on proper oil pressure and allows the vtc actuator to make continuous intake valve timing changes based on operating conditions. Intake valve timing is optimized to allow the engine to produce maximum power. If an error occurs, the vtc system control is disabled and the valve timing is no longer variable. This should be repaired sooner rather than later to avoid a potential check engine light possibly accompanied with rough idle and/or lack of power or stalling
