My CRV TOURING 2018 has a little over 23,000 miles. I started the car and all of the safety lights come on as malfunctioning. I could not get the vehicle to back up out of the garage. I never put the brakes on. I finally was able to get it out of the garage and to the dealership. Two of the personnel at the dealership said they had never seen that many lights on the dash come on and some they had never seen. This is the second battery that has been put into the car and the charge was good. The car was looked at for several hours. They did not know what was wrong and reset the system some how and I went home. The paperwork said I told them the car was hard to start which I never said. Three days later upon starting the car all of the same lights and warnings came on. This time I was able to back up with no issues. I went straight to the dealer and asked them to do an ECU check. They said it could be the fuel injectors; however could not guarantee that would solve the problem with all the lights coming on. Had the car all day and came back with about 7 codes. I had to ask what the codes were as they had not been written down on my statement. I wrote them down and looked them up that night. Two of them were under warranty. The mechanic did not know the two codes were under warranty and did not look into it further. I took the car in for the third time and had the codes updated and checked. One was for the injectors which they said failed. The other was a check for spark plugs, etc. to help eliminate the source of problem. Again, they said the problem was the injectors and the cost to repair would be $2,200.00. I have requested a Good Will Repair which was over three weeks ago. Honda North America said the District Manager would be handling it and then I was told that the District Manager would let the Service Manager at Honda dealership handle it. That person has not returned my calls. I am not driving my car much and really need it badly.
2018 Honda CR-V fuel system complaints
Page 15 of 21: complaints 401 to 430 of 608, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While driving on a busy interstate in the rain my car completely lost power and started sputtering. It felt like it was out of gas, however, the gas light was not on and I had about 1/4 tank of gas. I was only able to make it to the on ramp and not completely off of the interstate. Once the car was shut off it would not restart. We had it towed to the dealership where we still have an extended performance warranty. It was a Saturday night so I did not hear from the until Monday morning. The service tech said they believed it was out of gas but I explained there was no warning and shouldnt have been out of gas. When the tech called back he again said it was out of gas and that was it so I pushed to do more. The manager called back the next day and stated since i have an extended warranty they will run diagnostics. That came back it was the fuel pump module. This has been recalled on other 2018 Honda CRV's but my VIN was not included. The tech acted like he was not even aware there had been a recall.
My car dashboard went crazy, all lights lit up and various problems flashing. Took my car in and today they are telling me a fuel injector problem will cost $2,500 to repair. That they have never seen this. However, when doing research the 2017-2018 Honda CRVs are having issues with this and yet a safety recall hasn't been issued.? This is my 3rd Honda and will probably be my last. Very disappointed in this one. Nothing but issues. Tire pressure monitor system is screwed up as well that started after it was a week old. If a vehicle is having issues, why isn't a recall been made?
The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, he detected a fuel odor inside the vehicle. The contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that he scheduled an appointment for a diagnostic test with the dealer. The failure was not yet diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 31,000.
All warning lights come on as a result of this issue. Vehicle has under 100k miles on it. As a result, when operating vehicle, many safety features are unable to be used: Tire Pressure Monitoring System Adaptive Cruise Control Braking System Failure Power Steering Failure Vehicle Stability Assist and a myriad of other warning lights. This makes this vehicle, purchased for many of these safety features, UNSAFE and a hazard. Fuel injectors should not be failing so early in the life cycle of a vehicle. Speaking with Service Advisors at the dealership this is a manufacturing issue with other models, but not with this model. Research on the internet and Honda forums indicates this is a KNOWN ISSUE which Honda REFUSES to make right. Instead consumers are forced to pay outrageous repair fees and usually only at their dealerships due to the specialty of the parts involved. Honda should be addressing this manufacturing issue rather than forcing consumers to pay for their mistakes with a virtually brand new car.
Car suddenly lost power and dash lights came on while I was passing a large truck, legally, on rural highway. Was unable to pass truck and had to fall back and thankfully no vehicles were coming in opposite direction. Was a pass with caution area with dotted line. Had to have towed to dealership, found to be issue with turbo. Research shows know issue with vehicle, see the federal safety agency service bulletin 19-032, but Honda states does not involve my VIN number, though exact issue, model, and year. I think this issue should be expand to include all vehicles of same make, model and year.
My 2018 Honda CR-V loses power and acceleration when driving, sometimes on the freeway. In addition, the computer system goes haywire and lights up all the engine failure lights. I've taken the vehicle to a mechanic four times for this problem, twice to a Honda dealership; the diagnosis each time has been a faulty fuel injector that spews gasoline into the oil. According to Consumer Reports, this problem has been common with the 2017 and 2018 models of this vehicle, and the Honda Co. agreed to extend the warranty on these models to cover the repair of a common problem among the models in these years. However, this visit to Honda of Bedford, Ohio, the dealership has kept the vehicle for four weeks because the Honda corporation refuses to repair a fuel injector that spews gasoline into the oil pan. The fuel injector was faulty but Honda won’t take responsibility. It’s a fire hazard as well as it could cause an accident when it loses power. especially in a high traffic area. My request is to compel the Honda Corporation to cover the cost of this repair in that the fuel injector in may of the 2017/2018 models were faulty from the factory.

Turned on vehicle and all warning lights come on as a result of this issue. Vehicle has under 100k miles on it. As a result, when operating vehicle, many safety features are unable to be used: Tire Pressure Monitoring System Adaptive Cruise Control Braking System Failure Power Steering Failure Vehicle Stability Assist and a myriad of other warning lights. This makes this vehicle, purchased for many of these safety features, UNSAFE and a hazard. Fuel injectors should not be failing so early in the life cycle of a vehicle. I"ve had many vehicles and have never had this type of issue and especially not so few miles. Research on the internet and Honda forums indicates this is a KNOWN ISSUE which Honda REFUSES to make right. Instead consumers are forced to pay outrageous repair fees and usually only at their dealerships due to the specialty of the parts involved. Because they are sold in a kit and all must be replaced essentially this smells like a money grab by Honda. Its deceit and makes one question if Honda should continue to receive ones business going forward.

I was driving and then the car wouldn't go, seems like a fuel pump issue. There is a recall on fuel pumps for this year but according to Honda and this site mine is not effected. I disagree.
While driving on the highway the service engine soon light started blinking and the engine lost power effecting my ability to keep up with traffic. After coming to a stop the light stopped. When I started the engine back up there was a lot of white smoke from the exhaust. I checked the oil level and it was at least 1/2 inch above full and smelled strongly of gas.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 honda cr-v. The contact stated that while driving 65-70 MPH, the vehicle loss motive power, jerked and then stalled. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the coils and spark plugs however, the failure recurred.

Primo honda (777 industrial rd, san carlos, ca 94070) was made aware of the failure however, the contact was informed that the VIN was not under recall. The dealer declined to sell the contact the fuel pump part due to a possible liability issue. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and confirmed to the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The manufacturer declined to provide information on which fuel pump part was needed. The contact related the failure to the federal safety agency campaign number: 21v215000 (fuel system, gasoline). The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.
I was driving on the san mateo bridge , car began hesitating and jerking up and down and lost power engine light came up. Took it to pep boys they diagnosed it and said it needed coils and spark plugs , about $ 1000 later took the car home and continued to do the same thing, took it back to pep boys and said there was a recall on that car for that problem . Took it to primo honda and they say there is no recall on my VIN # even though is clear that is the reason they are having a recall on those cars for that very same reason.VIN:[xxx]year:2018make:hondamodel:cr-vlast updated:may 11, 2021number of open recalls:0......year:2018make:hondamodel:cr-vlast updated:may 11, 2021number of open recalls:1 open/close allprint 2018-19 cr-v fuel pump motor safety recall expansion took it to another better qualified mechanic and he says is a problem with the fuel pump.

For no apparent reason all dash warning lights (forward collision warning, etc.) begin flashing when the vehicle is being driven (one right after the other). The first time this happened the warning lights stopped eventually. About one month later the same thing occurred but the warning lights would not quit. Took it to the dealer and they replaced the fuel injectors and fuel pipe at a cost of $2029.00. This car only has 32,746 miles on it. From what I understand fuel injectors should last between 50,000 and 100,000 miles. We also had to replace the tires. Of course it was not covered under warranty.
2018 cr-v all warning light came on after starting car in preparation to go to work. As I was pulling out of driveway car was not getting any power car fluttered and I smelled gas. I turned it off then restarted it was ok. I took it to the dealership.

Few days later light came back on went back to dealership then was told I needed the 4 fuel injectors $1300 to replace them. Did some research online to find that several people are having the same issue. While these lights are on there is no cruise control, lane assist or anything. Called honda and there was no known issue. Dealership suggested maybe honda will pay to fix issue... Well, of course no such luck.
3wks feb23, 2021 I purchased a 2018 honda crv I was looking at some customers that complaining about oil deletion in the engine, I'm very worried because I do get a gas smell inside my car, from the exhaust and when I check the engine oil dipstick. It doesn't show as a recall but it is very concerning and I'm worried the vehicle would burst into flames.
2018 honda cr-v with 44000 miles on it. All the warning lights started scrolling across the dash screen while idling in a parking lot. Restarted the car, and the warnings continued to scroll. Brought to honda dealer, and diagnostic showed that all four fuel injectors needed to be replaced, not covered by warranty, cost $1,000. The vehicle is well maintained, and always use quality fuel. I have never experienced problems with the fuel injectors in previous vehicles.
I was on highway i35 heading to dallas driving 70mph. Suddenly my check engine light started blinking and my car completely shut down automatically when I was in the middle of 18 wheelers and other traffic zooming by me honking due to my speed drastically dropping. I had to coast across 3 lanes of heavy traffic to get over to the shoulder. I was terrified I was going to get slam into by one of the many semi-trucks. It was terrifying. Called and had my car towed. Cleo bay honda (kileen, tx) said it was a misfire of one of the fuel injectors. When I picked it up the following week, I got back on the freeway to head back to georgetown and the samething happened again. I again was forced to cross 2-3 lanes by coasting to get over to the shoulder. They now are going to replace all 4 fuel injectors, but I have lost all confidence in this car's safety. I do not want to take it on the freeway again, fearing the 3rd time I will be killed. I dodged two bullets with this car, why should I be forced to dodge anymore? Very scary! This car was programed to shut down when a misfire occurs but they fail to consider where the driver might be when it happens. Twice it happened when I was on a busy freeway and I lost all speed with cars/semi-trucks going 70-75mph past me and I am forced to cross 3 lanes of traffic to get to a safe location. The fear that happened the first time was still frightening and to have it happen a second time was terrifying and I don't feel safe anymore driving it. If not me someone will be killed or seriously injured due to this defect!
I have a 2018 honda crv ex. The check engine light came on with the emissions system problem warning at times, and at other times, all warning lights came on simultaneously. At times it drives fine while one or all these lights are on, but twice when I was driving 30-40 MPH, I have lost power, having to pull off to the side of the road.
Driving car on slight uphill grade a a misfire occurred causing a flashing check engine light. Throttle control was defeated by design and the car came to a stop in a lane with no shoulder and semi trucks behind me. Was able to cycle key a few times and throttle control was restored until car misfired again and same thing happened again. Talked to local honda service department and was told that what happened is by design, to protect the catalytic converter in the event of a misfire..this is a dangerous design flaw. There are other ways to protect the catalytic converter and still leave the car running with at least partial power. Many manufacturers simply cut fuel delivery to the cylinder that is misfiring, leaving you less power but still safe to drive.. This problem is a simple fix for honda with a reflash. This dangerous situation was created by a simple spark plug issue on one cylinder.
About a month ago, I was parking my crv and all of my dashboard warning lights came on. My cruise. Lane keep assist other features are completely disabled when this happens. My dealership states I need fuel injectors. I have done research on this problem, and honda is very aware of this fuel injector problem. They actually put an extended warranty in place on the powertrain to remedy this . Unfortunately the powertrain warranty does not cover fuel injectors.on one occasion. Nov. 3 2020, my car stalled while going 70 miles per hour on the highway. Afterwards I smelled a strong fuel smell in my car. I have smelled this odor several times, however honda says this is not a safety issue. I bought the car jan. 2020. It had 89k miles on it. I did not think this new car would need an extended warranty. So honda wants over $1100 to put fuel injectors in. I have read online about the many issues with the 2017 and 2018 crvs. The dream motor is a problem and honda knows it. I guess it will take someone dying before anyone will pay me any attention. Honda says this is not a safety problem therefore I am assuming it is safe to drive, as I have to have my car. I am a nurse and travel on my job. I have no cruise, lane keep assist, lane stability or any of those features. I dont know how this car will pass inspection like this. Please help me. Google problems with 2018 crv. .....honda knows all about it. I have already filed a complaint with them. Please advise if seeking legal counsel will be beneficial to me. Thank you.
2 problems, when vehicle is moving, audio display panel glicthes in/out, brightness goes from bright to dim to completely blacked out display without being touched. Glitches out like that for several minutes, completely uncontrollable and cannot use your audio display/radio nothing. While stationary car would not start. When you attempt to start car display says brake problem, and then parking brake problem, no audio display lights up nothing, engine start button blinks red and car goes off completely, smelled gas during this attempt to start car. Jumped started the car took it to local auto parts store to check car battery, battery has more than enough charge. Attached pics and video.
I keep smelling gasoline and having to get oil changes well before 5,000 miles. I believe that gas is getting into the oil. I have complained to the dealership service department and have been told that there is no fix available. I fear that the engine is going to give out soon.
I parked my car in my garage with half a tank of gas on sunday. On wednesday I went to start my car to no avail. I called roadside assistance to jump start my vehicle. This worked, however my gas was now on empty. The vehicle had been locked, no lights on in an enclosed garage for 3 days. I have only used it for short drives since march due to covid-19.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 honda cr-v. The contact stated that that gasoline leaked into the engine oil and caused engine oil dilution. The contact stated that there was evidence of gasoline on the dipstick. The vehicle was taken to honda motor work (1475 south barrington road, barrington, il 60010, (847)-381-8900), where the contact was informed to monitor the oil level and to have the vehicle inspected every 1,000 miles. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 12,000.
There is a very strong gasoline smell in the engine oil. The oil level is much higher on the dipstick than at the last oil change, indicating gasoline is somehow making its way into the oil. There is a gasoline smell in the cabin on every trip. Car is owned and operated in atlanta, ga.
I smell gasoline inside the car after I start the engine. The gasoline smell is not present on initial start up but happens when I run errands which requires many stops. It usually happens when the temperature is below 40 degrees. It is necessary to open windows to ventilate the cabin. I have also lost the sensors three times and my screen has gone black requiring me to reboot. I have talked to technician three times since owning this vehicle and they have had it in the shop twice for diagnostic testing. They are unable to determine the cause. I have gone online and this is a common and known problem with 2017 and 2018 crvs. Why haven't I received a recall notice to have the gas dilution fixed?
Stalling while driving when stopped the fuel level is high, known honda oil dilution problem checked by east coast honda myrtle beach s c they replaced the fuel injectors pipes and oil again for 3rd time. Continually overfull crankcas. Honda has an open case also #10008784 and dealership is working on the solution but it still exists! I already have a the federal safety agency case # 11277446 but I can not locate it and telephone clerk was snotty about me giving her the info and me asking for specific instructions.
Approximately 2,200 miles. Driving normally at about 35mph. Car started severely misfiring. And quickly started losing power. Car would not accelerate over 9 MPH..warning lights came on. Pulled over immediately. Visually checked motor including oil dipstick. Strong smell of gas and oil level was above normal. Gas in the oil. Had to be towed to dealership. I was informed by the honda service tech there was gas in the oil and plugs were fouled. Oil dillution problem.
