On 2/7/2020 I was operating my crv, made a left turn into driveway of tavern/restaurant, 1080 e. Philadelphia ave., gilbertsville, pa. 19525 and pulled into the first parking space about 10 feet from street. I slowed down to almost a stop approx. 2 feet from concrete parking block, my foot was on the brake and engine accelerated very high causing the vehicle to jump the parking block and striking the restaurant wall. Approx. 8 feet from parking block. My wife asked me what I was doing and I pointed to my right foot on the brake. No one was hurt and very minimal damage to wall. There was a police report to douglas twp. Pd. I spoke to piazza honda dealership where vehicle was towed to and manager said that I most likely had my foot half on brake and half on gas pedal. I also gave same story to allstate insurance. I requested that hey check the black box in vehicle and both said they could not. My vehicle was repaired after $9.000.00 estimate was written. I was so afraid to drive the vehicle again and I traded it in to piazza honda without leaving their business after it was repaired. I have been driving for 60 years and never had my foot half on brake a nd half on gas pedal. The brake and gas pedal are separated by at least 3 inches. If it was on both pedals, I am sure the brakes would have screeched. The vehicle was in the shop at piazza honda 4 days prior to the accident for pa. Vehicle inspection and during the exam they told me that the left front strut was leaking and they installed a new one. The vehicle was only 8 months old with 11,000 miles on it..
2019 Honda CR-V acceleration complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 15 of 15, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle has been observed to undergo unnecessary emergency braking operations during the use of the adaptive cruise control system. The vehicle seems to be sensing something that's not actually present and this causes it to brake rapidly. The problem is not repeatable when driving the same route under similar conditions. This is an ongoing problem that has been brought up with the honda dealer but as yet remains an unresolved intermittent problem.
My honda sensing system has serious and dangerous malfunctions. When driving, the brake assist will beep and flash "brake" at me when there are no obstacles anywhere near the vehicle and on more than one occasion has actually braked and slowed the vehicle substantially. Additionally, the lane departure warning comes on when I haven't left the lane, and also will brake when it is not only unnecessary but very dangerous, such as when I was driving in the fast lane on the freeway with cars traveling behind me.
Under certain lightning or glare conditions, the cr-v's automatic braking comes on. It recently happened to me on three occasions. In the first it was on the t. R. Bridge, leading into dc, at 7 am, when the sunlight from the east was causing glare. The cr-v braked automatically while going at about 45 MPH when there was no vehicle in front of mine. In the second and third instances, it was when I was on I-66 east on the overpass over the capital beltway at 8:30 pm traveling at about 55 MPH. The cr-v's "brake" warning came on when there was no vehicle in front or next to the vehicle. The glare from the overhead lighting for the highway signs is quite strong in that location. This is a serious safety issue, since the vehicle can brake without warning in the middle of a highway at highways speeds, potentially causing the driver to lose control or to be rear ended at high speeds.
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 honda cr-v. While driving 70 MPH, the vehicle shook, vibrated, and began to decelerate. Also, the electric parking brake, transmission, brake system, brake hold, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation system, road departure mitigation system, blind spot information system, and auto high beam system warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 800.
