2019 Honda CR-V: screen or infotainment failure

Filed Apr 18, 2025 · Electrical · FL

2019 Honda CRV infotainment issues, screen randomly goes blank while driving causing the passengers of the car to have no ability to adjust the various settings (climate, radio, navigations, lighting of the counsel, etc.). This has been ongoing since the first year I purchased the car. Recently while driving the entire screen went blank and a very loud static like noise was coming from the speakers, I could not turn the radio off, I could not adjust the volume. I have to find a safe spot to pull over and shut the car off for a few min. I purchased my car new from the Honda Dealership and have brought it in multiple times due to these electrical issues and they keep telling me it is because I am not using an apple cord to connect OR my apple cord is old. This is not true I purchased brand new cords from apple directly and still the issues keep happening. Also in the last 2 months the rear tail lights will flash for no reason. Car parked in the garage over night the next morning I go out and tail lights are randomly doing quick flashes every few mins. This is a daily occurrence now and I worry someone will think it is a blinker while I am driving but it is not. I have seen several other online forums with the very same issues I am having and Honda wont do anything about it. There is something wrong with the electrical system in these cars.

The infotainment screen starts glitching out on extended trips. It constantly beeps and flashes on the screen as of a button is being pressed. It also will not allow you to turn the system off to remove the distraction. This happened on a trip to Chattanooga in July 2022 and was 'fixed' with a software update. It happened again on [XXX].

Infotainment System Will randomly glitch. No touching or pressing of buttons beforehand. And no access to do anything while glitching. Infotainment System Will spontaneously beep like you are pressing buttons, go from light to dark at different speeds. Very distracting while driving. Especially when nothing can be done to fix. Once car is turned off and restarted it does seem to “most of the time” make it go away for a bit. Nor rhyme or reason as to when it will happen. Hot or cold, AC or heat etc.

The SUV would not start after not being driven for 2 days. Roadside assistance was called and they tested the battery and it was fully charged, but the SUV wouldn't start. The SUV was jump started and the alarm started going off and the head unit had to be restarted.

Issue with screen brightness started 2 months ago, initially I thought may be I accidentally touched screen and now I realized it is problem with screen itself. While driving on highway infotainment screen brightness lowers and highs and blackout by itself and 3 to 4 times screen was blacked out on reversing which I consider as safety issue. Issue will start if you are driving for more than 20 minutes. Dealers failed to inform about the issue when I bought car.
