2020 Honda CR-V: multiple warning lights

Filed Oct 31, 2026 · Acceleration, Electrical · NY

I am filing this complaint regarding a recurring and dangerous loss of engine power in my 2020 Honda CR-V, currently at approximately 80,000 miles. For an extended period, my vehicle has repeatedly experienced multiple dashboard warning lights illuminating simultaneously, followed by severe loss of acceleration. During these episodes, the vehicle enters a reduced-power state and can only travel approximately 10 mph. This creates a serious safety hazard, especially on highways and in heavy traffic, where sudden loss of acceleration could cause a collision. I have taken my vehicle to independent mechanics numerous times for these same issues, but the problem has never been permanently resolved. During one evaluation, a mechanic identified engine-related diagnostic information and showed me Honda Technical Service Bulletin 18-025, concerning misfires and air-fuel imbalance. I subsequently brought my vehicle to Atlantic Honda in [XXX], where their technician diagnosed faulty fuel injectors and quoted $1,800 for replacement. Both Atlantic Honda and Honda Corporate denied warranty or goodwill assistance, stating that my vehicle exceeded the 70,000-mile eligibility limit by approximately 10,000 miles. On XXX, my vehicle again experienced severe power loss in [XXX], limiting acceleration to approximately 10 mph. I was unable to safely continue driving and had to leave my vehicle in [XXX], where it now requires towing. This is not an isolated incident but a recurring problem that has persisted despite multiple visits to mechanics. I am concerned that faulty fuel injectors may represent a broader safety defect affecting other 2020 Honda CR-V vehicles. I respectfully request that the federal safety agency investigate these repeated failures and determine whether additional vehicles should be included in any applicable safety recall or corrective action.

I am the second owner of this vehicle. Upon purchase, i chose to purchase all extended warranties so that I had minimal out of pocket costs to maintain and repair my vehicle. I had the vehicle maintained regularly at LaFontaine Honda in Dearborn. A couple days before my scheduled service in December 2025, several warning lights became lit on the dash. I called the LaFontaine Honda, expressed my concerns and asked if I could bring the vehicle in immediately. I brought the vehicle in on December 3, 2025, and after several hours of diagnostics, it was determined that the engine needed to be replaced. Vehicle mileage was 121,766 and I was informed that the warranty expired at 120,000. Tried to call Honda for assistance and they stated there was no assistance available, I would have to pay for the repairs. This Dealer serviced my vehicle the entire time that I owned it for 2 1/2 years. I purchased all extended warranties, and they would not help me. They only said they would put me in another vehicle put the negative equity in my new car loan. I was then ghosted by the service manager and sales manager. I had to go elsewhere and pay $8,595.76 for a used engine. I paid for the extended warranty and when I really needed it, Honda failed me.

On April 13, 20026 while traveling on a divided highway at about 70 mph, the car suddenly experienced rapid de-acceleration, similar to if someone slammed on the brakes. At the same time all dashboard warning lights began flashing. The car had failed and couldn't be driven. The Honda dealer in Rochester Minnesota said the turbocharger had failed. This was a very dangerous situation as it posed a real risk of being hit from behind by others who were still travelling at high speed while the failed car was dramatically slowing and trying to get off the road. This an unreasonable risk of injury and death not only to the driver and occupants but also to the general public and other nearby drivers and occupants. The Honda dealer in Rochester inspected and repaired the failed turbocharger and flushed the system and oil as required. The charge was $5,042.41 to replace the turbocharger and $736.48 to flush and change with fresh oil. This is without tax. Full invoice is available upon request. The Honda dealer inspected the car. No police report was filed. The car was towed back into Rochester by AAA. There was no warning lamps prior to the incident. The cars maintenance was up-to-date and has only about 60,00 miles. For a [XXX] old car, an engine failure that creates a serious risk of injury or death to the driver and public would suggest a recall is necessary to maintain public safety and make owner's whole.

Twice this has happened after the car is running for a bit all the lights cycle through as errors parking assist, hill assist, power steering, etc... Took to a dealership was told it is the fuel injectors and gas leaking into engine oil. Had to have my fuel injectors replace and get a new oil change due to gas in the oil. I see there is recalls for 2021-2025 but 2020 are also having the same issues. I have only had this car for 2 years and had to buy all new fuel injectors.

While driving, multiple warning lights suddenly illuminated on the dashboard and the vehicle immediately began running sluggish with significantly reduced engine power. The vehicle was unable to maintain normal driving speed and was operating below the posted speed limit, creating a potential traffic hazard and increasing the risk of a rear-end collision from faster-moving vehicles. I was able to carefully drive the vehicle home, but the condition persisted. After arriving home, the vehicle required multiple attempts to start, indicating an ongoing issue. I scanned the vehicle using an OBD diagnostic tool and retrieved diagnostic trouble code P0087 (Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low), indicating a malfunction in the fuel delivery or fuel pressure system, which may involve the fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, or related components. There were no prior warning signs before this incident; the warnings and loss of performance occurred suddenly while the vehicle was being driven under normal conditions. The sudden reduction in engine power created a safety concern due to the inability to maintain normal traffic speed. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, dealer, police, insurance representatives, or other third parties, but the vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request.
