2024 Honda CR-V transmission problems

Filed Nov 5, 2026 · Electrical, Engine · MN · crash

Was drive down a 3 lane road when all kinds of error message/lighs/indicators lit up the dash board. Eventually the vehicle lost power (No go power) and I ended up coasting to a very slow speed. I then tried to get out of the lane with my emergence lights flashing by turning left to try and get off the road at an intersection. Another vehicle then crashed into me causing serious damage but no injuries. NOT GOOD.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 MPH on the highway, the vehicle lost automotive power. The vehicle failed to properly accelerate but remained running. The vehicle was restarted and returned to normal operation. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be inspected; however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure or determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 23V588000 (Power Train); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 3,000.

my 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid regarding the vehicle's stability when shifted into "Park." Upon selecting "Park" and releasing the brake pedal, the vehicle exhibits an excessive rocking motion, surging forward and backward approximately four times before coming to a rest. This is not the standard "settling" common in automatic transmissions; it is a repeated oscillatory movement that suggests a failure in the parking engagement or a lack of coordination with the brake system. This creates a safety hazard, as the vehicle does not feel securely anchored, increasing the risk of a roll-away or injury to passengers exiting the vehicle.

My 2024 Honda CR-V EX is experiencing a premature head gasket failure at approximately one year of ownership. A head gasket is a long-life component designed to maintain proper combustion sealing and prevent coolant/oil cross-contamination. This type of failure should not occur on a new vehicle and suggests a potential manufacturing or engineering defect in the powertrain. Before diagnosis, the vehicle displayed symptoms consistent with gasket integrity loss, including rough running, shaking during acceleration, reduced power output, inconsistent engine temperature, and abnormal vibration. These issues indicate possible combustion leakage, coolant intrusion into the cylinders, or compromised cooling system performance. Given the low age and mileage of the vehicle, the failure does not align with normal wear. Possible causes include improper factory installation, uneven torque application, defective gasket materials, engine block or cylinder-head surface irregularities, or thermal management issues that could cause localized overheating or warpage. Any of these would point to a systemic defect rather than owner misuse. A failing head gasket can lead to engine overheating, stalling, power loss, oil/coolant contamination, and eventual engine failure. These conditions present clear safety risks if they occur while the vehicle is in motion. Because this is a major powertrain failure occurring far earlier than expected, I believe this issue may affect other 2024 CR-V models and warrants investigation. I am submitting this complaint so the federal safety agency can review whether a potential defect exists that could require further action to protect consumers.

Driver of the vehicle was traveling about 50 miles per hour, Multiple warning notices appeared on the dashboard ranging from Vehicle Stability Assist System Problem, Collision Mitigation Braking System problem, All Wheel Drive System Problem, Electronic Power Steering Problem, Electric Parking Brake System Problem, Brake System Problem, etc., approximately 16 error messages. The front end wobbled, Brakes were mushy, Steering was difficult as if the power steering ceased working. Was able to safely pull off the road. Vehicle was towed to dealer for diagnosis and repair. Dealer pulled codes from the ODB port and it displayed multiple warnings. See attached list of codes from the Dealer Dealer checked multiple systems but was unable to diagnose the cause. Dealer re-set the codes and sent the car home. This could have been a significant safety issue if the event had occurred under different circumstances. Request investigation into Honda to determine if this issue has occurred elsewhere, determined a root cause, and if the manufacturer needs to issue a recall for all affected vehicles.

I purchased a 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid (VIN [XXX] ) that was represented as having only an airbag replacement. A certified Honda dealer inspection has revealed multiple serious safety defects: •Driver seat belt buckle malfunction (DTC B0050-F0): The seat belt does not function properly and cannot be repaired without replacing the floor harness. This violates FMVSS 209 (seat belt safety standards). •Rear differential/ESC fault (DTC C1851-18): The differential shows signs of prior impact damage, metal shavings were found in the fluid, and the gearbox must be replaced. This affects AWD and electronic stability control (ESC), which is federally required under FMVSS 126. These issues were not disclosed by the selling dealer. The vehicle was sold “as-is,” but selling a car with a defective seat belt and ESC system creates a major safety hazard. Repairs are estimated at $8,692.92 on a vehicle with less than 2,000 miles. This vehicle is unsafe to drive and should never have been sold in this condition. The vehicle was purchased from Central Autohaus, Dallas, TX, on [XXX]. The dealer only disclosed an airbag replacement but did not disclose the seat belt defect or impact damage to the power train/ESC.

This 2024 Honda CRV only had 24k miles and experienced total transmission failure. I was traveling and started experiencing problems. Two factory Honda dealers (Dahl Honda rhinelander and a Duluth Honda dealer) turned me away for repairs, even though they said it was the CVT. The cvt would make loud clunking and clanging noise. During driving it would hesitate and then surge creating a drivability safety hazard. Finally OMalleys in Wausau said cvt needed to be replaced. Dahl and Duluth Honda had me continue driving despite have factory original warranty and extended bumper to bumper 100k which covered car rental. Disappointed in Honda quality and potential safety issue,

I have a 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport model. On two occasions within the past 3 months, I have attempted to start the car, but when I did so, the dashboard lights, including all the error indicators lit up and flashed, the alarm went off, and I couldn't drive the car. In both cases, I called Roadside Assistance. While waiting for the tow truck, we were able to shut off the car and alarm by putting the car into "accessory mode," (pushing the ignition button without a foot on the brake.) But when we then tried to start the car normally (pushing start button with foot on brake) the electrical light show resumed and alarm started up all over again. Both times this happened, by the time the tow truck arrived (1-2.5 hours) the car had "rebooted" so we just drove home. The first time this occurred, the Honda dealer had just performed the recall repair to the steering gear box 2 days before the first electrical failure.
