Harsh or hard shifting by model year
What owners say
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,
The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact received notifications of the federal safety agency Campaign Numbers: 24V763000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) and 24V744000 (Steering); however, the parts to do the recall repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact stated that the gearbox made clunking noise intermittently while driving at various speeds. The vehicle occasionally surged forward and unintendedly changed lanes independently. There was no warning lights illuminated. The dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 14,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available for the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V763000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); and Parts distribution disconnect for the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V744000 (Steering).
My CR-V Lane Keep Assist will pull my vehicle one way or the other jarringly violently, and will overcorrect itself the rest of the time. The result being that I have nearly totally stopped using the feature. Recently, though, I have noticed a sticking point just off of dead center when steering in either direction- at any speed. The worst part of this issue is that it causes turning to be unsmooth because the wheel doesn't turn smoothly. At any speed, I can notice the weighting of the steering wheel when I hit the (replicatible) sticking point- and then it is as if the vehicle "skips a few steering teeth" because it cause the wheel to turn a little more quickly as if to catch up to where I had intended to point the tires. This issue has persisted to the point that I googled to see if other owners were having this issue, and that's when I discovered that the federal safety agency had added the 2023 CR-V to an existing complaint involving Honda Civics with the same steering components. I wish to lodge my complaint in the hopes of making Honda and the federal safety agency aware that this issue is also affecting 2024 CR-Vs. I am extra frustrated because I feel like my front suspension/steering components are clunking where that was not an issue over the early life of the vehicle. For reference, I have put 13000 miles on the vehicle since purchasing 07/27/2023.
The steering started sticking, jerking and making a popping noise about 5,000 miles and now at 6900 miles it is getting worse. When going straight it is the most noticeable as it feels like the steering binds and then when I adjust to the left or the right it frees up and jerks so that I have to overcompensate and then it jerks in the other direction. At speeds below 10 mph if I move the steering wheel left and right it makes a clunking sound. Randomly during a turn the steering sticks. All the above happens with the lane assist both on and off. When it got worse the dealer said it is the electronic power steering but the part is on back order so there is no immediate fix available.
