UNKNOWN OR OTHER08/17/2025
As I were driving down the interstate at 50 mph, I'd heard a loud POP, the sunroof exploded into a million tiny pieces of glass. When we got home, I started doing some Internet searching and found that shattering sunroofs was a longstanding problem with Honda vehicles especially, basically all vehicles with sunroofs. From some posts I was reading, I saw that many dealers were refusing to accept these as a warranty claim and some insurance companies were calling these experiences an "act of God" and refusing to pay claims. I saw at least one class action lawsuit against Honda for shattering sunroofs. I went to my dealer (where I had purchased the vehicle) all prepared to have a discussion with them about liability, but I was pleasantly surprised and angry when they said the broken glass would not be replaced under warranty. This was a brand new 2025 Honda CRV purchased with 7 miles at the time of purchased. I had to go through my insurance agency for repairs because this was not covered under Honda Dealership Warranty which I'd had purchased. Total Repairs for Parts and Labor was around 611.74. This is a major safety issue for all drivers.
STEERING,SUSPENSION07/19/2025
Vehicle: 2025 Honda CR-V Sport-L Hybrid Date of Purchase: April 2025 Date Problem First Noticed: April 2025 Complaint Summary: I purchased a brand new 2025 Honda CR-V Sport-L Hybrid in April 2025. Since the day I brought the vehicle home, I have noticed a persistent clanking or metal-on-metal noise coming from the rear of the vehicle, especially noticeable when driving over minor bumps or rough pavement at low to moderate speeds. This issue was reported to the dealer, and in June 2025, they attempted a repair by replacing the rear shock absorber and a rear rod assembly. However, the noise returned within weeks, and by mid-July 2025, it has become significantly worse. Now, the clanking sound is loud and alarming, resembling something coming loose or at risk of falling off. It has reached the point where I feel unsafe driving the vehicle, especially on highways or interstates. I am concerned that a suspension or structural component may fail, potentially leading to a loss of control or an accident. The fact that this issue has persisted despite repairs and is worsening raises serious concerns about the safety and structural integrity of the rear suspension system on this model. --- Additional Notes: The noise occurs whether the vehicle is loaded or empty. It is especially pronounced when driving over uneven roads, minor bumps, or potholes. I have checked the cargo area for loose items—this is clearly a mechanical issue. The service team initially acknowledged the issue and attempted a fix, but the recurrence suggests either a design flaw or improper rear component durability. Given that other owners have reported similar noises and rear-end suspension issues on owner forums, I believe this may not be an isolated case. --- ️ Safety Concern: Due to the intensity of the noise and the sensation that rear components may detach, I no longer feel confident driving the vehicle at highway speeds. This poses a serious safety hazard to myself.
SERVICE BRAKES07/18/2025
There were moments at certain speed like when I try to park at low speed or when I go down the hill at higher speed, the brake just doesn’t work. More specifically, as I try to engage the brake, the brake pedal just loose all the way and the brake just not engage when the brake pedal at maximum. This happens 2-3 times already, and my car is new.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM06/17/2025
-The fuel injection system failed on my brand new Honda CRV and the engine light came on at around ~3,000 miles. Since the fuel injectors were replaced, the same problems and noises occur, but the Honda service repair cannot find a problem. The fuel injectors continue to fail, erratically using too much or too little gas during -trips with MPG well below the reported 38-40 MPG. - The car malfunctioned while I was out running errands. - The problem was confirmed by a dealer who replaced the fuel injectors, but the same problems persist and the dealer hasn't fixed it. - The manufacturer representative at Honda Corporate Office Customer Care refused to address concerns and it has not been inspected by anyone except a Honda Dealer. -The engine warning light came on ~3,000 miles during the first fuel injection failure

As we were driving on the freeway, our Rear window shattered on its own. You can hear like an explosion of glass. We checked our cameras and nothing was thrown to our car. It just completed shattered on its own and we are confused as to why. It is a huge safety concern as we had a minor in the car. We called Honda and they said that they could not do anything, which is upsetting considering that we have to pay out of pocket for something that may be a defect as it shattered on its own.

AIR BAGS,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCEcrash06/06/2025
I was parking in our apartment's parking lot when I attempted a left turn to pull in front-facing toward the wall. Within seconds, and without understanding how or why, the car continued forward and hit the wall. Initially, I reported to the insurance company that I either didn’t brake or found the brake too late. However, the truth is—I do not clearly remember what happened. My mph had to be low. When the car hit the wall, several emergency systems were triggered: an automatic emergency call was made, collision alerts sounded, and the brakes activated. During the collision, my left arm was burned by the steering wheel where the Honda logo is located. The burn left a visible imprint of the Honda logo on my skin. Only some of the airbags deployed: the steering wheel and right-side window airbags were activated. However, the driver's side window airbags did not deploy. My concerns and complaints include: 1. The failure of the driver’s window airbag to deploy 2. The burn on my arm caused by the steering wheel’s Honda emblem 3. The inconsistent performance of the emergency braking system, which only works sometimes
VISIBILITY/WIPER05/12/2025
I initially thought I was low on wiper-washer fluid but dealer told me that the new system had the washer fluid distributed from the windshield wiper instead of the stationary area under the wiper. On 1st night highway drive (3wks) and after attempting to wash the windshield of the crushed bugs; I was left with a mess of smashed bugs greatly impeding my ability to see. Not only is the flow of the washer fluid slow, but the mix of wind, car movement and the low flow of fluid, in concert with the wiper movement; resulted in very little fluid actually landing within the visual field of the windshield. Most of the fluid was either left of the driver field of sight or on the lower part of the Right side of the windshield. With the cycle of wiper passes all that could be heard was the crushing of the bugs. This is not at all a feature concern discovered in my pre-acquisition car feature search or in any published report. Other than not driving at night I don't know what I can do to maintain my safety driving the necessary highways that I do. I am also left to wonder about the impact on the integrity and function of the wiper blades. Photo included is after initial wipe the accumulation became worse with each attempt to clear the bugs from the glass; they were only smeared more and more with each wipe action.
