Honda CR-V Hybrid

"A screw worked its way into the edge of one tire ... required tire replacement ... took four trips to the dealer to get problem analyzed and tire replaced."

"Only own one 2023 Honda hybrid"

"Choppy steering - entire steering rack had to be replaced"

"Twice, at different locations, I made a U-turn and the car system stopped working. I put the car into park and restarted the vehicle. I and my wife were happy that there wasn't any traffic coming our way. I took the car to the dealer. The first time I was told that they could not find anything wrong, but they replaced the battery. The second time the dealer again told me there wasn't anything wrong, but I should not use the B shifter. I said the B shifter should not have been put on the transmission, they just smiled. I don't use the B shifter and use the car sparingly."

"The electric motor seldom performs by itself, even at idle. I am now told that one has to drive it 10 to 15 thousand miles per year for the electric motor to get charged enough to perform as advertised. If I had known that, I'd have bought a plug-in hybrid car."

"When it was very cold, the display said it was too cold to operate"

"When quick acceleration response is needed, getting on highway, avoiding, passing, going uphill- the CVVT downshifts and revs @ high rpms above 4000 while not providing actual power to the axles (i.e. you out your foot down and it makes a high pitched soudlnd and you dont go anywhere, its dangerous)"

"The transmission failed"

"Received warning about transmission on display and took it in and the dealer did a software update. Trouble returned in a week and the dealer replaced the transmission."

"I frequently have to adjust the temperature setting depending on outside weather conditions. With my previous 2020 CR-V I could just set it and leave it alone."

"The front window defroster is a poor design where it does not keep the front and side windows clear in cold weather without using very high heat and fan speed. Had it in to Honda dealer and they said that is the way it works, or doesn't work!"

"Gas portion of the engine experienced complete failure on the highway as Cylinder/piston cracked after only 4 months of ownership. After repeated phone calls by both us and the Honda Dealershp...Honda spent one month of searching for a replacement engine. Honda finally did install the new engine under warranty. And after 2 weeks of no automobile over the holidays, they agreed to give us a loaner car for 2 weeks. HOWEVER, the car has experienced significant drop in combined mileage since the engine replacement at 4,500miles. Average fuel efficiency dropped from 34mpg combined to 27mpg with largest drop on the highway. HONDA USA customer service has been incredibly difficult to work with and the customer service contacts uneducated about their own product. For example, I was asked how big the fuel tank was when asked to calculate the mpg manually. After 3 months of constant calling, they sent a factor technician to evaluate the car. He took it from Dealership and drop it for 2 days. Neither the Dealer nor I were informed of what was done or not done.....but customer service called to inform us that the car worked great with combined fuel efficiency of 40mpg.....which exceeds the sticker AND greatly exceeds what we were getting when the car was new (34.5mpg). Honda USA customer service handled this poorly that after being a loyal Honda customer....4 Honda's over last 20years, we decided to replacement my aging Honda Pilot with a new Toyota Grand Highlander. My wife will likely never buy another Honda based on how they handled"

"The gasoline engine began to Start roughly during the handoff from the electric motor by the eCVT. I took it to the dealership and they said one of the fuel injector valves was frozen in the open position. The replaced the complete assembly and all has been well ever since."

"Periodic significant vibration/ shuddering at speed. Still a mystery. Going back to the dealer for second attempt at finding source"

"the power steering issue was a known problem by Honda, as research showed over 530,000 reports of the power steering locking up on turns at higher rates of speed. But it took some effort and protest to get Honda to replace the electronic power steering. They would never really own up to the fact that there was a problem. It took about two months to fix. They did agree to provide me a comparable SUV while my car was being fixed but it did not come without a bit of a screaming match. Interstate driving became very worrisome as the steering would be begin to lock up during turns and it often felt like you couldn't adjust or bring it back to a comfortable driving position. Traveling through quick turn adjustments and rain was frightening."

"I went on vacation for 3 weeks and found the car dead without power and had to have the car jump started. After this several of the sensors including the AWD gave warnings. This just occurred I am still dealing with the problems I will have to take the car in to have the sensors reset."
