*Median odometer reading when the problem happened, where owners gave one. One complaint can name several problem areas.
Steering
While driving under 30 mph in clear and dry city conditions, my vehicle displayed a cascade of error messages on the dashboard. Within a mile of the initial alert, the vehicle suffered a complete loss of both propulsion and steering. I brought the vehicle to a stop on a slight incline. When I released the brake and tried to press the accelerator, the vehicle failed to propel forward and instead rolled backward unexpectedly down the incline. Simultaneously, the steering wheel became completely rigid and would not turn. All error messages disappeared the following day after the vehicle sat, and propulsion and steering seemed functional. No prior warnings or issues had occurred.

When the incident happened, I felt the car give a big shudder and make more noise while switching…

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…

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…

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 doesnât 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.
