On XXX brought my 2010 Honda CR-V to Honda Westborough in [XXX] to have driver's side rear tire for leaking air and the TPMS light had come on briefly in the past but it was not on permanently when I brought the car in for service. The dashboard had no light on. They informed me that the tire was "leaking from puncture" and that they will "plug the tire." They charged me $39.95 to reseal tire even though it didn't work. They gave me an appointment for Wednesday, XXX. I was not informed that I would be paying the parts ahead of time on XXX. Then was informed they were not able to reseal the tire and they also mounted a temporary spare tire without prior authorization or notice, returning the car in a physically altered and restricted driving state. He also never mentioned that the TPMS sensor was also corroded. I drove with the spare tire until XXX. The TPMS light remained on with the spare tire. XXX they told me that they were not able to put the TPMS sensor back on because it was corroded and since I couldn't afford to purchase a new one they put in simple valve and I will have to drive with the light on indefinitely. The advisor told me that I would just need to keep checking the tire air with my eyes. Their invoice with services provided was very vague and lacks transparency. Authorized dealer Honda Westborough knowingly made a federally mandated safety system (TPMS) inoperative during service in violation of 49 U.S.C. § 30122(b) and Massachusetts Attorney General Auto Repair Regulations (940 CMR 5.00). The vehicle's TPMS light was off upon arrival, but the dealer removed the sensor, replaced it with a standard rubber valve stem, and released the vehicle with the safety warning system permanently disabled." This prolonged usage directly caused the rear differential to overheat and suffer total mechanical failure four weeks later, requiring a $2229.84 repair at an independent shop.

My 2010 Honda CR-V is subject to a rear subframe safety recall. The issue was initially addressed by a dealership approximately 1.5 years ago, which stated the vehicle was safe to drive. I disagreed. At Honda’s direction, I took the vehicle to another dealership, which confirmed the defect and determined the vehicle to be unsafe in October 2025. I was told the vehicle was unsafe to drive at this point. The vehicle has been out of service and has remained at the dealership since October 2025 and remains unusable. Despite this, Honda has not provided a buyback offer or any timeline for resolution. It has now been over six months since the vehicle was deemed unsafe and over a year and a half since the issue was first identified. Honda has failed to provide a remedy within a reasonable time for a safety recall, leaving me without a usable vehicle.

Cruise Control Significant safety. 2/13/2026. The first time I experienced my car made sudden high-speed acceleration, brain starts scrambling, what's going on? Ok cruise controls on, turned it off, tapped brake. Now with Cruise Control Off, I had to keep in contact with the accelerator to manually maintain speed. I had to pay much attention to my speed. Was towing a very small travel trailer, about 750#. The above actions stopped the sudden acceleration. Got my speed back under control. Thought since the problem was resolved quickly along with me disbelieving what just happened, I turned Cruise Control back ON. So, I got my speed back to where it should be and put Cruise Control ON. And, again it didn't happen right away, but when it did, it was exactly the same sudden acceleration. Vehicle to a Honda dealer next week. No warning signs or sounds, either before or after the incident, both occurrences.

Got this vehicle about a year and a half ago at full price from local dealership. It looks like it has been pieced together with many other hondas. The check engine light has been on ever since. The car keeps yet no camera. Just tried to get inspected. So far charged 2500 but was given a pass on inspection only for the light to come back on.

The rear passenger-side lower control arm mounting point on my 2010 Honda CR-V has rotted out due to severe corrosion. This has caused a loud clicking noise when driving over uneven surfaces and has compromised the structural integrity of the suspension system. The problem was confirmed by an independent mechanic, who stated that the control arm is no longer properly secured due to rust damage at the mounting point. The vehicle was also inspected by a Honda dealership, which noted frame perforation in and beyond the recall area related to NHTSA Recall No. 23V-228. Despite this, American Honda has refused to address the issue, stating that the corrosion does not fall within the defined recall area. This failure presents a significant safety risk, as the suspension could potentially detach while driving. The issue first became noticeable in mid-March 2025 when the clicking noise started and has persisted since. There were no prior warning lights or error messages. The corrosion is visible and the affected components are available for inspection upon request. The condition has been documented via dealer and mechanic reports, photographs, and video.

American Honda Motor Co., Inc. issued a recall for our 2010 CRV. The recall identified a flaw in the design whereby "corrosion can form in the rear frame due to the accumulation of road de-icing agents mixed with mud and water. As a result, the rear frame can deteriorate, and the rear trailing arm may fall off. A detached rear trailing arm can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash or injury." (NHSTA Recall Number 23V-228) After the work was performed, we were told by a representative of the dealership’s service department that the vehicle would not pass state motor vehicle safety inspection because of the work they had performed. Over the course of August, 2023 I made more than 20 attempts (15 by email and many more by phone) to reach Honda representatives to ask them to fully repair the car so that it could pass inspection, or to repurchase the vehicle per the terms of the recall notice. Honda declined, stating that "if the brace had not been installed, we would be having a different conversation" (telephone conversation with a supervisor at Honda, August 31, 2023). The work that Honda did to address this safety recall was insufficient because, although the service team at the dealership was able to install a brace on the vehicle's rear frame, the vehicle will not pass state motor vehicle inspection, according to both Honda's dealership mechanic and an assessment by an independent certified mechanic who is familiar with this vehicle. Honda’s original design of certain parts of the frame is responsible for the excessive corrosion of the rear frame which is rendering the vehicle unsafe to drive. Since American Honda Motor Co. was not able to repair the vehicle to a safe operating condition that will continue to pass state inspection, and since the vehicle is otherwise in proper, safe, working condition, the company should have offered to repurchase the vehicle.

Our vehicle started to jerk whenever it is at low gear. The check engine light goes on and off. The traction control light goes on and off. And an error code came up: p060a. The vehicle has stalled 2x after moderately jerking multiple times while driving @ 50m/hr. The air conditioning blows hot air after a few minutes of it running. We have checked recalls for the particular make, model and year and it is showing the classic vehicle recalls from Honda. Unfortunately, our VIN number shows that it was not part of the recalled vehicle. We have gone through Honda hoping that they could at least do a diagnostic run and verify if it is a possible recall issue, but they will only do it if we pay for everything. Please help.

Good afternoon, I'll try to keep this as brief as possible; I'm sure you can recontact me if you need additional information. This is not an incident, rather an issue related to the current recall 23V-228 for my 2010 Honda CRV. In 1/2023, the garage advised my Honda would not pass Maine State Safety Inspection due to the severe rust on the frame and where the left rear lower control arm (LCA) attached to the frame. They advised it could detach/break off, and my ability to steer safely to a stop would be affected. I took it to the Honda dealership and they confirmed it was unsafe to drive unless the rust and frame could be repaired. The dealer did not mention this was a common problem or any upcoming recalls for this issue. In 2/2023, I found a body shop that was able to repair the corrosion on the frame and the connection point for the LCA. I paid $1600, and the car passed Maine State Safety Inspection at the same garage that identified the problem. In 5/2023, I received the Honda safety recall referenced above, which states "you may be eligible for reimbursement if you paid for recall repairs out of pocket." I called the 888 # on the recall, received an email from American Honda, and replied to their email with the documents they requested, including the repair invoice. After recontacting American Honda a second time in 8/23, and a third time in 9/23, they advised they did not receive the document in 5/23, and I should resend the repair invoice. I received a call from American Honda on 10/16/2023, during which time they stated I was not eligible for reimbursement. This was due to the fact the repair invoice did not specifically state: “Trailing arm holder kit was replaced”. My case (#XXX) was closed. I read in a Part 574 Safety Recall Report, "Owners who have paid to have these repairs completed at their own expense will be eligible for reimbursement, in accord with the recall reimbursement plan on file with NHTSA." Do I qualify for reimbursement? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT

My CRV's door lock has been broken on and off for years now. I assumed it was a problem with the battery in the key or the key itself. I really became a problem a few months ago when the door would not open even with the key inserted into the lock. I would have to use the automatic lock and unlock buttons several times and then insert and turn the key before it would open. I did not know if or when the lock would fail permanently and I would be locked out of my car. This is a safety issue because I could have been stranded outside alone, or worse, stranded on the road with my infant. I understand that Honda settled a class action lawsuit for this known problem. (Kevin Davitt, et al. v. America Honda Motor Co., Inc., et al., Case No. XXX, in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.) I never received notice that there was a recall for this door actuator problem or that I was eligible to be a part of the class action. I contacted Honda and they insisted that I get a diagnostic though their dealership. They said I might be eligible for some sort of "good will" refund. I paid for the diagnostic and the repair, which was over $400. The service center at the dealer even said it was a known problem and that I should get something. Honda called me to deny the claim because they said I was out of warranty. They knew I was out of warranty when I contacted them in the first place. I would have gone to a local repair shop if I had known that they were using this as a ruse to get repair costs from me. The problem is that they knew that people were getting locked out of their cars and they didn't tell anyone. They knew that I was potentially part of the class of people who could have gotten relief but they didn't contact me. I don't think that they should leave people stranded out on the road or struggling with their door locks in this day and age when people get robbed or attacked a shopping centers and gas stations.
