2006 Honda CR-V Driver assistance Problems

Vehicle brakes come on spontaneously while driving, during acceleration in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. Seems to be a part of the ABS/VSA system faulty engagement (Anti-Lock Brakes System/Vehicle Stability Assist) since the VSA warning light come on during the fault. Causes vehicle to brake, jerk and buck in middle of road. Almost got rear-ended on several occasions. Car stalls in middle of roadway. Disfunctional safety system failing to work properly. Intermittent problem that has occurred several time in the past year. Local dealer was "not able" to diagnose the problem despite inspection and problem issue report.

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. ACCELERATING FROM A STOPLIGHT, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY WENT TO MAXIMUM THROTTLE. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAD NO EFFECT, AND THE FLOOR MAT WAS WELL CLEAR OF THE PEDAL. PUSHING HARD ON THE BRAKE HAD LITTLE EFFECT. FINALLY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. CITY ROAD WHERE TWO LANES IN OUR DIRECTION MERGE TO ONE. SPEED LIMIT 40 MPH; HEAVY TRAFFIC. NARROWLY AVOIDED COLLIDING WITH CAR AHEAD. CAR THEN TOWED TO HONDA DEALER, AND IS AWAITING EVALUATION BY DISTRICT MANAGER.

I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE CAR STARTING ACTING STRANGE - ACCELERATION WAS VERY WEAK, STEERING WAS HEAVY, AND WHEN I WAS STOPPED CAR WOULD NEARLY STALL. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH WAS ALARMING. I TOOK CAR INTO HONDA DEALER AND AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH THEY SAID I NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE DUE TO A GLITCH IN THE INITIAL SOFTWARE AND CHARGED ME $224 WHICH I WAS NOT HAPPY TO PAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECT IN THEIR CAR SOFTWARE SINCE I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE AFFECTED THEIR CAR SOFTWARE. IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS HAD THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION OCCURRED ON THE FREEWAY, THREATENING MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CRV WITH LESS THAN 40000 MILES. UPON STARTING THE CAR THE VSA AND ABS INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS OR ANY NOTICEABLE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET UNDER GOOD CONDITIONS AS WE TOOK CAR TO THE HONDA DEALER, AND WAS TOLD THE VSA MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $2,600. PLUS PUS A CHARGE OF $110. FOR DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHICH HAD TO BE DONE. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL. THANKS HONDA FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT. BUY AMERICAN

I OWN A 2006 CRV WITH UNDER 33000 MILES, I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS VEHICLE AS I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. SO ALL OF A SUDDEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VSA, ABS, ENGINE, TPS (TRIANGLE EXPLANATION POINT SYMBOL) AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND I'M TOLD THE VSA MODULE NEEDS REPLACING! COSTING $2400. WOW! THAT'S EXPENSIVE. I THINK THIS PART SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED CONSIDERING THE SEVERITY! THIS PART IS VITAL AND HOW HAS $2400 BURNING A WHOLE IN THERE POCKET? PLEASE HELP! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!

THE VSA AND ABS LIGHTS ON MY 2006 CR-V CAME ON UPON STARTING AND STAYED ON UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS STOPPED. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME THE CAR WAS STARTED. MY HONDA DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE A FAULTY ABS MODULATOR UNIT. THE STATED REPLACEMENT COST IS $2,400, INCLUDING LABOR. I FEEL THAT THIS DEFECT IS ESSENTIAL IN ENSURING THE OVERALL SAFETY OF THIS CAR. THE WEIGHT OF THE CAR IS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH THAT AN UNCONTROLLED SKID IS MUCH MORE LIKELY TO END IN DISASTER THAN A SKID THAT IS STOPPED WITH THE VSA AND ABS FUNCTION WORKING PROPERLY. LIVING IN CENTRAL OHIO, THE ABS AND VSA FUNCTIONS ARE USED FREQUENTLY - ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER. THESE KEY SAFETY FEATURES WERE A TOP PRIORITY IN MY DECISION TO BUY THIS CAR. WHILE THE CAR'S LIFE EXPECTANCY IS TOUTED TO BE AROUND 300,000 MILES, IT IS UNFORGIVABLE FOR SUCH A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY FUNCTION TO FAIL AT ONLY 102,000 MILES. I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD RECALL THESE CARS AND REPLACE THE VSA MODULATOR UNIT ENTIRELY AT HONDA'S EXPENSE. AND FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIR - REIMBURSE THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE REPAIR! THE CAR WITHOUT VSA AND ABS IS NOT AT ALL THE SAME "AS ADVERTISED" WHEN SOLD NEW!

ABS AND VSA LIGHTS CAME ON. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE ABS MODULATOR NEEDED REPLACING. MY COST WOULD BE $2450.00. SINCE THIS COMPONENT CONTROLS BRAKES AND STABILITY IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEREFORE SUBJECT TO A RECALL.

THE VSA AND EXCLAMATION LIGHT CAME ON ONE DAY RIGHT WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AND HAS NEVER TURNED OFF. MY MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 44,000 MILES. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND CONFIRMED THE ABS MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. PART+LABOR = $2400+ (EXCLUDING TAX). CALLED U.S. HONDA MANUFACTURER AND THEY WILL PAY 25% FOR THE PART. THAT STILL IS EXPENSIVE. I'M READING OFF ON THE WEB THAT COUNTRIES IN THE UK AND CANADA, THAT HONDA HAS PAID THE PART IN FULL. HERE IN THE U.S. THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE THIS AS A DEFECT. THIS PART IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. A LOCAL MECHANIC SAYS I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THIS WHERE IT SNOWS. IF THERE'S SAND, THE CAR WILL BE STUCK. ANOTHER MECHANIC SAID THERE COULD BE A SHORT. HONDA MANUFACTURER NEVER ADVISED ME OF THIS OR IF IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE OR SHOULD BE REPLACED RIGHT AWAY. COMING FROM FAMILY WHO BUYS MOSTLY HONDA'S, I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN. I WAS LOOKING AT A ODYSSEY, BUT SAW IT HAD A HUGE VSA ISSUE AS WELL. SOMETIMES I WONDER IF IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE BECAUSE A FEW TIMES THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT TURNS ON ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED ON. HAVE NEVER USED CRUISE CONTROL. NEVER DRIVEN IN BAD WEATHER AND AVOID HEAVY RAIN. DRIVEN ONLY FEW TIMES PER WEEK AND CAREFULLY IN MOSTLY LOCAL SHORT DISTANCES. *JS

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION IN OUR 2006 HONDA CR-V A PREVIOUS INCIDENT ON A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY WAS QUICKLY CONTROLLED AND THOUGHT OF AS AN ANOMALY. THIS TIME, ON THE HIGHWAY, GOING UPHILL AT 60 MPH, ATTEMPTING TO PASS, THE ENGINE WENT TO FULL THROTTLE. IT WOULD NOT RETURN, JUST KEPT RACING. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULD NOT RESPOND. THERE WAS NO FLOOR PAD INVOLVED. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED AS FORCEFULLY AS POSSIBLE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS PULLED. IT COULDN'T BE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL. THIS HAPPENED WITHIN A DISTANCE OF A HALF-MILE, AND HALF-MILE FURTHER IS A SIGNAL AND CROSS TRAFFIC. TERRIFIED, WE WRESTLED THE VEHICLE OFF HIGHWAY ONTO A SIDE ROAD, AND GRADUALLY GROUND TO A HALT, BURNING THE BRAKES. WITH THE ENGINE RACING, IT WAS PUT IN PARK AND TURNED OFF FOR A MINUTE, THEN IT STARTED AND RAN NORMALLY. TOWED TO HONDA THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG EVEN WHEN THE DISTRICT SERVICE MANAGER INSPECTED IT. WE WOULD NOT DRIVE IT ANYMORE. WE WOULDN'T FOIST THIS VEHICLE ON ANY ONE ELSE EXCEPT HONDA BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE SO WE RELUCTANTLY TRADED IT IN FOR AS NEW ONE. JUST BECAUSE HONDA CAN'T FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG DOES NOT MEAN THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. THIS IS THE FIFTH HONDA WE HAVE OWNED, BUT WE ARE NOT GREAT FANS OF THE BRAND ANYMORE. *TR

THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) WARNING LIGHTS SUDDENLY CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE HONDA DEALER (GRAPPONE HONDA, BOW, NH) WHO INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE ABS MODULATOR CONTROL UNIT HAD A DEFECTIVE INTERNAL VALVE AND FAILED. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE CAR ABS SYSTEM WAS NO LONGER OPERATIONAL, AND THIS ALSO DISABLED THE VSA (VEHICLE STABILITY) SYSTEM, THUS MAKING THE HONDA CR-V MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO ROLL-OVERS. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT NEW HAMPSHIRE DEPARTMENT OF SAFETY IS CURRENTLY CONTEMPLATING REQUIRING ABS SYSTEM OPERATION TO PASS ANNUAL SAFETY INSPECTIONS, BUT THAT THE HONDA CR-V COULD CURRENTLY BE DRIVEN WITHOUT AN OPERATIONAL ABS BRAKING SYSTEM. THE HONDA DEALER INDICATED IT WOULD COST $2,050.00 TO REPAIR THE ABS MODULATOR CONTROL UNIT AND THAT IT WOULD TAKE DAYS TO ORDER THE PART AND FURTHER ADDITIONAL DAYS TO SCHEDULE REPAIR ONCE THE PART WAS AT THE DEALER. I REVIEWED SAFERCAR.GOV INFORMATION AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS HONDA ABS/VSA SYSTEM PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ON OTHER HONDA CR-VS. AN ASSESSMENT OF AVAILABLE INTERNET INFORMATION INDICATED APPROXIMATELY 55 CASES OF HONDA ABS MODULATOR CONTROL UNIT FAILURES. SINCE ABS (AND VSA) IS SO CENTRAL TO SAFE CAR OPERATION, I ASK THAT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION ACT TO ADDRESS THIS RECURRENT HONDA CR-V BRAKING SYSTEM ABS MODULATOR INTERNAL DEFECT. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IN LIGHT OF THE ABS/VSA SYSTEM'S IMPACT ON HONDA CR-V BRAKING AND STABILITY SAFETY.

I INCORRECTLY PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE 1. I NOTICED MY MISTAKE AND CHANGED THE TRANSMISSION TO DRIVE. THE CAR'S COMPUTER PUT THE VEHICLE IN FULL THROTTLE. I BRAKED AND PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL AND THE RPM GAUGE SHOWED THE CAR TO BE IN FULL THROTTLE. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND EVERYTHING WAS OK AFTER THIS INCIDENT. I AM 100% SURE THAT THE COMPUTER ON THIS VEHICLE HAS SOME PROBLEMS. *TR

AS I WAS PARKING MY CAR, IT SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING LURCHED FORWARD FULL THROTTLE OUT OF CONTROL OVER THE PARKING BARRIER AND CURB AND THROUGH A STOREFRONT WINDOW. I TRIED TO STOP IT AS MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE THE WHOLE TIME, BUT I COULD NOT, AND IT LODGED ITSELF INTO A DRYWALL COUNTER AND SIDE WALL.(IT WAS LATER FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A 600 POUND SAFE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COUNTER, WHICH PROBABLY STOPPED THE CAR) I SHUT OFF THE IGNITION AND YELLED FOR HELP. I WAS COVERED IN GLASS AND INJURED MY SHOULDER, NECK, UPPER BACK AND RIGHT LEG. I HAD JUST HAD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR AND REAR BRAKE PADS REPLACED AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP 6 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS. MY CAR WAS MAINTAINED THERE REGULARLY. IT IS FORTUNATE NOBODY WAS KILLED. THE INCIDENT WAS CAUGHT ON THE SECURITY TAPE. *TR

VSA/ABS MODULATOR FAILURE. VSA/ABS AND VSA EXCLAMATION POINT ALL CAME ON AT ONCE FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND WOULD NOT GO OUT. CERTIFIED HONDA DEALER DID A DIAGNOSTIC WHICH SHOWED THE MODULATOR FAILURE.....SO ESSENTIALLY A MAJOR COMPONENT OF MY BRAKING SYSTEM FAILED. A REPLACEMENT COST OF $1500!!!! VEHICLE IS WELL CARED FOR, I AVOID INCLEMENT WEATHER (IE: SNOW/ICE ETC.) WHEN POSSIBLE AND I CAN COUNT ON TWO HANDS THE AMOUNT OF TIMES THE VSA HAS KICKED ON SINCE FIRST PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN 2006 (BRAND NEW). AS FOR MY ABS I'M NOT AN AGGRESSIVE DRIVER SO MY ABS HAVEN'T BEEN USED AS MUCH EITHER. THE VSA/ABS MODULE SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AS IT DID. *TR

1) APRIL 5, 2010: FORTY-FIVE MINUTES INTO THE DRIVE, MY GAS TANK (WHICH WAS HALF FULL) DROPPED BELOW EMPTY IN JUST ONE SECOND. I COULD FEEL THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS IN THE LEFT HAND LANE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. AT THIS POINT, I KNEW THAT I NEEDED TO PULL OVER AND GET HELP. UNFORTUNATELY, THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE PASSING ME ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE NOT ALLOWING ME TO GET OVER. I KNEW THAT IF SOMEONE WOULD NOT LET ME OVER INTO THE RIGHT HAND LANE, I WAS GOING TO DIE ALONG WITH OTHERS THAT WOULD CRASH INTO ME. FORTUNATELY, GOD CREATED AN OPENING. AT THIS OPENING, I MERGED ONTO AN EXIT RAMP FOR ME TO REALIZE I DON'T HAVE ANY BRAKES AT ALL. I WENT INTO PANIC AND FIGHT MODE. I WAS AN INCH AWAY FROM SLAMMING INTO A POLE AND TIPPING OVER A LITTLE CLIFF WHEN I SLAMMED THE CAR INTO PARK POSITION IN ORDER TO STOP MY CAR. 2) FAILURE: LOSS OF CONTROL, ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN, LOSS OF BRAKES ON THE HIGHWAY CONSEQUENCES: ALMOST LOST MY LIFE AND COULD'VE EASILY KILLED OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE PROBLEM OCCURRED, BUT THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ENGINE PROBLEM. 3) CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP. SEVERAL SCANS DONE. THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. 4) TOWED CAR FROM THAT DEALERSHIP TO MY ORIGINAL DEALER. THIS HONDA CR-V BOUGHT BRAND NEW IS CURRENTLY WITH MY ORIGINAL DEALER. THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE DEFECT. *TR
