2024 Honda CR-V Owner Complaints

Was drive down a 3 lane road when all kinds of error message/lighs/indicators lit up the dash board. Eventually the vehicle lost power (No go power) and I ended up coasting to a very slow speed. I then tried to get out of the lane with my emergence lights flashing by turning left to try and get off the road at an intersection. Another vehicle then crashed into me causing serious damage but no injuries. NOT GOOD.

When the gasoline engine attempted to start, the engine jerked violently and then failed to start. A notice briefly displayed on the dashboard stating, "Power system temperature high. Power may be reduced." The vehicle continued to run on battery power. This occurred several times during a one-hour period when the car attempted to recharge the hybrid battery. The vehicle was being driven in town and had been turned off and on a few times. I took the vehicle to the dealership because I had limited battery range left, but the technicians could not replicate the issue. This first occurred a couple of months ago. The vehicle had been performing normally until last night, when the engine jerked and the warning popped up on the dashboard once again before the vehicle returned to driving normally.

Problem 1: Windshield wipers do not more far enough to the left A-pillar. Rain accumulates in a large area along the A-pillar and creates a large blind spot while turning left. The wiper also drags the rainwater back toward the right making the blind spot ever wider. Problem 2: Windshield washer fluid doesn't reach the entire windshield, particularly the passenger side. Fluid only comes out at the top of the wiper stroke, so the wiper wipes dry windshield. The spray arrives late, sometimes when the wipers are already nearly vertical. Fluid collects along left edge of the windshield instead of distributing across the glass. The wipers begin sweeping before enough fluid has reached the windshield. Dirt and bugs get smeared rather than cleaned off. The passenger side gets sprayed only along the bottom path of the wiper. There is no spray nozzle for the entire outer half of the wiper. The entire field of view of the passenger side is blurry and not clean. This is a terrible design and a horrible safety issue! Please make Honda recall the wipers and issue a redesigned system.

While driving at approximately 50mph the vehicle abruptly and aggressively applied the brake despite there being no vehicles, pedestrians, or any other objects in its path. The red braking display appeared on the dashboard. After the abrupt braking I was able to resume accelerating as normal. This could have caused a serious collision. The vehicle is scheduled to be inspected at the local Honda dealership service department on 10/31. There were no warning lamps just prior to the incident. However, in mid September the vehicle displayed multiple warnings and had to be taken to the dealership service department. They diagnosed the problem being related to low coolant, but weren’t completely certain that was the issue.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the contact was informed that the warning lights were reset prior to a diagnostic test and the vehicle could not be diagnosed. The contact stated that while her husband was driving 60 MPH, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the spark plugs and an ignition coil in cylinder #1 was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the valve springs were inspected and adjusted as per the manufacturer's specs; however, there was a misfire during a test drive. The dealer determined that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The contact associated the failure with a TSB for fuel injector failures on previous model years. The contact was concerned that the dealer intentionally performed inadequate repairs prior to providing the correct diagnosis. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by phone, and a case was filed for goodwill assistance. The contact was awaiting a resolution. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000.

I have experienced this 2 times once in late august early September of this year 2026 and on [XXX] I was making a left turn onto a street in Long Beach, CA in-between [XXX]. I was going under 25 miles and did not have cruise control or the driver assist for lane steering on and as soon as I started to make a left the vehicle abruptly stopped causing the upper half of my body to jerk forward hurting my lower back again and now I have slight headaches waking up in the morning again since then. Its like the vehicle sensed there was a vehicle in front of me, parked cars on the street or passing by me going in the opposite direction, and the automatic break came on as if I was going to be in a collision which I wasn't. Again, I didn't use the steering assistance in the vehicle, because I stopped using it after the first incident occurred. The second time, [XXX] I was going to slow for cruise control to be on, so I'm not sure why this mechanism even was active unless it's just a built-in feature. Nevertheless, built-in or not, it malfunctioned injuring me. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the carpet was lifting where the floor mat connected to the retention hooks near the driver's side door panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that the carpet needed to be replaced; however, the repair was not covered under warranty. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the carpet was replaced twice; however, the failure recurred with the carpet sliding down from underneath the dashboard, shifting away from the door seal and retention hooks. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the failure was confirmed, and the carpet was repositioned, but the driver's side seat sliding mechanism became stuck. The dealer determined that the driver's seat motor had failed and it was replaced. The carpet failure persisted and continued sliding down near the pedals. The vehicle was taken to a second dealer, Norm Reeves Honda Superstore West Covina (1840 E Garvey Ave S, West Covina, CA 91791), where an inspection revealed that the driver's side kick panel was loose and not properly secured, and the first dealer had attempted to repair the carpet by using a staple to attach it to the firewall, possibly causing the carpet to rip apart. The contact was referred to the first dealer, who stated that the district manager had not approved the repair because the vehicle was out of warranty. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by phone, and four separate reports were filed. The failure mileage was approximately 10,060.

A county wide emergency alert broadcast a very loud alert received by my 2024 CRv's infotainment system. This caused a spike in the car's electrical power. This confused the Idle Stop System. This caused my car to stall in the middle of a left turn onto a heavily trafficked road ([XXX] in [XXX].) I was very lucky that the other cars in the intersection were able to stop, so ther was no collision in this particular case.

Vehicle: 2024 Honda CR-V I am reporting a longstanding steering safety concern that existed well before my recent accident. I first reported steering problems to an authorized Honda dealership when my vehicle had approximately 1,155 miles. I reported difficulty with the steering wheel returning to center and the steering grabbing to one side. I subsequently returned to Honda multiple times for steering-related concerns. At approximately 2,121 miles I reported the vehicle pulling left or right on the highway. At approximately 4,910 miles I again reported pulling and a sensation that the steering wheel was pulling by itself. At approximately 5,693 miles I reported that the vehicle would move to the right at highway speed and required constant steering correction. At approximately 15,754 miles, I reported that the steering felt very tight and that two hands were necessary because of the high steering effort. At approximately 25,468 miles, after I reported that the steering was sticking, the steering gearbox/power-steering rack was replaced. I subsequently continued experiencing steering-related issues and returned for additional service. Most recently, at approximately 34,603 miles, I again reported tight steering, pulling to the right and shaking at highway speeds. On September 04, 2026, at approximately 38000 miles, while driving in wet conditions, I was involved in a loss-of-control/hydroplaning accident. During the event I was driving in traffic and following other vehicles, I was maintaining control of my vehicle with both hands on the steering wheel. During the incident, I suddenly noticed that the vehicle began pulling or steering sharply to the right, despite my efforts to maintain the vehicle's direction. As I attempted to correct the vehicle's direction and steer to the left, I experienced significant resistance in the steering, and the steering became unusually difficult to turn to the left. I was unable to regain proper directional control of

2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport, bought new April 2024, still under 3yr/36k warranty. All four original tires (235/60R18) hit the wear indicators at about 23,000 miles, worn most at the inner shoulder. Serviced only at the selling Honda dealer with no missed intervals. Tires rotated at 5,450, 14,256 and 19,746 miles. Dealer performed a four wheel alignment at 14,256 miles. Pressures kept at door jamb spec. Never driven hard, off road, overloaded or towed with. Safety concern: the dealer documented a tire condition inspection at 19,746 miles on 06/09/2026, when tires were about 3,250 miles from the wear bars. They recommended an alignment but did not recommend tire replacement, did not disclose tread depth, and gave no warning the tires were near end of life. I kept driving at highway speed unaware tread was marginal, increasing hydroplaning and loss of control risk in wet conditions. The wear rate is abnormal for a vehicle maintained on schedule and aligned at 14,256 miles. The dealer said alignment now reads acceptable and refused to diagnose the cause. The General Manager declined assistance. American Honda reviewed it at district level and authorized nothing. No explanation was given. Honda TSB 20-081, Rapid Rear Tire Wear, names rear alignment as the cause on 2017-2020 CR-V and 2020 CR-V Hybrid. Many 2023-2024 CR-V Hybrid owners report original tires finished at 13,500 to 25,000 miles. Requesting investigation into premature and uneven tire wear on 2023 and later CR-V and CR-V Hybrid, including rear suspension geometry and factory alignment spec. No crash, fire or injury.

I own a 2024 Honda CR-V EX-L with approximately 59,628 miles. While driving the vehicle, multiple warning lights began flashing on the dashboard. At the same time, the vehicle became difficult to drive and did not feel as though it was operating normally. I was concerned for my safety because the problem occurred while the vehicle was being driven. The vehicle was taken to two different authorized Honda dealership for diagnosis. I was informed that the fuel injectors had failed and needed to be replaced. The dealership quoted approximately $2,500 for the repair and told me that the fuel-injector failure was considered normal “wear and tear.” I am concerned that fuel injectors would fail on a 2024 Honda CR-V with only approximately 59,628 miles. I am particularly concerned because the failure was accompanied by multiple dashboard warning lights and made the vehicle difficult to drive. I believe this issue should be investigated as a potential safety defect because a fuel-injector failure that affects the vehicle's drivability could create a dangerous situation while the vehicle is being operated. I have contacted American Honda Motor Co. regarding the issue and requested that Honda review the fuel-injector failure for applicable warranty, emissions-warranty, service campaign, or goodwill coverage.

Steering feels sticky/jerky when turning left. Front-left tire outer edge is severely worn down, while other tires are normal. Honda recall 24V744 for steering gearbox was completed, but the problem persists. I suspect the steering rack is defective, causing misalignment and abnormal tire wear. This affects vehicle control and safety.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Wiper system malfunctions by allowing driver side wiper to intermittently reach varied end positions, sometimes striking the A-pillar. Vehicle is available for inspection upon request (has been inspected by dealer already). How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? While driving in heavy rain, wiper erratically slamming into A-pillar is distracting and has caused me to try to adjust wiper speed and settings to prevent wiper arm from potentially breaking, which could be dangerous in certain higher speed conditions in heavy rain/low visibility. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, dealer was able to observe/reproduce the highly variable end position of the drivers side wiper. Dealer notes wiper shows up to 6 inch variance in where it stops. They could also see by the wiper marks on the windshield the variation in the end position. However, they compared the wiper function to another CRV and said it seems normal and refused warranty repair because the wiper was not broken or misadjusted at this time. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lamps or messages. Symptom is recurring since purchase of the vehicle. However, the wiper only demonstrates the ability to strike the A-pillar during heavier rain and use of wipers for longer periods (which has not happened frequently during time I've owned/driven vehicle).

The windshield wipers and system of water delivery from the blades onto the windshield is a total disaster. You can easily have an accident due to extremely poor visibility after using the windshield wipers to clean the windshield with water, especially if the sun glares on your windshield which is now smeared not clean and reflects and refracts all the smear. You can't see and aggravates the driver. I almost did have an accident. Very scarry to have such poor visibility when you expect to clean your windshield not to smear it! Water is dispersed from the blades way too late in the sequence and the quantities are too small to perform a cleaning, not even a suboptimal one. I asked the dealer to fix the timer and it cannot be done. I also asked to allow more water to be deliver earlier in the sequence and that can't be done either. In addition, the water tank for the window cleaning is way too small as you try to keep cleaning since it only smears. Honda needs to address this issue. I was a Honda enthusiast since the early 90's, but I will never buy a Honda again if they don't change this design which is a total safety hazard. This happens all the time when you try to clean the windshield and it is dry outside. At least when it is raining the rainwater helps. I uploaded some pictures below that shows a “clean” smeared after trying 3 times to clean the windshield using new blades. Extremely unsafe and disappointing of Honda's "new" useless design. They can at least change the software to allow the service dealers to reset the time of the water delivery sequence to be instant when the blade is still down and to have more water be delivered. Currently the water delivery happens only when the blades made it up already, after they already smeared a dry window and in the mean time you lose all the water delivered at the point and the windshield is not clean, but smeared. I am retired engineer by profession and Honda can go back to the design board to come up with a fix.
