What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2027 Honda CR-V, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Noticed fuel economy gauge jumping around at steady speed, fuel consumption and noticed oil cap has gash in it and oil filler neck has oil on it. No engine light or warning lights. Waiting on dealership to diagnose.

Visibility
Reports naming windshields, glass, wipers, defrosters and mirrors.
From owner reports, verbatim
It was 33 degrees out and I used my car starter to warm up my car. Shortly after using the heated mirrors, my passenger side mirror cracked (there was no impact or strike). The mirror cracked in half, top to bottom, which made the mirror unsafe to use as it distorted the view. There were no warnings or notifications.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
