My name is [xxx] phone number [xxx] [xxx] then number to my vehicle also address on the VIN number [xxx] id number [xxx] issued state of California [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
Honda refused to correct the door locking system for 2002 to 2006. There was a recall for only to 2007 to 2009 which have the same kind of problem. For second times, I was stuck because the driver door locked and cannot open and then forced myself to exit through the passenger door. My major concern for my safety reason in case if into accident or else. Honda dealer wants over a thousand dollars to replace parts for both front doors. I am not sure about rear doors but I learned some CRV has a problem with all door locks. I was deeply discouraged your Agency did not do with this situation with 2002-2006 CRV. I spoke with a representative. He said due to an old car high mileage vehicle will not pay for the replacement parts and labor. I told him regardless of age or mileage but my point is my safety issue. He suggested me to junk my vehicle and buy a new one will resolve my situation. I am retired and have a fixed income from social security which I cannot afford to buy a new car. My vehicle is running very good. There are a lot of people frustrated with this safety-related issue.
Car caught fire while parked. I did not receive a recall or warning notice. The electrical cables from driver door looks melted and fire spread quickly. Firefighters had to be called and they had to wet the car and disconnect the battery. This mode vehicle and year shows 5 open recalls, but when I search by VIN# it shows no open recalls. I was lucky not to be driving the car.
The contact owns a 2004 Honda CR-V. the contact stated that the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact also stated that a sensor for the catalytic converter also illuminated. The contact also stated that the front passenger's side door lock seized. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000. Consumer stated engine light comes on and off continually. Just had brakes fixed- broken pads, now light is on again, trim around windshield blew off... 50,000 miles light in interior fell down ( it is rotted). It is a lemon with apparent electrical problems, sensors on all the time. Updated 05/31/18
