The passenger car door unlocks for no reason. It used to automatically lock when I start driving, now it starts to open and will not remain locked while driving, or when I lock my car door when I park. When I use the key fob the car alarm goes off and the door is still unlocked. This car has had a recall on the airbags. The light comes on once in a while. It was fixed by the Honda Dealership but recently, once in a while, the light still comes on. It is concerning. The air pressure warning light will remain on even after I have had my tires checked.

Three days ago my daughter has a car accident. Her car was hit and the other driver left the scene. Since then the airbag light is on and the seatbelt is not working. I took the car to a dealership and there's no recall. We are worried because my daughter could have been seriously hurt and the airbag didn't protect her. The car was stationary when it was hit.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2007 Honda CR-V. the contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16V096000 (seat belts), but the part to do the repair was unavailable.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2007 Honda CR-V. the contact stated that when the vehicle was taken to be serviced for NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V346000 (air bags) and 16V061000 (air bags), the dealer only replaced the inflator for the driver side air bag due to the passenger side air bag parts not being available.

I was stopped at a market and closed my door in a normal fashion.. the seat belt in the drivers side did not retract, and the metal buckle jammed in the locking mechanism and broke the lock. The door lock was stuck in the locked position. I drove my car to the airport Honda dealership in los angeles ca. Steering with my left hand and holding the door with my right hand, . an intake customer service rep by the name of [xxx], put a screw driver in the mechanism and unjammed the lock. I thought that the problem was resolved. My door would not lock. Due to financial hardships I could not afford the estimate of repairs at the time. I was told that I would be reimbursed after the inspection and repairs were made. I paid for the repairs in the amount of $307. After jumping through every hoop that Honda requested of me, I am now being told that I could not be reimbursed in cash, Honda was never concerned about my safety or if the seat belt would actually hold up in an accident. They have refused to acknowledge that this is a safety issue.my seat belt was replaced and deemed defective by a certified Honda mechanic.

My son got in the vehicle to take his wife to pick up her car and the seatbelt on the drivers side was locked. We tried everything we could think of and wasn't able to unlock it. Local body shop couldn't get it unlocked 1/28/2013 and said it would have to be replaced. Just wondering if there has been a recall on this particular vehicle, if so we weren't notified. 100,000 plus miles vehicle at shop at present time.

I was traveling approximately 25-30 mph when a woman driver failed to stop at a stop sign which caused me to hit the side of her car. My seatbelt retracted and save me, however the airbag did not deploy. There was however a scent of burning or a chemical reaction inside the cabin. I was under the impression that airbags will deploy at more than 10 mph upon impact. Clearly I was going faster than 10-15 mph. I am wondering if something was a miss.

Seatbelt came unbuckled during a collision. Insurance is going to fix, but I wanted this noted, as I see a recall in 2002 for this same issue.

CR-V

  • 14,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Honda CR-V. while driving approximately 40 mph, the antilock brake system engaged when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact rear ended another vehicle. As a result, the bumper completely detached from the front end of the vehicle and the radiator was damaged. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained major injuries because the seat belt locked and would not unlatch. The passenger in the other vehicle was uninjured. A police report was filed and the vehicle was towed to the dealer. Prior to the failure, the contact heard a grinding sound while driving in reverse, but there was no failure at that time. The current and failure mileages were 14,000.
