Ref: NHTSA Recall #23V-228 We are requesting that the recall be reopened and revised to add complaint regarding Smail Honda located 5043, RT 30, Greensburg, PA 15601 who damaged our car when doing the recall. The dealership damaged the vehicle when they did recall attachment of braces, to the point where it will no longer pass Required PA Safety Inspection. On 9/21/23 we took our car to Smail Honda Village in Greensburg for Honda Campaign: UE3 related to corrosion of the rear frame on our 2007 Honda CRV. According to the reason for the recall -??Corrosion can form in the rear frame-?? and -??the rear frame can deteriorate-??. In the recall notice, we were told: -??Your Honda dealer will inspect the rear frame for corrosion-??. If the rear frame cannot be repaired, Honda may offer to repurchase the vehicle from you.-?? My husband was told that the corrosion was so bad in the rear of the vehicle that it will not pass inspection. If it cannot pass the next PA state inspection, then essentially, it should be considered unsafe to drive. This would appear to represent the -??spirit-?? of the recall which is to get unsafe Honda cars off the road and save lives. Nevertheless, the dealership did not offer to repurchase the vehicle as they should have done but they continued to attach the brace to this severely rusted frame which they, themselves, have determined is so bad that it will not pass inspection. The dealership has failed to remedy the dangerous corrosion of the rear frame in this vehicle which is the basic intent of the recall, and we are extremely dissatisfied with the attempt to remedy this safety issue. We are requesting that Honda Repurchase this vehicle and indicated in recall notice.

I don't know what is going on. I hope I don't have any problems I worked hard for this car and now it a rust bucket and I can put my grandchildren in harmsway. I've always wanted a Honda crv and now look. Disappointed Douglas Hammond

Honda CRV subject to NHTSA recall 23V-228. I called the dealer who confirms vehicle recall and informed me Honda has no parts available to carry out the recall. Called Honda customer service, phone agent initially said vehicle has been recalled, and I can get reimbursed for parts needed to fix it. I explained Honda dealer said no parts available. Honda CSR after a brief hold said upon further review, that my vehicle has not been recalled. I told her that contradicted her initial information, the NHTSA web site, the Honda recall web site and my conversation with the dealer. The CRV was purchased in a rust belt state and operated in a rust belt state for approximately 14 years. I explained several times to Honda CSR that this wasn't a simple broken radio recall, but a safety recall indicating that the vehicle could crash when something breaks on the rear axel when driven. Honda again said my vehicle had not been recalled.

Car hit pothole and rear left suspension broke away at mounting points

- Contoocook, NH, USA

While traveling at 70 mph on I-80 in Indiana, without warning, the right rear trailing arm broke away from the frame of the vehicle causing loss of control. The vehicle swerved across both West bound lanes four times before coming to a stop. Luckily it was early morning and there were no other vehicles near us. We were towed to a Honda dealer in Fort Wayne and they verified the vehicle was not repairable. The insurance company also had an adjuster inspect the vehicle and confirm it was not repairable. The vehicle was left in Indiana and we had to rent a vehicle to continue our trip home to Wisconsin. I don't understand why there isn't a recall or TSB issued for the problem stated with this vehicle. It's a known problem that's documented here and other places on the internet. Canada had a recall but American Honda and the NHTSA don't seem to acknowledge it.

- Peshtigo, WI, USA

A part of the rear suspension failed, caused the rear wheel to turn while driving at highway speed. Lost control and crashed. I do have possession of the vehicle, I can make it available. Safety - No control of vehicle- safety and life of myself and any other vehicle around me were at risk. Vehicle was inspected by the insurance company to determine value. No warnings, and the affected area looked acceptable. I am regularly under this vehicle, it has been inspected regularly.

- Greenville, PA, USA

Yes our safety was put at risk my husband was driving the car when this occurred. The rear frame stiffener rusted and broke, the tire almost came off in the process. There were no warnings prior to the event and Honda didn-??t reach out notifying us of this problem that they were aware of. The vehicle is available for inspection. The vehicle hasn-??t been inspected. We reached out to Honda regarding this and they haven-??t wanted to do anything about it. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10189133-0001.pdf https://hondanews.ca/en-CA/hci-corporate/releases/release-ab89226b670509f394802c0ef6b6a0e36e3789d2-statement-by-honda-canada-inc-regarding-safety-recall-2007-11-honda-cr-v

While performing maintenance on the car, I found that the left (drivers) rear mounting bracket which is a part of the frame/body, and hold the right rear trailing arm - holding the rear axle was severely rusted and cracking apart from corrosion. The right (passenger) bracket showed no rust damage. This problem has been reported by others, and Canada has found the same issues and issued a recall for this car/vin group. Although this car is 15 years old, this thick 3/8" heavy metal bracket should not have disintegrated like this even with the salt used on the highways, and is shown with absolutely no issue with the right (passenger side)bracket. Upon taking it to the dealer, there was nothing they could do, nor could they get the "fix" being used in Canada or any other information as to how they are correcting this problem. Suggestion is to buy a new car or take it to a body shop and see if they could fabricate a repair. Honda dealer did not seem to be too concerned about this rust, so I will have to go elsewhere to have it evaluated. From what I have found here on the internet, this is a serious problem, and when it breaks as it has for others, you loose control of the car because the axle is now only attached to one side of the car. If there is a fix for this, (as they have one in Canada) they should be compelled to provide it. This isn't a who pays for the repair. It's been known for some time now, and they should have already addressed this. But to withhold the safety fix isn't acceptable.

On March 20, we were driving 2007 Honda CRV in the city of Worcester, MA at ~20mph when we heard a large "Clunk" followed by a dragging noise and immediate skidding of the vehicle. We were not able to get the vehicle to the side of the road. When it was safe to get out, we noticed the rear wheel was broken and parallel to the ground. The police came and had the car towed to East Side Auto Center 235 Shrewsbury Street Worcester, MA 01604 508-798-9100 Contact Person = Frank Santamaria Upon inspection, Mr. Santamaria informed us that the frame was completely rotted in the rear, causing the suspension components to separate from the frame. He further stated that repair was not possible. In researching the issue, I found that Honda Canada had recalled 2007-2011 Honda CRV's for this same defect. As part of the recall, Honda Canada was buying back eligible vehicles or repairing them at their expense. I filed a claim with Honda America and was denied any compensation. There are several complaints on the internet for the same issue. https://Such a catastrophic failure poses a serious safety issue, especially if the failure happens in a congested area, on a highway at elevated speeds, or in a rural area where assistance is not readily accessible. I believe Honda should recall these vehicles before someone gets injured or killed from their neglegence.

While driving vehicle on 07/01/2021 the right rear trailing arm disconnected from the right rear frame rail due to corrosion. Transport Canada issued a recall (#2019-025) for 83,953 Honda CR-V's sold new in Canada for this problem. My Honda CR-V was manufactured at the same plant as those recalled in Canada. The reason for the recall in Canada was because these vehicles were driven on roads treated with deicing materials, much the same as vehicles driven in Illinois. This vehicle has not been inspected by American Honda. This is a clear safety issue due to the nature of the suspension becoming detached with no notice.

- Galena, IL, USA

Driving down a secondary road at 40 mph, the car made a loud crashing and scraping spud. This made the driver duck and cover as it felt that the car had seen struck by something. The car then began to veer out of control. The rear end began to fishtail left into the opposite lane then back again. The car then quickly came to a laid scrapping stop on the side of the road. When exiting the vehicle the drivers side rear tire was facing perpendicular to the road exposing broken metal and frame rail. Luckily no one was killed.

- Monroe, ME, USA

As I was driving down a city street, the right rear suspension control arm came loose from the frame. The right wheel tire subsequently became lodged against the rear of the wheel well at an angle. I was able to maneuver the car to the side of the road. Police arrived to block off the nearest lane so I could safely be towed from the scene, as the car was undrivable. I am fortunate that this did not happen at high speed, as I do not believe I would have safely been able to maintain control of the vehicle. The control arm came loose due to excessive rust on the frame. The area around the mounting location for the arm is torn away from the frame, the nuts and bolts are still attached to the fragments of frame they were originally mounted to. This model year CRV is under recall for excessive corrosion in Canadian provinces where road salt is extensively used in winter. This model was purchased in Minnesota, where road salt is extensively used in winter.

Driving at 30 mph, just got off the highway doing 70 mph, almost at home when making a left turn the drivers side rear wheel broke off of frame, stuck in middle of the road, police had vehicle towed to shop where I was told that the frame had rusted out and car was basically totaled. Could have been killed if happened on highway and or killed someone else. Went online and saw that Honda Canada had a recall for this exact reason. Someone is going to get killed in these 2007-2011 carbs. Why Canada and not usa. This is a very dangerous situation!!!!!

It is more of a concern than a complaint as of right now. Transport Canada has issued a recall for 2007-2011 Honda Cr-vs (https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/saf-sec-sur/7/vrdb-bdrv/search-recherche/detail.aspx?lang=eng&rn=2019025) that operate in Ontario, quebec and maritime Canada where road salt is used for winter road de-icing. I live in state which borders quebec. We have a similar climate and rely heavily on road salt for winter road de-icing. The recall issued by Transport Canada (# 2019025) identifies that road salt can cause the rear frame to rust. And this corrosion could potentially result in a rear-trailing arm separating from the vehicle. Honda has provided a remedy. Vehicles are inspected to ascertain the safety of the vehicle. Vehicles that pass the inspection are applied a sealant to protect against future corrosion. Vehicles that fail the inspection are either repaired or bought back by Honda. Given that usage of road salt in northeastern states that border Canada is most likely comparable to the identified region where the Transport Canada recall applies, shouldn't vehicles operating in regions of the us that rely heavily on road salt be subject to the same level of safety scrutiny?
