CarComplaints.com Notes: Some vehicles alert you if you fall asleep behind the wheel, but the 2015 Honda CR-V has a different approach: just shake the heck out of you so you never fall asleep in the first place.
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Car had low engine oil light come on. Dealership diagnosed it as excessive oil consumption, and suggested piston rings replacement, estimated cost $3000. The mileage on car was 84,155 and always had timely oil change done at same dealership. Similar issue was apparently for CRV 08-11 models (https://static.NHTSA.gov/ODI/tsbs/2018/mc-10152429-0001.pdf).
In every statement/complaint at the service center, I always stated that the front seats vibrate when the engine is on and in gear. After reviewing sb 15-046, the initial repair in 2016 was for driving mode 1. on the second repair in 2017, the technician performed driving mode 2 repair without notifying me via phone or in person about the repair in accordance with the sb 15-046. Sb 15-046 states, for driving mode 2 update notes: -you must make sure the service advisor has reviewed the customer information statement for driving mode 2 with the customer before the software update is performed. -verify that the service advisor has noted on the customer information statement that he or she has reviewed the customer information statement for driving mode 2 with the customer. -the noted customer information statement must be retained for future records and attached to the repair order before doing the software update, as this software may have a small impact on fuel economy. All of the notes on the sb 15-046 were skipped when Honda of serramonte was repairing my car. In the diagnosis section on page 6 of sb 15-046. 'you must only perform the repair based on customer concerns.' Everything performed on the car or comments from the technician is record in the service invoice. To this day, I was never informed of the driving mode 2 update in accordance with sb 15-046. Nor, did I sign the customer information statement because the service invoice from Jul. 1, 2017 does not mention any customer information statement from sb 15-046.

When I am going up roads towards any down roads, that means any up position to down position then my car stopping and not moving forward and the engine making big noise. I feel the engine trying to shut off itself. It is very dangerous for me also for other drivers on road. Other drivers thinking I pressed my brake but not. I am not pressing brake. My vehicle is Honda CRV 2015 and mileage is 62000.
Car cuts out shortly after starting while backing out of driveway several times per week. Restarts after stopping, and putting in park. Has happened 75-100 times from 2019-now(4/29/20)
Serpentine belt broke at just over 38,000 miles. I had just gotten off I95, no lights on the dash, nothing unusual happening. Upon breaking to slow down, there was a bad smell and then smoke. This was in less than 1 block from the exit.
2015 Honda CRV front seat vibrates. It was supposed to fixed in accordance to tsb 15-046. The vibrations is still apparent after 20K miles later. When my CRV is stopped with vehicle in gear (at a stop sign or red light). I took it back to the dealership and the technician a marking the issue as normal vibrations. This is just another way for Honda not taking responsibility for the poor engineering. I am very concerned that the vibrations will eventually loosen up the seat bolts. There are a few videos of 2015 Honda CRV front seat vibrations on youtube.
The problem I am facing with my vehicle is when it is motion, sometimes it loses strength in the engine. This also happens when I try to climb high elevation roads. Looking on the web I found my issue in the following recall "17V305000" and the description is the following: "the reduced performance may result in an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash." I have taken my vehicle to the dealer, triangle Honda, and I have followed all its recommendations of arrangement which have been the following: Replacement of the starter, replacement of spark plugs, replacement of injectors, change of engine oil, etc... none of the following nothing they have recommended and repaired has solved the problem. I ask you with favor and with great respect that due to the seriousness of the situation, which can lead me to an accident, consider adding my vehicle to the recall "17V305000" because according to the summary of it needs a replacement of the engine.

I'm having continued issues with the engine's vtc rattling and random engine speeds. It has been repaired once but the rattle ahas returned and is worse. No service lights are present.
In early 2018, around the 80K mileage mark the oil light came on. The car was due for it's oil to be changed, checked the oil level and it appeared dry. Purchased a 5 qt bottle and emptied almost all 5 quarts into the oil tank. The car had been sounding funny for a couple of weeks, but never considered the oil level an issue or the cause of the funny sounds. Once I filled the tank the sound disappeared. Had the oil changed by the dealership 2 days later and commented on the issue. An oil consumption test was recommended. Went back at 1000 miles after the oil change and was told all was fine. Skipped further oil consumption testing at this point. At the next oil change (5K miles later) was told my tank was down nearly 4 quarts. Decided to go through the oil consumption test again. 1st test, down 1 quart 2nd test down 3/4 quart 3rd test down 3/4 quart. Was told by service manager that 1 quart/1000 miles, is considered acceptable my Honda standards/policy. A search of the internet revealed that there are many other 2015 Honda CRV owners with the same complaint with no resolution/satisfaction by Honda. This issue with excessive oil consumption may lead to premature wear on engine parts and possible engine fire since dealership can't explain why there is excessive oil being consumed or possibly leaking when on the highway.
I was driving car on city street about 40 miles hours, tried to accelerate twice, car started slowing down. The third time I tried to accelerate. The car finally begin to accelerate. The second time was driving on city street and went to yield right of was before making a right turn. I slowed to yield then accelerated the car stalled as it was stopped. I tried to accelerate again and then the care accelerated slowly. Another car came through red light and was right on my bumper when my car stalled. This is very dangerous.
My problem with my Honda CRV happens first thing in the morning but intermittent. So when backing the car out of garage it will feel like it's gonna to stall or shake sometimes stalls car or almost stalls. I have taken the car to dealer but unable to duplicate problem. My first time to dealer and told them of problem was told Honda was aware of problem and I would be contacted once they had a fix. I'm still waiting. I also bought to other dealerships and no luck. I still have vehicle warranty and hoping to get problem fixed. Thanks for your time, corey
The motor stalls when making pulling away from a dead stop. I have noticed this in particular when making a turn from a dead stop. It has almost got me hit a few times and this has happened numerous times. I contacted my dealer when this first happened and they said it needed a software update which they did, it didn't fix the problem. It doesn't do it all the time as it is sporadic but when it does do it it makes it very dangerous when making a turn and oncoming traffic is coming towards me. Honda will not address this issue with this vehicle for me.
