The radio/head unit screen suddenly dimmed to the lowest level while driving making the screen unreadable. The screen shows radio details, Google Maps, Phone and many climate control functions. Access to the screen is needed while driving in order to change climate control settings, etc. Pressing the brightness buttons did nothing and so I had to pull over. The only way to address the issue was the restart the car. This is a known safety issue with this model year CRV and Honda won't repair (update the software) without payment. As a safety defect this should be covered under warranty or recall.

In May of 2022, my CRV showed many warning messages for nearly every system in the vehicle including emissions, brakes, power steering, vehicle stability assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation and several others. A friend had the same thing happen except he was traveling at 70mph and experienced a very serious, life-changing car crash. I had my vehicle towed to Honda dealer and was told there was a misfire on cylinder 3 (PO303) and that cylinder 1 looked worn as well. They replaced spark plugs on those cylinders (though I requested they do all 4 at once) and the A/C unit. Apparently this is a "known problem" to Honda but I was never told things to watch for, or to bring the vehicle in for service, until it was inoperable. The dealership gave me a copy of Service Bulletin 19-032 by Honda-- dated June 18, 2019 and said the "good news" was they would extend my warranty for an additional year. If there were another issue, I would not be on the hook for repairs. Only 6 months later, all of the same warning lights came on again-- this time as I was driving my 3-year-old to daycare. I pulled over and again had the vehicle towed. The dealer reports the same diagnostic codes and issues, but this time says their repair flow chart indicates the next step is a $1500 fuel injector replacement. Somehow, despite being distinctly related, it is not covered by the extended warranty. To my understanding, fuel injectors do not generally need replacing in my area before about 100,000 miles. My vehicle has 70,000 miles on it. My question is, what if this costly repair works for 6 months & then I have the same systems malfunctioning again" What's next on the flow chart & how much will that cost? Most importantly, what if I'm driving at 70mph with my toddler in the back seat when the brake systems go out?" Honda knows this is a serious problem & should have responded more meaningfully years ago. I've loved my CRV but can no longer drive it with confidence.

When pressing with my thumb the button to shift to reverse, the button popped out. Upon examining the button, the end was broken off. With much effort, my husband was able to press it in enough to get it in reverse and then forward. He had to leave the car running when he bought the parts at Honda to fix it. He then brought the parts to a local mechanic and he was able to fix it. The mechanic told him that many tiny pieces had to be cleaned out of the section where the button belongs.

air conditioning temperature does not work. no matter what degree, the hot air stays the same, including the lowest degree on the air conditioner register "low". There are no warning lights displayed and there are no leaks detected. I am seeing many other complaints like this and mentions of recalls, but I cannot find a recall notification anywhere. I have less than 26,000 miles on my 2017 car.

Parasitic battery draw. I-??m being told this is what is causing my repeated issues, I-??ve had the car for 3 years and have replaced the battery 4 times. All warning lights keep cycling despite consistently having it looked at for diagnosing. Today the car would barely move- it powered on just fine, but despite depressing the gas pedal- it would barely move more than 5 miles per hour causing severe risk in the road

I started my car and shifted into reverse. The silver part of the gear shift popped of and fell into the foot well. I was able to pick it up and hold it in place and shift the car but it is clearly not safe.

- Old Town, ME, USA

The gear shift button popped off while the car was in drive. The plastic broke, making it impossible to reattach. In order to switch the gear, I had to reach into the gear shift with my finger to manually press down where the button was. It would have been impossible to quickly shift my gear if I had needed.

2017 Honda CR-V. Driving and when arrived to destination went to put car into park and the shifter button was missing. Found it on the floor of the vehicle. The plastic on the button that is inserted had broken. Had trouble getting car into park. Did feel safe to drive. Called dealership they said there was a recall with a range of vin #'s, but my vehicle wasn't in that range. Very bizarre that it happened. Obviously, a defective part and Honda should cover it. Important piece to have just broken like it did.

April 23, 2022 my son was driving my vehicle in the downtown city. He found a place to parallel park and placed the gear shifter in reverse when he was done he went to place the gear shifter in park, but there was no button on the gear shifter to press in and after I freaked out, my son found the plastic piece on the floor. After many tries, he was finally able to put the knob on the gear shifter to place the vehicle in park. My question, why is that particular part made in plastic? The part that actually attaches to the gear shifter should be out of steel and the button part that is actually touched daily can be made out of plastic. Just a suggestion.

In an incident dated March 28, 2022 a Woodbury, MN, driver attempted to shift from -??Park-?? to -??Reverse-?? to back out of the garage into the driveway, only to look down and find the shift button missing. They searched for the button and found it on the console, having fallen off while in -??Reverse.-?? At the very least, this is an inconvenience. At the very worst, this affects the driver-??s control over the car, and it may be disastrous in any situation in which they need to shift into or out of -??Reverse-?? or "Park" very quickly.

I was driving north on I-75 at about 70 mph. The car suddenly braked for a brief moment. It was sudden but only for a brief second. It felt like a lurch maybe" I'm not sure what it was. First time I've ever experienced anything like it but it was a little frightening. I've got 50K miles on it. 2017 Honda CRV. Right before that happened the "Auto High-beam Problem" message came up on the dash, although it was daylight and my headlights were in the off position. Should I keep driving it"

My 2017 Honda CR-V Gear Shifter Button popped out and fell apart. Luckily my car was not in motion on a busy freeway when this occurred otherwise it would have been very dangerous for my life and could have caused an accident. I see lots of reports of broken 2017 Honda CR-V Shifter Button on the internet so this is a well known problem that Honda must be made to fix for the poor quality product part that they have installed in their 2017 Honda CR-V car. Honda https://owners.honda.com/service-maintenance/recalls site does not show any recall/repair for my car's VIN which is surprising.

While driving my 2017 Honda CR-V I was shifting from park to drive & the button on the shift knob broke off & I couldn-??t put it back in park. This is a serious safety issue with many complaints. Very disappointed there is not a recall on this issue yet.

- Mcdonough , GA, USA

Pulled out of a parking spot, and after shifting into drive, I heard a pop. Then when I got home, and pulled into the garage to park, realized the shift button was missing and that I couldn't get the car into park. After much finagling, I was able to get into park. We then found the button that had broken off on the floor. With this button broken off the car is inoperable due to not being able to shift the gears. This is a problem that has been reported before on this vehicle and some of the vehicles have been recalled for this problem. I called the dealership and was told my vehicle was not part of that recall, but they were aware of this problem.

When the vehicle is not driven for a few days, battery is dead. There is a parasitic drain going on with the battery and Honda is not addressing this problem. This has happened numerous times. The battery has been replaced twice but problem still exists. Dealer cannot fix this issue. Have read reports of vehicle stopping while people are driving it because the battery dies.
