The mechanical design of the turn signal lever (joystick, as I call it) is such that it requires too little pressure in order to be pushed forward which activates the high beam headlights. In simple terms, using the turn signals turns on the high beams accidentally on this vehicle. This causes a couple safety issues. Firstly, other drivers and oncoming traffic could be unnecessarily blinded by high beams if I have not noticed that my high beams have been accidentally turned on. Secondly, it creates a situation where I (driver) have to spend more time looking at the instrument panel than is necessary. While driving at night, I either have to additionally glance at the instrument panel or take a longer glance while checking my speed in order to know if the high beams have been activated accidentally. Turn signal joysticks have been around longer than I have, and we all know how to use them. They are simple, basic safety features and there seems no reason why a manufacturer should botch these at this point. Date of incident listed date that I took possession of the vehicle, as this is ongoing issue.

I was pulling into a parking space, approximately 5 mph, applying the brakes to stop when the vehicle suddenly accelerated and was only stopped when it hit a concrete barrier.

While driving the vehicle, the "collision mitigation braking system" activated for no apparent reason. Honda owners manual states this has 3 stages of warnings. This particular incident was definitely a stage 3 warning. I was driving at approx. 40-45 mph on a straight stretch of road with the closets vehicle in front of me probably a 1/4 mile ahead. The car all of sudden braked very hard for no reason to the point it actually threw me forward in the seat, almost came to a complete stop, and had a car behind me been closer, they likely would have rear ended me. This is the second such incident I've had with the vehicle and feel it causes a very unsafe condition.

I have a 6 month old CRV. Since I bought it in Feb 2018, I have experienced issues with the bluetooth hands-free calling function. I can hear calls fine, but the person on the other end cannot hear me due to background/ambient noise. The issue is specifically exacerbated by speed - 40 mph and above, getting worse as I drive faster. This presents a safety issue because I find myself having to fiddle with my phone to take the call off bluetooth. Obviously not ideal for safety. Furthermore, I made a 911 call on July 4, while driving on the highway. The 911 operator could not hear me!! I had to once again take the phone off bluetooth in order to be heard. I reported the issue to Honda directly and to my dealer/service center. The service center also contacted Honda regarding the issue, and were advised by Honda engineers to replace the microphone, which they have done. Nevertheless, the issue persists.

Rising oil level due to contamination of oil with fuel and water, 2018 Honda CRV ex. On June 18, 2018, while my wife was traveling at 70 mph on cruise control, every computer assisted warning unexpectedly evented on the dash (hill assist, acc, collision mitigation, brake system, cel, TPMS, road departure, traction, power steering, vsa), the CRV immediately and harshly self-braked (out of the control of the driver). The Honda dealership service personnel determined that this occurred due to the oil level in the direct-injected earth dreams 1.5L reaching a level of 21mm above the current limit (the resolution given by Honda tech-line was to change the oil and filter every 500 miles). Had my wife been followed by another vehicle she certainly would have been rear-ended, injured and possibly killed. This is a well known issue with the direct-injected 1.5L earth dreams turbo engine. Honda has no fix for it, and can only recommend that we change the oil every 500 miles. To date, since the initial occurrence on 6/18/2018, we've had the CRV back to the same dealership to change the oil and filter an average of every 2 weeks (7/5/2018, 7/19/2018, and 8/3/2018). We'll be returning to the dealership by 8/17/2018 for yet another oil and filter change, this vehicle is unsafe to drive, when under cruise control, due to the oil contamination, the rising oil level, causing the unexpected firing of computer assisted features.

Vehicle is locked overnight. Key fob is on storage hook. In the morning, the windows and sunroof are open without driver intervention. Happens randomly at other times as well. There is no way to disengage the "quick cooldown" feature which is somehow being activated randomly without driver intervention. Obviously a safety issue when car is parked in public areas. Honda denies problem. Hundreds of similar complaints about this issue on cargurus.com, suggesting a chronic problem. In my specific case, replacement of the key fob seems to have solved the problem, but it is a problem that should still be investigated because there should be a way to disengage this particular feature.

Went to start the car, put the key in the ignition but the key did not turn, I thought the steering wheel had locked on me but that was mot the case, the car had to be towed to the dealer where after 5 days still remains. They explain that the key cylinder component is bad and has to be replaced. Waiting for the part and all locks in the car have to be replaced.

The automatic gear selector has no indicator on it. Additionally, depending on angle driver is sitting, it appears to be in a different gear or position than actual selection. I have had three near misses due to this design. From being in neutral and rolling down hill backwards when I thought I had it in drive, to being in neutral instead of park. After 30 years of driving, this is the first car I've driven that had no infictator to show what gear I was in.

Today, I was driving along the highway when my sunroof suddenly and spontaneously exploded. Visual inspection showed that the sunroof exploded outward and there was no debris or impact that would have caused this breakage. I was driving with my infant son when this occurred. Luckily, I had the shade closed.

On December 12, 2017 at about 4:30 pm, the collision mitigation braking system failed and put my car into a panic stop when I was not about to have a collision with the car in front of me. I was driving East along a 4 lane undivided highway in the right lane (slow lane) at about 45 miles per hour approaching a traffic signal that was green. There was a car ahead of me in the slow lane at the signal, slowed down to make a right hand turn. I was 5 or 6 car lengths behind this car and in no danger of colliding with him. Without any warning, my car applied the brakes in a full panic stop. Fortunately there was no vehicle behind me. There was no collision with any other vehicles, but my right hip and lower right back were sore for several weeks. I reported the incident to my insurance company and to the dealer that sold me the car. On the dealer's suggestion, I set the forward collision warning distance to "short"; it had been set at "normal", the factory setting. Most days I manually turn the collision mitigation braking system off before I drive, but on the days I have forgotten, the problem has not re-occurred with the forward collision warning distance set to "short". I believe that if there was a vehicle behind me when the problem happened, he may have collided with the back of my car and caused me further injury. I thought for the safety of others, I should report this problem to you.

Had backup sensors installed by the dealership, jenkins &wynn; clarksville, tn. The back up sensor beep volume is so low that they are inaudible to myself. My wife can barely hear the beeps. The sensors cannot be heard at all if the vehicle audio is turned up at all. The backup sensors user's information manual does not provide any warning stating the beep volume is extremely low/inaudible to hearing impaired people. Also, the manual also does not state that when the backup sensors are activated, that the audio is neither muted or lowered so the driver can hear the beeps. Drivers may be accustomed to other vehicles back up sensors systems that lower radio volume and have beeps loud enough to be heard by all drivers, including hearing impaired. I believe that on top of the fact that Honda is deceiving customers who are expecting standard backup sensor activity; such as loud/audible beeps or the lowering of the vehicles audio volume when the sensors are activated; there are no warnings in the manual alerting drivers to these non-industry standards. I believe these failures to notify drivers/owners may cause to unsafe conditions during backing that can seriously injure or cause the death of someone during backing.

Today my wife went to church she used a purse that is small and had the key fob in a tight outer pocket. She noticed when she came out the windows were down and the sunroof was open ! lucky it was just starting to very lightly rain ! I know you press unlock and then press again and hold down to do this function but I guess the tight purse did that on its own. Would like to disable it if possible. There needs to be a way to disable this feature.

Returning to Maryland from Indiana in several locations along I-70, I-79, I-68 auto braking engaged for no reason at all. Road crews plow with blade slightly above pavement possibly avoiding damage to rumble strip so we can't see lane divider lines or edge of road solid line when accidently touch the rumble strip brakes engage immediately when beeps alone should suffice. Other times it appeared the system thought we were about to have a head on collision and again braked suddenly and often. We think the headlights of cars way off in the distance where trees near them created a kind of strobe effect fooled the sensors where ever they are. I had to cancel all safety systems to avoid more problems like this. Solution recommended: Require Honda to allow us to turn off auto braking in bad weather so sensors don't cause panic to drivers not understanding what's happening. When roads are slick as ours were you really don't want vehicles sliding out of control because of a system intended to keep us safe. I can tell you drivers around us thought we were intentionally trying to cause mischief and I'm certain the only reason we did not have an accidental is because I put blizzac snow tires on my 2018 CRV touring and kept my thumb over the cancel button so I could recover quickly but eventually had to disable all that because it happened too often. I get cramps in my leg when I can't use cruise control and I paid a lot of money so I would be able to use adaptive cruise and other safety systems that simply made this car more dangerous. I'm angry, frustrated and want something done about this!!! yes roads were sloppy, slick and traveling below speed limit of 70 because of conditions. Only when we got to Maryland did conditions improve. Had to drive 1/3 of our 550 mile trip with these problems happening disengaging entirely after hagaarstown md. Can't trust it.

While driving on I-95 over an open road with no overpasses in Georgia with no traffic in front of the vehicle for at least 20 car lengths, the sun roof exploded. The car had 2400 miles on it and the sun roof had never been operated. The sky was clear and the morning temp was in the upper 30S. The roof cover was closed. The glass blew outward from the center with a tremendous bang causing me to come close to looking control. I pulled over as soon as I could. Most of the glass had blown over the car on to the roadway. Some of the fractured edges blew back on to the cover. This would have stuck the driver, a front seat and rear seat passenger with significant force had the internal cover not been closed. There was a good chance the driver would have lost control had he been injured by the glass. Fortunately he was driving at just under the 70 mph speed limit on a straight section of road with little traffic. The driver is a retired engineer. The front seat passenger is an aerospace engineer. Based on our experience the failure is clearly a design or manufacturing issue. It is a new vehicle less than a month old. The outward nature of the explosion and lack of any indication of fod support this. Unlike any other car glass failure I have seen this small piece of glass blew up into thousands of loose pieces endangering both occupants and vehicles in close proximity. A photo is attached.
