Windshield wipers throw out fluid when wipers are up. Windshield not cleaned properly from snow and dirt causing not to see the road. Snow is coming again.
The 2024 Honda CRV windshield wiper do not fully wipe rain water on the driver side, leaving 3" 1/2 on driver pillar that is untouched by the windshield wiper. This reduces driver visibility during rain. Due to this concerns my wife do not feel safe driving this vehicle in the rain or snow.
Drivers side outside side mirror spontaneously cracked from top to bottom while parked in the cold weather. There was no impact or other damage to cause such a crack. It makes is difficult to see to change lanes.
Vehicle purchased new, in October 2023. During October, 2024, the drivers side rear view mirror developed a vertical crack, about an inch from the right edge. There is no damage to the vehicle / mirror housing. There was no impact. There was no significant temperature change. I just walked to my car one morning to see the mirror cracked.

On driving to the other side of the state from my home to visit family on [XXX] in Michigan, I was driving 70-75 miles per hour. It takes close to 3 hours of driving one way. There was a lot of insects hitting my windshield and when I used the wipers the water just flew over the windshield, not getting my window wet to enable the wipers to clean my windshield. If I am driving 30-50 miles per hour that doesn't happen. I could not get my windshield clean of the bugs which inpaired my vision. I talked with the service department and they said it is the way the wipers are made and they can not do anything about it. I did call Honda Customer Care Line and I have a case #[XXX]. They told me to contact you because it can be a hazard when traveling, which I do often to see my family. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Both side mirrors shake vigorously while driving at any speed. It is very hard to focus and see the image in the side mirrors. Most of the time I have to use the rear view mirror to see behind me. The shaking is so severe that sometimes if I-??m looking at the side mirror trying to see it will make my head hurt.
The windshield washer is placed on the wiper blade. When you try to get water on the windshield it blows off before the wiper blade can actually touch it to clean the windshield. Without water, the debris on the windshield will only smear. I had this happen on the interstate and tried to clean the windshield and the windshield became impossible to see through. I had to stop on the side of the interstate and pour water from my water bottle on the windshield so that I could drive the car. I spoke to a worker in the Service Department at the Honda dealership in Murfreesboro, Tn. He agreed that the design was a problem but said there was nothing he could do to fix it.

The backup camera image is shown as black and white, not color, and has poor resolution. With the black and white image and poor resolution, it is hard to determine exactly what is behind the vehicle when backing up, particularly in conditions of reduced lighting. The backup camera system was inspected by Honda dealership service and confirmed to have an issue. The display screen unit was replaced, but the backup camera image is still shown as black and white and has poor resolution. Another service appointment has been made.
When putting the car in reverse, the rear camera image is usually black and white instead of color, which is unsafe because of the lack of contrast. It will also strobe between black and white and color, which is also unsafe and annoying. I took it to the dealer today (All Star Honda in Abilene TX) and they said Honda knows about the problem but doesn't have a fix yet. I've looked online at the Honda CR-V Owners Group and Redditt and see many complaints posted...so I'm guessing NHTSA knows about it, but just wanted to make sure....and I want my brand new car defect fixed....and I want Honda to stop manufacturing cars with this known defect.
After driving a car through a rainstorm, and trying to back up into a parking space on a city street, Big blobs of water drops appeared on the rear camera making it impossible to see backing up. Many people report this on social media sites.
Rear View mirror crashed without any outside impact. Car was in standing and rear view mirror cracked without no external reason in a new car just withing 30 days. Honda probably used low quality mirror or assembly was not proper.
Driver side mirror. The mirror looks very distorted and shakes significantly when driving. The view from my driver side mirror looks worse at night, which is when I do most of my driving. Headlights from other cars affect the view from my driver side mirror and give off a terrible reflection. I have taken my vehicle to Honda dealer and they stated they did not notice any distorted images or shaking. I have had this vehicle for barely 2 weeks and have had no luck in finding the a solution.
A crack appeared on the passenger side mirror for no obvious reason. It might have been caused by the temperature change from -2?C at night to 7?C in the morning, but I'm not sure. No impact signs, crack has curved U shape form.
On March 09, 2024 as I was backing into a parking space, the rear vehicle wheels came into contact with the parking curb at which point the rear window shattered. The pieces of the window flew in many directions approximately up to 5 to 10 feet outside and into the rear cargo area of the vehicle where I had my dogs. Fortunately, there were no other persons around the vehicle at the time and my dogs were not harmed. Immediately after this incident, I called the car dealer where I originally purchased the vehicle, and was advised to bring it in. I thereafter brought the vehicle to the car dealer service center where they removed some of the remaining pieces still attached to the window area and covered the window with plastic. Thereafter I drove the vehicle home, returned with the vehicle to the dealer on March 12, 2024, and the dealer replaced the window on March 13, 2024 at which time I retrieved my vehicle and returned the loaner car to the dealer. The window appeared to be replaced with a different type of window than the original. I asked the dealer why this occurred, the response was that they did not know why and further stated that this issue of shattering rear windows occurred in the 2023 HR-V models, but they were not aware of an issue in the CR-V models. I purchased the vehicle on February 7, 2024 and prior to this incident I had no problems with the vehicle to include the rear window. The invoice from the car service center states that there were no signs of impact on the vehicle.
The driver side rearview mirror vibrates at speeds of 65 MPH or greater. Vibrations cause the image in the mirror to distort and shake making it difficult to see important objects. The problem was confirmed by the same dealership that sold the car. The dealership replaced the driver side rearview mirror, but the replacement mirror has the same issue.
Driver side mirror got cracked itself. Car was parked in driveway and there was no crack in mirror until previous night. 2 days ago there was snow and temperature was around 30f. This seems to be safely hazard considering it-??s now distracting while driving.
