On [XXX] my wife left the house in her 2023 HRV traveling less than one mile when her back glass made a loud pop and shattered. The loud pop startled the wife. We have to travel 40 miles to the dealership for inspection. Not a fun trip for a couple of seniors in mid January.

I was driving down the [XXX] south bound on [XXX]. Around 5:15pm on a rainy and i must have not been going no faster than 60 miles per hour and it was already dark and then all of a sudden you hear an explosion sound noise from the back of the car. I originally thought it was bullet of a sort. I couldn-??t believe the window was broken. How, I asked myself did the window have a hole. How did the glass break. How did this happen. I wanted requested footage from CHP to see if something shot at us. But now I see Honda made a default car. So sad because I love Honda and I feel betrayed by them.

I got into my HRV And closed my driver side door as normal. The back window shattered I was not parked under a tree or anything that could have fallen on the back windshield. I was sitting in the driver seat when it happened. The glass came into the car. I called my dealer, and they said they had not heard of a problem. However, after investigating myself, I found this to be happening to several people owning Honda Anda HRV.
Purchased HRV new and at approximately 3900 miles all warning system lights starting flashing while I was driving. Took car home and checked oil and there was NONE at all. Put oil in and took to dealership who found the Honda manufacturer had not installed the oil filter properly and the car had sprayed oil across the undercarriage of the car while I was on the interstate. If the car had locked up while driving 70 mph due to no oil, my father, brother, and I would have been killed and may have injured/killed someone else. Since getting oil filter installed correctly and oil in the car, the Collision and lane departure warnings continue to display periodically at the initial starting of the car saying the those systems have issues and to see the dealership. I have taken car to the dealership 3 times and once they connected it to a diagnostic machine which said "I had a code" and those codes were supposedly corrected, but the same warnings remain. It is not reproduceable and I have not been able to capture a pic of the occurrance. I believe running out of oil has damaged the warning systems and needs to be replaced or Honda should provide me a new car for my current car (10,700 miles).
I drove approximately three miles with my rear window defogger on. I parked in the garage (always parked in garage). The next morning I came out to a shattered rear window! Not using the defogger is not an option in Western New York. I am concerned of the safety aspect, if this happens while driving. Rear window seems very thin. I have pictures of the window. I had no warning or sounds previously. Vehicle only has 6800 miles on it. I'm currently waiting for a replacement window.
Closed my front passenger side door and the rear hatchback glass completely shattered. Hundreds of pieces of shattered glass were now inside the rear lift gate section of my vehicle. The glass shattered around the edges and in the center. Some remained around the edges but continued to fall out at the slightest movement, such as when I got in the vehicle and closed my door to call the dealership. Contacted my dealership who said there were no recalls on my vehicle and they stated they had not heard of this, though I've seen many similar complaints here. Dealership suggested I place a claim through my insurance company. It hardly seems fair to me that my insurance should foot the bill for an obvious manufacturing defect on Honda's part.
Side window shattered on its own. Luckily it was parked and no one was inside the vehicle. This will be the second time, same story, just a different window with this car.
The rear window spontaneously shattered today. It was a cold morning approximately 35 degrees. Car was auto-started to warm it up. After driving the care for approximately 1/2 mile and while stopped at a stop light, the rear glass spontaneously shattered.
I was parked outside of a restaurant and the back door windshield exploded. Luckily I was parked in front of a security camera. The police were called and determined that nothing external affected the vehicle, nobody was near the vehicle, and nothing hit the windshield. The police did inspect the vehicle itself and the surrounding area, and watched the camera footage to make this determination. This resulted in me having to drive home on the highways as my windshield continued to fall apart (I was unable to collect all of the pieces before driving home). It was extremely dangerous to drive knowing the rest of the exploded windshield was cracking and pieces were entering my trunk. If this happened while I was driving or when someone was near the car, this could have caused serious injury. There are many claims of brand new 2023 Honda HRVs having this issue. I have located multiple complaints online. I called the dealership and they stated they were aware of this; however because there was no settled class action lawsuit they would not assist with investigation or repairs. I had the car repaired at another mechanic and all was well. A week ago, without warning, the trunk completely stopped opening and I am now unable to use the lift gate to open the truck. I did obtain a police report and I have a photo that I can upload but this website will not let me.
Rear windshield exploded while the vehicle was parked in the garage. The glass formed a dome outwards in the center of the windshield approximately 1.5 inches.
The vehicle was parked in my carport, and when I opened the door to get inside, the rear window (rear windshield) shattered. There was no foreign object, it wasn't hit by anything, it just shattered.
I was driving to work at 6:52am when my rear windshield spontaneously shattered. There was no proof of impact or anything when I inspected the windshield. I did not have my rear defroster on nor did I rinse my car with hot water prior to driving. I do have photos and videos but the link will not allow me to upload, the button disappears when I click it.
I was driving my car and suddenly my rear windshield shattered. I thought somebody throw something but no one was around my car and I could not find any object in car. Then I checked online about this issue and HRV forum has multiple incidents reported similar to this one. This is manufactured issue and low quality product issue. I am very disappointed with Honda. Their service was below par and now I came to know about recall for seatbelts issue. We don-??t get call from dealer and not recieved any communication letter.
