PASSENGER SIDE DOOR: I CAN UNLOCK THE PASSENGER DOOR WITH THE KEY FOB AND THEY WILL RE-LOCK THEMSELVES WITHIN 2 SECONDS. FEW DAYS AGO I WENT INTO PHARMACY AND LEFT MY 8 YEAR OLD NIECE IN THE CAR TO PICK UP FEW THINGS. CAME BACK OUT IN ABOUT 5-7 MINUTES AND SHE WAS CRYING HER EYES OUT YELLING AND SCREAMING. I ASKED HER WHAT HAPPENED AS I ENTERED THROUGH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. SHE COULDN'T SPEAK FOR FEW MINUTES BECAUSE OF TEARS. SHE TOLD ME SHE COULDN'T OPEN THE DOOR AND SHE GOT SCARED. ENTIRE FAMILY IS HONDA AND ACURA LOYAL CUSTOMERS. MY FAMILY HAD ENOUGH HONDA PROBLEMS WITH THE 2011 HONDA ACCORD BRAKES MAKING SQUEAKING NOISES AFTER REPLACING BRAKE PADS 2 TIMES. 2003 ACURA TL TRANSMISSION PROBLEM.

AT FIRST THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR TO MY HONDA 2007 CRV UNLOCKS BY ITSELF, EVEN AFTER I LOCK IT WITH THE REMOTE OR MANUALLY. WHEN I SLOW DOWN TO 10 MPR IT WOULD UNLOCK AND LOCK BY ITSELF. NOW, THE DOOR ONLY LOCKS ITSELF, EVEN IF THE DOOR IS LOCKED, IT LOCKS AGAIN, BUT NOW A ANNOYING SQUEAKING LOUD NOISE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE COST IS $375. I AM HOPING NO MORE DOORS WILL NEED REPAIRS TO THE DOOR ACTUATOR AS 4 DOORS @ 375 = A LOT OF MONEY. HONDA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THIS! *TR

FAILURE OF THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. THE REAR DRIVER'S-SIDE DOOR CONTINUALLY UNLOCKS, EVEN DESPITE THE AUTOMATIC LOCK FEATURE. WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN THE BACK, I AM UNABLE TO ENSURE THEIR SAFETY WITH AN UNLOCKED DOOR WHILE DRIVING, OR EVEN WHILE PARKED. ALSO, OUR BELONGINGS ARE AT RISK OF THEFT BECAUSE THAT DOOR IS CONSTANTLY UNLOCKED, EVEN WHEN LOCKED BY HAND. DESPITE OUR EFFORTS, THE DOOR UNLOCKS ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER WE LOCK IT. *TR

FIRST ISSUE WAS RELATED TO FRONT PASSENGER-SIDE DOOR LOCK. THE LOCK CAN ONLY BE UNLOCKED FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OR WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, THE REAR PASSENGER LOCK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BEGAN LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WHEN I WENT ABOVE OR BELOW 10 MILES PER HOUR. MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS PROBABLY THE DOOR ACTUATOR AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. I HAVE NOT DONE THAT TO DATE BECAUSE I VIEWED IT AS MORE NUISANCE THAN SAFETY RELATED. AFTER REVIEWING SOME ONLINE INFORMATION I REALIZED MY FIRST ASSUMPTION MAY BE INCORRECT. I CALLED HONDA NATIONAL TO SEE WHAT THEY HAD ON THIS ISSUE AND POSSIBLE REMEDIES. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS ONLY A THREE YEAR WINDOW FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES; HOWEVER, SINCE THE CAR IS SIX YEARS OLD, I WILL BE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. *TR

MY FIRST INCIDENT THE LAST WEEK OF AUGUST 2013 MY KEYLESS LOCK WOULD NOT LOCK MY CAR AND WOULD BEEP 3X WHEN I WENT TO LOCK IT. IT WOULD STILL STAY OPEN. AFTER A FEW TIMES OF OPENING AND CLOSING MY DOOR IT WAS FINE BUT STILL DID IT OVER A 2 DAY PERIOD THEN IT STOPPED AND WAS FINE. TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4TH AND I PULL IN MY DRIVEWAY, TURN OFF MY CAR AND THE DOOR UNLOCKS AS USUAL, THEN IT LOCKED ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT. I USED MY KEY TO UNLOCK IT AND OPENED MY DOOR QUICKLY TO GET OUT. AS I EXITED MY CAR THE DOOR LOCKED ITSELF BEFORE I COULD EVEN CLOSE MY DOOR AND USE THE KEYLESS REMOTE. EVEN IF I MANUALLY UNLOCK MY DOOR IT WILL LOCK ITSELF IMMEDIATELY RIGHT AFTER. I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2007 HONDA CRV. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD RESULT IN DEATH. LET ME REMIND YOU IT IS SEPTEMBER AND VERY HOT OUTSIDE AND HOTTER IN THE CAR. THIS COULD TRAP ME OR MY PASSENGERS IN MY CAR AND I AM AFRAID. *JB
THIS IS COMPLAINT FOR THE HONDA CR-V 2007 LX MODEL. THE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT LOCK, AFTER LOCKING THE CAR. SO EVERY TIME I LOCK THE CAR, THE DOOR LOCK WOULD RE-OPEN.
