2007 Honda CR-V

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE WAS UNABLE TO GET IN HER VEHICLE WITH THE LOCK SYSTEM. AFTER THE VEHICLE FINALLY UNLOCKED, SHE HAD ISSUES GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 71,000.

MY SON GOT IN THE VEHICLE TO TAKE HIS WIFE TO PICK UP HER CAR AND THE SEATBELT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WAS LOCKED. WE TRIED EVERYTHING WE COULD THINK OF AND WASN'T ABLE TO UNLOCK IT. LOCAL BODY SHOP COULDN'T GET IT UNLOCKED 1/28/2013 AND SAID IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. JUST WONDERING IF THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, IF SO WE WEREN'T NOTIFIED. 100,000 PLUS MILES VEHICLE AT SHOP AT PRESENT TIME. *TR

THIS THING HAPPENED OVER A YEAR & NOW IT EVEN WORSE. ALL LOCK SYS. WILL AUTO LOCK BY THEMSELVES AFTER I PRESSED UNLOCK FOR 2 SECONDS; WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE ROAD, ALL FOUR DOOR-LOCKS MAKE THE SOUND TOO LOUD WITH LOCK & UNLOCK BY THEMSELVES UNTIL I GET HOME. I REMEMBER ONE TIME; WHEN I TOOK A FLYER THAT STUCK ON MY WINDSHIELD BEFORE I DROVE HOME; SUDDENLY, MY DOOR HAD LOCKED BY THE WIND. THAT MADE ME CRAZY TO FIND THE WAY TO OPEN IT BECAUSE MY LITTLE BOY (10 MONTHS) WAS INSIDE & BEING LOCKED! I HAVE TO ASK FOR HELP FROM A LOCKSMITH. FOR 20 MINUTES STANDING OUTSIDE & SEE MY LITTLE BOY'S CRYING WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING TO HELP HIM!!!!!! NOW : BOTH REAR DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED! WHENEVER I LOCK THEM BY THE REMOTE OR MANUALLY. BUT MY FRONT DOORS ARE KEEP LOCKING AFTER TWO SECONDS . I'M SO WORRIED THAT SOME DAY PEOPLE WILL FIND OUT MY SECRET ( ABOUT DOORS NOT LOCKING) & MY CAR WILL BE GONE! I ASKED THE DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TO FIX THAT ?? ALMOST $ 400.00 PER DOOR (AFTER TAX) ! HOW CAN I HANDLE THAT AMOUNT FOR THINGS TO BE FIX WHICH THEY ARE NOT MY FAULT! CAN SOME ONE TELL ME WHAT SHOULD I DO ?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE WAS ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION WITHOUT THE TRANSMISSION BEING IN PARK. AS THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE, IT ROLLED AWAY. THE CONTACT IMMEDIATELY PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL AND DID NOT STOP UNTIL IT CRASHED INTO SOME BARN WOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 67,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 69,000...UPDATED 03/18/13 *BF UPDATED 04/02/2013 *JS

PROBLEM STARTED WITH DRIVER-SIDE REAR LOCKS. WOULD NOT ALWAYS LOCK, CONSTANTLY TRIED TO RELOCK ITSELF WHILE DRIVING, AND MADE RATTLING SOUND. PROBLEM HAS SPREAD TO ALL DOORS. DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK AT ALL. PASSENGER-SIDE REAR LOCK WILL NOT UNLOCK. HATCH WILL NOT OPEN. OTHER DOORS RELOCK THEMSELVES IMMEDIATELY SO YOU HAVE LESS THAN ONE SECOND TO OPEN DOOR. USING THE KEY ITSELF MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. *TR

I WAS AT THE CABIN FINISHING UP SOME CHORES. WENT TO PUT SOME TOOLS IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE HONDA CRV AND THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE BACK HATCH. THE DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED WITH OUT GREAT DIFFICULTY FROM THE INSIDE AND NOT AT ALL FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE HATCH COULD BE OPENED ALSO ONLY FROM THE INSIDE AFTER CRAWLING OVER THE SEATS AND ONLY AFTER REMOVING THE LATCH PANEL AND MANUALLY FLIPPING THE LATCH. AFTER I GOT HOME I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND THE INTERNET IS FULL OF SUCH PROBLEMS. I UNDERSTAND THAT SOME MODELS OF CRV 2006 AND OLDER HAD A RECALL. OF COURSE MINE IS A 2007. PROBLEMS WITH THE LATCH AND ACTUATOR ARE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AS IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE BOTH OF THESE EGRESSES OUT OF THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE EITHER BY THE OCCUPANTS OR RESCUE PERSONNEL. THE COST TO GET THIS REPAIRED IS SIGNIFICANT LEAVING THE POTENTIAL FOR THE PROBLEM NOT TO BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AUTOMATIC LOCK MALFUNCTION. AT TIMES WOULD NOT OPEN/ AT TIMES WOULD NOT LOCK. WHEN I USE THE MASTER CONTROL (ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR) OR THE KEY FOB, THE PASSENGER SIDE LOCK CONTINUALLY CLICKS. ALSO THE LOCKS CONTINUE TO CLICK OPEN AND LOCKED AS I DRIVE (ESPECIALLY WHEN I SPEED UP FROM A STOP.) I HAVE HEARD THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS. *TR

THE MECHANICS OF THE DOOR LOCKS HAVE BECOME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE BEGINNING FIRST WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND THEN SPREADING TO THE RIGHT SIDE REAR PASSENGER DOOR, DRIVER DOOR, AND REAR HATCH. ALL OF THE DOORS RANDOMLY LOCK AND UNLOCK AND MAKE A LOUD RATTLING SOUND WHILE DOING SO. THE RIGHT SIDE REAR DOOR NO LONGER UNLOCKS FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE REAR HATCH ONLY OPENS 5% OF THE TIME WE ATTEMPT TO OPEN IT (WHICH IS A NIGHTMARE WHEN IT IS FULL OF LUGGAGE OR GROCERIES). THE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY WITH A KEY... ONLY THE FOB KEY. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM AND AM SHOCKED THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY HONDA. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

IN AUGUST, 2010, WE PURCHASED 4 GOODYEAR ASSURANCE FUEL MAX TIRES. ON DECEMBER 7, 2012 , MY WIFE AND I EXPERIENCED A BLOW OUT TO OUR REAR TIRE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE-95 IN FLORIDA AT A HIGH SPEED ((70MPH) CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF OUR 2007 HONDA CRV. WE SWERVING ACROSS SIX LANES OF TRAFFIC, ALMOST FLIPPED, AND NARROWLY AVOIDED CRASHING INTO CONCRETE A WALL BEFORE I FINALLY OBTAINED CONTROL OF THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO PULLEY OFF ONTO THE EMERGENCY LANE. OUR VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY GOODYEAR IN OCTOBER, AND THE TIRES WERE INSPECTED AND ROTATED AT THAT TIME. AT THE TIME OF THE BLOWOUT, THE TIRES ONLY HAD 27,000 MILES ON THEM. THEY ARE WARRANTIED FOR 65,000 MILES. WE CONTACTED THE GOODYEAR STORE THE NEXT DAY, AND THE MANAGER INSPECTED THE TIRE AND COULD NOT DETERMINE WHY THE TIRE BLEW OUT. HE ASKED IF WE HIT SOMETHING. WE DIDN'T HIT A THING. WE JUST HEARD A POP. THE ASSISTANT MANAGER OF THE STORE STATED, "THAT'S WHAT THEY ALL SAY," REGARDING OUR STATEMENT THAT WE HIT NOTHING. THE TIRE WAS NOT TORN, BUT WAS SPLIT FROM RIM TO RIM, COMPLETELY SEVERING THE BELTS. MY WIFE AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THIS ACCIDENT AND OTHER DRIVERS COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED AS WELL. WE DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO EXPERIENCE ANYTHING LIKE THIS EVER AGAIN. GOODYEAR CLAIMS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES, BUT WE HAVE SEEN SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT BLOWOUTS ON GOODYEAR ASSURANCE TIRES. GOODYEAR OFFERED US A SMALL PRICE ADJUSTMENT TO REPLACE OUR TIRES, BUT WE ARE AFRAID TO PURCHASE GOODYEAR TIRES. GOODYEAR MUST RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE. *TR
