HONDA ISSUED A "NOTICE" ABOUT THE LOCKS MALFUNCTIONING ON THE CRV BUT THIS IS MORE OF A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT DESERVES A RECALL. IF YOU MISSED THE DEADLINE FOR THE "NOTICE" THEN YOU HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE YOUR LOCKS REPAIRED. THEY ARE LOCKING AND UNLOCKING BY THEMSELVES WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS UNSAFE FOR MORE THAN ONE REASON. FOR ONE IT ALLOWS CHILDREN TO OPEN THE DOOR DUE TO IT NOT BEING LOCKED AND THEY COULD FALL OUT. IT ALSO ALLOWS FOR SOMEONE TO OPEN YOUR DOOR AND GET IN WITHOUT YOU HAVING CONTROL OVER IT. THE DOORS UNLOCK AT ANY RATE OF SPEED AND WILL NOT STAY LOCKED WHEN YOU RELOCK THEM. THIS IS ONLY FIXED BY HAVING THE LOCK ACTUATOR REPLACED WHICH MANY PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD SINCE IT HAPPENS ON ALL 4 DOORS OF THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.

AFTER PARKING MY CAR, WHILE UNLOCKING THE DOORS, THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS NOT GETTING UNLOCKED. SO I MANUALLY UNLOCKED THE DOOR FROM INSIDE AND AFTER THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS NEVER GETTING LOCKED AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT SITUATION AS ALREADY THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR ACTUATOR IS BROKEN AND NOW THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS NOT GETTING LOCKED AT ALL. NOW I AM FEELING VERY INSECURE BY USING THIS VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO FIX BOTH THESE PROBLEMS AT NO COST TO ME.

A/C STARTED BLOWING OUT WARM AIR. I CALLED LOCAL HONDA SERVICE AND WAS TOLD NO RECALL FOR MY VIN# BUT I COULD BRING IT IN FOR $115 DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE. HONDA EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 7 YRS OR 100,000 MILES WHICHEVER COMES FIRST TO REPLACE A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH AND FIELD COIL IF NEEDED BUT MY VEHICLE HAS 110,000 MILES ON IT SO IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. I READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IF THERE IS A DEFECT THEN HONDA SHOULD ADD TO RECALL SO THIS IS COVERED. I READ SOMETHING ABOUT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT WAS FILED AND SETTLED ALREADY IN 2011/2012 FOR AC PROBLEMS WITH HONDA.

IT WILL LOCK ITSELF IF THE AUTO ACCELERATES OVER 10MPH, BUT THEN WILL AGAIN SLOWLY UNLOCK SECONDS LATER AND WILL STAY IN THE UNLOCK POSITION. THIS IN TURN DEFEATS THE SECURITY SYSTEM, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE, ALLOWING THE PASSENGER DOOR TO BE OPENED WITHOUT SETTING OFF THE ALARM.
