NHTSA Complaint #10667960 — 2006 HONDA CR-V

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAIL EVERY FEW MONTHS, SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING, NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. MANY PEOPLE WITH THE 2006 CR-V HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA, THE NHTSA AND ALL OVER THE INTERNET. WHY HASN'T HONDA ISSUED A RECALL? HONDA DID HAVE A RECALL FOR THE 2002-2004 CR-V FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT NOT FOR THE LATER YEARS, SAYING THAT THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM WAS DIFFERENT IN NEWER MODELS. MAYBE, BUT CLEARLY THE DEFECT/HAZARD IS IN THE 2006 MODEL AS WELL. I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO HONDA BEFORE AND DID SO AGAIN TODAY, AND IT IS AMERICAN HONDA CASE # N012014-12-2301127. I INSISTED THAT THEY TAKE A HARD LOOK AT COMPLAINTS ABOUT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT FAILURE IN THE 2006 CR-V THAT HAVE BEEN FILED WITH HONDA AND THE NHTSA AND ISSUE A RECALL, AS THEY DID FOR THE OLDER MODELS. *TR
