NHTSA Complaint #10786879 — 2015 HONDA CR-V

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW CR-V EX-L BASED ON EXCELLENT REVIEWS FROM CONSUMER REPORTS AND EDMUNDS. I EXPECTED THE CAR TO BE PERFECT. HOWEVER, HONDA SOLD ME THE DEFECTED CAR WITHOUT ANY NOTICE EVEN THIS DEFECT WAS KNOWN FOR MONTHS. THE ISSUE IS A VIBRATION DURING IDLE. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN I STOP ON THE TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE PASSENGER SEAT STARTS TO SHAKE. IF I RELEASE BREAKS VIBRATIONS WILL GO AWAY. IT IS NOT NORMAL. I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM 2 MONTHS AFTER THE PURCHASE (OR 600-700 MILES). THEN I WENT TO THE DEALER AND HE TOLD ME THAT HONDA'S ENGINEERS WERE "WORKING ON IT", NO SOLUTION WAS FOUND YET AND I HAD TO WAIT FOR A FURTHER NOTICE. VISIBLE VIBRATIONS MEAN THAT THERE IS MECHANICAL RESONANCE IN THE CAR. AN EXAMPLE OF DESTRUCTION DUE TO MECHANICAL RESONANCE WOULD BE A COLLAPSE OF TACOMA NARROWS BRIDGE. THUS, MY SAFETY CONCERN IS THAT THE CAR CAN BE DAMAGED STRUCTURALLY. FOR EXAMPLE, FEW BOLTS MAY COME LOOSE AND THE CAR MAY DISINTEGRATE DURING THE DRIVE. THE PROBLEM COULD BE THAT A NEWLY INTRODUCED CVT TRANSMISSION IN HONDA CR-V 2015 DOESN'T GO ALONG WITH THE ENGINE AND THEY PRODUCE EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS THAT SPREAD THRU A CAR FRAME TO THE SEAT. PROBABLY, THE CAR WASN'T TESTED PROPERLY DURING DESIGN PROCESS. THUS, HONDA ENGINEERS OVERLOOKED THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE A VIDEO FILE OF VIBRATIONS BUT IT'S TOO BIG FOR UPLOAD.
