NHTSA Complaint #11185026 — 2018 HONDA CR-V

WHILE DRIVING THE CR-V DOWN THE COUNTRY ROADS IN MY AREA THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE AND LOOSE POWER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WHILE TRYING TO FIND A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OFF THE VEHICLE BEGAN LOOSING POWER. WITH THE GAS PRESSED TO THE FLOOR THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE FIVE MILES AN HOUR. FINDING A LOCATION TO PULL OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF AND THE ENGINE WAS CRACKLING AND SMELLED LIKE IT WAS BURNING. GETTING OUT OF VEHICLE FOR SAFETY REASONS ALLOWED SHOWED THAT THE SMELL WAS WORSE ON THE OUTSIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS DEEMED IN OPERABLE. THEY PROVIDED ME WITH A LOANER; HOWEVER, I AM PAYING FOR A VEHICLE THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN. THIS VEHICLE WAS ONLY OFF THE LOT FOR THREE MONTHS WITH LESS THAN 800 MILES.
