Consumer Description

The Fuel Injectors in this generation of Honda CR-V's (2017-current), have widespread reported issues related to clogged injectors - mostly in 2017-2019 models at approx. the 75,000 mile range. This causes the vehicles computer to illuminate multiple warning messages on the dash board (Emission System Problem, Brake System Problem, Brake Hold System Problem, Power Steering System (EPS) Problem, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Problem), Hill Start Assist Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Electric Parking Brake Problem, Tire Pressure Monitor Problem). These warning messages are usually related to an OBD-II code of running too rich or cylinder misfire - P0172, P0303, P219F, etc.... Once one of these fuel injector related trouble codes is illuminated on the dash, all the above listed safety features are disabled. In certain cases, the car may even go into LIMP mode - even while on the highway and vehicle traffic behind the vehicle. There are many documented cases online on Facebook CR-V groups, and other CR-V related websites documenting this problem. Again, all related to a potential poor design with the Honda CR-V Fuel Injector in the 1.4L Turbo engine introduced in the 2017 model year - that then disables key safety features of the vehicle! Ex. https://www.crvownersclub.com/threads/2023-fuel-injector-replacement-discussion-merged-master-thread.225172/ https://www.crvownersclub.com/threads/fuel-injector-replacement-discussion-merged-master-thread-now-retired.219349/page-19 Many 2017-2019 Honda CR-V's are requiring the replacement of Fuel Injectors somewhere in the 50-100k mile range. Honda has often offered to cover the cost of the parts ($800+) and the consumer is left paying for the labor ($500-800). Honda, internally, has noted there is a problem with the manufacture of their injectors. Please investigate as this issue is disabling key safety features on CR-V's
