NHTSA Complaint #11536064 — 2016 HONDA HR-V

CVT transmission failure. It’s important and unsafe when your vehicles stops in the middle of the road without any sign of warning. No power to move just completely stops running. This puts many lives in danger if it were to have happened in the middle of the highway, especially in contruction block off zones. I am sure Dealerships are aware of this issue. The dealership were the ones to inform me that my vehicle’s CVT transmission belt deteriorated. No warning signs at all just complete stop and loss of power to run. Vehicle turns on without a problem but does not drive or move forward. I even did my oil transmission change and was not told some debris of metal was present at the moment of service. Not until two years later that the vehicle finally stopped moving foward and me taking it to the dealership to find out it was the CVT belt which is the whole transmission inside that broke and needs replacement. I find it strange that the warranty was extended two more years on it without me being informed on it. My warranty expired and the dealership did not honor to have my vehicle fixed due to warranty being expired by 3 months past due the 7 year warranty. Had I known the first time it had issues it would have fallen in time of warranty, I would have asked for a new transmission. I hope this does not happen to others in the highway as this is a hazardous safety concern.
