2008 HONDA CR-V Wheels Problems

Hello I’m [XXX] and own a 2008 Honda CRV that runs fine. VIN [XXX] , but previous owner never went to the recall and I bought the car in 2014 and recently, during a brake job, I first became aware of the problem when my mechanic alerted me to the recall situation and the rusting out that was putting drivers in a very dangerous situation. My car failed the recall because of the rust causing the degradation of the rear suspension trailing arm, and now I'm left with a car not fit to drive? and I would be liable for whatever happens but I was never offered a solution to buy the car back something to help and I cannot be without one to get to Dr’s or buy food live rural I have no choice living alone at [XXX] need a car. So a question, why am I the...

This vehicle had a wheel separation while traveling at low speed. The right rear wheel separated from the car. The cause is excessive rust to the trailing arm and specifically to the subframe to which the trailing arm is attached. The car is available for inspection. I also have photographs that show the problem. The safety issue is clear. After separation the car cannot be controlled if in motion. This particular vehicle has not been inspected. The wheel separation was reported by me to Honda in North America, to "Chris" in "client relations." A case number was issued for my complaint, #00499145. An insurance claim was made, but the insurer denied the claim. My research shows that this model CRV has been recalled in Canada for this precise problem. In Canada, Honda states that this model CRV has "excessive" rust, leading to failure. Further, that the problem is not readily...

WHILE DRIVING MY PASSENGER REAR WHEEL COLLAPSED. GOT IT TOWED TO RIVERSIDE HONDA IN MARQUETTE MI. WAS TOLD THE WHEEL RUSTED THROUGH THE FRAME. WE WERE LUCKY WE WEREN'T KILLED. AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND CANADA HAS RECALLED 83,000 OF THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. THEY WERE OFFERING TO BUY BACK OR FIX VEHICLES IF POSSIBLE. I WAS TOLD IT CAN'T BE FIXED. HONDA USA CORPORATION SAYS WE DO NOT HAVE ANY SUCH ISSUE. I DONT BELIEVE IT. WHAT ACTION DO I TAKE AS THEY SAID ITS MY PROBLEM ?

I HAVE 4 COOPER DISCOVERER SRX SIZE P225-65-14 TIRES AND NOTICED A RECALL ON COOPER TIRES..I HAVE BEEN NOTICING THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS ON IN MY CAR BUT THE TIRES HAVE "PROPER PRESSURE" AND I NOTICED IT'S SEEMINGLY HARDER TO STEER WHILE MY CAR IS IN MOTION.MORE SO STARTING AND STOPPING.OR LOWER SPEEDS.THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS WITH SHORTER DISTANCES OF ABOUT 30 MILES OR LESS

AFTER BALANCING ROTATING TIRES AND 2 ALIGNMENTS CAR CONTINUES TO PULL TO THE RIGHT. CLAIM ALIGNMENT IS CORRECT BUT CONTINUES TO PULL RIGHT ON ALL ROADS AT ALL SPEEDS

ZORIGINAL WHEEL SARE SO CORRODED AROUND STEMS AND RIM THAT THEY LOOS AIR WEEKLY, ONE 10-12 LBS EACH WEEK. HONDA SEEMS DISINTERESTED AND SAYS IT IS NEWS TO THEM. MY MECHANIC WAS AWARE IOF AN ISSUE AND WE ALMOST LOST A WHEEL FROM THE CAR ON THE HIWAY AFTER HAVING A WHEEL REPLACED ON THE CAR AFTER SOME WORK. MECHANIC SAYS HOLES FOR THE LUG BOLTS CORRODE MAKING THE IMPACT WRENCH THINK THE WHEEL IS SECURE.

STILL NO RESOLUTION TO OUR AIR BAGS. ALSO, I DRIVE MY CAR A LOT. I DRIVE 100 MILES A DAY. 5 DAYS A WEEK. I HAVE OVER 160,000 MILES. I HAVE TO BUY TIRES ALL THE TIME, MY LAST SET OF 4 HAS 80,000 MILE WARRANTY AND I HAVE RIGHT AT 28,000 MILES ON THIS SET. I AM HAVING TO PURCHASE ANOTHER SET OF 4 THIS WEEK. I HAVE PAID ABOUT 7 OR 8,000 DOLLARS ON TIRES I HAVE PURCHASED A LEAST 10 SET OF TIRES BECAUSE THEY DON'T WEAR EVENLY. I HAVE PURCHASED ALIMENTS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. I HAVE PURCHASED EXPENSIVE TIRES 1000.00' TO COOPER TIRES 600.00! AND EVERY SET HAS WORN UNEVENLY. I EVEN ROTATE MY TIRES EVERY 5000 MILES I WAS READING MANY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS SO UNSAFE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AND ROAD WAYS. WILL YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE PROBLEMS. WE REALLY APPRECIATE...

HONDA 2008 CRV HAS VIBRATIONS IN THE TIRES AND IT PULLS TO THE RIGHT (LEFT WHEN TIRES ARE ROTATED). IT APPEARS THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL OF HONDA 2008 CRV WITH MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT. THE MAINTENANCE CENTER BLAMES THE TIRES, THE TIRE SHOP BLAMES THE WHEELS. BOTTOM LINE IS HONDA KNOWS THERE'S A PROBLEM AND THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. THE SAME RESPONSE IS NOT THE WHEELS IS THE TIRES! REALITY IT IS THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE WHICH HAS NO FIX. NEVER EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN. *TR

MY STORY BEGINS (2/14/09) WHEN MY HUSBAND WAS TAKING OFF THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. DURING REMOVAL, USING A MANUAL LUG WRENCH, HE SNAPPED OFF TWO WHEEL STUDS. THE FOLLOWING MONDAY, (2/16/09), WE TOOK THE CRV TO THE ORWIGSBURG SERVICE CENTER, OUR LOCAL REPAIR SHOP, TO HAVE A STATE INSPECTION PERFORMED AND REPLACE THE BROKEN WHEEL STUDS. WHILE AT THIS SHOP, OUR MECHANIC PULLED ALL FOUR WHEELS, AND INFORMED US THAT ALL THE WHEELS STUDS, 20 IN TOTAL, WERE BENT OUTWARD, IN A CIRCUMFERENTIAL PATTERN. WE WERE THEN ADVISED TO CONTACT AMERICAN HONDA, AS THIS WAS CERTAINLY DUE TO SOME TYPE OF PRODUCT DEFECT. DUE TO THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE SITUATION WE HAD, AT OUR EXPENSE, THE CRV TOWED TO LEHIGH VALLEY HONDA FOR INSPECTION, AND WE ASSUMED, A WARRANTY REPAIR. IMAGINE OUR SURPRISE, WHEN LEHIGH VALLEY HONDAS' SERVICE ADVISOR INSINUATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THAT WE HAD SOMEHOW THROUGH OUR OWN...
