I own a 2014 Honda CR-V. Since around November 2022 I have repeatedly experienced an intermittent “bounce” or shudder when accelerating, especially around 20–25 mph and sometimes at higher speeds (around 45 mph and above). The vehicle feels like it briefly loses power or slips before catching again, and the check-engine light has come on and off during this period. I took the vehicle to Stockton Honda (CA) multiple times and consistently reported this bounce/shudder on take-off. Each time, the focus was on brakes, rotors, tires, or other maintenance items. I was never told there might be an engine or timing-chain issue or that the vehicle could be unsafe to drive. The bounce/shudder never went away. I have also been involved in multiple low-speed collisions while taking off from a stop in the past few years, and I am concerned that this hesitation/loss of power may have contributed. In late...
Purchased our 2014 CR-V [XXX], used one owner, 55301 mileage. Very little driving the next three years due to the pandemic. Summer of 2023 we were driving from Buffalo to [XXX] , first 30 miles, severe hesitation, amber lights on, until reaching 70mph. Hesitation stopped but lights stayed on. By August the TPMS indicator, malfunction indicator lamp and other lights came on, again. We reset according to the manual, but this was just the beginning of this process happening over and over again. During dealer testing Code PO 341 came up. Had it tested at another place before taking it to West Herr Honda and was told needed Timing chain replacement with VTC. This was done at a cost of $2232.06 with car mileage of 63159. We were sad and disappointed. Research shows that Honda is very much aware of over 500 plus recorded problems with the 2014 CR-V not...
There is a known issue with 2014 Honda CRV torque converters. My car has always had a funky shift which Honda told me it was just the new CVT transmission. Then back in August my mother drive my car and said that was not correct. I took it to Honda and they said it was the torque converter. It is causing my vehicle to become undrivable with out feeling safe. It judders, shakes and doesn't shift properly. I contacted Honda and they acknowledge that it is a known issue with their CVT transmission. They currently have 1200 orders for torque converters on back order that shows you how much of an issue that this is.
For over a year now, my Honda CRV 2014 has been producing a rattling noise from the engine on every cold startup. This happens regardless of the temperature outside. When I initially heard it, it was sporadic, again, on cold startup - so the rattling didn't occur every time. Over time though, it will occur every morning, or after the car has been sittinwith the engine off for at least a few hours. I asked a mechanic to look at it after a few months after I had first heard it, because it continued to happen, even periodically. As it only happened on cold startup, I could not reproduce it for the mechanic - he could not find any obvious issue. After a few more months, I recorded the issue on video (and audio). The same mechanic said it may be the VTC actuator. I had another mechanic look at...
Known Honda issue- tsb a15-086 Software update and trans fluid change in 2018 due to car juddering with light acceleration, did not fix problem. 10/20/23 car was road tested and concern was present. Needs new torque converter to fix original concern
Transmission shudders at speeds between 20-30 mph.
At around 70,000 miles vehicle started to shudder when accelerating lightly between 20-35MPH. The problem would occur intermittently. This has been getting steadily worse with age and milage. At present the vehicle has 85,000 miles and the shuddering occurs to some degree with each take-off from standing start between 20-40MPH. I changed the transmission fluid with the OEM manufacturer's type, and the problem recurred after a few months. I have not received a recall notice from the manufacturer, or returned the car to the dealer for service.
Drive train is malfunctioning. Safety risk unknown. Vehicle subject to "juddering." Honda Technical Service Bulletin 10-086 dated May 25, 2017 (superseding HSB 15-086 dated August 18, 2016) Entitled "Vibration While Driving Under Light Acceleration" presumably issued to dealers. Dealers were advised to update A/T software "at the customer's request." Also, transmission fluid to be replaced. I have an appointment with Ide Honda on June 26, 2023 for an assessment of juddering problem. There is no indication in the service records that the A/T software update was ever performed. However, the subject vehicle was sold to the previous owner as a "Honda Certified Pre-Owned" automobile. No warning lamps are showing.
There is a rattling noise coming from the engine area at extreme cold startups since I had the car at 24,000 miles on it. When having the car parked with the emergency brake on at an incline and after leaving it ther for a few days, after I press the release on the brake after starting the car, the emergency brake sticks and the car won't move forward when accelerating or backward when releasing the brakes or accelerating. I have to repeatedly press and release the emergency brake to allow the car to release the brake from the wheel for the car to move forward. There is repeatedly a build up of rust on the rear wheels when the car is exposed to humid and wet conditions due to some flaw in the design, and it causes the car the have a loud thumping noise when applying the breaks ....
The contact’s son owns a 2014 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle started shaking abnormally. There was no warning light illuminated. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.
The contact owns a 2014 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while accelerating from first to second gear at approximately 20 MPH, the vehicle would shudder. The contact stated that the shuddering diminished while the vehicle was accelerating. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission fluid needed to be replaced. The vehicle had been repaired. The contact stated that the failure recurred. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 64,000.
The automatic transmission in the car causes the vehicle to shake and vibrate when accelerating. The faster the acceleration, the more violent the shaking.The problem seems to be when the car shifts from 3rd gear into the next higher gear(s). There is a significant, sometimes violent, shaking of the entire vehicle when shifting. The effect is that there is no confidence that the vehicle will shift according to the driver's expectations. This creates a situation where the driver can easily become distracted from nearby traffic situations, and easily cause a potentially dangerous consequence. Base on the history of Honda CRVs from 2012-2013 and earlier, this has been a common issue with Honda automatic transmissions in the past. This happens without prior warning (i.e. dashboard warning lights, messages, etc.)
My Honda has had the front axle replaced twice and now the Honda Dealership is stating it needs to be replaced a third time. The Passenger side also had to have the knuckle or whatever replaced where the tire extends. I mostly drive my child to school and myself to work and or highway driving. I have own cars since I was 16, am now quite past that year and have never had to have the front axle replaced three (3) times?? Driving is very difficult but there is nothing I can do about it - the cost each time is close to 2K. Thanks
The transmission shudders and shakes under light acceleration at speed 20-30 mph. looks like this is a known issue by Honda. check the bulletin (15-086 and 17-040) https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/mc-10108735-9999.pdf https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/mc-10108737-9999.pdf (the document says : the warranty is 8 years or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first.) There are service bulletins out from Honda with corrective actions to be taken Honda wants to charge to perform the fix with no guarantee it will solve the known problem.
VTC Actuator Timing valve rattles at cold start on highway when going over 50-65mph engine rattles very hard and vehicle shakes to point have to pull over. Looked all over online and thousands of customers have same issue even lawsuits. Took to Middletown NY Honda and they say out of warranty and nothing they can do but pay $1500to replace a known faulty part that once replaced could happen again or cause catstrostapic engine damage. please make a recall
We are having repeat problems with the VTC Actuator. This was replaced in 2018 under warranty but has since recurred. Our car is now at the dealer with a diagnostic of timing chain, vtc actuator, and cam gear for a cost of 2100 dollars. It is no longer under warranty and the cost is being passed on to us. This complaint is all over the internet and it is a Honda defect. Please work to support consumers and issue a recall promptly. Honda needs to fix this issue. We also, like many other, burn through oil. It’s amazing how everyone is reporting the same issues in cold starts. (Rattles).
MY 2014 HONDA CRV SEEMS TO SHUDDER AROUND 23 TO 35 MPH AT SLOW ACCELERATION. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A GOOD WHILE NOW. I CHANGED THE FLUID TRANSMISSION FLUID AND STILL NO CHANGES, IT STILL HAS AN HARD SHUDDER.
ON ENGINE STARTING ESPECIALLY MORNING OR COLD STARTS ENGINE CHAIN SPROCKET CLATTERS FOR A NUMBER OF SECONDS. IN NOVEMBER 2016 OR 2017 WENT TO HONDA DEALER FOR CHECK OUT PERFORMANCE AND ANY PROBLEMS OR RECALLS AT CASTLE HONDA MORON GROVE IL TEL # 847-965-8833. WE QUESTIONED ABOUT THE RATTLING COMING ON WHEN 1ST START OF THE DAY. THEY JUST ANSWERED SOME ENGINES DO THIS WHEN THEY ARE COLD, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT! WELL WE DIDN'T WORRY IT SINCE THE HONDA DEALER ANSWERED ITS OK. NOW OVER TIME THE RATTLING IS GETTING LONGER AND LOUDER. I WORK FOR THE STATE AND AT TIMES AM NOT AVAILABLE TO HELP MY WIFE WHEN I AM NOT AT HOME. IAM AFRAID THE RATTLING MAY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING TOTALLY AND PLACE HER IN DANGER. MY NAME IS [XXX] I AM 73 YEARS OLD AND A HONDA BUYER SINCE 1965.. I WISH YOU...
I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY CRV THAT MY AUTO IS SHAKING WHILE I'M DRIVING UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. I VISITED 2 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS OF HONDA DEALERSHIP. THEY BOTH ASKED ME TO HAVE DIAGNOSIS.ALTHOUGH I KNOW WHAT IS WRONG. SO, I GOT DIAGNOSIS FROM HONDA IN FALLS CHURCH, VA. THEY VERIFIED MY CONCERN THAT TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDS TO PERFORM TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH AND TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. MY CONCERN IS MY AUTO MILEAGE IS NOW OVER 82K SO I'M NOT AVAILABLE TO HAVE THE SERVICE UNDER WARRANTY. I HEARD THAT MANY CRV OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I HOPE I COULD GET THE SERVICE UNDER WARRANTY
I PURCHASED A 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 13,000 MILES ON IN, A YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED IT AT 31,000 MILES THE VTC ACTUATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AS IT WOULD MAKE A GRINDING NOISE ON START-UP. IT HAS BEEN 2 YEARS AND I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE NOISE AND ONLY HAVE 65K MILES ON IT. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE IN HONDA FORUMS AND THE PART IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE OR THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH IT AS THERE IS A SAFETY BULLETIN ISSUED, BUT NO RECALL YET.
VEHICLE EXPERIENCES SHUDDER UNDER LIGHT TO NORMAL ACCELERATION AT OR AROUND 2000 RPM. THERE ARE SERVICE BULLETINS OUT FROM HONDA WITH CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN. HONDA WANTS TO CHARGE TO PERFORM THE FIX WITH NO GUARANTEE IT WILL SOLVE THEW KNOWN PROBLEM.
RATTLING SOUND AT START UP AND OIL CONSUMPTION,. 2 QUARTS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND HAVE CHECKED THE LEVEL WEEKLY. *TR
VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION USUALLY OCCURS WHEN ENGINE/TRANSMISSION IS COLD. USUALLY OCCURS AROUND 25 MPH DURING LIGHT ACCELERATION. *TR *BF *AS
I LIVE IN MN, AND ONLY COLD AIR BLOWERS OUT OF THE HEATER VENT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA (TSB 14-063), IT IS A CLOGGED HEATER CORE. I HAVE HAD IT FIXED 2 TIMES ($120/PER TIME) AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN IT IS 20 BELOW AND THERE IS NO HEAT IN MY CRV.
I HAVE HONDA CR-V 2014 WITH ONLY 41K, THE SAME PROBLEM IS WITH THE SHAKE, JUDDER, VIBRATION BETWEEN 25-30 MPG.
ON COLD START-UPS THERE IS A LOUD RATTLE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. MY CR-V ONLY HAS 54,000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I AM TOLD IT COULD BE THE VTC ACTUATOR AND CAN ONLY HOPE THAT MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL COVER IT. NOT THE QUALITY I EXPECT FROM HONDA AT ALL. RESEARCHING THIS CAN LEAD TO OIL CONSUMPTION AND A STRETCHED TIMING CHAIN AND PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE.
2014 CRV HAD 'RATTLE' NOISE DURING COLD START ABOUT A YEAR AGO, TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. NOW AT 59974 MILES AND 3 MONTHS PASSED 5 YEAR WARRANTY, THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS GOING OFF AND TIMING CHAIN HAS TO BE REPLACED. HAD TO SPENT $2000 TO FIX IT.
DRIVING AT LOW SPEED (20-40MPH) THE CAR WILL FLUTTER/SHIMMY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA AMERICA AS THEY HAVE TWO SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THE ISSUE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE ONLINE FORUMS WITH CR-V OWNERS HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH LOW AND HIGH MILEAGE. THE DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THE FIRST "FIX" ACCORDING TO THE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN AND IT WAS OK FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS AND NOW IT'S BACK, WORSE THAN EVER. THE SECOND FIX ACCORDING TO HONDA IS A TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACEMENT, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT HELP THE PROBLEM.
AT COLD START-UP, THE ENGINE RATTLES LOUDLY FOR A FEW SECONDS, EVERY TIME NOW. DEFECTIVE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL (VTC) ACTUATOR. VTC ACTUATOR IS DEFECTIVE. OVER TIME, THIS CAN CAUSE FRAGMENTED ISSUES, AFFECTING OTHER INTEGRAL AREAS OF VEHICLE OPERATION.
OIL USAGE IS EXTREMELY HIGH WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS, AND ENGINE IS DRY. I AM AT THE POINT OF MY OIL NEEDING TO BE CHANGED, AND MY OIL WAS NEARLY EMPTY. I HAVE PUT IN 3 QT'S IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS. ALSO, I LIVE IN NYS, AND ON COOLER DAYS TO FREEZING DAYS, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING RATTLE THAT HAPPENS WHEN I START MY CAR. I HAD A 2010 THAT DID THE SAME THING.
THE CAR VIBRATED DURING ACCELERATION AT 25 AND 32MPH. THE HONDA OF SAN MARCOS,TX DEALER UPDATED THE SOFTWARE AND THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM. SINCE MANY 2014 HONDA CRVS HAVE THIS PROBLEM, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. HONDA SHOULD REIMBURSE ME THE $365.15 THAT THEY CHARGED ME TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION VIBRATION.
MY VEHICLE WAS STALLED IN THE EARLY MORNING OF JULY 17, 2019 IN A PARKING LOT AND TOWED TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP NEARBY. THE MECHANIC'S DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE VEHICLE STALL WAS CAUSED BY THE SHORTAGE OF ALL FUSES IN THE PRIMARY FUSE BOX DUE TO LEAKING OIL FROM THE TIMING CHAIN COVER OF THE ENGINE. THE MECHANIC MENTIONED THAT THE OIL LEAK OCCURRED FOR A WHILE SO IT SHORTED OUT THE FUSES THROUGH THE INCASED ELECTRICAL WIRES. I THINK THAT IT DEFINITELY IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE MY LIFE COULD BE IN A DANGER IF THE SHORTAGE OCCURRED WHEN I DROVE THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY. THEREFORE, I WANTED YOUR AGENCY TO RAISE THIS SAFETY ISSUE RELATED TO HONDA CRV TO HONDA MANUFACTURER AND CONSUMERS WHO ARE CURRENTLY DRIVING A SIMILAR TYPE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM CURRENTLY COOPERATING WITH A REPRESENTATIVE FROM HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR AN INVESTIGATION...
THE CRV STARTS TO SHAKE WHEN SLOWLY ACCELERATING BETWEEN 25 TO 30 MILES AN HOUR GOES AWAY ONCE IT REACHES ABOVE 30 MILE/HOUR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE LAST 8 MONTHS.
I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD SKATE BETWEEN 25-30 MPH WHEN ACCELERATING. I TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, HOPING IT WAS COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO PAY $140 FOR THEM TO JUST CHECK MY VEHICLE. THEN THEY CALLED ME TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND HONDA HAD CREATED AN UPDATE, WHICH I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO RECEIVE. THAT THEY WOULD ALSO HAVE TO FLUSH MY TRANSMISSION FLUID AS PART OF THIS, AND THAT THE COST WOULD BE $499 WITH LABOR AND TAXES. I THEN ALSO WENT AHEAD AND HAD MY OIL CHANGED AND MY BRAKE FLUID SINCE IT WAS RECOMMENDED. TOTAL BILL WAS $703. I THEN CAME HOME AND STARTED LOOKING UP AND IT APPEARS THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE/HAD THE SAME ISSUE. MOST WEREN'T CHARGED BY THEIR DEALER FOR...
ENGINE RATTLES FOR 2 TO 3 SECONDS ON STARTING THE CAR AFTER A LONG PERIOD (AROUND 8 HOURS). CONTACTED HONDA, AND THEY WANT THE CUSTOMER TO COVER MAJORITY OF THE COST. HONDA SAYS THE ISSUE IS ONLY A NUISANCE AND WILL NOT CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE, BUT WILL NOT GIVE THIS IN WRITING.
VIBRATION DURING SLOW ACCELERATION AT SPEED 20-45 RPM. BACK OFF ACCELERATION THEN IT WILL GO A WAY. SYMPTOM START TO SHOW UP 65,000 MILES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED DRASTICALLY. SCHOMP HONDA (1003 PLUM VALLEY LN, HIGHLANDS RANCH, CO, 1-(303) 798-1500) DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT/PROPELLER AND REAR AXLE MOUNT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.
CAR SHAKES, JERKS, AND "JUDDERS" BETWEEN 20 AND 40MPH UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. THIS WAS DIAGNOSED BY A HONDA DEALERSHIP AS BEING THE ISSUE ADDRESSED IN HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 15-086, BUT THEY WILL ONLY FIX IT AT THEIR COST IF YOU ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. FIXING, ACCORDING TO HONDA REQUIRES REPLACING THE TORQUE CONVERTER, UPDATING THE PCM, AND REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THAT'S A PRETTY EXPENSIVE BILL FOR IT BEING THEIR SOFTWARE ISSUE IN THE FIRST PLACE. CAR ALSO MAKE A LOUD GRINDING NOISE ON COLD STARTS. WAS INFORMED THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR, BUT THERE WAS NO FIX FOR IT.
IN AUGUST 2018 I BROUGHT VEHICLE TO PRIVATELY OWNED SHOP THAT I TRUST TO RESEARCH A NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE BAY WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. MECHANIC FOUND THROUGH INSPECTION/RESEARCH THAT TIMING CHAIN LIKELY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ($1000 JOB) ON 2014 CR-V'S. AT THAT TIME MY VEHICLE WAS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MILES, SO IT WAS WITHIN THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTEE PERIOD (5YRS/60KMI). THE MECHANIC ALSO FOUND THAT THE ENGINE WAS LEAKING QUITE A BIT OF OIL FOR SUCH A NEW CAR AND HE SAID IT HAD A CONSUMPTION ISSUE. I CALLED HONDA IN AUGUST 2018, AND STARTED A CASE REGARDING OIL CONSUMPTION AND NOISE RELATED TO TIMING CHAIN. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TO BEGIN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND TO HAVE NOISE LOOKED AT. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO LIA HONDA WHO TOLD ME TO WAIT UNTIL OIL...
VTC ACTUATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT 86,000 MILES. TOOK TO DEALER COST WILL BE $1000.00 NOT COVERED UNDER ANY RECALLS ALTHOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND REPAIRS FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL
VARIABLE TIMING CONTROL (VTC) ACTUATOR FAILED AS DESCRIBED IN HONDA TSB 16-012. INFORMED BY HONDA DEALER THAT FAILURE WOULD RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE IF NOT REPAIRED. HONDA REFUSED TO COVER REPAIR.
THE CAR IS HESITANCE DURING ACCELERATION, THE CAR VIBRATES WHILE DRIVING, MORE NOTICED DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. HIS STARTED AUG 20,2018, WEN I START THE CAR, THE ENGINE MAKES NOISE SHAKES DURING A COLD START. HAVE BEEN TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS IN LATE 2016 THRU MARCH 2018. THIS HAPPENS DURING COLD TEMPERATURES.
MY 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 75,000 MILES IS IN NEED OF A DRIVE SHAFT. I CANNOT FIND A RECALL ON THIS. HONDA IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT. MY MECHANIC WAS INFORMED THAT THERE HAS BEEN TROUBLE WITH THIS PART ON OTHER 2014 MODELS.AS A MATTER OF FACT THE PART WAS BACKORDERED! IT SEEMS ABSURD TO ME THAT THIS SHOULD HAPPEN IN 75,000 MILES. CAN YOU HELP ME? AS YOU KNOW THIS WILL COST ME BETWEEN $2500.00-$3000.00!!! OF COURSE I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA VEHICLE SINCE THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER TO THAT COMPANY]!
I PURCHASED MY USED CERTIFIED 2014 HONDA CR-V EX-L 11/2016 AND THE CAR SEEMED TO RUNNING SMOOTH AND VERY QUITE. I TOOK IT IN FOR THE FIRST SERVICE CALL THE CAR DIDN'T RUN THE SAME, I EVEN WHEN BACK A FEW DAYS AFTER THE CAR WAS SERVICED. SINCE THE IF I MAKE A SUDDEN STOP THE CAR STOPS AND I FINALLY HEAR THE TRANSMISSION CATCHING UP AND THIS CAUSE THE CAR TO JERK BACK IN THE SITTING POSITION. IF I AM GOING ABOUT TO GO THROUGH MY DRIVE THRU MINI MARKET AND I HAVE TO WAIT ON ANOTHER CAR AND THEN PROCEED THE TRANSMISSION ACTS AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE AND IT FINALLY JUMPS INTO GEAR WHICH ALLOWS THE CAR TO MOVE FORWARD. THIS IS MY 5TH PURCHASE WITH HONDA, 1988 HATCH BACK CIVIC, 1990 HONDA ACCORD, HONDA CIVIC, 2003 HONDA ELEMENT AND NOW 2014 HONDA CR-V EX-L....
VEHICLE SHAKES WHILE IN MOTION WHEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS BETWEEN 25MPH-45MPH USING OVER-DRIVE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN OVER-DRIVE IS TURNED OFF. TRANSMISSION COMPUTER HAS BEEN UPDATED BUT THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AS HOPED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM IS ON-GOING.
CAR HESITATES AND THEN MAY SURGE ON ACCELERATION, ESPECIALLY FROM FULL STOP, ROLLING STOP, OR LOW SPEED, AS IN HIGHWAY MERGING. I SUSPECT THE TRANSMISSION. IT IS INTERMITTENT, AT LEAST SEVERAL TIMES/WEEK FROM 2014-2017. HONDA WON'T ADDRESS IT BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT.
WHEN I MAKE A SHARP TURN USUALLY TO THE LEFT, THE CAR DOESN'T GO WHEN I ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO BACK OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL THEN ACCELERATE AGAIN, WHICH CAUSES AN UNSAFE SITUATION. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WITH ME. THE CAR IS STATIONARY WHEN I WANT TO ACCELERATE LIKE AT A LIGHT WHERE I AM TURNING LEFT.
THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE LASTING APPROXIMATELY 2 SECONDS AT COLD STARTUP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 22700 MILES. I'M CONCERNED THIS IS CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE IDLING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE ALSO SURGED WHILE IDLING AND THE RPMS FLUCTUATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS MODULE CAUSED THE FAILURE. DUE TO THE ABS MODULE FAILURE, THE TRANSMISSION MODULE SOFTWARE COULD NOT BE UPDATED TO PREVENT THE SURGE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,790.
THIS IS AN ENTERMENTENT ISSUE. THE STARTER MOYER GRINDS AFTER THE ENGINE HAS STARTED. THE TPMS LIGHT COMES ON INTERMENTENLY EVEN IF THE TIRES ARE AT THE PROPER INFLATION PRESSURE. HOPE HONDA DOES SOMETHING ABOUT THESE ISSUES.
