NHTSA Owner Complaint Log
This page lists owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA for the 2025 Honda CR-V. Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA and do not by themselves prove a defect or defect rate.
The contact owns a 2025 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 60 MPH, the hood was fluttering. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while exceeding 50 MPH and was more significant whenever a semi-truck drove by the vehicle on a two-lane road. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the bracing underneath the hood was reglued, the hood latch was adjusted, and the elevation of the rubber bumpers underneath the hood was modified; however, the failure worsened. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 800.
I have excessive wear on the inside edges of the rear tires on this vehicle. Which is a negative camber issue.
With 700 miles on our 2025 CR-V Ex-L owned for only a month, we had just exited from a 100-mile highway trip onto city streets near our home when the driver display suddenly started flashing warnings of failures for ALL driver safety systems, one after another, causing us to immediately stop in the middle lane filled with traffic and not knowing what to do or how to proceed. We pulled over at the next stoplight & quickly put the car in park, which stopped the endless warnings. When the stoplight turned green, we proceeded on the half mile trip home without further warnings. We have not moved the vehicle since the incident so have no idea if &/or when this might happen again. I have since found multiple online reports of the same type of event happening to other CRV owners, with dealer repair shops "guessing" what is causing the problem & "fixing" everything from fuel injectors & sensors to engine harnesses and battery replacements to vehicle computer updates and cylinder misfires, often with the problem recurring anyway. See: 1. [XXX] 2. [XXX] A number of CR-V owners reporting this issue say their vehicle immediately slowed to "limp mode" down to 35mph on the freeway, which was very scary and dangerous! Since we were driving at city speed we cannot know if our car also experienced Limp Mode. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
While driving at highway speeds with the Moonroof open, unburnt fuel can be smelled in the cabin. Dealer was able to confirm fuel smell.
I am filing a formal complaint regarding the safety systems on my 2025 Honda CR-V EX-L, particularly the overly aggressive Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) and intrusive Lane Keep Assist. While driving my children to school, my CR-V violently slammed the brakes because a scooter was creeping toward an intersection — clearly not entering traffic. The rider and I made eye contact, fully aware of each other, and there was an open left lane for evasive action if needed (it wasn't). Despite my clear judgment, the CMBS intervened, causing a violent deceleration that launched objects inside the vehicle, scared everyone, and increased the risk of a rear-end collision. I am shocked that Honda eliminated the hardware button to quickly disable CMBS. Now drivers must perform a multi-step procedure every time the vehicle starts — an unreasonable and unsafe burden. I previously owned a 2014 Accord and was a loyal, satisfied customer. I love nearly everything else about the CR-V, but these flawed "safety" systems are a potential deal-breaker. Sudden deceleration can cause concussions and greatly increase the chance of secondary accidents. Lane Keep Assist has created additional dangers. When I move slightly within my lane to create space from a semi-truck, the system unnecessarily corrects my steering. This is distracting and unsafe. Good drivers adjust dynamically, but these systems undermine good judgment rather than enhancing safety. Technology that overrides competent drivers is reckless, not "intelligent." I request two changes: (1) Reinstate a hardware button to easily disable automatic emergency braking, and (2) Allow CMBS and Lane Keep Assist settings to persist across drives. Honda must redesign these systems with real-world driving in mind. Features that destroy driver trust are dangerous, not protective. I am deeply disappointed, frustrated, and have lost trust in my CR-V — a serious failure for a brand I once admired.
Description of the Problem: I purchased a 2025 Honda CR-V Sport-L Hybrid in August 2024. The vehicle developed a steering noise and clicking issue early in ownership, first reported at 21,571 miles on November 6, 2024. The problem persisted through four separate warranty repair attempts at authorized Honda dealerships (Kirkland, Bellevue, and Seattle). Despite multiple repairs, including replacement of the cable reel and steering components, the issue was only confirmed and resolved by a Honda field engineer on April 25, 2025, at 49,657 miles. American Honda acknowledged the problem and opened Case #XXXand later a mediation case #XXX, but failed to respond to my Lemon Law resolution request. This prolonged defect affected vehicle safety and steering control stability, especially during low-speed turns and rough roads. Documentation of all visits and correspondence with Honda has been provided. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Reversed several feet out of parking space in unobstructed lot. Car abruptly stopped and most systems shut down. Driver depressed brakes to assess. Two warning lights were present - battery and engine. Driver ensured parking brake off and brake hold off. No vehicles, people, or other objects nearby. Driver slowly depressed gas pedal; car would not budge. Driver depressed brakes and shifted into drive; driver slowly depressed gas pedal but car would not respond at all. Driver turned the car completely off. Upon restarting, battery/engine light turned off and car drove normally to dealership. The car had <250 miles on it at the time. Dealer stated that no engine codes were retained. Dealer stated verbally that it is likely a "computer glitch" as the car is new and "just breaking in." Dealer stated that car "probably won't do it again." Written documents indicate that dealer suspects a failure in reverse automatic braking system. After car released to owner without addt'l testing, owner tested reverse automatic braking system. The system worked as expected - the car braked when it detected a close object in its field, it omitted the correct audible warning sounds and visual lights, and continued to perform when the driver depressed the braking system. Additionally, due to the newness of the car, the driver is extremely confident that no objects were around - the driver had been parking far from other vehicles to avoid dings. This "computer glitch" is potentially fatal as the car came to a sudden, complete stop while in motion and was unresponsive in any gear, even after brakes were applied and released. The owner drives on the freeway daily. The dealer could not say with confidence that the "glitch" would not occur in drive at high speed. Imagine driving 65 mph on a freeway and your car coming to a complete, sudden stop - not a rolling stop or a slowdown where you might inch to shoulder - just a completely dead car in the middle of a freeway.
I recently purchased my 2025 Honda CRV from the dealership January. I was driving with my 2025 Honda CRV and I noticed that the lane keep assist was having the ping pong affect when I first picked it up but I didn't really think too much about it. I assume my vehicle just needed some drive time since it was brand new and it was the first time it was on the highway. I noticed that this function was also causing the wheel to be very stiff. I know this system is a driving assistant and is not meant to take away from actual driving and paying attention to the road. But this week the system made an over correction and caused my vehicle turn into a guardrail on the highway. The road was straight, the day was clear and the lines on the lanes were very visible. There shouldn't have been an issue. I was pulled into the guardrail on the driver's side. I was with my girlfriend, her [XXX] son and my friend at the time. Everyone was a bit shaken up, I never had that happen before. It was primarily cosmetic damage to the vehicle and no other vehicles or property was damaged. I wasn't aware there was a steering recall on this vehicle until after the incident, and the recall was posted during the time I was finalizing the paperwork with my dealership for purchasing this vehicle. I haven't taken it to a dealership since getting the vehicle because they prepared everything prior to delivery or picking it up from the port in my case. I have filed a claim with my insurance company and hopefully the vehicle can be inspected for steering issues, to include the lane keep assist. I didn't get any warnings from the vehicle during the incident and I did notice that the steering is overly controlled by the adaptive cruise control when I try to make a turn in my own lane.

The brake system on my 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid produces a pronounced creaking and groaning noise when releasing the brake pedal from a stop, especially on steep slopes. The issue becomes significantly louder when the vehicle is carrying more passengers/full luggage. This noise is distracting to the driver, particularly in stop-and-go traffic and on inclines and reduces confidence in safe braking performance. The condition creates a risk of delayed reaction or loss of focus while driving. The dealership was able to reproduce the noise during testing [only flat road/parking] but dismissed it as “characteristic.” However, the noise in my vehicle is noticeably louder than other CR-V Hybrids. The issue was not tested under the full conditions I described (steep slope and full load). I have driven another 2025 CR-V Hybrid (owned by a friend), and it does not exhibit any such issue. The problem has been present since shortly after purchase and continues to worsen. There are no warning lamps or diagnostic messages associated with the condition. I have all documented noise in video format - available to share on request. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
Spontaneous explosion of moon roof glass - I was driving about 70mph on the highway near my home, it was a windy/partially sunny day and for no reason my moon roof glass exploded, sounded like a small bomb and in the rear view mirror i could see a lot of debris coming down. I then drove to a location where I safely parked and took a picture of the broken moon roof glass. I did not hear or see anything that would have caused this - it was spontaneous. Occurred about 330pm.
The contact owns a 2025 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the front end of the vehicle was shuddering. No warning light was illuminated. Upon inspection, the contact noticed an oil leak into the engine air filter. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was taken to a second local dealer to be diagnosed; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
On April 7, 2025, we bought a new 2025 Honda CRV EX. After driving it for a few weeks, we noticed that the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) is not functioning. And another safety feature, the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system is visual only (not audible) and appears only when our vehicle is 5-6 feet from a vehicle in front. Obviously, this distance is insufficient to properly react in order to avoid an accident. According to the car manual, “the CMBS system can assist when it determines there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding with another vehicle in front…an oncoming vehicle in front, a pedestrian, or someone riding a bicycle. CMBS is designed to alert you when the potential for a collision is determined, as well as assist in reducing speed, avoiding collisions, and reducing collision severity.” With regard to the non-functioning CMBS, we brought the car back to the dealer several times to check on the lack of this system, but their service department could not detect the CMBS system either. They tested other new Honda CRV EX models and even in those cars they could not detect the CMBS system. On June 16, 2025 (received June 18), we sent a letter to Honda headquarters (see attached) asking their assistance in addressing this deficiency. We followed up with 2 phone calls on July 25 and August 13. Unfortunately, to no avail. No response received. From a safety point of view, we are concerned by the lack of the CMBS feature as well as the short distance warning of the FCW system.
Complete electrical failure of all components of the vehicle when the power switch was turned off after parking. Emergency flashers, brake lights, headlight and horn also would not work. I discovered the positive electric cable bracket, on the battery, was broken and held together only by the red plastic cover. The bracket is very thin compared to other vehicle battery cable connections on other cars. It appears that the bracket (with red cover on it) was bumped during vehicle assembly cracking the bracket. The red cover hid the damaged bracket until it broke completely today. If the vehicle does start, it will run normally. When the positive cable loses connection, the vehicle continues to operate normally until it is shut off. Then all systems shut down immediately. Recommend Honda redesign the cable bracket to make it less prone to breakage.
The clock spring assembly makes a noise whenever I turn the steering - this was once fixed through replacement by long beach honda and a couple of months later the issue came up again. Now, the dealer says Honda should be addressing it. The issue today till exists on vehicle and Honda refuses to take any action which is very weird as many users on online threads report the same issue. I am not sure if this might be related to the recall number (24V744000) but my car shows no open recalls. Long Beach Honda confirmed the issue and replaced the part once, but the issue came up again after a couple of months itself. see this thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/crv/s/vGOzgTLDNO
The steering wheel pulls the one side drastically when I drive over a bump or a crack/line on a road or highway. It’s quite scary and I’m afraid I could have an accident
Cracked driver side mirror due to cold weather. Purchased car yesterday brand new, overnight it was cold and I woke up to a large crack across the side mirror.
The hood on the 2025 Honda CRV Hybrid is loose. When you drive at highway speeds, the hood vibrates and you can hear the metal hook holding the hood down banging.
The backup camera is grainy / blurry. It is like watching an old video tape from the 80’s.
New 3 Month old vehicle with less than 5000 miles without warning had full failure of Brake Pedal Simulator Control Unit while on road. Immediately lost use of brakes and parking brake. Luckily driver was on a back road going uphill and was able to bring vehicle to a standstill. Honda will not provide answers regarding reason/cause for unit failure. They also cannot provide advice on how to respond if replacement Brake Pedal Simulator Control Unit was to fail in the future.
I’ve noticed several issues with the 2025 Honda CR-V Sport Hybrid. The hood vibrates excessively, and both the hatch and hatch lock appear to be misaligned. Additionally, the gaps and flushness between the hood and the surrounding body panels, as well as the alignment of the rear hatch, are inconsistent. TI have concerns with the sealing of the doors and the rubber seals throughout the entire vehicle, as they do not appear to be installed correctly.
I have seen lots of internet posts about exploding sunroofs, well this happened to our vehicle on the freeway. There was no overpass/rocks/cars near and the sunroof exploded, unfortunately my sliding-shade was open when this happened blowing glass debris all over the inside of our vehicle. My [XXX] son and mother-in-law were in the back seat covered in glass. We are VERY fortunate that no one was injured from this, this seems to be a more common thing and should be addressed from Honda or the glass manufacturers. They need to look into a safer glass design so that this does not cause a bigger freak accident, especially on the freeway. We were also very fortunate that our local Honda dealership stepped up to replace it and offered a clear tint for the inside as protective insurance - just in case it happens again. They also provided us with a car until it was repaired. I did speak to a service writer about this and they said that there have been three other incidents at their dealership. I know there are other car manufacturers that are having problems with this too. This has made me very nervous about riding with my family-of-four with the sliding-shade open now. I hope they can figure this out. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
My wife was driving our 2025 Honda CRV on [XXX] when suddenly the car turned off, there were no brakes, and was unable to steer. This happened while driving - moving - She was able to stop, turned the car off, then started the car again. She parked the car in a parking garage, and called the Honda dealership in Manassas, VA. The technician told her to NOT drive the car and have it towed to their dealership - which we did the same day. The car only has 6,000 miles on it. There was a previous recall on this vehicle for steering issues - we brought it to he dealership then and was presumably was repaired. This was a very dangerous, life threatening incident. Honda is supposedly going to fix this - hopefully - but what is my recourse, and should we drive this car? Will Honda provide us with a new car that has no issues or recalls? Please advise.

After getting a tire rotation done for 2025 Honda CRV LX at 9199 miles at the dealership, when I took it out of their hands, I heard a consistent mechanical noise coming from one of the tires. I returned the car immediately back to the dealership to diagnose this issue. The dealership service center said that the car had a driver side broken wheel bearing, and it would take two days to get the part and fix it. I don't know if the dealership kept the broken part or threw it away. I regularly drive this car long distances on the highway, so having a broken wheel bearing puts me and other drivers at risk of a crash. The vehicle has not been inspected by others other than the dealership. There were no warning messages or other symptoms before. Only immediately after getting a tire rotation did this happen.
When starting my car, it started rumbling and then the following alerts came on: transmission, emissions, power, and blind spot sensor. I took the vehicle to the dealer and they noted that cylinder 4 fuel injector went bad and also cylinder 4 spark plug went bad. It was covered under warranty; however the car was not safe to drive until the above parts were changed out to working parts.
With Adaptive Cruise Control on, without touching brake or cruise controls, while passing semi trucks (also happens but less frequently with all vehicles), the Adaptive Cruise Control will pause or disengage, causing the vehicle to lose speed and momentum. Vehicles trailing the vehicle at this time are not aware of this sudden change in constant speed, creating a potential serious accident at highway speeds. Problem has occurred numerous time over the life of the vehicle (2 months). Is repeatable.
The windshield washer system on my new Honda CRV is not operating to effectively clean the windshield. The washer fluid is sprayed from nozzles on the windshield wipers, only briefly at the far left end of the wiper travel arc. On the driver’s side, the washer fluid sprays only on the far left two inches of the windshield, which the wiper does not contact. The passenger’s side of the windshield, receives no sprayed washer fluid (the fluid sprays only at the end of the wiper travel arc, in a narrow band in the middle portion of the windshield). Both wipers simply smear any dirt/debris on the dry windshield making visibility worse. I now carry a spray bottle and paper towels in my vehicle so I can pull over to clean the windshield when necessary. The windshield washer system on my vehicle is available for inspection. The windshield washer does not effectively clean the windshield, since the washer fluid is not sprayed over the entire windshield. The dry wipers simply smear any dirt or debris on the windshield making visibility worse. Specifically, the area in the driver’s line of sight is not effectively cleaned, creating a safety hazard. The vehicle windshield washer was inspected by the dealer’s service department, which also inspected other CRVs on the dealer’s lot, all of which exhibited the same issue. The District Manager is also aware of this issue. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No No warning messages or indications were evident. The dealer never mentioned this issue, although it has been a function of a new windshield washer design introduced in the 2023 CRVs, and mentioned in many online complaints from CRV owners since 2023.

I contacted the Honda dealership on November 22, 2024 regarding my recall and was told there was a waitlist. I followed up in December 2024 and was told there was still a waitlist. I called again on 2/4/2025 and was told that no parts for the recall have come in and that there is no ETA on it. The first contact that I made was more than 60 days ago.
While driving on local roads to break in the engine, the car stalled from fifty miles per hour to five miles per hour for about five seconds at mile approximately 100 and 650. No cross traffic or pedestrians. The car detected and warned another car more than three hundred feet away at approximately five hundred miles and nine out of ten times fails to recognize a car a few feet away. The master mechanic did a ride-along and witnessed the Collision Mitigation System failure. Offered ‘re-aim’ as a solution. A week later, he confirmed that he did not expect it to fix it. It was to satisfy me. The service manager repeated the same a week later that the fix was to go through ‘motion’. The dealer is relying on computer codes and ignoring the human observation of the problem during the ride-along. The master mechanic suggested that if there should be a rear-end collision, it would be the fault of the car behind. That is not a risk I like to take with my daughter on a highway. The car sees obstacles that are not present and fails to see the obstacles that are a few feet away.
I purchased a 2025 Cr-v on 1-30-2025 on 2-1-2025 after 33 miles the emissions light came on. I notified the dealership and i brought the car in on 2-3-2023 and on 2-5-2025 I picked up the car. then on 2-7-2025 the same light came on and the dealer picked up the car on 2-10-2025 and on 2-13-2025 they said it was fixed plus they put 65 miles on the vehicle as per tech advise to make sure it was fixed. now on 2-17-2025 the same light came on and dealer once again came to take the car. this warning light message expresses that while driving power may be reduced so I don't think it would be safe on the highway. at this time 2-17-2025 the car was picked up and brought to the dealer so I didn't receive a work order yet
The contact owns a 2025 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving 45-50 MPH, the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system was activated, and the vehicle decelerated to approximately 10-20 MPH without another vehicle being nearby. The failure had occurred twice in one week. The contact stated that on both occasions, the vehicle was able to accelerate as needed seconds after the failure had occurred. The contact became aware online that the failure was a known issue, and it was advised that the Forward Collision Avoidance system should be deactivated to prevent the failure from reoccurring. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle had not been repaired. The dealer stated that the system would be calibrated to avoid the failure from reoccurring. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100.
At approximately[XXX] I was driving the CR-V. I merged onto [XXX] from [XXX] going toward the [XXX] exit. Shortly after merging onto [XXX] a warning light came on stating something like “Emission system problem. You may lose power. See your dealer.” Very shortly after this the engine did start to lose power. Fortunately, I was able to pull over to the side of the freeway. Felt very unsafe. Waited a minute and shut the car off and turned it back on. I was able to start going back to my original destination. Within seconds the warning flashed again and stayed on the entire way there (around 2-3 miles). I called a tow truck to take the vehicle to the dealer. Was told by dealer (Germain Honda of Dublin) that they were replacing the cylinder heads. This was done and when they test drove it the problem occurred again. The dealer then replaced the fuel injector and this supposedly fixed the problem. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Car suddenly lost power and would not drive. Odometer only at 4,062 miles. Diagnosis was bad fuel injection system. From reviews online, seems to be a not uncommon problem. Could have caused a major accident if occurred on the highway. Was lucky I was on a lonely country road early in the morning close to home. Honda is repairing at no cost but very concerned that brand new vehicle had such a serious issue without any recall notice.
The rear view camera system of many of these 2024 & 2025 Honda CR-Vs at night shows an image of the rear area behind the car that is greatly blurred. No object is clearly visible, and many objects are not visible at all. Does this meet the federal regulations in 49 CFR 571.111 § 5.5.1 , 5.5.2 , and 5.5.6
On [XXX], on a vehicle I purchased new only 5 days ago on [XXX] I had an incident where I put the vehicle in reverse to back out of a parking spot and the backup camera came on and I am 100% sure I was in reverse and when I hit the gas I went forward, instead of in reverse. I put it in park and back in reverse and the same thing happen again. Finally, I turned the vehicle off and then it worked properly on the restart. There was some sort of error between the electronics and mechanical parts that was extremely concerning and dangerous, especially traveling with a 1 year old baby in the backseat.

My car is a total lemon/brick that goes into limp mode and gets stuck in accessory mode. It's a brand new Honda CR-V 2025 less than 1250 miles. Its completely useless and makes me late for work. The car is not drivable when this happens. All safety systems are disabled, battery light, check engine light. The car states "See Dealer", but the dealer refuses to work on my car. I need to report this as a safety concern so that this will turn into a recall as Honda says they are aware of the issue and can read the error codes.
When turning there is a creaking noise coming from the steering wheel. I’ve looked it up on google and a lot of people are have the same issue. I took it to the dealership for a recall that the vehicle had for them to put grease in the steering box and I told them about the sound. The dealership told me that it’s a loose cable in the steering wheel causing the sound and that Honda might come out with a recall to fix it. They did not fit it and I was told to wait for the recall to come out. Sounds very unsafe to have a loose cable in my steering wheel and it makes me uncomfortable to drive it knowing that. Idk if it put me and my family at risk or other drivers on the road at risk. I feel like this should be something addressed very quickly for the safety of everyone and it’s very common from what I’ve soon on google. I hope this recall comes out soon.
My brand-new 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring AWD came equipped from the factory with Bridgestone Ecopia H/L 422 Plus all-season (M+S) tires. These tires exhibit dangerously low traction at very low speeds on normal packed snow and light ice typical on California’s Hwy 80/Tahoe corridor. On Fri Jan 3rd, the vehicle repeatedly lost traction, slid sideways, and struggled to accelerate from a stop on mild winter conditions where M+S tires are expected to provide adequate traction—particularly on an AWD SUV. This occurred at speeds under 10 mph on roads where other vehicles with M+S tires had no difficulty. The issue appears to be abnormally poor winter performance that is inconsistent with what is typical for M+S all-season tires. This raises concern about a possible tread compound defect, hard rubber compound, or manufacturing inconsistency with this specific Ecopia batch or production run. California law (Caltrans chain controls) considers AWD vehicles with M+S tires acceptable for winter operation without chains under R1 and often R2 conditions. These tires fail to meet this expected level of basic winter safety, even though they are legally marked M+S. Honda informed me that these tires are “not intended to be driven on snow and require chains,” which contradicts how M+S-rated OEM tires are used statewide and raises concern that the tire may not be performing to federal Mud & Snow design standards. This appears to be a safety defect affecting traction, stopping, and control of the vehicle during normal winter operation. A tire inspection or compound evaluation may be needed.

I am not the owner of a 2024 or 2025 Honda CR-V but I am regularly blinded by their new dual low beam LED headlamps on the road. These lamps are shockingly bright and exceed the glare of some other vehicles with high beams on. I suspect the beam pattern of these lamps is poorly designed and can blind other motorists either in an oncoming traffic flow or when the CR-V driver is following a vehicle and blinding them via rear view and side view mirrors. Photo attached of example headlamps and comments from CRV owners acknowledging they glare oncoming drivers.
I purchased a brand new 2025 CRV on Sept. 29, 2024. 3 months after purchase, I started noticing a noise when I would make a turn. It sounded like rocks being thrown around. It turned out to be my cable reel/clock spring. A month after replacement, my steering wheel started making a clicking noise when driving straight or turning. It was confirmed again that it was the cable reel/clock spring… only this time, they put padding around to “please me.”

I was driving to the mailbox today and the car revved forward and the steering became hard to control and steer. This is the second incident. When I originally reported to the Supervisong Service agent at my Honda of Katy, Mr. John Kasimoff, he dismissed it since the "check engine light" did not turn off. He and the staff at Honda of Katy discouraged me from bringing in the car. I am afraid to drive the car in Texas. A car is necessary for my livelihood and to get around. Food shopping and to buy simple basic necessities require an automobile and can no longer afford taking Ubers and depend on the kindness of friends to assist me with deliveries and other transportation. The recall came merely days after purchasing my new car and it's suspect to me that no one at the dealership was unaware of ongoing issues when they keep contacting me about purchasing. Honda has yet to send information on when a possible solution for parts and service to my vehicle. They referred me to the Honda of Katy dealership but the dealership is referring me back to Honda Automotive. I need assistance because I want repairs and a full diagnostic made to my Honda CR-V hybrid Sport without any more delays.
Our CRV hybrid is experiencing the sticking steering wheel issue. It takes force to move the steering wheel at freeway speeds. It is not included in the recall but clearly has the issue. Our local Honda service dealer blew us off and is unwilling to help.
The contact owns a 2025 Honda CR-V. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V744000 (Steering); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
The radar sensor on our Honda 2025 CR-V was stolen. It is apparently a very easy thing to do and has been rampant in many regions of the country. It takes about 30 seconds to take from the car, and costs thousands to replace. Honda has known about this for several years but has done nothing to fix the problem or help owners fix the problem. They did not tell us about the potential problem when we were buying the car. They have instructed their dealerships to NOT help customers solve the issue despite solutions available on the market from reputable companies. If one tries to go this route, Honda will void the warranty on the sensor. I'm reporting this to hopefully put some pressure on Honda to remedy this situation for all of us victims.
