I have a 2006 Honda CRV with a little over 297,780 miles. Upon starting the car, the VSA and ABS indicator lights came on along with the VSA warning triangle and would not go off until the engine was turned off. There were no accidents or any noticeable problems with the vehicle while driving on city street under good conditions. I feel that this defect is essential in ensuring the overall safety of this car. The weight of the car is significant enough that an uncontrolled skid is much more likely to end in disaster than a skid that is stopped with the VSA and ABS function working properly. I feel that Honda should recall these cars and replace the VSA modulator unit entirely at Honda's expense. And for those who have already paid for the repair - reimburse the full amount of the repair! Since this component controls brakes and stability it seems to me to be a safety issue and therefore subject to a recall.

My car gets up to 2500 rpms and the check engine light comes on and the VSA warning light as well. The car jerks hard and the engine stutters and won't hardly go. it's done this to me twice and I had the ecu reset. The diagnostic comes up as the vsa system modulator. I have had my 6 and 9 year old granddaughters in the car with me. If I had been on the interstate in heavy traffic taking them to their doctor appointments, we would have been killed. The third time this thing went out I had to pull into the shoulder of the road to avoid being hit. I believe Honda knows about this problem and they should be made to replace the part for free. This is a major safety hazard and the part runs almost $2000 without the labor. I believe they want to drag their feet and not recall this part because it's so expensive. I don't want to die in my car and I can't afford to buy another one. Thanks.

The transmission is making a loud noise (whining noise) and it could fail at any moment while I'm driving it. The car has 100,000 miles only.

MY REAR DOOR DOES NOT LOCK WHEN I PUSH THE DOOR LOCK FROM THE INTERIOR, USE THE KEY FROM THE EXTERIOR OR THE FOB. MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WON'T UNLOCK AND NOW MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WON'T LOCK WHEN I LOCK THE DOORS OR UNLOCK WHEN I UNLOCK THE DOORS. I HAVE TO MANUALLY PULL UP OR PUSH DOWN ON THE LOCK LEVER. PASSENGER SIDE DOOR DOESN'T UNLOCK 95% OF THE TIME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. OTHER'S HAVE COMPLAINED AND HAVE STATED THIS IS A RECALL. I DO NOT SEE ANY RECALL NOTICES FOR THE LOCK ACTUATOR. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HAS HAD ISSUES FOR OVER 6 MONTHS.

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT CONSTANTLY DROPS DOWN AND BLOCKS MY VIEW. IF I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SEE I EITHER HAVE TO HOLD THE VISOR UP WITH ONE HAND OR LAY MY SEAT BACK MORE. BOTH OF THESE SITUATIONS ARE MAJOR SAFETY HAZARDS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA WANTS OVER $100 TO REPLACE ONE SUN VISOR - A MONOPOLY FOR THEM.

WE RECENTLY PURCHASED A BRAND NEW HONDA CRV EX LAST APRIL 22, 2006. I NOTICED LAST MAY 8, WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THERE WAS A CONTINOUS WARNING SIGN THAT THE HATCH GLASS WAS OPENED. I STOPPED AND CHECKED BUT IT WAS CLOSED. I MADE SURE THAT IT WAS CLOSED BUT THE WARNING SIGN NEVER STOP. THEN, LAST MAY 13, MY HUSBAND NOTICED THE SAME TIME AND WHEN WE WERE AT THE PARKING LOT AND TRIED TO LOCK IT USING THE REMOTE CONTROL, IT DIDN'T LOCK ANYMORE. WE DOUBLE CHECKED ALL THE DOORS AND CLOSED THEM ONE BY ONE, BUT THE PROBLEM REMAINED THE SAME. ON THAT SAME DAY, WE DECIDED TO BRING THE CAR TO COLONIAL HONDA (WHERE WE PURCHASED) AND THEY COULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND WE WERE TOLD WE NEEDED TO BRING IT DURING WEEKDAYS. MAY 15, I DROVE THE CAR TO COLONIAL HONDA AND HAD THEIR SERVICE DEPT TO CHECK. WHAT THEY WERE TELLING ME THAT MY EXPECTATION TO THE BRAND NEW CAR IS SO HIGH AND ITS ONLY NATURAL TO ENCOUNTER PROBLEM WITH BRAND NEW CAR. THATS THE POINT I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW CAR TO RELEASE ME FROM ANY PROBLEM AND THIS CAR IS ONLY 3 WEEKS OLD. THEY EVEN GAVE US A SERVICE SMALL MANUAL CAR, THAT MAKES ME FEEL MORE DISAPPOINTED TO THE WHOLE THING. THEY WERE TELLING ME THAT THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR IS A VERY SMALL PROBLEM BUT THE BOTTOM LINE, ITS STILL A PROBLEM AND THEY DONT HAVE ANY CONTROL OF ANY SLIGHT PROBLEM BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY MADE BY MAN. THATS WHAT THEY WERE TELLING ME. A BRAND NEW CAR SHOULD BE TESTED BY QUALITY CONTROL BEFORE RELEASE TO THE MARKET? I RECEIVED A VERY POOR SERVICE FROM THIS COMPANY AND THE FACT THAT THEY GAVE US A CAR WITHOUT INSPECTING IF EVERYTHING WAS FREE FROM ANY PROBLEM. *JB
