| In 2007, we purchased a 2007 honda crv to tow, four wheels down. we purchased the blue ox aventa lx, bx7445 tow bar class iv (10,000 lb for a 2 inch receiver) and the base plate bx2246 made for the 2007 honda cr-v, we found that the front fascia of the honda had pulled away and upon further inspection, discovered the blue ox base plate had failed. i mean, totally failed, the metal (not the bolts) had ripped, this happened on both sides, where the base plate is attached (bolted) to the frame. the base plate, was now only being held (and also our vehicle) only by the safety cables. *tr | |||

| My honda crv 2007 vehicle did a sudden acceleration of half the vehicle length when attempting to park the car. if anyone would have been in front of my vehicle, they would be dead. in light of all the toyota press, i decided to report this. i did have a floor mat in place, was it caught in the gas pedal? have their been any report of trouble with the honda crv? this occurred once only and i did remove floor mats. this occurred on november 23, 2009. i would appreciate any information on this as it was very frightening and still concerns me.. *tr | |||

| I was involved in a minor collision and the amount of damage to the total damage to my 2007 honda cr-v was well over $8,000. i was rear ended by someone and pushed into the car in front of me. there was no damage at all to the car i was pushed into and only minor damage to the car that rear-ended me. the rear end damage to my car was over $3,000 and the front end damage to my car was over $5,000. this was a very low speed collision on a local street and even the collision shop manager was stunned at the amount of damage to the car, especially the front end. the compressor of the air conditioner was damaged beyond repair by this minor collision and had to be replaced. my auto insurance had to pay for this. the collision shop manager said he'd never seen anything quite like that - he asked me if this was a high speed collision (it was not), then asked me if the car i was pushed into had a trailer hitch sticking out (it had nothing sticking out). i now am reading numerous consumer complaints by people about the air conditioner compressor in this car in which the dealer stated that the compressor was damaged by a pebble from the road. based on these complaints and my own experience, i can only conclude that there is a serious defect in the manufacture of the 2007 honda cr-v's air conditioner compressor, causing the consumers to have to endure huge costs to replace this compressor because of such minor things as pebbles striking the part and low speed minor fender benders!!! *tr | |||

| Took car to dealer with warm air conditioning blowing. dealer stated that condenser had a hole from road debris; repair costs was $765. subsequent search of honda forums revealed ongoing problem with frequent air conditioner failures, and exact same line from dealer about road debris. air conditioning failure in the deep south was an unacceptable problem in a 9 month old car with 20,000 miles. repeated failures in different models was indicative of poor quality, and leaking coolant was a dangerous substance.*ak | |||

| I purchased a 2007 honda crv with 2 miles on it three weeks ago, the other day my a/c stopped blowing cold i called the dealer and took it in. i was informed it was the a/c condenser and had to be replaced, this was not covered by the warranty ,and the cost would be $800 . according to them a rock or some road debris damaged i. i could not believe this, it was my first brand new car and could afford car payments and car repairs. after making a few calls to the general sales manager they agreed to fix it, only because the dealership deposited my check early and it bounced. i have checked online, and this has happened to many many honda customers so i called 1-800-999-1009 and spoke to honda customer service and was told there was no recall, and itwas not covered by the warranty. her and the service echnician at tampa hondaland both told me that i needed to buy or have made some kind of cover m to protect the a/c condenser so that it hopefully won't happen again....what? this was something that should be done by honda or they should warranty this if it happened to consumers. thanks for taking the time to listen to me.*ak | |||
