| A rattling noise erupted from underneath my 2009 crv, it was discovered that the heat shields mounts on the catalytic converters were rusted through at the mounts and were about to fall off the vehicle. the vehicle in only 3 years old, i am the second owner, purchased vehicle in feb 2010. after further inspection it was discovered that the catalytic converter heat shields were being held on by radiator hose clamps. this means that in just one year the mounts to the heat shied were already rusted through. i purchased this from a honda dealership. after calling the local honda dealership i was told this was normal and not covered through the rust warranty. heat shields are there for a reason and in order to prevent fires. | |||

| While stopping or stopped for traffic light(s), with foot on brake, engine reved up to 2k rpm without any action on my part. when light changed, and brake was released, acceleration and car performance bcame normal again. this has happened three separate times in the past six weeks. in addition, turning the a/c off or on had no effect on engine rpm. note: during the anomaly, if transmission was moved from d to n, engine would rev up to 5k rpm, and would drop back to 2k rpm when transmission put back into d all this happened with foot still on the brake. for the record: car was taken to honda dealer twice for this anomaly, the memory dumped, and no data found. honda claims there is nothing wrong with the car. | |||

| Honda crv 2009 the exhaust pipe is too close to the right rear tire. the heat from the exhaust pipe is damaging the tire and the smaell is entering the cabin. there is a smell of burning rubber when parking car after driving. the original equipment tire had premature failure of the belt and had to be replaced. the condition continues on the new tire. suggest wrapping the exhaust pipe with a length of insulating tape to protect the tire from heat damage. | |||
