| Attempted to park my vehicle and was unable to turn the key to eject it from the ignition. this has continued to happen intermittently, however, honda says they cannot recreate the problem, therefor they cannot fix the problem. the car is only 3 years old and i have to make several attempts to straighten the wheels in order to eject the key. this has been happening for approximately 2 weeks, very frustrating, parking and reparking until i can get the key out, and apparently it's my problem, not hondas! | |||

| Bought a brand new 2009 cr-v ex and had issues with tpms light coming on randomly while driving. brought the car back to the dealer a couple of times and had tpms sensors replaced and tpms box. still the problem persists and been using my car for almost 3 years now waiting for honda to fix the car. there were no tsbs for it and no fix for it. i was told by a representative in a dealer not to worry as i am not alone having this issue. | |||

| I bought a new 2009 honda cr-v in dec 2008. after around 30k miles or so, i noticed the car pulling to the left at highway speeds. i took the car in to a local mechanic for an alignment and tire rotation but nothing they did fixed the issue. i then brought it to the honda dealership since it was still under warranty and they conducted their own alignment and tire rotation (at my expense since alignments are not covered under warranty). this still did not fix the issue and the dealership told me there was nothing else they could do. my car still pulls to the left at highway speeds. i am concerned that this issue may get worse and cause an accident. | |||

| 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. | |||

| I had been driving for about 90 minutes in a snowstorm. the road was snowpacked but it was daytime and visibility was acceptable. the vehicle was handling just fine as one would expect when taking extra care due to inclement conditions. i felt safe and in control at about 45 to 50 mph. when suddenly the car began feeling strange....like everything about the handling had gotten loose. it felt like we were swaying, and like we were slipping into ruts, but there were none. road conditions had not changed. my passenger said that it felt like she was in a boat. i kept fighting the steering so it wouldn't cross into the oncoming traffic lane. i slowed to about 30. i pulled off the road onto the shoulder to examine the wheels, but found nothing out of the ordinary. we pressed on at slow speeds as other vehicles began passing us. i pulled off again and shut off the engine. thought about calling aaa, but we were in the middle-of-nowhere, about midway between guymon, ok and tucumcari, nm. we were determined to get to tucumcari where we could stop at a dealer for service. the out-of-control, swaying sensation persisted until we drove through a section of highway that must have been salted, because it was slushy. after a few minutes in that slushy condition, the car began stabilizing, and resumed normal handling. even though we encountered more snowpacked stretches, the malady never returned. it had been a terrifying couple hours. we took the car to a dealer in mesa. they could find nothing wrong. recently the dealer here in minnesota from whom i purchased the car examined it and found nothing, although they suspected an alignment problem. they suggested advising you. we have not experienced the problem since that one time. on the other hand, we have not driven through a snowstorm since then....and, frankly, we will be nervous the next time we do encounter similar snow conditions if nothing is resolved about what happened. | |||
