“A county wide emergency alert broadcast a very loud alert received by my 2024 CRv's infotainment system. This caused a spike in the car's electrical power. This confused the Idle Stop System. This caused my car to stall in the middle of a left turn onto a heavily trafficked road ([XXX] in [XXX].) I was very lucky that the other cars in the intersection were able to stop, so ther was no collision in this particular case.

“The horn on all 2024 Honda CRV’s cannot meet any safefy standards. When honked it sounds like the Looney Tunes Roadrunner! My daughter almost got run off the road this week even though she was honking the horn. Newer models and older models do not have this wimpy horn as this is the third CRV I have owned.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Jul 2026
“My 2024 Honda CRV Sport Touring Hybrid AWD has the very same engine and parts as the Canadian model. So far the Canadian version with the exact same equipment as well as the U.S. version has a poorly designed HEAD GASKET that have resulted in NUMEROUS engine failures with no warning. In CANADA the engines have been recalled for this safety concern and resulting catastrophic engine failure. My complaint is that since there are many drivers in the U.S. that have the EXACT same engine with the EXACT same problem deserve the SAME recall to correct this manufacturing defect that will result in an UNSAFE condition without repair.”Owner report · Engine · Jul 2026
