2022 Honda CR-V owner complaints (15)

• STEERING

  The Steering appears to be sticky on highway speeds. Honda has the recall for this exact same issue but seems like 2022 CRV was excluded from the recall. This is a major safety issue which can easily lead to over correction as you need to add extra strength to adjust the steering wheel when driving on the road.

• STEERING

  What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? When I drive, whether at low or highway speeds, the steering sticks in place and needs to be yanked lightly to correct it. This behavior is described by NHTSA Campaign 24V-744, but Honda says that my VIN is not covered. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I have to force correct my steering which can lead to overcorrection. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, it has been confirmed by a diagnostic at Honda East Cincinnati. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Only the dealer service department. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There are no warning lights or messages. The problem appears in daily driving.

• ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  I was driving on hwy when I had to do a hard stop because traffic stopped suddenly in front of my vehicle, no physical contact was made to any cars in front or back of me, suddenly dark smoke started coming from under the hood of car, The car started stalling in middle of the hwy I got out safely opened hood and seen engine area was on fire another person in a vehicle pulled over came out with a fire extinguisher and sprayed to put fire out. there were no prior symptoms or warnings prior to this problem occuring.The car was picked up by my insurance company and taken to a Honda dealer and that is where car is located as they are trying to repair fire damages and no one knows why this fire ocurred.

• ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE

  Driving downhill on Ohio Turnpike at high speed the check engine light started flashing and the car lost power. 2nd time this has happened in one month's time this summer. First time was also on the Turnpike at high rate of speed, going uphill, on a 90+ degree day. Second time was mid 80's, going downhill. Both times after turning car off and on again, check engine light was no longer visible. No codes stored to help determine issue.

• STEERING,LANE DEPARTURE

  My 2022 CRV steering wheel sticks when driving and does not want to turn and is difficult to steer causing me to have to force the wheel and nearly wreck my car. The steering wheel also feels loose and spins around and round while at a stop. The steering wheel knocks/pops during a hard turns. Since this a safety issue well documented online for Honda CRV 2022-2025, I would expect for there to be a recall, but there is not one on my 2022 CRV even though I have been experiencing the issue since 4-6 months ago.

• VISIBILITY/WIPER

  Driving down highway and sunroof spontaneously shattered/exploded. There was no external impact, debris or collision that could explain the failure. Fragments scattered outwards toward roadway as well as lying in sunroof well. I am filing this report to to document the incident and request that NHTSA consider it as part of an ongoing or future investigation into sunroof failures. Car was brought into a local Honda dealer which assumed no responsibility for factory free repair.

• STEERING

  About two years ago on an unfamiliar 2 lane highway the stearing failed to recenter itself at the end of a sweeping corner and felt unusually heavy. Thought it might be tire ruts in the road. Breifly on a couple different occasions the steering didnt feel right, like "is it the road or the car". then a few weeks ago on a very familiar stretch of interstate, the car started to pull right so I corrected but the stearing was heavy/ stiff feeling. It continued for about a mile though bends in the road and then became very heavy, feeling similar to trying to turn the wheels sitting still with the engine off. Then suddenly after that felt normal again. No doubt now something is wrong. My wife usually drives the car. I'm a retired local truck driver of mainly urban driving. A less experinced person could easily apply the needed force to correct, then overcorrect causing a crash. To random to be reproduced by dealer. No warning lamps. Formal complaint made to the manufacturer. It is available for inspection

• STEERING

  It seems that once the vehicle has been driven for a bit and things heat up, the steering will become 'sticky' when trying to turn, even small turns of the steering wheel. This is accompanied by a creaking sound when turning. At high speeds this is especially concerning due to the steering sticking, which then requires a big of additional force, which abruptly yanks the direction of the vehicle as opposed to smooth steering transitions. The problem was diagnosed by a local mechanic center, which informed me that a recall for this exact problem was issued for 2023 and newer models of my vehicle, which is a 2022. Due to my vehicle falling just outside of the 2023 window, the manufacturer would not help me.

• STEERING

  The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds and turning on several occasions, the steering wheel became firm and excessive force was needed to turn the steering wheel. The vehicle was taken to a dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that the rack and pinion and gearbox needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact believed that the failure was associated with an unknown recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 43,700.

• STEERING

  When the car is cold and driving around town the electric power steering is fine. But once the car heats up and especially when driving on the highway there is a noticeable issue with the steering. When trying to maintain my position in the lane or making a gradual turn on a curve, the steering sticks for an instant. This continues for the entire trip. It is difficult to have a smooth drive with the steering. I have been told there are some gears that expand with the heat causing them to have a slight hesitation trying to mesh whenever a turn is made. This seems to me to be a big safety issue wondering when the gear won't mesh properly and I may be unable to navigate a turn. This is not a one time incident. This happens every time the car gets heated up during a drive. I called Honda and was told that my VIN did not qualify for a recall. I have seen other complaints filed with this same problem.

• STEERING

  CRV began a slight resistance feeling when steering coupled with a slight screeching/rubbing sound. Took vehicle to Gilman Honda, in Rosenberg Texas. They kept the car over 24 hours and told us they didn’t notice anything. We went to dealer and drove the vehicle with technician. He stated the noise wasn’t worth a fix and the car was ok to drive until the noise got worse. He stated the car would most likely need a whole power steering rack replacement in the future but was not needed at that moment. The noise is a lot worse now and the resistance on the steering is too. Our major problem is dealer technicians not giving us an accurate diagnosis, so we can make a decision on repairing the vehicle. I have since began reading about steering issues and became aware this new steering component used by Honda has had numerous recorded issues but it has failed to back its product. It doesn’t help that they are also not assessing the problem honestly at the dealer repair locations.

• STEERING

  My 2022 Honda CR-V has a "sticky steering" issue. This is a well-documented problem that has resulted in the recall of many Honda vehicles. It occurs regularly and results in the need to apply additional pressure to the steering wheel in order to correct the vehicle direction on a curve. This often results in an over-correction.

• FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

  The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at a very slow speed in heavy traffic, the vehicle suddenly experienced "Phantom Braking" causing the vehicle to abruptly stop in the middle of the road, causing a second vehicle to almost crash into the rear end of the vehicle. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 18,540.

• STEERING

  The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel failed to turn in the intended direction. The contact stated that the steering wheel was sticking. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the failure had occurred after the vehicle was driven approximately 20–30 minutes. The failure was persistent. The dealer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact was informed that the failure was a known failure with similar vehicles. The contact referenced an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not associated with a recall related to the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 26,000.

• STEERING

  Steering "sticks" when going at highway speeds around long corners in any weather condition. The steering also sticks and clicks in tight turns at any speed, noticeably more often when outside temperatures are 85 degrees and above. I thought it could be the road departure mitigation or the vehicle stability assist system, but neither indicator was shown on the dash during the sticky steering incidents. The sticky steering makes me worried about driving on the highway and having to maneuver corners, since the only way to regain control of the wheel is to lightly jerk it out of the stuck position. The fact that the 2023-2025 models were recalled for the sticky steering made me believe my 2022 CR-V was safe from the steering issue so the first few times it occurred during my warranty period I thought it was an actual safety feature. I was certainly wrong! I have 16,500 miles on my car, do not drive many miles, and am 9 months outside of the warranty. The dealership wants to replace the steering gear on the vehicle in accordance with Honda Service Bulletin 24-011 charging me a cost of $2,200.
