My breaks stopped working! Car was in drive and my foot was on the break and the break did not function and drove forward. I was able to stop this before hitting anything and turned the car on, but this could have been catastrophic as I was driving to work at the hospital.

2023 Honda CR-V, purchased new in Mar 2023 from Friendly Honda, Poughkeepsie, NY. All regular service completed at Lia Honda, Brewster, NY. On [XXX], car was driven without incident and parked inside a garage. On [XXX] upon ignition, car immediately displayed a “christmas tree” of warnings for every major system, including but not limited to: Electric Power Steering, AWD, Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation, Hill Descent, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keeping Assistance. Behavior has continued every time the car is started. Car remains drivable, but all safety and driver assistance systems are disabled. In addition, on [XXX] and [XXX], after stopping at a stop sign, car had very limited power and could only accelerate to 30 mph on a flat road and 20 mph on an incline. Problem was resolved only by coming to a complete stop then accelerating again. This is a significant safety concern, as if this were to happen in stop-and-go traffic on a highway, the car would be unable to accelerate to highway speeds. On 6/20/26, I took the car to Lia Honda in Brewster, NY for diagnosis. They reported a failed Electric Power Steering Control Unit/Steering Rack (trouble code U0420-68). They explained that this single electrical component failure also caused all other components to report failures because they are connected in a ring. Estimated repair cost $4,595.98. I have filed a complaint with Honda to request out-of-warranty coverage. Car is ≈3 years old, 3 months out of warranty, and only lightly used at 17,484 miles. Note that this car falls under NHTSA recall 24V-744, which pertains to a manufacturing defect in the worm gear of the Electric Power Steering. We had the recall service completed on 12/26/24, but it seems possible that continued friction in the worm gear may result in overloading of the EPS control unit. Other Honda CR-V owners have reported similar issues online, so this does not appear to be an isolated incident.

Subject: Complaint Regarding Failure to Perform Recall Repair on Honda CR-V Hybrid Issue Description: On [XXX], I purchased a Honda CR-V Hybrid on credit from a dealership in Weston, Florida. In November 2024, I was informed that my vehicle was included in a Honda recall campaign due to a defect affecting its safe operation. I repeatedly contacted the dealership where I purchased the vehicle, but they informed me that the necessary replacement parts were not available. They promised to call me once the parts arrived, but from November 2024 to March 2025 (more than 4 months), I have not been given the opportunity to schedule the repair. As of today, the dealership has failed to take any action to remedy the defect, which violates my rights and poses a safety risk to the operation of my vehicle. Request for Action: I request that the NHTSA: Investigate this matter and require the dealership to perform the necessary repairs within a reasonable timeframe. Clarify my rights in this situation, including whether I am entitled to a vehicle replacement or a loaner car while waiting for the repair. I urge you to take action, as operating a vehicle with defective parts may present a safety hazard.

Is 116 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2023 and 2026, roughly 35 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
