| Description of the problem | I bought the car in august 2004. After a few months drove it to the mountain, put the snow chain and the car couldn't go more than 10mph, instead it make a loud roaring noise. Took to dealer but couldn't duplicate the problem. Call direct to honda they said they couldn't do anything since the dealer didn't find any problems. Since than we drive another car whenever we went to the snow. Last weekend we went to palm springs aerial tram and the car make a loud noise that sound like it came from somewhere in the drivetrain parts. I thing this must have related to the same problem wen i went to the snow. I call a friend that has an independent car repair shop and told him what had happened. He advised me to call honda because the car is defective since it was new. I called honda and they said to bring to a different dealer than the one that i went on the first incident. I went to a dealer and again couldn't duplicate the problem, paid $220 for diagnostic and they said the problem has nothing to do with any parts of the drivetrain, i checked on the website and found alot of people have similar problem posted on the crv forum /blog. I wonder if nhtsa can help us to complain to honda for related problem and have them repair the car free of charge since it was defective. *kb |
