| Manufacurer | Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) |
| Brand | HONDA |
| Model | CR-V |

| Component | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Front doors started locking automatically. After approx. 9 months all doors started locking automatically. All doors would lock immediately after engine was turned off, locking all occupants inside. Would lock when car was idling in park and was unable to open doors manually with key from outside. Car was stolen then recovered. Whatever was used to steal it must have reset computer. Because for approx. 1 week after recovery door locks worked fine. Now it is back to the problem as before. My 1 yr. Old grandson was locked in the car for a brief time due to this issue, luckily one of the rear windows was down and my daughter crawled thru. I have read there is a recall for this problem on 2006 honda crv, but not for the 2007. It is possible that left over defective parts from 2006 models were used in 2007. I am told i could have to pay up to $900. 00 to repair this problem. I not only don't have the money, but i don't accept that it should be my problem. It's not like it's from wear and tear or misuse of the vehicle. This is my third honda i've owned, and my last unless someone would at least acknowledge there is a problem here. Thank you |
