| Description of the problem | I purchased a new 2012 crv in march, 2012 & occasionally at lower speeds it would hesitate for a couple seconds before responding to giving it gas, especially when turning a corner. A couple times i was almost rear ended due to the hesitancy. At that time i thought i had bad gas causing the problem, especially since it only did it perhaps 5 times in the first 15,000 miles & i was unable to duplicate the problem immediately after. Recently around 20,000 miles it seemed to be increasing the frequency that it was happening, so on 11-29-2013 i inquired at the honda dealer & was told that they had received complaints about it from others but had no solution. They suggested that i might avoid using the econ button since that seemed to be part of the problem. They was also another gentleman at the dealership at the same time with a 2012 crv & he had the same problem but with greater frequency than what i was having. I just returned from a trip of about 1,800 miles & the frequency has increased dramatically, 6-8 times during the trip. During heavy traffic i disengaged the econ button, but i still continued to have the problem of it hesitating even with the econ button disengaged. On 12-10-2013 i was back at the dealership for maintenance & told them that the frequency was increasing; they said they could not duplicate it & had no know solution to the problem. They are saying that the problem has to do with "gray matter" |
