2012 Honda CR-V Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	943709
Internal NHTSA #	10478177
Manufacurer	Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Brand	HONDA
Model	CR-V
Model Year	2012
File date	24/08/12
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The power steering system (eps) shuts down making the vehicle difficult to maneuver. It has happened several times, many times while turning at low speed (the very purpose of power steering). One failure occurred in a parking garage and nearly caused a head-on collision. The failure is intermittent and sometimes includes illumination of the eps warning light on the dash but not always, and the light has never sealed-in. The symptoms are similar to what is described in complaints against the honda fit that led to service bulletin 09-043 that applied to both the fit and the civic hybrid (see http://townhall-talk. Edmunds. Com/direct/view/. F1346c0/58). The eps system is newly installed in the cr-v in the 2012 model. Because there is no record of this problem for the cr-v, honda dealers (we have contacted more than one) are requiring that the failure occur while they drive the vehicle before they will fix anything. The vehicle has been taken to the dealer twice with the same complaint most recently the week of 9/24 and left with the dealer overnight. This complaint is being logged to ensure this failure is on record. Based on the fact that the failure is virtually identical to that described for a similar component in earlier fit and civic vehicles, it only seems reasonable to apply the same fix without the need for diagnosis and replication of the symptom.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
