 Description of the problemI purchased my 2013 honda cr-v new on february 8, 2013. Today the right side headlight went out. Because of a history of problems with headlights on previously owned cr-vs, i am not looking forward to what's ahead with the headlights on this car. I have owned a new 1997 crv, and a new 2006 crv. In both previous vehicles, which were purchased new and traded with over 250k miles on each, i had recurring problems with headlights constantly going out, often one within days of the other, and especially with the 2006 crv, every 3 to 4 months. I went to several honda dealerships on numerous occasions and was always told that there was recall or persistent problem. I commute 120 miles roundtrip daily for work, and i work in a rural area, covering 6 very rural counties. Sometimes my headlight would go out while i was driving on dark, 2 lane rural highways. In the 2006 vehicle, my headlights were going out so frequently that i started buying 2 bulbs at a time so that i always had a back up bulb. This is a serious safety hazard that honda has apparently avoided fixing over the years. I am aware of the owner blogs for crv-s where many honda crv owners have complained about this. I have put family members on notice that if i am involved in an accident in my car at night and cannot speak for myself, they should pay special attention to whether my headlights were functioning properly. In addition, on this 2013 crv, neither the low beam nor the high beam head lights seem bright enough at night. Although i love the cr-v otherwise, because of this persistent problem with the headlights that i believe honda is aware of and has chosen not to repair, this will very likely be the last honda that i purchase. This is a serious safety hazard, and i would not be surprised if there is eventually a class action lawsuit against honda because of this problem.

  • 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.
