| Description of the problem | Purchased new 2014 honda cr-v on 12/19/14. During the purchase the sales person was specifically asked about the tire pressure monitoring system (tpms) problem, which per the nhtsa complaint process has existed in the honda 2014 cr-v models since september 2013. The sales person was not aware of any problems. Asked the sales person to verify the manufacture date of the vehicle to be purchased and was told it was september 2014. The next day (12/20/14) while driving the vehicle the tpms light came on. The vehicle had been driven some 25 miles (the odometer read 115 miles when purchased). Tire pressure was checked and found to be 30 psi per specifications. Reset the tmps following owner manual instructions. Called the dealership and scheduled an appointment for 12/22/14. A software patch (version oha240 december 2014) was installed. Honda continues to manufacture and sell a vehicle with a known potential safety defect. Past "fixes" do not seem address the problem. When will someone address this issue and solve it? |
