| Description of the problem | I purchased this 2015 honda cr-v brand new. I have taken it to the dealer who stated they have heard of this problem but no bulletin has been formally issued yet. The problem consists of two things but both are engine related. When at a stop after about 5-10 seconds the engine gets a rough idle almost like you think at first it's going to die, but it doesn't it's just annoying. However, here is a real problem. When driving down the road, or after pulling out, changing lanes (really no set pattern) the engine (and acceleration) are gone. It's like you just are without go power. Finally it catches up but if you have this happen at the wrong time it could be bad. I have changed lanes and had plenty of space but if your cr-v happens to do this in the process the closing rate is major. The car behind you is on your bumper and fast because it's like you just stop accelerating. This has happened on normal streets, pulling away from stop sign and going down the interstate. Needless to say it's really bad if it happens at the wrong place and at the wrong time. I have contacted the dealer again. And, again i am told we do not show anything (bulletin/recall) on it to have a fix/repair in place. I believe honda needs to recognize the issue and find a fix. Being the dealer has heard this complaint before at least i know i'm not alone. This is not a problem to be dismissed because a major wreck could be the outcome if it continues. As for when it's happened?? It's happened many times but so far i've been fortunate to not to get hit when my car just decides to go into this serious "sleep" mode. Note below i have checked the last date of the occurrence but not to be confused or taken as it's the only time it's occurred. |
