This component is suffering from an intermittent failure that creates an unpredictable and immediate strand risk, compromising driver safety by leaving the vehicle unable to start or power down correctly in potentially hazardous or isolated environments. Manufacturer American Honda Motor Co. is fully aware of this systemic defect, having issued Technical Service Bulletin TSB 20-116 (Diagnostic Trouble Code DTC B12C5) specifically addressing ignition start/stop switch failure. Despite this being a documented engineering flaw admitted by the manufacturer, American Honda Case Management (Case 16436837) is actively enforcing predatory financial barriers to prevent remediation. They are refusing to issue a conditional diagnostic waiver to verify the code, choosing instead to force an upfront out-of-pocket dealer diagnostic fee onto the consumer with no guarantee of goodwill coverage. Furthermore, corporate representatives handling this file on July 1, 2026, actively refused to provide their names or employee identification numbers when requested. I request that NHTSA review this case file and investigate American Honda\u2019s bad-faith deployment of cost barriers to intentionally depress the reporting and remediation of a documented, safety-critical manufacturing defect.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"HR-V","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11742593,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"03/26/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"06/07/2026","vin":"3CZRU6H51HM","components":"POWER TRAIN","summary":"THE CVT TRANSMISSION BELT IS BREAKING APART WHICH SUDDENLY SLOWED THE CAR WHILES DRIVING ON A FREEWAY, AMERICAN HONDA QUIETLY SENT NEW BULLETIN TO DEALERS WITHOUT INFORMING ME AS A OWNER OF THIS CAR FROM 02/2019.

The vehicle was covered under the extended warranty program Honda implemented specifically for the known CVT issues affecting 2016\u20132020 model years.In  On 3/10/26 the CVT failed at approximately 96,000 miles. The vehicle was towed to an authorized Honda dealership, where technicians confirmed premature belt deterioration and breakage. Prior to the failure, I had the vehicle serviced at the dealership for the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software update outlined in Honda Service Bulletin 21-047. During that visit, I reported a noticeable burning smell, which I now believe originated from the failing transmission belt. The dealership assured me there were no issues and stated that the software update had adjusted the gear ratio to reduce strain on the transmission. The vehicle was returned to me with no further action recommended. Subsequent communication with American Honda revealed that the company had been aware of widespread CVT belt issues in these model years. Rather than issue a full recall, Honda extended the powertrain warranty to 7 years or 150,000 miles (whichever occurs first). My repeated attempts to escalate the matter with Honda Customer Service, including multiple requests for contact information for a regional manager, were unsuccessful. After several weeks of delays\u2014during which my vehicle remained at the dealership for over 20 +days\u2014Honda Corporate initially offered to cover a remanufactured CVT replacement at a cost of $4,500 to me. The dealership ultimately assisted by reducing my out-of-pocket expense to $2,900.I find it unacceptable that a vehicle with only 96,000 miles required a major transmission replacement costing nearly $3,000, especially after Honda had already acknowledged the defect through a technical service bulletin and an extended warranty.

At the same time, the dashboard illuminated multiple warning lights simultaneously and the vehicle entered limp mode without warning. The vehicle rapidly decelerated and was unable to maintain speed with surrounding traffic. This created an immediate and serious safety hazard and nearly resulted in a collision, as vehicles behind were approaching at highway speed. The driver was forced to make an emergency maneuver to reach the shoulder and stop to avoid a crash.  After this incident, the vehicle was parked and not driven. Several days later, the vehicle would start and shift normally, but would not move in Drive, Reverse, or any gear. The gear selector moves and the gear indicator changes, but the vehicle does not engage or move at all. The engine revs normally with no propulsion. This condition is consistent and reproducible.  The failure appears to involve the continuously variable transmission (CVT) or an internal drivetrain component. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.  This defect posed a significant risk to the safety of the driver and other motorists due to the sudden loss of propulsion at highway speed and the inability to safely maintain speed or clear traffic. The later total loss of drive further increases the risk of becoming stranded in unsafe locations such as roadways or intersections.  A Honda dealership was contacted but did not provide a resolution. No repairs have been performed. No collision occurred.

The week of Thanksgiving, my wife\u2019s HR-V dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. I brought the car to my mechanic and he said I needed a new transmission. I called the local Honda (Kastor) Dealership in Napa, CA where I expressed my frustration. I asked specifically about any recall issues on the transmissions. The representative advised there were no recalls on my vehicle. The full transcription of my conversation with the Representative is available upon request as is the the Audio file.  Subsequent to that call and after I had given direction to my mechanic to replace the transmission, I discovered this Honda Notice online: [XXX]   The notice extends the warranty for the CVT for seven years. I called the Kastor dealership back and spoke with Santiago Pizano. Mr. Pizano advised me that if I got the vehicle fixed at the dealership Honda would reimburse me for 50%- 75% of the cost. The catch is I had to get the transmission replaced at the dealership and then \u2018Larry\u2019 would authorize the credit. I asked Mr. Pizano two questions. First, why I was not advised of this opportunity when I called on the 25th of November. Mr. Pizano researched my call and advised it was because I asked about recalls on my car\u2019s transmission and I did not ask about credit for a transmission replacement. Apparently, I needed to phrase my question specifically to i) know about the CVT issue and ii) ask for reimbursement for the replacement. I then asked if I could speak with the person who makes the decision as to whether reimbursement is provided to a customer. Mr. Pizano advised that the person\u2019s name is Larry, but I could not get his contact information.  The cost of the new transmission was $7,667.77.  It is outrageous that I was not advised about the Honda reimbursement or given Larry's contact info.

Once repairs began I was contacted and informed that the broken flywheel had caused additional damage and the car now requires an entirely new engine. I purchased the car brand new in July 2017.  In July 2020 I received a recall notification from Honda indicating that there were problems with the transmission and an entirely new transmission was installed with all costs covered by the manufacturer.

Unfortunately this situation occurred in a very dangerous location as I was about to enter onto a highway. As my car began to drive slower and slower, I was able to pull into a turning area where the car wouldn't drive any further. I was stuck in a high traffic location having to waive cars around me and no ability for a tow truck to get in and pick up the car. My location also left other drivers in danger as the people exiting the highway were also flying around a corner and past us at speeds of 45-60 mph. I had to call 911 to send out police to block off the highway exit and then push my car across this very busy road with me inside steering. It was a very tense and scary situation. Upon making it to a safe location, I had the car towed to my dealership where I found out the following day that the transmission problem was due to some sort of factory defect which of course wasn't communicated to customers ahead of time and there were no recalls in place. I do not believe Honda should be allowed to just ignore this problem until a customer's vehicle breaks down, possibly in a very dangerous, high-speed location, and then fix the problem like the customer should be thankful for the service. Certainly this is a situation where Honda should have done something ahead of time to correct the issue when they evidently knew it was a problem.

A TEST DRIVE DIDN'T REVEAL A BRAKE/ACCELERATOR CROSS-OVER PROBLEM (A TEST DRIVE AROUND THE BLOCK ISN'T MEANT TO FAILURE-TEST IT). THE NEXT WEEK MY WIFE AND I TRAVELED FROM OUR HOME IN WV TO VISIT A DAUGHTER IN MI. DRIVING ON I-70 THROUGH COLUMBUS I GOT CAUGHT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC; THE DRIVER AHEAD OF US DECELERATED QUICKLY AND I HAD TO JUMP ON MY BRAKE TO AVOID A COLLISION. U WITTINGLY, MY RIGHT FOOT ALSO DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. BEFORE IMPACT THE ENGINE PAUSED - YIELDING TO THE BRAKE ( LEARNED LATE THAT IS A SAFETY OVER-RIDE FUNCTION)  WE WERE SCARED! I PULLED OUT OF THE TRAFFIC AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO  TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT HAD HAPPENED. WITH THE ENGINE STOPPED I REPEATED THE SCARY OPERATION AND DISCOVERED THAT THE FULLY DEPRESSED BRAKE PAD WAS LEVEL WITH THE GAS PEDAL. I CORRECTED THE POTENTIAL REPEAT NEAR DISASTER BY BRAKING WITH MY LEFT FOOT.  ON THE WAY HOME (AGAIN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON I-70 I HAD ANOTHER CLOSE CALL, WITH RIGHT FOOT HOVERING OVER THE GAS PEDAL I MASHED ON THE BRAKE WITH MY LEFT FOOT. MY RIGHT FOOT WAS UNDER THE BRAKE PEDAL.MY LEFT FOOT NOW FORCED MY RIGHT FOOT TO DEPRESS THE GAS PEDAL. THE BRAKE OVER-RIDE FUNCTION SAVED US AGAIN . . . BARELY!  AT HOME I COMPARED THE HR-V WITH MY 2000 MODEL CR-V. THE CR-V HAS MORE TOTAL FOOT SPACE AND THE PEDALS ARE SEPARATED SUCH AS TO PERMIT BRAKING WITH MY RIGHT FOOT. AND WHEN FULLY DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL IS MORE THAN A HALF INCH ABOVE THE GAS PEDAL.  BELIEVING THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE HR-V ON SATURDAY, JUNE 10 I RETURNED THE  HR-V TO THE DEALER COMPLAINING THAT I AM AFRAID OF IT; HE COULD MODIFY THE BRAKE OR, THAT FAILING, THEY SHOULD TAKE THE DANGEROUS VEHICLE BACK  TODAY, MONDAY, JUNE 19 THE DEALER POSSESSES THE HR-V THAT I FEAR AND REFUSE TO DRIVE.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"HR-V","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11000029,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":true,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/19/2017","dateComplaintFiled":"06/19/2017","vin":"","components":"VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL","summary":"I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AND THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A SIGN, FLATTENING IT.
