I HAVE A 2008 HONDA CR-V AND MY REAR DOOR UNLOCKS ITSELF AUTOMATICALLY. FOR A WHILE I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO LOCK MANUALLY, BY LOCK DOOR BUTTON, BUT NO LONGER.

DOOR LOCKS. WHEN IT IS WARM OUTSIDE ABOVE 55 DEGREES THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY LOCKED. IF IT IS BELOW 55 DEGREES THE DOORS WILL LOCK BY ITSELF.

IT IS ONLY THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR AND HONDA WANTS TO CHARGE 105 DOLLARS JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG. THAT IS NOT EVEN TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAT THEY KNOW EXISTS. *TR

AT ONE POINT WHEN TRYING TO OPEN THE CAR DOOR BY PRESSING LOCK/OPEN, IT WOULD CLICK OPEN AND LOCK JUST AS QUICKLY. IT TOOK A TOTAL OF 5 MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO OPEN CAR DOOR WHILE HOLDING DOOR HANDLE AND PULLING AS SOON AS IT CLICKED. SECOND: THE CAR ACCELERATES WHEN PRESSING BRAKE, IN ORDER TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT THE BRAKE MUST BE PRESSED AT A DISTANCE OF THREE CARS. BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE VERY SERIOUS AND A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. HONDA DOES NOT HAVE RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM.

I ALSO HAVE A HONDA CRV 2008. THE LEFT REAR DOOR STARTED UNLOCKING WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. I USED TO BE ABLE TO PLAY WITH THE DOORS AND THE LOCKING MECHANISM A BIT AND FINALLY GET IT TO STAY LOCKED. HOWEVER, SINCE IT FIRST STARTED, IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND NOW IS NOT LOCKING AT ALL WHICH PRESENTS BOTH A SAFETY AND SECURITY RISK. I SPOKE WITH HONDA AND THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS SAFETY/SECURITY ISSUE. HOWEVER FINDLAW.COM SAYS THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2012 CRVS AND ACURA ILXS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. I AM CURIOUS AS TO WHY IT WAS NOT EXTENDED TO ALL CRVS EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE CAR'S AUTO-LOCK SYSTEM HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK THE CAR DOORS WHEN DRIVING. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE DOORS STARTED TO AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK ITSELF. SO, WHENEVER THE CAR IS STATIONARY (I.E. STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN) AND THEN GOES INTO DRIVE, THE CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY LOCK BUT THEN THE ONE DOOR WILL UNLOCK. EVEN WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN PARKED AND TURNED OFF, THE DOOR WILL NOT STAY LOCKED THEREBY POSING A BIG RISK IN AN EVENT OF SOMEONE TRYING TO ENTER INTO THE CAR OR STEAL SOMETHING. *TR

AT TIMES PASSENGER FRONT DOOR LOCKS CAN NOT BE UNLOCKED. AT OTHER TIMES LOCK WILL RANDOMLY LOCK AND UNLOCK DURING WHICH DOOR CAN NOT BE UNLOCKED.

MY CAR FIRST BEGAN AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING CONSTANTLY EVERY TIME I RELEASED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND BEGAN TO ACCELERATE WITH THE GAS PEDAL. A FEW WEEKS LATER I NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AND REAR DOORS WERE NO LONGER LOCKING. I TRIED TO LOCK THEM MANUALLY BUT THEY AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK. MY CAR IS STILL CONTINUING TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK EVERY TIME I SWITCH FROM THE BRAKE TO GAS PEDAL ONLY NOW IT MAKES A VERY LOUD, STARTLING BUZZ SOUND FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WITH EACH LOCK. THE ISSUES SEEM TO FLUCTUATE BETWEEN NOT LOCKING AT ALL, LOCKING CONSTANTLY, AND BUZZING LOUDLY WITH EACH LOCK EACH TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. IT ALSO SEEMS THAT THE CHILD LOCKS ARE ACTIVATING THEMSELVES AS YOU CANNOT OPEN EITHER PASSENGER DOOR FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. THIS IS BECOMING A GRAVE SAFETY CONCERN BEING THAT I CANNOT LOCK MY DOORS PROPERLY. I BECAME VERY FRUSTRATED TO FIND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE QUITE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CR-V'S MADE BETWEEN 2007-2011 AND HONDA HAS NOT RECALLED THEM. FIXING THIS ISSUE THROUGH THE DEALER IS VERY COSTLY AND DOES NOT PROMISE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. HONDA CAMPAIGNS TO "START SOMETHING SPECIAL". I HAVE YET TO SEE WHAT IT IS THAT THEY HAVE STARTED THAT IS SO "SPECIAL" WHEN IT COMES TO REPAIRING THEIR OWN MISTAKES TO BENEFIT THE SAFETY AND CONVENIENCE OF THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS. *TR

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I HEARD MY DOORS LOCK AGAIN. THEY USUALLY ONLY LOCK WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND NOT AGAIN DURING THAT PARTICULAR TRIP. IT KEPT DOING IT AFTER I WOULD COME TO A STOP AND THEN ACCELERATE. NOW IT MAKES A SCREECHING NOISE EVERYTIME I PUT IT INTO DRIVE. SOMETIMES IT LOCKS, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. THE DEALER WANTS 330.00 PER DOOR TO CHANGE OUT THE ACTUATOR. I UNDERSTAND HONDA IS INVOLVED IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OVER THIS. I CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHY THEY WOULD NOT ISSUE A VOLUNTARY RECALL OVER THIS. THERE ARE SAFETY ISSUES INVOLVED FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. HONDA USUALLY HAS A GREAT REPUTATION FOR MAKING A RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE VEHICLE. THEY SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS, NOT THE BOTTOM LINE. THEY WILL LOSE CUSTOMERS... *TR

IN AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION, ONE CANNOT UNLOCK THE DOOR TO ESCAPE THE VEHICLE IN AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION. TO ME BOTH OF THESE ARE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS.

LOCKS STARTED LOCKING WITHIN A SECOND OF BEING UNLOCKED. SO I COULD UNLOCK THE DOORS WITH THE KEY BUTTON AND PULL QUICKLY TO OPEN THE DOOR TO GET IN. THE LOCKS WOULD ENGAGE AS SOON AS I GOT IN. HOWEVER, IF I TRIED TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE DOOR FROM INSIDE, I WOULD HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS, AND IT WAS DIFFICULT. ONCE THE DOORS CLOSED THE LOCKS WOULD IMMEDIATELY ENGAGE. AS IT TURNS OUT I LOCKED MY PURSE AND KEYS INSIDE. MY SPARE KEY WOULD NOT OPEN IT. THERE WAS NO MANUAL OVERRIDE! THIS IS MY CONCERN.

MY 2008 HONDA CRV IN 2010 BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR DOOR LOCK AND THEN THE HATCH LOCK. WHEN I PUT THE REAR DOOR LOCK INTO CHILD SAFETY MODE AND TOOK IT OFF CHILD SAFETY MODE, THE DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT UNLOCK. IT KEPT LOCKING AND I WOULD HAVE TO MANUALLY PRESS DOWN ON THE LOCK BUTTON IN ORDER TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. I TOOK IT TO A HONDA CAR DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE ACTUATOR AND IT HAPPENS OFTEN TO HONDA VEHICLES AND IT WOULD COST ME $380 TO REPAIR IT EVEN THOUGHT THE PART I WAS TOLD WAS ACTUALLY ONLY $80 DOLLARS. TO ME AND TO EVERYONE ELSE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT IF IT HAPPENS OFTEN TO HONDA VEHICLES. I REFUSED THE REPAIR BECAUSE IT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE. LATER IN A FEW WEEKS, MY HATCH WOULD NOT UNLOCK UNLESS THE DEFECTIVE REAR DOOR LOCK WAS ALSO UNLOCKED. NOW, IT IS 2014 AND AS OF FRIDAY, 2/28/14, ALL MY LOCKS ARE NOW LOCKING IMMEDIATELY AFTER I USED MY AUTOMATIC DOOR UNLOCK ON MY KEY FOB. I CAN'T EVEN GET INTO MY CAR UNLESS I'M QUICK ABOUT IT BEFORE IT LOCKS ON ME AGAIN. THEN WHEN I WANT TO GET OUT OF MY CAR AND THE DOOR UNLOCKS, BEFORE I CAN EVEN OPEN THE DOOR TO GET OUT OF MY CAR, ALL THE LOCKS LOCK UP AGAIN WITHOUT MY HAVING DONE ANYTHING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. THE DOOR LOCKS ARE DEFECTIVE AND HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THESE DEFECTS. HERE IS THE LINK TO ARFC.ORG WHICH HAS A LIST OF COMPLAINTS BY OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS HAVING THE SAME DEFECTIVE ISSUES: HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2008/HONDA/CR-V/LATCHES_LOCKS_LINKAGES/PROBLEM.ASPX.

THE FIRST INCIDENT INVOLVED THE BACK GATE WHICH WOULD NOT UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB. I TRIED LOCKING/UNLOCKING FROM THE DRIVER'S INTERIOR DOOR CONTROLS AND ALSO WITH THE KEY FOB. ATTEMPTS WERE MADE WITH THE CAR RUNNING, IGNITION TURNED TO ACCESSORY, AND ALSO WITH THE CAR TURNED OFF. NOTHING CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THIS PERSISTED INTO THE NEXT DAY WHEN IT STARTED WORKING WITHOUT ANY PARTICULAR INTERVENTION BEYOND MY PREVIOUS ATTEMPTS. THE PROBLEM REAPPEARED A FEW DAYS LATER, ONLY NOW IT IS THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. I LOCK THE CAR WITH THE KEY FOB, BUT THE PASSENGER DOOR REMAINS UNLOCKED. THE SAME IS TRUE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO LOCK USING THE SWITCH ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR. LIKE OTHERS WHO HAVE POSTED ON THIS SITE, THIS CAR ALSO ATTEMPTS TO LOCK/UNLOCK AT UNEXPECTED TIMES WELL ABOVE THE USUAL SPEED WHERE THE AUTOMATIC LOCK NORMALLY OPERATES. THIS IS A SAFETY AND SECURITY RISK. MY YOUNG PASSENGERS ARE AT RISK IF THE LOCKS DISENGAGE. MY PROPERTY IS NOT SECURE IF THE LOCKS ARE NOT RELIABLE. MY PERSONAL SAFETY IS AT RISK IF MY ALARM SYSTEM FAILS TO SECURE ALL DOORS. IT IS UNSETTLING TO CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCE OF BEING UNEXPECTEDLY TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR. IT IS EQUALLY TROUBLESOME TO DRIVE THE CAR NOT KNOWING IF MY CHILDREN AND I MAY BECOME LOCKED OUT IN THE DARK, IN A PARKING DECK, OR IN A REMOTE LOCATION DURING TRAVEL. REPAIRING EACH LOCK AS IT FAILS IS A RISKY GAMBLE, BUT I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE ACTUATORS (APPROX $250 X 5 DOORS) ON EVERY DOOR AS A PREEMPTIVE REPAIR, EITHER. *TR

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW IN NOVEMBER 2007. IT IS A 2008 HONDA CR-V 5DR 2WD EX. A COUPLE/FEW YEARS BACK, THE LOCKS STARTED ACTING UP. IT WAS ALWAYS THE SAME TWO, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND THE REAR DOOR. I WOULD PUSH THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY KEY, AND THE OTHER 3 DOORS WOULD UNLOCK, BUT THOSE 2 WOULD NOT. I TRIED USING THE UNLOCK/LOCK BUTTONS ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR, AND AFTER HITTING THE LOCK BUTTON FIRST AND THEN UNLOCK SEVERAL TIMES, IT WOULD WORK AND THOSE 2 DOORS WOULD EVENTUALLY UNLOCK. AND THEN SOMETIMES ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY WOULD START UNLOCKING AGAIN USING THE KEY. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ANNOYANCE FOR THE PAST 2-3 YEARS. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE OR MILEAGE WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED. PROBABLY ABOUT A YEAR AGO, THEY FINALLY STOPPED COMPLETELY. THEY WILL NOT UNLOCK AT ALL USING THE KEY OR THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE PASSENGER ONE, OF COURSE, I CAN MANUALLY UNLOCK FROM THE INSIDE IF NEEDED. BUT THE REAR I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO WAY OF OPENING THAT DOOR. COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!!! IT HAS BEEN A COMPLETE PAIN TO NOT HAVE THAT STORAGE AREA. I HAVE HAD TO LOWER THE BACK SEATS TO PUT ANYTHING IN THERE. IT ALSO CAUSED ME TO INCUR DAMAGE TO MY CAR THIS YEAR. I HAD A FLAT AND NEEDED THE SPARE TIRE. WELL, I HAD TO CLIMB THROUGH THE DOORS INTO THE BACK WHERE MY SPARE WAS, ONLY TO REALIZE YOU COULDN'T GET TO THE SPARE BECAUSE THE REAR DOOR WAS IN THE WAY. SO I HAD TO RIP THE BACK FLAP TO GET TO THE TIRE. SO THAT WILL COST ME MONEY TO FIX. THIS IS IN ADDITION TO THE DEALER TELLING ME EACH ACTUATOR WILL COST OVER $300 TO GET REPLACED. AFTER RESEARCHING TRYING TO FIND THIS ACTUATOR PART, I CAME ACROSS THE LAWSUIT AND MANY MANY OTHERS WITH THIS PROBLEM. SOUNDS LIKE HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AND PAY FOR FIXING THEIR PROBLEM!!! *TR

FELLOW HONDA OWNERS: JUST STARTED EXPERIENCING DOORLOCK FAILURES. (61,000 MILES). MY NOTICED REAR DOOR LOCK (BEHIND PASSENGER)NOT LOCKING AFTER KEY FOB IS CLICKED. ALSO NOTICED AS CAR ACCELERATED FROM 5-10MPH THE ALL DOOR LOCKS WOULD ATTEMPT TO LOCK. DRIVING US CRAZY AS WELL AS POSING A SAFETY ISSUE. CAN'T LEAVE VALUABLES IN THE CAR FOR FEAR OF IT GETTING STOLEN. READ THAT IT'S THE ACTUATOR. P/N 72155-S5A-A01. ALSO HONDA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I GUESS ONCE IT REACHES A MAJOR THRESHOLD (1000 COMPLAINTS)- THEN THEY'LL ACT. OTHERWISE IT'S THE OWNERS RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR. ALL ACTUATORS SHOULD BE REPLACED BECAUSE THEY EVENTUALLY WILL FAIL. DEALERS WILL GLADLY PERFORM THE REPLACEMENT OF ACTUATORS. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO HONDA RELIABILITY ? I GUESS THEY DON'T BUILD THEM LIKE THEY USE TO. THIS VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN JAPAN, HOWEVER THE ACTUATOR PART WAS PROBABLY MANUFACTURED ELSEWHERE. REALLY DISAPPOINTING HONDA..........ON MY MODEL 2008 THERE IS ALSO A PENDING SWITCH TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. I WONDER WHEN HONDA ISSUES A RECALL FOR THAT? *TR

THANKFULLY AFTER CALLING 911 THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR UNLOCKED MY GETTING THE WINDOW TO ROLL DOWN. THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS APPROX 86 DEGREES AND WHO KNOWS HOW HOT IN THE CAR.FORTUNATELY, THEY CAME WITH IN 30 MIN OF THIS HAPPENING. THE DOG WAS SCARED AFTER THIS INCIDENT AND RELUCTANT TO BE IN THE CAR. THE CAR NORMALLY AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS ONCE THE CAR IS IN REVERSE.

IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR (2013), THE 2008 HONDA CRV-EX THAT I PURCHASE CERTIFIED, PRE-OWNED IN OCTOBER 2012, BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LOCKS. AS I WAS DRIVING, THE LOCKS WOULD AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK AND LOCK THEMSELVES EVERY TIME I CAME TO A STOP AND STARTED DRIVING AGAIN. THE PROBLEM STOPPED AFTER A FEW DAYS, THEN A FEW WEEKS LATER, STARTED OCCURRING AGAIN. BEFORE I CALLED TO HAVE IT CHECKED, IT STOPPED, BUT THEN I WOULD HEAR A SQUEALING SOUND IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE DOORS WERE LOCKED UPON ACCELERATION. ALL OF THESE ISSUES STOPPED, BUT THEN ABOUT A WEEK AGO (JULY 2013), BOTH DOORS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTED RELOCKING THEMSELVES WITHIN 3 SECONDS OF BEING UNLOCKED BY EITHER THE KEY FOB OR FROM THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THEY CANNOT BE LOCKED OR UNLOCKED MANUALLY, EVEN WITH AUTO LOCK OFF. THEY ALSO CANNOT BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE BY THE PASSENGER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY CHILD, WHO WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OPEN HIS DOOR AND EXIT IMMEDIATELY IN THE CASE OF AN EMERGENCY. IN ADDITION TO THIS PROBLEM, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) LIGHT IS ON PERMANENTLY ON MY DASHBOARD. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER TECHNICIAN I SPOKE WITH, THIS MEANS THE TPMS HAS STOPPED COMMUNICATING WITH THE SENSORS ON AT LEAST ONE OF MY TIRES. THIS IS A HAZARD IN THAT I COULD HAVE DANGEROUSLY LOW TIRE PRESSURE AND WOULD NOT KNOW IT, WHICH COULD LEAD TO A BLOW OUT AT HIGH FREEWAY SPEEDS. THIS SAME TECHNICIAN REPORTED HE HAS SEEN "QUITE A FEW" 2007 AND 2008 CRVS COMING IN WITH THIS ISSUE. I CAN WORK AROUND THIS ISSUE BY FREQUENTLY CHECKING TIRE PRESSURE MYSELF, BUT IT REMAINS THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS, WHEN I PAID FOR A VEHICLE THAT SHOULD BE DOING IT FOR ME. *TR

ON MARCH 21, 2012, I TOOK MY2008 HONDA CRV FOR SERVICE .MY POWER DOOR LOCKS WERE MALFUNCTIONING.. THEY WOULD CONSTANTLY LOCK AND UN LOCK AS I WAS DRIVING. THEY WOULD BE CLICKING LOCK AND UNLOCK , DEALER CLAIMED I NEEDED AN ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY AT THE COST OF APP. $250. I NATURALLY HAD IT REPAIRED AS IT WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN, SINCE MY SMALL GRANDSONS ARE IN THE BACK. ON JULY 10, 2013 I RETURNED WITH THE IDENTICAL DOOR LOCK PROBLEM. SINCE I HAD DRIVEN MORE THAN 12,000 MILES SINCE THE LAST REPAIR , THIS WAS REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER EXPRESSING MY DISSATISFACTION, THE DEALER SUPPOSEDLY CALLED HONDA DIRECTLY AND HONDA AGREED TO PAY HALF OF REPAIR COSTS. MY COST -$87.00. SINCE IT WAS A MAJOR SAFETYCONCERN FOR ME, I AGREED. GUESS WHAT? TWO DAYS LATER THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR LOCKS RE OCCURRED. THEY ARE CONSTANTLY CLICKING OPEN AND CLOSED.WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME IT'S PROBABLY AN UNDERLYING ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. I AM RELUCTANT TO SPEND ANYMORE ON THIS APPARENTLY UNFIXABLE ISSUE, BUT IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUNG CHILDREN AND INFANTS ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO BE IN THE BACKSEAT. JUDGING BY THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE NHTSA PRESSURE HONDA MOTORS TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. *TR

ADDITIONALLY RIGHT REAR DOOR CANT EVER BE LOCKED LEAVING ALL VALUABLE UNPROTECTED AT ALL TIMES. WHEN PRESSING LOCK BUTTON ON THE REMOTE ALL DOORS LOCK EXCEPT THE RIGHT REAR WHICH LOCKS AND QUICKLY UNLOCKS BY ITSELF. THIS IS REALLY ANNOYING AND UNACCEPTABLE SINCE CANT BE SURE ANYMORE IF CAR IS LOCKED OR NOT WITHOUT CHECKING ALL THE DOORS. THIS SIMPLY LEAVES MY HONDA OPEN TO ANYBODY.

DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM FAILURE. FIRST REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK WENT OUT-WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH ALARM KEY, NOR WITH THE INNER LOCK BUTTON SYSTEM. MUST BE MANUALLY UNLOCKED AND LOCKED. THIS CAUSED THE REAR HATCH TO NOT OPEN. WILL ONLY OPEN ONCE I HAVE MANUALLY UNLOCKED REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. NOW, THE PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT STAY LOCKED--WHETHER I LOCK IT WITH THE KEY, BUTTON, OR MANUALLY. IT SLOW OPENS BACK TO THE UNLOCKED POSITION RIGHT AFTER I LOCK IT.

IN AUGUST OF 2012, THE RIGHT REAR DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT STAY LOCKED. WE HAD THE FAULTY PART REPLACED. NOW IN JUNE OF 2013, WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE RIGHT FRONT DOOR LOCK.

IN MAY OF 2013 MY BACK PASSENGER DOOR ON MY 08 CR-V WOULD NOT STAY LOCKED IN SPITE OF ALL EFFORTS. I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE IT UNTIL ONE DAY WHEN I LOCKED MY CAR THEN HAPPENED TO SEE THAT THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR WAS STILL UNLOCKED. THE CAR ALARM "ARMED" ITSELF AS NORMAL BUT I WAS STILL ABLE TO GET IN THE BACK DOOR WITHOUT THE ALARM GOING OFF. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY REPLACED THE ACTUATOR FOR $200 IN THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR. NOW, NOT EVEN ONE MONTH LATER, MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS LOCKING BY ITSELF WHEN I'M TRYING TO GET INTO THE CAR MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET IN. I HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON AND HOPE THAT IT WILL STAY UNLOCKED LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO GET IN. MY MECHANIC SAID THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO TEST ALL OF THE ACTUATORS, THAT IF ONE GOES OUT THAT USUALLY MEANS THE OTHER THREE AREN'T FAR BEHIND, AND APPARENTLY HE IS RIGHT. I LIVE IN A STATE THAT HAS VERY HOT SUMMERS, AND IT WOULD BE TERRIBLE IF ONE OF MY PETS ACCIDENTALLY GOT LOCKED IN MY CAR IN THE SUMMER HEAT. IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE HONDA IS BIGGER THAN THIS AND SHOULD BE RECALLING ALL DOOR ACTUATORS IN THIS MAKE AND MODEL. ITS A SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR A CORPORATION LIKE HONDA, AND IF THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE THE ERROR ON THEIR PART, I'M GOING TO TAKE THE $25-30K THAT I WOULD NORMALLY USE TO BUY A NEW HONDA AND USE IT TO BUY A GMC OR HYUNDAI. I'M ABOUT TO DROP ANOTHER $200 TO GET THIS ACTUATOR REPLACED MAKING IT $400, NOT COUNTING THE ALMOST $1800 I'VE HAD TO SPEND REPLACING THE AIR CONDITIONER (CLUTCH, COIL, COMPRESSOR) OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS. OH, AND HONDA SAID THE A/C PARTS I HAD REPLACED ON MY CAR WEREN'T COVERED BY THE LETTER THEY SENT OUT REGARDING THE A/C PROBLEMS IN CR-VS LAST NOVEMBER, EVEN THOUGH I SENT IN ALL THE SUPPORTING PAPERWORK.

THE DRIVER DOOR HAS STARTED LOCKING ON OWN. I STOPPED TO GET GAS ON A SATURDAY EVENING AND I GOT OUT TO PAY AT THE PUMP, ONLY TO FIND MY CAR HAD LOCKED ITSELF. MY PURSE AND CELL PHONE WAS INSIDE.

SO, NOT ONLY DO I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR IN THE CAR, I HAVE TO REPLACE THE WINDOW ON MY BACK DOOR BECAUSE I HAD TO ASK A NEIGHBOR TO BREAK IN MY HOUSE TO GET THE SPARE KEY, THEN DRIVE 120 MILES ROUND TRIP TO BRING IT TO ME. EVEN WITH THE SPARE KEY, IT WAS A STRUGGLE TO GET THE DOOR TO OPEN BECAUSE IT WOULD EITHER NOT UNLOCK OR IMMEDIATELY RE-LOCK.

THIS PROBLEM CONCERNS THE AUTOMATIC CHILD SAFETY DOOR LOCK FUNCTION. APPROXIMATELY THREE MONTHS AGO, THE DOOR LOCKS BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION AND CONTINUOUSLY LOCK AND UNLOCK THEMSELVES WHENEVER THE CAR REACHED 9 OR 10 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN THE CAR REACHES THIS SPEED WHILE EITHER ACCELERATING OR SLOWING DOWN, THE LOCKS EITHER LOCK THEMSELVES OR UNLOCK THEMSELVES DEPENDING ON THEIR PREVIOUS POSITION. I DRIVE IN LOS ANGELES TRAFFIC, SO THIS IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX IT AT $200+ PER DOOR. THESE AUTOMATIC LOCKS (PARTICULARLY THE REAR SEAT ONES) ARE SUPPOSED TO FUNCTION TO PREVENT A CHILD OR OTHER PASSENGER FROM ACCIDENTALLY OPENING A DOOR WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THEY ARE ALSO SUPPOSED TO FUNCTION TO KEEP AN INTRUDER FROM BEING ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM OUTSIDE THE CAR WHILE THE CAR IS TEMPORARILY STOPPED. THIS IS A TERRIBLE SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL CHILDREN RIDING IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE CAR, BUT IT COULD ALSO BE DANGEROUS FOR ADULTS WHO MIGHT GRAB THE HANDLE TO STABILIZE THEMSELVES AROUND TURNS. IF THEY WERE TO ACCIDENTALLY HANG ON TO THE DOOR HANDLE, IT COULD OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT IS APPARENTLY A RECURRING PROBLEM ON THE 2006, 2007 AND 2008 MODELS OF THE CR-V ACCORDING TO THE HONDA FORUM ON EDMUNDS.COM. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ISSUED BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES CONCERNED WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM CURRENTLY AFRAID TO LET MY GRANDCHILDREN RIDE IN MY CAR. *TR

ON MARCH 13TH MY SON AND I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE OUR HOME TO RUN AN ERRAND AND HE COULD NOT OPEN THE BACK DOOR. I USE THE UNLOCK FEATURE ON MY KEYS AND IT STILL WOULD NOT UNLOCK. I THOUGHT THE CHILD LOCK HAD BEEN SET. FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS I TRIED TO GET THE DOOR UNLOCK AND I COULD NOT AND I NOTICE THAT MY TRUCK WOULD NOT OPEN EITHER. I WAS HEADED OUT OF TOWN, SO I WENT BY THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THE WANT TO CHARGE ME $120 JUST RUN A CHECK TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I CALLED AROUND AND ANOTHER COMPANY SAID THEY WOULD RUN A CHECK FOR $50. BEFORE THEY COULD DO ANYTHING THEY TRIED TO UNLOCK IT AND STATED THAT I MAY NEED TO GO TO A BODY SHOP AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO REMOVE THE PANELS. BY THIS TIME I WAS FRUSTRATED AND THE MONEY WAS ADDING UP FOR REPAIRS. I DECIDE TO TAKE THE CAR TO GET IT CLEAN AND ONE OF THE EMPLOYEE WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR UNLOCK JUST BY WORKING WITH THE LOCKS. I GAVE HIM A NICE TIP FOR SAVING ME A LOT OF MONEY. THIS MORNING I AM DRIVING ON THE EXPRESS WAY HEADING IN TO WORK AND I STARTED HEARING A NOISE. I WAS DRIVING BESIDE A LARGE TRUCK AND I THOUGHT THE TRUCK WAS PITCHING ROCK OR GRAVEL. I LOOKED OVER MY SHOULDER AND NOTICE MY BACK LOCKS WERE UNLOCK. I TRIED TO LOCK THEM FROM THE FRONT AND THEY WAS THE NOISE I WAS HEARING..LOCKING AND UNLOCKING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE EXPRESS WAY AND THEY SAID IT MY CAR WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LISTED AND I WILL HAVE TO BRING THE CAR IN TO BE CHECKED OUT. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR UNLOCKS IMMEDIATELY AFTER LOCKING IT, WITH REMOTE OR BY THE DOOR ITSELF. THIS IS A HAZARD BECAUSE ANYONE CAN ENTER VEHICLE WHEN STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN OR WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED. *TR

THE FIRST PROBLEM UNCOVERED: THE DRIVER'S DOOR CANNOT BE MANUALLY UNLOCKED WITH A KEY. MY DAUGHTER DROVE THE CAR TO A CONCERT USING THE VALET KEY AND DISCOVERED AT MIDNIGHT THAT SHE COULDN'T ENTER THE CAR. AFTER FAMILY ARRIVED WITH ELECTRONIC KEY IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IT WOULD NOT MANUALLY OPEN THE DOOR EITHER. FOLLOWING THAT INCIDENT WE NOTICED THE DRIVER'S DOOR WILL RANDOMLY RE-LOCK ITSELF AFTER THE IGNITION IS TURNED OFF AND THE DOOR HAS INITIALLY UNLOCKED. THE LOCKING SYSTEM SOMETIMES MAKES A "WHIRRING" WHEN ENGAGED. THE LATEST DEVELOPMENT: THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR AND THE HATCH REFUSED TO UNLOCK USING EITHER THE ELECTRONIC KEY OR THE DRIVER DOOR CONTROLS. ALSO, THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR COULDN'T BE OPENED MANUALLY USING THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR ITSELF- IT WOULDN'T BUDGE! THE NEXT DAY, THE PROBLEM FIXED ITSELF... AT LEAST FOR NOW. *TR

RIGHT REAR DOOR AND HATCH WOULD NOT UNLOCK EITHER MANUALLY OR THROUGH THE POWER LOCKING SYSTEM. DEALER DETERMINED THAT THIS WAS THE RESULT OF FAULTY ACTUATORS AND FORCED ME TO PAY OVER $600 TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN ERROR AS THERE ARE OTHER REPORTED CASES OF THIS HAPPENING. IT WAS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE AS PASSENGERS COULD HAVE BEEN TRAPPED IN THE CAR. *TR

MY RIGHT BACK DOOR DOESN'T LOCK ANYMORE. WHEN I LOCK IT SLOWLY UNLOCKS ITSELF ON ITS OWN. SO A WHILE IT WOULD REMAIN LOCKED IF I LOCKED BY KEY FOGGER BUT NOW IT DOESN'T LOCK AT ALL. IT APPEARS TO LOCK BUT EVENTUALLY UNLOCKS ITSELF. IT WOULD APPEAR TO LOCK BUT WHILE DRIVING UNLOCKS ITSELF. VERY DANGEROUS FOR SMALL KIDS IN BACK. I TOOK TO HONDA AND IT IS $400 TO GET FIXED. PLUS THEY HAVE TO ORDER PARTS SO I HAVE TO PAY FOR A RENTAL UNTIL PARTS COME IN. IF I COULD MANUALLY LOCK DOOR THAT IS DIFFERENT ISSUE BUT IT UNLOCKS ITSELF EVEN MANUALLY. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS TO BE FIXED AS IT IS MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

LEFT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK WHEN LOCK OR UNLOCKED MAKES A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. FRONT DRIVERS DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH MANUAL KEY. I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS OF SAME ON THIS WEBSITE.

THE DOOR ACTUATOR WENT OUT FIRST ON MY PASSENGER FRONT DOOR AND AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS NOW EVERY TIME I STOP THE ACTUATORS CYCLES ON ALL 4 DOORS AND TRIES TO RELOCK. THIS IS VERY ANNOYING AND ALSO I LIKE TO ADD PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE BLACK CHROME RIMS MINE ARE PEELING SOLID CHROME IS NOT SUPPOSED TO PEEL SO THAT WAS $3000 WASTED. *TR

MY LEFT BACK DOOR DOESN'T LOCK ANYMORE. WHEN I LOCK IT SLOWLY UNLOCKS ITSELF ON ITS OWN. SO A WHILE IT WOULD REMAIN LOCKED IF I LOCKED BY KEY FOGGER BUT NOW IT DOESN'T LOCK AT ALL. IT APPEARS TO LOCK BUT EVENTUALLY UNLOCKS ITSELF. I HAVE 2 SMALL KIDS SITTING IN BACKSEAT. I HAVE SET MY CAR TO LOCK ONCE I DRIVE 15MPH. IT WOULD APPEAR TO LOCK BUT WHILE DRIVING UNLOCKS ITSELF. I HAVE HAD NO WRECKS IN THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A FAMILY VEHICLE AND THE DOOR EVENTUALLY UNLOCKS ITSELF WHILE DRIVING. VERY DANGEROUS FOR SMALL KIDS IN BACK. MY SON REALIZED HIS DOOR WASN'T LOCKED AND TRIED TO MANUALLY LOCK IT WHICH EVENTUALLY IT UNLOCKED ITSELF AGAIN. I TOOK TO HONDA AND IT IS $400 TO GET FIXED. PLUS THEY HAVE TO ORDER PARTS SO I HAVE TO PAY FOR A RENTAL UNTIL PARTS COME IN. IF I COULD MANUALLY LOCK DOOR THAT IS DIFFERENT ISSUE BUT IT UNLOCKS ITSELF EVEN MANUALLY. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS TO BE FIXED FOR A SMALL CHILD GETS HURT! *TR

THE DOOR LOCKS KEEP LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WHILE I DRIVE. I GOT LOCKED INTO THE CAR ONCE, THE CAR DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN WITH KEY OR MANUALLY. I HAD TO CRAWL INTO BACK SEAT IN ORDER TO OPEN DOOR AND GET OUT. THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED WHILE I DRIVE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. WHEN I'M STOPPED AT A SIGNAL ANYONE COULD JUMP INTO THE CAR. THE DOOR WON'T ALWAYS LOCK WHEN I GET OUT OF THE CAR. SOMEONE GOT INTO THE CAR AND WENT THROUGH MY GLOVE BOX BECAUSE THE CAR WOULDN'T LOCK. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD HAVE A RECALL AND FIX THE DOOR LOCKS. I HAVE SEEN QUITE A FEW COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET WITH OTHERS WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE POWER LOCKS ON THE DOORS KEEP UNLOCKING THEMSELVES WHILE DRIVING . IT HAS POTENTIALLY UNLOCKED WHILE DRIVING EVEN THOUGH THE LOCK HAS BEEN PLACED. MANUALLY UNLOCKING OR LOCKING DOORS IS NOT AN OPTION AS THE LOCK SEEMS TO UNLOCK BY ITSELF. VERY DANGEROUS TO USE WITH CHILDREN EVEN IF THE SAFETY LOCK IS PLACED THE DOORS CONTINUE TO UNLOCK BY THEMSELVES. *TR

SUDDENLY ALL THE DOORS WOULD LOCK AS SOON AS I WOULD GET IN I WOULD TRY TO UNLOCK WITH DOOR SWITCH AND THE LOCK BACK RIGHT AWAY. THEY HAVE LOCKED ME OUT OF MY OWN CAR. I HAVE TRIED THE RESETTING PROCEDURES FROM MANUAL AND THEY DO NOT CHANGE. TO GET INTO MY CAR YOU HAVE TO PULL HANDLE AS SOON AS YOU HIT UNLOCK ON KEY. *TR

MY DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR IS BROKEN ON THE DRIVER DOOR. THIS IS A DEFINITE SECURITY PROBLEM. WHEN I WENT TO LOCK MY CAR, THE LOCK ON THE DRIVER DOOR KEPT UNLOCKING. THERE WERE POPPING NOISES WHEN I TRIED TO UNLOCK & LOCK MY DOOR. ALL OTHER DOORS WORKED, BUT I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR UNLOCKED OVER NIGHT BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT STAY LOCKED. WHEN I GOT TO WORK THE NEXT DAY, IT LOCKED AFTER A FEW TRIES BUT MADE A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. *TR

THE CAR KEPT SAYING A DOOR WAS OPENED WHEN IT WASN'T AND THEN BECAUSE OF THAT THE CAR WOULDN'T LOCK WHEN I WAS IN IT AND THEN THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULDN'T GO OFF. THEN, IT JUST STOPPED HAPPENING. THEN ON 1/14, EVERY TIME I USED THE BRAKE WHEN I WAS DRIVING, THE DOORS WOULD UNLOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD GO ON. AND THEN WHEN I WOULD ACCELERATE THE DOORS WOULD LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF. THIS ALL BEGAN THE WEEK AFTER I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET NEW TIRES (WHERE THEY RIPPED ME OFF BY CHARGING ME $1,300 TO REPLACE 4 TIRES!). VERY FRUSTRATING. *TR

AS SOON AS YOU WOULD UNLOCK THE AUTOMATIC DOORS LOCKS - THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR, IT WOULD QUICKLY LOCK BACK UP, YOU HAD TO FORCE IT TO UNLOCK ONCE IT LOCKED ON ITS OWN, YOU CAN USE THE CLICKER OR THE UNLOCK BUTTON, BUT YOU HAD TO BE VERY QUICK TO BE ABLE TO UNLOCK IT - YOU HAD TO HAVE YOUR ONE HAND ON THE DOOR HANDLE AND THE OTHER HAND ON THE UNLOCK BUTTON - OR ELSE YOU CAN'T GET OUT THAT DOOR. ONCE YOU GET TO SPEEDS OF 5 MPH THE DOORS WILL AUTOMATICALLY LOCK, THE BACK DRIVER DOOR STARTED TO SLOWLY UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING, WHILE THE CAR WAS STOPPED, IT WOULD LOCK ONCE YOU GOT TO THE 5 MPH BUT THEN START UNLOCKING AGAIN. I REPLACED THE ACTUATORS FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOORS AND NOW THE PASSENGER BACK DOOR LOCK STARTED MAKING NOISES AND IS STARTING TO UNLOCK ON ITS OWN. CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID IT MUST HAPPEN OFTEN BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE PARTS FOR IT. I ASKED IF THERE WAS A RECALL AND THEY SAID NO, SO I HAD TO PURCHASE THE PARTS. *TR

THE LOCKS ON THE HONDA CR-V 2008 ARE DEFECTIVE AND CAN POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE LOCKS ON THE DOOR LOCK AT WILL, WON'T UNLOCK WHEN I TRY TO UNLOCK THEM, AND LOCK WHILE I'M DRIVING AND/OR PUTTING THE REVERSE. PASSENGERS CANNOT GET OUT OF THE CAR, EVEN AFTER I PRESS THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON BOTH THE DOOR AND THE KEY. I FEAR THAT MY TODDLER IS GOING TO GET LOCKED INTO THE VEHICLE AND/OR TRAPPED IN IF WE ARE IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT STARTED JUST A FEW MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND MANY OTHER HONDA CR-V OWNERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE, YET HONDA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THESE DEFECTIVE LOCKS. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AS A SAFETY ISSUE AND URGE THEM TO RECALL THESE LOCKS. *TR

LOCKING ACTUATOR DOES NOT ENGAGED. WHEN TRYING TO LOCK THE DOOR MANUALLY THE ACTUATOR WILL AUTOMATIC UNLOCK THE DOORS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. AFTER SOME RESEARCH THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH HONDA, AND HONDA WILL NOT SEE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

EVERY TIME THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER DOOR IS UNLOCKED EITHER BY THE SWITCH OR MANUALLY, IT IMMEDIATELY RE-LOCKS ITSELF MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. TO OPEN THE DOOR, YOU MUST KNOW TO BE HOLDING ON THE HANDLE AND PULL IT IN THE SPLIT SECOND AFTER YOU ACTIVATE THE UN-LOCK BUTTON. THIS COULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN A SITUATION WHERE THE PASSENGER HAD TO GET OUT OF THE CAR IMMEDIATELY AS IN CASE OF A FIRE, SUBMERGING IN WATER OR AFTER A WRECK. I AM FRIGHTENED TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN ONE OF THESE CASES AND A CHILD OR UNSUSPECTING ADULT WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND COULD NOT GET OUT. OF COURSE, THERE ARE MANY OTHER SCENARIOS WHERE THE PASSENGER WOULD HAVE TO GET OUT IN A HURRY AND THIS DEFECTIVE LOCKING MECHANISM WOULD PREVENT THEIR ESCAPE. *TR
