October 29, 2026Electrical System

When using either Android Auto or Apple CarPlay to connect to the car's infotainment system to view maps and navigation instructions, the system periodically goes dark for a variable length of time. While it will often restart on its own, on occasion the driver must interact with the system to relaunch the navigation screen. During the outage, the loss of navigation instructions is a safety hazard as it forces the driver to turn their attention away from the road. The car dealer has acknowledged this is a known issue and they are awaiting a fix from the manufacturer. When I first reported the issue in June 2026 soon after purchasing the car I was told they expected a solution from Honda by S

The infotainment system keeps rebooting while driving. This causes AppleMaps to disappear and leave the monitor blank. This causes safety issues for drivers who depend on the system for directions and guidance. Siri also disconnects and is unable to communicate properly. The backup camera also has a 3-7 sec delay in displaying the surroundings.

I am reporting a potential windshield safety defect involving my 2026 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD, leased new on June 30, 2026. Within approximately four months, I experienced two separate windshield cracks, both developing near the edges of the glass. The original factory-installed windshield developed a crack near its edge and was replaced by Safelite through Progressive Insurance in September 2026. Approximately six weeks later, the aftermarket replacement windshield also developed a crack near its edge. I did not observe any rocks or other objects striking the windshield immediately before either incident. However, Safelite subsequently identified a small impact point on the replacement windshie

I was pulling in (slowly, forward, to the right) into a parking space when my 2026 CRV Sport Hybrid seemed to accelerate and jolt forward. I was not accelerating. My foot was on the brake pedal, coming to a slow stop. I had to slam on the break to avoid hitting another parked vehicle. This incident left me extremely frightened and very concerned about the safety of the vehicle. Prior to this, there were no warning lamps, messages, or anything to make me think that something might be wrong with my car. We will be taking it into the dealership for a full electronic diagnostic scan. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle until this is addressed and corrected. (Another issue we had with this veh
