2006 Honda CR-V Electrical System

About 4 months ago I discovered that the electric operator on the front passenger window no longer worked. I recently had a mechanic try to repair it and he found that the motor worked well. He replaced the switches in both the passenger door and the driver's door but window only goes down and not up. The mechanic checked online and discovered that this vehicle model was recalled in December, 2020, for this problem. When I checked on getting my vehicle repaired through the recall, I discovered that my specific vehicle was not included in the recall. Because I am now aware of the risk of fire, I request that my vehicle be included in the recall so I can have it repaired. Thanks for your consideration of this request.

Driver side power window will not open. Dangerous because if I am pulled over I can not roll down my window to speak with police. I’ve also seen reports of electrical fires associated with this issue. The issue has not been inspected by 3rd parties.

MY HONDA CRV 2006 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW SWITCH DOES NOT OPERATE AND I DO NOT SEE MY VIN NUMBER ON THE RECALL LIST. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE SAME PROBLEM SAME RECALL AND NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND MAY CAUSE A FIRE. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

DRIVER'S SIDE MASTER SWITCH FOR POWER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING. I BELIEVE IT IS DUE TO WATER DAMAGE/LEAKAGE THROUGH THE WINDOW INTO THE DOOR PANEL DUE TO FOGGING AT THE WINDOW CORNER WHEN VEHICLE GETS WET. THERE WAS A SIMILAR RECALL FOR THIS THAT WAS FIXED IN 2011 WITH A PREVIOUS OWNER BUT SEEMS TO BE RECURRING ISSUE AND IN LINE WITH CURRENT RECALL P9D. WHEN I SEARCH MY VEHICLE NO ACTIVE RECALLS POP UP BUT I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE SHOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS RECALL. THIS ISSUE IS OCCURRING WHILE STOPPED AND WHILE DRIVING.

RE: NHTSA RECALL NUMBER20V-768. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT IN ADVANCE WITH A LOCAL HONDA CAR DEALER TO TAKE CARE OF THIS RECALL ON MARCH 2ND 2021. I SHOWED UP TO THE APPT. AND THE CAR DEALER DID NOT HAVE THE SPARE PARTS AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL WORK. I THEN DEMANDED AN EXPLANATION TO THE HONDA SERVICE MANAGER AS TO WHY I WAS LET TO COME BY IF THEY WERE NOT READY TO TAKE CARE OF ME, THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHY I WAS COMING. I LIVE 1 HOUR AND 15 MIN AWAY FROM THE NEAREST DEALER SHOP. THE HONDA MANAGER, AFTER NOTICING I WAS NOT BUYING THEIR LAME EXCUSES, HE VERY RUDELY AND ABRUPTLY ASKED TO LEAVE THE PROPERTY. THIS PATHETIC EPISODE HAPPENED IN THE HONDA OF ARECIBO CAR DEALER, IN PUERTO RICO ON MARCH 2ND 2021. THE SAME DAY 3/2/2021 IN THE PM, I CALLED HONDA HOTLINE FOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS TO REPORT THIS ISSUE WITH THE CAR DEALER, THE DISRESPECTFUL MANNER THE DEALER MANAGER TREATED ME, AND ALSO TO SEEK HELP IN MAKING A NEW APPOINTMENT TO TAKE CARE OF THE RECALL AT A DIFFERENT CAR DEALER IN PUERTO RICO. A VERY POLITE HONDA REPRESENTATIVE ASSURED ME SOMEONE WILL BE CONTACTING ME IN THE FOLLOWING FEW DAYS TO RESCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND TO ENSURE THE CAR DEALER WOULD HAVE THE SPARE PARTS READY TO COMPLETE THE RECALL WORK. TODAY IS MAY 6TH 2021, AND I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM EITHER HONDA OR ANY LOCAL CAR DEALER. CLEARLY HONDA HAS NOT TAKEN THIS SERIOUSLY AND HAS ATTEMPT NOTHING TO WORK ON MY RECALL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO OR WHO ELSE TO CALL. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP MAKING HONDA COMPLETE THIS RECALL WORK IN AN EFFICIENT AND RESPECTFUL MANNER? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW ON MY 2006 HONDA CRV WILL NOT OPEN DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR SHORT. THE WINDOW MECHANISIM IS FROZEN AND DOES NOT WORK. THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD, AND I AM CONCERNED. I NOTICED THAT HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE AND FOR THE MODEL YEAR OF MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER, FOR SOME REASON, MY HONDA CRV IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. THIS MAKES NO SENSE SINCE I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT ISSUE WITH MY CRV THAT THE RECALL NOTICE INDICATED. I SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS RECALL/REPAIR, AND I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION.

UPON STATIONARY IGNITION, DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR STARTED SMOKING AND CAUGHT FIRE, MELTING THE WIRING HARNESS, AND INTERIOR WINDOW MASTER SWITCH (AND COVER) AND THE WINDOW MOTOR. I PUSHED THE CAR AWAY FROM THE HOUSE. WE REMOVED THE DOOR PANEL AND HEARD A LOUD BAND AND FLAMES STARTED POURING OUT OF THE DOOR. I TOOK IT TO MARTIN HONDA DEALER TO BE REPAIRED. THE CHARGED ME 1800. TO REPLACE THE MELTED COMPONENTS, ALTHOUGH THEY DID NOT REPLACE THE MIRROR SWITCH, WHICH FAILED AS A RESULT OF THE FIRE. I FOUND A RECALL NUMBER 12V-486 DATED 10/4/2012. POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH, WHICH DESCRIBES EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY OPENED A CASE AS I AM LOOKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT T AND ALSO TO HAVE THE ADDITIONAL REPAIR PERFORMED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED ON THIS CAR. AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN???? NOW, I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT!

10-YEAR-OLD HONDA CR-V WITH ONLY 60K MILES EXPERIENCED FAILURE OF TWO KEY SENSORS IN JUNE 2016: 1) THE VSA/ABS CONTROL MODULE, AND 2) THE AIR/FUEL RATIO SENSOR. THE FAILURE OF #1 CAUSED THE ABS AND TCS LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TO TURN ON; AND THE LOSS OF #2 CAUSED THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT TO TURN ON. TOTAL COST TO REPLACE BOTH VIA NON-DEALER MECHANIC WAS $2,425, WHICH OWNER PAID. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE FOR THIS MAKE/MODEL, SO FILING COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA FOR THE PUBLIC RECORD.

DRIVER SIDE WINDOW SWITCH INTERMITTENTLY WORKED (CONVENIENTLY WORKING WHEN TAKEN INTO DEALERSHIP) DURING 2-5 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. NOW IT HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING, AND WINDOW IS STUCK UP.

WE HAVE A 2006 HONDA CR-V AND TONIGHT MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND OUT OF NOWHERE THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH STARTED TO SMOKE AND WAS ON FIRE!! *TR

WE PURCHASED A HONDA CR-V IN 2006. WE HAVE HAD 12 CASES OF THE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHT FAILURES. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT AND WE ARE THANKFUL BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE NOT FAILED AT THE SAME TIME SO FAR. OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP KNOWS THIS SITUATION HAVING REPLACED THE BULBS AND COMPLETE HARNESSES. NOTHING HAS STOPPED THE ONGOING PROBLEM. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL WITH A GOOD SOLUTION NOT JUST REPLACING THE BULBS. *TR

ON MONDAY, JANUARY 25, 2010, MY 2006 HONDA CRV WAS PARKED IN A LOT, TURNED OFF, FOR AT LEAST 10 MIN. WHILE I SAT IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT MAKING FOLLOW-UP SALES CALLS. A WHITE CLOUD OF SMOKE BEGAN TO RISE FROM THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH SPECIFICALLY COMING FROM THE REAR LEFT BUTTON. IT SMELLED LIKE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. WITHIN 5 SECONDS, FLAMES STARTED COMING OUT OF THE BUTTON. AFRAID, I GRABBED MY BOTTLE OF WATER, POURING HALF OF IT ON THE FLAMES. THE FLAMES ACTUALLY STOPPED, THE SMOKE CONTINUED. I POURED THE REST OF THE BOTTLE ON IT AND FINALLY THE SMOKE SUBSIDED. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND LATE. I WENT HOME AND TOLD MY HUSBAND WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE SUGGESTED I STOP AT OUR NEARBY SERVICE STATION AND ASK WHAT THEY THOUGHT. THE NEXT DAY I DID JUST THAT. TUESDAY, JANUARY 26 I PULLED INTO THAT SAME STATION, WHERE I HAVE MOST OF MY VEHICLE SERVICE WORK DONE. THEY REMOVED THE WHOLE CONTROL PANEL TO FIND IT HAD ACTUALLY MELTED AND BURN MARKS REMAINED ON THE FABRIC COVERING THE DOOR. I THEN HEADED FOR THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE CAR. WITH THE CONTROL PANEL IN HAND, I SHOWED AND EXPLAINED TO THEM THE OBVIOUS PROBLEM. I WAS THEN TOLD THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS AND IT WOULD ONLY TAKE A DAY OR TWO FOR THEM TO REPLACE THE SWITCH, WHICH COST ME $187.00. THEY GAVE ME A FREE LOANER CAR AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THURSDAY JANUARY 28, I PICKED UP MY CAR, PAID THE BILL AND LEFT. AS I WAS DRIVING ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, LISTENING TO 1210 RADIO, WHERE THEY SPOKE OF THE HONDA RECALL OF THE FIT FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM! I HAD ALREADY CALLED THE HONDA NATIONAL NUMBER, SPOKE WITH A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. AND THEN HAD A CLAIM AGENT RETURN MY CALL. THESE CALLS OCCURRED ON TUESDAY, PRIOR TO MY ARRIVING AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. HIS RESPONSE WAS THE SAME AS THE HONDA DEALER ONLY MORE RUDE AND DEFENSIVE. SOMEONE HAD THE FIRST FIT WHICH HAD A WINDOW SWITCH FIRE! PERHAPS I HAD THE FIRST HONDA C-RV WHICH HAD A WINDOW SWITCH FIRE! *TW

ON MARCH 16, 2010, THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROLS (LOCATED ON DRIVERS DOOR), BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS. I COULD NO LONGER CLOSE THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW FROM THIS CONTROL. I WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW AND WAS ABLE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE THREE REMAINING POWER WINDOWS. THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DID WORK (TO OPEN AND CLOSE THAT WINDOW). ON MARCH 23, 2010, I TURNED ON THE IGNITION FOR MY CRV AS I GOT READY TO GO TO WORK. I NOTICED AN INTENSE BURNING SMELL (OF PLASTIC) AND WAS ABLE TO TRACE IT TO THE DRIVER'S DOOR WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES. I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE AND TRIED TO EXAMINE THE DOOR FURTHER. SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE OPENINGS (LIKE THE SPEAKER COVER) OF THE DOOR PANEL. I NOTICED THAT THE CONTROL SWITCH FOR THE FRONT RIGHT WINDOW WAS NOW STICKING. I PULLED OUT THE POWER WINDOW FUSE FROM THE ENGINE FUSE BOX AND TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC. UPON DISASSEMBLING THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO EXAMINE THE WIRING INSIDE THE DOOR AND ALL LOOKED NORMAL (NO SIGN OF BURNS). THEY TOOK OUT THE MAIN POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH AND DISASSEMBLED THAT AND FOUND CLEAR BURN MARKS UNDERNEATH ONE SWITCH AND ON THE MOTHERBOARD ATTACHED TO IT. THEY WILL BE INSTALLING A BRAND NEW SWITCH TOMORROW THAT WAS ORDERED FROM HONDA. UNTIL THE SWITCH IS REPLACED, I DO NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE POWER LOCKS FROM THE INSIDE, OPENING OR CLOSING THE WINDOWS, OR ADJUSTING THE REAR VIEW MIRRORS. I DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL SWITCH AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW OF THE DAMAGE. WHILE I DID NOT SEE FLAMES, I DO BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE INSIDE THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH AND HAD THE CAR RUN ANY LONGER, THE SMOKE AND FIRE WOULD HAVE SPREAD AND COULD HAVE LED TO MORE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING (AND NOT PARKED) WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD, WIRES LEADING TO 12 VOLT POWER SUPPLY IN DASH AREA WERE DARKENED, CAUSED SHORT THAT LEFT RADIO AND GEAR SHIFT ENERGIZED AT ALL TIMES. BATTERY WAS DRAINED. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CRV WHICH HAS A LIGHT THAT KEEPS COMING ON TELLING ME THAT THE REAR DOOR IS OPEN. IT IS NOT. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS REALLY A SAFETY AND SECURITY PROBLEM BECAUSE WHEN THIS LIGHT IS ON, THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED TWICE , THE LAST TIME BEING NOV. 15TH 2007. I AM READY TO TAKE IT BACK BECAUSE NOW IT COMES ON AND PRETTY MUCH STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. *TR

NON-DRIVING FAILURE: AT NIGHT, WHEN OPENING CAR THE DOOR, METER NEEDLES KEEP SHAKING REGARDLESS IF KEY IS IN OR OUT. IN-DRIVING FAILURE: FOR EACH DAY FIRST DRIVING, ALL METER NEEDLES SUDDENLY POINT AT 0-POSITION, AND BRAKE & MAINTENANCE LIGHT ON AND DISPLAY KEEPS FLASHING, REGARDLESS IF CAR IS MOVING OR AT A STOP, OR FUEL TANK IS FULL. SUCH PROBLEM KEEPS SEVERAL MINUTES AND AUTOMATICALLY GOES AWAY. THE FAILURE IS REPEATED FOR THE FIRST DRIVING OF EACH DRIVING DAY. DEALER SAID THEY DO NOT KNOW THE ROOT CAUSE BUT SAW ONE SIMILAR CASE A FEW MONTHS AGO AND AFTER REPLACING THE ENTIRE METER PANEL THE CUSTOMER NEVER CAME BACK. DEALER MENTIONED THAT EARLY BUILD OF 2006 HONDA CR-VS HAVE SUCH PROBLEM AND AMERICAN HONDA ALREADY KNEW THE PROBLEM. BUT AMERICAN HONDA CLAIMED TO THE CUSTOMER THAT IT DOES NOT KNOW SUCH FAILURE. THOUGH NOT KNOWING THE ROOT CAUSE, AMERICAN HONDA INSTRUCTED DEALER TO REPLACE ENTIRE METER PANEL, THE CAR IS STILL IN REPAIR AS OF 6/22/2006. WE FOUND ODI ID #10156440 HAS SIMILARITY. *JB

ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. FROM THE FIRST MORNING AFTER I PURCHASED VEHICLE UNTIL WARMER WEATHER CAME. IN COLD WEATHER, BELOW 34 DEGREES, EVEN BEFORE KEY IS PLACED IN IGNITION, THE SPEEDOMETER IS TWITCHING SHOWING ELECTRICAL CURRENT GOING THROUGH. ONCE KEY IS PLACED IN IGNITION, FOR THE FIRST 3-8 MINUTES, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. TRIP METER IS RESET, INSIDE DASHBOARD PANEL HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN. DEALER HAS SO FAR REPLACED THE FUSE BOX AND THE ELECTRICAL CLUSTER. THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO SO HAVE CALLED AMERICAN HONDA TO TAKE OVER.*JB

THE FRONT ACC ADAPTOR IN MY 2006 CR-V CONSTANTLY BLEW FUSES. I REQUESTED SERVICE ON MY CAR THREE TIMES, AND ALL THREE TIMES THE FUSES WERE ONLY REPLACED. NO ONE SEEMED TO KNOW THE CAUSE OF THE SURGE. I FINALLY TOOK THE CAR BACK AGAIN IN NOVEMBER 2006 AND TOLD THEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM, NOT JUST REPLACE THE FUSE. THE HOUSING OF THE ACC ADAPTOR HAD FAULTY CONNECTIONS THAT CAUSED BOTH CONTACTS TO TOUCH AND THUS BLOW THE FUSES. THE MANAGER OF THE MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT GAVE ME A PRINTOUT EXPLAINING THAT THE COMPANY HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEFECT SINCE MARCH OF 2006 BUT DID NOT WISH TO DO A RECALL DUE TO THE LIMITED AFFECT THE SURGES HAD ON THE OPERATION OF THE CAR OVERALL. I PERSONALLY TRAVEL EXTENSIVELY WITH MY JOB AND USE MY ACC ADAPTOR DAILY. THIS SPECIFIC DEFECT CAUSED ME TO BE UNABLE TO CHARGE MY PHONE WHILE AWAY FROM MY HOME ON BUSINESS. THE PHONE DIED AND I WAS LEFT WITHOUT A WAY TO CONTACT ANYONE. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT FOR HONDA TO PUBLISH THIS DEFECT IN THE ACC ADAPTOR HOUSING TO ALL OWNERS OF 2006 CR-VS. *NM
