What owners wrote
On 1/28/2017 my daughter's 2009 honda crv caught on fire in our driveway and burned until it was a total loss. It only had 87,000 miles on it and seemed to be running perfectly that day. I had driven her car for one hour (a 44 mile trip), returned home, turned off the car, took the keys out of the ignition and went inside the house. About ten minutes later, one of my daughters heard a car alarm, we looked outside and saw flames shooting out of the front of the car.
More than a year ago I contacted your agency about recalls for my honda crv 2009, but never got any response. However, I am constantly bombarded by entities offering extended warranty. Front passenger window does not raise, it is faulty. No response from john eagle honda where said vehicle purchased in 2014. Further research disclosed recall on such vehicles but up to 2006. Window does not work whether stationary or in motion.
