What owners wrote
This safety issue was not revealed to me at purchase. Vehicle is a push button start and stop and does not have an electronic parking break. Vehicle can be turned off while in Drive, however the gear train does not remain engaged. INCIDENT: The car was moved by my husband who does not drive the car and is accustom to driving a keyed vehicle with ignition interlock. He is also hard of hearing and did not hear quite beeping.
Tl* the contact owns a 2016 honda cr-v. While driving approximatley 40 MPH, the vehicle started to hesitate and lose power. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (north shore honda located in glen head, ny), but the failure was unable to be duplicated. Several weeks later, while driving in stop and go traffic, the transmission suddenly failed and would not shift into gear. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who replaced the valve body assembly. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure.
