2018 Honda CR-V Speed Control & Cruise Problems

I just filled a report but on October 3rd @ 3:34pm the same thing happened where while in cruise control the car just brakes and there was no reason for that to happen.

When vehicle starts it shakes for a few seconds then is fine. When I drive and give it gas my car stutters and feels like it wants to shut off. On the highway with acceleration the check engine light comes on blinking and the car loses power. The codes read misfire I replaced the sparks plugs and coils 4 time already just for it to do it again a couple months later. I read this is a common problem and unsafe Honda needs to do something

June 2, 2025 –Started slowing for stoplight and left turn. Car again was not slowing down as expected when braking so I pressed harder on the brake pedal. It slowed down then but I didn’t go to a complete stop because traffic was moving. Instead, I let the car creep a bit while waiting for an opening to turn left. I then drove a couple of blocks to a 4-way stop where the revving started again when the car came to a full stop. I put it into Park, and it went to 8000 RPM. I turned it off and back on—again back to 8000 RPM. Wouldn’t come out of Park. Turned off again and back on—same thing. Turned off and took my foot off of the brake. The car lurched forward quite a bit before stopping—guess the Parking gear took hold then. I started the car again, and the RPM was normal. This is the second occurrence. Occurred first time in late June, 2024. - Braking and speed control affected - Car trying to accelerate when applying brake can lead to accident harming me and potentially others - Problem has occurred three times over the past year - Vehicle was checked and diagnostics run by dealership in July, 2024. Nothing found, was not able to recreate the scenario. No diagnostics available. - No warnings, messages, or other symptoms other than car not slowing as expected. Took car back to dealership on 6/6/2025 who reminded me that they didn't find anything last time. Am taking it to different dealer for a check this time.

Driving the car and it lasked power to drive.I could not accelerate. Check the codes code said it was a Turbo issue called dealership.Got an appointment. Dealership says it's the turbo and it's twenty seven hundred dollars to repair.

Unknown My car wasn’t getting any gas stuck in traffic. Have complained to the dealership about the recall and the problem I was having I was given the run around about replacing the fuel pump

While driving on highway , I attempted to accelerate to pass , as I did all warning lights came on and I lost ability to accelerate. The car went into “limp mode “ . Took it to local mechanic, the to Honda dealer . I was told I need a new engine , at a cost of over $16k .

Vehicle suddenly starts showing all warnings lights on dashboard, including: - Adaptive Cruise control​ - Collision Mitigation​ - Road Departure Mitigation​ - Vehicle Stability Assist​ - Hill Start Assist​ - Electric Parking Brake​ - Tire Pressure Monitoring and many more.

*To be honest, I'm unsure of what systems are failing, but there are multiple. The dash shows Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA problem), Hill Start Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Power Steering (EPS) Problem, Electric Parking Brake Problem, Emissions System Problem, Brake System Problem. *These systems are integral to safe driving for me and my family, even though I can drive the vehicle. I cannot use cruise control, lane-keep assist, or brake hold, and the car is not handling like it was. It tends to be harder to control. * The warning lamps and messages are on and indicated in the first point. This happened on Monday while my wife was driving, and all those systems shut off. When she parked she did an online search of what the issue might be and found multiple YouTube videos of Honda owners for different models and years with the same problem. One remedy required a reboot of the electrical system in accessory mode. That worked for a day, but now the errors won't clear, and we're unable to use the vehicle's safety features.

Several times, the vehicle will brake without an obstacle in the road. It is extremely scary - at one time, it forced me to react unexpectedly and almost got into an accident. This is scary.

This has happened about 3 times since I purchased the vehicle in end of 2018. While I was driving out of no where the car will just brake, there is nothing in front of me or blocking me and one time I was going about 40 mph and the others were when I was going about 30 and 50 so it’s been a range. Luckily every time I’ve been driving there has not been anyone behind me but for sure if someone was behind me, I possibly would’ve gotten rear ended with how fast the car stopped. Other times the car will beep the brake indicator at me, but not stop the car just telling me I need to apply the brakes but there’s nothing in front of me or around me.

Hello NHTS, I have been dealing with my vehicle stalling & losing power while driving on the freeway. This is a very dangerous issue with my Honda CRV. I have had this happen several times now and it was reported to Honda. Honda has not yet placed this issue on recall status. This needs to get looked at before someone gets injured or killed.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving into the garage at his condominium, the vehicle accelerated unintendedly, and the front driver's side of the vehicle crashed into the wall of the garage. The contact stated that the garage was damaged. There was no warning light illuminated. The air bags deployed. The contact had pain and swelling to the thumb of his right hand. The contact's wife had pain in the chest but no physical injury. Both the contact and his wife were examined at the scene by emergency units. The contact did not seek further medical assistance. A police report was filed. The vehicle remained in the garage. The homeowner’s insurance and the vehicle insurance provider were notified of the failure. The contact stated that the vehicle would be towed in the next couple days. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 16,000.

Emergency Braking system is activated while the car is on road in 30+ miles speed and the car lost it control. Managed to stop it after driving a car for almost a mile long and then applying the break with hard attempt. This happened twice one around 10:30 PM on Jul 29th, 2022 and the subsequent day when I try to pull my car out of drive way. I decided to call my insurance for towing the car and sent it to my regular service provider Battison Honda, (Address) 8700 Northwest Expy, Oklahoma City, OK 73162.

In early April 2022 the Body Control Module went bad. A replacement was ordered, and is still unavailable (Honda PN: 38809-TMM-A21). This rendered the car unable to be started, unless the battery was first disconnected and then reconnected (as advised by Honda Service). However, this results in several error lights, including emergency braking, hill start assist, lane keeping assist, collision warning systems, blind spot systems, as well as non-driving systems like operation of the windows, and the associated symptom of these systems working intermittently, or not at all. Honda still has not provided a reliable estimate for the part to be made available, despite escalating the situation to their corporate level. I am aware of other Honda models of the same year having BCM (Body Control Module) issues and a recall being current and active.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle unintentionally accelerated. Additionally, the RPM was fluctuating. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

At times when I press down on the accelerator, the car tries to cut off! I have had times where I have come close to getting hit by another car. Don’t know if anyone else is having this problem but I really like my car. I am scared that I am going to get hit when the car tries to stall when I push down on gas pedal. Thank You for taking the time to hear about my situation!

We were driving across Florida on 1-10 on final leg of a 3-day trip. At 73 miles per hour the center display went crazy. We got in short order an ACC warning and numerous other alarms in the driver information center under the speedometer. This continued for a minute. After slowing down and pulling off the road and shutting down car, the problem went away. The following Wednesday , the center vehicle display in city traffic went crazy beeping and flashing brighter then darker. The brightness setting slider bar came on and would not go away. The radio signal changed channels and volumes. A loud beeping similiar to the verification tone when inputting settings was going off repeatedly. Nothing stopped the above warnings until my wife arrived home and we shut down the engine. The only way to stop all was to shutdown the center display completely

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT IN AN OPEN STREET, NO OBSTACLES AT ALL. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE STARTED BEEPING AND SLAMMED THE BRAKES TO A COMPLETE STOP. I WAS ALMOST THROWN OUT OF MY SEAT BUT THANK GOD I HAD MY SEATBELT ON. I CHECKED MY DASH CAMERA FOOTAGE ASWELL NO SIGN OF OBSTACLE, NOTHING AT ALL. I BELIEVE ITS THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM THAT GOT ACTIVATED FOR NO REASON. I HAVE MY DASH CAM FOOTAGE TO SUPPORT MY CLAIM.

A BUNCH OF SENSORS INCLUDING THE RADAR, LANE DEPARTURE, COLLISION DETECTION WAS STOLEN FROM MY 2018 HONDA CRV WITHOUT THE CENTRAL ALARM GETTING TRIGGERED. THE BLACK BOX BELOW THE HONDA LOGO WAS BROKEN, AND THE SENSOR/CONNECTORS WERE PULLED OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKING IN MY DRIVEWAY. BRIDGEWATER NJ POLICE COMPLAIN NO: #[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL "ON". TWO INCIDENTS IN THE PAST YEAR THE CAR'S BRAKING SYTEM ACTIVATED AS IF I WERE GOING TO HIT SOMETHING. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND NO CARS WERE WITHIN 500 TO 1000 FEET AND NO OTHER OBJECTS WERE OBSERVED. THEN TWICE IN THE PAST MONTH THE FLASHING "BRAKE" LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASH PANEL INDICATING I SHOULD SLOW DOWN AS I MAY HIT SOMETHING. AGAIN, THIS OCCURRED ON THE NTERSTATE AND NO CARS OR OBJECTS WERE ANYWHERE NEAR ME. THIS LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 01/01/2020.
