There are 3 owner-reported visibility & wipers complaints for the 2022 Honda HR-Vin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Window shattered after turning on defrost.
The contact owns a 2022 Honda HR-V. The contact stated that while attempting to have the front windshield replaced, the contact was informed that the independent mechanic was unable to replace the windshield due to an issue with the static and dynamic angling calibration. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, who also experienced the same issues. The contact was informed by the dealer that six windshields had been used and each was defective. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 14,000.
Windshield wipers suddenly just stopped working without warning while I was driving my 2022 Honda HRV (36,603 miles) during a rainfall. Thankfully I was not on the interstate and I was able to pull over into a parking lot. I took my car to the Napleton Honda Morton Grove Illinois where they inspected my vehicle. They said I need to replace the windshield wiper motor and linkage ($1100!). The car gave me NO warning messages leading up this this event. This could have been catastrophic to me and other drivers if I were in a heavy rainstorm on the interstate when this windshield wiper failure occurred. Please investigate to see if a recall is needed.
