Honda alarm system with auto-start
 
Honda doesn't make an alarm system with remote starter, at least not in the US.
 
From your description it sure sounds like the remote starter components are the problem. I'd have it replaced or removed.

Thank you for the info. At this point I appreciate any kind of advice or troubleshooting. It's very discouraging to have a perfectly good car that doesn't want to run.
  
We attached a wire from the starter directly to the battery and "hot-wired" the car to get it started. It is being played with at a mechanics today and I'll keep you posted on what the culprit is.
 
The alarm system was installed by Honda in Canada. I think it's a sherlock system, but I'd have to double-check.

I don't blame your wife for feeling that way. My car never turend off while driving, just after sitting in the driveway overnight - it now wants nothing to do with starting. The mechanic was talking about possibly being the clutch relay switch or starter; but I think in the end it has something to do with this alarm/cut-off/auto-start system.
 
My advice would be to keep pushing on solving this problem - the car is trying to tell you something.

I beg to differ with you on this subject. I would like to clarify that the pulling to the right is so bad that I can actually chnge lanes without touching the wheel. Would you call that a "normal" drift of the vehicle. I don't believe so!!

I don't believe this problem is being overblown. I purchased a 2006 CRV in October and within a week of purchase, it was back at the dealership being looked at for this problem. Since then, it has been to two different dealership a combined four times and I also was working with a district manager from Honda. Do you think that this is being overblown now? I would be ashamed to say I worked for Honda after hearing something like this about your product. Also, I can't believe you would have the audacity to make a comment about lifting weights.

Brake Corrosion by fussycrvowner

Hello: I have an '02 CRV EX which has brake corrosion issues. Every 12,000 miles I am ending up removing the brake pads and cleaning the mounting surfaces. If I don't, the brake pads drag against the drums and overheat. The dealer took care of at 12,000 miles and since I do myself. I even put the disk brake grease on the mounting areas as specified. Does anyone know of a more "permanent" fix for this? I am considering replacing the calipers since the corrosion has gotten into the piston areas. CRV currently has 29,000 miles on it.

I had 43K on mine with no problems like this. Something is wrong with the brakes; get the dealer to replace the brakes or at least the pads, under warranty.

Been down the replacement route. The dealer actually did replace the rear pads at 12,000 miles since they were worn completely to the metal. My understanding is that brakes are a wear related item and only carry a 12,000 mile warranty. The rest of the car is out of warranty since I have had it longer than 3 years now. The only thing I can think of is to refer back to the service bulletin addressing brake corrosion. I guess I could always discuss the problem with the service manager and see if there would be any goodwill gestures.

Hi,
 
I think I have the same problem, I have an 02' 2wd lx
with 27500 miles,all I need is to drive it for 5 to 10 minutes in the city traffic the front brakes start getting hot and make this annoying grinding noise I checked the pads there is more than half left on them,and what I read in your comment makes sense I will check that this weekend. Thank you. By reading this section I've got more info and help than the dealers.
