Replying to: mcdermott (Dec 18, 2008 1:39 pm) Worth it to me to change to new rubber for the ride, performance and overall safety. Particularly when the weather gets wet and cold. My$0.02. Just purchased a 2008 EX AWD and new to this board. Regards, OW |

I bought this 08 CR-V in December 2008 and only drove it very lightly. I parked it on the street on 12/19/2008 and left for the holiday. Today (1/3/2009) when I came back, the battery completely died. I couldn't even open the door with my remote or lock the door using the button. I double checked that no light was left on during this period. So how could this happen? If it was due to a bad battery, will Honda replace it for me for free? (it's a year and a few days since purchase.) I don't know much about cars and thanks in advance! |

Replying to: zswx (Jan 03, 2009 8:15 pm)  100K Miles has been trouble free except for dome lamp switches and brakes at 90 K Miles (mostly highway), wait, the cruise control has given up on the CR-V, doing it myself now.

Cruise control stopped working. Switch near door jam no longer lights. I checked fuse "Meter" and it is o.k. Is there another fuse to check? |

I let my boyfriend drive my brand new CRV while his car was being repaired. He drove it for about a month. I only had the CRV for a little over a month and totally babied it. It ran quiet and smooth and I loved it. Since his driving it, the car now runs very loud. When the steering wheel is straight the car goes left no matter what kind of road I'm on. It shakes and vibrates hard moving or just sitting at a red light. I had taken the car to dealership 2 times and they don't want to help me. I asked if the car needed and alignment, they said no.They said my car is making normal vibrations and gave me some silly story about my having stuff in my cupholdlers making the normal vibration seem worse than it is. I think they just don't want to fix my car. I'm a woman, and yes, know very little about cars, But what I do know is my car is messed up. They balanced my tires both times for me and just hoped I would go away. My boyfriend is the type to deny deny deny no matter what,.he claims nothing happened while he drove it.. but the entrance into my community where I live is a grade that if you are unaware of it, you will be airborn if you hit it hard and fast. Most everyone who is unaware of it does. I know he was unaware of it because I just moved here and he never drove here because his car was being repaired and I did all the driving. He made a statement a week ago that the entrance is really hard on the front end of a car if you don't know about it and it was like his confession to me without admitting that's what he had done. Another thing he does and I just never noticed until he was driving my CRV, is that he drives with two feet. Gas-right foot, brake-left foot. Another thing that happened was we were on a road trip and it was raining very hard the whole way and he drove. When we got to where we were going, I took over driving and something happened where we lost brakes for a couple seconds at a red light and the CRV made a crunching sound. We drove to a gas station and he checked under the hood and said the transmission fluid was low and he proceeded to go into store at gas station and bought transmission fluid and put it in. I don't know what kind of Transmission fluid, but it was something at a convenience store/gas station. I'm not sure, but was told that he checked the transmission fluid wrong and the way he did it, it would read empty when really it wasn't. Can someone please help me figure out what he did to the car so that I can take it back and tell them to check for something specific instead of them telling me nothing is wrong? Thanks for your help! |
