2007 HONDA CRV PROBLEMS WITH DOOR LOCKS. THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND CAN'T BE RELOCKED. AT FIRST IT WAS THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK, GOT THAT FIXED @ HONDA AND COST ABOUT $300 BACK IN OCT 2010 @ 38500 OD MI. NOW, THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK HAS THE SAME PROBLEM! USING REMOTE KEYLESS OR DRIVER'S MASTER DOOR LOCK BUTTON, ALL DOORS LOCK EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVER'S DOOR. IT CONSTANTLY MAKES GRINDING SOUNDS AND LOCK CLICKING ON BUT DOES NOT LOCK!!.. TRIED TO LOCK MANUALLY, BUT KEY DOES NOT WORK, AFRAID TO FORCE IT AND HAVE IT BREAK IN THE LOCK. SAFETY ISSUE AND AS WELL AS PROPERTY DAMAGE (UNABLE TO SECURE PROPERTY). I HEAR THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH HONDAS CRV AND OTHER MODELS, DATING BACK QUITE A FEW YEARS AND MAKES SENSE IF HONDA CONTRACTING THE SAME VENDORS! QUALITY CONTROL ISSUE? THE RECENT RECALL FOR 2012 HONDAS AND ACURAS FOR DEFECTIVE DOOR LOCKS!! IF USING SAME VENDOR - SAME PROBLEM - AND WHY ONLY 2012 IF OLDER CARS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS? RECALL SHOULD BE FOR OLDER CARS AS WELL! ***THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THE POWERTRAIN @ 66000 OD MI. - RECENTLY NOTICED THAT AT SPEEDS OF 10 - 15 MPH ( AFTER EVERY STOP) CAR SLUGGISH AS IF ABOUT TO LOSE POWER (DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE) RECALL ISSUES! *TR

TIRES
THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY. TOOK CAR TO DEALER WHO CHECKED TIRES AND DID NOT FIND A PROBLEM. DEALER RESET/RECALIBRATED TPMS BY PRESSING BUTTON. DROVE CAR FOR ANOTHER 300 MILES AND TPMS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. PERSONALLY CHECKED PRESSURE IN ALL TIRES WITH A MANUAL TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE. ALL FOUR TIRE PRESSURES WERE WITHIN SPEC AT 33 PSI. I RESET/RECALIBRATED THE TPMS BY PRESSING BUTTON. READ ON THE INTERNET THAT OTHER 2014 HONDA CR-V OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE TPMS WARNING CAN NOT BE RELIED ON BECAUSE IT GIVES FALSE INDICATIONS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE TPMS ON THE 2014 HONDA CR-V IS AN INDIRECT SYSTEM. THERE ARE NO ACTUAL PRESSURE SENSORS. IT USES THE WHEEL SPEED/ROTATION SENSORS TO DETERMINE WHEN THERE IS A TIRE PRESSURE PROBLEM. THE COMPUTER INDICATES A PROBLEM BASED ON DIFFERENT SPEEDS/ROTATION OF THE WHEELS. I DON'T KNOW IF THE SENSORS ARE THE PROBLEM OR IF IT IS THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE. *TR
