Honda Cr-v Electrical System Fuses And Circuit Breakers Safety Report | Nov 17, 1996
Reported on Nov 17, 1996
| DRIVING AT 65 MPH, MY 2002 HONDA CRV LOST TOTAL CONTROL AND UNCONTROLLABLY JERKED TO RIGHT AND LEFT INTO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE AND ENDED UP SPINNING COMPLETELY AROUND. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR WHATSOEVER. THE JERKING AND SPINNING STOPPED WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED. THEN WHEN STARTING THE CAR AGAIN IT WOULD NOT RUN IN 2ND, 4TH OR 5TH GEARS. IN THOSE GEARS THE CAR JERKED FORWARD (AT LEAST IT WAS IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION). I DROVE IN 1ST AND 3RD GEARS ONLY. THE HONDA MECHANIC IN KALISPELL MONTANA WHERE I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO SAID THAT A FUSE IN THE FUSE BOX THAT HAD TO WITH THE LOAD HAD COME LOOSE AND THEREFORE CAUSED THE MALFUNCTION. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DEADLY MALFUNCTION. ONE FUSE CAN CAUSE SUCH AN EXPERIENCE MUST BE AN ENGINEERING FLAW. *LA | |
