Description of the problem | Just as we were approaching the 4000ft descent to the valley floor, the instrument panel lit up with multiple warnings, the first being major brake failure. I stepped on the brake which was first soft, then immediately became hard to press down to stop the car. A small turnoff allowed me to get the car off the highway and stopped. Multiple warnings continued across the screen. Shut off the car to restart the computer, then restarted the car. Same messages. Checked exterior of car, tires, oil. All well. Towed to honda dealership where it was tested for ebb and esb failure, ecu failure. Electronic booster was replaced and the brake system bled. Honda had the car for 7 days. Yesterday we picked up the cr-v, having been told that it was repaired and ready to go. We drove away, but less than a mile from the dealer/service location, the exact same problem occurred - instrument panel lit up multiple warnings with brake the most emphatic. I was not braking when the warning came, but immediately braked to get off the road. Again the grinding sounds and difficulty pressing hard enough to stop the car. Car is back at the dealer for service. The problem is not fixed and we do not trust any repair at this point. We could have been seriously injured on the mountain highway and are not willing to risk our lives again. |
