Great breakdown...To help with discussion in this particular thread, when making any reference to "warranty" please be specific. Please help avoid discussion forum confusion and needless additional posts to clarify confusions.
- There is a factory warranty (3/36) that covers virtually anything and everything. This includes starter batteries, but does not include tires which are covered under the tire manufacturers warranty.
- There is also a power train warranty (5/60), which covers major internal component failures of the power train.
- There is an emissions warranty, actually two different types depending on the state you live in. If you live in one of 13 states that have adopted California emissions standards, you get a much richer warranty coverage of 7/70 AND it covers any engine components that can or are contributing to higher than normal emissions. For this discussion, that would include the fuel injectors and their rail.
- For Gen5 CRVs there is a separate letter from Honda granting a limited extension of the power train warranty to 6 years/unlimited miles. This warranty does NOT cover the injectors.. it's been tested and found consistently to not apply as far as Honda corporate is concerned. This warranty letter gets pulled out and put on the table often in discussion, without actually reading and understanding what it covers, and what it does not. It is useless for the fuel injector issue.
- And then there is the HondaCare extended warranty. This warranty has a number of different options available, but generally is a 7/70 or 8/100 warranty that covers just about everything in the vehicle other than normal wear components, and body or paint defects not attributable to a manufacturing defect. [Honestly these are sold as such favorable prices by some dealers online now days, I think any owner who pays 30K+ for a new Honda would be foolish not to spend $1000-1200 for a HondaCare policy. It represents ~3% of your purchase price to buy one, and will more than pay for itself on a single claim in most cases.
Honestly the exception letter from Honda extending the power train warranty for certain components was always about building confidence with owners, not materially addressing any possible engine issue. It very much appears to be written to account for the small number of owners who may have experienced early cam failure in their engines.
A lot of things can trigger those alert codes, including a weak battery or charging system. Stop guessing and speculating and have the OBDII codes read from the vehicle. There are specific codes that will be set if the injectors are bad ("fuel air mixture too rich" codes)I have 2017 Honda CRV ex 2wd. I had the previous fuel injector issue around 45 k miles and took the car to dealer multiple times. Got the good will replacement and spent ~$500 and resolved the issue
Now, I have something similar happening again. The car is around 62 k. I get some similar error messages every so often and they go away after I restart the car. These messages have gotten more frequent.
I wanted to know if anyone else has gotten fuel injection problems fixed and is now running into similar issues ?
I see the brake system, LKAS and ACC light come on. I have taken the car to a car wash but not tried anything else
