Stall on a turn, but continues

800 Views 24 Replies 11 Participants Last post by  SnakeCharmer
Owning my 2022 CRV-EX, which works perfectly in nearly every way. But frequently, with making a gentle right turn, when I apply pressure to the accelerator, the RPM actually drops. Press a little further, then the RPM picks back up again. Any others experience this? And thanks for your feedback

Not aware of anything, but would like to know what dealer finds!

I'm a little interested. I'm just trying to find a half-day that the answer will cost me.
Fuel level good? Happen on low tank or doesn't matter? Using good gas and station? Just some questions...

Tank is never lower than 3/4 full, use only Philips "Top Tier" gas, use only Premium gas, and an excellent station. Those were good questions.

Sounds good, I don't have the turbo model, but not sure if its just maybe normal lag, but good to get checked. I'm guessing in warranty mileage.
I've never experienced this in my '22 and I haven't heard anyone else experiencing this problem. I'd definitely take it to the dealership.
Agreed with other members. Most likely something is getting stretched or there is a problem with the fuel level issue that when you turn the fuel pump starves for fuel and the engine cuts off. Was anything done before this happened?

Nothing was done before this happened. It's not a new problem, and I experience it very seldom. But I'll be driving 300 miles for June vacation, and 300 miles back home.
As the others said take it to the dealer have them check it out. Have them document it for future reference. Good luck let us know how it turns out.

The lag on the turbo in 1.5Ts is virtually nonexistent on a proper working power train. Most perceived lag is actually from the CVT, under low acceleration and low rpm. Even that is virtually zero, unless you really granny-foot the accelerator.

That said, if there is an operational problem with the turbo.. then all bets are off. These small turbos used by Honda a super rugged though (produced by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries who is a big world supplier of turbos of all types and sizes).

The symptoms you describe are not something being reported by other owners, that I am aware of.

As you are still under factory warranty, the best approach here is to visit your dealer for an evaluation. That is what a factory warranty is for. :)

DO NOT just leave our vehicle at the dealer with just a verbal description of what you are experiencing. Instead, ask to have a service tech take a short test ride with you so you can demonstrate your concern. Once the service tech concurs with your concern, you have a much much lower chance of your vehicle being returned with the never popular "we found nothing out of spec or unusual, please return again if it keeps repeating, yada yada.

I would suggest that before going to the dealer, you found a nice big empty parking lot some Sunday morning before the stores open and start making some gentle figure eights or full circles in both directions. Try different things to duplicate the problem. Does it happen whether you are turning right or left or only in one direction?

The more information you can provide to the dealer the better the chance of isolating the problem. If during your experimental drives you can duplicate the problem almost every time then that will definitely help the mechanic who works on it be able to duplicate it himself to firstly verify the problem, and secondly to see if whatever action he takes fixes the problem.

Best of luck! Let us know how you make out.

Forgot to mention open the hood and see anything out of the Ordinary. Check the tightness of the battery terminals.

Symptoms like this can be caused by a carburetor float issue. :LOL:

I am as curious as others here to hear what the cause of this is. Please keep us informed.

Kinda sounds like an issue with the vehicle stability assist. Like it’s response to lateral G’s and wheel speed is miscalculated and it’s cutting fuel intentionally.
I had a car that stalled whenever I'd turn in one direction (can't remember which direction. Doesn't matter, it wasn't a Honda). The problem turned out to be a loose battery (not a loose battery cable, but the actual battery was loose). When I'd turn, the battery would shift and the positive terminal would short out against a rib on the hood. When I'd finish the turn, the terminal would stop making contact and the car would start up again. Just a thought.

UPDATE: I followed your suggestion and took it to a Honda dealer this morning. Murphy's Law took over! With a Service Advisor onboard, I drove and did more right turns. Result? The stall never happened. It drove perfectly today. But, the Honda dealer tech told me to go have a seat and they would take my car for another test drive, and then do checks for other anomaly. After two hours with the techs, they found absolutely nothing wrong. Since then, I drove another 30 miles and with right turns, it never stalled, not even once.

I'm sure hoping someone here with a 2022 CRV-EX will have experienced the same thing.
