2023 Honda HR-V Complaints

Rear windshield exploded

I never rolled anything on the street and no none was in sight .. I approached my home and parked the car and immediately checked the back to see if a rock or some sort was in the trunk however there was no evidence of that . Researching I notice many others have experienced this random spontaneous shatttering related to manufacturing error of window/defroster glue on defroster coiling . This was a huge danger for anyone in the back including myself the driver .. I’m very upset that Honda has not set a full recall on this other customers . I could have or another person sustained a se...

The steering wheel hard to turn. Need more effort to turn. Feel a notch or sticking in the wheel. The steering makes squeaking sound when turning. The dealer where I bought the car cannot find the problem.
