Vehicle/Equipment Model: HR-V

Model Year: 2021


Summary

In November 2024, I purchased a 2021 HondaeBay HR-V with approximately 65,881 miles from Carvana, which conducted an inspection and found no issues. However, just four months later, while driving on the highway, my vehicle suddenly went into neutral, and all warning lights came on. It was a terrifying experience, as I narrowly avoided a collision with a semi-truck before the car shut off entirely. I was lucky to make it to the side of the road safely. Upon having the car towed to my mechanic, it was discovered that the transmission sensor contained metal shards, indicating an internal transmission failure likely due to a factory defect. This was further confirmed by an authorized HondaeBay dealer, who found that the CVT belt had disintegrated and that this was unrelated to wear and tear. Given the fact that my vehicle was less than four years old with 74,165 miles on it, this is a clear indication of a serious factory defect. This is a video of someone else CVT transmission that failed: [XXX] FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Summary

To: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE Washington, DC 20590 Subject: Complaint Regarding FordeBay's Handling of Battery Recall (Recall 25S02 / 24S24) Dear NHTSA, I’m writing out of growing frustration and serious concern over how FordeBay is handling, or rather, not handling, the battery recall affecting my 2022 FordeBay Bronco Sport. My vehicle is part of the battery recall (25S02 and 24S24), which clearly states that affected batteries could swell, fail, or even lead to power loss. That’s exactly what’s happened to mine. The battery in my vehicle is swollen and defective, and now the car won’t start at all. It’s not just an inconvenience, it’s a safety issue. I’ve called several local FordeBay dealerships trying to get the battery replaced, but none of them have helped me. I’ve also reached out to FordeBay’s customer service line multiple times, and I’ve been given the runaround every time, told to call a dealer, told it’s not covered, or simply dismissed. Plus, they told me that I should contact the NHTSA to lodge a formal complaint. It’s incredibly frustrating to be stuck like this when there’s an active recall for this exact issue. The battery is visibly swollen, and I’m worried this could become dangerous if it continues to degrade. At this point, I feel like FordeBay is ignoring its responsibility to fix a known safety defect, and I’m left without a working vehicle, and no clear path forward. Please look into this. I don’t believe I’m the only one experiencing this issue, and the fact that FordeBay is refusing to replace a clearly defective part under an open recall is unacceptable. Vehicle VIN: [XXX] Phone: [XXX] Email: [XXX] Thank you for your attention. Sincerely, [XXX] Sanford, NC INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
