A settlement has been reached in a Honda class action lawsuit, providing relief and repairs to the owners and lessees of 2015 Honda CR-V vehicles who experienced a vibration defect.

The award for the Honda CR-V settlement is not monetary. Instead, Honda has created a Customer Outreach Program to inform vehicle owners about the existence and availability of vehicle modifications.

The vehicle modifications were previously approved by Honda, but plaintiffs in the class action argued that the car dealership did not adequately communicate these remedies to consumers experiencing vibration issues in their 2015 Honda CR-V.

The settlement will also provide regular reminders about warranty coverage regarding the vehicle modifications and about settlement Class Members’ rights.

Although the settlement is not monetary, payment amounts will be negotiated for class counsel and class representative awards. Class counsel attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses have yet to be negotiated. Class Representatives may be eligible for a cash reward based on their experiences.

Plaintiffs who submitted their vehicles for testing and inspection are eligible for a $4,000 cash reward. Plaintiffs who did not submit their vehicles for testing and inspection are eligible for a $2,500 cash reward.

The Honda CR-V class action lawsuit was originally filed in May 2015, alleging that the a defect in the vehicles’ engines cause vibrating “to the point of nausea.”

In October 2015, Honda motioned to consolidate the class action with similar suits. Honda and a group of plaintiffs argued that the claims should be consolidated in a California federal court, while another group of plaintiffs argued for consolidation in Ohio federal court.

The latter group won the debate and, in March 2016, the class action was consolidated in Ohio federal court.

Class Members are not required to submit any Claim Form in order to participate in the settlement. The exclusion and objection date was Aug. 24, 2018 and the final approval hearing is scheduled for Nov. 6, 2018.

    1. DON'T BUY HONDA says:

      2014 Crap-RV here. Americrap honda in Torrance, CA started giving me their usual runaround bullshit towards end of warranty. Had problems with their POS from day one, but their attitude was different in the beginning. They refuse to compensate financially, made THEIR problems MY problems. I’m going to flip the table on them. I’m making THEIR problems THEIRS, NOT MINE!!! Everyone should do the same. Sue them out of existence, file complaints wherever possible. Local and California consumer affairs, better business bureau. Make corporate bastards pay!!!

  6. Shanta Berry says:

    Own a Rav 2015. We took a road trip from TX to CA and I’ve never been car sick. This time it vibrates so much I threw up. Cost a lot of money to clean.

  7. Martin Velasquez says:

    I have a 2013 that does the same thing, the vibration is noticed during acceleration, can you help us get it fixed?

    1. BOYCOTT HONDA says:

      You want class action site to help you? They don’t help. They refer to lawyers. If lawyers see big dollar $$$$$$$ easy work they’ll take the case. If too complicated forget it. You have to take americrap honda to court. Go to your local court web site and find out how. Download complaint forms. Get repair estimates + court fee. File complaints with california consumer affairs and better business bureau. Teach the fking corporate shitheads a lesson.

  8. ANGEL IN CALIFORNIA says:

    I have a 2014 Honda CRV it vibrate to. I’m going to call the 1866-981-4800. and try to get some help.

    1. angela says:

      did you get help my honda crv is also like that

  9. Khalis says:

    I had a 2015 Honda CRV that had the same problem, they repaired it although it came back at a later time. I upgraded to a 2018 Honda CRV which has the same problem but not as bad as the 2015. I believe it may be the quality of the gasoline. Regular made the 2015 CRV sluggish while premium made it run smoother.

  10. Renva Brunson says:

    I took my car in several times. I called the Honda headquarters too. They worked on the car several times but it still viberates.
