2019 HONDA CR-V — Complaint #1671076
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about STRUCTURE:BODY:HOOD:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS filed June 22, 2020
NHTSA complaint #1671076 (ODI reference 11330169) concerns a 2019 HONDA CR-V and was filed on June 22, 2020. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 1, 2019. The vehicle had 3 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Ohio based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as structure:body:hood:hinge and attachments, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HONDA CR-V cohort independently describe similar structure:body:hood:hinge and attachments failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2019 HONDA CR-V shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
