What owners wrote

“The heat on the driver side blows cold air. The windshield on winter does not defrost completely due to cold air on that side it is the heater core that is blocked for the driver side. Passenger side has no issue with heat. I’ve been informed that this is a heater core issue and needs to be flushed and have build up removed on heater core. My vehicle has only 40,000 miles.”

“When it gets cold the windshield washer system freezes and no fluid will come out. I have used fluid certified to -32C and other additives and nothing helps. This seems to be a common problem on CRV of this year and others. Driving at highway speeds and suddenly getting a dirty window from splash back and then not being able to clean it and loose forward visibility is very dangerous.”

“Driver side 's air vent heat vent is not working properly. During winter, the windshield is not fully warm and hard to do defrost. According to Honda, they recognized the issue of heator core and had issued a service bulletin about the issues of heater core problem to remove clogging. It should be recalled to fix the issue rather than making the owner replacing the expensive part. Thank you.”
