Stalling on other CR-V years
Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2014, 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026.
What this problem usually is
Stalling reports are some of the most alarming on the site. The engine quits while the car is moving, sometimes on a highway and sometimes at a stop. Many owners say it restarted right away and the dealer found no stored code, which is part of why these complaints pile up before anything gets fixed.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the fuel pump (38 reports), the battery (11 reports) and the ignition coil or plugs (6 reports).
Recalls and investigations
3 recalls on the fuel and propulsion cover the 2019 model year. A recall on the same system isn't always the same failure, so read the defect text.
The fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail.
The low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail.
The joint weld between the fuel tank and the vapor return line may have been insufficiently welded, causing the weld to fail.

Is this a known problem?
The manufacturer has sent NHTSA 1 service bulletin or notice for the 2019 Honda CR-V that deal with this problem. Newest first.
Federal rules make a manufacturer send NHTSA a copy of any notice about a defect that goes to more than one dealer or owner. Most of these are service bulletins, the repair instructions manufacturers send to dealers. NHTSA generally leaves safety recall bulletins out of this file, and recalls are listed separately.
Due to swelling of the fuel pump motor impeller, the fuel pump may seize and stop working. If this occurs, the check engine light may be displayed with DTC P0087 (Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low) stored, the engine may not start, or the engine could stall while ...
What owners wrote
“Turbo failure on the highway caused loss of power and significantly reduced acceleration. The car only had 59,930 miles on it. Now we are getting a repair quote from a Honda dealer to replace the turbo for over $4,500 with no guarantee it will fix the problem.”

“Ever since the fuel pump was replaced by the recall, the car has had a delayed start. Recently the car started but when pit in drive the car stalls. The car does not reliably run, and can stall at any moment.. We have been informed by the dealership that it is now the fuel pump motor that has failed. Seems to me that this is part of the same problem.”

“My 2019 CRV stopped running in the middle of the road. The car stalled and every warning light came on. It wouldnât restart and had to be towed. Based on research it is the fuel injectors. Honda knows about the problem and wonât do a recall. Others have said parts are on back order.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 1 of 95 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
