2018 Honda CR-V 4dr SUV

turbocharged 190hp 1.5L I4 CVT FWD

2000 mi Info display started blinking on and off for several minutes. Brightness control was jumping all around to different settings. Only way to stop the issue was to stop the vehicle and reset by turning it off. Honda is aware of the issue, but has not issued a software fix despite the problem occuring on multiple CRVs for the last year and a half. 
52000 mi 2nd battery change on vehicle. Battery replacement interval appears to be 2 years.

Car fan not blowing very well and not blowing cold. Dealer replaced compressor and a few other parts (shaft seal). Warranty paid for repair. 
34000 mi

US $1450
Car AC not blowing very cold and not blowing very well. Dealer did freon recharge with dye for $500 to “locate leak”. Dealer could not locate leak, acknowledged freon was low but couldn’t diagnose. After leaving and driving a bit problem is still exactly the same. 
51000 mi Not fixed. The screen glitches out - the last time it occurred it started by skipping songs on around on iTunes and when I removed the phone from the cable the iTunes played just fine, however the screen kept glitching and changed it from nothing/apple play to the radio. I have researched this and it seems to be an ongoing issue without a fix and Honda unfortunately has not issued a recall or provided an actual fix for this. I am grateful I don't have the fuel in the gas but this is rather freaky when driving.
