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.

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.

Waiting for a visit from Honda factory rep. Uneven, chalky looking spots in paint on left side of hood near windshield. Local Honda dealer acknowledges paint issues cannot be fixed by detailing/buffing. Believes problem is in the paint itself. Problem to be reviewed by factory rep and (one hopes) repaired (repaint hood?).
