Some issues have been noted with the battery draining quickly, even when the alternator is functioning properly. Problems have also been reported with the battery struggling to start in cold winter weather, potentially due to power loss in low temperatures. Various indications suggest that it may be time to replace your car's battery, such as the engine light being on, corroded connectors, sluggish engine starting, and unpleasant odors emitting from the battery. Typically, a Honda CR-V battery should last between 3 to 5 years, but this can vary based on driving behaviors, battery size, and weather conditions. Battery prices range from around $125 to $250. Prior to replacing the battery, it is advisable to have it checked at a service center.
This is probably the same problem with power drain in a class action lawsuit situation. Regrettably, my 2014 car has gone through four batteries this year. It seems to be an issue with the battery manufacturer using the same faulty cell. Although the alternator has been checked, the conclusion was that the electric seat switch was the problem. Today, I'm replacing the battery once more and hoping it will hold up until the semiconductor shortage ends, allowing me to purchase a Toyota.
If your 2014 Honda CRV is experiencing battery problems, there could be several reasons behind it. A faulty alternator or a damaged battery cable can prevent the battery from charging properly. Another possibility is a dead battery itself. Any of these issues can result in electrical problems or prevent the vehicle from starting.
