2022 Honda CR-V: steering leads the owner complaints

Owners filed 221 complaints with NHTSA. Steering is by far the most reported area at 50%, followed by forward collision avoidance (19%). No fires and no deaths are reported across any area. Forward collision avoidance stands out because, despite fewer reports than steering, it is tied to the most injuries (3) of any area, so the driver-assist features are worth testing carefully.
