Shock Absorber Pair for the 2017–2022 Honda CR-V

What 2017–2022 CR-V owners report about the suspension

Owners have filed 11 complaints with NHTSA, the US federal vehicle-safety regulator, that mention the shocks on the 2017–2022 Honda CR-V, and 24 filed under its suspension. Those 11, by model year, as of September 18, 2026:

• 2017 CR-V: 5 complaints
• 2018 CR-V: 3 complaints
• 2019 CR-V: 1 complaint
• 2020 CR-V: none
• 2021 CR-V: 1 complaint
• 2022 CR-V: 1 complaint

NHTSA publishes complaints as owners wrote them and does not verify them, so read them as a pattern rather than a diagnosis.

A 2022 CR-V owner, NHTSA complaint 11699241: "While driving at a normal speed (55mph) on I-5 north in Bellingham, WA when the sunroof on my Honda CR-V imploded. It sounded like a very loud gunshot. The shock of the incident startled my passenger and I and I immediately began looking her over to see if there was any blood."

Recalls that cover the shock absorber pair on the 2017–2022 CR-V

As of September 18, 2026, NHTSA lists no recall on the 2017–2022 Honda CR-V whose defect is in the shock absorber pair. If your car has a warning light or a symptom that a recall could explain, check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls anyway — it takes a minute.

Which shock absorber pair a 2017–2022 CR-V takes

Shocks differ by drivetrain, by ride height, and by whether the trim carries an off-road or sport package. The 2017–2022 Honda CR-V came with several powertrains, among them 1.5L I4 CVT AWD and 2.4L I4 CVT FWD. That is why we ask for the VIN, or the year, engine and trim, and confirm the part against it before you pay rather than after it arrives.
