When you're out on the roads, you want to be sure that your vehicle can keep stay in control under a variety of weather and road conditions. That's exactly what Honda's AWD system does. The Honda Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System is designed to provide superior traction at all times, so you can remain confident no matter what you're facing on the roads. Let's explore this system. Understanding the Honda Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System How Does the System Work? Under normal driving conditions, power sent to the front wheels (front-wheel drive) is sufficient to maintain traction. However, when the roads are wet, icy, or uneven, your front tires can slip, and without any power sent to the rear wheels, there's no backup system to help stabilize the vehicle. Honda's intelligent AWD system is a part-time AWD system. It's designed to deliver additional real-wheel traction when necessary to stabilize your vehicle. The system uses a variety of sensors to continuously monitor steering angle, wheel speed, transmission gear, and other inputs. It proactively distributes an optimal amount of torque to the rear wheels before wheel slip is significant, thus preventing high-risk scenarios. When rear-wheel torque is no longer needed, the system automatically routes power back to the front wheels only, helping the vehicle to conserve fuel. What Vehicles Have it? Not all Honda models have the Real-Time AWD system. Currently, only the 2025 CR-V and HR-V have it available. The HR-V comes standard in front-wheel drive and has Real Time AWD as an available option in all trims. The CR-V has the same setup, with the exception of the Sport Touring Hybrid trim, which offers standard AWD. How Does Real-Time AWD Differ From Other Systems? Real-Time AWD differs from traditional full-time AWD systems, as Honda's system only sends power to the rear wheels when it's needed, and reverts back to FWD when it's not. Other systems that have a constant 50/50 or variable split of torque typically have reduced fuel efficiency. Several of Honda's vehicles, such as the Pilot, Passport, and Ridgeline, use a different kind of AWD system called the i-VTM4 AWD system. It can distribute torque not just between the front and rear axles, but between the left and right rear wheels too. This improves traction in more demanding conditions and terrain. Honda's Real Time AWD system ​uses intelligent technology to give you ​reliable traction when needed, and superior efficiency ​when not.

Your brakes are one of your Honda's most essential safety features, as they enable you to control your speed at any time. Brake components can wear out or get damaged, and this affects your Honda's braking ability. As your Honda dealer, we'd like you to know some of the signs that you need to visit us for a brake repair. Signs You Need a Brake Repair at Your Honda Dealer Soft Brake Pedal The braking system contains braking fluid, and this fluid is highly pressurized. High pressure is essential, as the average weight of a Honda is approximately 4,100 lbs, and the braking system must force it to stop moving almost instantly when you hit the brakes. You can feel the pressure inside the system as resistance when you press down on the pedal. If you step on the brake pedal and you feel little resistance, you have a serious brake problem. The lack of resistance means there is either a leak in the system and brake fluid is draining out, or there's an air bubble in the braking system. The lack of resistance means your brakes will be slower to respond than they should be and could even fail. We'll find and fix the cause of the problem. Overheating Brake Fluid When you hit the brakes, the pressurized brake fluid is forced into the brake hoses and lines. Once you take your foot off the brakes, the fluid is withdrawn. If you have to ride your brakes, for example, you're driving downhill or are stuck in traffic, the brake fluid is kept in the hoses and lines. The pressure in the system generates heat, and this can cause the fluid to overheat. If you smell a foul burning chemical smell, your brake fluid could be overheating. If this happens, we advise pulling over ASAP and allowing your brakes to cool. Driving with overheating brake fluid is dangerous, as it loses its ability to generate hydraulic pressure. Without this pressure, your brakes are likely to fail. We'll examine your braking system to determine any other cause for the overheating fluid. Visible Damage Most of the braking system can only be seen from underneath your car. You can, however, see several of its vital systems by looking through the spokes of your wheels. If you kneel, you can see the flat rotor behind each wheel, the brake caliper that's positioned above the rotor, and the brake pads inside the brake calipers. If you use a flashlight, you might see signs of damage like a jammed caliper, scouring on the rotor, or even a small leak from a worn hose. Our technicians can more closely examine the system and repair any problems we find. If your brakes are slow to respond, or show any other signs of trouble, call us ASAP at Rick Roush Honda.

You're at your Honda dealer looking at the car of your dreams and all ready to buy. Except you haven't secured any financing yet. You know you can go to your bank and get a car loan from them, but your dealership also offers financing. So, which should you choose? We're going to give you four good reasons to stay at your dealership and obtain your car financing there. 1. It's Convenient You're already at your dealership looking at cars, so why make an extra trip to go to the bank? Even if you talk to your bank before your car search, the time it takes to contact them again when you're ready to buy means you could lose out on the car you've found. Besides, when you secure your loan from your bank or other financial institution, you have to do all the work. At your dealership, they're ready with the paperwork and have done all the work for you. 2. You're More Likely To Get a Loan If you have bad credit, your bank isn't likely to give you a loan. And even if your credit is decent and you do get a loan, it's likely to come with high interest rates. However, your car dealership doesn't make their money off of your loan: they make it off of the actual car sale. This means they're a lot more likely to take a chance on you and offer you a loan. 3. You'll Be Offered More Flexible Terms When you get a loan from your bank, the payment terms are likely set out for you and will often come with a set interest rate. Dealerships tend to offer very generous loan terms and interest rates to get customers in the door. 4. You'll Get Some Loan Amount Flexibility Your bank will give you a set amount for your loan and unless you want to re-apply or come up with more money yourself, that's the amount you have to work with. However, often you'll find a vehicle that's perfect for you that's slightly above the amount you have, or you want some additional features added on. Securing your loan through your dealership means you can apply for the amount you need when you go to purchase your dream car. At Rick Roush Honda, our goal is to give you an interactive tour of our inventory and get you a quote. Our friendly staff will then happily schedule a test drive, answer any questions you may have, and help you apply for financing. Visit Rick Roush Honda online today to take an interactive tour and start your vehicle buying journey.

The alternator is the center of your Honda's electrical charging system. It produces electricity, which is then transported to all your car's systems and devices. If your alternator is worn or damaged, your Honda dealer can fix the problem. These are a few signs that you may need an alternator repair very soon. Signs You Need an Alternator Repair at Your Honda Dealer Burning Smells As the alternator ages, it gradually becomes weaker. Components start to wear out or fail, and the alternator won't produce the level of electricity it once did. When your alternator can't produce enough power the electrical shortfall will become apparent. Signs of a lack of electricity in your car's headlights becoming dim, frequent electrical glitches, and other issues. When the alternator can't produce enough power, your car's computer will instruct it to work harder. The alternator will spin faster to try and generate more power, but a worn alternator will quickly start to produce a strong burning smell. This smell is caused by the metal heating up as it struggles to produce electricity. Our technicians will examine your alternator and replace it if it's worn out. Flickering Headlights Headlight bulbs have a varied lifespan depending on the type of bulb. When a headlight bulb starts to fail, it will usually flicker for a while before it finally burns out. These bulbs can also flicker if the electrical supply they receive isn't stable. Bulbs require a constant and consistent power supply to operate correctly. If your alternator is wearing out, the power it supplies will drop. Your car's computer will have to adjust the power supplied to each component to maximize the usage of the available electricity. This can result in fluctuations in the amount of power supplied to the headlights, and they will flicker as a result. We can test your alternator for you. If your alternator is failing, we'll install a new one to fix the problem. Damaged Belt Tensioner The alternator is powered by the movement of the serpentine belt. This belt is connected to the crankshaft, and it runs across a series of pulleys. As the crankshaft turns, the belt moves and causes the pulleys to spin. One of these pulleys is connected to the alternator, which produces electricity in response to the movement of the serpentine belt. The belt is maintained at a constant tension by the belt tensioner. If the belt is too loose, it can slip off the pulleys. A belt that's too tight could snap. If the belt tensioner is damaged, the belt won't move at a consistent rate. This slows down the movement of the alternator and accepts your car's electrical supply. We'll examine the belt tensioner and adjust or replace it depending on the situation. If you suspect a problem with your alternator, call our service department at Rick Roush Honda.

A well-maintained transmission allows you to get the best performance from your Honda's engine. A worn or damaged transmission, in contrast, can result in an expensive repair or even cause an accident. As your Honda dealer in Medina, OH, we'd like you to know a few signs you could have a problem and you need to visit us for a transmission repair. Signs You Need a Transmission Repair at Your Honda Dealer Slipping Gears Your Honda transmission is designed to change gears on the instructions of your transmission computer. Once the gear changes, your transmission will remain in that gear until it's shifted again by the computer. A slipping gear occurs when the transmission unexpectedly shifts gear by itself. This can be very dangerous, as the gear usually slips into its previous position. A transmission that's slipping makes driving unsafe, as you no longer have full control over your car. Your Honda has a safety feature for this event, and the computer will shift to a single gear and prevent shifting to any gear other than the park gear. This is a temporary solution, but it allows you to reach our service department so our expert technicians can find the cause of the problem and repair it. Transmission Won't Shift No driver thinks about their transmission shifting gears, as it happens automatically. As you drive and speed changes, the transmission computer shifts the gears flawlessly up or down. A transmission that suddenly fails to move is a major problem. If the transmission won't respond, your Honda won't be able to move even if the engine is running perfectly. A non-responsive transmission can be annoying or dangerous, depending on whether it happens when you start your engine or if you're driving when it suddenly occurs. The transmission's failure could be caused by a failed transmission computer, a faulty solenoid, a blocked transmission filter, or a broken sensor. We'll examine your transmission, identity the exact cause, and repair it. Dragging Clutch Around 3% of cars have a manual transmission, and a dragging clutch could be the bane of their lives. When you step on the clutch pedal in a manual, this movement releases the clutch disk from the flywheel and enables you to shift gears. If you have a dragging clutch, the clutch disk won't disengage, and you'll hear an awful grinding sound from the gears as you try and move the gear shift. A dragging clutch is usually caused by a slack clutch cable that reduces the leverage between the clutch pedal and the clutch disk. We'll check the cable and tighten it or install a new one if it's damaged. If you have any problem with your transmission, call us ASAP at Rick Roush Honda.

To keep your Honda engine lubricated, protected, and running efficiently, a regular Honda oil change from the qualified technicians at your Honda dealer is crucial. Routine oil changes will improve your engine's performance and ensure that your Civic, Accord, or Pilot always performs at its best. Honda Oil Change: How Long Has It Been Since Your Honda's Last Oil Change? Oil Change Intervals Oil lubricates your engine and prevents friction and wear. Over time, the oil becomes contaminated and ceases to protect your engine. The result is high fuel consumption and poor engine performance. Routine oil and filter changes at the factory-recommended intervals are crucial to prevent engine damage and ensure your Honda is fuel-efficient and on the road longer. Generally, Honda recommends changing the oil in your car every 3,000 miles or six months if you drive an older vehicle and every 7,500 miles or six months for 2008 and later models. Check your owner's manual for your model's factory-recommended oil change intervals. Operating Conditions Various factors influence how often your car will need an oil change, such as the engine type, model, age, and conditions under which you operate your vehicle. If you drive your Honda under severe conditions, your car will need new oil more often. Severe driving conditions include driving in heavy traffic, on rough roads, towing heavy loads, and taking regular short trips. Ask your Honda technician for more information on driving conditions and to assist you with the best oil change schedule for your model and driving conditions. The Correct Oil and Filters Using the proper oil grade and the right filters for your Honda is vital to keep your engine well-lubricated and clean. Honda Genuine Oil is blended explicitly for Honda vehicles and tested to ensure extra protection and lubrication for optimal engine performance. Genuine Honda filters prevent harmful contaminants from reaching your engine. The information for the correct grade of oil for your model is in your owner's manual, or ask your Honda technician to assist you in choosing the right oil for your model's engine. Oil Change Specials Your dealer offers excellent money-saving deals on services and parts. Check their website for specials and coupons to save on your next oil change or maintenance service. You can also speak to one of the service consultants for more information. Convenient Appointment Scheduling Scheduling an oil change is easy and convenient.

A service consultant will contact you promptly to arrange a time that best suits you.
