Two things the counts carry that are not the car: how many of each year were sold, and how long each has been on the road — an older year out-counts a newer one before anything is wrong with it. The share column is the honest comparison across years: what part of that year’s complaints named the lane-keeping system. Nothing here is a rate.
When the lane-keeping complaints were filed, and at what mileage

Across the model years, half of the 29 owners who gave an odometer reading reported the lane-keeping problem between 6,000 and 45,000 miles. A median of reports, not the life of a part.

Source: NHTSA complaint database, recalls and manufacturer communicationsWhich Honda CR-V years have the most lane-keeping complaints?
2023, 53; 2024, 37; 2021, 17. Raw counts, and an older year has had longer to collect them; by share of each year's own complaints the loudest is the 2024 (8%).
Is there a recall for the lane-keeping system on the Honda CR-V?
No recall campaign is filed under this heading on any of these model years. A bulletin is not a recall: it carries no federal duty to repair for free.
When do lane-keeping problems show up on the Honda CR-V?
Owners who gave an odometer reading reported it at a median of 31,000 miles across the model years; half of them between 6,000 and 45,000. That is when reports cluster, not the life of a part.
What does NHTSA's "Lane Departure" heading cover?
Lane departure warning and lane-keeping assist. Owners choose the heading when they file, so it says which area of the vehicle the complaint is about, not which part failed.
