Why does my Honda CRV engine not accelerate?
If your CR-V won’t accelerate, but the RPM’s go up it’s usually not going to be an engine related issue. Somehow, the power that your engine is creating is not making it to the rear wheels. This is typically a transmission related issue. Here are the most common cause of acceleration with the RPM’s going up:

2012 and newer have a limit RPM to less than 2000 RPM when the brake is engaged – I suspect that when you are going uphill the brake switch is engaging and you are limited to 1800 rpms. To prove this – when you go uphill, use your left foot to raise the brake pedal from behind, if you get acceleration, your brake switch needs adjusting.

Why is my Honda CRV losing power?
Could Be the Brake Override System,” posted in September 2011. The brake override system (BOS) is designed to cut engine power if you have one foot on the gas pedal and the other on the brake at the same time. The system thinks you’re trying to slow down the vehicle so it cuts engine power to prevent accidental acceleration.
Why does my Honda CRV shake when I release the accelerator?
When you are accelerating the torque from the transmission puts stress on the axles which now become a part of the drive train’s power. When you release the accelerator there is no pressure, or torque on the axles, no power load, so there would be no vibrations felt.
