Honda CR-V

"torn boots"

"Pictures showed the CV joints were broken and unsafe to drive. Total cost with some other repairs and maintenance item was over $1300. I wanted to keep this car as long as possible so I considered it worth the investment although the car may not be worth that much any more."

"When driving about 40 mph at random times the front wheels will start to violently shudder like driving over rumble strips but taking foot off throttle it stops and resumes normal driving. Mechanics at Honda garage are unable to replicate or diagnose problem"

""The car had started making an unusual creaking sound, and I knew that the electric fans on the radiator werent working. so I took it to the garage. He fixed those two issues, but what I wasnt expecting was brake trouble. He showed me that the rear pads had worn unevenly, and the rotors, now deeply gouged, should be replaced. All three repairs were done. Also had a tire with a leaky valve stem AND a puncture, but I decided not to spend money fixing that. Time to buy a new set of tires.""

"They pulsed when applying brakes"

""The routers on this car have to be replaced twice a year, they continuously rust away.""

"The car has an engine light on that comes and goes and it has to do with Intake Manifold Rotary Valve Assembly"

"Upper tailgate hinge broke (probably because spare tire is mounted on back). Problem not yet resolved."

"Flickers continuously. This problem persists regardless of several dealer shop visits."

"Flickers continuously. This problem persists regardless of several dealer shop visits."

"Clips on the roof rails have started to break - dry rot due to exposure to the elements (sun and heat mainly). Pain to replace."

""tHE RUST IS REALLY BAD INSIDE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, WHEN REMOVING A BOLT IT IS SO FROZEN IT JUST BRAKES WHEN REMOVING THEM.The car shakes intermittently and have brought it in 3 times only to be told no problem found. Tried many ways to resolve , last is to try replacing the transmission fluid 2 times after 100 miles on the first change.""

""The oil leak took over three tries to fix. Apparently its a little seal that isnt obvious, but does occur in this iteration of the CRV""

"Found at vehicle service inspection. We saw no oil but service said it was a major leak. It has not been repaired."

""Wiring to door speakers must be loose or shorting. I have been told that when the electric start was installed, created the problem.""

"Transmission started "slipping" between 1st and 2nd after vehicle warmed up. Finally got "stuck" between gears and left me stranded in downtown Atlanta at night. Called for a full rebuild. Still has a slight jerk at times, but that's on the mechanic service I used (not a dealer). I had over 200K miles on my last Honda - 5 speed manual - and never had an issue. I even had the original clutch on that one. I'm surprised this transmission failed."
