Honda CR-V

"Very smooth transmission."

"The 4 cylinder engine is standard and explodes when acceleration is needed. Very peppy car! The steering is very positive and easy to control in cornering and parking."

"Reliability and good acceleration It shifts gears very smoothly"

"Good, don't expect high performance, just reliable and safe transportationfor the money."

"Acceleration is very smooth, electronic cruise control resume is slow and controlled. Handling is superb."

"the acceleration is almost dangerous in this vehicle (i.e. there is none so need to be careful when passing others). Around town, acceleration is not that important since passing is not usually done"

"What stands out the most to me is the fact that it is reliable, comfortable, and trouble-free."

"Has very good handling and acceleration"

"V6 motor - good acceleration. bad - poor MPG"

"good acceleration. Turns on a dime and a great ride."

"Acceleration braking and handling are all good but not great. But considering the age of the vehicle this is not a complaint. The car doesn't have any of the safety features found on new vehicles, but most were not available on most vehicles when we purchased this one."

"Stable handling, smooth shifting transmission, well modulated brkes."

"Very smooth accelerating. Easy to steer at highway speeds."

"Love the handling, accelerating and braking."

"The CR-V handles well for the type of vehicle that it is. However it needs more power and the transmission shifts constantly as a result. Due to the engine's lack of torque it downshifts to maintain speed even on minor inclines and when any acceleration is needed."

"I turn off AC if I feel I need more accelleration"

"Very zippy and responsive handling."

"This CR-V EXL Navi with 4wd, is one solid little SUV, even after 10 years of ownership and 96000 miles. Its only downsides are its gas mileage (21-22 avg.) and it's shortness of power at 165 hp. A Turbo would make this vehicle just about as perfect as you could get for a small SUV. I throw the little car around like a sports car on the hilly and mountainous roads it has encountered. Only once in its life has the 4wd system actually kicked in, and that was in floorboard deep snow in the California Sierras."

"all around great car in all c,imate conditions and very reliable, and comfortable.."

"worst acceleration since by co-owned 48 Ford"

"Only available in 4 cylinder which, in some circumstances, seems underpowered."

"With this being a larger vehicle, we need to take turns with some caution as it feels like, on occasion, like it it top heavy and might tilt. Acceleration is more than adequate and handles well in stop and go situations."

"good acceleration and handles well for a little all wheel drive. absolutely no problems with driving this little car."

"very nice drives"

"Poor acceleration, low gas mileage"

"driving is great and easy to handle in tight spots"

"Overall, the car has good handling and decent power, though it is not overpowered. For that reason, it has pretty good gas mileage. We have had some issues since we bought this with oil leaking into one of the cylinders, which has caused misfiring and loss of power on hills."

"Very fun to drive curving roads in this car. Also fast acceleration when needed as when entering the freeway."

"Lots of power... be careful or you'll be flying down the interstate."

"Nothing"

"Handling is actually almost sporty and the acceleration while adequate is a little bit lacking."

"The CR-V drives very well. It accelerates and handles with no issues."

"it does not accelerate as fast as I'd like."

"The 4 cylinder engine is just too small for the size and weight of the car. really needs a 6 cylinder engine. I think the 4 also hurts the gas mileage because it's under powered."

"easy to drive, dependable hope to keep it for another 100000"

"total reliability"

"Good value for the money and comfortable driving"

"Love the driver,s vision. Seat high enough for me to see easily."

"Drives just like a car"

"Used to have a 2001 Honda Civic 3-door and LOVED it!! So, the CR-V seems very sluggish to me, but it does the job and handles well in most situations. It isn't a sports vehicle, after all. I test drove other makes and models prior to purchasing this vehicle and obviously felt that this car was better than the others (i.e., Toyota RAV-4, Mazda CX-5, Hyundai Santa Fe, Chevy Equinox)."

"For a four cylinder engine, it can accelerate well when needed. My previous car was a 1993 Honda Accord wagon with manual transmission, so any comparison to my CR-V is irrelevant."

"The CRV handles very well on the road and in bad weather(snow. I was used to a 6 cylinder engine prior to this purchase, so it took a while for me to get used to the 4 cylinder. Acceleration is a little slow at times."

"Handles well and has plenty of pep when needed."

"Acceleration is very good. But starting from a stop on wet roads is challenging as the front wheels spin especially when turning right."

"For a 10 year old cat it accelerates wonderfully."

"goods acceleration and comfort for a family sedan"

"The car is the most maneuverable vehicle I've had. Acceleration is great, it jumps when I press the accelerator."

"Road noise is terrible"

"We dropped from a 6-cylinder to a 4-cylinder engine when we bought our CR-V and were worried that acceleration wouldn't be adequate--we needn't have worried. We have taken many trips to Florida, Arizona, Colorado, Wisconsin, etc. and have felt very comfortable on the expressways, in the cities, etc. with the performance of the CR-V."

"The Honda rides rough."

"Acceleration is almost too good -- very responsive."

"Acceleration is good, but not outstanding. In hilly country, transmission changes gears frequently, and frequently hunts for correct gear."

"I love the quick acceleration and pretty nimble handling for an SUV. Handles exceptionally well in snow."

"Can be a bit pokey in its acceleration, brakes a bit touchy, but she corners well, good feel of the road."

"As mentioned, it accelerates well for my driving style and needs. Moves well in traffic and is great to park in many situations."

"Quick acceleration."

"Has good acceleration and handles well."

"This car is a little "tippy" - you cannot change lanes quickly. Also - the visibility to your right side when changing lanes in limited toward the back, regardless of how you position the mirrors."

"Good acceleration; easy traffic merge; seems secure and sure footed."

"Fairly peppy. Drives well in snow."

"Kind of a slow car and a little heavy in handling too."

"It accelerates well for a smaller engine, and is quiet and efficient. It handles corners well, and is comfortable and easy to drive."

"Great handling. Good pickup for four cylinder SUV. Good in wet weather."

"Great performing small car. Will travel through snow better than 4x4 trucks"

"Average acceleration but will go through and over snow drifts to the point I filled the engine compartment full of snow and it kept going. Handling is good and its dependable."

"The acceleration and handling are ok this is no sports car."

"This vehicle is fun to toss around as long as you don't forget it's a CUv sitting high above its wheels. Squirt and go steering make back road enjoyable as well as local driving fun. Only complaint is road noise entering the cabin at highway speeds. May change to ultra quiet tired when I replace them."

"The acceleration is good, but it is not as peppy as the Mazda. It handles well and is easy to drive. There was no learning curve when we purchased it. However, it does not have all the bells and whistles that the newer cars have, so in that respect it is dated."

"adequate acceleration, gas mileage could be better"

"Good engine power and handling is responsive. This is driven by our youngest driver, and we feel that she is higher up, the she can have enough power when entering the highway and accident avoidance if needed."

"The steering and handling has not been good since we bought the car. It has always been very loose. We were told by the dealer there was no problem."

"No issues. The CR-V accelerates and handles well."

"great handling in snow"

"It's pretty good overall, comparing the hondas 4 cylinder to a 6 cyl a definite difference but the 4 is fine as it is"

"Very good acceleration and handling. Does very well in snow."

"For long trips it's very comfortable and handles well in mountainous areas. It has plenty of pick-up when needed."

"For a not very sporty car, the CRV handles really well on mountain roads and has good acceleration entering a freeway or maneuvering in traffic."

"Acceleration is poor and no one seems to be able to align it correctly anymore-it constantly pulls to the right."

"Especially like the mileage, by being light on the accelerator, we exceed posted mpg. Rides comfortable and is responsive when needed."

"needs a bit more power"

"Reliability and versatility"

"Good handling"

"it does not turn as I would expect on slippery roads/winter conditions. when skidding, you have to get off the brake and give it gas to get out of the skid, counterintuative."

"Fun to drive like a little jeep"

"It is perfect for me, b/c I am short and my husband is taller, it makes for easier handling for both of us."

"good acceleration and handling"

"Excellent drive control and handling, even after 120000 miles"

"Very dependable after 8yrs and still fun to drive."

"When you accelerate and somewhere when it hits about 25 rpms, there is a high pitch noise. I took it in, but folks at the dealership could not hear it (nor my husband). My daughter and other female friends have noticed this as well."

"It has lived up to its promises. I still get wonderful gas mileage and everything works. I have a recall on my air bags and Honda has given me a rental to use until the parts come in for my auto."

"It's awkward in reverse."

"Acceleration with the 4 cylinder engine needs improving, especially when passing cars on the open road."

"satisfied"

"Drives great!"

"Very comfortable for long rides and gets great milage on highway. Very little maintenance"

"This is actually a very well built and fun car to drive. I like to throw it around like a sports car at times. Being a 4wd the gas mileage isn't the greatest (about 21 mpg avg., 28 mpg the best). The only real negative here is the lack of power. That little 4 banger really works well, no problems whatsoever, but if there were ever a car that needed, or could use, a turbo, this is it. After 8 years of driving in all weather conditions and roads, it is still a solid, rattle-less, squeak-less"

"underpowered"

"the acceleration is very adequate for regular driving in town and driving on the freeways."

"This vehicle drives and accelerates extremely well. It is an excellent around town car."

"Padding in the front seats is breaking down.Seats are not as comfortable.There has always been a bit of a noise (air) when driving..The ride is still good but my husband.is thinking of replacing the struts.They are still original ."

"The seats are very comfortable, with multiple adjustment options. The ride is a little stiff, but stable. The road noise level in the cabin is a little louder than preferred."

"Lot of road noise. Stiff suspension."

"Our model has leather, heated seats which are great in the winter. The ride is very solid and comfortable for a smaller SUV. Back seat passengers ride very comfortably. The interior is well appointed and quiet."

"Seats are stiff and are uncomfortable on extended trips. Also my right knee rests against the hard plastic center console. Finally the gas pedal isn’t located properly resulting in pain in my right ankle."

"I call it my little dune buggy. It is choppy over bumps and can be loud on hwy. Leather seats are showing their age now."

"It behaves exactly as I would want and expect a Honda to behave. I get in, start it, drive where ever I planned to go and return home when I'm finished - whether minutes, hours or days later. I don't feel any concern about reliability, comfort, etc., regardless of distance - whether it's a mile up the road or several hundred miles away."

"Road noise is heard, not loudly."

"Leather seats with lumbar make for good comfort"

"Good for long rides."

"Without electronic seat controls, it can be difficult to get the driver's seat into the optimal position."

"perfectly adequate, nothing super"

"The seats are uncomfortable due to no lumbar support, poor positioning and cushions that are disintegrating into a sticky powder leaving minimal padding. The engine and transmission and road/wind noise are quite loud."

"We find the ride in the CR-V stiff and noisy. On rough roads, we get tossed around a good bit. Door closings are not "crisp" but have a cheap, echoing sound. We expect a bit more solid feel from Honda."

"Granted my CRV is 10 years old but it is and has always been a bit of a loud right and not real smooth on the road. However, it’s very dependable and when I get a new auto, it’ll be a CRV."

"Seat adjustment is not adequate for my tall son."

"The driver's seat is more comfortable than my 2014 CRV. The ride is a little abrupt on bumps due to the short wheel base. There is entirely too much road noise (in spite of my quiet-rated tires)."

"The front seats are not as comfortable as the earlier generation of CR-V."

"Seats are not comfortable for long drives and the road noise gets worse as the car ages."

"good seats ride on the harsh side too much road noise"

"The seats are uncomfortable."

"Very smooth ride, low noise , comfortable seats."

"It’s a little noisy - road noise, wind, etc."

"Easy to enter/exit"

"Absolute Reliability"

"Seats comfortable. Ride average for an SUV. Noise worse than average."

"Seats are far less comfortable than previous car. Road Noise is more than desired. Ride is not as smooth as desired."

"Road noise is horrible...so loud. Built in bolster on side of seats hits me in a very uncomfortable place on my thigh...I use a pillow to fill in the seat area to raise me up off of the bolster. Had to have the armrests recovered due to premature wear."

"The seats are very comfortable. My back never gets tired when I drive. There is a fair amount of road noise. The ride is not great but I have never changed the shocks so that is probably part of the issue."

"The seats are extremely comfortable. It's made some noises over the 10 years we've owned the 2008 Honda CR-V. One such noise turned out to be the tires; we found out when we had new tires installed. Other noises are new and have not yet been identified."

"Seats are comfortable, less road noise would be nice."

"Black leather seats are not a good idea in south Florida."

"high level of road noise"

"Seat cushions for front bottom fell apart and collapsed after about five years."

"Hear a lot of road noise; not very quiet."

"Noisy ride. Back seats are hard. I like the way the seats in the front are set up and I like the arm rests. There is a nice amount of head room in the drivers seat. I don’t feel like my forehead is going to touch the windshield, which is how I feel in non suv vechicles"

"somewhat noisy ride, was not able to pick handling, but the vehicle is front end light on the fwd model which is not good in heavy rain or snow more than a couple inches."

"Excellent vehicle all around and all wheel drive is superb in our wintery times where our ls430 leaves much to be desired with snow on the roads.( Rear wheel drive ( never again)"

"Road noise is annoying."

"Comfort-many positions of electric seat & heated seats"

"The noise level in my CR-V is high when driving at normal highway speeds. This is the only thing I do not like about this car. Have had it for 10 years and the only non routine problem I have ever had with it is the air conditioning system."

"The seats are comfortable. The vehicle is quiet. The ride is relatively smooth."

"We didn't get leather seats, so the fabric that Honda chose to use isn't particularly pleasant to the under side of your arm on short or long trips."

"Comfortable in front and back seats"

"Seats for driver and passenger both comfortable and supportive. I am 5' 10" and normal weight and the driver's seat fits me very well."

"The seats are very comfortable and overall we are very satisfied with the car. The ride could be smoother, as the CR-V seems to find every crack and bump in the road. Not usually a problem. Only an issue when my elderly mother is in the car."

"I find the road noise loud and must turn up the radio once on the road. Also, the seat is very firm."

"Wife loves the seat adjustment for driving and the open view"

"satisfied"

"Vehicle is comfortable with lots of storage options in the doors, dash, and center console. Ride is smooth, but there's a lot of wind noise. I play the stereo louder than I'd like to compensate. Powered lumbar support and the seat heater both failed in the driver's seat."

"Car has become quite noisy (road noise)"

"Car has bit of noise on the road. The overall ride is good but not as comfortable as in our 2001 Toyota Avalon."

"Comfortable ride. Could improve on road noise."

"very comfortable to drive in. roomy in front. ride is smooth"

"There are multiple adjustments to the seats that make a trip of 75 to 125 miles comfortable without stopping for a little exercise, this includes both the drivers and passengers side.. Low road noise. Gas tank is too small, 14 gallons. Some features like the all wheel drive system could be a little easer to understand. I have to look them up in the vehicles operating manual to remember how to work the them.."

"Not quite as comfortable as a larger car."

"The seat fabric shows all kinds of spots."

"high road noise"

"Cabin is noisy."

"The seats are comfortable and heated but don't heat that well. The vehicle handles well and accelerates well for a four cylinder. There is more road noise than I like."

"The CR-V is noisier than I would like."

"Rides like a truck. Noisy."

"My husband has back problems, so this car really helps him adjust the seats just right for his comfort. An added bonus for us is the heated seats that also help him on long drives to relax his back."

"Back seats are a bit hard and can be uncomfortable on long journeys."

"Front seats need improvement for tall people and general comfort."

"This little CR-V EXL Navi with 4WD, is one fun little car to drive. It is rock solid, quiet, and very comfortable with its leather covered semi sports seats. It is very versatile in its carrying and passenger configurations. The only negative after 10 years of ownership and 96000 miles is its lack of power at 165 hp. A Turbo would be just the thing to launch this vehicle even higher in the ratings."

"Seats are slippery. On deceleration, particularly in hilly terrain, both driver and passenger tend to slide forward in seat and must grip handholds to remain in place."

"Seats are uncomfortable after driving for longer periods. Ride is somewhat rough. Noise level is fine"

"Seats are very hard and can be uncomfortable on a long ride. Road noise is extremely loud."

"Since I am tall, I have to push the driver seat all the way back. However, I find I still don't have enough leg room to be truly comfortable."

"This cr-v has had numerous issues and many recalls and warranty repairs. The seats are sort of comfortable, the ride always noisy."

"Very confortable, safe and great handling. We will always own a CR-V!"

"Have driven cross country several times very comfortably."

"Seats are not very comfortable. The head rest doesn't tilt and the lumbar support is not good. You can feel all bumps on the road. Is not the smoothest riding vehicle but the most dependable I have ever had."

"While my seats are firm they are the most comfortable seat to sit in and operate a vehicle. Seats are way better than in my Lexus LS."

"Too much road noise"

"The Honda rides rough and stiff ride."

"Lots of road noise. Otherwise seats and ride are extremely comfortable. Rear seat leg room is exceptional."

"The ride is firm but comfortable. Handling is great and the car is just the right size for a family of 2, 3 or 4. The only complaint I have had is road noise is very pronounced on gravel type roads. Smooth asphalt or concrete is bearable."

"seats need more lumbar support, fold down center console between front seats is waste of space"

"CR=V is a comfortable little vehicle, but the road noise is sometime obtrusive."

"seats are somewhat hard and uncomfortable"

"Vehicle is quiet and silent running at almost illegal highway speeds. Stereo is clear and crisp from the lowest listening level to rock out levels."

"The seats are fine in the CR-V. I wish that they were a little more cushioned. The CR-V is quiet and rides smoothly."

"Very quiet and comfortable ride"

"Road noise is bad and annoying"

"This is a utilitarian vehicle that handles rough roads without tossing you about and provides seating suitable for long drives."

"It's a good old ladies car. But I don't drive like an old lady. It steers hard. My wife drives it aND she complains about that."

"Very noisy on the highway at speed."

"Noisy ride, can really feel road vibration."

"Ride is bumpy and roush."

"Seats very good. Driving position good. Ride is comfortable but road noise is somewhat intrusive."

"The seats are the most uncomfortable car seats I have ever sat on - like sitting on a phone book."

"As a smaller vehicle, it provides a good driving experience and fits well in most driving and parking situations. It accelerates well for my driving style and handles very well. Holds the road well."

"Car has become quite noisy inside, especially with road noise from rough spots on roads."

"Horrible seats, hard, flat, no lumbar support"

"Seats bother me after about an hour sitting in them."

"Road noise excessive"

"Has stood up well for 8-9 yrs"

"Ride is good at highway speeds on a smooth road. Very choppy ride on local streets at 20-50 mph. Original Bridgestone tires were very bad. Slight improvement with replacement Continentals. Wind noise is very noticeable at highway speeds. Seat comfort is good."

"CR-V LX: Seats become more uncomfortable as a trip lengthens. Seats OK around town, but not comfortable for drives of 300+ miles."

"Tight driving area for tall drivers"

"Easy access getting in and out of vehicle. Good suppor"

"Seats are uncomfortable"

"Armrests very rough on arms , the Noise level Is so great it makes driving very uncomfortable ! Will never purchase a Honda again ."

"great seats, road and wind noise relatively high when compared to newer cars"

"Cabin noise is a problem Comfort is good and leg room while adequate could be better"

"Feel every bump in the road"

"Rear seats are not comfortable on long trips. The front driver seat has premature sagging where the heated seat element is located."

"The seats are quite comfortable. I get quite a bit of road noise in the vehicle."

"Limited leg room. No lumbar support. Too much road noise."

"The seats in the CR-V are not the most comfortable. It rides ok, but prefer to take the truck on long trips."

"Higher than normal road noise; less sound insulation than comparable (e.g., Toyota) models."

"The car rides very smoothly and the seats are very comfortable. Minimum noise."

"Would like to have memory seats. Newer high end model has this feature."

"VERY roomy interior,particularly for back seat passengers. Comfortable in both front and back for adults."

"would like the ride to be smoother when making turns"

"this model does not dampen outside road noise very well -"

"We test drove other vehicles in that class: Nissan, Hyundai, etc. but both my wife and I loved the Honda CRV immediately because of how it seem to fit us more comfortably than the others. It's a great size without being too big or small."

"Seats stiff. Ride somewhat noisy.. Brakes very responsive. Blind spots during shoulder checks.."

"The seats are really uncomfortable with very little cushioning."

"Seats very comfortable, climate control works well, but there is a lot of road noise during highway driving, and the ride is not fabulous."

"Very bad road noise"

"The road noise is loud in this vehicle."

"Ride is a bit crude and noisy"

"Noise level is high"

"Too much road noise."

"Just that there's road noise"

"Cabin seems very noisy. road noise etc."

"The seats are uncomfortable. The headrest is tilted too far forward. The air conditioning system does not work as well as my van."

"noisy interior"

"Road noise on the highway makes it difficult to listen to the audio system."

"Main complaint about comfort is road noise. But I understand that's been improved in newer model years."

"I consider the wind noise while driving at highway speed with windows closed to be excessive."

"SEATs could use a few more adjustments A little noisy inside car"

"The leather seats has remained in almost original condition, driving noise is noticeable, the climate system is adequate, the ride is comfortable."

"Front seats (non leather) are very uncomfortable and not supportive."

"The A/C system is not very good. You already reported this. Reading CR is how I found out Honda would pay for new compressor and clutch. Thank you! The road noise is pronounced and the ride is too choppy."

"interior picks up all the noise from the outside. also the ride can be rought."

"Re call on passenger air bag Not addressed"

"Noise. Rear wheels make a distinctive whoshing sound. Dealer/service dept. unable to make sound go away. Don't know if it's a defect or not. It's annoying."

"Automatic climate control - set it and forget it. We tried several smaller vehicles and this was the only one my wife and I found comfortable regarding seating. On the down side, only the driver's seat is four-way adjustable. The passenger's seat lacks lumbar support."

"This is the "EXL" trim. Ride is harsh, Tire & wind noise; Not as quality sound system (AM/FM/XM/CD) as I hoped. Seats good; dual climate control excellent."

"My biggest issue with the CRV is road and wind noise. The seats are comfortable and the car handles reasonably well for a SUV but the quietness have to improve for me to consider another CRV"

"After 227000 miles the heat and AC still work great, and the seats are super comfortable, even on long drives."

"This vehicle is uncomfortable, noisy and lacks storage. Plus the gas mileage is poor for a small car."

"I wish it was quieter."

"The feel of the road is a bit more noticeable and on other vehicles I've owned."

"Has a lot of road noise = noisy"

"Both front seat cushion started to fall apart after about five years and the passenger rear door lock is erratic."

"I have "leather" seats which are cracking on the side. I was told only the top is leather- the rest is vinyl, hence, the cracking. Also , the seats could be a bit more luxurious i.e, padding, style etc. I would prefer that the second row of seats would fold flat rather than fold against the front seats."

"Road noise still a huge problem with the cr-v. Considering another brand."

"Over the 8 years I've owned this vehicle, I've learned that the way the back seats fold down is not the best. They don't fold flat, but it would have been better if they had."

"This vehicle is noticeably less quiet & A/C is slightly less capable (I've had it serviced to be sure). Ride & seats are fine."

"Road noise is very noticeable"

"Seats are way to short and not comfortable at all and lots of road noise!"

"Seats are sagging and decreasing in comfort, The road noise has been bad from new until now"

"Like s tin can. Can always hear road and wind noise. Passenger tire front always needed air from day one and finally blew when driving on freeway and was at less than 18000 miles. Dealer was always saying there was no tire issue!! Also the promised to install backup beeping device then did not at time of purchase"

"The drivers seat is a little uncomfortable."

"A lot of road noise (some of which may be from the tires),"

"I have always found the seats in the CRV to be hard. and the ride stiff. I know its related to the wheelbase, but there is little cushioning to the ride inside. This is my wife's car, so its not so much an issue for me, except when we take her car rather than the Ridgeline."

"Back seat is uncomfortable."

"Ride is uncomfortable on long road trips. It is also very noisy."

"Seats not comfortable on long trips. That's why we bought the GMC."

"The highway noise is too loud."

"Climate control"

"If I could improve anything on this car it would be the seats. They do not provide good support like my Volvo seats. On long trips my lumbar area burns from lack of support in the CRV seats. This never has happened in my Volvo. Also, a bit quieter ride would be a plus."

"Road noise from tires is bad."

"Comfort, ride & noise - all superior, better than most previous cars owned or driven"

"The seats have no lumbar support and are not comfortable for driving long distance"

"Not enough leg room, road noise"

"Since I don't have much "butt" muscle, I have to sit with a cushion on my seat (the CR-V doesn't have the most comfortable seats)."

"Seats in LX model could more comfortable. Cabin noise is higher than I would like."

"Problems with A/C system. Now on third attempt and a total of $12000 to try to get it fixed. A/C is clearly a weak area in an otherwise acceptable machine."

"The seats are getting more uncomfortable after years of use. Also the leather on driver side armrests have ripped and really wearing. The leather seats do not hold up well and hard to clean. They are very uncomfortable in hot weather and skin sticks to them. Would have chose cloth seats if it was available or better leather."

"They could make the seats as comfortable as the Nissan..."

"The seats are not very comfortable especially for long drives. I think I would buy a new CRV if only the seats were more comfortable."

"the noise factor on the highway could be quieter"

"The car is not well insulated and road noise is lout. Ride quality is very average, feel most all road bumps."

"a little small for tall people"

"Road noise is too loud, especially at freeway speeds.Tried two different sets of tires, including high-grade Michelin tires, but didn't solve the problem."

"The seats themselves provide pretty good support especially for longer trips. Road noise about average and was helped a lot from better tires (which I bought based on recommendation from Consumer Reports)."

"Several features inside are lacking in convenience or space consideration. Very little hidden storage inside."

"Comfortable but lots of road noise. Live the heated seats."

"My only complaint w/ this car is road noise. From reading on the Internet, I'm not the only owner w/ this complaint. Other than that, the 08 was a great year for this car."

"More road noise than I would like."

"The ride is a bit harsh. A softer ride over bumpy roads would make the car near perfect."

"Seats do not have enough rearward travel for tall people and aren't that comfortable."

"The seating and interior have not held up as expected from a Honda. We purchased the premium leather seat package, but have several areas like the armrests where the trim is wearing much more than it should for a car of this age / mileage."

"it is comfortable, attractive, drives well, driver sits high and it is extremely reliable. Everything I wanted, which makes it a great value."

"Reliable, low maintenance"

"The crv is a solid value. It's done well in all aspects.... descent mileage, easy maintenance schedule and easy to drive and being reliable is a good thing."

"Excellent vehicle, very comfortable, plenty of room, nice ride, low repair costs. Had to replace A/C compressor this year, only costly repair in 10 years."

"Very few problems over the years."

"Best bang for the buck"

"CRV keeps it's value"

"Low extra maintenance (other than tires, oil change). Very few problems with any other systems"

"In 10 years the only repairs needed were an a/c valve ($180) and a tail light bulb ($5). Most reliable car I've owned."

"This has been the best car I have ever owned for value. I have only had to have regular service and no repairs for 236000 miles."

"Our CR-V has been wonderful. The car still runs well 10 years later and is rust free."

"Great compact SUV for the price. It was my first choice for my first pregnancy. I wanted a safer vehicle than a sedan, but didnt want a monster SUV."

"bought this car new in early 2009. the only problem this car suffers from is over design. nothing has ever broken. normal service. wonderful little suv. couldn't be happier. and holds its value!!!"

"No problems in the entire 170000 miles driven. Best reliability ever."

"I have gotten my money’s worth with this vehicle"

"Great, very reliable vehicle that handles and performs well and is well priced for the vehicle that you get."

"We brought the car new. It is now 11 years old and we have had to do only routine maintenance. Acceleration, braking, and maneuvering continue to be very good. Radio works well. Paint and hardware have held up well."

"Reasonable price when new vs competitors Reliable, mostly trouble free vechicle Feels like we could go to 200,000 miles without any concerns about reliablity issue. Still happy with styling vs newer cars"

"Reliable."

"Great value, minimum care and almost no major problems.only one serious problem covered by warranty was the automatic door lock required replacement. Only a minor inconvenience ."

"The car has done everything we hoped it would do."

"Low maintenance vehicle with no issues"

"We are a one car family driving this car for 10 years now. While it had its share of repairs, we purchased the extended warranty and most were covered. However, I believe that we have more repairs and replacements then other owners. The most annoying one is the door lock system, which to this day still seems to have an issue. The car has served its purpose providing a comfortable ride for our family of three and all the extra gear and space needs that we require"

"Great value for the price. Handles well for a small SUV, repairs have been minimal and has been very dependable."

"It’s a great reliable vehicle!"

"Very dependable and low cost maintainance"

"Value. Reliability. 10 years and its still a great car."

"Very satisfied"

"Also, got just what I bought if for and very satisfied."

"Likely the best value we've ever gotten in a vehicle: Safe, very reliable, and easy to drive."

"A reliable vehicle"

"Ten years, 185,00 miles later, Our CRV has had few maintenance problems. Exterior finish still looks great, but the upholstery on both doors has ripped off the the arm rest."

"I've only had to pay for standard maintenance on this car. Only issue is you have to get new wiper blades from the dealer - no one else carries them. I get good mileage (22 in city, 28 on hywy) It's been a great car. If it had blue tooth I wouldn't even think about replacing it."

"Decent price, but the fwd model is front end light which effects driving in heavy rain and snow past a couple inches."

"This has been a very reliable vehicle. In all the years I have owned the vehicle, it has only required normal maintenance."

"We have no problems with the vehicle."

"very dependable, easy to drive, very comfortable"

"Good value for the money."

"We are so pleased withe low maintenance costs of our CR-V that we have even "mock-complained" to the dealership that we haven't paid them enough money over the years!"

"provides many maintenance free miles, good cargo space, relatively comfortable ride, easy driving experience, decent gas mileage"

"The CRV is a great car. The quality along with the fit and finish is excellent. Our car is almost 10 years old and it looks and runs like new. Very happy with our Honda CRV."

"While today the pricing probably would not hold up. When I purchased my Honda CR-V nes in 2008 the price was wonderful. 9 years driving of 87,000 land towing another 25,000 it has been a great investment."

"Exceptional value. Bullit proof reliability."

"The 2008 Honda Cr-V handles very well. Acceleration is excellent. The price was a good value. We are in our ninth year now with the CR-V."

"The car has been very good with not many extra expenses."

"Economic, comfortable, good mileage, still looks and runs great after ten years."

"We made an excellent deal when we purchased the CR-V. We have not had any problems with the vehicle to date. It accelerates well, is comfortable and economical."

"The car has been very reliable with mostly routine costs."

"This is the best SUV on the market for the money."

"Great Value, with hardly any service issues. Most economical car I've ever owned."

"versatile, for carrying passengers and cargo. Good acceleration and stops fast. Reliable"

"Hondas are great reliable cars. Change the oil, tires, brakes, a couple of light bulbs and battery in a 9 yr old car w/ 140000 miles. Good reliable vehicles!"

"Good price for the value and verry good price for the excellent reliability."

"Very Road noise"

"Great car for the money"

"towable"

"Great value due to reliability. We have never had to do any repairs on the vehicle."

"The CR-V is a very versatile and sturdy car. Maintenance costs have been minimal."

"My 2008 CRV is almost 10 years old and I have not had to spend much money in repairs. I keep up with the recommended maintenance. I hope to get a few more years of hassle free driving out of it. So overall a very good value."

"reliable"

"The car has been remarkably reliable."

"Great value for the money. This was our first experience with an SUV and we have thoroughly enjoyed it."

"Good value"

"Awesome car. I would buy another one without considering other brands."

"Purchase price in 2008 seemed very reasonable. Only other money spent on this vehicle was two sets of tires, new battery and routine maintenance,"

"good value"

"interior space"

"The car has been overall a good value with the exception of the steering and handling."

"Owned the car since new. Treated it badly through very deep snow and pull loads heavier than recommended but kept the service on schedule including transmission flushes. Does look pretty anymore but still run like the day I bought it. One tough little vehicle that just keeps going after 390000 KM"

"No mechanical issues."

"zero repairs in ten years (!) of ownership. Great residual value."

"A great, do it all vehicle with all-wheel drive. Excellent reliability. Safe and easy to drive for younger drivers in the family."

"It combines considerable cargo space with comfortable driving experience and great reliability."

"Excellent overall value. Car drives, looks, and handles as it should. Extremely pleased with overall performance (fuel, handling, storage)."

"Excellent design, reliable performance and good safety features."

"Low depreciation. No big repairs"

"This vehicle has been reliable and is very space efficient. Except for replacing the recalled Takata airbags, the car has been fairly free of problems. Excellent value for what we paid."

"Absolutely bullet proof. No problems and going strong at 130,000'miles. Will make a great car for our 16 year old daughter."

"Great car. Seats are tough to take after 3-4 hours."

"In 8 years there has never been a problem with the vehicle. No repairs have been needed other than regular maintenance, including replacing the brakes and tires when worn."

"Value good, but gas mileage has been disappointing from the start. It also is hard on tires, which somewhat undermines the economy realized by low maintenance expenses."

"I just passed 200,000 miles (in 8 years). There was a major problem with the AC which I had to pay for in full because the vehicle was over 100,000 miles. If it had been under 100,000 then Honda would have paid for it."

"Best car I ever purchased. Minimal upkeep costs and great performance."

"I purchased this used car at a dealership; the interior facing on the door cracked within the first year; all four of the door actuators have Been replaced and I am in negotiations to have the ones not covered under recall paid for also. Thus far, no luck. The weather stripping around windows also is peeling."

"Had a door lock recall and airbag recall. Informed about airbag recall because of death causing shrapnell. We were informed in November of 2015 and it is now August 2016 and theystill don't have the parts to fix them."

"The quality of the interior and accessories for the price is really good."

"I got a reliable roomy car for a good price. The only problems that I have had was with problems that were recalled and were paid for by Honda. And I think that is amazing!"

"No service issues until 70,000 and then standard repairs. Very interested in annual upkeep costs as well as a reliable vehicle. Honda meets exceptions."

"I have over 200,000 miles on my C-RV and have only had to do routine maintenance and minor wear and tear issues (A/C compressor, cooling fan motor, etc). It's been a great car for the money. It runs like a top and I hope to drive it until it reaches 300,000 miles."

"Easy to drive and park, good driver visibility, good gas mileage, great for the mountains and taking the dogs to the Vet, Has all the trim packages and looks good in public. Wife's car."

"I consider it overall basic transportation. It is good enough to haul some items when I am doing work on my house. The TPMS system has been an annoying feature going off and on at random...and this after I replaced all the sensors after the last time I had new tires installed."

"Excellent "bang for the buck." Fantastic vehicle with minimal maintenance requirements."

"Since I bought this unit used, I only paid about 25% of what a new one wold cost. With low mileage and a three year warranty (and excellent condition), we are very pleased with our purchase. Gas mileage and reputation are great."

"We got our money's worth. Very low maintenence"

"Good value for the money. Noisy when driving"

"The CR-V is not exciting to drive but it is an INCREDIBLE value. We got 300,000 miles on our first CR-V and are up to 227,000 on this one (2008) with only one major repair. Extremely reliable & durable."

"The primary reason for the purchase was the wide 90 degree opening doors. It gives easy access to someone in a wheelchair and easier entry to anyone of advanced age or disabled in some way."

"Bought new, wife drove 7 years w/no problems, BUT has been sitting in our garage since 4/16 because of Takata airbag inflator recall. Honda is providing a rental car while waiting on inflator."

"High reliability, sufficient cargo room."

"Excellent value for price paid; hardly any issues to note other than Takata airbag replacements"

"A solidly reliable car, with great carrying capacity, good gas mileage and comfortable seats and interior. I love this car."

"Relative value to price I paid is fair to good. We have had numerous recalls which Honda has taken care of, except the airbag - we have been waiting 3 months on that. The air system is problematic, but is used quite a bit. I am frustrated by the airbag issue - I feel like I am driving a death trap as they still don't have the parts to fix it."

"Fairly expensive to buy, but holds value well."

"just happy we only drive that CR-V 2000 km per year"

"Very reliable, always starts,decent comfort"

"Value is excellent. I do regular maintenance, and have not had a single emergency repair since purchased. I bought a top quality car, and have had no reason to see it differently. 102,000 miles."

"I bought this car in 2007 and have had little to no trouble with it. If it weren't for the fact that it's 2WD and the air conditioning doesn't work (not the fault of the original system - it had to be rebuilt after a wreck), I would keep it longer."

"In 8 years, I have yet to have any repairs needed. Far exceeded my expectations."

"Only spent $21,500. So far in nine years, the car has performed very well."

"Super reliable"

"Storage wholly inadequate. No room for documents, manuals. Luggage storage is minimal. Two undercover storage areas in rear are completely impractical and useless. Third row of seats too congested and uncomfortable for adults."

"Reasonable price for what the car has"

"Bought second hand at low mileage and good price."

"Very reliable vehicle that has been worked hard for 8 years not only driving but also pulling a utility trailer for home improvement projects. Also goes through snow like a snow machine. It has 350000 Kilometers"

"Car is an excellent fit for short women. Had controls, and arm rests - which most sedans do not. when replaced - the next car will also be selected for fit and comfort first (likely a small SUV)"

"We have had very good experience with this car. Road noise a little high. Mileage has been good in town and on the road."

"It can be towed behind an RV with all wheels down. New model CRV cannot which is disappointing."

"The seats are very uncomfortable for long trips. This car barely excelarates when you push the gas pedal on the way down. It's very noisy drive."

"Honda knowingly sold CRV's for many years that had A/C units that would fail. It cost us about $2000. to have repaired out of warranty. This problem existed years prior to our 2008 mfg. Never consider Honda brand in future."

"I love my CR-V. I'm just very disappointed of all the recalls & air condition issues due to poor design & choices."

"Couldn't have picked a better car for my needs. Just the right size for family travel and local driving economy. I particularly like sitting above the other vehicular traffic. Greatly appreciate the dealer service regardless how little I need it."

"As much as I dislike the high noise level in my CRV and the failure of the clutch in the AC compressor, it has still been an amazingly reliable vehicle over my 8 years of ownership. I believe that Hondas, more so than any other brand, are built to last."

"Very reliable, holds its' value."

"17 inch wheels. Overall shape"

"Love the fact that it hasn't gone out of style!"

"Classic look"
