Honda CR-V Change Vehicle

"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."

"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."

"I LOVE my seat warmers. Too bad they're only in the front seats."

"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."

"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"
