Absolutely love my Honda CRV

Love it, best car I ever bought. It’s fantastic in the bad New England Winters. This is my fourth Honda and I will only buy Honda’s. They are the most reliable car ever.

haven't had it long but like my 2017 CRV

Got an 2017 CRV EX AWD used with 22k miles CPO. As with a lot of Hondas there is some road noise, but it helps my son sleep, so it's not a big problem for me. I have had a little issue with the screen connecting during cloudy/stormy weather but it's been fine lately. Will see how it does on my next upcoming trips. I am enjoying the saftey alerts like lane assistance and the Apple Car Play feature is very nice! I bought this car for its reliability and hope it keeps is value as most Hondas do. I plan to keep it for a very long time unless I have another kiddo and feel otherwise :)

Safe and comfortable

I have driven the CRV for about a year. The safety features work well, it is quiet, and the engine accelerates smoothly. Great daily driver for a family.

Disappointed

I’m disappointed about many things. For the 2017’s Honda made some changes that I feel fell short. Example: The headlights were lowered, now it’s hard to read road signs, the lights are not bright enough. The gas lever is very hard to reach, you can’t see which one you’re pulling on, I accidentally pulled the hood latch and realized it once I was back on the expressway with my hood about to lift off as I regained speed. Honda redesigned the doors now they swing open way too far, hard to reach once you are seated. When I turn on the heat or the air the car vibrates, gives me the jitters. It’s not a very quiet vehicle, could be the cheap tiresthat Honda puts on the vehicles. Poor design externally near the windshield, very hard to remove snow from the windshield, you must push the snow upwards to clear it away from the wipers. Now after reading all these reviews about gas and oil mixing together I’m about ready to trade mine in for the Rav that I was going to buy

computer problems

We have owned this car for 22 months. Have loved it till we drove to FL to visit daughter. Had to extend our visit almost 2 weeks. The computer system went out ( just as we pulled into her drive) Actually the back up camera came on while driving on the interstate. We had had trouble with the warning lights on mirrors coming on for no reason earlier in the year, Long story short Went to the dealer in Pensacola 3 times before they said it was "fixed" Stopped in the Smoky Mtns . Got up the next morning to sightsee and the car wouldn't start. Got a jump, drove it home, parked in garage and wouldn't start,. Had it towed to Germain where we bought and the installed a new battery. Haven't had any problems since but do not feel comfortable keeping this car. Very disappointed as it was always rated very high for reliability

My favorite car I have ever owned.

This car is not only stylish and just looks beautiful, but is a very comfortable ride. I am 6'3" and I have PLENTY of legroom, headroom and seat support. Long trips are nice as it is just easy to drive. Also on long trips, it has Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keep Assistance. I love this feature. Dual climate control and dual driver seat settings at the touch of a button are both awesome too. YOU will NOT be disappointed with this car purchase. Best descision I have ever made. Go test drive one for yourself.

Very Pleased with the Honda CR-V

This is my second CR-V EX-L. It has the Honda Sensing safety package which is standard on all CR-V?s except the XL model. As an older driver, I appreciate the safety features. It also has a 1.5 liter engine with a turbo. The acceleration is excellent and has enough power for all occasions. Also, the gas mileage is excellent. I average over 30 mpg in around town driving and as high as 35 on the interstate. The car is comfortable and has a very nice leather interior.I I had to name a negative, I would say it is the powered passenger seat. It cannot raise and lower the seat. Since my wife is under 5 feet, she needs a seat cushion to see out properly. Overall, this is an outstanding small SUV. Motor Trend agrees with me as it named the 2015 and 2018 Honda CR-V as their SUV of the year.
