2007 Honda CR-V EX-L 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
Review
I have driven the CR-V 55,000 in a little over 2 years. This included about 3,000 miles of towing a trailer a max load. Other than routine maintenance (Oil, new tires, etc.) I haven't had any problems. MPG is about 28 highway / 21 in town. I wash and maintain the car regularly and it looks new. I use a leather conditioner on the seats every month. The leather in the driver seat is showing some minor wear. This car has been outstanding.
Favorite Features
XM Radio Leather seats / Sun Roof
Suggested Improvements
Would like better mileage on the highway.
Happy with Caveats...

Review
Overall I've been happy. Amazing cargo space, comfortable, fun, zippy and good hwy/ok city mileage. My beefs: 1) This thing goes out of alignment too easily although Chicagoland roads are horrible. 12K miles and four alignments! I take the train and my wife works 4 miles from house. 2) Body trim panels are flimsy. Spending $280 to replace poorly designed liftgate trim. Why so flimsy on a "rugged" vehicle. I look at prior models and curse the designer. 3) Paint chips and scratches too easily. I have a 2002 Outback that is wearing like iron and this car replaced a Legacy wagon that I sold for top dollar with 110K in it. I do hope this beast goes the distance like my last Honda Accord.
Favorite Features
Cargo, Interior, Zip, Handling overall quality. Great in winter.
Suggested Improvements
Beef up suspension, improve paint and get rid of all this flimsy trim on the next model.

Review
Great little SUV, looks could be improved with front fairing wrap-around bumper (available in Europe). Not good if you need instant response from engine, one time I stepped on the gas and it seemed to take a second or two before it responded, if that is a safety feature it's the most dangerous safety feature on any car, but you get a lot of stuff for the money...
Favorite Features
6 disk CD player, fog-lamps and rear sensors.
Suggested Improvements
Get rid of annoying squeak/chine coming from the engine to the muffler pipe due to cheap materials selected for seal ring, engine is too weak for such a heavy car.

2007 Honda CR-V EX-L 4dr SUV w/Navigation (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
Review
I had a 97 CRV and I really liked it a lot. When the new version came out, I was stunned at how beautiful it was. Nonetheless, I had to shop around, because that'd be crazy to buy the same car again. After looking at everything else on the market, I went back to the 07 CRV and bought it! I couldn't be happier. I love it! (And The green tea color is gorgeous!)
Favorite Features
Comfortable interior. Love navigation and reverse camera. Heated seats. Green tea color.

Review
I had a 2004 Honda CR-V, loved it, but it rode rough. Bought a 2007 and it was a much better ride, but I have had problems with it. Initially I was having problems with it starting. The worst thing is it keeps wearing the tires out. I was told by Honda it was in the rear differential. I am on my 3rd set of tires at 50, 000 miles. Honda's solution---pay them almost $1,000 for new tires. The main customer service representative was very rude and discourteous. I will never buy another Honda car and will never recommend it to any of my friends again.
Favorite Features
body design, better ride than older CR-V
Suggested Improvements
tires, rear differential, starter

Review
Less than 10,000 miles I had to to have the rear differential worked on twice, had to replace tire pressure and master tire pressure sensors at this time, the back Windows squeak like finger nails on a chark board when rolling down, the rear hatch has to be slammed shut, causing the plastic cover above the license plate to fall off, the brakes didn't even last up to 20,000 miles, I am now on my second set of pads, I can not drive at a steady speed between the shifts of the because the car vibrates, sensor that has controls the cooling fan had to be replaced, the plastic splash gaurd under to car came apart, the drivers seat is already wearing down, sad to say but I hate to drive this car - don't buy one.
Favorite Features
The number of passengers that fit and the amount of cargo I can carry.

Review
My wife and I have owned our CR-V for over 2 years and couldn't be happier. It's perfect for running errands around town and can handle just about any New England snow storm. The gas mileage is great 22/city, 30 highway but the trade-off is less power that is most noticeable on the highway. If you're more concerned with 0-60 then you want to look elsewhere. But if you're looking for a small SUV that's priced well, gets good gas mileage and can lug around big pieces of furniture when called upon, you can't really beat this one.
Favorite Features
CD/MP3 player, instrument panel with avg gas mileage display, ride height, gas mileage. Interior feels very Audi/BMW German, which is a good thing.
Suggested Improvements
Since Honda went for fuel efficiency by only releasing it with a 4-cylinder engine, why is there no hybrid version of this car?

Review
My car has 65K miles on it and it won't start. The dealer is telling me that it needs a new engine!!! I had a Honda Civic before this and never any problems. I am so upset. The warranty only covers up to 60K miles, so I am just over. I made a complaint with Honda and we will see what happens. But, buyer beware... only 60K miles on the engine and mine died at 65K. I am still in shock and I have a $16K loan to deal with now.

I love the car but it won't even start!

Review
The CR-V always impresses us with its practicality and ease of use. The cargo area will easily swallow 3 full size bikes or a lawn mower. It gets impressive gas mileage, without sacrificing power or size. The CR-V will hold five people in comfort. It is also nice to drive and gets the highest possible crash test ratings. The only complaint I have is that a V6 version or some other higher power version would be nice. I think the Subaru Forester is a better vehicle, but it isn't as roomy.
Favorite Features
Space, safety, gas mileage, reliability, AWD system, and value.
Suggested Improvements
It needs a more powerful engine.

Review
I bought my 07 CRV in May 2008. People have stopped me at gas stations and grocery stores to ask me about my car! It is comfortable, reliable, and fun to drive. My last car was a Chevy Tracker with 4 cylinders so I was skeptical to get another 4 cylinder, but once I drove it, I noticed a huge difference. The tracker was like trying to push an elephant up a hill. The CR-V isn't like that. It doesn't zip onto the highway like a corvette, but it can get the job done with no problem and sure doesn't feel like an elephant. I love it and it's the best purchase I've ever made.
Favorite Features
My favorite features are all the extras I bought online after purchasing the vehicle. I saved a fortune on the cargo tray and cover as well as seat covers and the console.
Suggested Improvements
Center console was desperately needed for 2 reasons. One being storage, the other comfort. The armrest are way too low. I found a console on eBay and it fits perfectly and matches. The other thing I purchased was seat covers due to the light beige interior and I bought ones with pockets on the back
