Used 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour Hatchback Consumer Reviews
Great Value
Just traded in my 2009 Accord EX-L for a 2011 Crosstour EX. The way the used car market for used Hondas, we were able to get out of our 3 year lease a year early with no problem. We traded for a simple reason. With 2 sedans (our other car is a Civic SI) we had limited ability to carry things like a new TV or grill. We needed something with greater utility, but did not want an SUV. This car is perfect! It is smoother and quieter than the Accord sedan, but drives just as well. Similar gas mileage. It sits just a bit higher, which my wife particularly likes. This is a great car. I would recommend it highly!
Bananas for my Crosstour
I am from a family of Honda owners but this is by far my favorite. I previously owned a Toyota Highlander which was great but it was still an SUV. In my Crosstour I have the luxury of being sporty but still having the height and room of an SUV. Love it even though it was on the top 10 ugliest cars.

Engine/gearbox vibration problem
Bought. 2011 crosstour that has travelled135000 kilometres. Great car to drive. I knew it had a vibration in it that came in around 120 KPH. Thought it was a wheel balance problem and sure enough, the vibration disappeared. BUT that vibration was masking another vibration problem that only appears when the engine mode switches to the ECO mode. After doing some research, it turns out that this is an old problem specific to the 3.5 V6 engine. Do an internet search for "honda v6 excess engine vibration in ECO mode" and you can read all about it. This vibration can cause damage to the engine mounts which are fairly expensive to replace. It can also cause damage to the torque converter. I'm reading that you can purchase a kit for about $80 to $100 which prevents the ECO mode initiating, called a VCM tuner. I only know what I've read, it might be my next purchase for the car. So anyone considering a used crosstreck, be aware of this problem and check for this vibration.

I love this car!
I've bought a lot of new cars, but I haven't ever been as excited about one as this. It feels like a much more expensive car. It's fast, quiet, luxurious, head-turning - I could go on and on! I enjoy my drive to work so much now that I actually wish it were longer. I shopped this car against the similarly equipped Subaru Outback (ltd w/moonroof) for a long time, but I think that the value is much better on the Honda Crosstour - it really feels like a lot of car for the money. EX-L/4WD MSRP is about $35k, but I had two quotes for less than $30k. Shop around and get competing price quotes from dealers.
