I owned this vehicle for about 5 years. It is easy to get in and out of and is very comfortable. The heat works fast and so does the AC. The only vehicle i had that the rear tailgate opened sideways like a car door and the glass in the rear door could be open, making it easy to haul large items. It has 195,000 miles on it and I am going to need to get a new one. Hope a newer model is just as great.

This has been the best car ever. I bought mine new many years ago, and have always loved this car. It has needed extraordinarily little maintenance over all these years, and still runs beautifully - I am even on the original clutch. Great Car!!!!!

Not what we expected from a Honda

We bought this car new and it was good for about 50k miles. First problem was that the front door locks simply stopped working. Then the cheap plastic parts in the interior started breaking. Then a problem with the VTEC system. A mechanic said that dirt had prevented the extra set of valves from engaging when the engine needed more power. We were not doing any heavy duty off-road driving, so that was strange. Now, like other readers, our throttle sensor has gone out and it is going to set us back $900 to replace the whole unit. I'm sorry, but this is not why we bought a "reliable" Honda. Seems like the company is coasting on its reputation and I'm not enthusiastic about buying one again.

Our CRV, which we bought new, is completing its 5th year on the road. So far nothing has gone wrong yet. I think that's pretty amazing. The vehicle also still looks very good. There is some small pitting on the hood and the black side rails are faded. I got 45,000 miles on the original Firestones and will change the next set at around 90,000. The recommended maintenance intervals are too far apart. Do the spark plugs at 75,000 and change the trans and coolant fluids at around 60,000 miles. Also if you notice a rumbling during slow tight turns, have the rear differential pump fluid changed. Change the pollen filters. When they clog, the AC works harder. That may be why compressors go bust.
AWD Control, Totally Reliable, Secret Picnic Table

My Honda CRV standard shift is 16 years old with 90,000 + miles, and hasn't let me down once. It is consistently reliable with excellent handling and good gas mileage. The standard shift and all while drive give me superior control in all kinds of traffic, terrain, and weather conditions. I removed the center rear headrest to make visibility perfect. My only complaints are minor: a somewhat inconvenient center console, a smallish glove box. The trunk space is ample and the back seat easily folds down to create a huge cargo space that conceals a "secret" picnic table for tailgating. This car will easily last another 90,000 miles.
