I love the car just took a trip from Chicago to Virginia in it and averaged 41mpg according to the onboard computer. When I did the math manually using gallons and miles from the odometer it came out to 40.2mpg. For an SUV that is amazing! Now, I used to drive a Prius for work so I'm always watching my driving patterns and am fairly gentle on the gas. On this trip I drove about 60-65mph most of the drive and set cruise control on several occasions. I absolutely love the car and it's big upgrade from my Honda Fit.

This is my second CRV. First was a 2010 and current is a 2013. This past month or so I have notice a squeal when I apply final pressure to the brakes. Made an appt. with the dealer feeling good that it was still under warranty(mileage 28215/less than two years old) but apprehensive going in that they would not hear the squeal. Went thru the process of talking to the service manager and after about 30 mins. was told they indeed had heard the squeal but it was not covered under warranty. They could give me no reason why it was squealing but they were more than willing to do a brake service costing $230. So, another life lesson learned. They never fail to disapoint.

Same problem as the other reviewer. Grinding noise at every start is sooo irritating. Honestly, if someone wanted to trade me for a 2013 Toyota (something) right now I would. The fact that Honda plays dumb and won't fix the problem they created is disappointing.

We had the first generation of the CRV and loved it. When it came time to replace it we looked at both Ford and the 2013 CRV. Based upon experience and Honda being reputable, we chose the CRV. We despite having the car serviced at the dealer don schedule and afterwards at a local mechanic, we were always told that our oil was dirty and that it should be changed regularly- it had been. No one at the dealership ever said anything about the problems with the 2013 engine. Last year at 70,000 miles the timing chain had to be replaced. It was just out of warranty and Honda refused to do anything. A month ago the timing chain needed to be replaced since the links were again stretching. Mileage 88,000 and another $1,500.00. Called Honda and they refused to acknowledge any issues with the CRV despite multiple reports of this problem on line. No more Hondas. The parts have gotten too expensive with the tariffs the attitude of Honda not being willing to help out when they know there was a defect was it. We bought a Ford. No more Hondas!! They are going the way American manufacturers were years ago when their quality suffered.

Wanted to Love It - Won't Buy Another... :(

I bought my first CR-V earlier this year - a 2013 with 62k miles on it. It sucks! I've had the SUV for 6 months and have just put 5k miles on it. The suspension is super stiff making for an uncomfortable ride and you feel every nook and cranny in the road. If you EVER get car sick this is NOT the vehicle for you. The fuel efficiency is decent, I'm averaging 25/32, and I like the amount of storage space. In 14 years of purchasing vehicles this is my most expensive and worst riding vehicle I've ever bought. Add to it the fact that the factory moonroof, an option I did NOT even want but all the dealer had for used inventory, started leaking a few months ago and I'm stuck forking out ~$850 to fix it. The back-up camera has been ok but the bluetooth features suck for phone calls. Any time I get a call coming in I have to immediately transfer it off of bluetooth or the person on the other end says it sounds like a screeching static noise that drives them crazy. I've had several folks complain about this noise when on bluetooth. This issue takes away from the feature of having bluetooth for calls. :( I swear by Honda & Toyota vehicles all the way as Japanese craftsmanship has been unbeatable for me however this CR-V has really made me second-guess ever buying another Honda again. I expressed my dissatisfaction with this car to the dealer within a week of purchasing and they told me there was nothing they could do about it to remedy the situation. Very disappointing. At least Toyota hasn't let me down, yet. I knew I should have gone with a Highlander. :(
