Functional but DAUM this car is loud

This SUV has a lot of space inside. Very comfortable for four adults...back seat is plenty big for average adult men. And there is a lot of cargo room with the seats up. I put a 16 foot ladder inside with the seats down. Just fit. The stereo is totally lackluster, the sound quality is really not good. I wish at EX-L trim you got a better stereo. Engine has enough power when not in Eco mode, but the driving dynamics are nothing special, though a fairly comfortable ride. Tested the Mazda CX-5 and that is much better driving. The mpgs on CRV are okay, especially when in Eco mode. I've gotten 31-32 on the highway doing 70 with flat terrain and high twenties mixed driving around town. Least favorite par to of this car, considering how boring it is otherwise, is the road noise. I am looking to sell a car I bought new 2.5 years ago because I can't stand driving on the open road. And like I said, the stereo doesn't do a good job covering that up. Don't buy this car if you want a quiet ride. Unless you drive 30 mph everywhere you go.

Here in florida this ride is perfect! no issues at all. everyone that comes inside it passangers all love it! i get compliments constantly. have had since 0 miles . now has over 10k and no issues. go in on time for all my oil changes. For those bad reviewers, its probably since they live in harsh snowy areas but here in flat florida its perfect! A/C cools fast in this hot florida weather , smooth ride always, weve taken it for long trips up and down the florida coast and not one peep. highly recommend this little SUV for anyone who has dogs or kids. My dogs love the cargo space ! Recommend getting the weather techs floor liners to protect the floor rugs. plan to have my baby for years to come!

My first car purchase

I bought a certified pre-owned 2014 CRV with 70K miles, and this car drove wonderfully. It cut like butter through the snow, and never had any issues in weather. I put about 20K miles on this car during the 7 months that I owned it. Unfortunately, I got in an accident that totaled the car (airbags went off, nothing that had to do with the car), however, after being hit in the rear left side, and being spun around more than 360 degrees, my air bags instantaneously went off, and I was absolutely fine. I walked away from the accident with a scratch on my left arm. This car is so incredibly reliable, and I went right back to Honda and got another one. I loved every minute of driving this car and would highly recommend it to anyone. I drove for work, and for pleasure.

Solid SUV

Overall, my CR-V has been reliable and pleasant to drive. I currently have a little over 102,000 miles on it, and I've had no major mechanical issues with it. It is still on its original brakes. No leaks of any kind. AC still blows cold. So far, the only money I've spent on it has gone to maintenance, which has been carried out as suggested by the Honda maintenance minder. The interior is showing some wear, but this is to be expected after 5 years with me. My only issues, are the following: 1) Compass Sensor: my compass sensor has behaved erratically for several months now and causes the direction in which I am traveling to display incorrectly and constantly blink when I drive. The fix suggested by the owners manual does not fix the problem. Sometimes, the problem goes away, and the compass works properly again. 2) Batteries don't seem to last long with this vehicle. I'm lucky if I get 18 months out of one. My electrical system always checks out fine during maintenance. 3) My CR-V has the well-documented "croak" that can be head when the vehicle is stopped and the AC is running. When I first started hearing it, it was highly annoying, but I eventually got used to it. Again, these are minor issues, and overall the vehicle has been highly-dependable. I hope to put another 100K miles on it over the next few years.

Our CRV is really nice for the small SUV class. It is smooth shifting, very reliable with no maintenance issues (yet), and gets great gas mileage for an SUV. The two things that I wish were nicer are 1) The road noise. It is not what I would call "quiet" inside while driving, and 2) It is sluggish driving anywhere in the mountains. The 4 cylinder engine really struggles going uphill. Other than those two items, I really enjoy our CRB.
