Best vehicle yet owned (I'm 61)

Dealer quality was a major factor here: this was 3rd Honda purchased new - all of which came with a "Platinum Package" providing free oil changes, state inspections and other great discounts. Have learned that package is no longer offered ( too good a deal). Maintenance costs of all Hondas I've owned has been very low, so far with this CRV its been the best. Love the car in all aspects except for some noises: rattles and jingling in the back and annoying plastic clattering noises in dash/windshield area. Dealer has not been able to find easily, and I'm not willing to tear the interior panels apart to find what it is. Other than noises, I have high hopes that the CRV will last to 150K miles or more.

Remains a Great value - Small things still annoy

We've had this for about 66 months and 48K+ miles, It replaced an older Honda Crosstour - glad we did. The CRV is comfortable, highly maneuverable, great visibility and very economical for an AWD. The controls are easy to use. No touch screen, which we found a deal killer in the new CR-Vs We would consider this car again if we were in the market. In late 2018, we purchased a new car - not a Honda, regretfully. We eliminated the new CRV because of the gas in oil issue with 1.5L Turbo engine and the info center. If the reliable 2.4 L engine were available in higher trim lines, we would have probably gone with a 2nd CRV. The main things that still annoy are the dysfunctional cruise control that simply doesn't work and the poor shift points in the 5 speed transmission - especially in eco mode, which we never use. Other than that, it continues to be a really great car.

To all the doubters out there who have their little hangups about Honda CRV .. you are clueless...maybe its because you are so used to driving your domestic junk ! The Honda CRV is the best SUV in this class that money can buy period based on just quality and dependability alone!!! Not to mention it's comfortable, quiet and it just plain works.....body craftsmanship has vastly improved and interior quality is superb; mine EX-L has heated power leather seats and auto climate control just to name a few of the options that are far superior than anything i have ever driven and mileage is very respectable 30 mpg highway all things considered for an AWD.......... Not going to win any drag races with it nor am i looking to but after 200,000 miles and 10 years of daily use this will still be on the road trouble free while the rest of the other junk will be in a repair shop or a scrap yard. It also holds better resale value after 5 years than most garbage that is 2-3 yrs old. At 54000 trouble free miles this 2014 continues to impress in the brutal cold and snowy Minneapolis winter with 30” this month alone, never once stuck and started right up with remote start at -36F. Honda continues to impress and build quality cars and that is why they’re at the top. All else is just sheet metal.

That with 26700 miles on it all it will need in the next 5000 miles is a set of net tires. The only reason I am filling out his is for the chance to win $100. I am waiting for a few of friends to see if they can sell their cars and when they do I will sell them this Honda and then I will buy a 2019 Honda right now I am waiting for all the 2019 Honda's to come out, this is how good my cars have been I sold my 2002 Honda CRV AWD to my brother youngest daughter and as of 7-20-2018 she has 302,000 miles on it and all it has been done to is maintence, but this 2002 all it has ever been put on was the best Mobil 1 full syn. oil, and flush out transmission and refill with full syn. fluid as you can see my brother kept this 2002 as perfect as you can.
