Honda saved my life TWICE!

In the last 12 months, I have been involved in 2 auto accidents. One should have hurt or even possibly killed me. I was driving 60mph when a car came out from under an over pass and ran a Red Light and I T-bone'd them withouot hitting the brakes... it totaled my HONDA CIViC (with 260,000 miles) …. but, instead of the engine ending up coming through the dashboard and on top of me and my passenger... it dropped down and out of the car and the impact bars nd air bags saved me...everyone walked away from that wreck. When I received my insurance $ I went car shopping and without a doubt selected another Honda. I chose an suv this time and went with the CRV. Well, not even a year after my first accident, just last Thursday, I was rear-ended at 45 mph while at a complete stop. The woman who hit me, never hit her brakes (and was also ticketed on site)... the adjuster contacted me today, and although my CRV was still drivable, it did approximately $5000k worth of damage to my car. The majority of that was the impact bars that "did their job" by breaking, bending, and preventing the collision from being worse on the passengers. I am on the road 90% of the time. Not only do I love the economic value of my Honda but it has proven over and over now, that it is 100% dedicated to protecting the passengers in the event of a collision. KUDOS HONDA! Job well done!

I read all of the 2013 reviews before purchasing my 2014. I decided to go with the EX-L without navigation. I couldn't imagine going without a passenger seat arm rest. The dealer got me a CR-V without navigation (since those reviews are terrible) and without the entertainment system, which I don't need. It looks good, runs well, has sufficient pickup even in ECO mode. One reviewer complained about the headrest--but on the EX-L the seat is infinitely adjustable so that's easily corrected. The sound system works sufficiently well for me. Headlights seem to light just fine, but I drive only in well lit suburban areas. Controls are easy to see and operate.

2014 CR-V far better than the 2009 model

Just traded in our 2009 CR-V for a new 2014 CR-V. My wife loved the 2009 but I thought it was just OK. Didn’t plan to buy a new car but the trade in was so good I could not pass up the new CR-V. The 2014 is a far better car. I love it. Better body styling, better handling, a lot more quiet on the road, more comfortable, more upscale interior, more standard features, better acceleration and better gas mileage. From a price/quality/performance perspective this is a great car, plus you get Honda’s reliability. I recommend the EX-L model.

Should have bought RAV 4

My wife and I bought our 2014 Honda CRV one year ago when we traded in our 2009 Nissan Xterra for what we thought would be an upgrade. We recently took our Honda into the local dealership for routine service and a problem with the air conditioning. The vehicle had 15000 miles so we were not worried with a repair cost due to the BUMBER TO BUMBER Warranty of 36000 miles. I go in and tell the technician the problem and state that the problem should be covered under warranty and his first statement was not so fast that if it was a hole in the condenser for the A/C it would not be covered. Major problem with the whole A/C on the CRV's. Paid 600 for repair on a brand new car.

AWD Problem

I am very disappointed that I have had my new 2014 CRV for three weeks and it has a problem with the differential. On the test drive, the AWD light came on and the salesman said it was nothing. It has come on three times since, and after much discussion with the dealer they are going to put a new motor on the differential. This is very disappointing because I bought the CRV for its reliability. Would not buy CRV again.
