I've had my car for exactly one week and I am completely disappointed. This is my third Honda and is my last Honda. Vibration and shuddering after it warmed up and really terrible at idle (stop on D). The vibration is very noticeable on passenger seat without passenger. The posted MPG is not true. The MPG from Honda website is 26 city/33 highway/28 combined mpg rating for AWD models. Currently mine is only 23.3 mpg combined (driving a little more city than highway). The heater is weak and has trouble keeping up in cold weather. The back seat takes very long time to get warm. This is really a problem for me because I have kids sitting in the back seat.
So far so good

Updated from original review (6-3-15) (6-3-17) I've driven the CRV for 1200+ miles here in SoCal. I've only come across the vibration while driving once when I was on the freeway at 60+ mph. The outside temp was in the high 50's. The drive felt very rough. All other drives except when idling, at a stop with the car in drive and my foot on the brake, have been vibration free. I find the infotainment system to be outdated and difficult to use along with the voice features. I've gotten used to the Lane watch feature and I've grown to love it. I can't wait until all cars get rid of mirrors and switch to cameras only. I'd prefer to have the camera feed show up on the instrument panel or a HUD feature instead of the infotainment display. Otherwise, it's got a comfortable interior, a good ride and good looks. I'm happy (Update from 6-3-16) The dreaded vibration creeped in at about 2,000 miles. For me, the whole issue has been blown out of proportion. It's not as bad as I've been led to believe. It's noticeable for sure, but it only happens when stopped, with the car in gear and after it has warmed up. Because the weather is usually warm and I don't stop often or for very long the vibration isn't an issue. However, this may change in the long run. Also, loading gear for my wife and I is a breeze. The floor is low so it's easy to get a stroller in and out. I'm satisfied with my purchase.

I've had this vehicle for 26 months & 13000 miles of mixed driving. It's been getting 22.5 mpg, & I've been babying it w/eco mode on. If you drive it "normally", it drops to 22 in eco mode, & 21 w/o eco mode. Unless you have super quick reflexes to hit the eco button to disable eco mode in an emergency, leave it off or the car has virtually no pickup. The interior of the doors is all cheap plastic, and there's very little in the way of support behind the door panels. I tend to lean my left leg against the door when I drive, and it's already starting to "give". The door panels rattle and the dealer says it's "normal". Really? The console box is small compared to my Camry & the USB/HDMI connections are in there; if you keep stuff wired up, there isn't much usable storage in there. Little pickup but handles well. The tech package isn't ready for prime time. Lane departure warning gives more false alarms than legit and I keep it off. Lane keep assist (self steering) works ok on a clean road with freshly painted lines, but any little thing makes it lose sight of the road and it constantly warns you to take over full control. More of a distraction once you get past the novelty of it. Pass on the tech package: $5000 and it is not Tesla's or Google's self driving car, not even close Update: Jan 7, 2017: It's been a while and the review stands as-written. I leave the eco-mode off full time as I've had a few occasions to need to accelerate rapidly and there is simply no time to find that eco button. The lane-departure-warning is wrong more than it's right. The lane-keep-assist requires you to spend more time looking at the dash than the road since it's constantly giving the the can't-see-the-lines-on-the-road-please-take-over warning. Also, the mileage is not even remotely close to what Honda advertised. Update: Jan 10, 2017: One final thought to consider when purchasing this - or any other - vehicle. Most of my trips are short (less than 10 miles). I just got back from a two day 900 mile trip and discovered something else. The front seats have what I'll call "wings" that are sculpted up and inward on the base, and seat back - presumably to provide support, or help keep you in place during an accident. I'm a pretty big guy and on any long trip they tend to put a lot of pressure on your thighs and back. I assumed it was because of my size. My brother, who is as skinny as can be, bought a Lexus with the same style seats. He has a 95 mile daily drive and within 2 weeks he traded in the car because the seats made him uncomfortable. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but you'll only know if it works for you personally if you think about it *consciously* while sitting in the vehicle. It's not something you'll notice on a test drive, but something that you should consider when purchasing ANY vehicle.

UPDATED: Radio/CD/Bluetooth worse: can't easily replace sound system, now dropping most hands-free mobile calls (Apple iOS) rear camera gets more annoying every day; radio can't be upgraded to a real one without losing function; high maintenance cost… Never again. Interior cubbies, storage, are lacking. Rear-view camera & guides are totally useless, I only use mirrors. Radio with single optical disc far too big, poorly laid out, long long learning curve. Bluetooth for phone okay functionally, hard to program. CVT was not an issue, but just as noisy inside as ever. Very bad carpet-plastics-paint co-ördination: brown with black with white? Aggressive up-selling of bs options at finalization, no deals on financing. Stuck with this turkey for 3~5 years, depreciated one-third ($20k two years later). Last one of these, ever.

7600 miles and still under warranty ( thank heavens). On I-95 in Delaware, headed for my son's in PA when transmission dies! In middle lane of 5 lane highway. Truck driver behind me pushes me to shoulder at great personal risk. Towed to dealer who got me rental. Ordered new transmission and I picked it up on Thursday. Dealer (Martin Honda was great) but Honda disappinted me. I had a 2007 CRV which I loved! If this tranny busts it will be my last Honda!
