Used 2015 Honda CR-V Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl CVT) Consumer Reviews
VIBRATION just keeps building on your nerves!!!!
Hi, I own a 2015 CR-V Touring on NOV 2014, and am very disappointed by the vibration issue. Honda has acknowledged the issue and posted a video showing why it is causing the vibration. You need to document the issue with the manufacturer by calling them at American Honda Customer Service 1-800-999-1009 Option 7. Provide your VIN# and Contact Information. They will contact you when a fix is ready. As of APR 30, 2015, there is no fix date or whether a fix is possible. If you want to see the video, go to this page and look for the bibration question: https://owners.honda.com/help/faqs
Vibrations - Honda reliability is dead
5000 miles on the car and Mode 1 Vibration is evident even at cooler temps. Sometimes in reveres the car shudders violently making you think its going to stall. This is a major concern when backing up around sidewalks or busy parking lots as you lose concentration. Starting to get mode 2 vibration also. The techs at Honda are aware and could care less. Guess only recourse it to keep taking it in and the try to fight them with lemon law. The navigation and the whole setup is counterintuitive, someone really has to clean up the logic here. The materials on the doors are very cheap and scuff up easily. Sitting in stop and go traffic and you feel as if you're in an old broken down manual car with a bad engine and trans. Long and probably last time new Honda buyer. I hope Honda gets with it and fixes the issues. Update: Ended up getting all 3 vibration fixes but it didnt help. Transmission was whining and surging. Started to get highway vibration. Noticed the navigation constantly couldn't find roads. Power steering started cutting out at low speeds in parking lots. Driving around the steering wasnt direct. Honda would never admit any wrong doing. Traded it in. Honda has really cut corners and their reliability has dropped. Sorry to say I'm done with any new Hondas.

Like my wife's 2007 better
I've been driving Hondas for 15 years. Came back from a short stint with a Subaru Outback, because I've really enjoyed driving my wife's 2007 CRV. Let me tell you, Honda really took a good thing and tried to fix it. The overall space and cargo has decreased by inches, but noticeably so. It's terribly dangerous to control climate, radio, or do anything else on the electronic display while one is driving. The vibrations when driving are maddening. We can fit 2 car seats and one person in the back of the 2007, but in the 2015, the 2 car seats make it impossible for a 3rd person to sit, due to seat belt positioning. Oh yeah, I drive all country roads 40-50 mph with barely any stop lights and I am lucky to get in the high 24 MPG. Sometimes I break to 25 MPG. In this day and age on a 4 cylinder??!?!? Give me a break! Oh yeah, the backup cam does not compensate for all the blind spots either. Sometimes the driver door takes 3 tries to shut. Although the touring looks sharp and the engine is really dependable and it's a Honda, I'll probably keep this car until 50K and then dump it. Too many idiosyncracies and life is too short...

Problems keep adding up
Let me start by saying I am currently in arbitration with the National Center for Dispute Settlement http://ncdsusa.org/ and will move onto Lemon Law litigation. I have a 2015 Honda CRV AWD Touring currently over 13k miles and have experienced an array of problems which really has put a sour taste in my mouth because of the numerous problems with our CRV and the type of response from Honda. I have taken the car into service departments that have either took note of, tried numerous fixes or not at all, but in the end we are told that nothing can be done because this is a "characteristic of the vehicle" and no fix is needed . I've even been told by my Honda dealer doing the warranty work that I can take my business to another dealer. I recommend you document all of your visits, even test drives with service advisors, log phone calls and make sure service records state what you reported, what work was done, what was noticed on test drives. I have met with District Parts and Service Manager, filed with Honda Customer Service, sent certified letters and all have resulted in the same response. This is a characteristic of the vehicle. Make sure to file these problems/complaints with Honda Customer Service 1-800-999-1009 and the NHTSA https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/VehicleComplaint/ so the government takes notice. Here are some of the issues you may experience with the CRV. 1. Vibration issues for mode 1, 2 and 3 before and after TSB 15-046 -Driving Mode 1: While stopped with vehicle in gear. -Driving Mode 2: While between 1,000–1,200 rpm at takeoff. -Driving Mode 3: While driving between 1,800–2,200 rpm around 40–50 mph. 2. Vibration at highway speeds 70-80+ 3. Shudder, stall when in reverse 4. Steering issues -Pulls left under acceleration when wheel centered -Does not maintain center/neutral position or track straight down the road without excessive intervention. -Intermittently needs unexpected intervention through turns as the steering is not direct or does not reflect input from the driver. -The steering requires more input in one direction versus another. Intermittently steering becomes very heavy as if no power assist is given. 5. Car whines/whistles when driving These are the problems my car continues to have after taking them in to get "fixed". Update: In the end Honda offerred me a few thousand to close out arbitration while not owning up to or fixing the problems. I unloaded the car as a trade-in since people seem to keep buying them. I watched the car sit at the car dealership for months and not sure if it sold or was sent off to auction. I was going to go through Lemon Law litigation but did not want to put in the time while holding on to the car. Its a real shame, I have a 2008 Acura RL and have owned many Honda through the years without any problems. But Honda's bean counters just screwed up. And now the new Honda Accord 4 cylinder is having issues with the Earth Dreams/CVT combo vibration. Read the forums. Google Earth Dreams Vibration. Go to NHTSA.gov and you will see all the complaints.

Transmission issue at 1000 miles!!!
I am already having an issue with my transmission and I haven't even gotten my permanent plates yet! Getting it looked at tomorrow but I am seriously upset! And it's supposed to be top of the line! I have the touring. When I go down hill it make a crazy winding noise and when I hit the gas it jumps like it's gears are getting stuck. I'm pretty sure I have a lemon. And I was hoping to have this car for the next 10 years. So much for that.
