Used 2015 Honda CR-V EX 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl CVT) Consumer Reviews
Impressed with Honda
So far (700+ miles in), this has been a great car. I've gone from a pickup getting 18 mpg to 30.5 (all city driving) mpg on my last fill up. I am a big person, but the front seat is very comfortable. I love having multiple adjustments for the seat and steering wheel. I have had open heart surgery so ease of seating, adjustment of steering wheel, and getting in/out, are now top issues for me. Plus by getting and SUV, I don't feel I've lost much in getting rid of a truck as far as hauling stuff around. I never towed anything anyhow. The vibration issue is non-existent in this car. I've read about it and seen videos on it. It just feels like a regular 4 cylinder to me. I don't doubt that some folks are getting jostled, though. But mine is just fine. Over time I do wonder about the cloth seats. They are very plush and very soft. I am concerned that over time they will start to show their age, but I'll deal with that when I have to. So far, I've been very impressed with the overall fit and finish of the car. This is my first Honda and they were never really on my radar. But after deciding to get out of a truck and shopping around, I shopped Chevy, Ford, Nissan and Mazda. The CR-V just made sense. It's a more comfortable ride with better standard features for the price. There is a bit of a learning curve regarding the touchscreen radio, but tinker around for a few minutes and you'll have it figured out. We were very happy with how we were treated at our Honda dealership and I'm sure this will be our new place to shop.

Great dealership support
Purchased a new 2015 CRV in January of 2016. Had some issues with the car and the dealership went out of its way to resolve the problems. Couldn't be happier with my dealership and will continue to do business with them.

My first SUV and I love it!
I looked at Mazda, Honda, and Toyota and the CRV was the overall best value. I was initially interested in the Honda HRV, but the lack of engine power turned me towards the CRV. I test drove the CRV and fell in love. I have read a few reviews mentioning CRV engine vibration, but I have not experienced this AT ALL. Smooth ride, the nicest interior out of the brands that I looked at, and awesome gas mileage!

Nineth Honda and The Best so Far
I love this vehicle. It's been awesome in every way. I've owned nine Honda's (Accord, Prelude, 4 Civics and a Honda GL1800 Goldwing along with several other Honda motorcycles.) Of the Honda's I've owned over the years, this one is the pinnacle. It looks better, runs better, feels better and made better than the rest. Not only do I feel that way compared to the other Honda's I've owned, but all the American cars I've owned over the years as well as current vehicles priced tens of thousands of dollars more. This is a VERY practical vehicle that I'm proud of in terms of just how good it is made compared to others. Honda and Toyota are the elites of quality and longevity. The key here is "will this car still be running in 10-15 years?" With Honda or Toyota, you better believe it. On the mileage side, if "Ergo" mode is off, the engine is very peppy, but the mileage really goes down. However with "Ergo" mode on, my mileage has consistently been 31-33 MPG average. Almost as good as my 2006 Civic. My drive is mostly highway back and forth to work. However for an SUV that's great! Road noise is only an issue on grated pavement, otherwise it's pretty quiet and I have NEVER experienced any rough idle. Could have been an issue on the earlier year models. Honda has appeared to have fixed it on the production line if it was an issue. Mine is smooth as silk with over 1500 miles on it now. I also have a new Toyota Camry XLE with the 2.5L 4 and it's rougher than this CR-V. If you're used to the smoothness of a V6 or a V8 and you've just moved to a 4 cylinder engine, well it's pretty normal to have a slight rough idle. I've had Chevy 4 cylinders (Grand Am, Chevette and a Monza) as well that were a little rough at idle. This CR-V is extremely smooth for a 4. The interior quality is terrific and frankly much better than my earlier Honda's. I buy vehicles to last. Every Honda I've owned had well over 100K miles on them when I sold them. I usually keep a car 10 years and this CR-V is no exception. Oh, and when you go to sell Honda's, they usually take less than a day to sell on Craig's list. Not to mention you'll get top dollar too. :-) Here's to a long relationship with one of the best vehicles I've owned so far.

Heavenly CRV
Traded in my 14 yr. old Lexus ES300 -- my baby -- for a practical CRV. I researched for months on my next vehicle. Lo and behold, I bought the CRV. Am pleased with the electronics, right side-view and back-up cameras. You get used to the vibration esp. when you get 34 miles to a gallon (highway). I am very happy and love CRV! Haven't bought a brand new vehicle since 1985 -- that was a Honda Civic. Now, 30 yrs. later, it's a CRV. Great job, Honda!
