CRV- EX 2016 interior noise
I'm just buy my new car a CRV 2016 on February . I'm so excited but at the same time worried. The CRV looks amazing but I'm worried about the interior loud noise I have to put the radio loud just to ignore the loud noise. I don't know how to explain It feels like an airplane. The noise it's so loud I don't know if it's normal???

Drives great! Best features/price in class
There is no wonder this CR-V is a top seller and gets rave reviews from the pros. It truly delivers all a compact suv should be, space for people and stuff with a great ride. All of my passengers are 6' or so and have good space in pasenger seat and back seat. At least once a week I drive with three adults in the back row and while its a squeeze to get seat belts buckled, once they're in they're good to go. I cross shopped this segment heavily, even considered the prius v wagon, but in the end I found the CR-V so easy to drive. And while there may be others in the compact suv segment with lower starting prices for their base models, when you're shopping the top trim levels with all available features the CR-V is priced the best. The touring trim has leather seats , sunroof (wish it were panoramic), power liftgate, collision mitigation braking system (I actually saw this in action in my vehicle yesterday!), lane departure warning ( most others offer this too but I don't find this feature that useful), lane keep assist (most others don't have this and I find this VERY useful), adaptive cruise control (this is really neat, I've used this around town but really looking forward to using this on our long family road trips ) and that nifty right side lane view mirror, I'm really liking that. I'm getting good mpg too. I hesitate to even bring up the vibration issue everyone talks about in the 2015 model but I am a motion sensitive person and I shopped the CR-V looking for the vibrations since I was aware of what others had said, I can tell you it really is a non-issue in the 2016 and from what I understand those with the issue in the 2015 can go to dealer to have remedy applied. No vehicle is entirely still at idle, except maybe the Prius since it shuts off its engine but then that Prius sure didn't drive like this CR-V does :-)

returnng to Honda CR-V quality
Getting an internet quote gave us the best deal because the CR-V is rarely discounted. We bought the Touring model specifically for the extra features, particularly the sensing package, which, now that we understand them better are terrific. The touch screen on Navigation has some "buttons" too small for my fingers. Most of the touchscreen is easy to navigate especially for us over 70. Fuel economy is just as advertised and a big improvement from our previous 2 Chevy Equinoxs. The variable transmission sounds strange at first but sure does make acceleration snappy. Noise levels are quite good. We have not experienced the aforementioned vibrations. Plenty of head and people room! So far we love it! Side note: We shopped 3 dealers and in all cases the salespeople's knowledge of the newer features was not very accurate. 1 year update: We love this car and it is terrific in the snow. Our only complaint is that the navigation touch screen tries to be TOO intuitive and we have to back up and correct its erroneous assumptions at times. We still haven't figured out how to input grid types of addresses like 600 East 900 North. It gets confused and I can't figure a way around it. Several dealer sales and tech people can't solve it either. I called Honda USA's technical support phone but no one has returned my calls. Still and all, this CRV-Touring is a terrific car for us living at 6300 ft MSL in the Utah Mountains. We now have driven 37,000 miles and in our mostly rural driving environment we are consistently averaging 30 mpg. We had to replace the back wiper arm due to a car wash error but so far NO issues of any kind. The Navigation still tries to be TOO intuitive and keeps us from being able to program certain address types. Update 2+ years old now. We wtill love this car. Mileage in our rural area continues to average 30 mpg. NOTE: If you need to replace the windshield make certain that ONLY a Honda OEM windshield is used or the sensing features will not re-calibrate. There is nothing in the owners guide that tells you that. We wish there was an add on scuff guard at the tailgate to avoid chips/scratches when putting things in the back.

3rd CRV and the Best one!
I wanted to upgrade my 2012 CRV XE AWD and looked at the Touring model for the past year. Key features I was looking for included Home Link, Blind Spot Mirror, automatic lift gate. What I did not expect is the Technology loaded touring model provided, including Nav, lane departure and speed control cruise with automatic braking. Better headlights and interior upgrades such as memory seats for driver and rear heating and cooling vent for rear passengers were pleasant surprises. Update- after 6 months of steady driving, I must say this is a wonderful SUV, I enjoy the features that were lacking in the 2012 CRV with the lift gate automatic opening being the best new feature as well as the safety features in this CRV The ride feels firm with 18" tires and the rims on the touring are much more stylish. Visibility is clear and good both day and night. Regarding performance it is a four granted but driving around town turn the econ button off and there is good pickup, when on the highway and cruising put the econ button on and enjoy the ride and save some gas. Looks could not be happier, got the silver with black interior and it looks great with some quality wax on it looks great. I look forward to having this CRV for many years and could not be more happier. After 2 years of ownership, still enjoy more CRV Touring, has everything I need and more. Low cost of upkeep makes this Honda a Great Buy. I will keep this SUV for a good amount of years, still love the looks and ride along with the many features. After 3 years of ownership still going strong great car, low cost to upkeep it. Looks still great and can't beat the features in touring edition. Had to have battery replaced but covered under warranty so that is good for another 6 years. Final review Car sold and went with Mazda CX5

Dangerous during emergency maneuvers
If you are looking for A reliable around town car that you keep under 45 or 50 miles an hour, then this is a good vehicle. Otherwise this vehicle is very dangerous on curvy roads and on highways. Any attempt at higher speed, 65 mile an hour breaking or turning is quite dangerous. The brakes are non responsive and the body roll is excessive. Additionally, the front seats are horribly uncomfortable, there is virtually no usable cargo space up front and the headlights on low beam give no side illuminations. When you are turning a corner in the dark you could literally run someone over Simply because you did not see them. Good reliable around town car. Keep it under 50 miles an hour
