I have only had my 2017 CR-V AWD for about 2 weeks; however, I am enjoying it immensely. Three family members have one and they are very pleased with theirs.

Oil Contamination

We purchased a 2017 CRV. The new 1.4 litre turbo has a direct port fuel injection that squirts too much fuel against the cylinder walls. This ends up running down into the crankcase and diluting the oil. This is not good. Reduced viscosity due to engine oil dilution will result in shorter engine life. We immediately traded the car of on a different brand after only owning it for a year and a half. Because it was clear to us that Honda was not going to make any effort to rectify the issue. China has already made Honda recall all the vehicles over there, and a class suit has started in Georgia, so it made sense to dump it while its still worth something.

I traded a 2003 Honda Odyssey for the all new 2017 Honda CRV EX-AWD at the time. Black metallic with black interior. I was thinking about purchasing the 2016 CR-V, but then the dealer informed me that there will be a complete design change the following year. I was NOT disappointed. The new CR-V looks sporty, drives exceptionally well and definitely gives all of the 200 HP available. I happened to purchase the EX version and there was so many features included for the money. For instance, lane keeping assist, lane departure, blind spot warning with cross traffic, moon roof, and one of my favorite feature, wood trimming inside. I was very impressed with the drive when I test drove it originally. Currently, I use it everyday to commute to school, and it definitely picks up power on the freeway. If you use Sport Mode (S), then it will definitely boost up the acceleration. Gas mileage it says you average about 27 in the city and 33 on the highway. I almost ALWAYS average near 30 MPG on one tank of gas (and that is a combination of surface streets and freeways). Sticker price for the EX is about $29,000 but I was able to get it a little cheaper due to 2 trade-ins. Overall, you will not be disappointed, technically its my first car I've owned and Honda has always continued to impress me!

We bought a left over 2017 Touring (2WD) in early 2018. It was purchased primarily as my wife's vehicle. Overall she is satisfied although, like me, thinks the electronics across the board are marginal (we are tech knowledgeable). I am a very knowledgeable car enthusiast,my gripes are as follows: the CVT transmission is awful (after 1 year I don't like it), the electronics are marginal (so convoluted and slow), the door storage pockets are placed badly (unless you hug the steering wheel), the design of the back seat entrance is bad-if you lean into the back seat to get anything your clothes will rub against the tire, the selection mode for driver seat positioning does not include the mirrors, the gas mileage has not matched the listed ratings. We have driven Honda & Acura models for the past 25 years, our latest Acura being a 2015 TLX, and I am disappointed in it, mainly the transmission and infotainment system/controls. So what's going on at Honda? Following two years of use and about 22,000 miles my earlier comments stand.

I've only test driven this car, have not bought yet due to lack of money. the model I test drove was the EX-L edition. Let's just say, I test drove the Haundai Tucson, Ford Escape, and Toyota RAV4. They don't hold a candle to the new CRV! I love almost everything about this car! It drives smoothly in every area, and the handling is amazing. It feels like you are in a small crossover. The interior features are great, such as the 20-way power lumbar (on EX-L and higher editions I believe), the seats are extremely comfortable, even for people like be with back problems. Every single part of the car is high quality. Love the soft materials all around including the dashboard. A major plus for me is that the NAV screen doesn't glare and reflect in the driver's face, unlike the Ford and Toyota. I also really like the full LED headlights (on Touring model) and full LED rear lights. I'm a fan of all of the styling elements except for the wheels. Many people like them and you might as well, but they don't fit my style. I do like the rims style on the LX (base model) they are less detailed but still high quality. All around it seems like really high quality materiel. The plastics, leather, trim, and the Navigation system work really well. Doesn't take forever to load on the setup screen. Sitting inside, you feel like you're in a BMW or Volvo! Not kidding. Oh and the ''wood'' trim! Is amazing!! It's a high quality, non plastic looking fake wood trim that looks real. It's has a matte finish and a real wood color. And the reliability. CRV'S last forever! Not uncommon to get over 300,000 miles on the engine with no problems at all. Test drive this car if you want an amazing SUV! You will want to buy it.

I needed an AWD vehicle and drove several models. I chose the 2017 Honda CRV because I liked the interior arrangement and redesigned exterior. The middle seat belt needs redesign. After nearly 6 years of ownership I still like my CRV. When the car was new it had a water pump replaced, a seat repaired, weather stripping replaced, shift knob replaced (recall), and there is a standing recall in place regarding some mechanical issues if they arise. The Honda dealership/company has worked with me like a good company should. I am still pleased with my CRV. I just turned over 60K miles and still running strong.

When I was looking to purchase a new car I quickly came to the conclusion that I wanted a small to mid size SUV and narrowed my search down to the Lexus NX or the Honda CRV. I choose the Honda CRV and have been very happy, the CRV cost less then the Lexus but, has all the luxury features the Lexus has.

We own the touring with power pass front seat. Seat does not go up and down and sits too low and is very hard not like the drivers 6 way power seat. Also hard to get in and out of the pass seat. We would not have purchased this vehicle if we had known that the pass seat was not like the drivers seat. We had a 2013 Chevy Equinox with both power front seats and they were great but no pickup in that model. The new ones have a 1.5 liter. turbo engine. We are thinking of trading this in for the Chevy Equinox and the CR-V has only 2600 miles on it.

Owning a second SUV

I love this new 2017 CRV. The driving is very comfortable and the gas mileage is much better comparing to my 2016 Subaru Forester. The great thing about this CRV is that it has the option of Econ mode. This mode gives me roughly 30 MPG in mixed driving. Mind you that Econ mode still gives you the performance when needed. But you need to punch it in. When you are in regular mode, the acceleration is pretty good, feels sporty and great handling. Depending on the mood of the day, I can switch to different mode.

The car does a lot and is perfect for most uses. I had a couple of dogs and they fit in the rear with seats down perfectly. Compact and agile. Perfect in town car.
