1, the factory tires are noisey and ride hard, played with air press. finally replaced with Michelin 2, you hear the exhaust all the time while I accelerate 3, the biggie we had the honda 1.5 years it has the 1.5 turbo engine its peppy and gives good gas mileage, but it has a issue with oil dilution with gasoline,i called Honda American and they are aware of the problem and working on it. the car has 8150 miles and the oil was changed 3 times i am a engineer and worry about the oil and gas mixing and not able to properly lube all the internal parts so for now i have the oil change often. the ride is ok but note great ,we bought the best one a Touring model so it was not cheap. I will keep it for awhile to see what Honda does then if nothing I will trade it in for another Brand. Nov. 2018 Honda contacted me and said currently they are repairing only the CR-V in the cold states, keep checking my oil and if it goes up again have it changed. what a waste of oil and my Time!! 2-4-19 update, I sold the car in Nov.2018 with 8400 miles on it and bought another brand , no more Honda for me! these are more problems,the cruise control was not accurate did not maintain the set speed, several times we were driving and the collision alert would come on with no car in front of us and once it applied the brakes, there is a recall for the wiring harness in the steering collumn! there have been wrecks and even the airbag deplyment on people!last year 2019 Honda sent me a letter to have my Honda repaired for the oil problem and I called them and said i sold the CRV

I wrote my first review based on test drives. I bought the Touring model, loaded, and even added back up sensors and other accessories. I couldn't get what I wanted in my home town, so I bought it in another town while staying with my Aunt and Uncle. They loved it so much they went and bought the exact same car except for the color! I traded in my 2017 Mustang convertible for it (at a huge loss - 58% after 7 mos.), but it was worth it. The Mustang was great in every way except one - I couldn't get out of it. I am a retired senior (68) and it was taking a toll on my joints. My aunt also has knee problems and loved how easy the CR-V is to get in and out of. They traded in a Lincoln Town Car on it, and my uncle appreciates the large number speedometer. This car has a luxury feel, rides smooth and quiet, and has all the driver assist features that I want of the available ones except for a front parking sensor. It is amazing in rush hour stop & go traffic, great in rain. I expect to have it a long time. I think most seniors would benefit from this car, EX model and higher. I wrote about testing the competition (RAV4, CX-5, Escape, Forester, etc.) and there is no comparison for me. Give it a test drive next to other similar ones lilsted above in the same day! Then you will know where you want to spend your time and cruise the blacktop. For me, CRV was a major standout.

Just, wow! Picked up my 2017 CRV Touring 4 weeks ago and I absolutely love it. As soon as you slide in, the super cozy interior just makes you feel at home. Super comfortable, supportive seats with power lumbar support, attractive dash and control layout, soft materials everywhere, and a fantastic looking wood trim with a matte finish that looks like real wood. Overall, really high quality interior. The back seats have tons of leg and head room, plenty for a 6.2 friend to sit behind the driver. Rear seats are surprisingly as comfy as the front ones, with plenty of softness and leg and back support. The cargo area is huge for this sized SUV! I can fit 6 mountain bikes with the rear seats folded down, which is another big win win to me. As far as styling goes, it's definitely up to you to decide what you like. You may like the looks of another car better, but remember you'll always be sacrificing something. With this car, the interior sold me. I still don't hate the exterior though, it definitely turns heads (not in a bad way!), and I've gotten lots of compliments already. It looks modern, funky, stylish, and definitely has personality. I have zero complaints with this car so far! Do yourself a favor and test drive the CRV. You won't be disappointed!

Just to give a little history on our prior buyer preferences, we have never owned a Honda and in 2009 looked at a civic for a runabout but did not like the dealer's take it or leave it attitude. We have over the past 37 years owned a total of 22 GMC cars and trucks. So to say we are loyal General Motors fans is probably a bit of an understatement. Wife was in the market for a car to replace her current vehicle and had narrowed it down to an Envision or the 2018 Equinox. But to get the options she wanted ,was looking at spending 36 to 42 thousand. She was determined to do it for less than 30. So her idea is to test drive the new CRV 2017. On our way for a weekend at our beach house she decided since it was raining we could take the time to stop at the nearby Honda dealer an test drive the 17 CRV. Drove it, loved it, bought it. I must say it is the only car I have ever driven that I don't look for the speed control as soon as possible. That little engine and cvt feels like it is almost effortless to move this vehicle down the road, but getting over 31mpg in mixed driving . Reminds me of my duramax trucks like it has torque in reserve. Did have an emissions light come on after the first 300 miles took a week for the part to come in but was given a loaner at no charge while it was being fixed. Hopefully that was a rare occurrence and we will get to know the Honda reliability for ourselves. At this point I give the 2017 CRV a thumbs up. Well its been 18 months now with our 2017 Honda CRV and 32,000 miles on the odometer. I must say this car has a lot going for it . The worst thing about the CRV has been the tires that came on it from the factory. After about 15,000 miles they got so noisy that I didn't like even riding for longer than 10 to 15 minutes at highway speeds. At 26,000 miles I couldn't stand it any longer an put a set of Michelins on it . My wife immediately exclaimed the car felt softer on bumps and became almost as quiet as my friends 2017 rx350 Lexus. She fell for that little car again. Mileage now averages 34.5 in mixed driving and if you can stay off the interstates has got up to 39.4 on a 100 to 150 mile trip. Simply amazing for a car of this size. The engine feels even more powerful now and can surprise you if you are not ready for its surge of power when you floor it to pass. My wife said she notice the other night that the auto headlamp dimmers were not working . It might be going in to get checked out before the warranty runs out. So I must say so far the car itself has made us believers, but we tend to keep our cars 7 to 10 years and put 200,000 miles on them . This car has a good chance of making us long term Honda owners. So here it is 2020 and the crv keeps churning along. It now has 76,000 miles on it and except for a bad battery last winter has had no issues. The michelins that i put on at 26,000 still have 50%tread or better left on them. I highly recommend this upgrade from the factory tires. The mileage has average 34.5 on these miles an only drops when on long interstate trips. I assume the turbo has to run longer at 75mph. Received an extended powertrain warranty from honda in 2019 for 200,000 miles. I guess to quell owners about the oil issue i"ve seen online. So just change the oil an rotate the tires. At 50,000 miles a maintenance Light came on an had that done at the dealer. This included the engine oil and filter,air filter, cvt trans oil change, cabin filter for $330 dollars. A little high but it maintains my factory extended warranty on the powertrain. Would buy again, it's true that honda is customer driven an have an still enjoying the car.

There are several problems this car has in our view and a big part is value and over all performance. Almost pulled the trigger on another SUV but little lady saw this car and wanted to check it out. Aside from the fact the dealer apprised our car for $2000 less the anyone else the vehicle just could not compare to the mid size SUV's we were considering. Hated the CVT transmission and the engine made cheap 4 cyclinder sounds. Too much road noise and the worst sound system we had sampled and yes I adjusted it every way possible. Not a bad car and probably the best compact SUV out there but with the incentives and deep discounting going on in the mid sized market suggest you look around at what you can buy up market from this vehicle. Little to no discount or incentives makes this thing look over priced to us.
