The Honda CRV has the worse ac system i have ever seen in any vehicle ever and will not cool after about 25.ooo miles and i have not only experienced this but ever person i have talked with has said the same thing. The honda makers should do a recall and fix this problem big time because people pay alot for this vehicle and the ac stops cooling with very few miles on it. I would not recommend this vehicle unless you plan on spending a lot of money to get your ac repaired after about 25.000 miles.

Negotiated an outstanding deal -- really. Even had Honda run the hard credit. But on the test drive the LKAS couldn't find the road under conditions my 3 yo Toyota would have had no problem with. It has the tech but it doesn't work.

Don’t buy if you live in colder climates. They lose heat when you stop for any reason. It won’t warm up if you just idle. Then it leaks gas into the oil due to this issue. Honda says that’s just the way they are, just change your oil more frequently than the recommended is there fix. However it should be simple for them to fix it right, the engine is just running to rich. The service writer at the dealership said he fixed his by putting a performance programer on his. But that will void your warranty then showed me pictures of other customers with gas in the oil. Worst vehicle I have ever owned. It might be why they have a lot of them on the lot.

Early Ownership Impressions

Overall a great compact SUV. I am not sold on four cylinder turbo-charged engines as they are just not as smooth as normally aspirated 6 cylinders at idle or in acceleration, and it shows under acceleration, yet better fuel economy is the reward. We have yet to take a long trip in this CRV EX-L, so my comments are limited to stop and go urban/suburban driving impressions. Comparing this to my primary drive, a Lexus RX-350, this is not as refined nor as quiet, yet offers comparable (if not more practical cargo area) interior room. My wife left a V6 Hyundai Santa Fe for this, and candidly, somewhat misses the Santa Fe as it was a little taller and gave her a more commanding view of her surroundings. The audio system in each of these is superior to the CRV's. I guess one has to step up to the Limited trim to get a sub-woofer and better sound quality. These things stated, there is good, useful room inside the CRV and it is fairly comfortable to drive. Its Honda-Sensing Suite not only enhances safety, it also results in the lowest insurance premium we've ever had for a new vehicle. In its segment, the CRV EX-L is a good choice.

Happy with the features that are included with the CRV EXL vs other brands in its price range. And the CRV has a much improved ride and the road noise is minimal. The turbo 4 has plenty of acceleration for our needs. Only issue is the high cost of such things as an added tow hitch - much too expensive via Honda installed. And stock tires are not great quality for wear. $30,000+ should by multiple options, but this is the game all of the car manufacturers and dealers play. But overall, very happy with it. We finally found a different color than the usual blah Honda color line - red with gray interior. Nice Honda. Now bring out some green shades. Fun to drive. Backup break squeak is frustrating, and a Honda shop says that is “just characteristic of Honda”, which is odd. Still going strong after 36000 mikes. Very good car. Replaced stock tires with some high grip Michelins and they made a huge difference in traction, but lost a mile or two in fuel economy-but worth it in snow country.
