A great vehicle, just what we were looking for. Low mileage with a fantastic warranty.

REDUCED QUALITY OVER THE YEARS

Honda quality has really reduced over the years. My 2023 CRV EX-L has been plagued with issues starting at around 50k miles. From $2000 front facing camera AND shutter grill repair (in one visit) to turbo over boost causing the car to enter limp mode on another occasion, this car is LOADED… with PROBLEMS. The overall quality of the car is poor and the engine is underpowered under load. The transmission is sloppy and clunky at times. Now I feel air coming in near the window switches on the door. This car is TRASH!

Bubbles the CRV-EXL

Hello! This is my second CRV. I turned in my 2020 Honda CRV EXL (my first car) when my lease was over! I was so excited the CRV went over a makeover! TO START, I will be the Debby downer and start off with my complaints. Since I am 24 years old, looks and color does matter to me. I was extremely disappointed Honda did not offer more exterior and interior choices like Subaru and Toyota. To add, the front seats are beyond uncomfortable and nothing like my old CRV. The middle console is small and I do not like the layout. Lastly, the back window could be larger because I find it small when I am backing up. I understand these are more materialistic and personal preferences however, I will be looking at Subaru when my lease is up for more options Now, typical Honda- my Bubbles drives wonderfully in the snow. I live in Central NY where we get a lot of snow. Having AWD, ground clearance, reliability, and durability is why I have decided to get another CRV. I love the pickup on the highway, the gas milage, and how the gas pump you "touch" to open it. Also, the inside storage is awesome. I have so much room when I take my younger sister, her 80 pound lab, and my 80 pound pitbull on local adventures. The safety features are amazing and I love the touchscreen on my car. Lastly, I love the new AC/HEAT layout. It is super powerful! Overall: 8/10- I want Honda to come out with more colors, fix the seats, and fix the middle console.

This is our fifth CRV, not a Hybrid. I am getting 31/34 mpg. It’s a more stable and smooth ride, and it’s longer and wider than my previous CRVs. Infotainment and cell phone charging are also an improvement. Auto start feature is easy to get used to and all of the parking warnings keep me from scratching my bumpers. Honda really listened to their consumers. Well done.

Still like new in 2025

The advantage is we are now a one car family. The CR-V gets to do everything. Takes long trips (getting an honest 35 mpg) On around town trips to stores (is easy to park w/good visability) We are older, and getting in and out of this Honda is made easy with power driver and passenger seats. Service for this CR-V has proven very reasonable (Always use Full Synthic motor oil and get over 15K miles between oil changes. Tire wear is better than average, and with nearly 30K and regular rotation, should go another 25K miles. Interior is comfortable and easy to keep clean. The safety features all work well and we use all of them to keep us and others safe. The dealership where we purchased this car has gone out of their way to get us in-and-out on a very timely basis. We have moved now and trust the new service department of the Honda dealer will take good care of us too.
