2012 Honda Crosstour EX 4dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
My biggest complaint, With every control done by wire, the brake cancelling gas pedal control is the worst. There is a time lag from releasing the brake till the engine recognizes the gas pedal signal. Very discerning when you need quick reactions.
After 5 years, the drive by wire control is still a problem for me. The car is a very user friendly. This is my wife's comment.
The … navigation system is the best I have seen and used. No major problems so far.

2012 Honda Crosstour EX 4dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
Bought this car back in July of 2012. Rides like a 5-series BMW, tight, strong, very smooth. Traction control on car is EXCELLENT. Idiot hit me in rear end very hard, few scrapes on back bumper, very strong car. Great on gas too, the only jab is the power in this car sucks. But if I wanted that, I would have bought a porsche, not a Honda. Even so, it would be nice to have at least 70 … more hp in this 4 cycl. For sure when my lease is up, I'm getting the 6 cycl. Great car though, 4 REAL size people can sit in this car, and I mean 6'2" 200 lbs dudes and leave plenty of head and leg room. Cudos to Honda on this car, but please, MORE POWER in 2014.
