Transmission
My 2016 HRV just hit 66k and the transmission blew 2 weeks ago. I have read that many are having the same problem right after the warranty has expired.

Engine hasitation
I just changed a toque converter @5800 miles because it shake when I park for red light. After changing the toque converter, it improve. However, I also found that when I hit the break from 40 rpm to 10 rpm, and then accelerate from 10 to 20, 25 rpm, the car (engine) almost stop and you can feel that the something switch between 10 to 20 rpm. Is this right? It bothers me a lot. Another issue of this car is windows. All windows feel loose a little bit. You can shake the windows when they are down 1/2 of windows.

Previous Honda's Better
This is a poorly made vehicle made in Mexico. The horrific paint jobs that come through on these is a disgrace. Missing clear-coat, dirt in paint- panels don't fit flush, etc. I've owned previous Honda's in the past-mainly made in Japan. Take my advice and don't buy these Mexican made junk piles. I've regretted my purchase since day one. The selling dealer has been great however; they can only do so much. I cannot wait to trade in on better vehicle- and it won't be another Honda. Now six months later, the exhaust has a terrible rattle under certain speeds when accelerating. The overall quality of this vehicle leave a lot to be desired. I'm looking for a change this Spring.

Perfect College Student Car
I may be biased because this is exactly the car I was shopping for, and purchasing a 2016 model for $15.4K when new ones are going for $24K was sweet. My third Honda - should go to 300K miles. 4/2021 Update: Still going strong. No repairs needed in 4 years. 4/2022 Update: Turns out this is the perfect car for driving to your first post-college job interviews and moving all the stuff accumulated in four years. Lots of cargo space.

one of the worst vehicle purchases I ever made
Having owned Honda vehicles the past few years, 1996 accord , 2000 CRV. I thought the quality will stay the same if not a little better. I was dead wrong. I have low standards, however, I got this car for my daughter, thinking that Honda reliability will make us be worry free for the next few years. First issue, front windshield blurry in the bottom inch before the dashboard, hey, what can you do , its not perfect, its a $21000 dollar vehicle, not gonna bring it to the dealership to replace it, we can live with that. Second issue , no engine temperature gauge, I mean come on now, how hard can it be for Honda to put that in, okay , I guess we can just get a scan gauge to remedy the issue. Third issue, its been raining here in Los Angeles, the past few days, and guess what? the rear passenger side has some leaks ,primarily the seat belt is soaking wet, aside from that the trunk has leaks too, in the same side. I mean, wow , this is supposed to be Honda...what happened to your quality control.?I've only had the HRV for 6 months, at 6300 miles, garage kept . pampered and babied like my other old Hondas..Now I have to bring it the dealerships here in L.A. I'm not sure how long they will fix it or not and they might not even offer a loaner car, I think, hope i'm wrong ...what a disappointment. Imagine the molds that may be in those wet areas ...Now i'm stuck with this HRV, can't wait to get rid of it....
