Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

This is my second CR-V so I like these cars.

Interior space is very good, no problems with rear legroom. However you cannot plant your feet against the bulkhead in the front passenger seat in the diesel as there is some extra heater system gubbins in the space below the dash.

Only comfort factor missing for me is reach adjustment on the steering wheel.

Overtaking power is excellent with big torque at 2000rpm.

Difficult to achieve the combined cycle 42mpg, though it can be done with gentle driving and by not exceeding 70-75 mph when the fuel consumption rises markedly. Short trips and normal usage are returning about 37mpg at present, hoping this will improve as he engine loosens up.

Road noise can be obtrusive on rough/concrete surfaces.

Faults:

Absolutely no problems so far.

General Comments:

This car handles well on the road and also in snow and ice.

It is roomy and comfortable. The only thing I notice is road noise on the highway, but not too bad. Lots of safety features that make the driver and passengers feel safe in all weather conditions. The addition of heated leather seats is a plus also.

Faults:

So far I had to change the fuse for the rear power outlet, but besides that the car is wonderful.

General Comments:

This Honda is great, the seats are very comfortable. The i-vtec is silky smooth. Its great for darting around traffic. So far I did not get to see how the 4 wheel drive works in the snow. The power train is superb.

Faults:

Both front and rear suspension are defective and make odd popping and knocking noises when turning the wheel, going over bumps, and turning corners.

The car has been to the dealer almost a dozen times and is still not fixed. American Honda and the dealer have both have refused to give money back.

Faults:

Maintenance light is often on.

General Comments:

CR-V is finicky city vehicle – works well on city streets - but performs awkwardly on country roads such as gravel or ground.

This vehicle is obviously not made to tow anything. So if you have a small utility trailer – forget it.

People keep telling me that Honda will not honour its vehicle warranty. These comments are coming from reliable people who have owned the Honda Van. This makes me quite uncomfortable and am treating the vehicle like it is made of an eggshell.

This is not a vehicle to purchase if you go on trips over 250 miles (400 km). The driver’s seat gets quite uncomfortable. I fee cramped in the front of this vehicle, maybe its not made for people over 5’10”.

Don’t put anything over the floor such as a plastic floor mat – the carpet will absorb the colour from the plastic mat.

The really good side of this vehicle is the engine. Good engine power for a 2.4 litre. Lots of pick up and go.

Feels like its going to loose control when you go over a railroad track crossing which is on an angle. Nice handling on city roads, but feels unsteady on country roads such as gravel or ground.

Not as silent as one would expect from a Honda. Actually kind of noisy in the cab even without snow tires.
