2004 Honda CR-V EX review from North America
"Not as good as my 93 Accord"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
AC failure at 1yr mark, 30,000 miles, and AC again at 3 yr, 110,000 miles. Some owners have had 3+ failures. Definite lemon when it comes to the AC compressor, clutch and associated components. Honda is handling this on a case by case basis, with some getting 100% coverage, some a percentage and some zero. No consistent formula.
General comments?
Other than the AC, the vehicle is pretty solid.
