2002 Honda CR-V review from North America
"I luv my lil' truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
SRS light which recently Honda ext warranty on, yeah!
Had a leaky trans seal while still under warranty.
General comments?
I've had this car for 6 years. After the initial shock of buyers remorse, I have grown to really appreciate the reliability, economy and flexibility of this great little SUV which I affectionately call my "truck" because I have hauled everything imaginable in the back from lumber and garden supplies to camping gear and stuff for a weeks vacation, to my bikes and golf clubs. I love the hideaway cubbies and picnic table, this has been a very flexible vehicle for me, though I was sad to part with my old 4x4 s10 blazer, the CRV has been a Great consolation prize!
My only complaint would be comfort, the seats are very firm, but on the other hand they have held up amazingly and not broken down, like the more cushy ones tend to do.
