2001 Honda CR-V EX review from North America
"Reliable, Versatile, A great SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not had any repairs on the car to date. The only time it sees the dealer/service department is for routine maintenance.
The only thing I have found that I would repair if I could is car noise. I am often checking to see if the windows are closed because of wind noise. They are usually closed.
General comments?
A reliable car at 50 degrees below zero and 90 degrees above.
I have slept in the back with the rear seats down and on the passenger seat-rear seat laid out as a bed. Both a more comfortable alternative than the ground.
Car is roomy enough for my 6'4" son to sit in the back seat or front seat. However, when he drives, his knees are up by the steering wheel.
I am not always the fastest start when the light turns green, but I can make it up steep hills and pass cars on the highway when I need to.
