Honda CRV Reviews

I have had 2014 CRV for 1 1/2 years now. I have had to have the a/c condensor replaced twice (over $500 each time for repair) now because it had a hole in it and all the freon leaked out. This was caused by a rock TWICE flying up from the road and causing a puncture in the condensor. It is a manufacturer issue on the place of the condensor with no safeguard shield to protect it from road debris flying up and puncturing it. You can look at front of car and see condensor visible and unprotected. The Concord NC dealership Hendricks could care less. I now plan to sell my CRV (my 3rd Honda) due to these repair bills and NEVER buy a Honda again!

I'm driving this car - it look good. My friend bought it. It's 2010 CRV from the dealer. We're not the first owner but still on this age and its mileage me I know I really taking care of it. I'm not and my friend do drag racing to give up this transmission. I only remember before it gave up and lost reverse. I feel the engine brake suddenly slow and don't change a shift and when I was up the hill it hard and almost don't want to move. I shift it on a second gear. It moves and I hear something get wrong. And when I continue driving it is totally stop. I change shift to drive but every I guess 200 meters its engine brake too hard so I scare to drove it even 15 mph cause it suddenly stop.

Today my wife was on her way back home. And the CRV just cut off in the middle of the highway. We had called Honda about the truck cutting off. And then I learned about the recall. After speaking with Honda they instructed us to bring it in. I was going to take the truck tomorrow. BUT it caught on fire after my wife pulled off the highway. If you have a CRV DO NOT under any circumstances drive these vehicles. You and your family are in great danger. By the grace of God a lady saw the smoke before the car blew up... I've contacted every news station and I'm calling my lawyer to start a class action law suit...

I purchased my 2015 CR-V in last October. I noticed the vibration within days, then the shudders on acceleration, and lack of acceleration on a highway merge (seems to occur after a turn or corner after slight deceleration). I have been through the dealer, American Honda, and the dealer's corporate service personnel; all of whom deny the shudders and acceleration problems exist, and give me the same line about Honda looking into the vibrations, trying to get me to accept that it is only an annoyance. Today presented a new problem. At 14,000 miles, the serpentine belt completely broke while I was 3 hours away from home. Of course the belt is under warranty, but after 25 years as a loyal Honda owner, I am done, and I am trading the car in next week for anything but a Honda. The whole situation is deplorable. Shame on Honda.

A family member leased a brand new 2014 Honda CRV at Motorcars Honda. The body of the car is made of plastic! You could literally push the body of the car in with your finger! I didn't believe it until I tried pushing it in myself! Honda is bragging about the efficiency of the car, however, was there any mention on the danger Honda is putting their drivers in? I am shocked nothing has been mentioned to the public about the plastic cars. I can't imagine driving a plastic car on a windy day--it's so hard keeping a solid car on the road to begin with. If someone is in an auto accident, they would be dead. I wouldn't drive a Honda not even if they gave it to me for free.

This vehicle is a BUST!! Honda needs to recall this crap! Vehicle vibrates like mad whenever you come to a stop. Honda has a video bulletin on their website acknowledging the issue but have failed to provide any solutions and they keep deceiving consumers by not disclosing the issue. They disclosed it after you purchase it. Dealer refused to take vehicle back. I threw the keys at him and removed my plates. I will never buy another Honda and hope no one will as well.

I have had my 2007 CRV I bought new. And when my car was almost three years old, had to have the battery replace still under warranty, then three years later again I had to have my battery replace, and the third time in 2012, and then again in 2014. At this time I notice that I should have not had to replace my battery this many. Never have had to do this with any other cars I had. And I have had some bad car before. In 5-2015 took my car in to have them run diagnostic on because something was running the battery down, that couldn't find anything. Now 7-2015 took it in for the same problem but has been worst this time, and the start show to be bad. Contacted the main Honda office to see if they will help with the problem, am waiting to hear back from them.

Overall I am satisfied with my 2015 CRV. Purchased it in March of 2015 from Branding Honda, Branford Ct. I am having issues with the transmission whining while in reverse and drive, and the A/C doesn't seem to blow cool enough air on long drives and it also takes longer than normal time to get cool. I brought it in for the first 3,000 service and the shop Foreman sat in the car with me and tested the A/C. It registered 38'. Hopefully there isn't anything wrong with it.. my last 2 CRV's 01 and 07 had A/C issues. One of them completely broke down. Now I am having this transmission problem. Let's see if the service department at Brando Honda listened to their customers and investigates if there is problems with the 15's.

I bought this CRV just a few days ago. It started vibrating so much. I'm talking about this is a brand new 2015. I really need this fixed or I have to give up this nice looking but worthless car. I feel sick every time I drive this car. I don't understand how a big car company allows this happens and not able to fix the problems?

Electronic error on 2015 Executive 2.4l - The electronic system apparently has an error causing intermittent faults. While driving a loud sound that sounded like an impact was heard inside the car. All display screens (apart from the speedometer) blacked out momentarily. The radio lost signal. I stopped the vehicle to establish if something struck the car as it sounded if something hit the car but no evidence of a collision of any sort was seen. The clocks on display showed an incorrect time. Both the radio and settings consequently had to be reprogrammed. Two days later the radio just stopped again (this time no sound was heard) and it was necessary to reprogram the radio again. The local Honda agent informed me that Honda Japan is investigating and that vehicles will be recalled...

I am unable to connect my Iphone 6 plus to my Bluetooth on my 2013 Honda CRV. Your vehicles are not keeping up with technology therefore I am not able to utilize my tools that came with my car. I tried the troubleshooting steps, didn't work. I went to the dealership they couldn't do anything and blamed my phone company. Please help. I live in the state of Texas - cannot use hand phone. Are you going to pay my fines.

Rotating tires and inside of tires worn down on one tire. 10,000 miles. Taking to dealer, had same problem with 2007 Civic. Two sets of tires, later they replaced rear upper control arms. Reading about rear caliber kit or shims to remedy the problem. Otherwise good car. Normal low idle vibration same as 2007 Civic.

Vibration when car is stopped with the foot on the brake. I bought this car 4 days ago last night. My wife brought this vibration issue to my attention. My wife took the car in to get the cross bars installed and floor mats. I contacted the service manager at Hopkins Honda in Sunnyvale about the vibration issue. He states that Honda is aware of it and they are working on a fix. Now researching this issue, it has been going on too long to not have been resolved. They shouldn't be selling these lemons. My salesman said just put it in park. What a crock of **! I haven't read any of the other complaints yet. Honda better step up to the plate or there will be hell to pay from social media and the news in my area!

Just bought a CRV 2015 EX, very happy with the handling and comfort. But the vibration issue drive me crazy. Lately somebody at customer service at my local dealer call me yesterday to tell me that the vibration issue is resolve now. They fix me an appointment Friday. End of this shuddering issue. Tell you about it.

I had to bring or have my crv 2012 picked up due to the battery dying. The kicker is they were going to charge me on the last battery because they said that my warranty expired. Needless to say, I raised hell and they didn't charge me. Then a few months later there was a recall on something to do with the battery sensors or cable. Of course I brought the letter in for them to fix the problem. I'm sure they thought I was going crazy. Now my car sounds like a little truck, putt putt noises, my gas cap light went on. So I added sea foam cleaner to the tank and filled up with premium gas. We will see! Still might take it in.

I among other 2015 CR-V owners experience extreme vibration in my car when idling and accelerating. It is horrible to drive. I get motion sickness from the shaking. I'm furious to find out that this has been an issue since the fall of 2014, yet the dealership failed to mention this when I bought the car in April 2015.

I am an older driver. I do not go to work. The Honda battery goes dead quickly. I only use the car once or twice a week. I bought it new from the local dealer. It now has a little over 10,000 miles. I paid cash with no trade in car. I drive the car every few days. The battery has to be jumped to start. I am told it has a lot of stuff running even when I am not using the car. I am especially unhappy that the radio will not work. It just blinks. I have almost never had the radio working. The dealer says I should make an appointment to bring it into service for them to fix. This is a poor solution that I should take it there every few weeks.

Bought a 2014 Honda CRV, used, had 19,900 miles on the car. When I went to press on the break at highway speeds, whole front end of car vibrates. I knew the rotors were warped and took to dealership to replace rotors. They said they would on turn the rotors. I said this will not fix the problem and that the rotors will warp again. I now have 35,500 miles on the car and the rotors are warped again and will need to be replaced. I think the problem is they have the same rotor on the cars when the cars had 15" tires, now they have 17" tires which heat up the rotors too much and cause them to warp. Anyone else have this problem???

I've had my Honda (2014) for about 10 months. On the 3rd month of having it. I noticed that every time you turned the car on when it was cold. It made a really loud rattling noise. I brought back to the dealer and they told me I have to wait for a recall. Now it's hot and it's happening even more now. I took it back and they told me basically that there is no fix for it yet and I have to basically suck it up and continue paying for a defective car.

My 2011 Honda CR-V has had vibration issues since low mileage. (20k to 30k) Tried everything to fix issue. Balance and rotated tires. Brand new tires put on. Took it to Honda when it had 59k on it, was told it was wheel bearing. Replaced, still same vibrations from frontend of vehicle. All they was concerned with was call it something, the power train warranty expires at 60k. Tried replacing front CV joints, nothing helps this vibrating. So disappointed with Honda. Called and complained to Honda, was told they wasn't concerned, it was all my responsibility and out of warranty. I told them that was fine but others would be warned that these CRV has some serious issues. Just don't want others to pay big money for something that vibrates everywhere you go. Shame on Honda.

My car has 19,000 miles when the rotor and pad on the rear driver side... am told it is not a warranty item because it is environmental cause... needless to say, I paid $268 for repair but spoke with Honda America and was reimbursed $200. However, two days later, my car had no heat... and at 20,000 miles I am told I need a radiator because debris in the road made a hole in the radiator and the car leaked all of the antifreeze... Again, they are telling me it is not a warranty item. I am so upset because I need to pay over $600 for the repair... am stuck... so, am ready to turn in the car. This is my third Honda and the second CRV in 4 year. Had a Honda Accord for 10 years and never did anything other than oil change, a battery as well as tires... 179,000 of no issues... This car has been a problem from day one. Never buying a Honda again... Going back to Toyota or Subaru...

My Honda CRV 2010 had starter issues. At 45000 miles noticed noise by starting. At 50000 I was told Starter is bad and need to be replaced. (Dealer wanted $700 plus diagnostic fee of $115, other Mechanic replaced with Remanufactured starter (Told there are no new). Again few days ago at 72000 miles suddenly starter stopped working and I had no other choice to get again new starter, $485. (Dealer $750 with same brand.) I am very angry. It has never happened to me to any car I had in my life. Before that had door lock problem and now this. Replacing starter once a year plus all trouble and aggravation for towing the car.

Owned since 11/2014. It's a 2015 Honda CR-V with less than 7k miles on it. It's vibrating a little already. The stereo keeps disconnecting from my iPhone 5s, which the dealership said would definitely work with my car. Also the talk to text has never worked. Even tried it with a Galaxy S5 too. Then there is the AC. It stinks!!! The front vents don't blow very well at all even on max. You can't feel it if you use the feet and floor option. Takes forever to cool off. Reviewing online I guess there's a recall now, but I was never notified so I doubt it will fix any of my problems. I love Hondas. Not sure if I'll be buying another one after this one. Come on Honda make it right. I didn't pay over 30k for something that doesn't work right. Ugh. By the way, please stop using such a light colored interior. The interior on my 2006 Honda Civic ex was much better. This one now gets dirty so easy.

6 months ago I noticed an intense "wobble" or "shimmy" when accelerating in my 2011 Honda CRV. It's at its worst when driving at higher speeds around 40-60 mph. My mechanic says he has seen this same problem a dozen times over the last 3-4 years and has thrown parts and labor at the problem with no success in fixing the issue. Honda customer service has no record of anyone else experiencing such a problem. Is there anyone else who has dealt with this issue?

2015 Honda CRV - The first thing I noticed was the rough idle. I had taken it in for a minor problem that I forgot what it was about. I had also told the service department about the rough idle. Nothing was said when I picked up the vehicle. I now have 3700 miles (three months old) and the rear hatch window blew out while sitting along the curb. The temperature was about 103 degrees. I had the sun roof cracked to let some of the hot air out while it was sitting. I had glass blown about six feet behind the car. That indicated that it blew out from the interior. The vehicle was also locked.

The Service department took care of the problem and everyone in the service department were wonderful to work with.

I purchased the 2015 Honda CRV in Dec. 2015 and loved it and had no issues until 5/15. While driving 80 mph on the interstate my car suddenly slowed down went from 89 to 60 and then kept going down. As I pushed the gas it would not accelerate. Had to put on fishers and drive home under 40 miles an hour. If I stopped at red light it would barely get up to 20 to 30. The engine light was flashing. Drove it home and was going to call a tow truck but my husband started it up and we drove it to Honda. They could not find an issue.

My 2015 CR-V EX also has the vibration issue at idle. Noticed it the 2nd day. I wish I had read these reviews earlier or that Fisher Honda in Boulder, CO had the decency to tell me this was a possibility and to look for it during my test drive. My first brand new car. I feel super disappointed and wronged. A Honda loyalist no more.

We purchased a new Honda CRV 2015 from Courtney Honda in Milford, CT. After a few days, we noticed that after car has been driving for more than a few minutes, that when you have to stop and apply brakes the car begins to shake. It would shake so hard we would have to keep car in neutral when at red lights or stop signs. The dealer claimed they knew nothing about this and Honda Corporate had no fix but was working on it... and still is. We didn't want to own the car for fear of future issues with this model- even if Honda is able to find out some fix for this issue.

I just bought 2015 CRV - EX. The test drive route we took was long but there were now stops. Now that I've been driving it around, I find the vibration issue completely unacceptable. It gives me a headache. I can put the car in neutral and hit the gas a little at stops and hit the gas a little to stop issue but I can probably buy 99% of the other cars offered and I won't have to do this.

I am extremely disappointed with HONDA! My husband and I purchased a Honda CRV in 2012 because our family was growing and we needed more space. We decided to get this vehicle, in August make the 3 years that we have this car and every year there is something wrong with it. The first year the shift gear was stuck, we took it and they said that there was a recall on that piece. No problem they fixed it!

This car is a lemon. It has had 2 recalls (battery & door latch). In for repair x2 for alarm issues. In for repair x3 for TPMS issues. Leak in frame caused flooding in trunk. Washer pump had to be replaced x1. Driveshaft has broken.

New purchase 2015... Vibrated from day one. Sued the dealership and they agreed to cancel the sale. Bought a Toyota RAV4. Couldn't be happier!

My car was purchased in November 2015. In that time period to now I have 7000 miles. I average around 23 mpg. This is quite lower than advertised. Is there anything that can be done. One of main reason for purchasing this vehicle was it good gas mileage which I am not getting.

Bought new 2015 Honda CRV in October 2015 from Atamian Honda in Tewksbury, MA. It has the usual vibration problem so many people have identified online, and that is very annoying. But this vehicle also has a problem where, intermittently, pressing the accelerator leads to the car seeming to die. In the 7 months that I've had it, it has happened 9 or 10 times. When pressing the gas pedal, you expect the car to accelerate, but at times, it does the opposite - you see the rpm go towards 0, and car "feels" like it just died. After a couple of seconds it recovers. Trying to pull onto the highway, and having this happen is unsettling.

I have a 2012 Honda civic and every 1-2 weeks my battery goes dead. I can't trust that my vehicle is going to be reliable which is frustrating. Going to get the battery checked.

Do NOT buy this car until the Vibration issue is fixed. I bought a 2015 CR-V Touring on NOV 2014 and am very disappointed by the vibration issue. Honda has acknowledged the issue and posted a video showing why it is causing the vibration. Do NOT buy this car until Honda fixes. All owners need to document the issue with the manufacturer by calling them at American Honda Customer Service 1-800-999-1009 Option 7. Provide your VIN# and Contact Information. You will be contacted when a fix is ready. As of APR 30, 2015, there is no fix date or whether a fix is possible.

Brand new CRV 2015 1018 miles oil leak - I have a slow oil leak bottom of motor where what look like the transfer case bolts to motor... it's right by drain plug - it's not the plug... it's a seal or gasket. Any one else have this problem Honda says they see oil but can't find cause...

I have always had Toyota my entire driving career, and I am very satisfied. This one time I went by the looks and bought a CRV, makes me feel like the biggest mistake I have made. 2015 CRV EX has some serious issues with transmission and engine mismatch; hence all the vibrations in the drive-train. There are three main issues with this car: Vibrations at all speeds mainly when accelerating gently. TPMS light keeps coming on despite of the tire pressure. Rough idling. I have filed a formal complaint with American Honda and the dealership. Both of them claim that the issues have been reported and they know about the 'problems' but these are within manufacturer's specifications; however a fix is being researched (go figure!). I spoke to the dealership that tells me to sell the car outside and buy something else. Extremely disappointed at my first (and last) Honda.

I recently bought a 2015 HONDA CRV EX AWD. First, let me say I am NOT a Honda advocate. The 2015 Honda CRV has major issues with the CVT and engine combination that cause major vibrations at idle and between 20 and 50 MPH depending on load. When I start to increase speed of Brand new CRV at 20-22 m/h and from 40 to 43 m/h, I feel Vibration/Shuddering, and shifting of automatic transmission not smooth at all. So, I took to Joyce Honda Service Center on 04/04/2015 and the work order is **. They did not do anything. Maybe they are not able to do anything. I am really upset, disturbed and unhappy with American Honda Motor Co., Inc. as well as Joyce Honda due to this defect in my new Honda CRV.

Leased a 2015 Honda CR-V and after I took it home the very next day I felt a vibration and shudder while driving it. I returned with truck the next day and they advised it was normal. I did research to find out that the new 2015 CRV has a vibration and shudder to it. This has been going on since 2014 of September. The service manager of Honda called me to advise there is a bulletin but no fix to it and it's not a safety issue. I am so unhappy with this dealership no one wants to give me another truck nor do they want to help. I will never buy another Honda.

I recently purchased the new 2015 Honda CRV Touring and the vibrating/idling issue has gotten worse. I'm totally disappointed with Honda Canada. I've called them numerous times and they are not willing to recognize the problem. They say it's the "characteristics of the car." This will definitely be the last time I buy a Honda Product. I've already told others who were interested in purchasing a CRV and decided to purchase another SUV which they are very happy with.

I have had a similar problem with my 2014 CRV!!! The problem began with less than 7,000 miles. I have had my vehicle at Honda several times. Honda claims no responsibility. All idiot lights on, diminished horse power, dimming of radio, no speedometer, no air conditioner, no rpm. Triggers seem to be going over bumps and humidity. Happens sporadically and intermittently. Seems more frequent due to humidity, for example not so much in the winter but during spring & summer often. Honda has had the vehicle several times, over 30 days total. They claim to have replaced the wire harness but said that it was a missing cap not the wiring. Meanwhile I have no choice but to drive it.

Purchased Dec. 2015. Left in garage for the winter due to weather. It has 265 miles on it - had 148 miles when purchased. Drove several times to dealer to verify the vibration. I will not drive it again. Cannot get dealer to return this - EVEN AS AN EXCHANGE FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE OF EQUAL OR MORE AMOUNT - Even Honda dealers don't want these cars back.. I am going to start taking it in for repair - Lemon Law is coming my way. I paid $30,000 for a vibrating car. Not acceptable. I have my attorney (my son) advising me on this. Honda, this is not going to fly - work too hard to purchase this!!! SO ANGRY...

Traded in my 2003 Honda Accord (185,000 miles) for a new 2014 CRV in November 2014. After the first oil change (performed by Honda) the VTC ACTUATOR grinds and rattles upon starting the vehicle. Called Honda and scheduled an appointment for the issue on April 12, 2015 (my husband and I own the vehicle for 6 months). Upon arrival my husband explains to the service department the issue with the car and shows them a recording of the sound; since the rattling and grinding happens randomly but consistently. Honda's service department did not look at the vehicle to confirm or document the problem associated with the vehicle. They hand my husband a print out that according to Honda Customer Service is an "operating condition" that they have yet to find a solution for.

I just purchased a 2015 CRV. The dealership was great, however when I got home and really looked at the car, I noticed that the drivers side seat was not finished off. You can see where the seat were cut from the mold. I checked the Rav 4 and Escape, both seats are finished at the bottom. What a disappointment. Poor quality. It looks like they just pulled the leather seat cover over the seat and tossed it in the car.

I felt vibration one week after buying 2015 CRV EX in March 2015. I reported it to dealership, the salesman told that "you may not drive probably for a new car," so I thought I should observe it for a period of time. But the situation was getting worse and worse. I called the dealership again, and sent the car back to the service dept. for further check. The service advisor told "It is not only you have this problem, and Honda Headquarter already knew this. We cannot fix it and are waiting for instructions from them." I came back home and checked online and found this problem has been existing since last year. Honda did not try to fix it, but still put CRV on the market. If they stopped selling when the problem occurred, I and more customers won't be become new victims. At the same time, Honda can reduce the damage on its reputation.

I know most will write a review to complain and few to praise. So here it is. I have a 2009 CRV with 142000 km. I am the original owner. It has always been serviced by Honda at all regularly scheduled intervals. I have never had any serious issues with the car. My minor complaints are as follows: 1) When slush gets into emergency brake and freezes, it may be difficult to release the break. 2) The car does not retain heat well, it seems to let the cold air in (and dust from gravel roads). 3) The car is a tad noisy (road noise not engine noise). 4) Clothe seats mark easily (even watermarks).

I recently bought a 2015 HONDA CRV EXL AWD. First, let me say I am a Honda advocate. I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on their product, which historically have been amazing. The 2015 Honda CRV has major issues with the CVT and engine combination that cause major vibrations at idle and between 20 and 50 MPH depending on load. Particularly when driving the CVT feels like it will come apart. No company nor engineer should have ever released the car with this known defect. This is a class action lawsuit waiting to happen. Come on Honda, own up to the problem and either fix the CVT or replace the unit or the car for loyal owners. This problem will just grow and grow until it is a nightmare for your company.

My son and I were standing talking and he was leaning on my car passenger front fender in front of door. He stretched and arched his back and it pushed in the fender. It is so flimsy I am worried that it will be all beat up in no time. I am in shock that could happen like that. I was so in love with this car, now so worried it is the freakiest thing I've ever heard of. Is this normal, it seems that some support behind is missing. We bought the AWD touring package, really expected a lot more for $34000.

New 2015 crv .. 2000 miles. Vibrates, I'm pissed. Bought it Dec 10th 2014. Had it 3 months noticed it vibrating. I figured I was used to driving a six cylinder, it was how a 4 cylinder was supposed to feel. Looked online, people are livid. It vibrates at idle ONLY after 20 min of driving. My test drive was 5 min. Honda, no fix YET! 1st new car that was defective from jump. Honda is still selling them. Pathetic!

After my CR-V sits for approximately 4 days, the transmission makes a sound when I put it in reverse. It feels locked then seconds later it releases. As long as I drive it everyday, I never hear this sound.

Purchased a 2012 Honda CRV in 2013 with 16k miles. Car drove beautifully until it started making a rattling noise on cold starts Summer of 2014. It was rare enough that sometimes I'd forget there was even a problem. Since then it now makes the noise on cold and warm starts. I am so embarrassed at work to turn it on when people are around. The sound is getting louder and lasting longer. Never expected this from a "Well engineered Honda."

Love the car but not too pleased with the new TP system. My old car had the warning when the tire was going flat. The light came in on my car today. Naturally I think I am getting a flat. I read the book and saw the new things that are on the car. Okay, I take the car into the dealership and the service guy tells me that there is a button that I push and it re-calibrates the tire and that if the light came on again, it would mean I have a problem. Okay fine. He also said to read the book. Yes it tells me to re-calibrate it when I add air or have the wheels rotated etc. It does not tell you to hit the button when the light comes on. If it is true what the mechanic said, then Honda should put that in their book about this problem. Has anyone else had this experience?

I bought Honda CRV 2014 at the end of 2014. The gas mileage showed on the computer dashboard is 17 miles per gallon. I thought it just needed some break in time. We bought oil change package from the dealer and did oil change when computer reminders us. The gas mileage increased to 20 mileage, but after third oil change it went down to 19 miles. We did manual gas consumption check. It is actually 18.4 miles per gallon. I called the dealer and Honda corporate.

I have purchased about 22 Hondas. The last two were CRV's one in 2004 and 2010. Neither had any problems. I changed the oil and rotated tires every 5000 miles. Other fluids and filters every 30.000 miles. First one traded in at 135000. This one now has 105000. I will probably buy another.

I purchased this vehicle in January this year after owning Hondas since 1987. Soon after driving my new car off the lot I noticed vibrations at roughly the 2000 RPM level mostly while accelerating at any speed, but also during deceleration. This is very annoying during slow moving traffic or when the Econ mode is engaged. The vibration is noticeable too at highway speeds. I took it back to the dealer whose technician drove it, noticed the vibrations, assumed it was a computer problem associated with the new transmission, and said there had been other similar complaints. Later the dealer GM, service manager and another technician rode along, noticed the problem, said it was not a safety matter, and reported this is a high priority with Honda. They said it could be a year before it is resolved.

I am the first owner of 2010 Honda CRV with 48000 mileage. I could not start it. I tried to jump start it but failed to start it. I even replaced a brand new battery but still could not start it. it is very annoying....

My battery usually goes dead very fast if I leave it in my garage for even five days - it is more worst in winter. I don't know why after so many complaints Honda motors is not taking any substantial steps to resolve such problems.

I live in New York and this weather has been brutal this winter. However, on the warmest day of the season thus far, my battery would not start. I had just picked up one daughter from the middle school and drove to the elementary school to get my younger daughter and when we got back to the car it wouldn't start!! I called Honda to complain as I only have 3100 miles on the car, and I was informed that I have free roadside assistance for one year... I requested to have the battery changed as the car is 8 months old and was told, "You have free roadside assistance for one year." I bought this car because I need something reliable. My job isn't going to wait for roadside assistance and neither will my young children's schools!!

I just bought a Honda 2015 CRV LX and I am experiencing engine/transmission problem whenever the gear shifts automatically between the 20 to 45 mph speed range. I called Northwest Honda and I was told that I would pay for the diagnostic charge, $100 plus or minus depending on time spent by the mechanic. I was upset because it is a brand new car and I will spend money for a "built-in" problem supposedly with the CVT/new 2015 Honda CRV engine combination. I checked the Internet reviews and I found out that what I am experiencing is the same as what most new 2015 Honda CRV owners are also experiencing. The sad thing here is that Honda seems not to care at all about this problem.

Intermittently, I have an issue with my rear hatchback lock not unlocking. It appears to happen when the temperature is freezing or below. I have brought it into the dealer twice, but of course it works when there. I would have to leave it overnight but they would offer a free loaner car so I am unable to leave it.

Crv never heats up, very frustrating. Vibrates, 7 yr old daughter thinks she at an amusement park. Now I have a gas/oil smell when I have the heater on. - 7 degrees outside and I have to have the windows partially down. Dealer was unable to find problem. I can understand that, does not happen every time. I trust my dealer's mechanics. Brought my CRV back again today. Service manager looked at it. Sprayed engine with a cleaner. He said if problem continues to bring it back again. I traded in my loaded Accord on this vehicle, plan to drive for 4 yrs then I was going to give it to my daughter for college. This will never happen unless they fix this engine/transmission problems.

Just recently purchased a Honda 2015 CRV. I can't begin to tell you what regret I am feeling right now. There are many issues with this vehicle, none were disclosed when purchasing it. There are vibration problems when the vehicle is idling as well as when it is driving. The new CVT transmission is not perfected and never should've been put in this vehicle. I have had five Hondas and have love them all. I am so incredibly disappointed with this vehicle I am telling anyone and everyone including local TV stations' consumer protection services about these issues. I truly hope Honda will step up to the plate, admit the issue and take care of the problem. Whatever you do, don't buy this vehicle.

I love my 2011 CR-V EXL 4wd that I bought brand new and have 75000 highway miles. Have had a problem with the engine shutting down when trying to accelerate past cars on highway. At 4000 RPMs at 70-75 mph, the engine light would go on along with other idiot lights and then the engine would die. After making it to the side of the road safely, I would put it in park turn off car completely and after 5 seconds restart the car and drive as if nothing happened. This has happened to me 5 times over a 7 month period. Prior to the stall out the car would shutter and buck like a fuel filter clog. Even at 60 mph on cruise control the shutter and bucking occurs.

Picked up my new Honda CRV 2015 AWD on Wednesday Dec 24th. Felt the vibrations but due to windy conditions and rain was not sure. Next drive was on Saturday December 27 and car shook while at speeds 50 and over on and off. Due to Christmas holidays could not report issue until Monday Dec 29th. Contacted salesman. He informed me to contact service department. I did and an appointment made for January 5th. They test drove it and acknowledged the strong vibrations were not normal. They kept my car for 2 days and informed me that they could find nothing wrong. They advised me that they would keep my service order open until they heard from Honda Canada. I had already contacted Honda Canada and they informed me that at present they could not find anything to help me but would inform me of any updates. I am still waiting and my car keeps on vibrating. Have to let go of steering wheel at time so as not to get headaches.

I purchased a 2013 Honda CR-V new and the first winter, my car did not start when temperature was in the single digits. Took vehicle to the dealer and they said a cell was dead and replaced the battery. Now, it's the second winter and my car would not start again. I shared my dissatisfaction with co-workers and found four other people that have Honda CR-V's which have the same exact issue with not starting in cold weather. One person so far took to dealer and they said they needed to re-program the battery? I will be taking my CR-V this weekend to the same dealer to see what they say to me. Please let me know if others are having this same issue.

Just wanted this for the record... Out of the 6 Honda vehicles I have owned the 2015 CRV is the worst. On the first day while at the dealership going through the interior set up, every idiot light came on! Wheeled it directly in the service bay and didn't see my new CRV for 8 days! They needed to replace the "head" on this brand new vehicle! Immediately after picking it up, I noticed the terrible engine vibration while stopped! CVT transmission shudders at the low speeds. Took it back, and was told "it is, what it is!" Help!

We've owned Hondas for 20 years and loved them. We purchased a new crv in 2013 and first winter we had no problem. This winter however, when it's really cold it won't start. Dead as a doornail while our friends who have much cheaper cars have no starting problems. Battery problems or just not made like they used to be?

Honda has changed the motor and transmission in the 2015 CRV EXL. Whenever it shifts between 15 and 40 miles per hour there is a tremendous vibration in the vehicle and causes me wonder if something is wrong with the motor and Transmission. I have brought it to the Honda garage where I purchased it and also talk to a representative from Honda and they are told me that is the way it is supposed to run. That is not a very good way to have a brand new vehicle run when you just purchase it. I am not at all happy with Honda and they seem not to even care. In other words they just kind of blew me off and then act like they even cared.

Cold air comes in through the door handles of my 2014 CRV to the point where I try not to drive it in bitterly cold weather. I have left a voicemail regarding this matter two times with the regional Honda complaint dept., but have had no response. This is my first Honda, and it will probably be my last.

We purchased a 2015 Honda CR-V TOURING on December 22nd and have not been able to get the OWNER'S MANUAL and the NAVIGATION MANUAL. Honda Corporation Customer Service in Torrance, CA says that they will send them upon request but that it will take 5 weeks. Now, 7 weeks later, they are saying that they are backordered and won't be available for a few more weeks. We need a Hand-held owner's manual and navigation manual - NOT a computer disk and NOT the skimpy 2015 Owner's "GUIDE" which came with the vehicle. Where does a multi-billion dollar corporation like Honda get off cutting corners by not providing an owner's manual with each new vehicle.

I own a 2012 Honda CRV and after 2 years I was told the rear differential needed to be replaced, and that it would not be covered under the powertrain warranty or the extended warranty I purchased when I bought the vehicle because I cannot prove I had the fluid changed at 20,000 miles. So basically Honda is putting the blame on me. I've talked to several people and have read numerous blogs and this seems to be a common issue. So why is Honda not standing behind their product?

The hesitation/vibration problem is noticeable (intermittent shuddering as if a wheel is out of alignment and/or the vehicle has just hit a patch of block ice, but related to the newly designed CRV transmission, a problem common to all CRV 2015 that does not yet have a fix) but what really stunned me was a sudden extremely high rev when going down a small hill. I was braking lightly at the time. (Service told me that the transmission downshifts on hills, so, using the brake caused this??!!) It didn't last long, but the engine raced so completely out of control that the vehicle did not feel safe. The noise was incredible. It didn't happen again for over a week and I assumed it was due to using the brake on a hill (!!??). (I stopped using the brake on hills and noticed that the transmission didn't always downshift, sometimes it shifted UP as the vehicle gained speed! What to do...)

At speeds between 55 & 65 there is a vibration in the vehicle. I feel it mostly in the seat so I am guessing it is in the rear. Had tires balanced and rotated at Honda but it still shakes. I bought it new and had the problem since day one. Mentioned it to my salesman but he didn't respond. I have read of others with this problem so I know it's not just me. Traded in my Toyota Highlander because it had high mileage and bought the CR-V for its size. Now I am sorry I didn't buy a new Highlander even if it is too big for us.

I brought my new CRV home on Thursday, only to find out Saturday, it has been leaking transmission fluid from the CVT. Now driving a Civic loaner until the problem is fixed (not impressed). I traded in my GMC Terrain for the Civic because my wife has one and was quite pleased with it. First time buying a Honda and most likely the last. Brand new vehicle and already a major repair after two days. NOT looking good.

I bought my CRV new in 2007. Other than regular service, tires, brakes, etc. normal wear and tear, I've experienced no issues at all. If I had any questions, the dealership was always there to check it out and always took me seriously. They fixed the one recall with no questions asked. The periodic services can get expensive, but my dealership broke it down into segments so I wasn't hit with a large bill at one time. It had over 200,000 miles on it when I sold it and it's still going strong and looks and runs like it did when it was new. I bought a Mercedes and I am having serious regrets that I did not buy another Honda. I think that says a lot for Honda!!

I purchased a 03 crv awd (second owner) 3 years ago. I had always been a Honda fan (2 accords and one motorcycle), and never had even a small problem with them. In the first year the AC system completely destroyed itself (no warning). To have a complete AC system replaced (the compressors come apart into the rest of the system)- $2700. Then this last Sept 2014 the ABS control module cracked leaking brake fluid and master cylinder was bad - $2300. I have also installed 2 new front rotors. Now a new battery, and starter failing. Not to mention a "shimmy" no one can solve that happens at 2500-3000 rpm. I think I am done with buying Honda. Purchase at your own risk. Honda is not what they used to be!

2013 Honda CR-V: Been having a cold engine rattle when temps are below 40f and reading related incidents from others have determined it's the VTC Actuator in Honda's that are poorly designed. Honda has no permanent fix. When contacting Honda, they state it's normal operation and not doing any internal damage. It doesn't fill me with confidence hearing metal on metal grinding however.

Honda CRV 2010. Aug 2010 Purchased New. With in the first two days of ownership. Highway Driving in the rain, I had to exit to the first service station and replaced wipers. How did this pass MVI? I called dealer to learn that's standard. Just 5 months along into January 2011. It wouldn't start on cold mornings. Dealer couldn't locate a problem. I even purchased a new battery. I've spent that winter and everyone since with my (CAA) Roadside Assistance number on hand. It's January 5th. 2015, less the 70,000 km on this unit and still having the same issues I had within the first 6 months of ownership. It don't like winter. I have had more tows in 4 years, (owning a HONDA,) than I've had in the previous 40. But this was my first time owning a Honda. I concede, If Honda are looking for their Lemon I have it.

Our new 2015 Honda CRV EX-L AWD. We love the car! It's run beautifully and the gas mileage is great! However, we were disappointed with the passenger seat lever to pull the seat up, while the driver side has motorized lever. For the price of these cars, they really should motorize both seats. Also, the phone/text option that allows you to respond to a text with pre-set responses - it would have been smart if they put a little microphone icon in there so you can talk your text. That's about it. Mechanically, the car has been great. The dealer told us this type of vehicle prior to 2015 has a Civic engine and 2015 has an Accord engine. Love it!

The outside air can be felt coming through all buttons in the door. In not even that cold night drive, the cold air penetrating around these buttons (windows and locking control, etc.) exceeds the maximum hot air coming out of the outlets which cause the temperature to be still cold. This is my 4th brand new CRV (1997, 2002, 2012, 2015). I had never had this problem before. Do you have this?

I Just bought a 2015 CRV EX AWD and just took a ride to go Christmas shopping (My first drive. It's my wife's car.). (19 KLMs on it at this point). I get stuck in traffic and I'm only doing about 25klm and I notice a terrible vibration at 1100 rpm that a brand new car for $40,000 should not have. I continue to drive the vehicle and shift it into neutral thinking it must be the aggressive new tires on it. When I shift it into neutral the vibration goes away. (Now I'm furious.) I own 4 other cars and none of them do this and none of them I bought new. This is my first new car. When we test drove the CRV we beat on the test vehicle and we basically sped out of that vibration range and it wasn't noticeable at all. With 30 Klm's on it now and only owning it for 2 days I brought it back to the dealership demanding a refund so I can walk down the road to buy a new Rav4 XLE AWD. Of course that didn't happen, and the service manager came with me for a ride (I know he was scared because I was furious). Anyways he told me that it's normal and that his wife's 2015 Civic with the CVT does the same thing. I demanded we take out another CRV on the lot to see if it does the same thing and it did.

I have had the battery die and leave me stranded 4 times. 1st time: battery died, I got it jumpstarted, took it to an autoworks store and they said the battery was fine (I had just uploaded an image from the USB/flash drive to the dashboard while running the accessory power). I thought it was an anomaly - too much drain on the battery, and it drove fine for another 2 weeks (across country and back). 2nd time: I ran the accessory power for radio/window for less than a minute and the car wouldn't start. Honda did the Nov. 2012 TSBs software update. Worked fine for 4 months. 3rd time: went to start car in the morning in the garage, dead battery again. Jumpstarted and Honda said the battery cable didn't have a metal-to-metal connection, so they "fixed" it. NEXT morning...dead battery. They've had it now for 3 days and can't figure out why it's happening. Don't think I can keep the car unless they can get a decisive answer.

I have Honda cr-v 2013. When it is too cold even if there is no snow, I have to scratch the windshield - not outside, but inside the car. There is a kind of snow on it. The second problem I have, the car makes a kind of noise when I start it (only the first time I start it during a day). The 2nd time I start it, it doesn't make the noise. Does anybody experience the same problems?

I drive a Honda crv 2013 permanent four wheel drive and I've never really been happy with the braking ability. It seems as if it isn't powerful enough especially when I had to stop at some traffic lights in miserable wet, foggy and drizzly rain. Visibility was reasonably decent so about 300 yards from the lights doing approx 25-30 mph, the guy in front just suddenly decided to stop. I was travelling with a friend in the front and my daughter in the rear seat when I had to engage an emergency stop. My braking system has abs as standard but it wouldn't stop. Kept trying with almighty thunder to throw my foot off the pedal with a horrible grinding metallic noise but just kept on going. Only coming to a halt when I impacted the car in front. My friend and myself were ok but my daughter who was texting on her phone and not aware of the situation got wrapped up in the seat belt and cracked her brow off the front passenger seat. Has anyone else suffered the same fate as I have with their brakes or braking system?

My 2007 CRV Honda will not start after driving and then being parked for maybe an hour or two. The car will not make any noise as if it is even trying to start. The car was diagnosed and nothing was found except that I changed the battery just in case there would be something that I overlooked about the battery. I still have the same problem today where it will not start. No noise of trying, just silent, quiet, and finally after several tries it will finally start. Needless to say that my wife is furious at this point!

Initially had a 2009 Honda CRV navi. Loved this vehicle, very dependable and reliable. Always loved Honda till now. I traded in my 2009 for 2013 Honda CRV, July 2013. Within a few months everything started with CRV not starting. It was left at dealership for regular service in November. I left it there for a week while I was away. When I picked her up from Birchwood Honda west in Winnipeg it would not start and it has been happening ever since about every 7 days, it will not start and most times it will not even boost. It has to be charge for 4 hours then boost. I had to go buy a battery charger in order to start my CRV every 7 days. I live up north and am 9 hours drive from my dealership, Birchwood Honda West in Winnipeg. I have been stranded in the middle of nowhere at times in -50 degree weather. I cannot take this anymore. I expect to have a reliable vehicle for 40,000 dollars.

I have a 2012 Honda CRV EX that makes a clucking sound when I turn it on after it has been sitting for some hours when the temperature drops. Last winter Curry Honda gave me an issue about bringing the car in on the weekends since it's not something they deal with on the weekends. During the week the shuttle does not go far enough, well at least that's what they said. Now that it's cold the noise has started, I brought my car in on Saturday 11/22/14 only to be told they have to be able to duplicate the sound. After sitting for 4 hours they were unable to come up with a conclusion. I'm not a mechanic but I know this is not normal for a 2 year old vehicle to make this kind of noise. I'm tired of the horrible service. Curry Honda does not want to figure it out and fix it.

When accelerating and I'm between 20 and 30 MPH there is a hesitation. When I accelerate in the same MPH range without the Econ on there is no hesitation. The dealer tells me it is the Econ kicking in. It seems to be getting worse so I end up driving without the Econ engaged because it is a hassle to turn it off to accelerate and turn it back on when above 30 MPH. Why have it if you can't use it?

My husband and I purchased a 2014 Honda CR-V EX-L model. From the very first week we had this vehicle we have experienced squeaky brakes. We have taken the vehicle to the dealer where we purchased it from and of course, the service department could not re-create the noise. The service advisor indicated that the morning dew and condensation was probably causing the noise and we told him the car was parked in the garage every single night. We finally took the vehicle to another dealer in which they reluctantly changed out the front brake pads. That fixed the problem momentarily and of course, the brakes are squeaking again with a vengeance.

I've had problems with my 2012 Honda CRV EX-L - it makes a crazy noise when you start it in the cold weather. Honda is aware of the problem because it is a service bulletin on this issue. It's the VTC-Actuator that is the problem. They don't want to do anything because it is expensive and my vehicle has an extended warranty on it. Also, It shakes really when at an idle.

2012 Honda CRV purchased new, only 4 miles. Battery continually died. Dealer found no problem, replaced battery, still died. Honda CRV club site indicates it's a common problem, fix is under service order SB** ("computer" "flash"). Couldn't find order, but then did. They replaced battery and did computer update. No problem since. No other problems with CRV.

2013 Honda CRV AWD - We bought this car brand new during the summer. We had issues with the passenger side air bag. The dash right above the air bag kept popping up so we took it back several times. They replaced the top part of dash that kept popping up, that didn't help. Then they replaced the whole dash board, that didn't fix it either. They finally had to replace the entire air bag and that finally fixed the issue. Everything was fine until we got into the winter/cold weather. Each time we start the car in the cold there is a loud rattle/clanking sound from under the car. We have taken it in several times and each time they are unable to re-create the sound so are unable to fix what they don't know is wrong. Here we are a year later, going into the cold weather and I am hearing this sound again. Has anyone else experienced any clanking noises in the cold?

Finished purchase at dealer just before close. The next day when I drove a short trip (9 miles) and was waiting for traffic light, I noticed the car was vibrating badly. My 2012 Honda Fit (was traded in for this CR-V) has no any problem. I thought Honda cars are reliable, but it seems I was wrong. Will drive this car back to dealer to see how to fix this problem. Is it possible to exchange to another one since I didn't drove it that much (around 20 miles).

3rd brake light went out on 07 Accord sedan with 21000 miles on it. Customer service said forget it.

I am the owner of my third HONDA.. first two 1) 1981 Honda Civic drove for 13 years with only a WATER PUMP replaced over 113,000 miles before I gave to a friend whose son then drove it another 50 thousand or so miles back and forth from school. 2) 1998 Honda Accord EX also had almost 13 years with about 109,000 miles and A/C was going and needed to replaces. New Year's Eve 2009 - we bought this 2010 Honda CRV, I only have 35,000 miles on it.. and 10/15/14 took in for detailing (every two years) oil/filter change and emission test. While we were at the mall they called me to tell me that I NEEDED Rack and Pinion assembly/CORE RETURN and then a four wheel alignment. I asked to check door locks as one morning previous week would not unlock... THEY REPLACED TWO MOTORS... ugh. POWER steering service also and then a SERVICE CHARGE.. WHAT?? I still love my car but I don't understand why so much was needed at such a short term mileage??

I purchased a used 06 Honda CR-V one year ago. I have had to replace the alternator (no problem), and have done the regular maintenance since owning the vehicle. Four days ago my car cut off while driving. Had it towed to my mechanic.....to find out the engine needs to be replaced. Very disappointed! The car has 130,000 miles. Turns out the timing chain shifted forcing the engine to shut down. I've never owned a Honda, but was under the assumption they were built to last.

My husband was driving back to Pensacola Fl from Georgia. ON the west side of Tallahassee the car started jerking like it was out of gas. He managed to get it onto shoulder of road and it just started not pulling. I called our roadside service and had it towed to Proctor Honda. We have 170000 miles with regular services by Honda shop. The transmission is completely gone, no warning. Had transmission flushed and refilled 9/9/14. Anybody have anything similar?

My issues is a complaint with the 'ease of use' for voice commands. This 2015 CR-V Honda has a very cumbersome set of commands for making a voice call while driving. The options are to say "Dial by number" (after which you actually have to say the entire phone number), followed by yet another command to "Call" or "Dial by voice tag" (after which you have to say the stored voice tag name), followed by "Call". This is just ridiculous. The system should be re-engineered so the only command you need say is: "Call" -- just two words, not a series of statements, numbers, then call. IMHO just the fact that you are saying a phone command would pretty much mean you want to call someone. That's a complaint I have about the overall design of the system for making a call....cumbersome!

04 Honda crv air conditioning - Complete air system went out. Honda had class action suit approved against them for this yr CRV. Called Honda and they said they could do nothing. DO NOT BUY A HONDA AGAIN. IF WE VOTE WITH DOLLARS THINGS WILL CHANGE.

My Honda CRV 2013 with 16,000 miles suddenly stalled on a hi-way putting my wife & I in a very dangerous situation. I called DCH Kay Honda Eatontown services. Manager is always out of the office and no one could help me. I called Honda Customer service - long wait to answer and was told to call my Insurance. I had my car towed to Autoport Honda in 22 and was told it was caused by a RODENT. And they replaced Air Filter and Mass Air Flow that cost me $427.17 because it's not warranty. Honda should put this on recall? This is not an Isolated Incident. The Tow Truck driver told me this happens a lot on CRVs.

I got a Honda CR-V 2014, and with only 449 miles the engine broke down when I was driving in the middle of the street. I am very disappointed and frustrated. The people of the dealer didn't even help me to tow the car neither to get a rental. The only thing they said was, "We will see what we can do." At the end, I had to rent a car myself... I had a Toyota 4 Runner for 16 years and my baby never fail, still running like new. I decided this time to buy a Honda CR-V for a change and because I thought Honda was as good as Toyota, but I made a wrong decision. Now the CR-V has been repaired but I am so afraid to drive it especially in the freeway. Something terrible could happen to me and others.

Honda CRV 2008 - The heat shield on the catalytic converter has deteriorated due to using aluminum. Only 96k miles on it and replacement cost is above 1k. And I won't pass the next emissions test. Honda should replace the catalytic converter. Recall it.

I have a 2013 CR-V. The brakes began making a strange noise at 19,000. I called the dealership - as the auto is under warranty. I was told the CR-V would be checked and when I arrived I was told it would be $50.00 to check the brakes. I asked several questions regarding this miscommunication. The answers were not helpful. I believe the service is important once you buy an auto for the dealership. I took my auto elsewhere for free to check the brakes.

I had a Honda CR-V 2005 LX. My wife parked it inside the Corp Office covered parking lot before 7 am. After 9 am, she gets a call saying there is a vehicle emergency. The driver side master switch caught fire and spread to the front of the car and now it is completely burnt inside. The fire dept and the police dept were called, investigated and concluded it was the master switch issue due to the origin and the pattern of burn. I had also showed them the recall notice and the fix that was applied by their authorized dealer.

I have had my 2013 CRV for almost exactly 1 year. In that time I have had 3 flat or almost flat tires, latest one less than one month ago and this morning the tire pressure light was on again! I did a visual inspection and couldn't tell that any were low. I'll check the pressure with a gauge after the car has rested a bit. The first three flats were caused by road debris. BUT... my previous car I had for 8+ years, I live and work in the same place and I drive the same way to work that I used to, and I only had like one flat the entire time. Tires had the after-market hydrogen installed by the dealer. Salesman told me how cool it was 'because that's what they do for NASCAR'.

My husband needed a 4x4... & I find a 2007 CRV... We picked it up with 88,000 miles on it... passed inspection thru the dealer (not Honda) on June 20, 2014. One week into it, I hear a popping noise on turns... under my foot. Take it to MY mechanic... & right above the front axle the body of the car broke off... & it turns out a previous fix welded the bolts. Yay! $450. fix... & my mechanic points out the completely rusted to the point of id of a bolt. Today... 700.00 front and rear rusted rotors, pads, calipers. I have a 2000 Ford Focus 170,000 miles, 2002 KIA Sedona 143,000 miles, 2003 Taurus 101,000. Never ever had that happen and my Focus tires were under water for two days! What the hell is it? I am going with after market parts for this and see how it does... Previous 1 owner have brakes done at 65,000 dealer done... 2011 in Schenectady. Papers were left in glove box. Gas mileage on Long Island... 22.3 city is good though. We got close to 470 miles from first full tank.

I'm from Malaysia and since we doesn't have 4 season, so I don't have any experience with problem in cold weather. My mum bought this CR-V 2013 for almost a month and starting to experience this rear knocking noise when U-turn, turning a corner sometimes even when driving on a straight road. The sound is like people knocking your car body from below. I scratched my head and can't figure out what sound is it, even tried calling my friend to drive and I sit behind try to pinpoint the actual sound coming from and all I can confirm is that sound coming from both side (rear) but not sure is axle bush or absorber. For the first service (1000km, Malaysia dealer), I send to the 3S Centre and complained about the sound and all I get for respond is they didn't hear the sound. So I assumed is "OK" and leave with my car.

I have a 2000 CRV, front wheel drive. It is the WORST vehicle, bar none, for getting around in snow that I have ever owned. It is so bad that it calls into question its safety for rain slicked roads. I would not buy another one of these, or recommend one for anyone. It is surprising to me that such a car would be allowed on the roads for any place that has rain or snow. Stay away from this vehicle.

The auto door locks make a God-awful racket when starting out from a dead stop or when speed changes at low speeds. There's also a computer part that's defective that costs $600 that needs to be replaced. Driving in 103 degree temps the other day and the AC quit functioning in an instant. No sound or anything unusual, just lots of hot air. We had 1 1/2 hours more of driving in the heat. Needless to say it was awful. After a little research, I've found many disgruntled owners who have contacted Honda about the same issues I'm having. Bottom line, in my opinion, poor quality and hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to repair. These all should be recall items.

2005 Honda CRV A/C - At under 100,000 miles, my air conditioning air compressor froze up and shattered metal debris throughout my air conditioning components. I looked it up online and noticed numerous complaints from other CRV owners of same/similar year whom have been trying to get Honda to issue a recall since there has been so many issues with this part anywhere from 26k miles on! I contacted my dealership of purchase and Honda Customer Service. Both places were unwilling to offer any aid in fixing this $1500-$4,000 issue. #buyASubaru #HondaPartsDontLast #thanksAlotHonda #IDontRecomendHonda #hotdaysahead #HondafixmyAC.

I bought a brand new CRV 04, 5-speed std transmission. The first clutch burnt out at 38000 miles. After a fight with Holman Honda, they replaced it free of charge... Reading 87995 miles now on the odometer another clutch burnt. 1325 dollars Holman Honda charged to repair. The new clutch in now is engaging much too early and when you take your foot off completely, there is another thump or bump. It also seems to be grabbing. I know it is not right. My family most of them drive std trans. I have a 94 Civic 5-speed with 178000 miles on it with the same clutch starter alternator. Will have to make another trip to another transmission shop and have them test drive it.

Three times in year two my 2011 crv had to be towed or get roadside assistance for battery failure. I would be having a coffee with the aux mode on while the radio was playing. The temp was about 12c. The dealer tried go convince me that battery life in new cars was lower. The car was left in aux mode for 15 min or so. This was crazy. The 4th time it happened I spoke with services manager and the problem was resolved. I had a faulty remote starter that was installed by Honda when I purchased. It was draining the battery. They replaced the battery at no charge.

Have a 2012 Honda-CRV. Have had many issues with the car not starting. We have taken it in a number of times. The battery was replaced one year ago. The car is in the shop now, waiting to hear from them. I have used a charger to charge the battery. In the last 2 weeks I have had to use the charger 3 times. I will not be very happy with Honda if I get out somewhere and it will not start. This is our 2nd CRV - the first was a 2004 and never had an issue. That is why we bought a second one.

Since start of summer AC unit of my Honda CRV 2008 Model (200 K) works for few minutes then blows hot air. It works perfectly fine in morning for few minutes after overnight rest. I don' t want to see my Honda dealer as I had a hard time with them when I had a loose brake issue and was given a quote of $4800 to fix it, which I got it fixed through my friend by replacing brake master cylinder for $400. If anyone has similar issue and found remedy for it please let me know.

The Air Conditioning on my Honda CRV has stopped working. I took it into a garage to have the AC person fix it. He said the AC compressor was finished and he replaced it with a new one. He took the car for a test drive and the new compressor died as well. I did research on this problem and it seems that this is a common manufacturing defect very widely discussed on the web and in YouTube videos by mechanics. Honda is well aware that the placement of the compressor was a mistake and it will be a recurring problem. The following link will take you to the class action lawsuit in the US. Honda has taken no steps to offer a fix for this to it's Canadian customers (**).

2013 Honda CR-V - Clicking noise has been going on for months. Sounds like it's coming from the front axle... or somewhere on the front end. One day I was doing about 65-70 on the expressway and got a loud clunk out of nowhere... like I'd run over something. Looked in the rear view mirror and nothing. So it was definitely something amiss on the vehicle. Dealership where we purchased it new (Georgia) claims they couldn't find anything when I took it in a few months ago. Will be taking it for diagnostics again this week - different dealership. Very frustrating. If we wanted a "clunker," we could have bought a beat up used car! This is not the kind of experience you expect with a brand spanking new car.

Took to the dealer twice and they said they couldn't find anything wrong. Asked for a factory rep. to look at it. He did. They replaced the transmission and transfer case a tire and drive shaft. When I got it back it seemed ok. Guess what, the rumble and whine came back. Took it back in and guess what, they can't find anything wrong. So they called the factory rep. Again waiting for an answer from him what Honda is going to do now. Told them I'm not planning on bringing it home without something being done. I drove a new one when I was there and it didn't have the rumble or whine. They said if I turn it in it would be like a repo. They don't understand I don't care. Well we will see where this goes. Seem like Honda needs some good techs. I'm 59 and work in the tool and die field and maintenance. I know when something is wrong. Maybe Honda should hire me and I could teach their techs how to troubleshoot. I would be open to that.

Honda CRV 2014 vibration above 60 mph - I also had the same experience with my new Honda CRV. I already took to the dealer one time and they also did the wheel balancing. But I still see the problem. It seems like a common problem with Honda CRV 2014. I also had the experience of driving couple of AWD cars and vans and did not observe it with any of those vehicles. The Honda, having so much reputation, should take necessary steps to solve it before it starts affecting their sales.

I went to my 2012 Honda CRV to start the car (9000 miles) . The battery would not even make a sound. I asked my neighbor to give me a jump and he did. I took the car to the nearest place I could and had a battery installed. They told me that the battery was still under warranty, so I should have taken it to Honda....but they were many miles from me and this place was a couple of miles....I needed to get the car going. After some hassle with Honda Corporate, they refunded the price of the battery. The dealer was the pits. They didn't want to do a thing other than make me pay for a new battery.

First off, I'm very fortunate to have a new car in this economy. That being said, I like my 2013 CR -V AWD. It goes very well in the snowy blue ridge mountains. But I had to put a more aggressive tire on it for snow/ice driving. Then the TPMS light came on. Took it to my dealer. They wanted $60 to even look at it. I can not afford to pay $60 every time I have to change my tires. Had I known this before I bought it. It would of been a deal breaker for me. I live too tight to afford a stupid light. The dealer charges $ to turn off. The 2014 models have a reset button under the dash. I read. I'm sure it is because of the complaints of this model.

After one of the bad storms in NJ this winter, the 4WD light started going off on the dash. It would remain on, not blink. I looked in the manual and it said something was wrong with the 4 Wheel Drive System. The light would only go on after driving a little while. I called Hamilton Honda and made an appointment. I had to wait a week because I needed a loaner. During that week the light started going on more often and sooner. When I brought it to the dealer, they said my differential was bad and they had to order the part. It took 3 weeks to arrive. They replaced it free of charge under warranty so I can't complain about that. My concern is that such an expensive major part would go bad after only having the car for 3 months and about 7K miles. Other than that, the car has been good.

In June 2013, I leased a new CRV in Ottawa Canada. As I drove the vehicle off the lot, I noticed vibrations every time I used the brakes. Given the car was new I believed it was impossible that the brakes were defective. Only the situation continued to deteriorate. About 3 months after I got the car, I went in to dealership (Dow Honda) and complained about the vibrations. After being told that it is impossible that the brakes malfunction, they agreed to test drive. I received a phone call immediately letting me know that the brakes were in fact done and probably were defective from day one!! They were replaced. However I am wondering how Honda is letting customers drive away in a car with failed brakes.

The car have taken to acting up. When you start the car and it is cold and put it in to gear it dies. The only way to keep it running is to ride the brake and the gas at the same time. It will continue to do the same until you have driven it for about 10 minutes. Once it is warm it will run but when you stop it sounds like it want to die.

I had purchased a brand new 2014 Honda CRV 2 months back from Sloane Honda located in Philadelphia. Last week, I observed a huge water stain on the roof liner stretching all the way from the Left passenger window all the way to the trunk. I showed this to my colleagues and they were shocked to see the same. Also the radio skips a lot of stations that I am able to play on my 2005 Toyota Camry. This is my first Honda and I am very much disappointed with the poor quality and craftsmanship of this vehicle. Too much hard plastic in the interior of this vehicle makes it look very cheap.

The new 2013 CRV I purchased from Honda Carland is a lemon. From the beginning, I have experienced starter problems. Last November when the engine is cold, it hesitates, shakes and feels like it will stall when I am between 20-30 miles per hour. Dealership says they cannot duplicate the issue and won't do anything until it can be duplicated. In addition, Honda Carland has performed my routine services and not completing the service! Really Honda.... and you allow this dealership to charge people and not perform the service?! Now I am paying on a car that is getting worse. Really? This is my second and LAST Honda. Next step... call the local news and report this issue about the local dealership and corporate. Now I do not feel safe in this car.

Returned my 2013 Honda CRV-EX to the dealership for the 2nd time for an intermittent grinding noise at cold start up. Problem started at 3K miles, was at 6K at time of 2nd trip. Brought 3 recordings of sympton taken over a 3 1/2 week period - Service Manager refused to view them. Had previously returned vehicle twice for entirely dead, no start symptom. Not the problems I expected to encounter with a brand new Honda.

We bought the CRV new in 2005 and have had only one problem. When the brakes were changed, the brakes squealed and we were told that was NORMAL, but when we complained they were repaired with a note "repaired at dealer's expense". We are now looking for a new car and the comments I read are really scary. First I looked at Nissan and found major complaints and now major complaints with the Honda that we love. Are all new cars junk now?

Transmission issues will not stay in gear shifts to neutral magically with under 3000 miles, dealer refers you to Honda which was a total joke. I would never buy another total pos trading it in asap. My wife's Mom and Dad were going to buy one, but after seeing the horse ** service at Honda of Kenosha, they decided on a different vehicle. Stay away, everyone says how great they are, our experience is the worst new car experience in my life.

I've had my 2007 CR-V since new. First battery died after 38 months. Replacement battery died after 44 months. It was top of the line Interstate. I'm old enough to have been through a few batteries on various cars. This is very unusual. I'm wondering if there is a design or engineering problem. Just looking at the battery makes me wonder if it is too small for the vehicle. This "you take too many short trips" etc comes close to nonsense. They should think up another one.

I have bought two Honda CRV vehicles. The first, a 2011 model, had its windshield break on its own during the summer. I showed it to the dealer and the claim was submitted to Honda. I was notified within two weeks that Honda would replace the glass. No problem, right? That's what I thought so I bought another 2013 CRV. Guess what? After only 3000 miles we experienced an extremely cold and icy spell. When the ice thawed I found the windshield had totally shattered. I immediately drove the vehicle to the dealer expecting that they would again make the situation right. Wrong! They stonewalled me claiming that windshields don't just break without stone damage, etc.

2013 model Honda CRV power tailgate failed after 500 miles. Got jammed when trying to closed and bent the hinges resulting the tailgate misalignment, where the tailgate was replaced under warranty. Has anybody else had this problem? Looking at the Honda report sheet, it has occurred before! But how many times?

Leased a Honda CRV in April 2013. I found between oil changes I was adding 2 quarts of oil. This is changing the oil about every 4500 miles. The dealer told me that 1 quart per 1000 miles is normal. This is BS. I traded a 2006 Buick Rendezvous with almost 100000 miles on it, and it did not use a pint in 4500 miles. I will not buy or lease another Honda.

I had replaced my low beam headlights 3 times in the last 3 years. My driver's side just blew again. It seems like there is an issue with the headlight bulbs burning out frequently with my 06 CRV along with a lot of other CRV owners I had found out about on different forums. Honda needs to address this issue and correct it.

Brand new 2014 EX AWD model that has steering wheel vibration that starts at 60mph. Been to Honda dealer 3 times w/ no improvement. 6 new tires installed and 4 new wheels. Latest visit had Honda district rep ride along and said it's normal for the vehicle.

I bought my fourth Honda vehicle from T&T Honda in Calgary during the Spring of 2013. This one was six months or so old with only 15K, but the previous three had been brand new. On the third day after I purchased it, I drove to the airport to pick up visitors, a trip of about 120 kilometers. On the fourth day I drove to the car wash, washed the car and then it wouldn't start (I did not wash under the hood!). I had to push it outside as it wouldn't take a boost from either a battery booster or from another vehicle. I called a tow truck and had it taken to the dealer. They replaced the battery.

As I was turning full lock, I straightened the car up applied the brakes at my home and an electronic noise came from the brake pedal then brakes are crap. Tried the car again and it was fine. The problem only appears when I steer full lock.

My brand new Honda CRV AWD 2014 vibrates-body, when I drive it 60mph and above on freeways. I took it to TAMAROFF Honda, Southfield, MI (where I bought the SUV), three (3) times already. First time I brought it to their service shop, they rebalanced the 4 wheels. As I drive it home, the problem is still there. Second time I brought CRV back, I had the service advisor drive it with me and he acknowledged there is vibration in the car. The mechanic did "dynamic" 4 wheels balanced this time.

I was considering buying one of the Honda CRVs for my daughter's first car but the reviews of the dealership customer service makes me back away. I know there are problems with a lot of manufacturers but I hate hearing of bad customer service.

2006 I bought a brand new CRV Honda and to date overall experience excellent. I have 200000 miles on it and I have kept up with maintenance. Now I am having a problem with the engine light sensor coming on. I took it to Auto Zone and the rep ran a test and said it's the Catalyst converter. I went to the mechanic and it will run me about 1000 bucks. My car is running excellent but I decided to get a new car. I would like to stay with the Honda family. I do like the Prius and I would like to look at the Toyotas also. I will decide base on the price because I am on a budget.

2008 Honda CRV rear differential noise and hard turning problems from 30,000 to the present. Fluid has been changed several times with problem returning after a few months. TSB Honda Bulletins 021 and 024 explains the symptoms exactly. Honda has been aware for years... Honda should have a recall. Honda CRV is a lemon....

First time the battery died was after it sat idle for 8 days, the car was 1 year old. That was November 2013. Yesterday it wouldn't start again after sitting 1 night, the temperatures here in NYC reached 10 below for a couple of days. Just came back from the dealer and they said, nothing is wrong with the battery. The issue is that I don't drive it enough to recharge, they offer to hook it up to some machine for a few hours to charge it up or I should take a long trip of about 100 miles. I am going away next month for a week and they basically told me the battery will die again and that I should bring it in before I travel to have them charge it up. Doesn't make sense. I've had about 8 Hondas over the past 20 years and this is the first time I've had this problem. To be honest, I don't think I would get another CRV and wouldn't recommend it if it is going to be used for local driving. Other than this battery issue I love the car.

Thanks Bill Kay Honda for misleading us in buying this car. By their standards they did not stand by and try to replace the battery that was going bad. I also was told by Honda Corp the warranty started when the 1st owner bought it. So the warranty was nulled. It makes sense how quickly Bill Kay Honda wanted us to purchase this car... Honda Corp Customer service was not very helpful.

Our 2011 CR-V suddenly lost engine power one day and was vibrating heavily. We took it to the dealership and found that mice had chewed through the engine mount wiring and some other wires as well. We paid for the repairs and upon getting the car back, immediately noticed that when we turned the key to start it up, there was a distinct bang from under the dash and also a vibration when stopped at a light or stop sign. Before we could take it back to the dealership to get looked at again, I received a telephone survey of our experience and naturally did not exactly give a glowing review since the CR-V was still having problems. The next day, I received 2 unhappy phone calls from the service department basically asking what why I would give such a review.

At 250 miles I started hearing a harmonic whine between 45 and 65 mph when I would decelerate or slow to a stop. At 1,100 miles, I left it with my dealer for 2 hours to have them check it out. Response, they drove it (nothing else) and said the noise was the transmission and "normal" for THIS transmission. Service manager said he called an Engineer at Honda and was also told "the noise is normal". I persisted. The service mgr asked the Honda Rep to talk to me. After a few minutes into a drive with the Honda employed rep, he said "I am not going to give you a new transmission" just because you don't like the noise. I was shocked. He made 3 other very rude condescending comments to me (too much to add here).

The passenger side door does not unlock when the unlock button is pushed. To open the door, you must manually unlock the door. The tailgate remains locked and needs to be unlocked manually. A very troublesome thing to do it manually and almost impossible when the car is full.

My right driver's door started smoking. The door unlocks as I am driving. I lock the door with master lock and it opens 5 minutes later. It continues to do this as I drive. If I drive for 30 minutes, it does that for 30 minutes. It is dangerous and drives me crazy. Called Honda and was told that there is nothing that they can do for me.

My parents bought a new 2013 Honda CRV in May 2013. They were in an accident last week and my 75-year old mother was in the passenger seat with her seat connected. Upon impact, her seat belt did not tightened and she was thrown into the dash, windshield and ended up almost in the floor of the driver's seat. There were no broken bones and she was extremely sore and bruised from this incident. No airbags on the passenger side deployed. The impact was on the driver's side and the air bags deployed and my 77-year old father was bruised and his arm was skinned from the air bag. We are very thankful their injuries were not worse but the seat belt issue is serious. She could have been thrown through the windshield. I would like to know who I can get to investigate this incident. I do feel Honda was negligent and should address this issue with them.
