Great SUV but it has flaws

published

I bought my Honda CRV used from a Honda dealership. There was later an issue with the air con breaking down in really hot weather and some mechanics told me this is common with this car. Luckily, The dealership replaced the compressor under my warranty! Other than this, the car has been fine. I always feel safe and secure in my Honda. It accelerates quickly, the brake system is fantastic even in wet weather, and it never slips or skids. I would have liked more leg room in the back, though. But overall, I am happy I chose this as my first SUV.

Looks good but a tad sluggish.

published

This has heaps of internal space and a huge boot but the motor is sluggish as compared to something like the CX5. I enjoyed driving this car for three years but I wanted more oomph so I traded it. I'd probably buy another one if they upgraded the engine. Headroom and legroom is good. And a few years later I wish I’d kept it. Expensive mistake on my part. CX5 is lovely but too small

Perfect!

published

It's a very good family car! Economic, spacey, looking good, good services after purchase, happy with it & don't need too change, still good as new! Good customer services in the store, good car when you have children! No problem at all in few years! It's basic model but really good!

Love it

published

We bought it to accommodate our new born son and his pram. We took the car in the morning & drove off to Sydney from Melbourne straightaway. It was such a fun ride. Honda CRV is affordable. We bought the CRV instead of the HRV because of the boot space. We are currently on a capped service of $229 every 6 months. Highly recommend.

Didn't miss a beat-great

published

We have had our Honda CRV 2007 since new. It was a city car for the first few years and then we moved to the country and we put it through a beating using it as if it was a Toyota Land cruiser! Loaded water soil, toed branches and trailers full of wood and it didn't miss a beat. Even the interior has remained intact and I have three dogs! I know it cost a bit more but in the long run it's worth it . A really comfortable car to drive no major break downs, except service. 135,000 km and still powering on.

Why did they remove the picnic table?

published

There is nothing about the new CRV not to love....except the sad loss of the picnic table.

Oh here we go again....I have said all I need to say in 17 words and I'm expected to waffle on for another 11 words, adding nothing worthwhile to my highly complimentary review.

Viberstion while in an ideal position

published

I am having Honda CRV VTI L Nov 2012(13) model. 50k in odometer. When I stop the car in the signal, I can feel the vibration (especially when the Ac is on) in my gear, steering, seat (massage) as well as in my right door(hand rest area). An year before I raised it as an issue with the dealer and they have advaised me to use premium petrol still no luck. Now dealer saying it is normal for the 4.5 year old car. still under manufacture warranty. Another service guy said it could be a mount problem still can't help bcz Honda won't replace until it fully broken. I am not happy to leave it and chasing them! Luckily service manager is good, chasing him to fix .

Excellent SUV

published

I adore this car, but!
Sadly, there's always a 'but!', isn't there?
The blind spots are pretty bad. My husband has dented it three times and whilst he's no Daniel Riccardo, I can't entirely blame him/ The shapes of the lower half of the car protrude and there's no way to tell how close you are (unless you're reversing thanks to the fabulous rear view cam).
I also don't love the touch-screen audio/BT system. It's very clunky to use, as are the buttons on the side of it.
Aside from those two gripes, it's a brilliant car.
And SO many cup holders!!

Very advanced system, great car!

published

Just switched to this car. The car runs very smoothly and produces minimal noise, and has a beautiful exterior. The interior system contains a touch screen, very modern and clean. It's also very spacious inside the car. Furthermore, Honda provides great car servicing too. A very reliable car overall, at a good price!

This car is so reliable. Still going so well even after all these years. Never had any major problems. My car is great to drive and I hope to have it for a few more years to come. My next car I buy will buy will likely be the same.

Great Car!

For the money you spend this is a great car. It is very economical and has good power. The ride is very smooth and the car look good. I am not sure what else you can ask for. I would definitely recommend this car to anyone looking for a family car.

One the best value SUV's in the market

published

Just purchased our 2nd CRV as we were so impressed with the first one. Honda are a very reliable car packed with great features for its price bracket. The SUV is perfect size for our young family, easily fits 2 large baby seats across the back seat and the boot space is large enough to fit a double pram and extra space for shopping bags..etc

We got the 4WD 2.4L VTi-L variant, and manage around 500km to a tank (city driving). The addition of a digital radio would be a welcome addition, other than that can't really fault any of the included features.

Great Car

published

A comfortable and enjoyable driving experience. Everything about the interior is great, colour, material, quality and design. Very reliable. Reasonable running costs, approx. 11L/100k local and approx. 9L/100K long distance driving. You wouldn't regret the purchase. Boot space is very generous and lots of extra features that make it a great car.

Comfy for long road trip

published

Took a road trip with family Melbourne to Sydney.(2wd)
Positives- overall good experience. Comfy and this SUV has the most spacious legroom compared to others. Had plenty of storage space in the boot. Comfortable enough for long drive as we started at 4:40 in the morning and reached the destination at 5:30pm. That is a total of 890kms with adequate breaks.
Negatives- dashboard is plasticky. Average mileage was 7.8litres/100kms.

Love my Honda CRV. A great and reliable car.

published

I have bought a second hand Honda CRV. I do love the car. It was recommended as a reliable and long lived car. It is all of this and more. Only issue is finding a reliable and trustworthy dealer service centre. I am based in the western suburbs, I have not been able to find one yet. Only negative is leg room in front seats is somewhat limited for long legged people, loads of space in the back seat and back area. Highly recommend anybody thinking of buying one.

CR-V

Please help! I have owned 2 Honda CRVs. One was 2004 I have the 2014. Both have the shudder that Honda have claimed they know about. Does this mean they are doing something about it. Was so disappointed when the shudder started on this one... couldn’t believe that it would happen again. I just think it’s not fair that they know about this problem and are still selling them.
