Are you experiencing the Gas mixing into the Oil issue that I see on the Web for models with the 1.5 T engine?

      @@RideRedFred Thanks much for the reply. Super impressed by that Max tow capacity. Helps when friends need to move. I've driven both Toyota Corrolla and the Honda vehicles, there gas mileage really helps if a driver know their vehicle well. The Hondas have slightly less trips to the gas pumps. True there. But I've been looking at these two models and like them both. Looked at Dodges for a complete different experiences but their MPG just drops to much for wide cities or long commutes. Thanks very much.

    Just a few issues, the ACC, LKA and Braking tend to give false errors, all lights go on saying error messages, turns off every Honda Assist function. Solution is to turn off the car and restart, happened about 3 times, in 6 months, typically in odd terrain like going up a mountain or solid line issues seem to trigger this. Also usb cable error when using Android Auto, fix is to hold down the volume knob for 10 seconds to reboot head unit, works after that.

      If your TALKING ABOUT THE HONDA CRV...I agree. There are some electrical gremlins notably the android phone hook up..lag in doing. There are also pre warning indications in my crv(i have the 2019 ex awd). Start-up is good, drive is good, left out for a couple of days, it starts up fine. It is just the electronics, the cvt transmission works great,performance is adequate for a 1.5 liter 4.

    We've had our 2017 EX for just over 2 years now with nary a problem. Coming from a Mercedes ML350, I will say that the noise from the engine and the road is much more noticeable in the cabin and it's not the fastest vehicle on the road. Those shortcomings are very minor and very much forgivable. After all, it's not a high priced luxury vehicle. It does what it's supposed to do and does it quite well. I recommend it to anyone looking for a reasonably priced, good looking and highly reliable SUV. We're planning to keep ours for many more years.

    That was funny 😄, “fun to look down at little people” 😂😂😂 I consider myself little and that’s why I wanted a SUV.

    the crazy thing of the CRV, the seats are more confortable that the seats of the 2018 honda Pilot.

    I'm in the market now for a new suv and would love the Honda but here in the UK they don't have diesel this year only have 1.5 petrol or hybrid therefore I'm probably going for the Volvo xc60 instead....

      this is a super late comment, but im considering this car for a first car and i’m wondering if it’s really jumpy on the gas? like you barely press the gas and it like jerks forward you know?

    When I was a Kid and placed in that rear-facing child seat, I'd cry and scream aloud or vomit all over the place until the parent place me in the front seat with a perfect view. I'm glad that 30 years ago my parents or car manufacturers back then allowed children to enjoy every trip.
