2017 Honda CR-V

noise

Most recent issue; a bad rattle from something in the front end.

the engine noise is a little louder than I think it can be and I'm getting used to the power being a little less than what we had.

Only negative is the Bridgestone tires, noisy & excessive wear in 29,000 miles.

My biggest problem with this car is road noise.

As with a lot of Hondas there is some road noise,

Surprising features I can't live without now such as brake hold, dual memory driver's seat, Apple Car Play/Android Auto, LED headlights, hands free liftgate that is height adjustable, adaptive cruise control, active noise cancellation, active shutter grill, awd, dual climate control, 3 level heated seats, 5 star accident tests.

So, the things that make this vehicle stand-out are:
- impressive gas mileage
- very roomy interior and cargo space
- features for the price (heated seats, remote starter, Apple&#47;Android)
- All the modern safery features included (back-up camera, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise, collision alert, etc)
- Quality interior materials (I have cloth seats) 

There are only a couple of things that dont get an A grade:
- seats are not comfortable over long periods of time
- a bit noisy on acceleration (not sure if its the engine or CVT or both)

Overall though, this vehicle is tough to beat.

I tell them I have been hearing lifter noises and a strange whining from the transmission.

failure

Contacted Honda due to having knowledge that the Honda Pilots had been recalled for this same issue.

So tired of the dash lights telling me “whatever system” Failure  that this time I am not even going to bother taking it to get fixed.

The car was just recalled because of problems with fuel leaking into the oil!

So, there are major health issues---hydrocarbons in the passenger compartment and a major risk that the engine will fail prematurely due to gas being mixed with oil.

At 70mph the car suddenly slowed, lost power, the check engine light came on, and multiple electrical systems reported malfunctions in the dash display.

shifter

button that controls movement of the shifter knob broke into several parts and fell from the shifter knob causing an issue with properly shifting vehicle into gears.

but turn off that and shift to Sports mode is totally different.

The gear shift is a little uncomfortable for my hand.

tank

The economy of this vehicle is a nice bonus -- my insurance dropped $90/year (due to the safety features) and a tank of gasoline is running around $30 (got to love the switch from premium fuel to regular).

Negatives: gas tank refill alert sounds after 10 gallons, not a good range.

The only thing that we would like to change is the gas tank size is only 14 gallons, which limits the range to less than 400 miles.

lights

At 60,000 miles all of the lights came on and I was told that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced.

newest problem 10&#47;1&#47;21 my emission system light is on.

Inaccurate warning lights, sensors drained the battery 3 times.

Example: The headlights were lowered, now it’s hard to read road signs, the lights are not bright enough.

We had had trouble with the warning lights on mirrors coming on for no reason earlier in the year,  Long story short Went to the dealer in Pensacola 3 times before they said it was "fixed"  Stopped in the Smoky Mtns .

In November, while driving the car, most of the warning lights on the dashboard lit up.

feature

This car is worth every penny and its a basic car with basic features.

There are multiple built in safety features.

Its roomy without being cavernous, comfortable, well designed ergonomically, loads of convenience features, and it rides good.

But I still like the styling and amenities of an SUV.

It has every amenity in comfort and performance that I can imagine—turbo engine, heated orthopedæcally correct seats, ergonomic displays, visibility, responsiveness, tracking, safety mechanisms, large clean cargo space, resale value, durability, extremely little maintenance needs, low mileage—and other features lacking on any of the other comparable cars I test drove (a little

Driver assistance features work well and make the CRV easy to drive on the Highway.

It has many features including USB, touch screen and Bluetooth.

elegant

Love the roominess inside, the elegant interior and the purported very good gas mileage.

An optimum balance of looks, features , & performance; it is elegant & excellent! Vow!

comfortable

This White Honda CRV is comfortable, quiet and reliable.

Pros: turbo, fun to drive, great on gas, comfortable and drives like new.

It’s pretty comfortable and I do love it.

Very comfortable and fun to drive and got 32 Mpg.

The comfort, classiness, and safety is the best!

Extremely comfortable ride--go for the EX-L if you can!

This car was an update for me because it has the safety and creature comforts.

safety

I've had issues with batteries, a&#47;c control center, and now the entire safety suite is going haywire.

MPG of 31-33, has the safety suite, rides well and can carry 4-5 adults comfortably.

Plenty of safety features we haven't had with older models.

but with the new safety features (blind spot monitoring, etc.)

room

Affordable price, upscale interior, very roomy 2nd-row, immense cargo space, quick and quiet power, handles nicely, 35-40 mpg.

I live my new CRV Lx because it has a lot of room in it and cargo space in the back.

Seats fold down and provide plenty of room to carry cargo and my dog.

We are tall and it has leg and elbow room for everyone.

I AM ENJOYING IT..IT HAS LOTS OF SPACE..DRIVES GREAT..I HAD BOUGHT ONE BECAUSE MY SISTER LOVES HERS

Modern, handles well, not too big for street parking in the city, nice cargo space.

REAR hatch shallows a mountain bike with room to spare!

I love the spacious room without being large vehicle.

2018 Subaru Outback

speed

As to the interior, the finishes are cheap and plastic-heavy, resulting in constant rattles and vibrations even when cruising at highway speed on the interstate.

The transmission went out at full speed on the interstate, bringing me to a grinding halt.

Slight, and forgivable cons: at low speeds, the whine of the CVT is annoying (undetectable at high speeds); driver-reachable storage is a bit meager (for an otherwise ideally road-trip capable car), exacerbated a bit by the necessity to keep the dashboard clear due to avoid glare to Eyesight cameras; the GPS screen and voice instructions are excellent, and the little additional screen in front of the driver is great,

And the adaptive cruise control is a blast, it lowers the speed until it brakes on a light with a car in front of you - if there is no car, it keeps going.

AWD system does have some jerky shifting at low speeds.

Adaptive Cruise Control eliminates the frustration I once experienced when the vehicles ahead didn't drive at a consistent speed, or a passing car pulled in front a little too close for comfort.

There is little road noise, even when traveling at freeway speeds.

windshield

The only complaint that I have is that I have is that the car at 24000 is on its 4th windshield with a significantly high tendency to stress cracking windshields.

My biggest concern is the lack of any quality with the windshield.

2 leaking gaskets,makes wierd shake occasionally tranny,sputters in cold weather bad sensor,windshield was making strange crackling noise cracked a month later.

It is so low on the windshield, I actually have to bend down a little to look behind the mirror.

I was disappointed that it does not have automatic windshield wipers--this is old technology.

There is this black line in the middle of the windshield  the headlights are lighting only the lower part of the road leaving the upper part of the windshield much darker then the lower.

battery

Since new it was a little lemon, in less than a year the Battery went kaput, the computer system was so annoying and unreliable, the Subaru Dealer in Olympia, WA and Subaru HQ in New Jersey ignored all the car discrepancies.

In less than 6000 miles it had 4 new batteries before they finally fixed the charging issue that kept killing them.

panel

I'm constantly tightening screws and bolts on the interior panels and hunting down rattles and squeaks.

Am disappointed with few problems: The front seating is not comfortable and not supportive AT ALL, especial in hard turns the seats will not hold you in place, the seat bed is to short and does not support long legs if you are over 5 feet tall, Also I prefer to site in lower position and this seat does not have the option, the fit and finish on the door panels are weak and flimsy.

I really like how the bottom of the bumpers and door panels are black - less of those little nicks and road dirt to show up.

The cupping of the treads led to thumping and road noise so loud I replaced them with less than three years' of highway use.

The vehicle had a lot of road noise and vibrations, front end issues, Starlink infotainment connection issues.

I can live with the vibrations, noise and poor steering.

(we heard some strange noise one night in the garage coming from the rear of the vehicle and googled it immediately - apparently it's normal and a good thing?)

Electrical problems (Envoy & Highlander), uncomfortable to climb in & out of (Accord), Excessive interior noise (Edge); So I bought the much acclaimed Outback.

When the pathetic dealership finally solved these issues, I found that the vehicle squeaked and rattled like an old Yugo.

road noise, awful, you can hear the ping inside the tires on the concrete cracks not to mention the roar.

Has all the necessary electronic features.

I think it’s a good reliable car to last me a while.He came with a lot more options than I probably would’ve ordered which was great thank you again

She provided several options and ultimately helped me find the perfect car for me which was a 2018 subaru outback.

We love how it drives, its safety features and its color.

Love the smooth ride, the awesome safety features (saved me from an accident recently), the AWD in snowy weather (and how quickly the heater works!).

We love the styling and features of this car. r

It’s roomy and has alot of nice features.

Eyesight safety package sensational; prevents accidents.

We love the Eyesight features, which are truly impressive to see in action.

It meets all my requirements for comfort, safety and performance.It looks very elegant and the colors are great too.The features are advanced and help a lot.

It handles well on snow and ice and is comfortable enough,

Excellent gas mileage very easy in handling performance most comfortable in all weather conditions heated seats very nice

Seats are very comfy front and back, heated.

Beautiful looking and love the seat comfort.

Comfortable and good on the road in winter weather.

Has great leg room (6'01" 230#'s), great in all weather conditions, an all around comfortable drive.

Very comfortable, great gas mileage and plenty of room for camping and going to the beach .

It is smooth and comfortable on the highway and trust-inspiring off-road.

I think it's very important to look at safety.

What I look for most in a car is safety over anything, and I feel incredibly safe and in control when I drive my Outback, even in the base model.

Like the safety features of lane crossing.

THIS BABY DOES EVERYTHING GOOD AND LOOKS GREAT
EYESIGHT AND ALL OF THE FANTASTIC SAFETY FEATURES WILL SPOIL YOU.

The safety features are great and I enjoy driving again!

but for safety it will end up killing me.

Technology and safety features are incredible, especially the adaptive cruise control which works amazingly.

ride

So I don't need to tell you about the great gas mileage or steady ride and low maintenance costs - easy oil changes, thank you for the filter on top!

My friends who have ridden in the passenger say they feel like they are in an airplane it's such a smooth ride, no matter what the terrain.

Smooth ride, excellent visibility, roomy and comfortable for driver and passenger and with ample cargo space.

drove it 2400 miles from San Jose and it was a fun ride!

Great ride,comfort,low tire noise.plenty room for front and back passengers.

Reliable, sturdy, comfort and ride is nice.

Outback is a very comfortable car that provides a great ride.

Great ride, great gas mileage, just a great wagon.

2018 Honda CR-V

This car’s design in terrible for road noise.

My only concern is the engine size which is too small and very noisy

Radio navigation issues, battery dies, loud noises while driving, phone issues, no one can hear me.

The moon roof has developed an annoying and fairly loud rattle.

When I back up break makes a loud noise, and my dealer mechanic said it normal.

Engine makes some noise when accellerating and engine is cold this disappears when warmed up.

THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE HAD IS WITH THE NOISY HANKOOK TIRES AND I REPLACED THEM WITH A NEW SET OF MICHLEN DESTINY TIRES.

My one real quibble, the thing that bugs me the most, the engine noise.

but does not heat up the car and takes long time to defrost windshield.

What happens is you don't see the anything in front and the wiper doesn't help much in taking out puddles of water thudding into to your windshield straight.

When you manually start it the car, the front defrost (set at the highest temperature and power) is inefficient and takes longer than it should to clear the windshield.

It's ok. Auto wipers do not work very well.

very frustrating trying to drive this crossover - intermittent wipers have little to no adjustment, back defroster not work, NO ARMREST, VERY bad blindspot at front drivers side of windshield, slow on pickup from a stop, no support from dealership after numerous inquiries and emails.

Dislikes :   when starting using remote start, cabin does not warm up or defrost windshield well.

Dash goes crazy in and out (twice and have video of it ) , brakes applying at high rates of speed with no traffic in front , objects or anything that dealer keeps talking B.S .about rear wiper was going off on occasion while driving forward

The car battery completely failed with no warning whatsoever.

Also, needs a warning light that battery is low ; we were 3 hours away, and various systems were not working well; hard start,

Battery had to be replaced after 21 months of use.

Next, 1 week later the battery goes dead Saturday afternoon.

but if you do any traveling and have to leave your car at an airport parking lot while on vacation, or for work, don’t count on the battery working as the electronics place a parasitic drain on the battery, when not driven daily.

In the first year we experienced:  excessive seat wear and tear, battery replacement, issues with sensors, handling and braking systems inoperative during bad winter weather (no ABS, auto braking, lane avoidance, etc).

The car was sold with substandard quality tires on it and they are failing before I had the vehicle 2 yrs.

Honda didn’t put out any information or recalls in the southern states.

I feel they definitely should replace the two panels since obviously the parts are cheap and they fail to warn you at the time you purchase the vehicle, that it can potentially melt some of the parts if you park next to another car or building where the reflection of the sun can bounce off and damage the car. Seriously?

The display system has a software issue that causes the system to fail periodically.

brake

It was back in the shop the first week because the collision avoidance system kept slamming on the brakes on the highway and nearly causing accidents.

It applied breaks unnecessarily several times when person in front was making a right hand turn even as i was applying breaks and was in no danger of hitting car.

This car not only has auto emergency braking, blind spot warning, automatic high beams, fog lights, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, rear radar for approaching vehicles, it will actually operate the gas and brake pedals in stop and go traffic, up to 25 MPH.

The engine seems to surge at slow speed so have to keep my foot on the brake when puttin it in the garage.

Everything is so cool, lane assist, collision avoidance (the car stopped with out me pressing the brake, cruise control (I drove the car in cruise control weaved in and out of traffic on ramps to different highways and didn't touch the break).

finally moved the parking brake to the dash board-more legroom.

Plus all great features GPS, Tilt Wheel, all of Honda’s Safety Features, leather seats, power driver &#38; passenger seats.

I was shocked at how well the safety features worked and how minimal my injuries were despite the accident.

I love the look of the vehicle and all of the options that the EX package offers.

The creature features are something to get used to

I really like the new safety features, including the side view mirror blind spot monitor.

Very safe and easy to drive with all the new safety features that are standard on a Honda.

Great features and I paid 26000 instead of 34000 for a Toyota.

The safety features and the comfortable ride.

I am comfortable driving with my grandchildren and confident in the safety features.

The interior of this Honda CRV is nice, comfortable and elegant.

We have only owned the Honda CRV a few weeks and love the way it handles looks and comfort  the accessories are very user friendly the car is very enjoyable

I looked at reliability, safety, mpg, comfort and read countless reviews.

2018 Toyota Camry

So, one day months after buying the Camry I pulled out of my lot at the house, and was a hot day - I head some noise which I thought was an issue with Gas&#47;acceleration on a very hot day, so I drove ok to my daughter's home across town into her driveway.

There is a noise in the front end that I've had the dealership look into several times to repair,

Main complaints are issues with wind noise on doors and panoramic roof.

but wears down quickly (expect 20K on tread before road noise becomes unbearable) and absolutely horrible  traction in snow.

2) The motor rattles like it needs a valve adjustment when idling, esp. cold.

Also, this is my first 4-cylinder engine, which I find to be somewhat noisy,

The chrome beauty rings on the speedometer and tach buzz at time, grab an move them  little and the buzz stops, a tiny bit of dense rubber wedged under the ring would likely stop it permanently,..on of these days, I'll do that.

Due to that, the car makes interior noise while stock g that is louder than I hoped.

At 57k miles this garage queen experienced multiple system failures: power steering, turn signals, wipers/washers, and constant failure mode warnings: abs, anti-skid etc.

Currently getting "parking break malfunction" alert EVERY TIME I DRIVE ANYWHERE, which also means brake hold (which I don't really use) and cruise control are down.

Finally, constant warnings: "Secondary breaking&#47;collision&#47;LDA malfunction (check engine)" warning lights go on for a few days and then go off on their own.

I wont go into too much detail about the infotainment system, which is the other glaring failure in this car, at least in its current iteration.
