  Good & Bad - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By shawn - June 21 - 11:01 am

  This vehicle typically gets rave reviews. I have a few gripes. The interior plastics grow old quickly. Too many rattles and road noise in the cabin. Pluses are a smooth auto transmission, convenient tumble forward rear seats and excellent side panel rubber molding to prevent door dings. My CR-V had a failed drivers seatbelt, replaced free (after waiting a month) and an airbag recall. Very poor MPG- expect 18-19 on average in combination driving. If youre used to driving a sedan this vehicle takes some getting used to. As far as reliability, it has been all Honda-no problems.

  By Jose Barrios - May 28 - 10:00 am

  My 2004 Honda CRV is by far the best buy a made so far .good in fuel,ride and handling.Interior needs improvment,like the parking brake is hard to desingage,sits are to tight and sticki.Road noise a bit to high.Tires are cheap and not much grip.Strong engine for a 4cyl,is fun to drive in manual trani.The radio needs more power and better speakers.Overall a great car for the price.

  I traded in a Tahoe for the CR-V mostly for the better mileage. Im getting 21 in town and 27-28 on the highway. I plan to upgrade the standard cloth seats to leather because thats what I miss most about the Tahoe. Im impressed with the sportiness of the CR-V, and I like the ability to customize it with OEM and non-Honda parts.

  CRV from Guatemala - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By Julio Galicia - March 30 - 9:14 pm

  Pretty Good, the only issue is that the EPA numbers do not match with the real life. Mine is doing like 20 or 21. This estimate should include results at different altitudes.

  The Chevy Vega of the New Millenium - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By Michael - March 27 - 2:00 pm

  At a little over 18,000 miles this piece of junk needed its transmission and fuel injectors replaced. Now a few days and a few hundred miles after getting it back from the dealer, it appears to need yet another transmission as well as rear brake work (it was fine when it went in). This vehicle was delivered with some type of adhesive spots all over it, presumably from the delivery plastic. We had a roof rack installed at the dealer. This rack does not appear to fit properly, so I fear it is lacking in structural integrity, so we do not use it. The vehicle rattles and shakes at every opportunity. So much for reading Consumer Reports and following their "Best Buy" recommendation.

  Nice Little SUV - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By Hal - January 16 - 5:03 pm

  First, the 2004 is a great improvement over the 2001 CRV we owned. More powerful, less buzzy engine, more comfortable seats, better brakes, seats fold easier and tumble all the way forward, better quality interior materials, easier to use tailgate. Glad Honda moved the window controls off the dash and back to the door panel armrest where they belong. Vehicle is based more on the Accord and less on the Civic in terms of styling, features, engine. Much nicer design, more elegant, less utilitarian. Great value for the $$$.

  Easy to drive and economical. No problems in two years of local driving. This is our third Honda and I would recommend it to anyone.

  Love this suv, so far! - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By ft-dalbey - November 28 - 10:00 am

  Just bought this 2004 SUV and for the most part, I love it. Its fun to drive, looks cool, handles great for an SUV, and has tons of room for passengers and dogs too! Yet, is small enough to be reasonable on gas and easy to park in small spaces.

  Best all around SUV - 2004 Honda CR-V
  By Hondaman - November 15 - 5:04 pm

  Own my CRV for 18 months now and it is all that I expected and more. Extremely user friendly interior with plenty of cargo space. Front seat should slide back an inch or two more for extra driver legroom. Rear seats are very comfortable and roomy. Road noise can be quite intrusive and the poor standard tires dont help. Very happy with the gas mileage average of 22 MPG. AWD activates smoothly on slippery road surfaces. Handling is good but a bit tippy in hard cornering. Would highly recommend this vehicle because of its excellent versatility, build quality, value and reliability.

  A reliable vehicle, but does not win any awards for its appearance. I haul my drums around in it along with people, so it is a functional vehicle. No bells and whistles, just a functional car. Dont expect it to be like a luxury SUV, because it is quite simple and plain. I would recomend it to anyone who want a functional, reliable car/SUV.
