  • Great Grocery Getter! - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    We bought the CR-V EX-L to replace an older Acura. We chose a 2015 model in January 2016 which I think helped us get a 15% discount from MSRP. We chose the two wheel drive model to reduce purchase and maintenance costs. The car is overall excellent. Great features, fit and finish for the price. The noise and vibration is a bit more than our Acura - as to be expected for the brand position and pricing. The radio and phone controls are not intuitive but easily learned. MPG has been less than expected despite operating it in "green leaf" mode. All in all, we highly recommend the car!

  • Clear Why This Car Sells Like Hotcakes - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    To address the elephant in the room, my CR-V does vibrate my seat at 600 RPM when stopped in drive. However, shifting to N or turning headlights on raises RPM. Adjusting the idle speed would fix this, so I imagine Honda will have to address. Otherwise, loving this car for my extended commute. While the acceleration pattern takes adjustment, it handles well and I am getting 30 MPG (with AWD) from hwy & suburban driving. There are a few minor interior quirks but car is comfy and spacious. The CR-V is in high demand; you cant get a Touring for months and there is little negotiating room. Ended up going with an EX-L, which saved me $5,000. My EX-L took 4 weeks to arrive in my color.

  • Functional & efficient yet well appointed - 2015 Honda CR-V

    Great bang for your buck with quality appointments, function & economy. Purchasing a certified used vehicle provided the added security of recasting a significant portion of both the 100k drive train and standard 36K warranty.

  • No vibration here - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Apparently, I got one without the vibration issue. I already have 65,000 trouble-free miles on this vehicle and I have never noticed a vibration issue. It has been the second-best vehicle Ive ever owned, with the best being my 2005 CRV with 290,000 miles on it. Im sold on Honda quality. And, bonus, the 2015 was built in the U.S.

  • Very satisfied - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Last December,we decided it was time to replace our jeep liberty. The many smaller suvs would be the way to go for us. After lots of research, it seemed that all of them seemed to have their problems. Honda with the vibration, forester with the oil consumption, Escape with recalls, etc. Since we had great luck with previous Hondas. (280000 and still going with a civic hybrid) we test drove an EX-L AWD specifically looking for the vibration. Never experienced it. About one month ago we bought the one we test drove. We are extremely pleased with our purchase. No problems at all after 3000 miles. No doubt some crvs have an issue. With the number sold maybe <10%?????

  • Perfect for us. - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    After going to a few auto-shows and sitting in dozens of SUVs and compact SUVs, we decided on the Touring FWD in White Orchid Pearl with beige interior as our family hauler. Main reasons: low floor, 90degree opening rear door. The power-train is very peppy and gets up to speed surprisingly quick. I never find the need to use sport and always have ECON mode on. Avg 26mpg on a light load, 22mpg with the whole family and peripherals. Curiously, I am not experiencing any vibration issues others mention.

  • Great car for all uses. - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Ive only owned the car for 7 mos. It was stolen off of street parking. I liked the car a lot. My main dislike is the body is made of plastic with underlying cardboard in places, but thats how all cars are made today. The gas mileage did not approach the EPA ratings. It was far less by 6-8 mpg.

  • Great SUV! - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    This 2015 Touring AWD is a joy to drive. Traded a 2014 EXL to add AWD and better electronics, and it feels great. Having read of the vibration and whines bothering others, I watched for them. Once there was a audible whine and at stops an almost imperceptible wheel vibration. With radio and AC fan on neither was noticeable. If a fix comes along, good and if not, I am still enjoying a great new CRV. It does everything I need and a little more.

  • Our First Honda - So Far So Good - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    We recently replaced my wifes VW Passat 4 Motion with a 2015 Honda CRV Touring and weve driven it 3000 miles so far. We have not experienced any of the vibration other reviewers have noted. In fact Id describe driving it as "smooth and effortless". My wife sums it up by repeating frequently how easy this vehicle drives. However, I have to believe the ride would be smoother with the smaller rims of lower trim levels. We felt sort of "trapped" into going with the touring because there were features like the power lift gate and some of the automated safety features were only available on the top trim level. The 18" rims really set it apart from older CRVs though. Its a trade off.

  • Poor Gas Mileage but we still love it - 2015 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Just a quick review since weve only owned the car for about a month. Ill try and update it as time goes by. The combined average mileage is 22-23 MPG per the cars computer and twice when Ive filled up Ive double checked the calculation based on miles vs gallons and it seems spot on. We drive this car like a GRANDMA and still the MPG sucks (compared to what they claim it will get) Yes there is a vibration, a "bogging" down when you first accelerate from a stop if you dont give it a good amount of gas. Get over it or dont buy the car. My Wife doesnt even notice it and it doesnt bother me. The CRV rides smooth! Interior is very comfortable and the lack of road noise is nice!
