Great SUV!!! - 2004 Honda CR-V
By Ben987 - October 21 - 2:00 amThis is a great SUV for anyone looking for comfort, power, and quality. Gas mileage is excellent, and the CR-V is good in the snow.

Crooks - 2004 Honda CR-V
By jim - October 20 - 11:56 amLike most people with a Honda 03-05 my family has air problems. Last week the condenser exploded, and not only ruined a $300 condenser but did a few thousand dollars in damage. What kind of idiot designs something so that when it breaks it tears up the entire product? If you dont believe this try to use your defroster this winter with the ac not working. This is a known Honda problem that they refuse to fix [via several web sites]. Anyone that has paid out of pocket needs to go to Honda lawsuit and help get everyones money back and save others from this problem. Its defective equipment. They are ripping the public off .

Probably Not Again - 2004 Honda CR-V
By Scott - September 26 - 1:34 pmI bought this vehicle new in Nov. 2003. I now have 98,000 miles on the car. At 97,000 miles the entire A/C compressor, clutch and coils blew. After fighting with Honda they ended up paying $600 or the $1500 price tag to replace the A/C. The cars fit and finish are sub par for a Japanese car. Squeak and rattles abound. The exterior paint is easily scratched. Honda has known about the faulty A/C problems with the CR-V but refuses to extend the warranty on them. I owned 2 Subarus before this car and will go back to Subaru once this car dies for good. Honda gets high marks in most of these postings but most of the postings are from people who just bought their cars.

Almost 4 yrs later and going strong. - 2004 Honda CR-V
By michelleinmo - September 17 - 8:23 amHave leased this vehicle for nearly 4 yrs now and its been pretty good! No mechanical issues or anything and at 42K miles its still going strong. We are upgrading to a new 2009 Pilot and Ill miss the zippiness of my CR- V! What I wont miss is the discomfort of the drivers seat. I cant get any lumbar support and the seats just seem small. My son sits in his car seat forward facing in the back passenger side and therefore the passenger seat needs to be nearly all the way forward in the front, total pain. Love all the cargo space!

Good value--fun to drive - 2004 Honda CR-V
By Cleburne fan - September 9 - 2:00 amThe CR-V has handsome exterior styling, a capacious interior and is fun to drive. We liked the black cloth interior, which is hard to find, as well as the moonroof and in-dash cd-changer. It comforts us to know it has 4wd when we need it, antilock brakes, side air bags and great safety ratings. Being a little larger in every dimension than our Forester makes it more comfortable for this 62" driver, especially on long trips. Overall, its a great balance of size, utility, safety, economy and driveability, and its a great value.

Less than thrilled - 2004 Honda CR-V
By Artman - August 30 - 11:33 amToday is my CR-Vs 4th birthday and I have noticed fading paint, rock chips on the nose that have started to rust, and scratches all over the car. This alone will bring my resale value down at least $2000. I will take the vehicle into Honda but Im sure they will not take care of it. I would recommend not buying the midnight blue pearl color. Better yet buy a Toyota.

Loyal Honda Owner - 2004 Honda CR-V
By msln - August 27 - 8:57 amBought new in 04. At 71,000 miles, the A/C compressor blew, contaminating the whole system. Estimates cost anywhere from $1800-3000 to fix.

Shame on American Honda ! - 2004 Honda CR-V
By formerhondafan - August 9 - 6:02 amAs a huge Honda fan and owner for the last 15 years, I was thrilled when I bought my 04 CR-V. Sadly, that excitement only lasted as long as the warranty. 2000 miles past the warranty it just stopped running. Took it took the dealer and they said it was a "sensor" and it cost me $280! But as frustrating as that was, it pales to what just happened to me. Just like all the other CR-V owners out there, my AC compressor blew up, and American Honda just snubbed their nose at me like they have every other owner. Shame on you Honda! Fortunately, my dealership helped me out with the whopping $3,000 bill, but Honda is doing nothing to help its loyal fans. As a result, I am selling all of mine!
