This Honda CR-V used to be a rugged, trail riddin, camper crossover. But, all new for the third gen Honda CRV is a lower more practical city car. How dare they. In this video I break down the reliability and common issues of the Third "3rd" Gen Honda CRV from 2007-2011. This quick overview/ review of the Honda CRV should prepare you for the most common issues with these SUVs.

Original owner of a 2009 Honda CRV. The maintenance is 100% up to date. Dealer serviced only. 160k miles knock on wood I have not had any major problems. Did change out all of the struts. I loved the car. Gave it to my brother this year (2021). Go Honda.

@elle5031 2 года назад

@Maloney7 I too just purchased a 2009 Honda CRV EXL...I noticed you said you only let the Dealer service it. Would you mind expanding more on that? ...Would like to know if you feel the dealer mechanic is best. Thank you for your time...

@@elle5031 The Honda dealership in my area has very reasonable prices for maintenance for my CRV. No need for me to go to Joe mechanic around the corner. Plus my CRV has been very reliable.

Our 2007 CRV we are the second owners. . It has 269,000 miles. The only thing that need to be replaced has been the muffler and the starter. Always passes inspection. That’s a pretty good deal.

@mattm9579 Год назад

Good informative video, however, may I offer one small sugggestion ,,,,, ditch the background music. Being a video production specialist while on active duty for the Air Force, we learned real fast, that most of the audience was tuning into the music instead of the material at hand. The others said the music was to distracting . As soon as I tuned this in , the first thing that hit me was the music ,, the rest of the info got lost and or garbled with the information being presented.

I bought my '08 EX-L with 132k miles. I had issues with the VTEC control module and solenoid and it has run great ever since. I'm at 193k miles now! I had to replace the a/c compressor and the alternator, but I think those parts were past their useful life cycle. Also, the locks always break on these cars (there's an auto-lock feature that causes a lot of wear and tear, but you can easily turn the feature off as listed in the owners manual) and the cloth seats are more durable than the leather ones.

At the ned of the day I guess it comes down to my own history with Honda. 3 great motorcycles I owned and 3 great cars make my decision making a whole lot easier. I'm all in for car #4!

Have a 2010 AWD EX. It's okay. Only major thing that went was the AC and these cars are known for that. Power steering whines but it's nothing more than an annoyance. Had to replace rear struts. Other than that, just your basic maintenance- brakes, tires, fluids, etc. 212,000kms. I plan to drive this car another 10+ years and 500,000kms.

I watched a video about why my check fuel cap keeps coming on when I start my 2011 CRV and it says it may be the selenoid? Once i push the button on the cluster panel to reset it it doesn’t come back on. Its inly got 77,000 miles cuz my mom didn’t drive it a lot when she got it in 2014 or 15. So I bought a new gas cap awhile ago like a few months back and it been going on since i got it. Its made for my car so idk why else the check fuel cap light would come on the cluster panel unless it’s a bad selenoid? My husband cleared the engine light tonight so ill see if it comes on when I start it again

I recently bought an '09 CR-V with 90k on it. Front wheel drive. Replaced the rear struts, as the ride was stiff and clunky. The clunk-clunk is slightly improved, but I still feel and hear every uneven bit of road. The suspension is very stiff. I'd love to compare the car with another CR-V to see if stiffness is general in the model, but haven't found a way to do so. I like the car, but it would be nice if it handled a washboard stretch of highway with greater aplomb.

@superlegoguy24 Год назад

I've got an '08 with just over 200k. Yeah the suspension is just like that. You really feel the road. Makes loud clunking sounds when going over railroads, speed bumps, etc. mechanic says it's fine

original owner of a 2009 CRV. 160K miles. I came here looking for fan related issues since mine has had 2 issues recently. I will say that some of these are spot on. I've had the starter issues, Lots of AC issues. 3 times i've had to replace the Relay for the compressor. , both stabilizer bars, and all shocks/struts due to them leaking hydraulic fluid. Thankfully no trans, rear end, or engine issues. Also, pretty much all the leather on the inside is trash. all seats and arm rests started wearing evenly at the same time even though we had the car for 5 years before we got kids and started using the back seat.
