The 2017 CR-V lasts around 200,000 miles, due to major engine problems shortening its lifespan. At $23,557 – 30,269, it’s not worth the money with all these issues.
The Good
The cabin is very spacious, ride is comfortable and there are advanced safety features available.
The Bad
The engines are relatively weak, there are expensive mechanical problems and the navigation system is difficult to use.
2017 Honda CR-V: Key Points
Reliability ratings are average for 2017, but there are issues with the turbo engine. Models from 2014–2015 have more problems, but there are improvements in 2019.
Two 4-cylinder engine options, one is turbocharged for efficiency and the other is not.
Fuel economy is great at up to 30 MPG combined.
Safety ratings are excellent, getting a perfect 5-star rating in government crash tests and a Top Safety Pick+ Award.
The 2017 CR-V is a bad used SUV when equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged engine. We have received a lot of negative owner reviews about emissions system problems, electronic issues, and engine failures.

In my 40s and finally have a reliable car.
I love my 2017 Honda CR-V. The reliability is really what I like most about it. We drove gm cars for years, then jeeps but I truly feel this car is really reliable. I have had only routine maintenance done on it. My car doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it does have an option for hands free phone calls/Wi-Fi.
Julie A
It is amazing! It is top rated for safety and over all performance.
I love that it is a SUV so it puts me higher up. I love that it is a pretty blue. I love that I have plenty of room and that it has lots of cool tech features
Travis W
Distance driving perspective.
Rides well, but the full reliance on satellite radio or personal audio makes music difficult in remote areas. The passenger seat lacks depth of adjustability, and the driver seat can give me a back ache. The lane assist takes a bit to get used to and is awkward when passing other vehicles.

The AC, seats, and sunroof are splendid to enjoy for a relaxing afternoon
The car is a joy to be in. It's smooth, the chairs are comfy and give lots of space and comfort. The sunroof opens up gracefully to cool down on a hot day, or the AC that's built in. Nothing's more thrilling than taking this car for a ride to relax and soothe your temper. I totally recommend this car for any of you who just like to have a cool evening
Sue N
Comfortable and reliable.
Great car. Heated seats. Leather interior. Drives smooth. CD player and radio. The back seats fold down so you can fill it with stuff. Great car camping.
Preet K
The Honda CR-V has many feature which are easy to use.
The Honda CR-V has allowed me to driver at a higher pace with an elevated position. It has a? Media screen? Which is easy to use and allows to play music by connecting with Bluetooth. Overall it is a great vehicle and I highly recommend it purchasing it.
Katie h
It has great features and is safe.
I love my car because it is the perfect size for me. I love the color and all of the updated features. My only complaint is that was very expensive.
Myra G
My car experience and problem so far.
My vehicles is a good running vehicle. However I have a problem with the knob and also have problem with some cracks in the front window which I believe was damage by stone in the road. And also hail damage in the other part of the window. Another thing was the baby car seat doesn't go in the middle.

CR-V Honda needs to give money back.
I bought it in Dec 2018. It has been in the shop 4 times. First the next day after I bought it. The second a week later for four days. The third in Jan for two weeks. It has been in the shop a fourth time for over a month. I want my money back. Too many known problems with CR-V. The 2019 loaner stalled out in idle which is an existing problem and the lane warning system misfired in a very distracting way.
Problems need to be address immediately
Battery, Electrical, gas/oil
2017 CRV AWD touring. Problems with battery even after getting new battery. Runs down after a day of being parked. I have jumped it to drive many times. Alternator is fine because it starts up quickly after being jumped and doesn't shut off when driving. It was towed to Honda dealership today and I was told it needed a new alternator even though I told him how it has been running. I informed them about the Electrical problems. Object Alert system turns on with no objects on highway....just to name one of the many alerts turning on. Steering problem when driving. Oil cap smells like gas fuel. Yes there has been many complaints about these problems for a while. Please notify customers and correct as a recall before someone gets hurt.
George J
Terrible Battery and electronics
Battery dies frequently after not driving for 1-2 days! When battery dies, it locks up the car and the brakes, and messes up security alerts. I regret having bought this car!

Buyer Beware: Flawed Vehicle
In 2017, I traded in my 2009 CRV for a newly updated 2017 CRV touring AWD model. My first CRV had proven to be a very reliable SUV and I felt confident at the time that the same would be true of my new purchase. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. I have made more trips to the dealership in the 2 years that I have owned my new CRV than I did in the 8 years of ownership of my prior vehicle. What a disappointment! I first started noticing problems with the safety features on this vehicle. They would malfunction when I needed them the most (during rain and snow storms). I also had a continual problem with my high beams coming on and blinding oncoming drivers. My battery died after several months of owning the car. Something I have never experienced with a new vehicle and a common problem experienced by many owners of this vehicle. This left me stranded in the morning with no mode of transportation to get to work. I also had a serious issue with the shifter. When attempting to shift into park in my garage, the button you push in that allows you to move the shifter flew out of its location. This left me with no way to shift my vehicle into park. I had to hold my foot on the brake while I frantically tried to locate the mechanism on the floor in the dark. Fortunately, I was able to finally locate it and get it temporarily back into place, so that I could shift. Most recently, I had my engine light come on with an Emission malfunction error on the screen. After two trips to the dealership, they had supposedly “fixed this problem.” There is a big problem with the engine in the 2017 and 2018 CRV that for some reason is not being publicized. Although many people have been experiencing safety concerns and engine problems, Consumer Reports and JD Rider continue to list the CRV as one of their top picks. This is even after thousands of people finding gas in their oil. This is resulting in problems with engines stalling and who knows what kind of damage being done to the engines in these vehicles. Although this is a known problem with the new CRV, to date, Honda has had no recalls on these vehicles in the US, but has in China. In fact, they temporarily stopped manufacturing them in China. In early July, I received a letter from Honda saying that they are extending the manufacturer’s warrantee on these vehicles due to this problem. They also claim that they are going to do a software update on these cars which “should fix this engine problem”. However, there are people who have had this update and continue to still experience this same problem. My advice to you if you are considering purchasing this SUV is that you think twice about it and buy a more reliable vehicle. I just traded my CRV in for a loss, so that I no longer have to worry about engine problems and the other safety hazards I have experienced with this vehicle. If you own a 2017 or 2018 CRV, you may seriously want to consider unloading it while you can still get a decent trade in value for it. It certainly is not the safe and reliable vehicle it is being marketed as.
Jessica T
2017 Honda CR-V- hate this car.
This vehicle does not have the amenities of other vehicles of this age. The battery also went dead very quickly and the performance is not that of the usual Honda. I am disappointed in the quality of this vehicle and will not purchase another in the future.
Lynn M.
Stay Away From the Honda CRV EXL! Nothing but Problems!
I have had my CRV EXL for 7 months! It has been one headache after another! I only had it a couple of moths when the battery died for no reason! After sitting at the dealership for over 3 hours, they replaced it. Then not a couple of days later, every warning system light came on when I started it, for no reason! It's been to the dealership 6 times for this problem! They last time, they kept it for 4 days and told me they fixed it for good this time!! NOPE!! Got in it today, not 2 weeks later and surprise...The lights are on again!!!! I'm not the only one with these problems!! Getting a lawyer involved, sick to death of this lemon!! It has a defect in it and nothing is being done about it!

Electrical issues
I bought my CRV November of 2017. I have had issues with the electrical since day 1. Brought back in with no help from the dealership. Replaced the battery at my cost and still all the lights are on my dash more then off. Thus to say that all my perks such as cruise control and lane assist will not work when the dash is lit up. Can’t wait till my lease is up to return and go to another dealership.
Douglas Hawkinson
Service
NO, service I have experienced at dealers sucks. I have had my crv for 3years 3 weeks, 35800 miles. Have problems with emissions system
Top Critics Reviews
Consumer Reports finds the CR-V to be roomy and comfortable with decent owner satisfaction scores.
Edmunds rates the CR-V 4.0/5 with a lot of focus on storage and comfort, but they don’t like the infotainment system.
Kelley Blue Book gives the CR-V a 4.9/5 and loves the safety features, but doesn’t find the SUV fun to drive.
What Problems Does the 2017 Honda CR-V Have?
Problems with the CR-V include engine issues, batteries dying quickly, and broken gear shift knobs. We recommend upgrading to a 2019–2022 model since there are fewer engine issues but unfortunately prices are about $4,000 more.
Engine oil mixing with fuel is a common problem with turbocharged engines in the first 15,000 miles. The high oil level can cause damage to your engine. There is a service campaign from Honda to help solve the problem.
Dying batteries are another issue with failures happening in under 15,000 miles. There’s a service bulletin issued by Honda to help reduce parasitic electrical draw which usually solves the issue.
Broken shift knobs are another common complaint at around 20,000 miles. The spring and assembly is a known failure point, and Honda again issued a service bulletin to replace parts in affected vehicles.
A properly maintained 2017 CR-V should last around 200,000 miles, but in some cases turbo engine issues total them out sooner, making it shorter than a typical SUV. Maintenance costs are affordable at $309 per year, according to Repair Pal.
As a CR-V reaches 100,000 miles owners should prepare to replace the evaporative canister for $400, heater control valve costing $315, and liftgate struts costing $75.
Alex T
It is reliable. It does pretty well in inclement weather and has not broken down on me. It could get better gas mileage though.
Amy M
Yes, my car is very reliable. I have not had any problems with it since I purchased it. I will probably buy another one.
Denise K
In general, it is a very reliable vehicle. There was one recall for the airbag and a recall for the gear shift button. I did not have any problems with these items before the recall. I have not had to have any work done on the vehicle other than routine maintenance.
Albert H
Yes it is reliable. I have not had any issues to date other than a couple recalls for airbag issues. My only complaint is the trunk hatch. I like the older model that opened up like a door as opposed to the newer one that opens like a hatch. When it rains, the trunk door drips on your head.
ericka m
CR-V is very reliable and doesn't have a problem at all! It's very lux and the price it's very valuable that anybody must had this vehicle.
Nneka E
I have not experienced many problems with my 2017 Honda cr v ex. The only problem was the brakes having a recall.
Chase H
It is very reliable, I have not had any major problems with it. The only minor issue I have had is the button on the gear shifter falling off.
Ellen M
I have no problems beyond normal wear and tear of driving 54,000 miles. Have not had to replace anything that would not be expected for the miles driven.
How Much is the 2017 Honda CR-V Worth?
Blue book prices range from $23,557 – 30,269, making the CR-V more costly than rivals including the Rogue or Escape. When new, the price range was $24,045 to $33,795. Depreciation is good in current conditions, only losing about 3% of its current value per year.
Technology is very good in the CR-V since the SUV was just updated for the 2017 model year.
Base technology includes a 5-inch infotainment screen, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, and a 4-speaker stereo system.
Optional upgrades include a 7-inch touchscreen navigation system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as an 8-speaker stereo system.
Standard safety features on the LX include airbags, and stability control.
Optional safety features on the EX and higher include blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning and intervention, forward collision warning with braking, and adaptive cruise control.
What Engine Options are Available?
Performance is dull in the CR-V compared to some more athletic rivals. The turbocharged engine takes 7.6 seconds to go from 0-60 miles per hour.
The base engine found on the LX is a weak 2.4L 4-cylinder with 184 horsepower.
On the EX and higher models there is a problematic 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo engine making 190 horsepower
What Color Options are Available?
How Big is the CR-V?
The CR-V is a compact SUV, similar in size to rivals including the Equinox and Compass. Passenger space is fantastic, offering more passenger room than the competition, and fitting adults easily into the back seats.
Cargo space is bigger than other SUVs with 39.2 cubic feet of room behind the seats and 75.8 with the seats folded flat.
How Does the 2017 Honda CR-V Compare to Other SUVs?
A very close competitor in the same price range is the Toyota RAV4. The RAV4 has better long-term reliability ratings, but the CR-V has more room. Overall, for the 2017 model year, the RAV4 is a better choice with fewer engine problems.
Another competitor is the more affordable Mazda CX-5. The CX-5 has fewer complaints from owners, but there’s better safety technology found in the CR-V. The competition is usually very close, but we recommend the CX-5 logging fewer complaints.

Final Verdict: Is the 2017 Honda CR-V a Good SUV?
Overall, the 2017 CR-V turbo is an SUV to avoid, but the non-turbo LX model is okay. We recommend shoppers looking for a CR-V upgrade to a 2019 or newer model with significantly fewer problems.
Alex T
Yes. It is easy to drive and handles well in rain and snow. It is safe and I love the heated seats.
Amy M
Yes, very dependable and handles well on the road. I also like the safety features that come with the vehicle.
Denise K
Yes, this is a good vehicle. It is easy to drive. Handles the road well and all kinds of weather. It can get up and go in up to 8 in of snow. I like the roomy interior.
Albert H
Yes! It is the 2nd one I have owned. Reliable, comfortable, roomy, easy to drive. It performs well in all kinds of weather. I like that it is an SUV and sits higher off the road without feeling like I am driving a bus.

Yes it was a good vehicle, and have a good performance too and great price that anyone can buy it and low gas to.
Nneka E
The 2017 Honda cr v ex is a good vehicle. I have been driving the car for more than 2 years now. It has good mileage as well.
Chase H
It is great. It gets great gas mileage and is really fun to drive. Very comfortable and it looks great.
Ellen M
I absolutely love my CR-V It has been very reliable and fits my needs. It has enough cargo space to fit my dog crate and my personal things.
Same issue as reported by others with the 2017 CRV Touring. The warning lights would flash and all come on at once. This happened just as warranty ended. Dealer just wanted to try replace sensors but I had no confidence they could fix it. Just traded it, disappointed as I did like it and usually keep cars at least 10 years

A real electrical lemon
$1800 ABS replacement at 75K miles. 6 weeks to get the part, plus a flash drive. Collision sensor randomly comes on. Parasitic sensors drain battery. And no recall!

Reasons why I love my CR-V.
I love my Honda CR-V. The gas mileage I am getting is @33 mpg. I have 35000 and just replaced the tires. I do a lot of short trips. It is a very comfortable vehicle. I am 5 4” and the size is perfect. I feel very safe and protected. The control knobs on the steering wheel are very simple to use. It took a little bit to get used to using the cruise control.

A good reliable model at mid range around $30k price.
CR-V comes with a good performance, but with limited interior space, door height is not properly designed, materials used in vehicle are not highest quality, electronic equipment or device interface have room to improve. Price is in acceptable range comparing to RV-4 from Toyota..

Amazing car with equally amazing features.
This is my third Honda CR-V that I have leased. Each time it gets better and better with the standard features. I love apple carplay in my car, being able to connect my phone for navigation is amazing! The heated seats come in handy on long drives. The trunk space is the perfect size all while not compromising the space in the back seat.

Pros & cons of Honda CR-V.
The touch screen controlling radio, heat, ac, and mapping will sometimes freeze or flicker. At times I will have to shut the car off and then turn it back on to get it to work. The ride is very smooth, excellent shock absorption. Excellent mileage as well even when driving around town.

Comfortable and affordable.
Within the first month I had the battery die on me for no reason (just faulty). Other than that, there have been no major problems. It is a very smooth ride, and has all the current features (lane departure, adaptive cruise, back up cam, etc. ) The only real complaint I would give, is it does not handle as well in the snow as other SUV’s I have had in the past.

Reliability and Drivability.

It is good in long ride. It gives a good comfort. It is rich in many features.
My vehicle is a dear one to me. It is a Honda CR-V model. Though I have faced a few problems, it is very favorite to me. I have faced some braking problems, some tire problems, some engine problems and some other problems. But it has given me a very good performance. I have travelled a long way through it. It is still the same new car to me. I rely on it. It is the only car I have. It has given good performance whenever I needed. It is very comfortable in riding. I go on long ride with it. It is rich in many features. Such as power steering, alloy wheels, fog lights-front, passenger airbag etc.

Honda CR-V- a comfortable ride.
My CR-V is amazing. It runs well, is reliable, and comfortable. My favorite extra feature is the apple play. It allows me to control my cell phone through the screen in the car and will display the map when I am using the GPS. It gets good miles to the gallon and really runs smoothly.

Love my Honda but not ideal for multiple children in car seats and strollers.
I love my CR-V for its reliability. I have the oil changed regularly and have had to purchase new tires, but I have not had to have any repairs. The outside looks great but I do not like the fabric seats. Although they are easy to clean, they mark and stain easily. I have the tan interior, so with toddlers, it looks terrible even though I clean the interior at least once a month. The only other complaint is the size of the cargo area. I would think it would be a bit bigger in and SUV. Put one stroller in the back, and there is very little room for other things, such as groceries.
Jacob K

The dual heating and a/c capability.
It is a safe reliable and dependable car and love the nice easy to use interactive menu settings. Also like that it is good on gas and it is easily maintained. Also love the camera used for reversing. And like the Bluetooth capabilities to sync my music so I do not have to listen to commercials.

10/10 would buy again, love my CR-V!
Car rides really well, the eco mode is great for summer driving and the all wheel drive is perfect for snowy winters like in NY. The gas mileage is great, and the features inside the car make it feel like a much higher end car than it actually is. Plus it holds its value!

Helpful driving car: the Honda CR-V.
I love all the details Honda puts in to this car. You can tell they use good quality materials, I test drove a few other cars and the CR-V was definitely top notch compared. The most helpful feature is the comprehensive cruise control. It is very helpful on long trips and makes driving long distances much easier. It slows you down when you get too close to a car.
Sarah S

The CR-V is good for city living!
My Honda CR-V is perfect for me. I live in the city where parking sometimes can be tight but I am still able to easily slip into spots because of the turn radius and design of the car. It also has a good amount of back storage without feeling too big.
Stephen B

Overall a pleasant vehicle.
Visibility is at times poor. Especially out the back window and sides. Even with the camera I find it quite challenging to navigate the car. Parallel parking is also a challenge (I used to be a master at it, now, not so much). Otherwise, I like the power, mileage seems to be pretty good. Lots of room in the trunk.

Seats are comfortable in the front with heating option 3 setting on temp and back seats provide a lot of legroom as well and fold down flat for transporting things. Car handles great in the snow and is a safe car for people with children.

CR-V or civic - cannot go wrong with a Honda!
Honda always makes reliable vehicles; I previously had a Honda civic that I drove for 10 years. When it was time to upgrade, I knew I wanted another Honda, but bigger. Both vehicles have had great gas mileage!! They are also both very comfortable. I see the CR-V lasting me for a long time as well.

Honda CR-V is a great car with a good radio.
The car is very reliable, no huge problems yet. It is comfortable and the temperature adjusts quickly to warm/cool. The radio is great also, interesting how it starts at the beginning of a song as you flip to it. The color choices are great and makes for a nice-looking car. It is spacious and great for transporting most loads for everyday use.

Mechanically drives fine no issues. Minor cosmetic issues.
All around mechanically I adore my car. It hasn't given me any serious issues mechanically and i've had it since 2017 when it first came out and has been heavily driven. It feels smaller when driving it so maneuverability is easy and is comfortable to park and easy to see out and see the blind spots. I have had numerous problems with the vehicle as far as. Cosmetic wise. The right mirror top part broke off when I was driving. It literally just popped off assuming it was because it had snowed and the water went down in the crack of the top of the mirror and caused it to crack as I was driving. The gear shift button randomly popped out one day when I was shifting it into drive and had to be found and shoved back into the gear shift hole and thankfully stays in there. I have also just discovered the tube that sprays the windshield with fluid is broken and need of repair. Other than that the car has not given me any other issues.

Easy car to drive and like the warnings that come on the dash.
Easy car to drive, very reliable, only oil changes, tire rotations, or filter changed. Like all the features on the touring model especially apple play. Like the memory seats since I am a lot shorter than my husband. Pretty good gas mileage on the freeway. I have gotten up to 37 miles per gallon.

CR-V owner - wish I would have done a little more shopping before deciding on it.
Overall, the CR-V is good SUV but there a few things I am not happy with. The technology package is not great, I have had a lot of issues. Apple CarPlay does not work right about 1/2 the time. I have been told it is because I use a non-apple charger but it happens when I use and apple charger too. It is just very frustrating especially considering the price of the vehicle.

Very comfortable for the size.
The CR-V is a great car but they should get rid of the manual seats. It needs more areas to put things, little cubbies. And I wish they'd put the armrest back in the front seats. The seats are comfortable both front and back for the size car. The shade pull of the sun roof drags.

I haven't had any issues with the car and I have owned it for 2.5 years. It drives and handles excellent and the AWD makes it easy to get around town in the snow. It is very comfortable with a ton of room in the backseat for passenger leg room. I have had all 3 seats in the back filled with people and none of them complained about space. It also has a great cargo capacity.

Getting 30 plus miles per gallon.
Have had my vehicle for 3 years, this last year getting 30 miles to gallon. Leather seats are great, especially to clean. Has sunroof which love to use all the time,weather permitting. I am still learning everything that is on vehicle. Have heated seats which is great for Iowa winters.

Sleek, sporty and comfortable, 2017 Honda CR-V.
Bought it brand new, it is running excellent. I have no complaints. Love the supercharged sport mode. Really good on gas and I would say it is a very reliable vehicle. I have heated leather seats and remote start for those cold winter days. I would recommend this vehicle and it is safety rating are one of the top best.

Reliable vehicle-happy customer.
No problems in 3 years of owning. I am the second owner of the vehicle and I am so happy with my purchase. The maintenance tracker is a great reminder for me to take the car in because I always forget! This vehicle also gets good gas mileage and great space for road trips!

Honest review of my CR-V!
It is a nice size not to big not too small. It is a comfortable ride. There are a lot of safety features. There is a lot of road noise. I didn't like that I could not add on additional features. There are features that are only on the more expensive trim package.

Okay GPS, has Bluetooth, nice size.
I like the size of the car. It offers touch screen capabilities, Bluetooth and GPS info. My only reservation is the GPS search feature is not very good (I can look up common things and it does not recognize always). It has a sunroof. Seating does not get hot, I live in FL. Steering wheel, will get hot.

The camera to see behind and side objects is the most important

Sporty looking SUV with great technology for entertainment and safety.
I absolutely love this car, it drives well and is not too bulky like some other SUVs I have had. Really feels like more of a luxury car. Great technology inside, and I like its sporty look. Only issue is that I have consistently had problems with the tire pressure system.

Great gas mileage SUV with maximum comfort and space without a massive car size.
This car is amazing. Once in a while something will randomly go wrong, like Bluetooth and window function, but they can be easily fixed. The car is super comfortable, spacious and has enough room to fit a person on the floor of the backseat. Very reliable car and would suggest for anyone.

Nice and very cozy for 5 people in the car at once
There is a lot of good features including carplay and the lane signaling. We found that the leather interior was very nice and could be beneficial when the hot weather comes so that we can not burn ourselves in the hot sun. This is very important to my wife.

The Honda CR-V is an all round terrific mid size SUV.
This vehicle gets 30 mpg, it is incredibly roomy and comfortable. Since it is AWD, it is great for winter driving. The rear seats fold down completely, making it possible to pack a great deal in to this vehicle! Many cool features such as lane change alert, hands free driving, excellent back up camera and terrific sound system. Mine also has extras such as, sun/moonroof and heated leather seats.
