    Awesome vehicle. Well designed and excellent engine. Not a single problem the first 1000 miles. Perfect SUV for my wife. Easy to drive and very safe.

  • they could have done a better job - 2002 Honda CR-V

    Ive only had the CR-V for about 10 days...its a 4-WD EX. The design is great and its real comfortable. The only thing that bothers me is the fact the the brakes are already making weird cracking noises when Im driving. Ive taken the car to the dealership a couple of times and they couldnt find anything wrong with it. Other than that, the drive is kind of nosy + the audio system isnt too great. I had a 2000 CIVIC b4 switching to the CR-V and now I think the CIVIC was probably a better buy.

    This is the second Honda CR-V Ive owned and I bought both of them used. My wife totaled our other one which was a 1999 model while trying to avoid hitting a deer, I wish she had just totaled the deer, it would have done less damage but, instead she veered off the road and hit a huge rock in a ditch and it cracked the transmission and obliterated the front end suspension. We have never had any problems out of either or our CR-Vs other than that. I have plenty of power for a 4 cylinder, itll do turnpike and interstate speeds all day long with no problem, and I can pull a small boat with it. The gas mileage is decent 24-26 highway and 19-21 around town.

    very reliable, well thought out, good power, disappointing mileage.

  • Job well done by Honda - 2002 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Altough I have to admit that the previous version has better exterior looks, this re-designed 2002 surpases the older one in every aspect. So roomy and commanding. Too bad it is labeled as a Females car otherwise I would have kept it for myself. My wife loves it.

  • 6000 miles with 02 CR-V LX 2WD - 2002 Honda CR-V
    By -

    This is a very good all-purpose vehicle. I have a commuter car, weekend junk hauler and a good long-distance vehicle rolled into the 02 CR-V. I am still being annoyed by the "engine light" problem when the outside temp. is below 60 degrees F. Also, Ive been getting less than advertised mileage. I use a K&N air filter and drive reasonably. My mileage is 21~23 city and 25~27 hwy. To Honda: Truth in Advertising.

  • I Loved My Little CR-V! - 2002 Honda CR-V
    By -

    I bought my 2002 CR-V EX 2WD used, in 2007 & I absolutely LOVED it. It ran beautifully, never once had to undergo repairs, got wonderful gas mileage & was just an overall reliable vehicle--the perfect first car! They are cute little SUVs, typically owned by more females. The interior features are eye-catching & unique & for a smaller SUV, they have impressive storage capacity & spacey passenger room. Mine ran beautifully up to the day I was involved in a head-on collision, and even then I found good news--its a pretty sturdy little car! I am now searching for another 02 CR-V I wont drive any other vehicle!

  • Outstanding CRV - 2002 Honda CR-V
    By -

    This vehicle is flawless so far. Rides very good, has better performance than my 2001 model. This is the third new Honda purchased from Hugh White Honda of Columbus in three years.
