2022 Honda CR-V owner review

Have you experienced any reliability issues with your vehicle since you purchased it?

No, my Honda CR-V has been extremely reliable and dependable in everyday use. Starts when I want it to start and always gets me from A to B!

Have you had to make any warranty claims?

No.

Has your vehicle been serviced at least once since you took ownership?

Yes. Car gets serviced every 12 months, and servicing is inexpensive at about $125 per visit. Always a nice experience at my local dealership.

Overall, are you satisfied with your ownership experience so far?

Yes, I’ve been very happy with the CR-V performance, comfort and overall value for money.

Have driven all types of car models over 50+ years and have thoroughly enjoyed my three Hondas over this time (2005 CR-V, 2016 HR-V and my current 2022 CR-V).

Tom’s experience with the 2022 Honda CR-V

I use my car for regular drives to the stunning Victorian South Eastern golf courses and on longer road trips for holidays.

The all-wheel-drive system gives me plenty of confidence in mixed weather, and the spacious cabin means plenty of room for golf bags, luggage, and my wife and large dog without feeling cramped.

I really appreciate how comfortable the seats are on long drives, as well as the smooth ride quality that makes extended trips substantially more enjoyable.

I think the fuel consumption has been impressively economical for an SUV of this size, which is handy in the current economy and price of petrol!

Servicing has been easy and affordable, with routine maintenance that is cheap and adds to the low overall cost of ownership.

I haven’t experienced any reliability issues or needed to make warranty claims, which is not surprising considering the badge and the heritage of the brand.

Overall, I’m very satisfied with my ownership experience and would purchase the updated model if I were to buy anytime soon, noting the impressive recent tech upgrades in the 2026 model.
