What Owners Say
"It seems a front end alignment is needed every few years. I don't consider this a Honda issue."
Anonymous, CA (2012 Honda CR-V EX-L 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Had to replace sway bar bushings due to wear."
Anonymous, ON (2012 Honda CR-V EX-L 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"1st year for electric steering which is very sensitive, steering tends to wander slightly causing regualr correction compared to our 2010 CRV with 150000 miles"
Anonymous A., TX (2012 Honda CR-V EX 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"The issue occurred once this past year. There was a noticeable squeaking/ rubbing sound. The disappointing part is I have replaced the struts multiple times since I purchased the vehicle with 117000. In a little under 40000 miles, I have replaced struts 3 times."
Anonymous, PA (2012 Honda CR-V 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Car was exhibiting signs of worn shocks, like a rougher ride. Steering wheel was also vibrating. These signs had been building for about the last 12 months. Finally took car in and had front shocks and struts replaced, steering realigned. Problem solved. I chalked it up to eventual wear and tear on a car that had about 150,000 miles."
Anonymous, TX (2012 Honda CR-V 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"The rear struts reached end of life and required replacement."
Anonymous A., TN (2012 Honda CR-V EX 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Noise in front end occurred when driving over bumps. Tie rods on both sides were worn and were replaced."

Anonymous, CA (2012 Honda CR-V EX-L 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Clunking noise could be heard when driving over bumps in road. Has issue assessed during routine oil change and it was determined noise was one outer tie rod, but other outer tie rod was leaking. Both were replaced."
Anonymous, ON (2012 Honda CR-V EX 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"wheel bearings have some noise when driving, was told by mechanic that it would be around 2000$ to replace them, he just greased them for now."
