Honda CRV quality?

I have a '98 CR-V and never had any major problems. Did have a issue
with the windshield when it was new. And there were two annoying
recalls. But no problems with engine or transmission. Still going
strong with 120k miles.

 

I have a 2004 CRV-EX with 90K miles. That's right- 45K a year. Sad but
true. No problems to speak of thus far. I just replaced a burned out
tail light. I replaced the original tires at about 45K. I'm in
Connecticut and we get some pretty good snows around 5 times a year, so
I put Hydroedge (Michelin) on and I love em. Most of my mileage is
highway. I had major services at the dealer at 30K, 60K and 90K, but
I'm not sure this is money well spent. The car has had no problems, but
I'm not sure if thats because of the car, the type of driving or the
maintenance.

I listen to Car Talk on NPR every week and everyone seems to be
complaining baout their cars with far less milage and tons of prolems.
Love that CRV!

 

i saw a G1 odyssey the other day that looked like it had been lowered a
tad, and/or had smaller diameter wheels/tires. looked really nice- more
like a wagon than a van.

 

The very first Odyssey was really small and had swing out doors. They used
them as taxi's a bit in NY. Rattled like hell leaving the airport going
into Manhatten.

 

just bought a CR-V in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico,
the dealer shifted seat 3 inches back for my long legs, when we were
supposed to pick up the car the red light for failure of side air back
wouldn´t turn off.
This was A WEEK AGO (!), the car still is with the dealer, they obviously
are unable to fix the problem.

I urgently need e-mails of President of Mexican operation (
..................) of Chief Operating Officer for Regional Operations
(Latin America) Mr. Tetsuo Iwamura (according to last annual report of
HONDA) or other Customer Service institution of Honda, either in the US,
hoping they will somehow lead me to their counterparts in Mexico or at
the
head office in Tokyo, Japan.

Appreciate any help I can get

PS the car if fully paid

You might want to visit your car, and look for the phone numbers to call in
the manual. In the US you would ask for help from the district office from
their 800 number.
