Before you buy a 2018 CR-V

  • Open investigation

    NHTSA has one open investigation covering this year: EA24002 (engineering analysis into the forward collision avoidance since Apr 2024). An open investigation is a question NHTSA is asking, not a finding of a defect.

  • Where complaints cluster

    Complaints are spread out; the most-reported components are engine (386, of which 2 mention a crash, 1 a fire and 2 an injury), steering (333, of which 5 mention a crash and 3 an injury) and electrical system (255, of which 4 mention a crash and 2 an injury). Across all 2,161 reports, 46 describe a crash, 2 a fire and 39 at least one injury.

  • Complaints vs. other years

    Owners have filed 2,161 complaints about the 2018 CR-V, about 2.8 times the typical year for this model (775), and more than some older years that have had longer to collect reports.

  • Recent reports

    236 complaints (11% of the total) were filed in the last 12 months, so owners are still reporting problems, most often about the steering (81).

  • Changes from 2017

    EPA lists the same engines, transmissions and drive types as 2017; four recall campaigns name one of the two years and not the other (equipment and fuel system).

  • Fuel economy and running cost

    Its most efficient version (1.5-litre 4-cylinder) is rated 30 mpg combined, better than most for the 2018 SUVs we cover (median 24 mpg across 53 other EPA listings); the thirstiest version is rated 27 mpg. At 15,000 miles a year and the national average regular gasoline price of $4.28 (EIA, week of Oct 19, 2026), fuel would cost about $2,140 a year in the most efficient version and about $2,380 in the thirstiest.

What owners told NHTSA

Short excerpts from owner reports submitted to NHTSA. They are unverified and describe one vehicle each.

“My CRV has been having issues with the steering wheel "sticking" and making a clicking noise when turning. I have had it looked at multiple times and Honda dealerships claim they aren't "feeling" or "hearing" what I am.”
