Reliability verdict for the 2022 Honda CR-V
With a 92/100 score against a 73/100 segment average, the 2022 Honda CR-V rates well above average for reliability. That gap suggests a strong overall track record relative to peers, despite a meaningful volume of owner-reported problems.
Complaints are not evenly spread. They cluster most heavily around steering, with forward collision avoidance and the electrical system forming a second tier. The remaining reports fall into smaller buckets, including unknown/other and service brakes, indicating a few recurring themes rather than broad, vehicle-wide inconsistency. Recall activity is elevated rather than limited, which adds some buyer-facing exposure even with the high score. As the final year of its generation, the data still points to concentrated issue areas.
Overall risk level: low, with targeted risk concentrated in steering and driver-assist/electrical systems.
