As a Master Auto Technician with over 44 years in the business, I have to say that although I don't own a CR-V, our immediate family does own 6 Honda Fits. In my career, I've found that Hondas since the early 2000s have really improved considerably. I remember the "old days" with the 3-barrel carburetors and miles of vacuum hoses under the hood. Gone are those days since fuel injection became standard fare for Honda. They're very reliable vehicles and I love the design & engineering of them which tend to make maintenance & serviceability easier. Granted my first Fit was a 2007 (gen 1) and we ended up with another (2008). I later learned that after a mere 2 years, Honda redesigned the Fit in 2009 (gen 2) which not only changed the design of the body/chassis but the engine as well such that replacing the thermostat was much easier (moved to the front of the vehicle) and replacing the radiator or any of the electric cooling fans did not require removing the front bumper. Other things like replacing the A/C evaporator core is a mere couple of hours at most since the entire dash assembly doesn't require removal unlike most other vehicles which incur 6 to 8 hours of labor alone (like Toyota from the early 2000's). It's things like this that show me that Honda is a forward thinking company not hell-bent on making money only, but delivering their customers a product that is dependable and relatively trouble-free. I've worked on all makes of vehicles (except exotics like Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc.) and prior to retiring in 2017, I don't recall ever seeing a Fit in our national chain repair shop for anything other than tires, batteries, oil changes and alignments. I'm a diagnostician working with computer systems, electronics and electrical on vehicles and never had a Fit to work on. For that matter, I can probably count on one hand the number of times I had a 2000 or later Honda that needed my expertise to fix it (except those that had driveability issues due to owner neglect of maintenance like having very badly worn spark plugs that caused ignition coils to fail, etc.
