At 72,000 miles my crv blew 2 head gaskets thus requiring an engine overhaul. The dealer informed me that they have been getting a few vehicles with the same problem. However, problems are not under warranty. At 144,000 miles it required a catalyctic converter because it clogged. . However, I was noticing a weird sound under the car at 130,000. And before that it did not feel as powerful when going up inclines. My mechanic said that they are getting a lot of vehicles of the same model with the catalictic converter problem and as a matter of fact he had one crv this past week in which he had to change the converter. Unfortunately, where I reside emmisions inspection is not required. Maybe, if we did, the problem with the catalyctic converter would had been noticed if it had failed the emmissions test. Please help!.
