One problem related to power train driveline has been reported for the 2008 Honda CR-V. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2008 Honda CR-V based on all problems reported for the 2008 CR-V.
After three service attempts by the Honda dealer to correct the car not tracking straight, I had a local alignment shop install rear camber adjusting kits. Car did not track straight, prior to installing the after-market kits, the car would continually drift left. The dealer now states the warranty is void because I put non-Honda parts on the car. When I called the dealer parts department, they have the same after market rear camber kit. Searching customer complaints on sites such as edmound's, a significant number of customers complain about tire wear. My tires were wearing excessively and abnormal prior to correcting alignment on all four wheels. It appears that the 2008 Honda Cr-v has a manufacturer defect and later year cars do not when a search of customer complaints is done.
