I believe this is a coil spring issue. It seems like the spring doesn't sit correctly on the strut.

#74 of 101 2006 Honda CR-V pulls to the right by jeannie_h

Aug 21, 2009 (8:37 am)

I'm considering buying a 2006 Honda CR-V with 48,940. When I test drove the car it pulled to the right. I thought it was something that was an easy fix, but when I Googled the problem it seems a lot of CR-V's pull to the right.
 
Anyone here have that issue?
Thank you.

Yes !!!! Honda has manufacture problems.
I bouthg a CRV 2009 - O miles.
2 week later the car started pulling to the rigth.
We went to the dealer 4 times.
They fix their computer - Nothing
They make aligment - Nothing
They changed tires - Nothing
They test the air - Nothing
They offered to tes a new crv and the same problem Happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally, after 6 hours of discution, they recognized the problem with CRV and we have to contact HONDA to solve the problem. The dealer can not do anything for us.
We decide to put a sign in our car
DO NOT BUY HONDA 2009 CRV
(MANUF. PROBLEMS)
OWNER OF THIS CAR.
We hope it will help futures buyers.
Sorry about my english. and thanks.

I thought that Honda had some similar problems with older models about pulling to one side. They found the springs were not seated properly on the struts.

About ready to pull the trigger on a new 2010 but test drove a 09 model first. No pull to the right or left noticed. Test drove another a few days later just to make sure it had enough power for my needs and again this second CR-V 09 model did not pull or I would have noticed. Drove it only 9 miles or so and part of that was on the highway.
 
Have read a few Honda CR-V forums and this issue reported is not wide spread as the 2002 thru 2006 air compressor problems is. Me thinks its here and there on some of the vehicls....

#78 of 101 NO issue here by motoguy128

I test drove 4 different CR-V's before buying a new '09. 3 different model years and a wide range of miles on the clock. Never noticed any pull to the right.
 
Actually when cruising, I find it requires less steering input that our '08 Altima. The only time it veers right or left is due to the crown of the road.
 
I'm guessing it's an assembly problem, defective part or a combination of the two that causes this problem on a very small number of models.

I had to go through the Better Business Bureau with the issue of the Honday CRV pulling to the right. I went through arbiration and I won my case. Honda had to pay me back for 8 car notes that I paid and they had to buy my car back. I went through hell with that issue. I now have a Mercedes GLK350!

#80 of 101 cabin noise at highway speed by otola

Sep 21, 2009 (10:23 am)

We are thinking about buying another CR-V - we have an old 2000 model and want something newer and more up to date.
 
My question is: How bad is the noise inside the cabin at highway speeds? As far as I am concerned this is a weak spot in my current CR-V; the cabin is just plain noisy when you get to highway speeds. How is the sound proofing in the newest generation?
 
Thx

Newest 2010 has not been released yet and no data on noise. Give it a few more weeks and maybe some information will come out. Consumer Guide is set to test the 2010 soon.
