ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Honda Cr-V FCEV?
The 2025 Honda CR-V FCEV enters the market without direct crash-test data. No tested sibling years for this model appear in NHTSA records, leaving a gap in direct federal crash-worthiness evaluations. The vehicle carries a Moderate burden band designation, influenced by one steering-system recall and 224 unverified owner complaints. The steering recall is broad, affecting multiple Honda and Acura models; this suggests a component issue beyond this specific CR-V FCEV. Owner complaints focus on safety-critical areas: Steering, Forward Collision Avoidance, and Service Brakes are frequently cited. The Fuel and Propulsion System also ranks high in complaints, a point of interest given the FCEV powertrain's relatively new status in consumer vehicles. These allegations remain unverified by NHTSA.
