DIssapointed as a Honda CRV owner. Hopefully Honda is watching this video and would either do a seatbelt recall or fix this oversight in the 2025 model.
Everyone up here commenting based on their visual interpretation and other comments. .. go to the website people. It is a Top Safety Pick. It's detailed in the explanation and rating system. Honda cr v is still top tier
Wait can somebody tell me why everybody is disappointed? It seems like the passengers faired decently well? Was it just the rear passengers that are unsafe or what's wrong with the seatbelts??
@@rer8235 It’s not whiplash, the seatbelt slipped over the pelvis into the abdomen. The Accord doesn’t have this issue but the CR-V does, Honda should be able to update this with the refresh or next year. Not sure why there is a difference there to start with.
@@noahw5887 The seat belt moved from the pelvis to the abdomen which isn’t good. If you search “CR-V crash test rating explained” you should be able to see a video by the IIHS that goes into more detail if you’re interested.
I'm very surprised and disappointed, but actually relieved - I was about to purchase this because safety for the rear seats is our top priority. It's frustrating because the CRV hybrid checked all our boxes, but I just can't stomach this; guess we'll be holding off until Honda fixes this issue.
Would vehicles fair better or worse in the overlap crash if they had a mechanism to pierce the front tires as they are pushed against the rear fender? Something simple, like a needle tipped tube or spike welded to the passenger compartment at the rear of the tire. It could be hidden within the fender, but become exposed in a collision once the fender well reaches a certain point of deformation by the compressing tire. The purpose puncturing and rapidly deflating the tire would serve could potentially reduce most of the rebound energy and allow any further transfer of energy to be absorbed by the continued deformation of the suspension allowed due to increased clearance gained by the intentional deflation of the tire. As I watch these videos it just seems like it would add some depth to the crumple zone and reduce the rebound energy. It appears to be, instances where the suspension or wheel break off and the passenger compartment isn’t compromised tend to be safer to the occupants. I assume it would also be difficult to intentionally build fail points into those components without compromising their durability for the day to day duties of these components. It just appears that the tire becomes a limiting factor before the rear of the vehicle picks up and catapults in the opposite direction rather than deflecting from the point of collision.
Most modern wheels are cast with the intention of being a "breakaway" in an accident. Great idea until it totals you're new truck because a pothole broke you're rim off
This test is 'updated' for a reason - they still do the standard moderate overlap test where the drivers' rating is the most important. This newly updated test is focused on the rear passengers as manufacturers tend to skimp.
What about the Honda Accord which is the first and only mid-size car that got a GOOD in this test and in all other tests, making it a Top Safety pick? Same GOOD results for HR-V also. But please elaborate your comment.
Honda needs to redesign the rear seatbelts with this one

They tried to make improvements, but it didn’t work very well.
As an owner of a 2024 CR-V, I am appalled. Honda should be embarrassed and offer a recall.

Need to redesign the rear seat brackets to pass, unusual for Honda.
Might need to fix this along with the Pilot and Odyssey…
Perfect timing. Was about to lease one.

the force and whiplash of the seatbelts
The main issue is the rear seatbelts, the front passenger and driver do just fine, the area where the occupants are is very safe in terms intrusion.
@@Fadic4what's exactly wrong with the rear seatbelts? Sorry for my ignorance.

Well the 2023 Crv ( same car) old test standard was an iihs Top Safety pick.
This institute changes everything each year
Do you know what the most funniest part? THE HRV PERFORMED BETTER
Can you do 2024 dodge Durango passenger side small overlap please

I drove by a Honda CRV crash yesterday, it took out the electricity on my block.
Now they also have to recall this once again because of the seats

Thats an interest idea, would love to see how that affects the ratings.

how come poor euro n cap evaluation march 2024 was 5 star ?????
Wow
Crv got Poor evaluation!!
Hondas are losing their ways with their new car safety and reliability. We want the old Honda way!
Back to the drawing board, Honda.
Would buy one today if not for this rear seat/occupant issue. Bad on Honda.
small overlap?
It did better in Small Overlap. Click the link in description to see results
Wow that seatbelt disappeared into the abdomen
Looking at full results, it's rated Good for driver, but the rear passenger evidently causes the overall Poor result. Seems odd to do it that way..

Wtf I just leased one
@@joebrannon I think you're good as long as you don't have rear passengers
Honda will not fix it. They have not acknowledged the fault. So maybe another 5 years until the next generation comes out.
honda safety has dissapointed far too much recently.
This is just one of the reasons i bought a Mazda
The CX5 got a poor as well though
wow that is just horrible unbelievable!
So basically everyone except Toyota and Honda was able to rapidly adapt to the updated moderate overlap test. Shame shame shame.
Rapidly means at least 4-6 months for any car company. The modifications aren't made overnight.
Nope. American manufacturers did even worse. Ford, GM and Chrysler have nothing but junk both internally and safety.
@@legioner9bludclat, the crv got poor twice even after redesign 💀
DEI passenger
Do better, Honda
That’s why I buy Volvos
Yeah, Volvos are so reliable, you could easily survive in a crash since they break down often.
@@legioner9 they don’t break down not bmw! Never seen a Volvo on the side of the road! But definitely way safer than this “reliable” “safe” honda
@@Quinton0520 I have seen all sorts of cars on the side of the road, never seen a Honda. To say that Volvo is reliable is crazy.
LOLL HERE COME THE ANGRY HONDA FAN BOYS
