2013 Honda CR-Z
This year drew 11 complaints, which is too few to read anything into. A share of a small number moves too much: one owner writing about the same fault twice would swing it further than a real pattern does. So nothing is claimed about this year either way. The 2 recalls below are on file regardless, and are not affected by how many people filed complaints.
NHTSA opened a defect investigation into this model year.
| Complaints filed | 11 |
|---|---|
| Median for this model | 5 |
| Involving a crash | 1 |
| Recalls | 2 |
| NHTSA crash rating | 4/5 |
| EPA combined | 34.5 mpg |
Recalls for this year
- 19V500000 AIR BAGS Fixed free of charge.
- 16V061000 AIR BAGS Fixed free of charge.
How this was worked out
Every year of the Honda CR-Z was compared against its own history rather than against other cars, which removes popularity and age from the answer — a common car draws more complaints at equal reliability, and an older one has had longer to accumulate them. A year is flagged when it drew at least 2.5× this model's median and at least 50 complaints.
This is a fault record, not a review. Nobody files a federal complaint to say the car was fine, so it shows what tends to go wrong — not whether owners liked it, and not whether it is a good car.
