2016 Honda Accord EX 2.4L: This is my car. 220k miles, transmission oil drain/refill (3 quarts out, 3 in) Every 2nd oil change (20k miles each). Not a single issue. Running great. Quiet, smooth, highly responsive.
Honda cvt are great as long as you dont overload with towing.
On a positive note, the Honda CVT transmissions are bulletproof. There are hundreds of not thousands of 10-year-old CVT K24 Honda Accords and 1.5L non turbo CVT Honda Fits going strong at 200,000-400,000 miles with original transmissions.
And honestly the eCVT that Toyota uses, with the rear motor unit for AWD (no actual driveshaft) seems to be working great. The steady RPM on acceleration is a little weird at first, but you get used to it.
I've got a 2012 Murano with 220,000 kilometres on the clock and my CVT is still going strong but I do religiously service it.
CVT doesn’t give me reliability anxiety, it’s a fleet car sold to police. Get it serviced regularly, it’s fine. Most people blame the cvt, when it’s actually the valves need cleaned, and O2 sensors, Spark plugs, coil packs need replaced. The stock tune needs updated. Even then the Subaru tune isn’t great. My kid loves the smooth as butter cvt ride. I love it puts her to sleep.
Unfortunately the recent Honda CVTs (the cvt im my old Nissan was worse!) have tons of issues and reliability concerns.
My 2017 versa died at 54k miles / 88k km. Got 2 quotes, $6k or 8k on a car worth 10k. Canadian $ figures.
Mine went out last year at 50k (32k miles) on a 2017 SL. Super annoying and still annoyed.
Transmission problems the famous CVT transmission from Nissan. Total garbage.
