2020 Honda CR-V
This year drew 344 complaints against a median of 479 across the Honda CR-V's other years, 0.7Ă— that median. No single fault was reported unusually often, and it did not reach the 2.5× threshold this site flags at. It has 7 recalls, listed below.
Generation 4 of the Honda CR-V, which began in 2017 and ran to 2022. Everything below compares this year against the others in that generation, not against a different car wearing the same name.
NHTSA opened a defect investigation into this model year.

How this was worked out
Every year of the Honda CR-V 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.
