What’s Included in Your 2005 Honda CR-V Warranty?
Every new Honda vehicle, including the 2005 CR-V, comes with a factory warranty, also known as a manufacturer’s warranty. This guide can help you determine if your CR-V is still under warranty and whether your warranty covers components like the battery, paint, and tires. Warranty durations are listed in time or mileage, whichever comes first. For example, a warranty that provides three years or 36,000 miles of coverage will expire after three years or after you hit 36,000 miles if this comes first.

Factory Warranty
2005 Honda CR-V New Vehicle Limited Warranty
The 2005 Honda CR-V came with a three-year, 36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty starting on the original date of delivery or leasing. As of 2022, this warranty has expired.
Under this warranty, Honda would repair or replace parts that were defective due to normal use at no cost to the CR-V owner. Exclusions included everyday wear and tear, cleaning and polishing, and most window glass damage.
2005 Honda CR-V Powertrain Warranty
Honda did not offer a standalone powertrain warranty in 2005. Instead, the Basic Warranty also covered the powertrain for three years or 36,000 miles. This covered repair or replacement of the engine, transmission, transaxle, front-wheel-drive system, and rear-wheel-drive system. As of 2022, this warranty has expired.
