Does the CR-V vibration issue develop after time?

I'm thinking of purchasing a 2015 (CVT) CR-V. I test drove one a few months ago and one recently and there were no vibration issues.
Has anybody purchased one without vibration and had it develop over time? This may hold back my purchase.

    You may find some helpful info in Edmunds 2015 Honda CR-V Consumer Reviews

    This is another spot owners of affected CR-Vs are talking: Vibration issue with 2015 Honda CR-V

    I haven't seen the issue after a few thousand miles, and neither has my co-worker who has had his CR-V even longer. Beware that there are a lot of phony reviews on the Edmond's site now, with people creating multiple accounts to trash the CR-V. Same goes in various forums with users posting under multiple accounts.

    Actually we have a very actively moderated community and sockpuppetry isn't very common. If you have a question about someone's post on the forums or on the consumer car reviews, shoot a moderator an email and we'll be happy to check it out.

    Sorry for the confusion. The sock puppets aren't on this forum. They're on a different forum that gets mentioned a lot in the vibration threads.

    We actively moderate the consumer reviews too, just to be clear.

    And go Mets. :)

    Thank you all. It's so tough purchasing a new vehicle. Honda has a great reputation and we've had good luck with our 2003 Odyssey.

    Update: now 10 months old and odometer nearing 8,000 miles and all is well. No issues. None. Gas mileage ranges 33-36 mpg, great ride, quiet enough, engine and cvt provides power and smooth acceleration as needed. Our CR-V has a very good Honda build to it and is still a joy to drive every time. B)
