The Owners Manual says NOTHING about what needs to be done and when
with regard to scheduled maintenance/inspections. All I know is to
take it in whan the wrench shows up on the display. This makes me VERY
uncomfortable, as I'm at the mercy of the dealer.

Is there any definitive info on this, similar to my 2001 Civic EX
maintenance schedule , which is very detailed ?

When the wrench shows up it also display a number to correspond with what
type of service is needed. Check the manual to see what the numbers mean
and take it anywhere (or do it yourself) the same way you would with a
written schedule. The only difference here is service isn't done
prematurely.

I received no seperate service manual, that I'm aware of, in my '07 CR-
V dcumention packet. I did,
however, find a section in the back of the owners manual that gives
certain maintenance 'tasks' to be
performed which relate to letters (A,B) or numbers (1-6) that appear
on the digital display when due.
This made things clearer..I just have to wait until they appear, based
on mileage driven or time.

I'm finding that both Honda dealers in my area 'recommend' a 4-wheel
alignment at the 15K/1year service,
although it is not one of the maintenance items recommended by Honda.
I don't agree, my alignment is fine and no tire wear visible. One
dealer stated that they follow the 'SEVERE' driving condition schedule
because it is hot and humid here in Florida. LOL....it's both colder
AND hotter in Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia, and many other States. I think
they are boosting their service profits.....

Here's a like where you can get all the owner's manuals for previous
models. You could keep / print the schedule for one that has a 'real'
service schedule. Nothing has really changed. Your Dual Pump Fluid will
still probably be shot at 15 -20,000 miles (early).

Your alignment (check the warranty book) is free up to 12,000 miles/1 year.
That's why they are recommending it at 15,000 - so they can charge you. If
you have any alignment issues, take it in before 12k miles/ 1 year. After
that, find a good alignment shop.
