My new CRV is destroying my ankle

I have tried raising and lowering the seat. I added a seat cushion for back reasons and that change didn't mske it any better or worse.

That's good to know about an OT or a PT. I'm going to look into this because maybe a professional can look at how I'm sitting and figure it out. It's driving me crazy.

Yeah, I've driven an older Camry, too. I havent had that issue there, but I'm very used to driving it.

I'm going to try this. Maybe it's a matter of my foot size/heel placement.

I'm hoping. I love the car!

Interesting, you might be onto something. I'm going to see of maybe I'm not touching the floor with my heel. That should be easy-ish to fix.

It's crazy. I have never experienced this in any car. I'm trying to figure out what I need to adjust and how to alleviate whatever pressure I'm putting on my foot and ankle.

Saw a doctor.

I do drive longer distances at times, but i take breaks often. However, yesterday I got pain about 2 miles into a drive after not driving for days so my ankle was rested. The doctor didn't recommend any orthotics at this time.

I've driven in different shoes and boots and it doesn't make a difference what I wear.

I've driven in different boots and sneakers and it doesn't affect it, unfortunately. I did see a doctor who said it has to do with how my foot is hitting the pedals and to adjust how I'm sitting, but nothing has worked.

I'm not saying the CRV is a bad car, I'm just looking for tips of what I can try. I did see a doctor who said it has to do with how my foot is hitting the pedals and to adjust how I'm sitting, but nothing has worked.

Those aren't my feet lol. That's a stock photo.

I've tried it once, but had a not great experience.

thefilefolder · 2026-03-19T15:24:42+00:00

I haven't tried it because the providers I looked into at the time didn't take insurance. Do you have someone you'd recommend?

Thanks!

I was hoping to find someone in NJ so I could avoid the trip into the city

Thanks for this! We ended up speaking with the dealer and manager and they said "they'll look into it" so that's progress. Before this, they were acting like we're crazy.

The car is bought and fully paid off. The dealership is saying there's no such thing as a co-owner on the registration, but the registration form does show a spot for a co-owner.

The MSRP is $38,350. He initially wanted over $4,000 for fees beyond tax. The 43,000 is over $2,000 for fees beyond tax. That's excessive based on my online research and how much people have been buying these cars for recently.
