FUEL IS LEAKING DOWN INTO THE OIL PAN RAISING THE OIL LEVELS ON THE DIP STICK AS MILEAGE INCREASES, WHICH WILL RESULT IN PREMATURE POTENTIAL ENGINE FAILURE. THIS IS ALSO GOING TO HURT THE RESALE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. FOR EXAMPLE, 2K MILES AFTER LAST OIL CHANGE, OIL LEVELS HAVE INCREASED TO A QUARTER INCH ABOVE RECOMMENDED "FULL LEVEL" DISPLAYED ON THE DIPSTICK.

BY THE TIME I GOT HOME ABOUT 7 MILES AWAY, ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME UP AND CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND GO MORE THAN 5 MP/H. VERY FORTUNATELY THIS HAPPEN NEAR MY HOME WHERE TRAFFIC IS LIGHT. WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF IT HAD OCCURRED ON HIGHWAY

ENGINE OIL HAS A FLASHPOINT OF 215 DEGREES AND 8.5% FUEL TO OIL RATIO AS MEASURED BY AN INDEPENDENT LABORATORY, BLACKSTONE LABORATORIES. TWO TESTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED AND SHOW DANGEROUSLY LOW FLASHPOINT LEVELS AND OUT OF SPEC VISCOSITY. THE FLASHPOINT IS WITHIN THE OPERATING RANGE OF THE ENGINE. I AM AFRAID OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN. DEALERSHIP WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY CAN ONLY CHANGE THE OIL AT THE PRESCRIBED TIME INDICATED BY THE CAR. FLASH POINT IS EXTREMELY SERIOUS.

GASOLINE CONTAMINATING MY OIL. HONDA DEALER DOCUMENTED GAS SMELL IN OIL PRIOR TO OIL CHANGE ON MY RECEIPT.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 5, 2019
SINCE THE PURCHASE OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V, THERE HAS BEEN GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE OIL LEVEL INDICATOR OR DIP-STICK SHOWS THE OIL FAR ABOVE THE FULL MARK AND THERE IS AN OBVIOUS STRONG ODER OF GASOLINE. WHEN FIRST STARTING THE CAR, GASOLINE ODORS ARE VERY STRONG IN THE EXHAUST AND SOMETIMES WITHIN THE CAR INTERIOR. GASOLINE IS CONSIDERED A SOLVENT AND IT WILL REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE IF IT IS ALWAYS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY AND AN ENGINE FIRE. I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THREE TIMES ABOUT THE PROBLEM. AT MY LAST VISIT, HONDA FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM A PROVIDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE PROBLEM REMAINS UNCHANGED. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED WITH MY NEW CAR AND WANT SOME HELP GETTING IT FIXED OR HELP WITH RETURNING THE CAR BACK TO HONDA AND REIMBURSED FOR THE COST. THE PROBLEM OCCURS ALL THE TIME, IN COLD AND WARM WEATHER.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 5, 2019
I USE THE VEHICLE FOR SHORT TRIPS. NOTICES GAS MILEAGE DRASTICALLY REDUCED TO 20 MPG. THIS STARTTED HAPENING SINCE DE 2018. POSSIBLY DUE TO VERY COLD WEAHTER. MOST OF CASES CAR IS USED TO DROP MY KID TO A SCHOOL THAT IS AROUND 2 TO 3 MILES. MILEASE SHOWS AS 20 MILES PER GALLON. TOUCH SCREEN DASHBOARD SOMETIMES GOES BLANK AND NON RESPONSIVE.

MY 2017 CRV HAS BEEN SMELLING OF GASOLINE. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL DIPSTICK, THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THIS ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTERWARD, I RECEIVED A RECALL/"UPDATE" NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE REPAIRS WERE MADE (SOFTWARE UPDATE, REPLACED AC UNIT, OIL CHANGE). ONE MONTH HAS PASSED, AND AGAIN, THE OIL LEVELS ARE HIGH AND THE CABIN SMELLS OF GASOLINE. THE OIL LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK IS, AGAIN, OVER THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND AMERICAN HONDA MOTORS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM AMERICA HONDA MOTORS. I AM TAKING PICTURES OF THE OIL LEVELS ON THE DIPSTICK, DOCUMENTING ALL CONTACTS MADE WITH BOTH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AMERICA HONDA MOTORS, AND RETAINING ALL PAPERWORK REGARDING REPAIRS TO MY CAR CONCERNING THIS ISSUE.

GASOLINE SMELL. OIL LEVEL INCREASING ON DIP STICK WITHOUT ADDING OIL, STATIONARY
Electrical system, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 1, 2019
ONE DAY AS I WAS DRIVING, ALL PROBLEM LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD BEGAN TO TURN ON, CHIME, AND AND GIVING MESSAGES SUCH AS "TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING POBLEM", BRAKE SYSTEM, BREAK HOLD SYSTEM , POWER STEERING, ETC..." AND MY FEATURES SUCH AS CRUISE CONTROL AND BREAK HOLD BECAME DISABLED. WE HAD THE SPARK PLUGS CHANGED AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. WE DID AN OIL CHANGE AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS OVER 5 QUARTS OF OIL COLLECTED WHEN ONLY 3.5 HAD BEEN PURED IN, ALSO THE OIL WAS SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE. WE STARTED RESEARCHING AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR/MODEL. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED LOWER COMPRESSION ON CYLINDER #4 AND KEPT GETTING A CYLINDER #4 ERROR.

JANUARY 20 2019 CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP JANUARY 21. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY, A/C UNIT, DID A PROGRAM UPDATE, CHANGED THE OIL AND DRAIN PLUG. TOLD US IT WAS FIXED. HOWEVER, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY GAVE ME PROBLEMS --MORE THAN BEFORE. I WAS ACTUALLY TRAPPED IN MY CAR AND COULDN'T OPEN THE DOORS 3 TIMES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THE SAFETY SYSTEM CONTINUOUSLY ALERTS BLINDSPOT ACTIVITY, THE MESSAGE "SOME DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEMS CANNOT OPERATE" , THERES A MESSAGE THAT SAYS "COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM DISABLED" THAT APPEARS, THE HAZARD LIGHTS GO ON INTERMITTENTLY AT WILL. TODAY, WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A TIRE PROBLEM AND MENTIONED ALL THESE OTHER MESSAGE FAULTS, THE DEALER CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS TOO HIGH (THE "FIX" WAS DONE JUST 10 DAYS AGO) AND THE DEALER TOLD US, "YES, BUT THERE'S NOTHING MORE WE CAN DO, CALL HONDA." SO, I HAVE A $37,000 PIECE OF JUNK I CAN'T TRUST TO TAKE ACROSS TOWN. PS WE WERE COERCED INTO PURCHASING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY -- WHAT GOOD IS A WARRANTY IF THE DEALER ADMITS HE CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM?

NOTICE VERY TOXIC GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE CABIN WHEN DRIVING CAR DURING COLDER WEATHER. ALSO, NOTICE GASOLINE SMELL IN GARAGE AFTER CAR IS PARKED. HAVE BEEN MONITORING THE OIL LEVEL FOR THE PAST TWO MONTHS. THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1" ABOVE THE HIGH LEVEL MARK IN DECEMBER 2018 AND TOOK CAR TO HONDA DEALER . THEY REPLACED THE OIL AND MADE A SOFTWARE UPDATE PER A HONDA BULLETIN. THEY NOTIFIED ME IN WRITING THAT THE PROBLEM IS UNDER REVIEW AND HONDA TECHLINE AND ENGINEERS ARE AWARE OF ISSUE BUT NO SERVICE BULLETINS,UPDATES OR REPAIRS ARE AVAILABLE AS OF THIS TIME( DEC. 14,2018) IT IS NOW JAN 28, 2019 AND THE TOXIC GAS SMELL IS MUCH MORE SEVERE. USA HONDA WAS CONTACTED TODAY AND CASE REGISTERED FOR MY VEHICLE. HONDA USA TOLD ME TO AGAIN CONTACT THE HONDA DEALER REGARDING THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND I'M WAITING TO HEAR BACK TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. HONDA AND NHTSA MAY NOT CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT IT CERTAINLY COULD BECOME A HEALTH ISSUE WHICH IS WHY I AM NOTIFYING NHTSA.

SOMETHING IS CAUSING THE OIL LEVEL TO INCREASE ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE OIL DIPSTICK.
Engine, Jan 27, 2019
VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE ON OIL DIPSTICK WHEN CHECKING LEVEL OF OIL. OIL IS OVERFILLED ACCORDING TO DIPSTICK WHERE IT IS WELL ABOVE THE FILL MARKING EVEN THOUGHT DEALER FILLED OIL TO SPECIFICATION PREVIOUSLY. OBVIOUSLY GASOLINE IS DILUTING OIL. VERY CONCERNED THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE LONG TERM. DEALER DENIES THERE IS AN ISSUE AND IS UNWILLING TO REPAIR NOTWITHSTANDING THE CAR HAS A TSB IN SEVERAL US STATES AND ALL OF CANADA.

I OWN A HONDA CR-V /EX 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE. AUG 14 2018 NOTICED OIL LEVEL ON DIP STICK WAS ABOVE HIGHEST LEVEL INDICATOR AND OIL SMELLED OF GAS. CALLED INDEPENDENCE HONDA IN BLOOMSBURG PA AND BROUGHT VEHICLE ON AUG 21,1018 FOR APPOINTMENT TO CHECK THIS CONDITION. THEY CHANGED OIL AND TOLD ME THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IS WORKING ON A FIX. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK IN 3000 MILES FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE. THE SAME CONDITION WAS FOUND ON OCT 22, 2018 WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK AFTER 3000 MILES. I WAS TOLD HONDA WOULD HAVE A FIX SOON. DECEMBER I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA WITH PRODUCT UPDATE 2017-2018 CR-V . I CALLED INDEPENDENCE HONDA TO SCHEDULE THE UPDATE ON DEC. 26, 2018 , WHICH WAS PERFORMED. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS THE FIX FOR THIS GAS IN OIL PROBLEM. ON JAN, 23, 2019 I CHECKED THE OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS 3/8" HIGHER THAN THE HIGHEST LEVEL INDICATOR ON THE DIP STICK AND THE OIL SMELLED OF GAS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO INDEPENDENCE THAT DAY FOR THEIR INSPECTION OF THE PROBLEM. AFTER THEIR INSPECTION THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A NORMAL CONDITION FOR THIS ENGINE. THIS WAS THE SAME PROBLEM THEY HAVE BEEN TELLING ME FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS THAT HONDA KNOWS THE PROBLEM AND THEY WILL HAVE A FIX FOR IT. THE FIX HAS NOT WORKED ON MY VEHICLE. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND INSTALL NEW COMPONENTS TO PREVENT THIS CONDITION AND ALSO EXTEND ENGINE WARRANTIES. I CONSIDER GAS IN THE OIL A SAFETY ISSUE. IF VEHICLE STALLS OR HAS EXCELERATION ISSUES IN TRAFFIC IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY.

HONDA RECALL SB 18-114 2017CR-V IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.. BEFORE THE FIX MY CR-V HEATED UP ,& HAD HEAT WITH 2MILES.. NOW THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOES NOT MOVE FOR 10 MINUTES.. & THERE IS NO HEAT.. THE CR-V WAS FINE BEFORE THIS FIX.. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM RE-CHECK THIS RECALL.. THEY SAY THAT THIS IS NORMAL NOW.. THE RECALL WAS INTENDED TO MAKE THE CR-V HEAT UP QUICKER , NOT SLOWER.. I'M JUST LETTING YOUR KNOW THIS, AND I WILL ALSO LET NHTSA KNOW. AS THIS MAY NOW BE A SAFETY HAZZARD. AS THERE MAY NOT BE ENOUGH HEAT TO DEFROST THE WINDOWS. PER THE CRVOC.COM : WHAT YOU CAN DO ' GO ON RECORD AND REPORT THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALERSHIP, TO CORPORATE HONDA, AND TO NHTSA.GOV
Other or unspecified, Engine, Jan 21, 2019
THE HEAT IN THE CAR DOSE NOT WORK WHEN IT IS COLD OUT. AUTO START DOES NOTHING TO WARM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE DRIVING CONTINUOUSLY TO HAVE THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE MOVE. ONCE THE GAUGE IS 1/2 WAY UP AND I TURN ON THE HEAT, THE GAUGE DROPS ALL THE WAY DOWN. NO WARM AIR COMES OUT, ALSO EFFECTING THE DEFROSTER. IF I HAVE ICE OR FOG ON MY WINDOWS THE DEFROSTER CAN'T KEEP UP SEVERELY IMPAIRING MY VISION, NOT TO MENTION THAT ALL PASSENGERS IN THE CAR ARE FREEZING THE ENTIRE TIME. THIS MORNING THE TEMPERATURE WAS 9 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT WITH A REAL FEEL OF -10 AND DURING MY 30 MINUTE DRIVE TO WORK VIA A HIGHWAY, ALL 4 DOOR WINDOWS WERE FOGGED OVER AND ICE WAS FORMING ON THEM AND THE REAR AND FRONT WINDSHIELD HAVE FOG AND ICE ON ABOUT 50% OF THEM. IF NOT FOR THE SEAT WARMER AND THE BLANKET I WRAPPED MYSELF IN FOR MY CUMMUTE I WOULD HAVE BEEN FROZEN. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME WINTER HAS HAPPENED NOR THE FIRST CAR THAT HONDA HAS CREATED. NO REASON FOR THE HEAT NOT TO WORK.

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHILE GETTING AN OIL CHANGE ON MY 2017 HONDA CRV, THE MAINTENANCE TECH TOLD ME THAT MY OIL SMELLED VERY MUCH LIKE GASOLINE. GASOLINE MUST BE LEAKING INTO OIL SOMEWHERE IN ENGINE. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE ISSUE.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 14, 2019
CAR OCCASIONALLY SMELLS LIKE FUEL ON THE INSIDE. THIS HAPPENS AT TIMES DAYS AFTER THE LAST TIME THE GAS TANK WAS FILLED. APPEARS TO BE A LEAK SOMEWHERE. CAN SOMETIMES OCCUR WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY OR IDLING AT STANDSTILL.
