THIS WATER/SNOW DAMAGE WILL HAVE AGED MY OWNED VEHICLE. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IT APPEARS WITH MOST HONDAS IN LAST 7 YEARS.

I PURCHASE A 2017 HONDA CRV-EX WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE. DURING THE PAST 6 MONTHS I'VE BEEN HAVING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE ' THE OIL SMELL OF GAS, PASSENGER COMPARTMENT SMELL LIKE GAS, RISING OIL LEVELS, STALLING AND LOSS OF POWER. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA MOTOR COMPANY , LTD HAS RECALLED 350,000 HONDA CRV'S IN CHINA BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THE COMPANY IS CALLING BACK THOSE CARS TO RESOLVE A PROBLEM CAUSED BY AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT OF UN-COMBUSTED PETROL COLLECTING IN THE ENGINE'S LUBRICANT OIL PAN. HONDA DEALERSHIPS IN CANADA WITH OIL DILUTION PROBLEMS HAVE ALREADY STARTED REPAIRS OF THEIR 2017 & 2018 HONDA CR-VS AFTER IT WAS CONTACTED BY CANADIAN MOTOR VEHICLE ARBITRATION PLAN (CAMVAP). I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO BUY BACK MY VEHICLE UNLESS I RECEIVED THE SAME REPAIRS AS THE CANADIAN HONDA OWNERS, WHICH ARE THE FOLLOWING: 1.) PERFORMED N60 CAMPAIGN (OIL DILUTION) 2.) REPLACED CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT 3.) REPLACED DRAIN PLUG WASHER 4.) REPLACED OIL 5.) UPDATED PGM-FI AND TCM SOFTWARE. 6.) WARRANTY EXTENSIONS ON ALL ENGINE COMPONENTS FOR UP TO SIX YEARS FROM ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE, WITH NO MILEAGE LIMIT. GIVEN THAT THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED, HONDA HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE IN AN OPEN AND TRANSPARENT MANNER. HONDA HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THE TURBO ENGINE DEFECTS THAT CAUSE FUEL TO ENTER THE ENGINE AND DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. I SEEK A PERMANENT FIX TO THE PROBLEM, NOT JUST A FLUSHING OUT OF THE VEHICLE'S OIL RESERVOIR AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS ALREADY PERFORMED TO NO EFFECT. IF HONDA CANNOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM, I SEEK A FULL REFUND OF MY VEHICLE.

WENT TO LOCAL HONDA DEALER FOR REGULAR OIL CHANGE MAINTENANCE. AFTER COMPLETING, NOTICED CAR SEEMED TO BE STALLING AND SLOW/NON RESPONSE IN ACCELERATING. 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

MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ONCE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND ONCE JUST ON A STRAIGHT ROAD. THIS HAPPENED TWICE, AND I WENT FLYING FORWARD AND ALL MY STUFF ON THE SEAT WENT FLYING. THERE WAS NOT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THEY SAID IT MUST HAVE BEEN READING SOMETHING TO DO THIS, AND IT'S TO PROTECT A POSSIBLE PEDESTRIAN. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN . I CALLED HONDA OF JOLIET TO PUT IT IN MY RECORD. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THE VEHICLE STABILITY LIGHTS, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, AND A BRAKE LIGHTS ALL FLASH STATING THERE IS A PROBLEM. THESE LIGHTS JUST COME ON WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES . ONCE IT WAS SNOWING. THE SECOND AND THIRD TIME THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR. THE FIRST TIME I CLEARED SOME OF THE 'DRIVING AIDES' AND THE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I TOOK IT TO HONDA OF JOLIET ON 1/25 AND THEY ALIGNED THE RADAR. THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON 1/28 /19 AND THEY SAID THEY REALIGNED IT AGAIN. THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 DAYS. THE ORIGINAL REASON WAS THE SENSORS ARE DIRTY, AND IN BAD WEATHER THIS CAN HAPPEN. THEY SAID A CLUMP OF SNOW COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TOO. SO THIS CAR IS ONLY GOOD IN GOOD WEATHER? THE SERVICE PERSON SAID THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF CARS IN FOR THIS SAME REASON. ANOTHER PROBLEM WAS I CAME OUT TO FIND MY WINDOWS DOWN, MY SUNROOF OPEN AND MY BACK DOOR OPEN. CAR WAS STATIONARY. DIDN'T TAKE IT IN FOR THIS AND FORGOT TO TELL THEM WHEN I DROPPED IT OFF ON 1/28/19.

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.
Other or unspecified, Engine, Jan 9, 2019
THE VEHICLE HAS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA WITH UNSAFE LEVELS OF OIL DILUTION IN THE 1.5 CVT TURBO ENGINE. GAS IS MIXING IN WITH THE OIL, CAUSING OIL LEVELS TO RISE. THE FUMES OF GASOLINE ARE ENTERING INTO THE CABIN SPACE AND MAKING IT UNSAFE TO BREATHE. THE ENGINE IS ALSO HAVING STALLING ISSUES DUE TO GAS MIXING IN WITH THE OIL IN THE ENGINE AREA. THIS ALSO HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ABILITY TO KEEP THE CAR WARM AND PROVIDING ADEQUATE HEAT INTO THE CABIN AREA. THE COMPONENTS OF THIS ENGINE ARE UNSAFE FOR COLD WEATHER CLIMATES SUCH AS THE NORTHEAST. THE CAR CAN NOT WARM UP THE ENGINE SUFFICIENTLY AT IDLE AND THEREFORE WILL NOT BLOW ANY HOT AIR INTO THE CABIN AREA. THE MANUFACTURER STATES THE CAR NEEDS TO BE OPERATING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES TO GAIN SUFFICIENT ENGINE WARMTH. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, AS MANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE FAMILIES AND CHILDREN, AND WE MAKE SHORT TRIPS BACK AND FORTH. FOR THE CAR TO BE COLD AND BLOW COLD AIR AND NOT BE ABLE TO WARM UP IS A FAILURE BY THE MANUFACTURER TO PROVIDE A SAFE VEHICLE. HONDA CASE NUMBER 06673515

NOT ABLE TO MOVE VEHICLE NOR PUT IN PARK. AFTER INSPECTING TEMPORARILY PUT PIECE IN WHICH ENABLED ME TO GET HOME. WHILE DRIVING FELT VERY UNSAFE NOT KNOWING IF IT WOULD REMAIN IN GEAR. ONCE HOME UNABLE TO PUT IN PARK. LUCKILY VEHICLE HAS BUTTON BRAKE SYSTEM WHICH ENABLED ME TO PUT BRAKES ON AND GET HUSBAND'S HELP. HE TEMPORARILY ENABLED VEHICLE INTO PARK AFTER WHICH VEHICLE ALTHOUGH IN PARK NEVER FULLY TURNED OFF. DUE TO CHRISTMAS COULD NOT GET TO DEALER TIL TODAY. BATTERY DEAD. CHARGED, TOOK TO DEALER REPLACED WITHOUT COMMENT. AFTER GOOGLING, THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. I BELIEVE THIS COULD CAUSE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. I PERSONALLY WAS VERY DISTRESSED. THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE. I DEFINITELY BELIEVE IT SHOULD.

THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON MECHANISM BROKE AS I WAS PARKING WHEN MY CAR ONLY HAD 5,312 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SAFETY HAZARD AS THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON MECHANISM BROKE WITHOUT WARNING AND CAN MAKE IT SO ONE IS UNABLE TO SHIFT.
