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?

OIL LEVEL IS GOING UP. WHEN YOU CHECK THE DIP STICK, IT SMELLS LIKE GAS AMD IT'S OVER THE MAXIMUM LEVEL. FOR THE HAS PEDAL, WHEN YOU PRESS IT IT'S SQUEAKING.
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Electronic stability control (ESC), Jan 30, 2019
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.

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.

I WAS GOING TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPOT AT A STORE AND TUBE PARKING GEAR WOULD NOT MOVE INTO PARK. I WAS PUSHING THE BUTTON IN TO MOVE FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND IT WOULD NOT MOVE. THEN THE BUTTON JUST POPPED OUT. I WAS STUCK AS I SCRAMBLED TO FIND THE BROKEN BUTTON. LUCKILY WHEN I FOUND IT I COULD PUT IT IN TO MOVE IT TO PARK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS BROKE. MY CAR IS A YEAR OLD AND WHEN I LOOKED ONLINE TONS OF PEOPLE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM. ISSUE IS IN THEIR CASES THEIR BUTTON COMPLETELY BROKE AND THEY COULD NOT MOVE THE GEAR SHIFTIER. THEY HAD TO USE PLIERS. IT IS A CHEAP PLASTIC BUTTON HONDA IS USING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED .NEXT TIME I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY. HONDA DID REPLACE THE BUTTON AND I HAVE THE DOCUMENTS FROM THIS.

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.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Jan 26, 2019
DURING NORMAL SHIFTING OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LEVER, THE PUSH BUTTON RELEASE ON THE SHIFTING KNOB BROKE IN TWO. THE UNIT WAS UNDER SLIGHT SPRING TENSION AND POPPED OUT AFTER SPLITTING IN TWO. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN DRIVE AND I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. UPON A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH AND AFTER DISCUSSIONS WITH A FACTOR MAINTENANCE REPRESENTATIVE, IT APPEARS THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM.

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.

WHEN PULLING INTO A DRIVEWAY AT A FRIENDS HOUSE, I COULD NOT SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK. I FINALLY GOT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND WORRYING THAT I MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND HAD INTENTIONS OF PARKING IT IN THE STREET. WHEN I GOT IT INTO REVERSE, THE SHIFT BUTTON BROKE OFF AND SPRING FELL ON THE GROUND. ENDED UP GETTING IT TO THE HONDA DEALER ON 01/07/2019 WHO APPARENTLY HAS SEEN A LOT OF THESE. CAR HAD AROUND 13,500 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT.

GAS IS MIXING IN THE OIL OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE DOES NOT WARM UP SUFFICIENTLY IN COLD WEATHER, RUNS RICH, AND LEAVES UN-COMBUSTED GAS IN THE OIL. BEGAN LOSING POWER.
Engine, Jan 19, 2019
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.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN 2-LANE ROAD WITH CARS PARKED PARALLEL THE CMBS (COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM) ACTIVATED AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND ABRUPTLY STOPPED MY VEHICLE CAUSING THE SEAT BELT TO LOCK. REPORTED INCIDENT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY UPDATED SOFTWARE BUT WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE FAULT. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER THE CMBS ACTIVATED AGAIN THIS TIME AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND ONLY MOMENTARILY. NO VEHICLES WERE IN FRONT OF ME IN EITHER INSTANCE AND THANKFULLY NONE WERE BEHIND ME. THIS DANGEROUS UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

STOPPING THE CAR AND SHUTTING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING ALL IS RESTORED TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPEN 4 TIMES. THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THIS. I AM TO TAKE A MOVIE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. I WON'T BE GOING THAT FAR UNTIL AUGUST RETURNING IN SEPTEMBER. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THIS TRIP ONLY.
