Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 14, 2020
WHILE DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED IN A PARKING LOT VEHICLE MISFIRED AND ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS BECAME NONFUNCTIONAL. LOST SOME CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. PARKED CAR IMMEDIATELY AND CAR STARTED TO REV ITSELF WHILE IN PARK WITHOUT PUSHING THE PEDAL. ALL SYSTEM ALERT INDICATORS CAME ON INDICATING ISSUES WITH MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL & ENGINE COMPONENTS. TURNED CAR OFF FOR A MINUTE. TURNED CAR BACK ON AND ALL INDICATOR LIGHTS REMAINED. CALLED LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY AND HAD TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. HONDA DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THEY NOTICED MISFIRES AS WELL WHEN TESTING AND CAR WAS NOT PERFORMING WELL. DEALERSHIP INDICATED THE FOLLOWING IN DIAGNOSTIC REPORT: "FOUND ENGINE OIL TO BE OVER FILLED. CODE P0300 RANDAM MISFIRE. THERE WAS GAS IN THE FUEL - PERFORMED OIL CHANGE AND UPDATED THE PGM - FI SYSTEM" AFTER CONDUCTING RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CRV 2018 MODELS, BUT THERE IS NOT AN OFFICIAL RECALL. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA THAT GAS GETS IN TO THE OIL PANEL AND DILUTES THE OIL WITH GAS. THIS IS BOTH A SAFETY AND MECHANICAL ISSUE THAT NEEDS FIXED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS HAD OUR CAR MISFIRED AT HIGHER SPEED THIS COULD HAVE EASILY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH THE AMOUNT OF LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS WILL ALSO ASSUREDLY EFFECT THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLES ENGINE AS OIL IS DILUTED BY GAS. THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT FORTHCOMING WITH INFORMATION REGARDING THIS KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA OF GAS GETTING INTO THE OIL TANK AND CAUSING STALLING AND MISFIRES ISSUES JUST AS WHAT HAPPENED TO US. IT WAS NOT UNTIL WE TOLD THEM WE FOUND INFORMATION ON IT OURSELVES DID THEY RECOGNIZE IT. WE WERE INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT OUR PARTICULAR VIN HAD ALREADY HAD THE UPDATE AND FIX THAT WAS SUGGESTED BY HONDA FOR THIS ISSUE. IF THAT IS THE CASE, THEN IT DID NOT REMEDY OUR VEHICLE, AND THIS IS STILL A SAFETY ISSUE HONDA NEEDS TO RECTIFY WITH ITS CUSTOMERS.

GAS LEAKS INTO THE ENGINE WHILE I'M DRIVING, WHICH WILL INEVITABLY ENGINE FAILURE AND THE CAR WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING, THIS POSES A RISK FOR MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION..

AFRAID THIS CAR WILL CATCH ON FIRE! ENGINE OIL IS GETTING DILUTED WITH FUEL DUE TO THE TURBO ENGINES ON THE 2017 -2018 HONDA CRVS. I NOTIFIED STEVENSON HENDRICK HONDA IN DECEMBER 2018 OF A FUEL SMELL IN CABIN OF CAR WHILE DRIVING AND AN MIL (MALFUNCTION ERROR CAME UP & ALL SAFETY FEATURES WERE DISABLED UNTIL I CUT CAR OFF AT NEXT STOP AND RESTARTED. DEALERSHIP CHECKED THE CAR ON 12/24/18 AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AGAIN DUE TO FUEL SMELL IN CABIN & WE HAD CHECKED OIL & THE DIPSTICK REAKED OF FUEL & WAS WAY OVER THE HIGH MARK. TOOK CAR ON 8/10/19 AND I MADE SERVICE MANAGER TONY CHECK OIL IN FRONT OF ME TO VERIFY FUEL WAS IN IT. THEY SAID THEY CHANGED COMPUTER MODULE AND DID SOME UPDATES TO FIX & TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK ON 8/1/717 AT 8;00 FOR INSTALL OF SPARK PLUGS THEY ORDERED. DROVE 40 MILES BACK HOME AND FUEL WAS ALREADY IN THE OIL AGAIN! CALLED DEALERSHIP BACK TO LET THEM KNOW I WANT THE OIL/OIL FILTER CHANGED AGAIN ON 8/17/19 WHEN THEY DO SPARK PLUGS AND THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO CHECK OIL IN CAR. I CONTACTED HONDA AS WELL & SPOKE TO "CAT". SHE WASN'T HELPFUL AT ALL AND REFUSED TO TELL ME WHY THE SOFTWARE UPDATE NOTICE THEY SENT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT FUEL DILUTION IN THE OIL. IT ONLY REFERRED TO ERROR CODES & WHIRLING NOISE IN ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THIS PROBLEM HAS ONLY BEEN HAPPENING IN "COLD WEATHER REGIONS" AND THAT I AM THE FIRST THEY HAVE HEARD OF. I TOLD THEM THAT IF PEOPLE DON'T CHECK THEIR OIL OR IF THE DEALERSHIP DOESN'T TELL THE CONSUMER WHEN THEY CHANGE THEIR OIL THAT THEY WOULDN'T KNOW THEY HAD A PROBLEM SINCE IT HAS NOT BEEN DISCLOSED TO THE CONSUMERS.THIS CAR SCARES ME ME & I'M AFRAID MY ENGINE WILL CATCH ON FIRE FROM THIS ISSUE!

THIS IS ABOUT MY 2018 HONDA CR-V EX WITH AROUND 14,700 MILES AT PRESENT.MY WHOLE FAMILY AND A FRIEND WENT TO YAKIMA,WA FOR CHERRY PICKING.ON OUR WAY THERE FROM SEATTLE,WA WHILE DRIVING USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) AND LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM (LAKAS) SUDDENLY A WARNING FROM THE SCREEN APPEARED THAT SAYS..."POWER REDUCED - POWER GRILLE PROBLEM" AND THEN WE CAN NOT ACCELERATE THE SPEED. LUCKILY WE MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY FOR EMERGENCY PARK AND WAIT FOR 5 TO 10 MINUTES UNTIL THE WARNING GOES OUT FROM THE SCREEN. WHEN IT GOES OUT WE START THE ENGINE AND START DRIVING AGAIN AND AFTER 7 TO 10 MINUTES THE WARNING GOES ON AGAIN ,STOP AND GOES AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME AND WE DECIDED TO TURN OFF THE ACC AND LKAS AND DRIVE IN A LOWER SPEED 60 TO 65 MPH IN A 70 MPH SPEED LIMIT ZONE.THE NEXT MORNING I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL FILL COMPARTMENT AND THE ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK AND FOUND OUT THEY HAVE A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL.GASOLINE LEAKS TO THE ENGINE OIL COMPARTMENT.WHEN I CHECKED THE DIPSTICK , THE OIL IS DRIPPING LIKE WATER WITH BLACKISH COLOR BECAUSE OF THE GASOLINE MIXED TO THE OIL. I REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR GOING TO THEM INSTEAD THE TOWING COMPANY (AAA) DO THE JOB TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP.AND THE DAY WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR THEY TOLD ME THAT THE GASOLINE I SMELL FROM THE COMPARTMENT IS NORMAL DUE TO COMBUSTION. I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK TO PROVE TO THEM THAT IT SMELLS GASOLINE AND DRIPPING LIKE WATER WITH BLACKISH COLOR (THIS IS A NEWLY CHANGED PURE SYNTHETIC ENGINE OIL /90% REMAINING).THEY DID NOT CHECK THE DIPSTICK AND TOLD ME THEY CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT AND TOLD ME TO IT'S NORMAL.THEY SAID IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR. I'M JUST HOPING THIS PROBLEM BE RESOLVED VERY SOON.

THIS VEHICLE AFTER HAVING 4500 MILES, BEGAN TO SMELL TERRIBLY OF GASOLINE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED , DID NOT WANT TO RUN, AND STALLED A FEW TIMES BEFORE I WOUND UP AT THE DEALERSHIP. I ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN THE LITTLE WRENCH CAME ON, FOR A NOTIFICATION OF THE FIRST OIL CHANGE, THAT THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD GROWLING NOISE. THE VEHICLE IS SITTING IN THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT NOW WAITING A HOPEFUL REPAIR. HERE I AM WITH NO VEHICLE, AND A $400 PER MONTH PAYMENT. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE IN TODAY'S WORLD. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED, BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS ALLOWED TO BE PUT UP FOR SALE . A VEHICLE IS DEEMED NOT SAFE, WHEN IT'S STALLS ON YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC.

I FEAR THE VEHICLE WILL STALL IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION, AND THE FUMES IN THE CABIN MAKE ME FEEL SICK.

REPORTED THE FIRST OCCURRENCE TO THE MCGRATH CITY HONDA, CHICAGO, IL IN JANUARY 2019 ALONG WITH THE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT PICTURES AND THEY REPLACED SOME FUEL SENSORS AND INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE (DEFECTIVE PART). SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED IN FEBRUARY 2019, COULD NOT TAKE PHOTOS AS THE PROBLEMS WENT AWAY AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
