2017 Honda CR-V complaints

PUSH KNOB ON MY GEAR SHIFT BROKE OFF WHILE PUTTING MY CAR INTO PARK. I WAS ABLE TO TAPE THE KNOB INTO PLACE SO I WOULD BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BACK HOME AND CHANGE GEARS.

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.

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.

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.

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.

WHILE APPROACHING AND CROSSING OVER A RAILROAD CROSSING AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH ON A CITY STREET, THE WORD BRAKE FLASHED A COUPLE TIMES AND MY CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED, SO HARD AS IF I SLAMMED MY BRAKES ON AND MY PURSE FLEW OFF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND I WAS JOLTED FORWARD, MY SEATBELT TIGHTENED. THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED ONE TIME SINCE THEN. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS A BRAKING PROBLEM OR FRONT CAMERA SENSORY PROBLEM BUT IT WAS VERY CONFUSING AND SCARY.

WHILE DRIVING FOR OVER 3 HOURS ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH ALL THE IDIOT LIGHTS COME ON BLINKING AND SHOWING THAT ALL SYSTEMS ARE OFF. 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.

VEHICLE OIL CONTINUES TO BE AT ELEVATED LEVELS, OIL SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE AND A GASOLINE SMELL CONTINUES TO BE PRESENT IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS STILL OCCURRING EVEN AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WITH A/C CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT WAS DONE IN NOVEMBER 2018.

STALLING, LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, SMELL OF GAS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, AUDIO DISPLAY ERRATIC, ALL WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION; FRONT RUNNING LIGHTS BLINKING WHEN FOOT ON BRAKE. PROBLEMS OCCUR IN COLD WEATHER.

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.

ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK SHOWS OIL LEVEL ABOVE FULL AND SMELLS OF GAS. HONDA DEALER CLAIMS NO KNOWLEDGE OF A PROBLEM ALTHOUGH IT IS WELL KNOWN IN INTERNET AUTO BLOGS. I HAD MY OIL TESTED AT BLACKSTONE LABORATORIES AND THE REPORT STATES IT CONTAINS 3.3% OF FUEL AND 'A FAIR AMOUNT OF METAL PRESENT', AND A FLASHPOINT OF 305 DEGREES WHEN IT SHOULD BE ABOVE 370. THIS IS A NEW CAR WITH ONLY 3534 MILES ON IT. OIL DILUTED WITH GAS COULD CAUSE MY ENGINE TO FREEZE UP WHILE DRIVING DUE TO LACK OF PROPER LUBRICATION. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM IN A TURBO ENGINE AND WILL END ITS LIFE PREMATURELY AND POSSIBLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT

CHECK OIL DEEP STICK . IT WENT OVER MAX BY 1 INCH AND IT SMELL GASOLINE. WENT TO HONDA DEALER TO FIX. THEY DID SOFTWARE UPDATE AND AC CPU REPLACE AND OIL CHANGED. STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES MY WIFE AND SON SMELL GAS I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT COMES FROM . REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW....

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL WAS MIXING WITH THE FUEL. THE DEALER (VANDERGRIFF HONDA, 1104 W INTERSTATE 20, ARLINGTON, TX 76017, (817) 533-4266) NOTICED THE FAILURE AND PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AT NO CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE 2,000 MILES LATER. THE CONTACT HAD AN OIL SAMPLE SENT OFF FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE RESULTS SHOWED OVER 5.3% OF FUEL IN THE OIL AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT ANY AMOUNT OVER 2% WAS INDICATION OF ANOTHER FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS AN UNKNOWN RECALL, BUT THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED IN THIS MANNER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

THE BUTTON ON THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR CAME OUT. WHEN I PUT IT BACK IN THE TRANSMISSION WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO PARK. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT THE TIME.

VEHICLE FREQUENTLY RUNS OUT OF BATTERY AND NEED TO JUMP START.

GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE OIL. LEVEL OF ENGINE OIL AS MEASURED WITH DIPSTICK RISING. INADEQUATE HEAT IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WHEN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE BELOW 25F WHEN DRIVING AROUND TOWN (10 MILES).

FUEL ODOR IN CABIN AFTER GETTING BACK ON ROAD AT TIMES WHEN REACHING DESTINATION. DIDN'T THINK TOO MUCH ABOUT IT TILL I RECENTLY SMELL GAS ON OIL DIP STICK. I WILL BE CALLING DEALERSHIP ASAP.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN THE FAST LANE OF THE 405 FREEWAY THE CAR STARTED TO VIBRATE AND MAKE A LOT OF NOISE. THEN IT SLOWED DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT A NORMAL RATE. I WENT FROM 65 MPH TO ABOUT 30MPH AND BARELY AVOIDED FASTER CARS WHILE PULLING TO THE EXIT LANE. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE SURFACE STREETS HOME. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET SO I CHECKED THE OIL FOR WATER AND FOUND A LOT OF GAS IN IT. THE DIPSTICK SHOWED THE LEVEL TO BE ALMOST 1 1/4 INCHES ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL LINE EVEN AFTER LETTING IT SIT FOR 30 MINUTES. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NORMAL AND SAID THE MANUFACTURER SAID ALL I NEED IS AN OIL CHANGE.

DILUTION OF ENGINE OIL, WHICH HAS BEEN INFILTRATED BY GASOLINE. LOW POWER IN DRIVING. STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT FIRST DETECTION OF GASOLINE SMELL.

GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE, GASOLINE OVERFILLING ENGINE OIL. GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE SHORTLY AFTER STARTING WHEN COLD. VEHICLE IS PARKED WHEN THE SMELL IS NOTICED. I'M ALSO WORRIED THAT WITH THE OIL MIXING WITH THE OIL THAT ENGINE FAILURE MAY HAPPEN.

MY CAR IS LESS THAN 39,000 MILES AND I HAD TO CHANGE ALL FOUR TIRES WHICH WERE GIVING ME ISSUES SINCE I PURCHASED LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO. JANUARY 3RD MY CAR WOULD NOT START. JAN 4TH AND 5TH AGAIN MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP WITHOUT A JUMP. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, RADIO BLINKING AND NOT COMING ON OR BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGING WITHOUT BRAKING ETC. SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED. I HAVE ONLY TAKEN TO HONDA DEALERS ONLY TO BE TOLD ISSUES NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY AND NO EXPLANATION WHY I NEED NEW TIRES AND NEW BATTER WITH A CAR LESS THAN TWP YEARS AND UNDER 39,000 MILES. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING BATTERIES AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND MY 2017 CAR IS AMONG THEM.

1.5 TURBO ENGINE HAS GASOLINE MIXING WITH OIL (OIL DILUTION) I HAVE 3000 MILES SINCE OIL CHANGE AND IS ABOUT 3/4 QUART OVER FULL MARK, OIL HAS EXTREME SMELL OF GASOLINE. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT SEEMS TO BE DOING NOTHING TO HELP OWNERS IN WHAT THEY CALL "WARMER CLIMATE STATES". THIS SHOULD BE VEIWED AS AN EMISSIONS PROBLEM AT SOME PONT BY THE NHTSA. I HAVE BEEN TO DEALER TWICE FOR VERIFICATION OF PROBLEM, THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL HONDA CORPORATE AUTHORIZES THE FIX WHICH IS BEING DONE IN COLD CLIMATE AREAS.

I CHECK ENGINE OIL YESTERDAY AND FOUND LEVEL VERY HIGH ON DIPSTICK AND SMELLING STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER CHECKERED FLAG WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TOOK IT DIRECTLY THERE.IT HAD ONLY BEEN 180 MILES DRIVEN SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE AT DEALER. THEY OFFERED TO CHANGE OIL AGAIN AND THEN TOLD ME TO KEEP CHECKING OIL LEVEL AND RETURN TO DEALER IN 1000 MILES. I WAS TOLD THE OIL LEVEL WAS HALF QUART OVER FILLED AND WAS BECAUSE GAS WAS NOT BEING BURNED DURING COMBUSTION BECAUSE ENGINE WAS NOT HOT ENOUGH. THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL AND NOT TO WORRY. I DON'T THINK THE OIL WILL PROTECT MY ENGINE WHEN IT IS SO DILUTED WITH GASOLINE.I FILED A COMPLAINT AND GOT A CASE NUMBER [XXX] FROM HONDA AMERICA, BUT WANT THE PROBLEM TO BE FIXED BEFORE THERE IS LONG TERM DAMAGE TO MY ENGINE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

LAST OIL CHANGE FOUND OIL LEVEL 1/2 QUART HIGH WITH A STRONG GAS SMELL. OIL SAMPLE WAS NOT AS VISCOUS AS OIL SHOULD BE. CONTACTED DEALER BUT NO RESPONSE YET.

IN COLD WEATHER, WHEN THE CAR ISN'T TO FULL OPERATING TEMPERATURE, FUEL MIXES WITH THE ENGINE OIL WHICH INCREASES THE OIL VOLUME OVER TIME. HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL IN NORTHERN STATES BUT REFUSES TO ADDRESS OTHER STATES WHERE THE PROBLEM EXISTS (PROBLEM FULLY DOCUMENTED FROM THE LOCAL DEALER). RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO ALL STATES. TOO MUCH ENGINE OIL (MIXED WITH FUEL) WILL CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL. IN ADDITION, AFTER TALKING TO HONDA CORPORATE - THEY INDICATED A POTENTIAL LONG TERM IMPACT WITH DAMAGED A CAM SHAFT. YET, THEY STILL REFUSE TO FIX MY CAR OR PROVIDE FREE OIL CHANGES UNTIL THEY DECIDE TO FIX IT. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR - FULLY DOCUMENTED.

DILUTION OF ENGINE OIL, WHICH HAS BEEN INFILTRATED BY GASOLINE. LOW POWER IN DRIVING. STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT FIRST DETECTION OF GASOLINE SMELL.

IT SMELLS LIKE GAS IN THE CAR

THE OIL DIPSTICK IS SHOWING THE OIL LEVEL TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER THAN THE MAX OIL LEVEL. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER 1/2/19. THEY SHOWED ME A SERVICE BULLETIN INDICATING THAT GAS COULD BE MIXING WITH THE OIL, BUT HONDA CONSIDERED THAT A NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION FOR THAT MODEL. THEY OFFERED NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM, BUT DID CHANGE THE OIL AT MY REQUEST. I CONSIDER GAS MIXING WITH THE CRANKCASE OIL A SERIOUS PROBLEM. ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN THE CITY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF. VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE, CREATING SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER CONFIRMED ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK HAD UNUSALLY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. VEHCILE HAS BEEN SERVICED ONCE BY HONDA DEALER. I WAS ASSURED THAT ALL NECESSARY FIXES WERE MADE. SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. RETURNED VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER FOR ADDITIONAL SERVICE.

SHIFTER BUTTON (KNOB) ON SIDE OF SHIFTER FELL OUT. CAR WAS STATIONARY RUNNING - JUST STARTED VEHICLE BUT IN "PARK". PART APPEARS TO BE BROKEN PLASTIC. GRAYISH COLOR IS POSSIBLE FAILURE AREA (PHOTO ATTACHED). 12/31/18; 5:50 PM EST; ODOMETER 19907

MY HONDA 2017 CRV WAS PARKED ALL NIGHT.WHEN I WENT OUT THIS MORNING ALL THE WINDOWS AND THE SUN ROOF WERE OPEN.WY KEY FOB WAS ON A TABLE BY ITSELF AND MY WIFE'S. WAS IN HER PURSE.I WAS OUTSIDE AT MIDNIGHT AND ALL WAS OK.ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT I WAS NOT ALONE AND HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM.MY SEATS AND CONSUL WERE VERY WET.THIS COULD LEAD TO THEFT AND A LOT OF DAMAGE.PLEASE CONTACT HONDA AS CONSUMERS COMPLAINTS GO UNANSWERED. THANK YOU.

THE CAR IS STALLING FROM TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. IT'S HAS BEEN DETERMINED THERE IS FUEL GETTING INTO THE OIL PAN CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL AT TIMES, MAKING MERGING INTO TRAFFIC UNSAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. DCH HONDA OF NANUET (10 NY-304, NANUET, NY 10954, (845) 367-4380) STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL. THE CONTACT ALSO NOTIFIED THE DEALER OF A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL AND OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V442000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) WAS REFERENCED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. *TT*JB

THE PLASTIC SHIFT KNOB BUTTON POPPED OUT OF THE SHIFTER HANDLE WHILE THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND IN GEAR. I COULD NOT STOP THE ENGINE OR SHIFT GEARS. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THE PLASTIC BUTTON FROM THE FLOOR OF THE CAR WITH MY LEFT HAND AND INSERT IT LOOSLEY INTO THE SHIFTER HANDLE AND THEN PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF.

THE HONDA CR-V 2017 TOURING MODEL HAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL KEYLESS REMOTE TRANSMITTER ERROR MESSAGES ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY. THE LAST TIME THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED WAS ON DECEMBER 24, 2018 AT AROUND 5:00 PM AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT STOP RUNNING. WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK I PUSHED THE START/STOP BUTTON REPEATEDLY WITH MY FOOT ON AND OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET TNE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING WAS TO WALK AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE TRANSMITTER AND HAVE THE PASSENGER PUSH THE START/STOP BUTTON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE HONDA DEALER ON DECEMBER 26, 2018 AND THEY SAID - "NO PROBLEM FOUND AT THIS TIME". THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY THE ENTIRE TIME OF THIS INCIDENT.

GASOLINE ENTERS ENGINE OIL CAUSING IT OVERFILLS AND FAR EXCEEDING THE MAX MARK. ENGINE OIL ALSO HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. IT MAY CAUSE LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE WITH ENGINE OIL DILUTED.

WHEN I GOT INTO CAR IN SHOPPING PLAZA PARKING LOT I ATTEMPTED TO PUT MY VEHICLE IN REVERSE AT WHICH TIME AND THE GEAR SHIFTER KNOB FELL OUT AND CRUMBLED INTO PIECES. 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 SHIFTER KNOB, HONDA PART NO. HONDA 54132TLAA62ZB, FELL OFF DURING USE. THIS LOCKS THE TRANSMISSION IN WHATEVER GEAR WAS LAST USED - A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE HERITAGE HONDA SERVICE ADVISOR TELLS ME THAT HONDA IS EXPERIENCING A LOT OF THESE FAILURES.

UPON SEEING ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE IN THE CR-V'S AND CIVICS, I INSPECTED THE OIL IN MY 2017 HONDA CR-V ONLY 100 MILES AFTER IT WAS CHANGED BY THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER. I PULLED OUT THE DIPSTICK AND NOTICED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS OVER THE RECOMMENDED LIMIT AND IT WAS VERY DARK IN COLOR. I LEANED INTO THE ENGINE AND NOTICED A STRONG PRESENCE OF A GASOLINE SMELL. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THE PRESENCE OF THIS SMELL BEFORE INSIDE OF THE CABIN BUT I THOUGHT IT COULD BE FROM SOMETHING ELSE. I AM CONVINCED IT'S COMING FROM THE ENGINE. HONDA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

MY 2017 HONDA CRV HAS FUEL IN THE OIL, CONFIRMED BY DEALERSHIP. THE LAST TIME I HAD IT TO DEALERSHIP THEY CONFIRMED IT HAD 2 QUARTS OF FUEL IN THE CRANKCASE OIL . THIS IS A HAZARD BECAUSE THE ENGINE COULD OVERHEAT AND LOCK UP AS I DRIVE, WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. THIS ALSO LOWERS THE VALUE OF MY CAR. THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T FIX IT! I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 800 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE . IT IS CURRENTLY A QUART HIGH ON DIPSTICK AND OIL SMELLS OF FUEL.

OIL DILUTION FROM FUEL

MY CAR HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS ON THE DIP STICK AND IT IS OVER THE FULL MARK. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN MY CR-V TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY CAR AT. THEY RECOGNIZE THE GAS SMELL AND OVER FULL MARK. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHANGED THE OIL DECEMBER 12TH. 2018 TODAY IS DECEMBER 24TH 2018. I CHECKED THE OIL WHEN THE CAR WAS COLD AND ON A FLAT SURFACE AND THE DIP STICK SHOWS OVERFILL AND HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS.

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. THE HONDA DEALER AT OCEAN HONDA IN NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA, REPLACED THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON 12/17/18 BUT IT IS NOT SHIFTING SMOOTHLY NOW WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE.

FUEL SMELL IN CABIN AND OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE. FOUND OIL LEVEL HIGH WITH HONDA SERVICE DOING ALL MAINTENANCE. HIGHLY DOUBT UPDATED SOFTWARE WILL PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 61,000 MILES. BEEN DOING THIS SINCE PURCHASE.

AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFT HANDLE BUTTON （SHIFT LEVER KNOB ）BROKEN （CAME APART INTO PIECES）。UNABLE TO CHANGE GEARS。

ENGINE OIL LEVEL ABOVE FILL MARK AND HAS STRONG SMELL OF GAS. TYPICALLY DRIVING. CABIN TEMP IS BELOW WHAT I AM ACCUSTOMED AND ENGINE WILL NOT WARM-UP QUICKLY IN COLD WEATHER. CONSUMER REPORTS HAS A REPORT THAT SEEMS TO MATCH MY CONCERNS. SUPPOSEDLY HONDA HAS A FIX, BUT DEALER SAID NO FOR MY VIN.

ONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE SHIFT HANDLE BROKE APART. CAR COULD NOT BE SHIFTED INTO PARK OR REVERSE, ONLY INTO DRIVE1 AND DRIVE 2. ENGINE COULD BE TURNED OFF BUT NOT THE ACCESSORIES THEREBY CAUSING BATTERY FAILURE. CAR WAS BEING PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. TOWING COMPANY AND DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THIS HAS OCCURRED BEFORE.

THE LOCKOUT BUTTON ON THE SIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER POPPED OFF, PREVENTING THE VEHICLE FROM SHIFTING OUT OF PARK. THIS CAN OBVIOUSLY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE DISABLED. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2017-2018 HONDA CR-VS, BUT I COULDN'T FIND A RECALL FOR IT.
