2017 Honda CR-V complaints

ENGINE STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES IN LAST ONE YEAR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM YELD/STOP. IT HAPPED TWICE WHILE YIELDING AND MERGING ONTO HIGHWAYS; WE WERE LUCKY THERE WERE NO VEHICLES ON HIGHWAY DURING MERGING, OTHERWISE SITUATION WOULD HAVE THE WORST . ALSO ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD FLASHES WITH FAILURE WARNINGS. AT THAT POINT ENGINE ALMOST STALLED RUNNING ONLY AT SPEED OF 10 M/H ATLEAST WHICH HELPED ME TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY. I SWITCHED OFF AND ON, ENGINE CAME LIVE, BUT ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE STILL THERE. WARNINGS ON THE DASHBOARD WERE CLEARED ONLY NEXT DAY AFTER WHOLE NIGHT IDLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER, EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND ALSO PROVIDED THEM THE VIDEO THAT MY FRIEND SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT RECORDED WHILE INCIDENT HAPPENED. DEALERSHIP TRIED TO PULL THE ERROR CODE, BUT NONE WERE FOUND. DEALER ASKED ME TO KEEP THE VEHICLE WITH DEALERSHIP AS THEY NEED TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. FORTUNATELY THEY REPRODUCED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, AND FOUND THE ENGINE CYLINDER MISFIRES IN 1 AND 4. THEY INTIMATED HONDA ENGINEERING FOR ASSISTANCE, AND HONDA ASSISTED THEM TO RECALIBRATE THE SYSTEM WITHOUT FINDING THE ROOT CAUSE. DEALERSHIP RECALIBRATED AND DIRECTED BY HONDA AND TOLD ME THAT IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN THAT WILL BE FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. ALL THESE TRANSCRIPTS WERE RECORDED IN SERVICE HISTORY OF MY VEHICLE. THE SAME ISSUE APPEARED YESTERDAY AGAIN. WHEN I RESEARCHED ABOUT THE ISSUE ON INTERNET, MOST OF THEM COMPLAINED ABOUT THE ENGINLE OIL AND GAS MIXUP. I CH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MANCHESTER HONDA (24 ADAMS ST, MANCHESTER, CT 06042) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND HONDA WAS WORKING ON A REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,423.

MY 2017 HONDA CRV EX 1.5 LTR TURBO ENGINE HAS AN OIL DELUTION ISSUE FUEL IS GETTING INTO THE CRANKCASE DELUTING THE OIL TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ALL THEY DID WAS CHANGE THE OIL I CONTACTED HONDA GOT A CASE NUMBER#09145359 THEY SAID SOMEONE WOULD CALL ME ABOUT THE ISSUE. NO ONE HAS CALLED AT THIS TIME NOV 26TH 2018

MY 1.5L TURBO CHARGED ENGINE HAS A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR IN THE ENGINE OIL. SO GASOLINE IS MIXING WITH MY ENGINE OIL AND MAY CAUSE EARLY ENGINE FAILURE OR A SAFETY ISSUE. I NOTICED THE GASOLINE SMELL WHEN CHANGING MY ENGINE OIL AND THE CAR IS PARKED.

ON 11/24/2018 ON I-81 NEAR STAUNTON VA. DURING HEAVY RAIN AND HOLIDAY TRAFFIC AT 70 MPH IN LEFT LANE PASSING TANDEM 18 WHEELER ON INCLINE WITH 18 WHEELER CLOSE BEHIND CAR SUDDENLY ENTERED "LIMP" MODE. CAR BEGAN MISSING BADLY WITH NO POWER AND BEGAN SLOWING TO A DRIFT. COULD NOT MOVE RIGHT, PULLED AS FAR LEFT TO GUARD RAIL, RIGHT SIDE CAR WHEELS STILL IN PASSING LANE, TRAFFIC SWERVED AROUND THE CAR. AT APROX. 10 MPH I HAD A SLIGHT BREAK IN TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE SWERVE ACROSS TRAFFIC TO RIGHT SIDE. SURPRISINGLY THE CAR IDLED FINE. BACKED DOWN RIGHT SIDE 1/4 MILE TO EXIT, DROVE IN "LIMP" MODE TO HONDA DEALER. THE DEALER HAD FOUND THE CAR HAD ENTER LIMP MODE BECAUSE WATER HAD ENTERED INTO THE MAF SENSOR AND INTAKE TUBE. THE AIR BOX HAD NOT BEEN PROPERLY SEALED LIKELY DURING A DEALER SERVICE 1 WEEK PRIOR. THE AIR FILTER WAS WET AND REPLACED. INTAKE TUBE AND MAF SENSOR PULLED AND DRIED. MY ISSUE IN WRITING THIS IS THE CAR SHOULD NOT ENTER "LIMP" MODE AND CUT POWER JUST BECAUSE A SENSOR REPORTS IN BAD. CARS ARE DESIGNED TO CRUMPLE TO ABSORB IMPACT AND SAVE THE DRIVERS BUT YET HERE "LIMP" MODE IS DESIGNED TO SAVE THE EQUIPMENT ACTUALLY PUTS THE OCCUPANTS AND IN MY CASE OTHERS ON A CROWDED INTESTATE HIGHWAY AT RISK. A CAR SHOULD NEVER BE DESIGNED TO PUT ITS PASSENGERS AND THOSE AROUND THEM AT RISK AS THIS CRV DID IN MY CASE. LIMP MODE IS A VERY VERY BAD IDEA.

INFOTAINMENT SCREEN WILL RANDOMLY FLASH, DIM AND BEEP. THIS HAS CAUSED SEVERAL SAFETY ISSUES INCLUDING HIGH LEVEL OF DISTRACTION AND FAILURE OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AT ALL THE WRONG TIMES. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STOPPED. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO FIND A SOLUTION. THEY CLAIM NO ONE ELSE HAS REPORTED SIMILAR PROBLEMS. THIS IS LAUGHABLE DUE TO ALL OF THE ONLINE COMPLAINTS AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS DOCUMENTING THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REFUSED TO ATTEMPT A REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF AFFECTED DEFECTED COMPONENTS.

EXCESSIVE OIL IN SUMP. ROOT CAUSE IS FUEL MIXED WITH OIL.

BATTERY WAS DEAD AFTER PARKING ON STREET, HAD TO CALL FOR EMERGENCY ROAD SERVICE TO JUMP CAR. THERE WAS NO EXCESSIVE USAGE OF BATTERY OR ELECTRONICS IN THE CAR

I NOTICED A GAS SMELL IN MY CABIN OF THE CAR AND CHECKED THE OIL AND NOTICED A GAS SMELL THERE TOO. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALLS FROM HONDA. I AM TRYING TO GET AN APPOINTMENT, BUT IT'S BEEN DIFFICULT.

SHIFTER BUTTON POPPED OUT WHILE DRIVING/VEHICLE IN MOTION. DEALER INDICATED A FREQUENT ISSUE BUT NO HONDA RECALL.

SINCE PURCHASING MY HONDA CR-V 1.5 TURBO IN 2017 I HAVE EXPERIENCED TWO EPISODES OF MY CAR STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING ON NYC STREETS. ON BOTH OF THESE OCCASIONS I NARROWLY AVOIDED GETTING REAR ENDED AND BEING FORCED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE CAR BEHIND ME SWERVED TO AVOID COLLIDING INTO ME. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED MANY FAILURES OF MY HONDA SENSE SYSTEM WHEREBY MY ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILED, MY ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILED, WHERE MY AUDIO POWER WENT OFF, MY AUTO HIGH BEAM SYSTEM HAD FAILURES, WHICH LEAD ME TO FEEL VERY UNEASY DRIVING MY VEHICLE. AT ALL TIMES, MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THESE SYSTEM FAILURES WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING ON COUNTRY ROADS AND ALSO WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS! THIS WAS NOT A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE. THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED MANY TIMES!

FUEL IS MIXING IN OIL. THE OIL DIPSTICK SMELLS LIKE GAS AND THERE IS A GASOLINE SMELL IN THE CABIN WHEN THE HEAT IS ON. HONDA CALLS IT ABNORMAL OIL DILUTION. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER HE PUT DOCUMENTATION OF OIL SMELL ON DIPSTICK ON RECEIPT BUT SAID HONDA HAS NO FIX FOR THIS IN KANSAS. CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA CUSTOMER SERVICE REFERRED TO CLAIM MANAGEMENT TEAM WHO SAID NO FIX FOR THIS IN KANSAS AND HE "DOESN'T THINK IT WILL HURT THE ENGINE" EVEN IMMEDIATLY AFTER OIL CHANGE THE DIPSTICK STILL SMELLED LIKE GAS EVEN AFTER WIPING IT. I BELIEVE THAT OIL DILUTION CAN CAUSE WEAR DAMAGE TO AN ENGINE. I DRIVE MY CRV 3 MILES TO WORK.

AN ALARMING AMOUNT OF GASOLINE IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. ALSO THE CAR PRODUCES LITTLE HEAT WHEN THE HEATER IS ON.

VEHICLE HAS GASOLINE THAT GETS INTO THE OIL, RAISING THE LEVEL WHEN THE OIL IS CHECKED. THERE IS A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS WHEN YOU CHECK THE OIL. THE CAR WILL BE RUNNING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND ENGINE LOSES POWER AND YOU HAVE TO CRUISE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. LIGHTS THEN GO OFF AND ENGINE RUNS FINE, BUT THERE IS STILL A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE UNDER THE HOOD AND ESPECIALLY IN THE OIL. WE ARE AFRAID OF A POSSIBLE FIRE, ENGINE DAMAGE, OR LOSING POWER AND CONTROL (POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, ETC.), POSSIBLE CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

WHEN I WENT TO PUT MY CAR INTO PARK (CAR WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING SPOT) THE KNOB WAS MISSING AND NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. I WAS UNABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. I HAD TO ASK A STRANGER TO LOOK AROUND THE FLOOR BED AND OTHER POSSIBLE PLACES SO I COULD EXIT MY VEHICLE. IT RANDOMLY POPS OUT (WHILE DRIVING) AND I AM CONSTANTLY LOOKING FOR IT. HOW CAN I SAFELY DRIVE A CAR WHEN I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK?

FUEL IS GETTING IN ENGINE OIL AND DELUTING IT. 1.5 TURBO ENGINE. CALL HONDA OF AMERICA THEY SAID TO TAKE TO DEALER FOR INSPECTION. HONDA GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER. DEALER CHANGE OIL TOLD TO KEEP A WATCH ON IT. CALLED HONDA BACK WITH CASE NUMBER THEY SAID HONDA HAS NO FIX AT THIS TIME. I WAS TOLD JUST TO WATCH FOR SOMETHING ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE A FIX. MEANWHILE MY ENGINE IN BEING DAMAGED BY NOT HAVING PROPER OIL LUBERCATION FROM FUEL BEING IN OIL

GASOLINE IS GETTING INTO THE OIL, RAISING THE OIL LEVEL AND CAUSING THE OIL TO SMELL OF GASOLINE AND LOSE ITS EFFECTIVENESS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE GAS GETTING WHERE IT DOESN'T BELONG AND CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS AFTER 5 DAYS OF USE AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED BY THE DEALER BEFORE I BOUGHT IT.

OIL DILUTION. WHEN CHECKING THE LEVEL OF MY OIL, IT IS WAY OVERFULL ON THE DIPSTICK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ( ROUSH HONDA - MEDINA ), AND WAS INFORMED THAT YES, THE OIL LEVEL IS HIGH, AND THEY CONFIRMED OIL DILUTION WHERE THE OIL IS DILUTED WITH GASOLINE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT IS NORMAL AND DOES NOT POSE A PROBLEM. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEM, I HAVE READ OF INSTANCES WHERE PEOPLES CR-V'S HAVE STALLED OUT, AND OF PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. GASOLINE IN THE OIL CAN NOT BE RIGHT.

I SMELL GAS IN MY CABIN AND FOUND GAS IN MY ENGINE OIL WHICH WAS OVERFILLED. I FEEL DIZZY AND HAD HEADACHE DUE TO THAT SMELL.

ENGINE OIL BEING DILUTED BY GASOLINE CONTAMINATION, OVERFILLING THE CRANKCASE. LIQUID LEVEL IS ABOVE THE MAXIMUM LEVEL PERMITTED ON THE DIPSTICK. KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2017-2018 HONDA CR-VS. SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE STALLING WHILE DRIVING, THOUGH I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THAT YET. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN DISCOVERED.

OIL DILLUSTION GAS GETTING IN OIL ONLY 1000 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE ONLY 15000 ON CAR DEALER HAS NO FIX OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS

GAS IS MIXING WITH THE OIL CAUSING AN OVERFILL SITUATION IN THE ENGINE OIL. IT IS ALSO CAUSING THE OIL TO BE DILUTED AND MAY BE CAUSING PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR. YOU CAN CHECK THE OIL AND THE DIPSTICK CLEARLY SHOWS AN OVER FILL SITUATION AND YOU CAN SMELL GAS ON THE DIPSTICK.

I OCCASIONALLY NOTICED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE AROUND THE CAR. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL IT WAS ABOUT 1/4 IN. ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER (SCOTT HONDA OF WEST CHESTER) WHERE THEY CONFIRMED THE HIGH OIL LEVEL AND NOTED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE OIL. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TURBO ENGINE BUT HONDA DID NOT HAVE A FIX AVAILABLE. THE DEALER CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND WAS AUTHORIZED TO CHANGE THE OIL UNDER WARRANTY.

I FOUND A GAS SMELL IN THE OIL FOR MY 2017 HONDA CR V. THE DEALER SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE ON MY LAST OIL CHANGE. I TOOK THE CAR TO DAMSON HONDA ON 10/182018. THEY VERIFIED THAT GAS WAS IN THE OIL WITH AN .19 MM ADDITIONAL VOLUME. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS

THERE IS GAS IN MY OIL. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES YET, BUT I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY AND KNOW THAT THIS IS DAMAGING MY VEHICLE.

CRANKCASE IS FILLING WITH GASOLINE FROM THE CYLINDERS CAUSING A HIGH LEVEL ON THE OIL DIPSTICK (APPROX.1/2 INCH ABOVE THE HIGH MARK) ALSO KNOWN AS OIL DILUTION.OIL HAD NO VISCOSITY WHEN I CHANGED IT AND IT REAKED OF GASOLINE.TWO DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERS AND AMERICAN HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE ALL ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT THEY HAVEN'T COME UP WITH A REMEDY YET.MEANWHILE MY VEHICLES ENGINE AND I AM SURE THOUSANDS MORE ARE BEING PREMATURELY ABUSED AND WORN BECAUSE OF GASOLINE (SOLVENT) IN THE OIL.HONDA NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND SOON!

I CAN SMELL GAS INSIDE CABIN WHILE DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN CITY. CONCERNED ABOUT HEATH ISSUES IF I DRIVE THIS WITHOUT FIXING THE ISSUE.

AFTER THE SECOND OIL CHANGE AT 5000 MILES, I NOTICED A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN THE OIL. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS "NORMAL". I HAVE BEEN CHANGING OIL MORE FREQUENTLY IN HOPE THAT IT WILL ELIMINATE THIS PROBLEM. NOW MY CRV HAS 11500 MILES ON IT, THE OIL IS ALWAYS OVER FILL DUE TO OIL DILUTION. I GOT SO PISSED THAT HONDA BUILDS SUCH A [XXX] VEHICLE AND CHARGES US AT HIGH PRICE.

ON 10-11-18 I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM CONSUMER REPORTS WHICH INCLUDED AN ARTICLE ABOUT ISSUES WITH HONDA'S 1.5 TURBO ENGINES. I HAD RECENTLY BEEN NOTICING ENGINE RESPONSE LAG, ON MY 2017 CRV TOURING, SO I WENT OUT AND CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A FUEL SMELL ON THE DIP STICK. THE OIL LEVEL WAS APPROXIMATELY 1 INCH OVER THE TOP MARK. (TILL NOW I HAD NOT NOTICED AN ISSUE WHEN CHECKING OIL LEVEL PERIODICALLY SINCE MY 6-19-2018 OIL CHANGE). I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. AT MY HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS SCHEDULED FOR AN APPOINTMENT ON 10/18/2018. THEY SCHEDULED ME FOR AN OIL CHANGE. WHEN I ARRIVED FOR THE APPOINTMENT THE SERVICE REP. SAID HE HAD JUST TALKED TO THEIR HONDA REP. WHO CONFIRMED THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT A FIX WAS TO BE ROLLED OUT IN NOVEMBER 2018. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL PERIODICALLY SINCE THE OCTOBER SERVICE AND IT HAS BEEN CREEPING UP REGULARLY. AS OF 11-16-18 THE OIL LEVEL IS AGAIN ABOVE THE ORANGE PLASTIC PIECE THAT CONTAINS THE HIGH/LOW MARKINGS. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SHORT AND LONG-TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE AND OVERALL SAFETY. THIS IS OUR 7TH NEW HONDA AND WAS EXPECTING THIS TO BE OUR TRAVEL VEHICLE FOR MANY YEARS.

I DISCOVERED FUEL IN THE OIL OF MY 2017 TURBO HONDA CR V WHEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL. I HAVE APPROXIMATELY 2500 MILES SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE. I TOOK THE CAR TO BEAVERTON HONDA ON 11/16/2018 TO CHECK IT OUT. THEY "VERIFIED CUSTOMER'S CONCERNS OF FUEL IN ENGINE OIL." THEY ALSO "ADJUSTED OIL LEVEL" AND THEN REFERRED ME TO A HONDA VIDEO ON YOUTUBE. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THEY SIMPLY REMOVED GOOD OIL TO MAKE ROOM FOR MORE GAS IN THE OIL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS.. APPARENTLY, HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE.

OIL LEVEL WAS NOTICEABLY HIGHER AND HAD A FUEL SMELL TO IT. WE DID TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE NO FIX FOR IT AS OF NOW BUT TO CHANGE MY OIL MORE OFTEN.

WE BOUGHT OUR CRV FROM HONDA OF FIFE ON 9 APRIL 2017. SINCE THAT TIME, OUR CAR HAS HAD THREE STALLS. THE FIRST TWO WERE DURING THE MONTH OF MAY, 2017 AS WE WERE TRAVELLING AT SLOW RATES OF SPEED IN BLIZZARD AND HEAVY SNOW CONDITIONS IN MONTANA AND ALBERTA; THE TEMPERATURES WERE MILD, FOR SNOW STORMS, PROBABLY IN THE MID TO HIGH 20S F. IN BOTH OF THESE INSTANCES, THE VISIBILITY WAS ABOUT 100' AND WE WERE ALONE ON THESE ROADS; HOWEVER, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS TO BE PARKED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IF ANYONE ELSE HAD BEEN COMING OUT OF THE WHITE OF THE STORM; IN BOTH INSTANCES, THE CAR RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY. I'D THOUGHT THE ISSUE MIGHT BE POOR OR FROZEN FUEL SO DIDN'T REPORT THE ISSUE TO HONDA. THE THIRD TIME THE CRV STALLED WAS ON THE I-10 BRIDGE OVER THE MISSISSIPPI AT BATON ROUGE, LA.IN MARCH OF 2018.THE TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE 60S. IN THIS CASE, WE WERE IN VERY SLOW, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, IN A VERY TIGHT, NARROW LANE DUE TO CONSTRUCTION; THERE WERE NO TURN OUTS OR VERGES. AS WE STARTED THE CLIMB UP THE WEST SIDE OF THE BRIDGE, THE CAR STALLED , THERE WERE NO STOP LIGHTS OR BRAKES APPLIED AS I HAD NO WARNING THE CAR WAS GOING TO QUIT AND THE CAR BEHIND ME, BARELY STOPPED BEFORE REAR ENDING US. IT STARTED AGAIN IMMEDIATELY AND WE DID NOT CREATE A LONG TERM IMPEDIMENT TO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. AGAIN, I DID NOT REPORT THIS ISSUE AS I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE POOR FUEL. AMERICAN HONDA HAS CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH GAS GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL TOO; A DEALER NOTED

WHEN CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO, THE OIL LEVEL EXCEEDED THE "HIGH" MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. THE OIL ALSO HAD A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHANGED THE OIL. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR ~2000 MILES AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE OIL LEVEL AGAIN EXCEEDS TO HIGH MARK ON THE DIPSTICK AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE.

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING A FUEL SMELL IN THE PASSENGER CABIN. IT SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD FROM THE DEALER TO CHANGE THE OIL AND LET THE CAR WARM UP LONGER. THAT'S THE FIX. COME ON HONDA. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. YOU NHTSA NEED TO MAKE SURE HONDA IS HELD TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE.

SMELL OF GAS IS STRONGLY PRESENT ON THE OIL DIPSTICK. THE READING OF THE DIPSTICK IS ABOVE THE FULL MARK AND IT CONTINUES TO RISE. OIL WAS ALWAYS CHANGED BY DEALER. FOUL SMELL IS SOMETIMES VERY NOTICEABLE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. CAR HEAT IN COLD WEATHER IS VERY VERY SLOW BEFORE IT HEATS THE INTERIOR.

1. ENGINE OIL LEVEL AFTER A RECENT OIL CHANGE ( WITH VERY LESS MILEAGE) SHOWS THE OIL LEVEL IS HIGHER THAN THE "HIGHEST" INDICATOR POINT. IT APPEARS TO BE OIL IS GETTING DILUTED BY UNBURNT FUEL. THIS MAY POTENTIALLY HARM THE ENGINE!!.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE WORKS FINE, EXCEPT WHEN IT IS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY A STATIONARY VEHICLE IN FRONT AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON ADAPTIVE CRUISE SET AND IT FAILS TO IDENTIFY THE STATIONARY VEHICLE IN FRONT OF IT.

OIL ENGINE DELUTED WITH GAS. MIXED OIL LEVEL RISES 1 INCH EVERY 3000-5000 MILES. WHEN REACHES 22MM ABOVE "MAX" MARK ON THE DIP STICK THEN "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT COMES ON AND ENGINE STALLS. HONDA RECALLED 380000 UNITS IN CHINA FOR THE VERY SAME ISSUE. HERE IN US THEY DO NOTHING EXCEPT RISKING THE LIFE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. SHAME ! FORUMS AND YOUTUBE ARE FULL WITH THE SAME COMPLAIN EVEN SOME TV NEWS CHANNELS MENTIONED IT. HONDA , PLEASE FIX YOUR PROBLEMATIC ENGINE AND COMPENSATE THE CR-V OWNERS AND/OR BUY BACK YOUR OVERPRICED JUNK.

THE DETENT FOR THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER JUST POPPED OFF AND I HAD NO WAY TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK OR ANY OTHER GEAR FOR THAT MATTER. I CHECKED GOOGLE AND THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF OTHER PEOPLE DEALING WITH THIS SAME DEFECT.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AFTER PUTTING GAS IN (FUELING) HESITATION WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 15,000 MILES, HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOING ON, THEY INSIST THE CODES READ O2 SENSOR AND SEAL, STILL NOT FIXED.

OIL READING WAS TOO HIGH PASS THE MAX LEVEL PLUS FUEL SMELL MIXED IN WITH OIL . ( ENGINE OIL DILUTION )

AFTER READING ARTICLES DELINEATING THAT THE 2017 AND 2018 HONDA CRV 1.5L TURBO CHARGED ENGINES WERE RECEIVING COMPLAINTS REGARDING FUEL MIXING WITH THE OIL, I CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE DIPSTICK WAS ABOVE THE UPPER MARK BY A QUARTER OF AN INCH AND THE OIL SMELLED LIKE GASOLINE. CHANGED THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE OIL VISCOSITY WAS RUNNY AND THE OLD OIL HAD A STRONG FUEL SMELL. PRIOR TO CHANGING THE OIL, I HAD BEEN NOTICING A FUEL SMELL FROM TIME TO TIME WITHIN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2017 HONDA CR-V EX-L ON HIGHWAY (THE TRIP WAS ABOUT 10 HOURS), ABOUT HALF WAY OF MY TRIP, I COULD NOT REACH THE SPEED TO 55MPH WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 70MPH. MY ODOMETER WAS READING AROUND 30000MI. ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER (JUST TWO WEEKS AGO) I TOOK ANOTHER 2 HOUR ONE WAY TRIP, SIMILAR THING HAPPENED TO ME AGAIN ON MY WAY BACK (I COULD ONLY DRIVE AT ABOUT 60MPH WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 70MPH). I RAISED THE ISSUE WITH LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. I WILL SEE WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECKUP. IN ADDITION TO ABOVE POSSIBLE ENGINE/POWER/FUEL RELATED ISSUES, I HAD TWO INCIDENTS OF DEAD BATTERY WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING AFTER STOPPING MY CAR. ONE TIME (SUMMER 2018) I DROVE TO MY SON'S PRIVATE TEACHER'S HOUSE AND PARKED OUTSIDE. AFTER THE LESSON I COULDN'T START MY CAR. IT TOOK 4 HOURS FOR HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO COME AND FOUND OUT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. AFTER THE GENTLEMAN JUMP STARTED MY CAR IT WAS DRIVING FINE. IN SEPTEMBER 2018 I DID MY OIL CHANGE, THE DEALER'S EXAM SHOWED BATTERY LIFE GOOD. THEN JUST ABOUT 4 WEEKS AGO IN OCTOBER 2018, MY CAR PARKED IN MY GARAGE AND IT COULDN'T START AGAIN. THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FOUND OUT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND NO BATTERY LIFE. HONDA DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY FOR ME.

UPON REMOVING THE OIL CAP, THERE IS A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE MADE BY HONDA. WE WILL BE CONTACTING THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASE 10/2017. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 1,500 MILES. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE REPORTED STALLS AND LONG TERM EFFECT OF THE ENGINE ITSELF. I AM ALSO CONCERNED WITH POTENTIAL OF THE VEHICLE STALLING AND LOSING BOTH POWER STEERING AND ABS. I WANT THIS ISSUE ON RECORD WITH THE NHTSA.

VEHICLE LOSES POWER UNDER ACCELERATION. OIL DILUTION SEEMS TO BE THE APARENT CAUSE. OIL LEVEL IS WAY ABOVE THE 'MAX' LEVEL IN THE OIL DIPSTICK. STRONG GAS SMELL IN THE CABIN. PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD AMONG OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE (1.5 TURBO ENGINE). HONDA SAYS 'IT'S NORMAL', BUT THEN PROMISES THAT 'PROBLEM IS GOING TO BE FIXED IN NEXT YEAR MODEL'.

I'VE GOT 21000 MILES ON THIS CAR WHICH I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST FOUR TIMES FOR THE FOLLOWING: ALL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I COULDN'T RELEASE THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE. I WAS TOLD OIL WAS MIXING WITH GAS AND THAT HONDA HAS A FIX 'COMING SOON' I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY EACH TIME

FUEL SMELL, OIL DILUTION, POTENTIAL UNEXPECTED ENGINE FAILURE

*FUEL ECONOMY IS DOWN *EXCESSIVE OIL LEVEL *SMELL OF FUEL INSIDE THE CAR *STRONG SMELL OF FUEL IN THE ENGINE OIL

I GOT ENGIN LIGHTS ON MY CAR AND WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE CAR. THE DEALER JUST IGNORE THE PROBLEM AND REMOVE THE LIGHTS FROM THE THE DASH. I WENT TO DEALERSHIP 1 SEVERAL TIMES FOR THAT PROBLEM AND EVRY TIME HE DID THE SAME THING. THAT TIME I HAD THE WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE BUT AS SOO AS I WENT OVER WITH THE WARRANTY, THEY WANT TO FIX IT. THEY GAVE ESTIMATED OF $1200-1500. THEY SAID I HAVE TO CHANGE RADAR SENSOR. THEN I WENT TO THE SECOND DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID COMPLETELY DIFFERENTLY THING (4 CLYENDER NEEDED TO CHANGE). THEN I WENT TO THE THIRD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY CAR FUEL SYSTEM HAS SOME PROBLEMS. THEN I WENT TO THE OUT SIDE SHOP THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT YOUR CAR HAS MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. NOW MY VEHICLE HAS ENGINE LIGHT AND GAS MILEAGE WENT DOWN.
