Vehicle was driven friday 1/3/2020 in a mix of driving that included thirty-five miles at 70mph+ and secondary trip of ten miles in town that was a mix of traffic lights and slow moving traffic. while driving vehicle in slow moving traffic cabin of vehicle filled with gas fumes, first faintly, but became worse until headache and nausea occurred. vehicle was eventually parked and rested for ten minutes to check oil along with interior air refresh. while checking oil i observed the oil level .75 inches above the full mark on the dip stick with an overall strong odor of fuel. engine operated as it always has, no check engine light, and no evidence of drive ability problems. oil level was also observed to be .75 inches above full mark 11/24/2019 and subsequent photo was taken. oil was changed 1/4/2020 at 50,189 with oil life at 50% with 5,714 miles. prior oil change service occurred at 44,475 miles on 8/27/2019 and the oil level was verified at full line . fuel smells have been noticed in this vehicle since 300 miles on ...
Oil level rises to above height mark on dipstick. engine power loss. smell of gas in cabin. oil leak because of rising oil level in engine.
The emissions light came on, started to have an odor of gasoline in the cabin, fuel milage has decreased, rough idle, hesitation in acceleration. happen in motion, stationary, and when vehicle was off. this vehicle is used mostly on the highway, in the mid-atlantic region.
Gas gets in the oil, gas fumes go into the car itself and make us dizzy while driving (not safe). car sputters (not safe) and heater does not get warm enough to keep the windshield clear in cold weather reducing viability and creating a safety issue. it takes 15 minutes of driving for car to warm up, i don't know how to see out of the windshield for the first 15 minutes. i'm aware this is a known issue with my model, i would like honda to do a recall and really actually fix it. dealer says there is no fix at this time. the service campaign isn't working. i'm reading that the 2019 were supposedly fixed with the same service campaign and it's not working.
On 10/16/2019, dealer replaced all of the fuel injectors, because they failed honda's tests. picked up the vehicle on the evening of 10/16/2019 and drove it home. started driving it to work on 10/17/2019 and while accelerating on the interestate, the engine started misfiring (violent thuds) and the check engine light started flashing repeatedly. i lost power and was able to make it to the side of the road. as soon as the vehicle was stopped, i placed the vehicle in park and then the check engine light no longer blinked or illuminated. had the vehicle towed to the honda dealership. vehicle did not misfire prior to the repairs made by honda. attached is the fuel injector repairs invoice. i also had all required maintenance as indicated in the honda service manual. vehicle has approximately 61000 miles.
Started the vehicle to go home and "emissions system problem" appeared on the dash, along with a check engine light. i was stationary and in a parking lot. was able to drive it back home. took vehicle to honda dealer on 10/14/2019. determined it was a misfire of the fuel injectors and they needed to be replaced. i also had the vehicle serviced as recommended by honda since purchasing it new, which included engine induction service. had 59680 miles on the odomoeter and has the 1.5l turbo engine. i also had all recalls completed when notified.
Engine oil level on dipstick way above what it should be and there is a strong gasoline smell in the engine oil. the honda maintenance minder says 70% engine oil life is left. also the seat heaters don't seem to work. based on what i read online this seems to be somehow linked with the engine oil dilution issue
Tl* the contact's friend owns a 2017 honda cr-v. the contact stated that fuel was leaking into the engine oil without warning. when the contact's friend checked the oil, the oil tank had overflowed and a fuel odor was detected on the oil dipstick. the contact's friend took the vehicle to don ayres honda (4740 lima rd, fort wayne, in 46808, 260-484-0551) and was informed that they could replace the oil. the manufacturer was notified and provided a case number. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 36,000.
Fuel is penetrating the oil in the engine. strong gasoline smell is present on the outside of the vehicle after driving it, regardless of distance. gasoline smell fills cabin while driving vehicle. problems are occurring regardless of distance driven or terrain. fuel is diluting the oil in the vehicle in such large amounts that the oil level is beyond the full level on the oil dip-stick. took vehicle to the dealership, and they informed me that it is a know issue, but that they could not fix it since there is no recall active.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 honda cr-v. while driving between 40-45 mph up a small hill, the vehicle lost power and failed to move. the contact also stated that the vehicle rode roughly and sounded as if it had a diesel engine. the contact drove the vehicle home. when the oil was checked with the dipstick, it was over the orange indicator line onto the metal and there was an odor of fuel. the contact called dch honda of temecula (located at 26755 ynez rd, temecula, ca 92591, (951) 268-9197) and was advised to have the vehicle towed to their facility. the dealer was unable to detect the presence of fuel in the oil. the contact stated that when she purchased the vehicle a few weeks ago, the dealer changed the oil. the contact stated that the vehicle had been at the dealer almost two weeks and was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified and stated that they would speak with the dealer. if the failure recurred, the contact was instructed to take the vehicle back to the dealer. the approximate failure mileage was 5,000.
Fuel in oil causing high oil level and lowering the viscosity of the oil causing pre mature wear of engine components.
The oil in my engine is being diluted with gasoline. the dipstick never goes below full and the oil is thin and dirty. this is just 1 month after an oil change. occasionally the gas fumes enter the passenger compartment and make driving the car unpleasant. honda dealer says there is no problem. this is an ongoing problem. date below is the last time gas fumes were inside the passenger compartment.
Ran premium gas only and changed oil twice as often as recommended but recently (4/2019) checked oil and it read way above full, looked almost clear after 1500 miles, and smelled strongly of gas again. i noticed the car was accelerating slower and slower than when new. read up on gas in oil problems with this car and saw that honda offered no fix for cars in the state where i live and dealerships apparently deny there is gas in the oil. i was concerned after reading about engines stalling, which of course they will do with gas in the crankcase, honda did recall work on this car that involved changing the oil but not the filter which is ridiculous and which doesn't even begin to address this huge engine problem. i believe this is a potential safety issue because of the risk of the car potentially losing power and/or stalling in freeway traffic. honda has not only not fixed this problem, they continue to sell these cars with engine defects even after they have known about it since 2017.
During oil changes, more oil was coming out than was being put in. oil clearly smells like fuel. when i brought this to honda's attention in early april, i was told to go to a certified honda dealership to get a diagnosis. during the diagnosis done on 4/17/2019, they performed an oil change at 80% oil life which indicated that oil levels were elevated by approximately 1/4th of a quart. i can only imagine how diluted the oil would be at 10 or 15% oil life. according to my case manager and as stated in this paperwork, this is "normal". paperwork provided below with personal information redacted.
Car stalled. and vents smell of gasoline, gear shift is loose. almost got in a car accident with my toddler and husband in car.
