I bought car used from GM dealership 3/16/19, wasn't aware of problem until first scheduled oil change.gas mixing in with oil causing oil level to rise significantly over short period of time, about a quart high with around 2,000 miles driven, mostly highway. Honda service had me bring in vehicle after oil change to check level, then again after 1,000 miles to recheck. Brought in in after about 1700 miles and oil was up about a quart according to service manager. Honda dealer performed software "fix" to alleviate problem, but after 1,500 miles, oil level up significantly again. Dealer contends Honda doesn't have protocols in place to take care of issue yet. Car in Honda dealership today again for assessment, third oil change in 2 months. Difficult to evaluate cars performance since I bought used and never had normal baseline to compare to.

The engine oil keeps increasing in volume causing me to drain about 1/2 qt about every 1000-1500 miles. If you do not keep a check on this it will degrade or cause engine failure. I live in Georgia which has a mild climate.

My 2018 Honda cr V has the 1.5 litre turbo engine. I have reviewed several hundred complaints that have been filed regarding the mixing of the fuel/gas with the engine oil. The issue seems to be more prevalent in the North, however, I have the same issue here in Oklahoma. Upon engine start there is a strong odor of gasoline coming from the rear passenger seating. I have also noted increase oil levels in the engine crankcase. Also the smell of gasoline coming from the oil dipstick. I am writing to inquire if Honda motor company intends to do something to remedy this issue. The smell starts at the moment the engine is started.. the car can be stationary and I can still notice the smell of fuel. Prolonged exposure of fuel in the crankcase will certainly reduce the life of these engines. Please advise me as to how I can resolve this matter with Honda? thank you.

I bought a Honda CR-V 2018 last year in May. The vehicle only have 8000 miles on it. Now I recently notice that when I am starting the car when pressing on the brake and pressing the start button. It will try to start but fails. It seems you need to do this numerous times to start the vehicle. This have been happening to me in the last 3 days. I called the Honda dealer about it and schedule an appointment with them tomorrow.

Oil dilution bad gas smell from oil can cause a fire car only has 3750 miles

- Kew Gardens, NY, USA

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.. the Honda dealer where I purchased the vehicle is aware of this and recommended an oil change. 48 hours later my oil is completely diluted with gasoline again. There is a strong gas odor in the cabin of my car which is a health hazard to myself and my 2 small children, one with asthma. I've contacted Honda of America several times regarding this issue with no solution.

Gasoline is leaking into the engine oil. A warranty repair was done Jan 2019 to resolve the problem but in Sept 2019 the engine oil was noted to be above full and smell of gasoline. The car was brought in for further repair but no further repair is available and because Honda claims this to be "a normal characteristic" of the car, no oil change was done either. However, the Honda 2018 CR-V manual clearly points out that over filling the oil may lead to leaks or engine damage. Copies of the repair receipt and Honda oil overfill warning are attached.

2018 Honda CRV ex: Mileage 20,165. Upon accelerating while pulling the car on main roadway, the car dropped from 50mph to 25mph and then wouldn't reach past 35mph, the engine light appeared and started to blink. Pushing the gas pedal only aggravated the situation. About a mile later the car stopped/stalled trying to go up a hill. I turned off car, waited 10 min and restarted. Was able to go another 1 mile to home, I did not attempt to go over 25 mph, because engine light was still blinking. The next morning, I drove the car to the dealer, but made sure I did not go over 30mph, as I did not want it to stall. During the drive the engine light was still blinking. Waiting to hear back.from the dealer. I believe this is a powertrain issue that has been documented by Honda and all 2017/2018 crvs have been recalled in china and europe, but not the us.

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!

While changing oil and filter at 30,000 miles 1) oil appeared highly diluted and watery 2) there was a strong gasoline smell coming from the used oil I took vehicle in for service and was told gas in oil is normal for these type engines but Honda had extended warranty for these engines. I asked about the software 'fix' I had read about being performed and dealer said they could not make the update to my car since it wasnot showing any diagnostic trouble codes at this point.

I was driving Saturday 27, 2019 about 9:00 am in the pulaski skyway in New Jersey then all of the sudden all the display warning lights went on and off until the car stall and the engine just stop working but the warning lights( every single one) just kept going on and off. I couldn't do anything as you may know the pulaski skyway has not place to pull over, you can imagine the traffic jam that my broke down car cause. The weekend of the 07/21/2019 I had a strong smell of gasoline in the cabin and when I check the oil dipstick it was overfill and had the strong smell of gasoline I called the dealer planet Honda and they told me to bring my car to check on 07/25/2019, the same day the dealer called me and said that is nothing wrong with the car and the smell of gasoline and the overfill engine oil was normal. I have no confidence on driving my Honda CRV anymore. I bought the car on 06/15/2019 with 5,300 miles on it.

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.

My 2018 Honda CR-V 1.5T engine is "making oil". I change my own oil and monitor the level weekly. The dealer told me that the oil dilution issue that I read about in consume reports would not affect me because I am in a warm climate (Florida) but that is not true. The oil level on my dip stick rose about 3/8 of an inch in 5000 miles. I changed the oil and we took a trip to Tennessee in the winter and the oil level rose so much in the cold weather I was concerned that it would cause too much pressure on the seals so I drained some oil out. I would think that gas in the oil would severely effect engine life. The dealer denies that I have a problem saying the this is a cold weather issue.
