Page 11 of 14: complaints 281 to 310 of 379, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I smell gasoline and checked the oil on several occasion. The gas fumes came from the oil check, gas in oil. I brought to covington la honda dealer today 11-29-2018 and the advised me that it is working as designed, and no problem was found at this time. I am concerned for safety reasons, fire and car stalling, as well as the fact that there is a recall on this but not in my area.
There's a gasoline odor inside the cars cabin and under the hood, no gas leaks are visible. The car hesitates during full throttle making it difficult to get out of someones way or enter the highway safely. .
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 honda cr-v. The contact stated that the fuel was contaminating the engine oil. A test of the vehicle oil was sent to blackstone laboratory and it was determined that 2.3 percent of fuel was mixing with the oil. The vehicle was taken to jeff fyler honda of florence (located at 949 burlington pike, florence, ky 41042, (859) 283-2727), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: 09075248. The contact was referred to the federal safety agency. The approximate failure mileage was 17,500.
Engine oil was 1 quart overfull. Oil smells like gasoline. Engine oil visibly thinner than normal. Reportedly, this problem is systemic with cr-v's as ours with the turbo 4 cylinder. The gasoline should be evaporating due to engine temp; but, it's not -- as a result the gasoline dilutes the engine oil and causes the oil level to rise.

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.
Excessive oil in sump. Root cause is fuel mixed with oil.
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.
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
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
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.
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 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.
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.
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 that our oil smelled of gas; we do not know the long term affects on the engine or any hazards the condition poses. *js
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.
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 the federal safety agency need to make sure honda is held totally responsible.
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.
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.
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
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 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.
2017 honda crv with 1.5 l turbo 4 cylinder engine. Health hazard: noted gasoline fumes in cabin after starting the car. The fumes are coming in through the ventilation system. Happening in both cold and hot weather. Car has 30k miles on it. Fumes noticed when car is stationary after starting it. Also found to have gas entering oil pan, diluting the oil, and causing high oil levels. Similar reports from many other owners of this vehicle with this engine and apparently a major recall in china for the problem. Am concerned about hydrocarbon levels in the passenger cabin which can be a major health hazard. Just because the fumes dissipate after a minute or so does not necessarily mean that the hydrocarbon levels in the cabin are normal for the rest of the ride. Other major concern is premature wear on the engine due to gas mixing with oil. Another concern is reports of crvs with this problem stalling at high speeds and failing to accelerate properly. Honda USA has not addressed the problem as of this date nor have they offered any solutions. I feel like I wasted over $30k on a vehicle that is now unsafe and destined to premature engine failure. I think there needs to be a recall to fix this problem.
Oil crank case is too high due to excess fuel in oil. This causes fuel smell in cabin and stalling of the engine. But more importantly, the engine will suffer from premature engine wear and failure due to lack of lubrication. This is not a cold weather issue as my dilution need happened in the summer and I only do highway driving with long duration. Honda refuses to fix the problem.
