2017 Honda CR-V ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS LIT UP. HAD BEEN VERY COLD WEATHER FOR ABOUT THE WEEK PRIOR. ALSO, THE HEATER WOULDN'T GET WARM AND CAR TOOK FOREVER TO WARM UP.

OIL LEVELS IN CAR ARE ABOVE THE DIPSTICK AND SMELL LIKE PETROLEUM HAS LEAKED INTO THE OIL. THE FIX THAT HONDA INTRODUCED FOR THE OIL DILUTION ISSUE HAS CLEARLY NOT WORKED. INSIDE OF CAR HAS A PETROLEUM SMELL. MAKES ME LIGHTHEADED/DIZZY. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY - STOP THE CAR AND AIR IT OUT. THERE WAS NOT ACCIDENT, BUT THIS CONTINUE ISSUE CAN CAUSE A MAJOR PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING INCLUDING ACCIDENT, INJURY AND DEATH.

I OWNED MY 2017 HONDA CRV FOR 2 YEARS WITH ~43000 MILES ON IT. FEB 28TH 2020 I GOT THE EMISSION CONTROL ERROR OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ITS STEADY LIGHT NOT BLINKING, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I DID NOT HAVE IT SERVICE RECENTLY OR FILLED GAS. A CAR WITH 43K MILES HAS EMISSION ISSUES JUST SEEMS POOR DESIGN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CRV. THE CONTACT STATED FUEL PENETRATED THE ENGINE OIL. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE OIL LEVEL AND FOUND THAT THE DIP STICK ALSO HAD FUEL. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RUSS DARROW HONDA LOCATED AT 10851 W METRO AUTO MALL, MILWAUKEE, WI 53224, (414)-586-5400, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THAT ENGINE OIL WAS CONSISTENT AND ALSO THAT THE ENGINE OPERATED AS INTENDED WITH THE DESIGN OF THE FUEL INJECTORS. THE MECHANIC ALSO DID NOT FIND EXCESS OIL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING INSPECTED. THE MANUFACTURER EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE DUE TO POSSIBLE GAS/OIL DILUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,645. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

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.

I WENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE PLACE SAID THAT THE OIL SMELLED LIKE FUEL, WAS VERY THIN. IN CONSUMER REPORTS THERE WAS A BLURB ABOUT THE HONDA CR-VS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE EXPERIENCING THE MIXING OF GAS IN THE OIL BUT MAINLY IN THE COLDER, NORTHERN STATES. SO, WHEN THE OIL CHANGE PEOPLE SAID THE OIL SMELLED LIKE GAS, I THEN DROVE TO A HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT, BUT SAID THEY DIDN'T SEE GAS IN THE OIL, BUT I JUST HAD THE OIL CHANGED SO OF COURSE THERE WASN'T SIGNS OF IT. SO, BEFORE MY NEXT OIL CHANGE I WILL TAKE IT TO HONDA SO THEY CAN SEE IT.

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.

GAS SMELL IN CABIN CHEMICAL SMELL IN CABIN GAS IN OIL CONCERNED OF ENGINE BREAK DOWN

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.

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.

OIL MIXING IN THE ENGINE TO THE EXTENT THAT MAY VERY WELL INSTALL THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING IN THE HIGH WAY. HONDA CORP NEED TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED TO PREVENT IT HAPPEN

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.

FUEL IN OIL CAUSING HIGH OIL LEVEL AND LOWERING THE VISCOSITY OF THE OIL CAUSING PRE MATURE WEAR OF ENGINE COMPONENTS.

I USE THE VEHICLE FOR SHORT TRIPS. NOTICES GAS MILEAGE DRASTICALLY REDUCED TO 20 MPG. THIS STARTTED HAPENING SINCE DE 2018. POSSIBLY DUE TO VERY COLD WEAHTER. MOST OF CASES CAR IS USED TO DROP MY KID TO A SCHOOL THAT IS AROUND 2 TO 3 MILES. MILEASE SHOWS AS 20 MILES PER GALLON. TOUCH SCREEN DASHBOARD SOMETIMES GOES BLANK AND NON RESPONSIVE.

SINCE THE PURCHASE OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V, THERE HAS BEEN GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE OIL LEVEL INDICATOR OR DIP-STICK SHOWS THE OIL FAR ABOVE THE FULL MARK AND THERE IS AN OBVIOUS STRONG ODER OF GASOLINE. WHEN FIRST STARTING THE CAR, GASOLINE ODORS ARE VERY STRONG IN THE EXHAUST AND SOMETIMES WITHIN THE CAR INTERIOR. GASOLINE IS CONSIDERED A SOLVENT AND IT WILL REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE IF IT IS ALWAYS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY AND AN ENGINE FIRE. I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THREE TIMES ABOUT THE PROBLEM. AT MY LAST VISIT, HONDA FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM A PROVIDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE PROBLEM REMAINS UNCHANGED. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED WITH MY NEW CAR AND WANT SOME HELP GETTING IT FIXED OR HELP WITH RETURNING THE CAR BACK TO HONDA AND REIMBURSED FOR THE COST. THE PROBLEM OCCURS ALL THE TIME, IN COLD AND WARM WEATHER.

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.

FUEL IS MAKING IT'S WAY INTO THE OIL SYSTEM. EVERYTIME I CHECK THE OIL I CAN CLEARLY SMELL GASOLINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I KNOW THAT HONDA HAS RECALLED 350,000 CRVS IN CHINA FOR THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME 1.5 TURBO ENGINES HOWEVER, WHEN I TELL THE DEALERSHIP OR HONDA REPRESENTATIVES ABOUT IT THEY ACT AS IF IT IS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE PREMATURE WEAR ON THE ENGINE AND POTENTIALLY BECOME A SAFETY CONCERN IF THE ENGINE WERE TO STALL AT HIGH SPEEDS.

EMISSIONS ISSUE DETECTED, THEN EVENTUAL ERROR CODES DIAGNOSED AS P0172 AND P291F. REPLACED FUEL INJECTORS AND HIGH PRESSURE PIPE UNDER SERVICE BULLETINS 10=8-025, 18-027, AND 19-015. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED THROUGH A REDESIGN AND RECALL. FAILURE OF THIS COMPONENT COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE.

MY 2017 CRV HAS BEEN SMELLING OF GASOLINE. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL DIPSTICK, THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THIS ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTERWARD, I RECEIVED A RECALL/"UPDATE" NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE REPAIRS WERE MADE (SOFTWARE UPDATE, REPLACED AC UNIT, OIL CHANGE). ONE MONTH HAS PASSED, AND AGAIN, THE OIL LEVELS ARE HIGH AND THE CABIN SMELLS OF GASOLINE. THE OIL LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK IS, AGAIN, OVER THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND AMERICAN HONDA MOTORS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM AMERICA HONDA MOTORS. I AM TAKING PICTURES OF THE OIL LEVELS ON THE DIPSTICK, DOCUMENTING ALL CONTACTS MADE WITH BOTH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AMERICA HONDA MOTORS, AND RETAINING ALL PAPERWORK REGARDING REPAIRS TO MY CAR CONCERNING THIS ISSUE.

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.

I RECENTLY BOUGH A USED 2017 HONDA CR-V. IT HAD ONLY 29,000 MILES WITH A FRESH OIL CHANGE BEFORE PURCHASE. I HAVE PUT OVER 1,000 MILES ON IT SINCE PURCHASE. I RECENTLY WAS INFORMED OF OIL DILUTION PROBLEMS WITH THE 1.5L TURBO AND DECIDED TO CONFIRM IF MY VEHICLE WAS AFFECTED. I CHECKED THE OIL FROM THE ENGINE AFTER LETTING IT COOL AND MY OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL. ALSO, THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE OIL. THIS DEEPLY CONCERNS ME AS THE OIL LEVEL SHOULDN'T BE ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL AND THE INCREASED WEAR THAT CAN OCCUR FROM DILUTED OIL. HONDA HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL OR ADMIT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE. I WILL BE CONTACTING HONDA IN HOPES OF FULL RESOLUTION.

I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THE HONDA 1.5L OIL-FUEL PROBLEM FIRST NOTICED BACK IN LATE 2017. I DID NOT THINK MUCH ABOUT IT UNTIL I TALKED WITH TWO OTHER CO-WORKERS WHO ALSO HAVE 2017 HONDA CR-VS. FIRST, MY ENGINE PERFORMANCE SLOWLY DROPS AFTER EACH OIL CHANGE, THEN PICKS BACK UP AGAIN ONCE I HAVE GOTTEN AN OIL CHANGE. SECOND, THIS WAS MY FIRST WINTER WITH MY CR-V AND I NOTICED THAT IT HAS A VERY HARD TIME ACCELERATING DURING THE WINTER MONTHS EVEN AFTER LETTING THE ENGINE WARM UP FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. LASTLY, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SAYS THAT MY OIL LEVEL IS AT A CERTAIN %, FOR INSTANCE IT SAYS THAT I AM AT 20% RIGHT NOW, HOWEVER, WHEN I CHECK THE DIPSTICK, I SEE OIL WELL ABOVE THE "FULL" LINE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. I LIVE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA, AND NOTICED THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR VEHICLES IN MY STATE.

NOTICE VERY TOXIC GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE CABIN WHEN DRIVING CAR DURING COLDER WEATHER. ALSO, NOTICE GASOLINE SMELL IN GARAGE AFTER CAR IS PARKED. HAVE BEEN MONITORING THE OIL LEVEL FOR THE PAST TWO MONTHS. THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1" ABOVE THE HIGH LEVEL MARK IN DECEMBER 2018 AND TOOK CAR TO HONDA DEALER . THEY REPLACED THE OIL AND MADE A SOFTWARE UPDATE PER A HONDA BULLETIN. THEY NOTIFIED ME IN WRITING THAT THE PROBLEM IS UNDER REVIEW AND HONDA TECHLINE AND ENGINEERS ARE AWARE OF ISSUE BUT NO SERVICE BULLETINS,UPDATES OR REPAIRS ARE AVAILABLE AS OF THIS TIME( DEC. 14,2018) IT IS NOW JAN 28, 2019 AND THE TOXIC GAS SMELL IS MUCH MORE SEVERE. USA HONDA WAS CONTACTED TODAY AND CASE REGISTERED FOR MY VEHICLE. HONDA USA TOLD ME TO AGAIN CONTACT THE HONDA DEALER REGARDING THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND I'M WAITING TO HEAR BACK TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. HONDA AND NHTSA MAY NOT CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT IT CERTAINLY COULD BECOME A HEALTH ISSUE WHICH IS WHY I AM NOTIFYING NHTSA.

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.

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.
