Consumer Description

NOTICE OF 2004 HONDA CR-V WITH OIL LEAKS CATCHING ON FIRE AFTER FIRST OIL CHANGE. WITH LETTER OF WARNING IN HAND FROM HONDA, I TOOK MY CR-V TO MY HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE. I ASKED TO SEE THE GASKET AND THE SERVICE TECH SHOWED IT TO ME. I DROVE THE CAR HOME AND WHEN I LEFT FOR WORK THE NEXT MORNING THERE WAS A LARGE (SIZE OF A SHEET OF PAPER) SPILL OF OIL ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN AUG 04 AND THE OIL CHANGE HAPPENED IN JAN 17, 05. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS OIL LEAKAGE BEFORE THE OIL CHANGE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A TYPICAL LEAK AFTER THE CHANGE AND TO BRING IT IN. THE CAR IS STILL LEAKING OIL ON JAN 19. MY APPOINTMENT TO FIX THE OIL LEAK IS AFTER 5PM ON JAN 19. *NM
