NHTSA Complaint #10837010 — 2010 HONDA CR-V

CR-V 2010 EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. MY HUSBAND DRIVES THE CAR TO WORK EVERY DAY FOR AN HOUR. WE START HEARING A CRANKING NOISE COMING FORM THE ENGINE IN THE COLD MORNINGS. WE FOLLOW RECOMMENDATIONS ON OIL CHANGES AND USE SYNTHETIC OIL. I CHECK THE OIL REGULARLY AND ADD SOME WHEN IT NEEDS IT. I WAS AMAZE AT HOW MUCH OIL IT BURN. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH EXCESSIVE OIL USE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON TWO (2) DEALERSHIPS RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE TIMING BELT TIMING CHAIN TENSION AND CAM SHAFT. 62,000 MILES CAR WAS DRIVING VERY BAD SO I DID THE REPAIRS $ 1,212.40 . THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME THAT'S "NORMAL". I HAVE A MINI VAN TOYOTA WITH 273,000 MILES NEVER CHANCE THE TIMING BELT/CHAIN STILL RUNNING. HONDA OF AMERICA SAYING THAT BURNING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES IS NORMAL. THAT IS UNETHICAL. I HAVE DONE THE 1,000 MILE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT MY CRV CAN BURN UP TO A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES AND IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN HELP ME. NOW THE CAR START SMELLING OIL AND GAS WHEN I CHECK THE OIL LEVEL. THEY SEND A LETTER BUT HONDA IS NOT WILLING TO DO THE REPAIRS.
