Consumer Description
HI. I HAVE A 2011 HONDA CRV. VIN # [XXX]. IT HAS A LITTLE OVER 98,500 MILES ON IT. I BOUGHT IT FROM SCHLOSSMANN HONDA CITY 3450 S 108TH ST, MILWAUKEE, WI 53227. IT WAS A LEASED VEHICLE BEFORE I PURCHASED IT. I HAVE NOTICED SINCE OWNING IT THAT IT CONSUMES OIL. I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME RESEARCHING ON THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT HONDA MOTORS HAVE BEEN REPORTED WITH THIS SUCH PROBLEM. MY QUESTION TO HONDA; 1.HOW LONG IS THIS WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE FOR MOTOR AND DRIVETRAIN? 2.HOW DO I PROVE THAT IT CONSUMES OIL, SINCE I HAVE NO PRIOR RECORDS OF SERVICE FROM THE PAST? I DO ALL MY OWN WORK ON VEHICLES, IE; OIL CHANGES, AIR FILTER CHANGES, BRAKES & ROTORS REPLACEMENT, SPARK PLUGS, AND EVEN ADDING AIR TO THE TIRES AND PUMPING GAS. YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A CERTIFIED MECHANIC TO DO ANY OF THIS WORK. I'M NOT SAYING THAT EVERYONE IS CAPABLE OF DOING THIS KIND OF WORK, BUT I FEEL I AM. I HAVE ALWAYS WORKED MY OWN VEHICLES SINCE I WAS 16 YEARS OLD. I HAVE 42 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH MAINTENANCE OF VEHICLES. I HAVE PROOF THAT IT CONSUMES OIL, AS I HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTING IT MYSELF. IT IS (1) QUART OF OIL DOWN IN 500 MILES SINCE I JUST CHANGED IT. I USUALLY HAVE TO ADD (3) QUARTS BEFORE MY OIL CHANGE IS EVEN AT 50% LIFE LEFT ON THE OIL LIFE MAINTENANCE DISPLAY ON THE DASH. I END UP CHANGING THE OIL EARLY, (BEFORE 3000 MILES OR 0% OIL LIFE) OF RECOMMENDED SCHEDULE OIL CHANGE. I USE QUALITY VALVOLINE OR MOBIL 1 OIL, SAE 0 ? 20W FULL SYNTHETIC OIL. I ALSO USE FRAN OIL FILTERS PH7317. I DON'T USE CHEAP OIL, OIL FILTERS, AIR FILTERS OR INFERIOR PRODUCTS IN MY VEHICLES. THE SAME GOES FOR MY HARLEY DAVIDSON. I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE ON THIS MATTER. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
