Consumer Description

AFTER BUYING THIS NEW CAR I NOTICED TWICE GAS SMELL WHILE DRIVING I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL IT SMELLS GAS I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER HE SAID THE OIL HAS GAS IN IT AND ADVISED ME TO WATCH THE LEVEL AND THE SMELL, BRING IT BACK IF ENGINE LIGHT TURN ON OR SMELL STRONG SMELL OF GAS AGAIN. THE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE SINCE GAS LEAKS TO THE OIL THAT CAN CAUSE CAR TO INSTALL WHEN OIL LEVEL GETS TOO HIGH. ALSO GAS SMELL MAKES DRIVER AND PASSENGERS DIZZY AND INCREASES CHANCE OF ACCIDENT HONDA IS VERY LAZY TO ACT SINCE THIS IS 3RD GENERATION OF CRV EX WITH TURBO ENGINE. HONDA SAID THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN IN VERY COLD WEATHER AND WITH FREQUENT SHORT DRIVING I'M LIVING IN GEORGIA , NO EXTREME COLD AND I DRIVE MOSTLY ABOUT 15 MILES TRIPS THIS CAR IS DEFECTED AS MANY CRV CARS WITH TURBO ENGINE
