2017 HONDA CR-V Engine Problems

OUR 2017 HONDA CRV EXL HAS A CLIMATE CONTROL ISSUE WHEN TEMPERATURES GET BELOW FREEZING AND THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE AS THE TEMPERATURE LOWERS. THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL NOT WARM UP AND OF COURSE THE CLIMATE CONTROL WILL NOT WARM UP THE VEHICLE CABIN. THE ONLY WAY WE CAN GET ANY HEAT INSIDE THE VEHICLE IS BY CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR BUT WHEN YOU DO THAT,THE WINDOWS FOG UP AND OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO USE A RAG TO KEEP FOG OFF WINDOWS. HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERES A PROBLEM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE MOST OF OUR DRIVING IS TOWN DRIVING AND WINDOWS FOGGING OVER IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WHEN CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR.

CHECKED OIL BEFORE HONDA SERVICE OVER FILLED ON DIPSTICK STRONG GAS ODER IN OIL AND CABIN

VEHICLE: 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING - 5 MILES WHEN PURCHASED ON 05/01/2017 - 2,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I AM AT ABOUT 6,000 MILES NOW. INITIALLY I NOTICED A CLICKING SOUND EMANATING FROM THE ENGINE GET LOUDER OVER TIME. ADDITIONALLY, IN THE WINTER, HEAT TOOK A LONG TIME TO COME ON. I WAS FOLLOWING A CRV FORUM (HONDACRVOWNERS.COM) AND NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE START MENTIONING FUEL IN THE OIL. THEN SAW NEWS ARTICLES ABOUT A HUGE CRV RECALL IN CHINA'S COLD CLIMATE AREAS WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I THEN BEGAN CHECKING THE OIL FREQUENTLY AND NOTICED A DEFINITE FUEL SMELL ON THE DIPSTICK AND RISING ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I HAVE NOT NOTICED A FUEL SMELL IN THE CABIN, FORTUNATELY, AS SOME HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT, BUT THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR AN ENGINE. TWO HONDA DEALERS HAVE TOLD ME THEY ARE AWARE OF THE...

FUEL-OIL SMELL IN CABIN AND OUTSIDE THE CAR WHEN IT IS PARKED IN-DOOR AFTER DRIVE. FUEL IN OIL. THE OIL LEVEL EXCEEDS MAXIMUM. GASOLINE SMELL IN THE OIL. THE CAR DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION. RISKS AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS: THE ODOR CAUSES IRRITATION OF RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. IT CAN CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS. ACCORDING TO HONDA : "OVERFILLING THE ENGINE OIL CAN RESULT IN LEAKS AND ENGINE DAMAGE." THE DILUTED BY GASOLINE OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE OIL IMPACTS ENGINE WORK AND THE AIR TURBINE WHICH IS LUBRICATED AND COOLED BY ENGINE OIL. I AM AFRAID OF THE CAR ENGINE MAY STOP ON A ROAD CAUSING A COLLISION.

I BOUGHT THIS HONDA CRV 2017 AWD ON 04/01/2017 FROM HONDA FOLSOM. ON APRIL 24,2018, IT WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO JUMPSTART IT AND BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALER IN FOLSOM. THEY CHANGED THE BATTERY ON APRIL 24, 2018. TODAY, MAY 30, 2018, IT DID NOT START AGAIN SO IT WAS JUMPSTARTED AGAIN AND BROUGHT THIS TO HONDA ROSEVILLE. THEY CHANGED AGAIN THE BATTERY. THEY SAID ALL THE ELECTRICAL ARE GOOD AND NO EXPLANATION GIVEN WHY THE BATTERY DON'T LAST. THESE 2 SITUATIONS, LUCKILY, HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE. WE DID NOT HAVE ANY SITUATION THAT COULD DISCHARGE THE BATTERY.

DURING THE FIRST OIL CHANGE WE REMOVED OVER 5 QUARTS OF LIQUID. THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES THAT THE CAR HOLDS ONLY 3.7 QUARTS OF OIL. WE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WE BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE 2017 HONDA CR-V. GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL. I AM NOW GETTING FREE OIL CHANGES, THEY STATED I SHOULD COME IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHENEVER THE LIQUID RISES ABOVE THE FILL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE MANAGED TO GET AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 7010 DAYS SINCE APRIL 12, 2018. THE LAST OIL CHANGE I HAD THERE WAS AT LEAST 1 QUART OF GAS IN THE OIL DRAINED OUT OF THE RESERVOIR. THAT WAS 10 DAYS AFTER THE LAST OIL CHANGE. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY TALKED TO MY CASE MANAGER SHE TOLD ME THAT IT...

THERE IS CERTAINLY AN EXCESS AMOUNT OF GAS MIXED IN ENGINE OIL. ONLY FEW WEEKS AFTER OIL CHANGE, THE OIL LEVEL IS ALREADY 20 MM ABOVE THE MAX LINE. IT'S CERTAINLY A DESIGN FLAW AND I THINK HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MISTAKE AND THE CUSTOMERS. IT'S HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND HOPE THE RELEVANT RESOURCES CAN TAKE ACTION TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.

I HEARD THAT THERE IS OIL LEVEL INCREASE PROBLEM ON THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR'S ENGINE BECAUSE OF FUEL LEAK, SO I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL A FEW HUNDRED MILES AFTER CHANGING THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE MAXIMUM MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER PREVIOUSLY, COMPLAINING OF A SMELL OF GAS IN THE OIL WHEN I CHECKED IT INITIALLY, AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE, THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. BOTH TIMES OF CHECKING THE OIL, THE CAR WAS IN MY GARAGE, STATIONARY, ON LEVEL GROUND.

I HAVE HAD THE BRAKES ENGAGE TWICE THROUGH THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME.DANGEROUS AS I COULD BE REAR ENDED.AND THE OIL LEVEL RISES WITH FUEL DILUTION AND GAS FUMES ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT.VEHICLE MISFIRED AND SHUTDOWN ON HIGHWAY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND BREATHING GAS FUMES.

OIL/DILUTION ON DIP STICK. GAS SMELL ON DIP STICK. OVERFILLED DIP STICK.

I BOUGHT THIS 2017 CRV EXL-NAV AWD IN 05/2017. WE DID THE FIRST MAINTENANCE ON MARCH 17 TO CHANCE OIL AT 8000 MILES. THERE IS OIL LEAKAGE, I WILL TALK THIS ON ANOTHER COMPLAINT. I HEARD THAT THERE IS OIL EXCESSIVE PROBLEM ON THIS 1.5T ENGINE, SO I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL AT ABOUT 8800 MILES AND FOUND THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS MORE THAN 10MM HIGHER THAN THE MAXIMUM MARK ON THE LIPSTICK. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE. I AM VERY UPSET WITH THEIR ANSWER. I HAVE ATTACHED THE PHOTO, THE OIL LEVEL IS EXCEEDING THE ORANGE PLASTIC TO THE METAL PART. ACTUALLY CRV HAS BEEN STOPPED FOR SALE IN CHINA FOR 2 MONTHS UNTIL HONDA INITIATE A RECALL AND EXTEND THE WARRANTY TO 6 YEARS. RELIABILITY IS THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT HONDA, NOW I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. WILL NOT...

BOUGHT THIS 2017 CRV EXL-NAV AWD IN 05/2017. WE DID THE FIRST MAINTENANCE ON MARCH 17 TO CHANCE OIL IN THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND THERE IS OIL LEAKAGE. THEY SCHEDULED A ANOTHER DAY TO FIX IT BY ADDING SOME SILICA GLUE UNDER WARRANTY. I CAN NOT BELIEVE A NEW CAR WITHIN 1 YEAR AND 8000 MILES HAS OIL LEAKING ISSUE. RELIABILITY IS THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT HONDA, NOW I AM SO DISAPPOINTED.

2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO OIL DILUTION AND GAS FUME PROBLEM. *LD *JS

SOMETIMES SMELL OF GAS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED AND SMELLS LIKE GAS

MY NEW 2017 HONDA CRV EX THAT ONLY HAS 6850 MILES DRIVEN ON IT HAS A TERRIBLE DEFECT WITH OIL DILUTION ISSUES DUE TO FUEL LEAKING INTO THE OIL PANS CAUSING OVERFLOW AND DILUTION TO THE OIL THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE LUBRICATING THE ENGINE. THE OIL SMELLS VERY POTENT OF FUEL AND ALMOST 1 QUART OF EXTRA FLUID WAS DRAINED FROM THE OIL PAN WHEN TAKEN INTO THE DEALER AFTER REPORTING THE ISSUE. THE DEALER AGREED THAT THERE WAS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH FUEL DILUTING INTO THE OIL BUT WERE TOLD BY THE HONDA CORPORATE TECH LINE THAT THEY WERE TO JUST REPLACE THE OIL UNTIL A FIX COMES OUT. THE DEALER TECHNICIANS ASKED ABOUT CHANGING THE FUEL INJECTORS OR MAYBE A CYLINDER HEAD REPLACEMENT BUT WERE TOLD NOT TO DO ANYTHING. IT IS NOT SAFE TO RELEASE THESE CARS BACK TO THE OWNER KNOWING THERE IS AN DEFECT...

2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. *LD THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED THAT GASOLINE WAS MIXING WITH ENGINE OIL. *JS

I HAVE FUEL IN MY OIL AND THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS OTHER REPORTS OF THE SAME. THERE IS ALSO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT INVOLVING THE 2017-2018 HONDA CR-V AND CIVIC VEHICLES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING FUEL CONTAMINATION OF THE ENGINE OIL THAT COULD RESULT THE FAILURE OF ENGINE BEARING AND OTHER INTERNAL COMPONENTS. THIS MAY RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE OR STALLING WHILE DRIVING. JAPAN'S HONDA TO RECALL 350,000 OVER THIS ENGINE ISSUE. MIGLIACCIO & RATHOD LLP IS INVESTIGATING POTENTIAL CLAIMS OF FUEL DILUTION AND BUILDUP IN THE ENGINE OIL OF 2017-2018 HONDA CR-V AND CIVIC VEHICLES WITH THE 1.5L TURBO ENGINE. UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, UN-COMBUSTED GASOLINE ACCUMULATES IN THE LUBRICANT OIL PAN AND EVAPORATES UNDER HEAT FROM THE ENGINE, THAT THEN ENDS UP BACK IN THE ENGINE COMBUSTION CHAMBER AS FUEL. IN COLD TEMPERATURES, HOWEVER, THE ENGINE MAY NOT WARM UP ENOUGH TO EVAPORATE THE UN-COMBUSTED GASOLINE. HONDA OWNERS ARE...

THE VEHICLES OIL GAS A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL AND THE CRANKCASE APPEARS TO BE OVER FILLED . GASOLINE HAS MIGRATED TO THE ENGINE CRANKCASE. ORIGINAL OIL IN VEHICLE AT 5845 MILES. THE ODOR IS UNDER THE HOOD AND VERY STRONG AT OIL FILLER CAP AND ON THE OIL IN THE CRANKCASE.

OIL DILUTION,UNBURNT FUEL IS GETTING BUY THE PISTON RINGS AND IS GETTING INTO THE OIL SUMP,WHICH IS HAVING A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON THE LUBRICATING PROPERTIES OF MOTOR OIL.I HAD MY FIRST OIL CHANGED AT MY HONDA DEALER 5,271 MILES ON ODOMETER ON 10/25/2017 AFTER DRIVING 2,554 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE I NOTICED AFTER CHECKING OIL LEVEL ON DIPSTICK THAT IT WAS OVER FULL. I AGAIN HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE SAME DEALER ON 03/19/2018 5QTS OF OIL REMOVED ,WHEN THE CAPACITY IS 3.7 QTS WITH OIL PLUS FILTER CHANGE.I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN LESS THAN MONTH LATER WITH UNBURNT FUEL GETTING INTO MOTOR OIL AND DILUTING MOTOR OIL ,WELL ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON DIPSTICK 04/18/2018

DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEED. SUDDENLY VEHICLE BEGINS TO VIOLENTLY HESITATE AND THEN SLOWS AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE (MORE THAN 10 MPH). INDICATORS READ THAT ALL SYSTEMS HAVE FAILED. PULLED OVER AND SHUT VEHICLE DOWN. WOULD NOT RESTART. CALLED EMERGENCY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FOR TOWING TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT HONDA STATED IT IS A COMMON ISSUE IN COLD WEATHER (I LIVE AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN NORTHERN WI - LAME EXCUSE. WHEY SELL THEM HERE IF THEY DON'T WORK IN THE COLD). THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FUEL INJECTORS AND VARIOUS OTHER ENGINE PARTS. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE SATELLITE RADIO RECEIVER REPLACED (IT BURNT OUT). THERE WAS FUEL IN THE ENGINE OIL. ALL THIS WITH LESS THAN 4,000 MILES ON THE 2017 HONDA CR-V. NO LONGER HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE VEHICLE. IT RUNS NOW, BUT THE ENGINE IS MUCH LOUDER WITH A NOTICABLE CLICKING NOISE THAT WASN'T THERE WHEN...

OIL IS BEING DILUTED WITH GASOLINE.

VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW IN 8/17 AND HAS 8900 MILES. TOURING TRIM WITH 1.5L TURBO ENGINE AND AWD. OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED WELL ABOVE FULL MARK AFTER BOTH OF TWO OIL CHANGES DONE SINCE PURCHASED AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF FUEL. LAST OIL CHANGE WAS DONE JUST 375 MILES BACK. DEALER DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS AND NHTSA COMPLAINTS ON RECORD. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO INADEQUATE LUBRICATION / POSSIBLE COLLISION DUE TO ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOWUP WITH DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND DOCUMENT ACTIONS TAKEN IN ORDER TO SUPPORT ANY FUTURE LEGAL ACTION TO REMEDY THIS SERIOUS DEFECT.

THE NEW GENERATION OF CRV VEHICLES HAVE A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM REGARDING OIL DILUTION WITH FUEL AND OTHER LIQUIDS. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND CAN RESULT IN PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AS WELL AS OTHER PROBLEMS. WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE OUR OIL EVERY 500 MILES JUST TO MAKE SURE IT ISN'T TOO HIGH. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, YET THEY ARE SLACKING ON FINDING A FIX. THIS PROBLEM MAY POTENTIALLY BE AFFECTING HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES. CHINA ALREADY HALTED SALES OF CRVS UNTIL THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM. DEAR HONDA, FIX THIS PROBLEM! THE LONGER YOU SLACK, THE MORE CUSTOMERS (LIKE ME) YOU WILL LOSE IN THE FUTURE. IF YOU VALUE YOUR REPUTATION AS A RELIABLE CAR MAKER, THEN DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE AND GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED.

ENGINE OIL IS OVERFILLING AND BEING DILUTED WITH GAS. STRONG GAS SMELL. WHEN CHANGING OIL, MORE THAN WHAT WAS NEEDED TO FILL ENGINE OIL TO FULL

THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE'S ALL EXPERIENCE A COOLANT HEATING UP UNDER 32DEGREES F PROBLEM. AT IDLE THE TEMPERATURE COOLS DOWN AND HEATER DOES NOT SUPPLY WARM AIR. ALSO THE ENGINE OIL IS BEING DILUTED BY AN OVERLY RICH MIXTURE CAUSING UNBURNED GAS TO ENTER THE CRANKCASE DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL AND CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE. DEALER HAS NO CLUE WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO WHY SO I HAVE TO CHANGE OIL EVE3RY 1000 MILES TO PROTECT THE ENGINE

WE PURCHASED OUR HONDA CRV EX-L IN OCTOBER OF 2017, WITHIN 5 MONTHS WE NOTICED A STRONG GASOLINE SMALL IN OUR CABIN. ONE DAY I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL BY PULLING THE DIPSTICK AND NOTICED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1 FULL INCH ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE OIL ON THE DIPSTICK REEKED OF GAS AND WAS VERY DARK AND WATERY. I IMMEDIATELY DID A GOOGLE SEARCH OF THIS ISSUE, KNOWING THAT OUR LAST OIL CHANGE WAS LESS THAN 3,000 MILES AGO FROM OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND I WAS SHOCKED WITH THE RESULTS. THOUSANDS OF OWNERS WITH THE 2017-2018 CRV WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE ARE HAVING THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS CALLED OIL DILUTION AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL BUT THE REASONS ARE UNKNOWN. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND HAD MY CAR IN...

MY 2017 HONDA CR-V IT'S A NEW BROCHE WITH ONLY 3,800 MILES AND I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE OIL LEVEL RAISING DRASTICALLY, SO BAD THAT I HAD TO DO AN OIL CHANCE AT ONLY 3,000 MILES WHEN THE FIRST SERVICE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE AT 5,000 MILES. IT'S BEEN 800 MILES SINCE THE OIL CHANGE AND THE OIL LEVEL IS WELL ABOVE THE SECOND MARK ON THE DIPSTICK WITH A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR, YES, FOR THE LITTLE EXPERIENCE I HAVE WITH VEHICLES I'M MORE THAN SURE THIS ENGINE IS MIXING UP GASOLINE WITH THE OIL, REASON WHY THE OIL LEVEL GOES UP AND LOOKS THINNER THAN NORMAL ALMOST LIKE WATER. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THE OIL DELUDE DRASTICALLY THE ENGINE EVENTUALLY WILL FAIL FOR LACK OF LUBRICATION, AND THE WHOLE POWERTRAIN WILL BE DAMAGE! HONDA NEEDS TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUES ASAP OR RISK MANY CARS...

MY CAR IS A 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBOCHARGED ENGINE AND 3200 MILES. ON 3/18/2018 I WAS DRIVING AT 70MPH ON INTERSTATE 180 IN PENNSYLVANIA WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED, LOST POWER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS REPORTED MALFUNCTIONS IN THE DASH DISPLAY. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALER AND DIAGNOSED WITH EXCESS GAS (APPROXIMATELY ONE QUART) IN THE OIL. THE OIL AND FILTER WAS CHANGED AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION, AND A TECH LINE CASE (REF # 4089104) WAS OPENED WITH HONDA. I WAS TOLD AT THIS TIME THERE IS NO PERMANENT RECALL OR FIX. I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN COLD CLIMATES WHERE THE CAR IS USED FOR SHORT DRIVES AND DOES NOT WARM UP COMPLETELY. SINCE THEN I HAVE LEARNED THAT ALL CRVS WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBOCHARGED ENGINE HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN...

GAS IS LEAKING INTO CRANKCASE AND DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL THEREFORE RAISING THE OIL LEVEL ABOVE THE MAX FILL LINE. ENGINE OIL HAS GAS ODOR AND OIL SEEMS THINNER DUE TO DILUTION WITH GASOLINE.

THE OIL LEVEL IN THE CRANK CASE CONTINUALLY RISES AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. WITHIN 5000 MILES, AND 40% OIL LIFE ACCORDING TO THE MAINTENANCE MINDER, IT HAD RISEN WELL ABOVE THE MAX LINE ON THE DIP STICK.

I CHECKED THE LEVEL OF THE OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AND THE LEVEL SHOWS AS BEING HIGH, PAST THE 'FULL" REFERENCE POINT WITH A FEW MILLIMETERS. ALSO, THE OIL HAS A STRONG GAS ODOR. THE MILEAGE ON THE ENGINE IS 8454, AND THE FIRST OIL CHANGE WAS PERFORMED AT 6547 MILES, 2 MONTHS AGO.

I PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CRV-EX WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE IN NOVEMBER 2017 AND PLAN TO GIVE THIS CAR TO MY NIECE AS A GRADUATION PRESENT IN 2019. I TOOK IT FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE, AT 137 MILES, AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS GASOLINE IN THE OIL. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND DISCOVERED THAT MANY PEOPLE (2017 HONDA CRV OWNERS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE) IN THE USA HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE DETAILS ARE LISTED IN THE HONDA FORUMS AND ON EDMUNDS. I ALSO SAW THAT HONDA WAS RECALLING 350K 2017-2018 CRVS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE , IN CHINA, AS THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. IT APPEARS THAT THE FUEL EJECTORS WERE SUPPLYING TOO MUCH GASOLINE AND THE RESIDUAL GASOLINE WAS LEAKING AROUND THE CYLINDERS INTO THE OIL. I REQUESTED HONDA-USA TO GET ACCESS TO THIS SOFTWARE UPDATE VIA...

I PURCHASED A 2017 CRV FROM ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA IN ASHLAND, WI IN AUGUST 2017. ON FEBRUARY 23, 2018, MY CAR WHICH HAS 5500 MILES ON IT, STARTED MAKING A HORRIBLE NOISE AND BEGAN LOSING POWER WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE NOISE CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND. WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA TO SERVICE THE CALL. HONDA CORPORATE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER (JERRY) AT ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA DETERMINED THROUGH VIDEO CHATS AND CONFERENCE CALLS THAT THE CAMS WERE DESTROYED IN MY ENGINE. THEY BELIEVE THIS HAD TO DO WITH FUEL AND OIL MIXING AND GETTING INTO THE ENGINE. HONDA REQUESTED THAT ASHLAND HONDA REPLACE THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE. THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL AND OIL MIXING AND DESTROYING THE ENGINE. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS INVOLVED DUE TO EMISSIONS, THIS ISSUE WILL BE CONTINUING, AND AT...

THE VEHICLE DOES NOT HEAT UP WHEN IDLING WHICH MEAN REMOTE START TO CLEAR THE ICE FROM THE WINDSHIELD AND WARM THE CABIN DOES NOT WORK. HONDA TOLD ME IT HAS TO BE DRIVEN TO PRODUCE HEAT. THEY'VE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT AND FLUSHED THE COOLING SYSTEM. I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK DOWN A DECLINE FOR 8 MILES. AFTER 4 MILES THE ENGINE GAUGE BEGINS TO RISE AND THEN BY THE TIME I REACH 8 MILES (BOTTOM OF THE HILL) THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE BOTTOMS OUT BACK DOWN TO THE COLD. THE HEAT THAT MAY HAVE STARTED HOW EVER FEEBLE IS NOW ONCE AGAIN COLD. ANY ICE ON THE WINDOWS IS STILL THERE BECAUSE THE WHOLE CAR INSIDE IS STILL COLD. IF IT WASN'T FOR THE HEATED SEATS I'D FREEZE TO DEATH. THE SERVICE MANAGER CAME TO TAKE MY CAR ONE MORNING AND SAW THIS HAPPEN. HE WAS TOLD BY...

JANUARY 6TH, 2018 CAR SMELLED OF EGGS AND GAS. DROVE CAR 70 MILES THE EMMISIONS AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WAS TOWED FROM A BUSY HWY 61 MN TO HONDA SERVICE CENTER. THEY HAD CRV FOR 3 WEEKS. CHANGED OIL & PROGRAMMED INJECTORS THE OIL HAD 1QUART OVER OF GAS MIXED INTO THE OIL. 700 MILES LATER AND CAR NOW HAS GAS MIXED INTO OIL AGAIN AND OVER THE ORANGE DIPSTICK AND SMELLS OF VERY STRONG GAS. A SERVICE APPOINTMENT MADE FOR MARCH 14TH, 2018 FOR OIL CHANGE, RATTLE IN THE DASH BEHIND HEAD UNIT AND THE HEAT PROBLEM AS WELL. THE NO HEAT FOR WINTER DRIVING WITH FROZEN WINDSHIELD BEFORE DRIVING AND WHILE DRIVING IS VERY DANGEROUS! BREAKING DOWN ON A INTERSTATE HWY IS ALSO DANGORUS WAITING 4 HOURS WITH NO HEAT IN CAR AT -1 TEMP WAITING FOR TOW IS DANGORUS. NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS AT...

I WAS BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, I STOPPED THE VEHICLE, MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THEN SHIFTED TO DRIVE AND SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED MOVING FORWARD DESPITE MY HEAVY PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES I COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE AND I WOUND UP CRASHING INTO MY CAR INTO MY NEIGHBORS HOUSE, WITH EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE HOUSE AND MY CAR. I SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES

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. THIS TRIGGERS ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS AND REQUIRES FREQUENT OIL CHANGES. ENGINE PERFORMANCE AND DRIVABILITY SUFFER. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO BEING REPORTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA BY OTHER HONDA CR-V OWNERS WHO DRIVE IN COLDER CLIMATES. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT IT IS CAUSING LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE OF OUR NEW VEHICLE. I CAUTION PROSPECTIVE BUYERS TO POSTPONE THE PURCHASE OF A 2017 OR NEWER HONDA CR-V WITH THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE UNTIL HONDA SOLVES TO THIS PROBLEM. THE FIFTH GENERATION CR-V IS AN EXCELLENT CAR IN MANY RESPECTS, BUT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THE CAR, PARTICULARLY TO THOSE WHO DRIVE IN COLDER CLIMATES, UNTIL A FIX IS FOUND. REUTERS REPORTED IN FEBRUARY THAT...
