Description of the problem | Cr-v cabin intermittently fills with gasoline fumes, stong gasoline ordor causes extreme respiratory distress, including burning, coughing, and choking. Honda said they are aware of the issue and there is no fix at this time. I am afraid to drive the car and they offer no solution. It happens upon starting, idling, driving, it circulates through the cabin, closing the vents helps slightly, strong gasoline smell also very prominent coming from under the hood at times. You can also smell it outside the vehicle. It is so strong it forces you to open the windows to breath, and pull over and open the doors. I have had the vehicle in for service to fix the problem and contacted another honda service department the dealerships and honda america are aware of the issue but have no fix. I was told to call honda america, i did and i was told they are aware of the issue and have offered no solution. The car is new 3900 miles and at first was told to drive it to burn off the smell, part of being a new car, but it is getting worse. |
