Description of the problem | 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 was normal operation and honda is not considering this an issue. Everything i have read so far states that excess gas in the oil is an issue and very bad for the engine. I am concerned that most consumers who purchased a 2017 honda cr-v are not aware of this issue. |
