Description of the problem | The car has a serious engine issue associated to the 1. 5 l turbo engine. The engine is unable to warm up up properly in cold weather states and therefore is unable to output an adequate amount of heat that is required to keep the cabin warm for the owner. The engine is also diluting gasoline into the oil reservoir leading to a gasoline smell when checking oil levels. This oil dilution is going to cause extensive wear within the oil reservoir since it's not supposed to be there under proper and normal conditions. There have been cold morning on which i have accelerated and felt the vehicle stall and i feel the oil/gas mixture is to blame for this dangerous and life threatening defect of this engine. I'm afraid to accelerate in traffic conditions that may cause me to get rear ended and injured/killed due to stalling the vehicle while in motion on a city street or highway. Honda will not acknowledge that this is a problem with their 2017 crv and newer since the manufacturer states it is normal operating conditions to have oil and gasoline mixing. I would like to have a buyback of this vehicle and be done with this brand for the failure to correct this and poor judgement to continue to selling this vehicle. |
