Description of the problem | Had the first oil changed at 5,658 miles in october, 2018. Mentioned the fuel in oil issue with 1. 5 liter turbo engines (per consumer reports) to service rep at annapolis honda. He claimed to have never heard of it. Checked my oil today (12/21/18, 7,600 miles), oil level is elevated approx. 1/2 inch above the fill line from october with strong gasoline smell in the oil. Honda claims to have a fix for this but will only roll it out in northern tier states in the us. Problem is much more widespread and needs to be implemented nationally. Potential for premature engine failure and fire if not fixed |
