Description of the problem | I recently bough a used 2017 honda cr-v. It had only 29,000 miles with a fresh oil change before purchase. I have put over 1,000 miles on it since purchase. I recently was informed of oil dilution problems with the 1. 5l turbo and decided to confirm if my vehicle was affected. I checked the oil from the engine after letting it cool and my oil level was above the max level. Also, there is a strong smell of gasoline coming from the oil. This deeply concerns me as the oil level shouldn't be above the max level and the increased wear that can occur from diluted oil. Honda has yet to issue a recall or admit this is a widespread issue. I will be contacting honda in hopes of full resolution. |
