Description of the problem | The vehicle has a known issue by honda with unsafe levels of oil dilution in the 1. 5 cvt turbo engine. Gas is mixing in with the oil, causing oil levels to rise. The fumes of gasoline are entering into the cabin space and making it unsafe to breathe. The engine is also having stalling issues due to gas mixing in with the oil in the engine area. This also has an issue with the ability to keep the car warm and providing adequate heat into the cabin area. The components of this engine are unsafe for cold weather climates such as the northeast. The car can not warm up the engine sufficiently at idle and therefore will not blow any hot air into the cabin area. The manufacturer states the car needs to be operating at highway speeds for approximately 10 minutes to gain sufficient engine warmth. This is not acceptable, as many owners of this vehicle have families and children, and we make short trips back and forth. For the car to be cold and blow cold air and not be able to warm up is a failure by the manufacturer to provide a safe vehicle. Honda case number 06673515 |
