Description of the problem	The cv transmission on my 2018 hr-v exhibits an oscillatory increasing and decreasing speed behavior at around 2500 engine rpm when under minimal load, i. E.; going up a small hill. This is prominent on the highway when going up a very slight grade under steady state throttle, but also noticeable at low speed, like 15 mph, when going up a little bit steeper hill, like my driveway. I had complained repeatedly to honda dealers and the factory about this, but the techs were just driving the vehicle around the neighborhood and didn't notice the issue because they weren't in the regime where it happens. This will cause excessive wear in the transmission components due to the sliding of the connecting chain across the variable diameter drums it rides on, eventually leading to premature transmission failure which can easily be a major safety issue from multiple considerations. The case number that american honda generated for this transmission "hunting" issue was 09398275 reported to honda on 3/5/19 (i used that date below because the condition has been constant with no specific failure point)
