The oil dipstick is showing the oil level to be substantially higher than the max oil level. I took it to the Honda dealer 1/2/19. They showed me a service bulletin indicating that gas could be mixing with the oil, but Honda considered that a normal operating condition for that model. They offered no solution to the problem, but did change the oil at my request. I consider gas mixing with the crankcase oil a serious problem. Action should be taken to remedy this problem.

Gasoline enters engine oil causing it overfills and far exceeding the max mark. Engine oil also has a strong smell of gasoline. It may cause long term damage to the engine with engine oil diluted.

Upon seeing all of the complaints about the 1.5 liter turbo engine in the CR-V's and civics, I inspected the oil in my 2017 Honda CR-V only 100 miles after it was changed by the local Honda dealer. I pulled out the dipstick and noticed that the oil level was over the recommended limit and it was very dark in color. I leaned into the engine and noticed a strong presence of a gasoline smell. I have also noticed the presence of this smell before inside of the cabin but I thought it could be from something else. I am convinced it's coming from the engine. Honda needs to do something about this.

- Countryside, IL, USA

My car has a strong smell of gas on the dip stick and it is over the full mark. I have already taken my CR-V to the dealership I purchased my car at. They recognize the gas smell and over full mark. The service department changed the oil December 12th. 2018 today is December 24th 2018. I checked the oil when the car was cold and on a flat surface and the dip stick shows overfill and has a strong smell of gas.

My 2017 Honda CRV has fuel in the oil, confirmed by dealership. The last time I had it to dealership they confirmed it had 2 quarts of fuel in the crankcase oil. This is a hazard because the engine could overheat and lock up as I drive, which could lead to an accident. This also lowers the value of my car. The dealership can't fix it! I have driven the car approximately 800 miles since last oil change. It is currently a quart high on dipstick and oil smells of fuel.

- Sistersville, WV, USA

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

- Annapolis, MD, USA

Engine oil level above fill mark and has strong smell of gas. Typically driving. Cabin temp is below what I am accustomed and engine will not warm-up quickly in cold weather. Consumer reports has a report that seems to match my concerns. Supposedly Honda has a fix, but dealer said no for my VIN.

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

Ist oil/filter change by dealer at 4K miles all appeared to be normal. 2nd oil/filter change by dealer at 8K miles oil level was excessively high over dipstick max fill mark by 1/2 inch and oil dipstick had intense gasoline smell and oil viscosity was extremely low. Dealer says Honda is investigating an 'oil dilution' issue with this engine type.

Current miles = 4K. 1= battery went dead several times, was told update was done because issue w/parking brake circuitry. 2= various driver assist warning lights come on intermittently on dash.-issue not identified nor fixed. (ongoing) 3= recently pulled over by police nighttime-no tail lights, though front lights worked- driver of car was not familiar w/car- police fiddled w/ lightswitch got them working told driver to take it to dealer-no ticket issued. 4= noticeable lack of acceleration, fuel odor about vehicle, also sulphur smell after driving, heat does not warm cabin, nor defrost.defog windshield properly, oil black and overfull. Oil changed, issues reoccur within a few driving miles (50-100). One dealer blames the other, Honda says they didn't know of issues, dealer finally confirmed gas in oil. Again-there is only 4K miles on this 'vehicle'. all these issues relate to safety, either to anyone inside the vehicle or others on the road. I have no confidence in driving this (paying more attention to cluster, driving subtleties etc than traffic), and am very upset in paying the payment each month while hearing the 2 dealers blame each other, and while Honda shrugs their shoulders. I am taking it, once again, to the dealer this Saturday for an 'update' to the software-per Honda case mgr naomi xt 87075. Documentation can be provided on request-- I am out of time and patience. There are many more people with these documented issues on this vehicle than are being reported here- (see google and social media). I dread having to drive it Saturday nine miles to the dealer. This is the top selling car in its class-- there is a major problem being driven daily on the highways of the usa. My issues began April 2017 (purchases 3/30/2017) and have been ongoing through Dec 2018. Please help!!

I smell gasoline in the cabin while driving. I'm really concerned because I have my 2 year-old son in the car with me most of the time. That's going to cause some health issues. The oil level shown on the dip stick is always high and has heavily gas smell when dip stick is pulled out of engine.

- Anaheim, CA, USA

My 2017 CR-V ex-L has the oil dilution issue. Currently reading 1.5 inches higher than the max fill line on the dipstick. Vehicle smells so bad...like sulfur smell or gas. It is an overpowering smell and makes me nauseous. This can occur after idling for a few minutes, or after driving on a highway for 30 minutes. It is not just a short driving distance issue. Honda has known about this issue for years, and yet continues to sell the vehicle. They have not come up with a fix that works. Taking it in to the dealer tomorrow. After driving this for 2 years with this issue, I can only imagine the amount of damage on my engine. This is a safety issue. Fumes that fill the inside of the vehicle are not healthy or safe. At some point, the oil issue could be a fire hazard or the engine could fail at any moment. Why is Honda not being forced to fix this with a recall and/or buy back these vehicles?

- Bryan, OH, USA
