CarComplaints.com Notes: It's rare when a newer vehicle has defect trends, & the 2017 Honda CR-V has at least two — overfilled oil levels with a gas smell, & heat not working.
Both problems affecting the Honda CR-V's 1.5L "Earth Dreams" engine appear to be related to cold-climate regions.
CR-V owners also report no heat even after warming up their CR-Vs for 30 minutes — not even enough to defrost the windshield. So far, there has been no fix from Honda for this issue.
My car is a 2017 Honda CRV Touring model, with all the bells and whistles. Back in June 2019, I had the tires rotated and 1-2 days later I noticed that the car sounded kind of loud and there was this "rubbing" when I drove, all the time when the car was moving. The other day (I couldn't get back there sooner because I had my hours changed at work) I took it back to the place that did the rotation and they looked at it and told me there was a definite suspension problem.
Both front tires are worn extensively and there is a defective DS hub bearing assembly. I am scheduled to drive to NC for Christmas and although they said I could make it, I would rather not take the chance. I will be calling the Honda dealer close to my home on Monday morning and hopefully they can get me in soon to get it taken care of. The mechanic that looked at it said there is no way that a two year old vehicle with only 27,000 miles should have that kind of an issue.
