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 report overfilled oil levels due to fuel in the oil, & sometimes a gas smell in the cabin. That problem appears to be related to fuel injection which Honda hopes to fix via a software update. Honda so far has only conducted a recall in China & a "product update" in Canada.

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.

The rear tires are sparse and in the inside of the tire is being worn. I cost money because the rest of the tire is like new but I need to change it because of that. I went to the warranty and they said that is pretty normal, but for some mechanics and for myself is not normal. Some mechanics recommend a rear camber replacement.

CR-V EX-L

First of all, I don't know how to explain this in english. My Honda CR-V 2017 rear tires are being overly worn on the inside. So I get a flat tire because I never see the tire in the inside. A lot of people told me that It looks like the suspension is sparse. I went to get it aligned, but the problem still exists. I went to the dealer and they say that is normal, but is not normal if the tires are wasting away.
