The ignition is keyless. I pressed to turn off the engine and it shut off. But I forgot to shift into park. I exited the car. The car started rolling backward. I ran back to it, jumped in and shifted to park, stopping the car. If I hadn't noticed and stopped the car, someone might have been hurt. When you stop the engine, there should be an automatic shift to park or an automatic activation of the emergency brake.

While in motion the CR-V continues to bright light oncoming traffic, as well as the steering wheel pull towards oncoming traffic abruptly while the volume of the stereo goes constantly from loud to mute, and the door lock/ unlocks being continual. Vehicle has stalled out on different occasions. There is odor of gasoline while inside the vehicle, usage of fuel drastically increased, noticed our throats hurting/ voice hoarseness/ coughing/ passenger pass out until windows are cracked open (carbon monoxide?). constant sputtering, no horsepower, can't stay with the flow of traffic on interstate, brakes do not want to work on different occasions, vehicle abruptly slams on the brakes at times saying road departure (clearly we are not departing the roadway). Doors to the back have not allowed the passengers in the back to open them, causing the children to panic in fear of being trapped in the vehicle. The remote start has only worked (2) times in a years time. There has been a buzzing/ humming motor sound coming from the rear axle area after the vehicle has been stationary for over (5) hours. Gasoline has now been noticed in the oil. The dash periodically goes completely black unable to see anything. The automatic lights (dimming/ bright lights) does not work, and has only worked (1) time. A couple of occasions it has smoked, like large clouds of smoke from the exhaust anytime the accelerator was pushed. Fearful of traveling in the CR-V, we do not use after dark, the amount spent on fuel has more than doubled and we do drastically less driving in the CR-V since the increasing fuel usage. At times it feels as if the vehicle is controlled by someone else, it's difficult correcting the steering when it is pulling towards oncoming traffic.

I have had numerous problems with my CRV, most recently a complete malfunction where car did not go over 10 mph and dashboard lights all flashing on alert. Honda mechanics told me this was my fault for overfilling my oil tank. Wanted to charge me $2500 for a new catalytic converter. After much negotiating they lowered cost. However I have since seen this is a common problem with this model and should have been recognized as such.

2018 Honda CRV. Consumer writes in regards to whirling noise from engine.

- Shoreview, MN, USA

While driving at a slow speed in a parking lot vehicle misfired and all electrical components became nonfunctional. Lost some control of the vehicle. Parked car immediately and car started to rev itself while in park without pushing the pedal. All system alert indicators came on indicating issues with multiple electrical & engine components. Turned car off for a minute. Turned car back on and all indicator lights remained. Called local Honda dealership immediately and had towed to dealership. Honda dealership indicated that they noticed misfires as well when testing and car was not performing well. Dealership indicated the following in diagnostic report: "found engine oil to be over filled. Code P0300 randam misfire. There was gas in the fuel - performed oil change and updated the pgm - fi system" after conducting research we found that this is a known issue with Honda CRV 2018 models, but there is not an official recall. It is a known issue by Honda that gas gets in to the oil panel and dilutes the oil with gas. This is both a safety and mechanical issue that needs fixed. This is a safety issue as had our car misfired at higher speed this could have easily caused an accident with the amount of lost control of the vehicle. This will also assuredly effect the life of the vehicles engine as oil is diluted by gas. The dealership was not forthcoming with information regarding this known issue by Honda of gas getting into the oil tank and causing stalling and misfires issues just as what happened to us. It was not until we told them we found information on it ourselves did they recognize it. We were informed by the dealership that our particular VIN had already had the update and fix that was suggested by Honda for this issue. If that is the case, then it did not remedy our vehicle, and this is still a safety issue Honda needs to rectify with its customers.

On December 22, 2019 I was headed to church on a four-lane highway and heard the sound coming from the engine, a loud metal to metal sound and the vehicle died. I was able to restart the car and pulled off the road and had car hauled to dealership where I purchased the vehicle and where I had it maintained. I had the vehicle hauled over to dealership on a trailer to avoid driving it. After the dealership investigated, they found that the oil to the engine was blocked but couldn't determine what blocked the oil. Hearing metal to metal it could have been shavings from the metal rubbing together. It is January 9, 2020 and I am still without a my car. They replaced the engine and had it ready on Saturday, January 5, 2020. However, when I drove off in it, the engine was roaring. So, I took it right back and left it once again. They called me on Monday, January 6, 2020 and said my car was ready once again. I went back to dealership in which I work in 53 mile away. I test drove it and the roaring sound was still there. They (the service department) thought it was the tires so they rotated the tires and still heard the roaring sound. They decided it was the wheel bearing. Wheel bearings should not go out in a 2018 vehicle. I felt the roaring was still in the engine. I will hopefully pick my car up on Friday, January 10, 2020 in hopes the roaring sound is gone. I believe this issue is related to the issue the 2017 and 2018 Honda CRV owners are experiencing with the oil. Nevertheless, a 2018 Honda touring should not have all these issues. I am an unhappy customer and now I feel the value of my car is depreciated.

I bought car used from GM dealership 3/16/19, wasn't aware of problem until first scheduled oil change.gas mixing in with oil causing oil level to rise significantly over short period of time, about a quart high with around 2,000 miles driven, mostly highway. Honda service had me bring in vehicle after oil change to check level, then again after 1,000 miles to recheck. Brought in in after about 1700 miles and oil was up about a quart according to service manager. Honda dealer performed software "fix" to alleviate problem, but after 1,500 miles, oil level up significantly again. Dealer contends Honda doesn't have protocols in place to take care of issue yet. Car in Honda dealership today again for assessment, third oil change in 2 months. Difficult to evaluate cars performance since I bought used and never had normal baseline to compare to.

The engine oil keeps increasing in volume causing me to drain about 1/2 qt about every 1000-1500 miles. If you do not keep a check on this it will degrade or cause engine failure. I live in Georgia which has a mild climate.

My 2018 Honda cr V has the 1.5 litre turbo engine. I have reviewed several hundred complaints that have been filed regarding the mixing of the fuel/gas with the engine oil. The issue seems to be more prevalent in the North, however, I have the same issue here in Oklahoma. Upon engine start there is a strong odor of gasoline coming from the rear passenger seating. I have also noted increase oil levels in the engine crankcase. Also the smell of gasoline coming from the oil dipstick. I am writing to inquire if Honda motor company intends to do something to remedy this issue. The smell starts at the moment the engine is started.. the car can be stationary and I can still notice the smell of fuel. Prolonged exposure of fuel in the crankcase will certainly reduce the life of these engines. Please advise me as to how I can resolve this matter with Honda? thank you.

I bought a Honda CR-V 2018 last year in May. The vehicle only have 8000 miles on it. Now I recently notice that when I am starting the car when pressing on the brake and pressing the start button. It will try to start but fails. It seems you need to do this numerous times to start the vehicle. This have been happening to me in the last 3 days. I called the Honda dealer about it and schedule an appointment with them tomorrow.
