I purchased this 1.5 turbo and found out later the gasoline flows into the oil pan mixing together. Honda says this is a common occurrence and I disagree. While purchasing this Honda, the dealership never mentioned this situation. I feel that I purchased this Honda CR-V, 1.5 turbo under fraudulent terms. Everyone knows that when gasoline is mixed with oil, the oil protection is reduced proportionately.

The engine oil level increases as the car is driven. Changed oil after 7500 mile interval, and the used oil was 1.2 quarts more than when first installed. Oil is being diluted

- Wayne, NJ, USA

While changing the oil myself at 14,00 miles I noticed the oil level was more than a half inch above the full line and smelled of strongly of gasoline I checked online to see if other CRV oweners were experiencing the same issue. This appears to be a widespread problem with honas 1.5 turbo engine. After reading about the issue I was reminded of two instances this past winter when the vehicle cabin smelled strongly of gasoline, both times while stopped in traffic.

While driving on a city street, the engine of our 2018 Honda CR-V (1.5 L turbo) suddenly lost power and smoke began pouring out of the exhaust, this happened during rush hour on a busy portland, Oregon, street on a dark and rainy October evening. Thankfully, the driver of the CR-V managed to get off the street and roll into a gas station without getting rear-ended. The CR-V was towed to a Honda dealer's service department, where the cause of the problem was identified as "oil level above spec." Rising oil level is a common problem in 2017-18 Honda Cr-vs, caused by dilution of crankcase oil with unburned gasoline due to an engine design flaw well known to Honda. Driving a vehicle with an engine that could fail at any time/place is definitely a safety issue, and the affected Honda vehicles should immediately be recalled in the U.S. they already been recalled in china!

Oil being diluted with gas. Honda issued a "service bulletin" about this. There is a youtube video about it: Https://www.youtube.com/watch?V=fvdknrgzgt8 we took it in and the "fix" was a software update, but the oil continues to get diluted with gas. We will be taking it in for the 3rd time for this problem. In Wisconsin, if they fail to fix the problem in 4 tries, it becomes a lemon. I don't want it to come to that because I am sure that will be a big hassle, but the long term problems caused by gas in the oil may be worse. Not what I expect from Honda!

We purchased a new 2018 Honda CR-V ex in December 2018 from a near-by Honda dealer. We live in baltimore county, md, and do most of our driving locally. Within a matter of weeks after driving, we started noticing a strong gas smell in the cabin and outside the car. The issue has persisted, and started to get worse. We researched our issue, and noted many customer complaints regarding oil dilution problems on 2018 cr- V 1.5L turbo-charged engines. In early April 2019, we had our first service visit to check our cabin gas smell problem with the dealer. Mileage 1,500 miles. On the service report, dealer noted "confirmed oil and gas mixture complaint. Oil level was much higher than normal on dipstick. Honda is aware of this issue but does not have a fix at this time. Please check oil level often". we had the dealer perform an oil and filter change due to strong gas odor in our cabin. The dealer indicated Honda will not pay for the oil change, even though it was part of a known unresolved issue. There is no recall in Maryland yet, but there should be in our opinion. Since changing the oil three weeks ago, the gas odor is less observable at this time. We consider the oil dilution problem to be a health concern, and a potential safety problem on the CR-V. we are concerned to have a significant issue with no fixes available in Maryland. We understand Honda has already issued fixes for oil dilution issues in neighboring pennsylvannia and Delaware.
