| Description of the problem | Knowing that there is a potential hazard in getting the oil changed in my 2004 honda cr-v, i have been researching a solution. In that process, i have been told by several auto service places that they will not service my car due to the liabilities involved. They told me that other vehicles do not catch on fire when a gasket is left on or some oil leaks out, so something was changed in the cr-v engine that is allowing the oil to now reach the manifold. I will not feel safe when the time comes to deal with this. Honda must take ownership of this problem. *jb |
