 Description of the problemPurchased car new in january 2018. Noticed heat didn't get very warm, and would cool off at a traffic light, or on a downhill. Winter in delaware was not severe in january. Around 2200 miles, i checked my oil, found it about a half quart high, and smelled strongly of gasoline. Oil is also very dark, nearly black. 1/2 quart extra gasoline in oil sump of 3. 7 quarts, means about 12% of the oil was gasoline. This presents 2 major dangers: fire hazard from excess gasoline in oil, and engine failure, due to lack of proper lubrication. I've brought my car in to honda twice, and 2400 & 4000 miles, both times, they contacted honda techline, and provided an oil and filter change free of charge. I am minimizing my use of this vehicle, hoping honda will port "the china solution" to the us soon. As honda doesn't seem to be acknowledging the problem in the us or canada, it will likely be up to the regulators or lawyers to force them to take the problem seriously. Nhtsa - please step up, require a solution, before we start finding burning hondas on the roadside.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
