 Description of the problemGasoline mixing with engine oil. This is an addition to complaint # 11138878 and 11138881. On october 8th, 2018, after we complained about oil overfull and gasoline smell in oil, our honda dealer changed the oil in our cr-v and said to "keep an eye on it." they said they could find only one other complaint like this, and the problem had gone away after one oil change. On 10/8/2018, after having the oil changed in the morning, we drove 130 miles, all highway miles, with the cr-v. The next morning we checked the oil. Already it was overfull, and already it smelled strongly of gasoline. The temperatures in michigan that day (and others around it) were actually warm, with a high of 80 degrees f. On 10/9/18 we bought a quart of honda 0w-20 oil at the dealer to compare the smell. The honda oil smells like nothing on a paper towel. Oil from the dipstick of my cr-v reeks of gasoline. Please note not low temperatures and not short trip, this was warm temps and highway miles only, and the gasoline in engine oil problem has re-occurred after only 130 miles and one day.
