| Description of the problem | Purchased my 1. 5 ltr crv in august of 2018, during the 2nd week in november of 2018, the temperature dropped below 30 degrees f. I would start the car and let it run idle to heat up but even after 20 min, the engine temp gauge remained at the lowest level but would rise once driving the vehicle. The heat only comes out moderately warm and the temp gauge goes back down when the vehicle is at a stop. During the past few days or so, i started experiencing a smell of gasoline fumes in the cabin of the car. I get headaches, dizziness, nausea, and chest pains and an overall ill feeling after driving the vehicle which remains for about 4 to 5 hours later. I decided to check the oil and it smelled like gasoline and was way over the maximum level. I called the honda dealership today 11/28, who called honda corporate to try and get me a loaner car and honda corporate stated that the car is safe to drive. The car is definitely not safe to drive and is making me feel extremely ill. I hope honda takes responsibility for this issue. |
