Description of the problem	We purchased our 2018 honda crv in august of 2018 and soon after found out shortly after that there was a known problem with gas getting into the oil in the 1. 5 l models in the years 2017 and 2018. When i checked the oil soon after the purchase i noticed it appeared to be a bit high on the dipstick. I decided to change the oil myself at about 1500 miles and found there was 7. 5 quarts when the actual amount should have been 3. 7 quarts. Within a few days of changing the oil i noticed the oil was up higher on the dipstick again so i made an appointment at wilde honda for service. I was told there would soon be a fix for the issue and they changed the oil. I brought the vehicle back a couple weeks later to have the fix done to the vehicle. I took the vehicle home and soon after found the oil higher on the dipstick again. I took it back to honda service again and they changed the oil but did not check how much oil was actually in the engine. I pulled out of honda service and it immediately appeared high on the dipstick but i went home with the vehicle. I waited a week or so and changed the oil myself and checked the amount of oil which was 4. 7 quarts so 1 quart over. I called honda service about the issue and they said they can do no more to help and suggested i contact honda or go through mediation. I have never had a vehicle with an issue like this and i see it is pretty widespread and not just in the usa. I guess i will work through mediation and see what can be done. We'd really like to just trade it in for a new model that does not have this issue. Should have bought the toyota rav4 instead.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
