2018 Honda CR-V Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Initial oil change on 2018 honda cr-v ex with 1. 5 turbo engine at 2303 miles. One week after changing oil noticed oil level had increased over 1/8" on dipstick and that oil on dipstick smells strongly of gasoline (oil level check was performed several hours after driving). Dilution of oil with gasoline is obviously detrimental to continued engine operation - therefore i can no longer drive my new vehicle. Research of the issue and identical symptoms from numerous owners clearly proves that honda does not accept responsibility for this catastrophic design flaw (not in america anyway). Appears only possible solutions are class action lawsuit, lemon laws or waiting for honda to man up. The obvious misinformation and corruption of the manufacturer toward their customers, concerning this well documented issue, is (imho) disgusting! It is not normal or in anyway safe or ok for engine crankcases to fill up with gasoline.... Ever!!! The fuel in oil issue is not the issue (design flaws happen when manufacturers fail to properly test new designs)... Honda's corrupt treatment of customers with the issue is the real issue and continued similar behavior just might put them out of business permanently.
