| Description of the problem | After driving a short distance on a city street, i noticed a strong gas smell in the cabin. I have since read on social media and websites where other cr-v owners have experienced the same problem and there is an oil dilution problem. Every time i check the oil level, i can smell gas on the dipstick. I am aware honda has issued a recall in china for this same issue. They need to fix the problem in the u. S. As well and do it immediately. |
