| Description of the problem | Our 2018 honda crv touring has the oil dilution problem. Our oil level increased about 3/4 inch on the oil stick from may, 2018 to december, 2018 and it smells like gas. We have also smelled gas inside our car. Honda is fixing some cars, but we live in arkansas and our state is not on the list to be repaired. We could have an engine fire so feel it is not safe to drive. Also, the engine will wear out a lot faster with the dilution.... Even though the honda dealer said it won't!! |
