Description of the problem	Purchased vehicle nov 9, 2018. From 50-450 miles, had very poor avg mpg (avg 12-16 mpg combined). On jan 1, with under 450 miles on car, and within the first 1. 5 miles of driving (driving on a slight incline), computer mpg indicator became erratic/blinking for about 2-3 minutes (indicated from 2 - 80 mpg and occasionally appeared as -------) then returned to higher than usual number. Jan 2, started car, very strong smell of raw gas inside cabin (had to open windows) for about 3-4 minutes - reported to/made appt with dealer. Jan 3, brought to dealer for appt, told no odor currently detected by service manager in cabin, nothing they could do and did not take car or provide repair order number. At 594, (feb 5) returned to dealer with strong smell of raw gas in oil (on dipstick and over engine with hood up). Oil on dipstick appeared runny. Dealer confirmed gas in oil, american honda instructed dealer this is not a problem and not to change oil. Dealer changed oil as a courtesy to me. I am deeply concerned about the safety of this raw gas odor (if involved in minor accident, will vehicle explode) and deeply concerned about the ongoing damage to engine, powertrain etc. Raw gas in cabin (even if sporadic) and oil is not normal. American honda has not yet returned my calls but has assigned a case number.
