| Description of the problem | This car has suffered from oil dilution with gasoline since it was purchased in august 2018. I have taken it to the dealer who changed the oil at my expense and claimed that increasing oil in the crankcase is normal and should be expected. The oil level increases about 1 quart for every 2000 miles driven and the oil smells like gasoline. This problem happens at all ambient temperatures, and regardless of whether the vehicle is traveling in short trips or extended highway drives. |
