Within seconds the smoke turned dark gray. The fire department arrived in 3 minutes. I could see fire underneath the engine on the bottom at the driveway. The front door windows were busted to put out the fire on the…

Liberty honda is refusing to perform work under a warranty extension notice titled "sticking piston rings resulting in high engine oil consumption." i received the notice in august of 2015. Since then i have been given the runaround by liberty honda employees over and over about why they won't fix the problem. Despite proven oil loss, and a lit up oil light liberty honda service crew continues to fabricate reasons…

They told me to come back after a bit and have them check the oil again. When i took it back they told me my car was using oil with no leaks. They have two options to rebuild existing motor with new pistons and rings or a rebuilt motor. I have talked with mike who…

The vtc actuator is an issue on this car. The "recall" listed for this vin is 36,000 miles or 3 years, whichever comes first. This is criminal as no one will experience this issue within that time frame. It lets the manufacturer off the hook. Honda knows this is an issue as it affects many makes and models of honda cars (there is even a class action lawsuit for this particular issue for the 2014 honda crv). The car…

Excessive oil consumption. Check engine light came on and vehicle required 2 quarts of engine oil. Vehicle only has 62,000 miles on it. Honda claims that 1 quart per 1,000 miles is normal oil consumption!

Our 2011 honda cr-v is part of the extended warranty issue with honda vehicles for excessive oil consumption. We have our car serviced regularly at a local honda dealership and go by the oil life monitor when it reaches approximately 15-20%. We had the car serviced in december, 2015. On a relatively short trip in early april, 2016 we noticed something odd about the car. Took the car into the regular place when we…

Oil consumption problem - took my car in for routine oil change. 96662 miles. Oil life at 15% per manual oil maintenance. Exclusive honda (not a dealer) found no oil in my car. Sent me to a honda dealer immediately to take care of. Since they are not a honda dealer they cannot do anything to my car or may negate the extended warranty. The honda dealer found a seal oil leak stated it was probably due to the high…

At times when i lightly apply the brakes, it feels like it is trying to accelerate instead of slow down. It does this for a few seconds. It's kind of like a quick rev of the engine. Also when i lightly apply brakes, i feel a small clunk or a quick grip. Then it lets loose. It feels like it is coming from the rear right side. It happens at various times.

I was driving my 2011 honda cr-v last night and was slowing to take an exit off of a freeway. It felt as though the brakes were failing as i was having to step on them really hard to slow down. As i approached the stoplight at the end of the exit ramp, i felt as though i was not going to stop. I put the cr-v in neutral and heard the engine rev really hard and saw the tachometer reading jump over to 5000 rpm. Within…

Vehicle manufacture recommends synthetic oil and is the only type of oil that has ever been used for this vehicle. No oil was leaking form vehicle and no evidence of oil leakage under hood when checked. Oil changed multiple times with same result.…

We purchased a honda certified vehicle in jan 2015. After 4,000 miles the oil light flashed on periodically. We checked the oil and the dipstick was dry. I added two quarts of oil, it still showed only half on the dip stick and we took it to honda. They charged us for an oil change and said they needed to do a consumption test. After two 1,000 miles consumption checks, it was burning a quart of oil in each check.…
