The car strongly smelled of gas after running for short while for a long time. We ignored it initially. Later we realized that the odor was too strong to ignore and we have to open the window to get the smell out. The car was taken to the dealer who made some changes. It was taken care of. But the smell re-appeared after a couple of weeks and it was extremely strong during the extreme cold week, end of january 2019.…

Gas is mixing in the oil of our new 2017 honda cr-v. The 1.5 liter engine does not warm up sufficiently in cold weather, runs rich, and leaves un-combusted gas in the oil. Began losing power.

The car is stalling from taking off from a stop. It's has been determined there is fuel getting into the oil pan causing the engine to stall at times, making merging into traffic unsafe.

Fuel/Propulsion System
In cold weather, when the car isn't to full operating temperature, fuel mixes with the engine oil which increases the oil volume over time. Honda has issued a recall in northern states but refuses to address other states where the problem exists (problem fully documented from the local dealer). Recall needs to be expanded to all states. Too much engine oil (mixed with fuel) will cause the car to stall. In addition,…

As i was driving in the fast lane of the 405 freeway the car started to vibrate and make a lot of noise. Then it slowed down and would not accelerate at a normal rate. I went from 65 mph to about 30mph and barely avoided faster cars while pulling to the exit lane. I was able to take surface streets home. I thought it might be a blown head gasket so i checked the oil for water and found a lot of gas in it. The…

On 12-5-2018 i started smelling gas fumes in and around the vehicle, while driving or parked. Contacted dealership 12-7-2018, scheduled an appointment and went in today. They are aware of the problem but said all they can do is change the oil as they don't have a fix for the problem of fuel getting into oil on my 1.5 turbo. (this problem has been going on since 2015 based on documentation found on the internet.)…

I smell gasoline in the cabin while driving. I'm really concerned because i have my 2 year-old son in the car with me most of the time. That's going to cause some health issues. The oil level shown on the dip stick is always high and has heavily gas smell when dip stick is pulled out of engine.
