    The engine is getting gas in the oil. I have taken oil samples that show greater than 5% gas in the engine with lower than minimum oil viscosity. I have taken it to the dealer who changed the oil. Less than 1000 miles later, the problem is back. The engine hesitates randomly especially when slowing down. I've taken the vehicle to two different dealers with the same "there's nothing we can do". I asked them if they…

    The issue was discovered when doing an oil level check. After seeing a problem i changed the oil and filter. The dealer had put 3.8 qts. In, but 5.0 qts. Came out. The old oil was very dirty and very thin. The issue = fuel leaking into the engine oil of honda's 1.5 turbo engine, installed into the 2019 honda cr-v. This appears to be the same problem as with the 2017 & 2018 models. Honda reported that their fix…

    Gasoline leaking into the engine lubricating oil. When i bought the car the dealer assured me that honda had taken care of the problem. I feel that a recall is justified since this will certainly lead to shorter engine life and could possibly lead to an engine fire. I noticed the problem after checking the oil after a trip of 500 miles.
