2017 Honda Civic

MY OILS IS BEING DILUTED BY FUEL STRONG ODER OF GAS FROM OIL. SHOWS THAT IT IS OVER FILLED . WHEN IT IS COLD OUT SIDE MY ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT IS STUTTERING AND IT STARTS TO CLICK UNDER ACCELERATION. MY CAR HAS ALREADY HAD FUEL RAIL AND INJECTORS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY FOR MISFIRING ISSUES AND MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY 50 MPH ROADS AND HAD TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT. EVERY HONDA DEALER I'VE BROUGHT IT TO SAYS THIS IS NORMAL AND WILL NOT ADMIT THAT MY OIL IS DILUTED. BUT I HEARD THEM SAYING HOW BAD THE OIL SMELL OF GAS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE FIVE TIMES, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED, INCLUDING FIVE "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM", "VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM", AND "ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PROBLEM" MESSAGES THAT APPEARED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I WENT TO GO START MY VEHICLE AFTER LEAVING WORK AT 4 AM, 5/9/2019. UPON TRYING TO START MY VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF. I COULD NOT START THE VEHICLE. MY CAR'S LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING, WITH A WEIRD CLICKING NOISE BEING MADE. ON THE DASHBOARD, THE SYSTEM STARTED STATING "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM". "MANUAL BRAKE PROBLEM", "STABILITY PROBLEM", AND A COUPLE OTHER ERRORS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, AND UPON DOING RESEARCH, THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH 2016-2018 HONDA CIVICS. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS NOT ON, AND I HAVE NEVER USED THAT FEATURE. AT THE TIME OF THIS COMPLAINT, MY VEHICLE IS SITTING IN MY WORK'S FULL PARKING LOT, AND I AM STRANDED.

ENGINE OIL DILUTION. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE L15 ENGINES AND GAS FLOWING DOWN PAST THE PISTONS INTO THE CRANKCASE. THESE ENGINES HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN CHINA AND ONLY "AFFECTED" STATES IN THE US AND CANADA. I DO NOT LIVE IN ONE OF THESE "AFFECTED" STATES BUT MY ENGINE OIL LEVEL IS ABOVE THE MAXIMUM LEVEL AND SMELLS HEAVILY OF GAS.

UPON DOING RESEARCH ON THE TECH THAT WENT INTO THE MOTOR OF THE 2017 SI. I FOUND THAT THE SAME MOTOR WAS IN THE 2017 CRV AND THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON IT FOR A FULE PROBLEM. I DID NOT FIND THE EXACT PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE HOWEVER I DID NOTICE THAT WHEN CHANGEING OIL THERE IS A VERY STRONG GASOLINE SMELL. I'M AFRAID OF THERE BEING DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR DUE TO LOSS OF LUBRICATION. (THE DATE I'LL PUT FOR WHEN IT HAPPENED WILL BE THE LAST DATE OF AN OIL CHANGE.)

IJULY 2017 IS WHEN I FIRST NOTICED MY CAR AUTOMATICALLY RE-SETTING WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE AT LEGAL SPEED OF 70 MILES AN HOUR! ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR'S DASHBOARD ILLUMINATED WITH EVERY COLORED WARNING LIGHT & A SPINNING-DOTED CIRCLE LIGHT AS IF CAR COMPUTER WAS SEARCHING FOR A SIGNAL OR BEING REMOTELY RESET! THE RADIO TURNED OFF, THE SCREEN WENT BLACK, THE COMPUTER DASHBOARD FLASHED UNTIL FINALLY THE 'H' HONDA LOGO APPEARED ON THE RADIO SCREEN RESETTING ITSELF. SCARING ME TO BELIEVE THE CAR WAS SHUTTING DOWN OR ABOUT TO MALFUNCTION WHILE I WAS DRIVING! THREE MONTHS LATER THE RADIO, SATELLITE, SIDE MIRROR CAMERA, REAR BACKUP CAMERA EVERY THING ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPUTER BRAIN OF THIS CAR COMPLETELY WENT OUT! NOTHING CAN BE RESET THROUGH THE RADIO AS IT'S JUST STUCK. HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS NO EXPLANATION OTHER REPLACEMENT FOR SAFETY! DEALERSHIP REACHED OUT TO HONDA FOR ASSISTANCE AS I'VE EXCEEDED 36,000 MILE COMPLEMENTARY WARRANTY. HONDA ACTUALLY TOOK RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS MALFUNCTION AT FIRST, STATING THEY WOULD PAY/COVER MAJORITY OF COST LEAVING BALACE OF $300. I FOUND THIS TO BE CRAZY, AS THIS ELECTICAL MALFUNCTION WAS NO FAULT OF MY OWN & SHOULD INITIATE RECALL! AS I NOW HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF ALL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS ARE ERROR OR ACTUAL SAFETY WARNINGS! I HAVE NO REAR CAMERA OR SIDE MIRROR CAMERA DUE TO THIS RADIO/COMPUTER MALFUNCTION! THIS IS A DANGER DRIVING THIS CAR SO I CONTACTED HONDA AND EXPLAINED I WAS WILLING TO PAY THE $300 FOR REPLACEMENT. ONLY TO BE TOLD THEIR OFFER TO PAY/COVER MALFUNCTION ERRORS WAS NO LONGER ON THE TABLE, GIVING NO REASON WHY OFFER WAS REVOKED! THE CLAIMS ADJUSTER AND HER MANAGER THEN VERY RUDELY & DISRESPECTFULLY HUNG UP THE PHONE! I FEEL UNSAFE EVERYTIME BEHIND THE WHEEL OF THIS CAR! PLEASE AID IN ESTABLISHING A RECALL
