2003 Honda crv, ann morris driving to work alone, approximately 7. 30am, smelt a gas type smell in side car and then noticed smoke coming out of underneath the dashboard. Immediately ann pull of the road into a near by k-mart plaza. Ann then called aaa for assistance. The crv was taken by a aaa agent to the nearest Honda dealer, lanier Honda, near buford, GA. Honda found no problem with vehicle, only a leaky oil filter. The crv oil was changed in July at the walmart in suwanee, GA. This was the second oil change, at the same walmart. It was noticed that oil was leaking following the second oil change with oil stains under the car in the garage, immediately following the 2nd oil change, but the it stopped or seemed too. I will be in contact with Honda as my wife and I are seriously concerned. Although my wife only saw smoke, there is no smoke without fire!!! the suituation make us were nervous. . .

Shortly after the first oil change was performed, smoke starting coming from the engine while driving home. This occurred because the oil filter was installed with the exciting o-rings, thus creating an oil leak. The oil dripped on the exhaust. This could result in an engine fire. To avoid this from recurring when an the oil filter and the o-rings had to be replaced.
