Tamara recall my car has started burning oil at about 82,000 miles. I am putting a quart in about every 1500 miles. It seams like it is gradually burning more oil I just had to add 2 quarts and this is the second time adding between its last oils change. I have oil changed at dealership every 4-5 thousand miles. I have seen this is a problem with this year cars but mine has not fallen under any recalls I am wondering why? this car is in michigan I warm the engine up before driving. I have had the car in and looked at it is not leaking oil it is burning it.
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 why they cannot perform the work in the warranty extension. Today, the service manager luis/louis was very unsympathetic to my 2-year long ordea. He said, " you haven't dealt with me yet" which not only sounded like a threat, but also sounded like code for: "I'm just going to put you through more never-ending tests and not fix the problem. " that proved true. Despite a svc rep named shanice arce promising me (on 10/26/17) that they would implement the warrantyext/pison ring fix, this proved to be another lie. When I contacted them today, after driving another 1,000 - per liberty's neverending test demands, liberty Honda's service dept. Once again told me I would have to undergo more tests. It never ends! when problems surface pertaining to oil consumption, liberty's service people always come up with an excuse why they won't do the work required under the sticking ring warranty extension. On 7/13/17, another svc rep (in a very perfunctory, unfriendly manner - wish I had his name) told me that liberty would not perform the work - even though my crv was at least two qts down. Additionally, they seem to be bringing me in just to charge me for something else. I've had to needlessly take off time from work for liberty's runaround. And their shuttle service once did not pick up me up at the end of the dayhttps://www-odi. Nhtsa. Dot. Gov/vehiclecomplaint/# - - until I spoke with sales 2 hours later (8pm).
The vtc acuator 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 grinds at the start, sometimes not starting at all, due to high oil consumption because of the faulty vtc acuator. The cost to replace this part is $750 and does not even solve the problem. It has been documented that the problem can often reoccur after another 10,000 miles. We were once planning on staying loyal Honda customers, but this fraudulence has convinced us to switch to a different manufacturer and tell everyone we know to do the same.
The contact owns a 2011 Honda Cr-v. While driving various speeds, the wrench warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the sloane Honda dealer located in philadelphia PA, for a third oil consumption test. The contact was informed that the levels were perfect and did not need rings. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the technician used a dipstick and informed the contact that there was no oil in the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that she needed to provide a two year history of the oil consumption. The approximate failure mileage was 78,102.
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 returned to find out it was completely out of oil. We had oil changed again in August, 2016 -- again completely out of oil. We took the car numerous times to Honda for protocol testing of oil usage at measured mile markers. Was told repeatedly that the car was not within protocol limits for fixing, even though it completely went through the oil twice in a span of eight months. The car was serviced again on October 17, 2016 and we have put in 2. 3 quarts of oil since then. In the protocol testing starting August 10 to October 17, the car used 2. 07 quarts of oil. We are getting very close to the 125,000 extended warranty level and it is so frustrating to know there is a problem, but Honda will not stand behind its product. We also have a 2004 Honda Cr-v that we have never had to put a drop of oil in -- just regular service to it. We don't know who else to talk to about this, and have been completely dissatisfied with the answers from the local Honda. We were loyal Honda customers -- now we aren't.
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 miles. I went back after 1000 miles per the requirements for oil consumption problem. They told me that the oil level & use was correct for 1000 miles. Oil life was at 80%. I planned to change my oil every 5000 to avoid this problem. However I am on my 3rd time to have the Honda dealer to check for oil consumption problems. I will be sending all the complaints separately. I am notifying all that I can in hopes to have this problem fixed by Honda.
Vehicle bought new in 2011 and only one owner. In early 2015, my vehicle went from having my oil changed between 5000 and 7000 miles to barely making it to 3000. 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. Information was received from Honda regarding extension on warranty due to possible high oil consumption & was stated that oil consumption test could be completed at Honda dealership. Honda dealership began test in October 2015 and was completed in February 2016. . 8 quarts used after first 1000 miles, 1quart used after 2000miles and . 8quarts after 3000miles. After each check, 1 quart oil was added by Honda dealership. After third check, I was told by service manager that this did not Honda specifications to warrant rebuild to correct problem in engine causing high oil consumption. Was told that this was not normal but vehicle was still safe to drive. In fall 2016, I contacted dealership again regarding issue & also had two lights (check engine light & traction light) come on at the same time. Honda agreed to complete another oil consumption test & check lights. Was told that timing chain had been stretched and needed to be replaced. Honda service manager would not confirm that timing chain was stretched due to high oil consumption even though research & other mechanics suggest otherwise. Honda corporation was contacted multiple times & will not comply with returning calls, answering questions, etc. Different answers are given from different people within Honda (Honda corporation & dealership). Was told that car should not be driven until timing chain fixed, but oil consumption test can not be done if vehicle not driven?.
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. The last check, we took a picture of the dipstick after sitting overnight before we took it to Honda. It was a quart low and the service department told us that it was barely low. They lied to us. They also told us this is normal consumption. We called Honda directly and can't seem to get anyone to listen to us.
Our 2011 Honda crv is using 1. 4qts of oil per 1,325 miles. We have had it to the dealer 3-4 times checking for leaks and cracks and found nothing and stated that this within normal Honda ranges in oil consumption. The dealer finally did an oil consumption test on the vehicle and asked Honda corporate if they would cover the repairs to replace the pistons and rings under the 8 year, 100,000 mile exteneded warranty that Honda has purposed as a "fix. " corporate denied the dealer's request to fix the repair under the warranty. I called corporate myself and the case manager took the information down, but was denied again by the same executive that talked to the dealer with the same response. I questioned the "warranty" and stated that if it was a true warranty, they would correct the problem. My guess is that they don't have a fix for this issue and they chose the route of ignoring the problem. This is unacceptable for a 4 year old vehicle to keep adding oil at the owner's expense and just plain frustrating!.
