Engine Oil Leaking problems of the 2014 Honda CR-V

Oil usage is extremely high with no visible leaks, and engine is dry. I am at the point of my oil needing to be changed, and my oil was nearly empty. I have put in 3 qt's in the last 3 weeks. Also, I live in nys, and on cooler days to freezing days, there is a loud grinding rattle that happens when I start my car. I had a 2010 that did the same thing.

My vehicle was stalled in the early morning of July 17, 2019 in a parking lot and towed to a Honda dealership nearby. The mechanic's diagnosis was that the vehicle stall was caused by the shortage of all fuses in the primary fuse box due to leaking oil from the timing chain cover of the engine. The mechanic mentioned that the oil leak occurred for a while so it shorted out the fuses through the incased electrical wires. I think that it definitely is a safety issue because my life could be in a danger if the shortage occurred when I drove this vehicle on the highway. Therefore, I wanted your agency to raise this safety issue related to Honda crv to Honda manufacturer and consumers who are currently driving a similar type of the vehicle. I am currently cooperating with a representative from Honda customer service for an investigation of this serious safety issue. Sincerely, (xxxx) p. S.

My elderly mother died in a fire in her 2014 Honda Cr-v. There were no witnesses to the origin of the fire. The car was first seen when fully engulfed by flame, 10 to 20 minutes after my mother was seen getting into her car. Unknown if she let it idle before driving. She drove about 1200 feet. Her car was found in wet ivy at the side of the road. Her key was in her hand, and she was leaning towards the passenger side of the car, apparently trying to escape the fire. (because the car was on a hill, leaning towards the passenger side, flames from beneath the car were strongest on the driver side and would have blocked her exit. The passenger side was not completely burned. ) it is improbable that the ivy ignited because it was late fall in the pacific northwest and the weather had been very wet for days. I believe that a fire ignited somewhere in the vehicle and this fire caused my mother to go off the road. An autopsy showed she died of smoke inhalation and burns. The car was in good condition with recent servicing. No signs of recent oil leakage in garage. We have located other 2012-2014 Cr-v fires that began spontaneously. Some blamed on leaves trapped in vehicle, another on fluid leaks, including two on safercar. Gov. (NHTSA nos. 10654938 and 10546273). I retain the vehicle. ## VIN passed ## Honda crv 2014 ##.
