Gas improperly leaking into the oil. My original engine failed with no root cause analysis confirming the problem. The dealership installed a different used engine and after 2,500 miles on oil installed in December 2018, sent the oil to a blackstone labs for testing on Feb 1, 2019. They confirmed high levels of gas in the oil. My original engine had a catastrophic failure and it will be repeated again if we cant get Honda to own this problem. Their response so far is there is no problem. This problem seems to happen during the winter months in the midwest. The first sign is the oil dipstick showing oil levels rising over weeks. The final result from the lowered combustion temperature of the oil is an event which converts the remaining oil to sludge which causes engine failure within a short time frame after the car cools down. It's not clear how the high levels of gas in the oil causes the engine failure or how the oil converts to sludge within weeks.
My car stalled, it had stalled before. I meant to go in and have the dealer look at it but I did not do that. On April 10th 2018 I went to pull out on hwy 78, from my road weekend villa, my car stalled, and I was hit head-on and put in the hospital. I did not realize how dangerous the stalling would be. .
