2017 Honda crv- ex / stalling on freeway vehicle identification number � 7farw1h57he006679 on may 29, 2018, my car which has 16,0000 miles on it, started making a horrible engine noise, cylinders misfiring, loss of power and stalled while on the 405 freeway, I began to panic due to fact I was in the fast lane. I started to smell gas in the passenger compartment while cars are streaming to halt to avoid a multi car pileup. I didn't know whether to get out of the car or stay in, that's when I saw an 18 wheeler barreling towards me trying to stop. This truck came 2 feet from rear ending me. I was to shaken to speak for 5 minutes because my life flashes in front of me. This is a safety issue and Honda should conduct an official recall. Does someone have to die before a recall take place? Honda's manager of recalls, brad ortloff, said oil in these engines could be diluted because of software settings or potential hardware failures. Some vehicles could experience a loss of power, leading to cylinder misfires or engine noise. In addition to those symptoms, consumers have reported that their engines stalled or that the vehicles experienced a sudden loss of power, raising safety concerns. During the past 6 months I've been having the following problems with my vehicle � oil dilution, rising oil levels, stalling and loss of power and stalling. I understand that Honda motor company, ltd has recalled 350,000 Honda crv's in china & canada because of the same problem. I would like Honda to buy back my vehicle due to rising safety issues. Given that the problem is well documented, Honda has a responsibility to address these issues in an open and transparent manner. Anthony lewis NHTSA u. S. Attorney general dept.

Engine was making a fluttery sound. Noticed fuel in oil, found cams were binding and timing chain was stretched and loose. They replaced cylinder head and timing chain. Learned online this is a known result of oil diluted by fuel, and there is a fix but only for cars registered in certain states, not my state. Complained to american Honda, case #09409822. Was told oil dilution is normal, car should not be driven short distances - claimed this is in warranty documents - and they will do nothing, and also cannot provide me with anything in writing. No presale mention of "requirement" to not drive under several miles. With my 1/2-mile commute, would never have purchased this vehicle. Based on this I am terrified that some time while driving in the future the timing chain will fail while I am driving, the engine will stop, and this could lead to serious injury or death -- either mine or yhat of strangers.
