CarComplaints.com Seal Of This Might Hurt

CarComplaints.com Notes: It's rare when a newer vehicle has defect trends, & the 2017 Honda CR-V has at least two — overfilled oil levels with a gas smell, & heat not working.

Both problems affecting the Honda CR-V's 1.5L "Earth Dreams" engine appear to be related to cold-climate regions.

CR-V owners report overfilled oil levels due to fuel in the oil, & sometimes a gas smell in the cabin. That problem appears to be related to fuel injection which Honda hopes to fix via a software update. Honda so far has only conducted a recall in China & a "product update" in Canada.

CR-V owners also report no heat even after warming up their CR-Vs for 30 minutes — not even enough to defrost the windshield. So far, there has been no fix from Honda for this issue.

The moon roof frame needs to be replaced. The moon roof was never used and there were no external damage to the roof due to any accident. Only noticed the problem when moon roof started leaking and could not be open or closed properly. Honda or dealer could not give an explanation how this happened. Car is out of warranty and Honda extended policy will not cover it.

sun roof would not close, became crooked and dislodged

I'll bet it is that the new CRVs are pretty much all made in America. Crappy union worker junk.
