This is all great info, thanks so much! We haven't decided if we want new or used - I think we'll wait as long as we can to see if the 2019 fix is working on the dilution issue.

Ugh, I bought a 2018 CRV turbo and I might be experiencing this oil dilution problem. And my car heat does not work well while idling upon starting. At 7500 miles and 5% oil life - seeing the dealer Saturday for service.

Wish I had read the CRV owners forum before I purchased mine...

How can there be no recourse?

I had a good experience with Auto Nation Honda in Sterling when I got mine last year.

FYI, I'd avoid the 2018 CR-V with the turbo engine. They have a known oil dilution issue. The 2019 supposedly has that fixed.
