We bought the CR-V in June 2008 and now have 9,000 miles on the car. The car developed an oil leak within the last month. We brought the car into the dealer and come to find out it was the rear main seal. The engine and transmission had to be removed to fix the problem. With a honda I never dreamed I would have a problem like this, and I now see that many other people are having the same problem. Is it re-call time?

Replying to: nothappy22 (Nov 06, 2009 7:35 pm) Good luck in getting satisfaction. But did you notice that one full year separates your post from the previous post. This issue doesn't seem to be anything other than a very rare defect.   I drove my new '98 Accord home from the dealer and found oil on floor the next morning. Not happy, to say the least. The seal between engine and transmission was bad. It took 4 days to replace, but the dealer provided a loaner car and gave me several free-service coupons. The car never had another problem in 10 years.

We have a CRV and really haven't been impressed by it, It seems cheaply made with little things always going wrong. Haven't had the big AC failure yet, knock on wood, but we've had lots of different rattles, leaking windshield washer, power window issues and premature discoloring in the interior. It also dents easily like a tin can in parking lots. Don't really care for the RAV-4 either as it is obsolete with the dumb tailgate and spare tire set up. Not sure what we'll replace it with.
