any new crv owners have that recall issue , where there is a gas smell in the cabin ? I saw online its because of a ecu map error.
anyone reported or experience anything like that ?
thanks

No issues to that effect and mine is going on 1.3 years (2018 model).

No issue so far... Well regarding fuel odour. Closing in on 50000Kms... Premium fuel

I use super. I have used premium when there was no super available.

Reviving an old thread.

Any up to date issues?

Looking for a mechanic who currently works at the firm and does personal jobs on this model.

No issues personally but there is a recall on my 2018 for the fuel pump. I have an appointment in May to get it changed (at no cost).

The fuel pump problem occurs even with the JDM model. The simple fix is to use the pump from the previous model. But of course the locally sold ones will be under dealer's warranty, so that matter is solved.
PM me if anyone needs a spare smartkey for the JDM model.
Peace.
