That sounds like the **1.5T fuel-in-oil dilution & vibration** issue — it's a known defect on Honda CR-V/Civic/Accord from 2017–2022.

1.5L turbo engines suffer fuel intrusion into the crankcase, causing oil dilution, gasoline odor, vibration, and potential engine damage — particularly in cold climates.
