description: MY 2003 HONDA CR-V EX 4WD HAD AN ENGINE FIRE ONE MORNING AFTER I STARTED THE CAR 10 MINUTES LATER. THE WEATHER TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE TEENS THAT MORNING. IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS, IT BURNED COMPLETELY. THE ONLY RECENT WORK DONE TO THE CAR WAS ITS FIRST 3000 MI OIL CHANGE. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN SEPTEMBER 2003, AND THIS ENGINE FIRE HAPPENED ON JANUARY 07, 2004. THE CAR HAD 3300 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I'VE SEARCHED NHTSA.GOV WEB SITE'S DATABASE, AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER INCIDENT THAT IS VERY SIMILAR TO MY SITUATION. I'VE ALSO FOUND MESSAGES POSTED TO NEWSGROUPS ON EDMUNDS.COM THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAD THE SAME ENGINE FIRE AFTER OIL CHANGE. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE, AND WOULD LIKE THE GOVERNMENT TO LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION AGAINST THE 2003 HONDA CRV'S *AK
