All the oil ran out of my new 2007 CR-V !!
 

I have a one-month old 07 CRV with about 900 miles. Last night I noticed
the oil light blinking randomly. I checked the oil level as soon as I got
home, just a couple miles later. It was down, so I added a quart. I did
another short errand (5 miles), then checked the oil again. Still low, so I
added another quart and parked it for the night. This morning I checked the
stick and it showed nothing. So I added two more quarts, bringing the level
up to full (2nd hole in the stick). I drove the car directly to the dealer
this morning (about 5 miles) with no oil light coming on.

I now realize that the oil has been running out for a week or more. There
are oil spots where I park my car at work, and two large spots in my
driveway. The oil level was down 4 quarts!

Some questions...

- Has anyone else had this problem?

- What is the total oil capacity of this vehicle? I suspect it is just over
4q, so my oil was VERY low.

- Should I demand a new car from the dealer, since I drove it for some days
this way? (Probably about 20-30 miles per day.)

- Any other thoughts/insights?

TIA,
