2006 Honda Civic 4-DR. w/SAB

I got a 2006 honda civic lx the airbag light is on last week . Keep blinking and i dont know why now my car wont start the mechanic said i have a problem on the fuel pump and starter . That happend when i drop off my 6yrs old daugther to her school all day i keep thinking what happend . My car stuck there for 1week i got a street cleaning ticket and i dont have a choice to get a towing service S

I have the common issue the 2006 Civic. My engine block cracked. There was already a class action lawsuit on this matter but of course it only went 10 years. Honda was in the wrong here. Why was this not a recall? I'm super frustrated. Car is available for inspection. It is at the Honda dealership right. Now.

This was a drive from NY to Boston. In Boston, I was driving about 45MPH, 1 mile before the last exit from HWY. Suddenly, the car is out of control, probably the brake system, making the car turning around until it hits the divider on the rear right side of the car. Both right-side passenger airbags were activated, but none inflated as expected. Luckily, we didn't hit any other cars. Three people in the car were safe, except I have muscle pain near the neck and shoulder.

ENGINE BLOCK IS LEAKING COOLANT. RIGHT REAR TIRE IS WEARING OFF.

THE BLOCK ON MY R18A1 HAS A HOLE, THEREFORE WE PATCH IT WITH JB WELD TO SEAL THE PROBLEM, BUT ITS STILL LEAKING.

THE ENGINE BLOCK HAS A CRACK LEAKING COOLANT. MY 16 YEAR SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR. CAR JUST SHUTDOWN HE ALMOST GOT HIT BY OTHER CAR. IT HAS BEEN A RECALL BUT THE DEALER SAID IT BEEN OVER 10 YEARS SO THEY WILL NOT FIX IT.

ENGINE BLOCK IS DEFECTIVE. HONDA HAS A 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCKS THAT START LEAKING COOLANT. MY CAR IS A 2006 AND THE WARRANTY WAS GOOD TO 2016. I AM DISAPPOINTED HONDA WILL NOT DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE. ATTACHED BELOW ARE PICTURES OF THE KNOWN LOCATION OF THE ENGINE BLOCK CASTING FAILURES.

REQUEST FOR ISSUANCE OF RECALL. 2006 CIVIC: ENGINE DOES NOT START, AND THE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM MAKES CAR INOPERABLE, ESPECIALLY IF THE BATTERY RECENTLY WENT DEAD AND THE ENGINE WAS JUMP-STARTED. THE DOME LIGHT IN MY CAR, 2006 CIVIC EX SEDAN, WAS LEFT ON THE AND BATTERY WAS DEAD, AND THEN CAR WAS JUMP STARTED. AFTER THAT THE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM PREVENTED THE CAR FROM STARTING. 1. THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN DESIGN DEFECT (HONDA DEFECT CODE: 03217) REPORTED IN MANY, MANY POSTINGS AND COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET, OVER MANY YEARS, FROM 2006 UNTIL RECENTLY, BOTH HERE IN THE U.S. AND IN THE UK. SEE EXTRACTS FROM NUMEROUS INTERNET REPORTS IN ATTACHMENT (INTERNET REPORTS - PROBLEM.DOCX). 2. THERE IS NO WARNING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM OR INFORMATION IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL FOR THIS CAR, OR ANY NOTIFICATION FROM HONDA, ON THE CORRECT WAY TO JUMP START THE CAR TO AVOID THE PROBLEM. SEE JUMP STARTING SECTION IN ATTACHMENT (2006 EX OWNER'S MANUAL.PDF) 3. HONDA HAS ISSUED: "SERVICE BULLETIN - AUGUST 2, 2006 06-036 - IMMOBILIZER INDICATOR IS BLINKING, ENGINE WON'T START SYMPTOM THE ENGINE DOES NOT START, AND THE IMMOBILIZER INDICATOR IS BLINKING (ESPECIALLY IF THE BATTERY RECENTLY WENT DEAD AND THE ENGINE WAS JUMP-STARTED). PROBABLE CAUSE THE IMMOBILIZER IMOES CODE HAS BEEN ERASED. VEHICLES AFFECTED: 2006 CIVIC 4-DOOR LX AND EX (USA-PRODUCED) ' FROM VIN 1HGFA1...6L000001 THRU 1HGFA1...6L118712 CORRECTIVE ACTION REPLACE THE UNDER-DASH FUSE/RELAY BOX (MICU - MULTIPLEX INTEGRATED CONTROL UNIT) 2006 CIVIC EX 4-DOOR A/T ' P/N 38200-SNA-A32, H/C 8356198" SEE THE COMPLETE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 2009-08-23_151940_IMMOB.PDF IN ATTACHMENT (SERVICE BULLETIN 06-036.PDF) COST OF REPAIR TO CUSTOMER - APPROX. $700-$800. AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR SHOULD NOT BE NEEDED SIMPLY FOR JUMP STARTING A CAR WITH A DEAD BATTERY - A NORMAL PROCEDURE THAT ANY CAR CAN SOMETIMES NEED. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED.

PAINT HAS PEELED FROM THE WHOLE CAR. HONDA CREATED A RECALL AND NEVER INFORMED ME. I HAD TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE DURING THE RECALL AND THEY NEVER MENTIONED IT. ONCE I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL I CONTACTED THEM BUT THEY SAID IT WAS TOO LATE. HOWEVER, I WAS NEVER INFORMED AND THEY SAID NOTHING DURING DEALER VISITS. I HAVE HEARD THEY DON'T WANT TO NOTIFY PEOPLE BECAUSE THE FIX IS VERY EXPENSIVE AS IT IS DONE OUTSIDE OF THE DEALERSHIP BY PRIVATE COMPANIES THEY PARTNER WITH. I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY THEIR RECALL.

WHEN I'M DRIVING THE CAR I NOTICE THAT MY AIR BAG LIGHT SAYS THAT MY AIR BAG IS OFF. THIS WILL BE THE 11TH RECALL AND IT HASN'T GOT FIXED YET.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RUNNING. AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FLUID LOSS. A LARGE PUDDLE WAS OBSERVED UNDER THE CAR. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THERE WAS A EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY MY VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS PAST THIS WARRANTY. I FEEL THAT THIS KIND OF ISSUE SHOULD NOT HAVE A CAP ON WHEN THE WARRANTY SHOULD END. THIS WAS A VERY WELL MAINTENANCED CAR WITH NO OTHER ISSUES.

LEAKING COOLANT FROM ENGINE BLOCK. NORMAL DRIVING.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY GOING 70 MILES AN HOUR AND MY CAR CUT OFF AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON , I CALLED AND SCHEDULED AND APPOINTMENT AND TOWED MY CAR TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP . MAURA HONDA CITRUS HEIGHTS , THEY FIXED THE PASSENGER AIR BAG , AND NOW MY CAR HAS ALL KIND OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS .*DT*JB

THE IMA SYSTEM KEEPS KICKING ON AFTER DRIVING IT WHEN YOU COME TO A FULL STOP AND PUT IT IN PARK AND CAUSING THE CAR TO STAY IN PARK AND NOT ABLE TO GET IT IN GEAR. WAIT A LITTLE OVER 30 MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN AND IT WILL ALLOW YOU TO PUT IT IN GEAR AND DRIVE. I HAVE DONE THE RECALL HOWEVER IT IS STILL DOING THE SAMETHING.

I HAD FACED LOTS OF PROBLEM WHEN I TOOK MY CAR FROM WEYMOUTH HONDA DURING 20014 TO 2016 DUE ENGINE HEAT CURRENTLY MY CAR IS RUNNING FINE BUT LOST AC COMPRESSOR DUE HUG ENGINE HEAT STILL THERE ARE MANY ISSUES BUT IT IS NOT STOPPING MY DRIVE.....

GAS TANK STRAPS RUSTED AND THE FUEL TANK FELL ONTO THE GROUND WEARING A HOLE AND EXPELLED ITS FUEL CONTENT.

PIVOT BOLT FOR THE TENSIONER PULLY SNAPPED INSIDE BLOCK THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW BECAUSE OF THE SIZE BEING WRONG FOR THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE PUT ON IT IT'S A $600 MINIMUM FIX EACH TIME

THIS 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS LESS THAN 70K MILES ON IT. ON FEBRUARY 22, 2020, MY FAMILY DROVE ABOUT 8 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED A SMELL OF ANTI-FREEZE. WHEN WE REACHED OUR DESTINATION, WE CHECKED THE ENGINE AND SAW FLUID LEAKING ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. THERE WERE NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASH SO WE DROVE ANOTHER 8 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY TO TAKE THE CAR BACK HOME. WHEN WE PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE, COOLANT COMPLETELY EMPTIED ONTO THE GARAGE FLOOR FROM A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. WHILE WE FEEL THANKFUL WE WERE ABLE TO GET HOME SAFELY, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FAILURE IN THE ENGINE HAD WE BEEN DRIVING A LONGER DISTANCE. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ON THE INTERNET, 2006 HONDA CIVICS HAVE RECOGNIZED ISSUES WITH CRACKED ENGINE BLOCKS. THE COMMON FAILURE IN THESE ENGINES SHOULD WARRANT SOME TYPE OF RECALL AS THESE CARS SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED ON THE ROADWAYS. THE FAILURE IN THE ENGINE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING AND AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, THERE WERE NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE POSSIBILITY OF THE ENGINE SEIZING WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS IS INCREDIBLY HIGH AND POSES A SIGNIFICANT RISK TO THE DRIVER, PASSENGERS, AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROADWAYS. I'M URGING NHTSA TO TAKE THE PROPER ACTIONS SO HONDA WILL REMEDY THIS SITUATION AND PREVENT POTENTIAL CATASTROPHIC FAILURES RELATED TO THE FAULTY ENGINE BLOCKS IN THESE HONDA CIVICS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25-30 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALSO HEARD AN ABNORMAL SOUND IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT.

FINDLAY HONDA HENDERSON (933 AUTO SHOW DR, HENDERSON, NV 89014, (702) 381-4926) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THE ODOR OF SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND THEN TOWED TO MEL RAPTON HONDA (3630 FULTON AVE, SACRAMENTO, CA 95821, (916) 436-8364). THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

WE BOUGHT A 2006 HONDA CIVIC IN 2013, ONLY TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP NOT DISCLOSE THE WARRANTY EXTENSION PUT OUT ON THE CAR IN 2010. WE WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT THAT CAR, AND BOUGHT ANOTHER. TERRIBLY DANGEROUS THE HAVE AN ENGINE BLOCK CRACK. THE BLOCK DID CRACK IN DECEMBER 2019. AMERICAN HONDA WILL DO NOTHING. PASSED THE WARRANTY EXTENSION.. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SAFETY RECALL. THE CAR WITH ONLY 129,000 IS GARBAGE AND WE ARE OUT MONEY. WE WILL NEVER BUY HONDA AGAIN. WE'VE BOUGHT AT LEAST 10 IN OUR 27 YEAR MARRIAGE. THE CRACKING COULD HAVE EXPLODED THE ENGINE!

IM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT ANOTHER RECALL ON A SIMILAR MODEL HAS RECIEVED THE DC-DC CONVERTER HAS A PROBLEM CHARGING THE 12V BATTERY CAUSING ENGINE FAILURE, POWER FAILURE , STEARING FAILURE AND ABS FAILURE. I AM UNABLE TO TURN ON HAZARD LIGHTS BECAUSE OF IT ALSO BATTERY WILL TAKE U JUMP BUT WILL NOT KEEP THE CHARGE IN THE BATTERY. I WAS DRIVING HOME AND ON A FLAT STREET THE CAR WAS LOSING ALL INSTREMENT LIGHTS THE POWER STEARING LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS THE BATTERY LIGHT THE ABS LIGHT AND THE IMS LIGHT. I HAD TO FORCE THE WHEEL TO TURN TO A SAFE LOCATION DUE TO BEING UNABLE TO TURN ON ANY WARNING LIGHTS. I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING IN CITY CONDITIONS. I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY MY VIN NUMBER DOES NOT MATCH THE RECALLED ONE.

THE 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS A TOTAL LOSS AT A MINOR ACCIDENT. IT HAS BEEN DISPOSED IN THE SUMMER 2019. THANK YOU, [XXX] MY INFORMATION IS [XXX] IF YOU NEED TO VERIFY OR CONTACT ME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I OWN A HONDA CIVIC THAT FALLS UNDER HONDA'S TSB 10-048. (2006-2009 ENGINE CRACK DUE TO A FAULTY PRODUCTION OF WEAK ENGINE BLOCKS) HONDA WILL NOT HONOR ANY SORT OF REMEDY BEYOND THEIR SECRET 10 WARRANTY FROM DATE OF PRODUCTION TO REPLACING THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A FAULTY PRODUCT! HONDA NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT AND CALL THE ISSUE WHAT IT REALLY IS, A RECALL!!

MICU FUSE BLOCK WITH BODY CONTROL MODULE 2265245 WENT OUT AND I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED, IT WAS STAYING IN THE "ON" POSITION SO IT DRAINED EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL (BATTERY) WOULDN'T START, WAS STUCK IN "PARK" NOTHING ELECTRICAL WOULD WORK INCLUDING THE "KEY"

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. I WAS DRIVING IT HOME AND NOTICED THE HEAT RISING. GOT IT TOWED HOME AND THEN TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN INFORMED ME ABOUT THE ISSUE I NOW HAVE. TOLD THAT A CAN GET A NEW MOTOR. I CALLED HONDA TO BE TOLD THAT THEY EXTENDED THE FACTORY RECALL FOR 10YRS. AND WITH IT BEING 2019 ITS BEEN OUT OF DATE FOR 3 YRS NOW. SO ITS GOING TO COST ME MONEY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT THEY KNEW WAS CAUSING ISSUES FOR FOLKS.

ENGINE LEAKING COOLANT HONDA DEALER SAID BLOCK IT CRACKED. FOUND OUT LATER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 TO 2009. HONDA DEALER NOR HONDA CORP EVER NOTIFIED ME. THEY KNOWINGLY SOLD AND SERVICED MY CAR JUST RUNNING OUT THE CLOCK. I HAVE BEEN RIDING HONDA'S BEFORE I WAS DRIVING THEM GOING BACK THE THE 60'S. I HAVE TWO HONDA CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY NOW. MY COMPLAINT IS MORE THE THE COMPANY AND DEALER THEN WITH THE PRODUCT. I COULD NOT SELL THIS CAR TO ANYBODY NOW NOR SHOULD HAVE YOU. I STILL BELIEVE YOU MAKE A DEPENDABLE AND DURABLE PRODUCT BUT AM NO LONGER A ONE STOP SHOPPER.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND HONDA WOULD REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY IF IT WAS LEAKING. NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND ENGINE BLOCK STARTS LEAKING. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. ALL OF THESE AFFECTED ENGINES SHOULD BE REPLACED NOW!!! OR HONDA SHOULD BUY THE CAR BACK. NOW I'M WITHOUT A CAR AND STILL OWE MONEY. I CANNOT AFFORD THE $6,000 TO REPLACE THIS ENGINE. I CAN AFFORD 10%, BUT HONDA WILL NOT EVEN OFFER ANY DISCOUNT TO REPLACE AN INFERIOR PRODUCT THAT THEY KNEW HAD PROBLEMS.

MY 18 YEAR OLD SON WAS OUT OF TOWN WAS ON HIS WAY HOME ON A HIGHWAY. HIS HONDA CIVIC'S A/C BEGAN TO BE LESS AND LESS COOL. THEN HIS TEMPERATURE GAUGE QUICKLY ROSE AS FAR IN THE RED THAT IT COULD GO. HE PULLED OVER AND CALLED US. WE WENT TO PICK HIM UP. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF A LEAK UNDER HIS CAR BUT THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LOW. WE FILLED IT UP AND DROVE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY WE CHECKED THE ANTIFREEZE LEVEL AND IT WAS VERY LOW AGAIN WITH NO SIGN OF ANYTHING UNDER THE CAR. WE TOOK THE CAR IN AND THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LEAKING INTO THE OIL. WE HAD ONE OF THE CIVICS THAT HAD THE KNOWN ISSUE OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING AND THE ENGINE BLOCKS WERE CRACKING AROUND THE 100,000 MILE MARK. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN POTENTIALLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS MY SON DROVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY OFTEN FOR SCHOOL. HONDA IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFAULT BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THAT CLAIM. BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN SOONER, DOES NOT MAKE THE DEFECT LESS DANGEROUS. MY SON WAS NOT INJURED BECAUSE HE MADE A INTELLIGENT DECISION ABOUT AN ISSUE THAT WASN'T RIGHT. I WORRY FOR THOSE THAT TAKE THE CHANCE. NO ONE WANTS THEIR CHILD STRANDED AFTER DARK BECAUSE OF SOMETHING THAT HONDA KNOWS IS A PROBLEM BUT WASH THEIR HANDS OF IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN THEIR TIME FRAME. THESE VEHICLES SHOULD NOT BE ON THE ROAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATED AUTOMATICALLY TWICE. THE CONTACT REACTIVATED THE CRUISE CONTROL EACH TIME. ALSO, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND, SOON AFTER, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, BUT THEN REGAINED CONTROL AND PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND NO VISIBLE DAMAGE OTHER THAN A CRACKED WINDSHIELD. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 278,000.

TWICE WHILE DRIVING THE BOLTS TO THE TORQUE MOUNT AND ENGINE BROKE. AND THE CARS ENGINE FELL ON THAT SIDE. MAKING VERY LOUD SOUND AND THE CAR STOPED NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE. BOTH TIMES IT HAPPENED ON RESIDENTIAL STREET. HAD IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. THERE WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY CAUSED A VERY DANGEROUS LIFE THREATENING COLLISION. WENT TO PICK A PART LOOKING FOR THE BOLTS. DOING SO FOUND OTHER CARS THERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

PREMATURE WEAR AND CUPPING OF TIRES RESULTING IN UNSTABLE DANGEROUS TIRE PERFORMANCE AND LOUD DISTRACTING NOISE APPARENTLY DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN UPPER CONTROL ARM DESIGN.

THE ENGINE BLOCKED CRACKED. IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT. TSB 10-048. I AM OUTSIDE OF THE HONDA WARRANTY AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE CAR IS NOW VIRTUALLY WORTHLESS. I NOTICED A COOLANT SMELL. I STOPPED THE CAR AND SAW COOLANT LEAKING OUT. I TOOK TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THEY VERIFIED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE HONDA DEALER TO VERIFY THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE HONDA DEALER VERIFIED THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA OF AMERICA REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. BASICALLY I AM OUT OF LUCK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE SHE WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE FRONT DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT IMPACT. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE SIDEWALK. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISES AND TRAUMA INJURIES WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HER RESIDENCE WHERE AN APPRAISER DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS AND TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A SALVAGE LOT. THE CONTACT CALLED LOCAL DEALER KELLY HONDA LOCATED AT 540 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA 01905, (781) 595-5252, WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING I CAME TO A STOP SIGN. SMELLED ANTIFREEZE AND SAW THAT MY TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS HIGH. I PULLED OVER AND THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING.I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO SHOP TO FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN MY ENGINE BLOCK. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. NO COOLANT LEAKS OR LOW COOLANT OBSERVED. JUST HAD OIL CHANGE THE WEEK BEFORE AND MECHANIC SAID THAT EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I HAVE MAINTAINED THE CAR REGULARLY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I FOUND THAT HONDA HAS KNOW ABOUT THIS SINCE 2013. I NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE OR WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALER FOR RECALL ON AIRBAGS AND SUN VISOR AND NO ONE EVER MENTIONED ANYTHING ABOUT A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA SAID THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR REPAIR BECAUSE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I WASN'T EVEN AWARE OF THIS WARRANTY AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES WITH COOLANT LEAK OR OVERHEATING TO EVEN CAUSE CONCERN. THEY ARE PUTTING A REBUILD ENGINE IN AT MY EXPENSE OVER $3000. I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE. I NEED A CAR TO GET TO WORK.

COMPLAINT: SRS LIGHT ILLUMINATED - CAUSE 32-1-X (X=0-9/A-F) OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE IN THE RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR. REPAIR IS NOT COVERED BY HONDA BECAUSE "RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR (IN THE SEAT, NOT THE DASH) NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY EXTENSION" - REPAIR ESTIMATE QUOTED AT "AROUND $1,200" AT THIS POINT, THE ONLY ISSUE IS THE LIGHT IS ON. THIS IS TRUE ANYTIME THE IGNITION IS IN THE ON POSITION REGARDLESS OF VEHICLE DISPOSITION. I OPENED A CASE WITH HONDA USA (CASE NUMBER 09737616, AND THEY DENIED COVERAGE.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ENGINE. THEY STOPPED IT AT 10 YES AND MINE HAD FAILED AT 11 YRS. IT WAS A KNOWN MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. YET WILL DO NOTHING AFTER 10 YRS. THIS IS WRONG!..IT IS THE ENGINE THE MAIN COMPONENT THAT RUNS THE CAR. THERE SHOULD BE NO LIMIT PUT ON THE LENGTH OF THIS RECALL WHEN THEY KNOW THEY ARE AT FAULT FOR SUCH A DEFECT. YOU CAN'T RUN A CAR WITHOUT AN ENGINE..PEOPLE KEEP THERE CARS LONGER THESE DAYS . I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD COVER THIS INDEFINITELY! .I GOT NO HELP AT ALL FROM THE DEALER AND HAD TO REPLACE ENGINE AND RADIATOR BECAUSE IT ALSO RUINED THAT.

CAR OVERHEATED AND CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK ON DRIVE TO WORK THROUGH TOWN. IT WAS A SUDDEN, OVERHEAT AND THE CAR STALLED. THE CAR HAD BEEN SERVICED BY HONDA ~2 MONTHS EARLIER. CAR HAD BEEN REGULARLY MAINTAINED BY HONDA, FOLLOWING SUGGESTED SERVICE SCHEDULE. HONDA KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BLOCK AS I PURCHASED CAR NEW IN 2006. CAR ONLY HAD 103,000 MILES ON IT.

CRACKED ENGINE AND IS NOT LEAKING COOLANT. NO DAMAGE WAS CAUSED. HONDA HAS POOR CRAFTSMANSHIP OF PARTS AND FAILED UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDIPTION. NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WITH A NEW ENGINE.

I PURCHASED MY CAR FROM A HONDA DEALERSHIP BACK IN 2014 AND AM THE SECOND OWNER. I WAS NEVER TOLD ABOUT THE CHANCE OF THE BLOCK CRACKING OR THAT HONDA WILL ONLY WARRANTY IT TILL 10 YEARS PAST ORIGINAL PURCHASE BECAUSE IF I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE NEVER GOT THE CAR KNOWING THAT INFO. THE CAR HAS ONLY 160,000 MILES AND I GET REGULAR OIL CHANGES DONE AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP.

I WAS TOLD MY CAR NEEDS AN INFLATOR BUT THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL. WHY DOES THIS CAR HAVE AN AIRBAG ISSUE THAT IS NOT COVERED? 802 HONDA, IN MONTPELIER VT HAS REPLACED THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT BUCKLE TWICE AND EACH TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES OUT BUT NOW THEY SAY IT NEEDS A RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR IN THE SEAT WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL AND THEY GAVE ME A REPAIR ESTIMATE (RANGE) OF $1,000 TO $1,500. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD THEREFORE BE COVERED BY RECALL. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VISORS WHICH FALL INTO THE LINE OF SIGHT WHEN DRIVING AS A RESULT OF SPLITTING APART WHICH SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED BUT THERE WAS AN EXPIRATION ON THAT RECALL. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THE SAME REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CAR IS SIX YEARS OLD OR 16 AND REGARDLESS OF THE MILEAGE SO THIS TOO SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

ALL 4 OF MY MICHELIN TIRES ARE SPLITTING IN THE SIDEWALLS (SHOULDER). THEY HAVE NOT GONE FLAT, BUT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE AT HIGH SPEEDS. I COMPLAINED TO MICHELIN AND THEY AGREED THAT IT WAS A DEFECT, BUT REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT SUCH AS CONTACT YOU OR ANNOUNCE A RECALL. THEY ARE "DEFENDER" TIRES DOT APWC 113X 2312. SIZE 205 55 16.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA KNOWINGLY ALLOWED CUSTOMERS WARRANTY TO EXPIRE DESPITE KNOWING THIS IS A LIFETIME ISSUE. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A CITY STREET AS IT BEGAN TO OVER HEAT THEN PULLED OVER AND REALIZED THE CAR WAS LEAKING.

CAR HAS EXCESSIVE VIBRATING WHEN AT IDLE, AND WHEN PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE, STEERING ALSO VIBRATES MORE THAN NECESSARY.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACK. HONDA MADE A DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCK AND LEAKS COOLANT. THEY KNEW ABOUT PROBLEM AND ONLY OFFERED A 10 YEAR WARRANTY, LEAVING THE REST OF CUSTOMERS OUT.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACK! I AM THE OWNER OF A 2006 HONDA CIVIC LX COUPE AND MY ENGINE BLOCK HAS JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED BY A LOCAL HONDA DEALER SINCE WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A RADIATOR LEAK TURNED INTO MY WORST NIGHTMARE. THEY TOLD ME THAT MY ENGINE BLOCK HAD A CRACK IN IT THUS NOT BEING ABLE TO RETAIN RADIATOR FLUID. HE TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY ROUGHLY $4500US FOR THE REPAIR OF MY ENGINE. MY LOCAL DEALER ALSO TOLD ME THAT THEIR WAS AN UNPUBLISHED RECALL ON THESE ENGINES BUT THAT I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY.. I HAD NO IDEA THEIR WAS AN UNPUBLISHED RECALL ON 2006 TO 2011 HONDA VEHICLES. WELL APPARENTLY MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 3 YEARS. MY DISPUTE IS THAT HONDA FAILED TO LET IT'S CUSTOMERS KNOW THAT THEY INDEED FOUND ISSUES WITH THESE (06-11) ENGINES. I WOULD LIKE TO START A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA TO HAVE THESE ENGINE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. I ONLY HAVE 106000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. I ONLY DROVE ROUGHLY 7 TO 8 THOUSAND MILE PER YEAR. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THESE ENGINES FAIL AT ABOUT 90000 TO 110000 MILES. WHERE WAS MY RECALL LETTER. EVEN AFTER TAKING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE OR REPAIR AT MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER THEY FAILED TO ADVISE ME OF THIS ISSUE (RECALL). PLEASE HELP ANYONE.

MY AXLE BROKE IN HALF BASICALLY, AND MY MECHANIC SAID HE'S ONLY SEEN THAT ONE OTHER TIME AND IT WAS ALSO IN A HONDA CIVIC. ALSO, TWO OTHER PEOPLE WHO WORK ON CARS SAID THEY'VE NEVER SEEN THIS, THAT IT USUALLY FAILS AT THE CV JOINT AND SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WAS A DEFECT. I WAS GOING FROM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND (MANUAL TRANSMISSION), AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WOULDN'T GO, AND THERE WAS A CLUNKING NOISE. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC'S WHICH COST ME $167, AND THE REPAIR IS GOING TO BE APPROXIMATELY $200. I DO NOT HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF EITHER RIGHT NOW AS IT IS IN THE SHOP AS I WRITE THIS WAITING FOR THE PART. I JUST FELT THAT SINCE THIS SEEMS TO BE OUT OF THE ORDINARY IN TERMS OF HOW THIS FAILURE USUALLY OCCURS, I THOUGHT I SHOULD REPORT IT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE SPUTTERED THEN LOST ALL POWER. IT WAS TOWED TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND THE COST OF REPAIRS WILL EXCEED THE VEHICLE'S WORTH.

MARCH 21, 2019 FOUND COOLANT LEAK ON DRIVEWAY COMING FROM 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE VEHICLE HAS CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK & LEAKING COOLANT. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 54,000 MILES, WELL KEPT AND MAINTAINED. DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUED IN 2013 & AGAIN IN 2015 FOR THIS PROBLEM. WARRANTY IS FOR 10 YEARS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. NO SUCH WARRANTY OR NOTICE MADE IT TO OWNERS ADDRESS. NO NEWS ARTICLES WERE MADE PUBLIC ABOUT THIS ISSUE. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA TO REQUEST ASSISTANCE DUE TO OUT OF WARRANTY OF THE VEHICLE. HONDA AMERICA ONLY OFFERED A DEDUCTIBLE TO REPAIR ENGINE AT $2,700.00. OWNER IS STILL APPEALING THIS AS THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT HONDA SHOULD OWN UP TO AT A 100%.

I HAVE HAD MY PASSAGES AIRBAG RECALLED TWICE AND EVER SINCE THE LAST TIME - THE AIRBAGS LIGHT GOES ON ALL THE TIME AND HONDA 1) CHARGES ME - 2 TIMES TO EVEN LOOK AT IT SINCE IT WASN'T A RECALL AND 2) WANT ME TO PAY TO FIX IT. IT A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND THEY CAUSE IT BY RECALLING IT TWICE AND WREAKING THE CONNECTION AND SAYS IT'S MY PROBLEM - PLEASE READ HONDA STRIVE BULLETIN 10-001 PUT OUT ON 12/12/10. THE SRS INDUCTOR COMES ON AND DTC 32-10 IS STORED - HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS!,,

EXCESSIVE COOLANT LEAK CRACKED BLOCK NON DRIVABLE LESS THAN 140OOO MILES DISAPPOINTING NO WARNING WHATSOEVER

I HAVE 2006 HONDA AND ITS HAVE( IMA ) CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON SND I CALLED FOR RECALL BUT UNFORTUNATELY HONDA DOESN'T HELP ME THEY SAID YOUR WARRANTY IS EXPIRED I HAVE 149K MILLAGE ON

THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACK IS A KNOW ISSUE THAT HONDA HAS RECOGNIZED, BUT THEY ONLY ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON. VEHICLES STILL EXPERIENCE THINS FAILURE MINE INCLUDED, BUT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A REPAIR THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS AT FAULT FOR. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT IN THE HOPES THAT IT WILL BRING THIS TO ATTENTION SO A RECALL/OR AN ADDITIONAL EXTENSION CAN BE PUT INTO TO PLACE TO COVER THOSE STILL BEING AFFECTED BY THIS FAULT.

TOOK VEHICLE IN BECAUSE WHEEL BEARINGS WERE MAKING NOISE - WAS TOLD IT WAS THE REAR WHEEL BEARINGS - THERE IS A RECALL FOR THESE - THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE THE BEARINGS BECAUSE ANOTHER SHOP HAD PREVIOUSLY REPLACED THE FRONT ONES - WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE REAR BEARINGS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO JIM RIEHL'S FRIENDLY HONDA (18900 HALL RD, CLINTON TWP, MI 48038, (586) 412-9600) WHERE THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC'S DIAGNOSIS WAS CONFIRMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND MENTIONED A TEN YEAR ENGINE BLOCK LEAK WARRANTY. THE DEALER OFFERED THE CONTACT $2,000 TOWARDS THE REPAIR COST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000. *DT*JB

THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED (ACCORDING TO DEALER) EXACTLY LIKE AS DESCRIBED IN SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048 WHICH THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR, BUT WHICH A BUNCH OF US OWNERS ARE OUTSIDE OF NOW. SO MY CAR IS GARBAGE UNLESS I SPEND 2-7K FIXING A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I STARTED OVERHEATING AS I WAS DRIVING HOME AS AND LIMPED HOME TRYING TO NOT LET THE ENGINE GET TOO HOT (DIDN'T WORK).

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK- MY ENGINE HAS BEEN LEAKING RADIATOR FLUID AND I JUST FOUND OUT THAT IT HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. FROM MY RESEARCH ON THE WEB, IT APPEARS THERE WAS A DESIGN/MANUFACTURING DEFECT ON THE BLOCK, CAUSING A CRACK.

CAR ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND CASED ENGINE TO OVERHEAT LEAKED COOLANT ALL OVER THE ENGINE AND ROAD. 110K MILES ON THE CAR, ORIGINAL OWNER, ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AND CAR RARELY EVER SAW OVER 4K RPM.. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER DEFECT, YET THERE IS NO RECALL ISSUED. YES, HONDA ISSUED A 10 YEAR 'EXTENSION' OF A WARRANTY AND CLAIMS TO HAVE NOTIFIED OWNERS VIA MAIL WHEN IT WAS OFFICIALLY 'ANNOUNCED' BACK IN 2014. I UNDERSTAND 'NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR' FROM AN OLDER CAR AND I WOULD EXPECT TO OWN THE COSTS FOR REPAIR... BUT AN ENGINE BLOCK CRACKING DUE TO A KNOWN MANUFACTURER DEFECT RENDERING A CAR UNUSABLE, AND HONDA EXPECTS YOU TO PAY 2600-5K TO MAKE THEIR CARS DERIVABLE AGAIN? THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL AS IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT RESULTS IN ENGINE FAILURE AND OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING (POTENTIAL LOSS OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE, TRAFFIC HAZARD, FIRE,ETC).

COOLANT LEAKING RESULTING FROM A CRACKED ENGINE BOX. SEE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048. DIAGNOSTIC MADE IN HONDA AUTHORIZED DEALER. HONDA ASK $6,950.00 TO REPAIR THEIR BAD MANUFACTURED ENGINE BOX.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED BY HONDA AS A RECALL WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS A LEAK YET. 10 YEAR WARRANTY ONLY FOR A LEAK DURING THAT TIME DOESN'T MAKE THINGS RIGHT. AND MOST PEOPLE NEVER GOT THE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROBLEM UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE. PEOPLE BUY HONDA BECAUSE THEY HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE LONGEVITY OF THE MAIN COMPONENTS, LIKE THE ENGINE, OF THESE VEHICLES. WHY IS IT FAIR THAT OTHERS GOT A FREE ENGINE REPLACED BUT OURS LASTED A LITTLE LONGER, MAYBE DUE TO BETTER CARE OF THE VEHICLE, AND WE GET NOTHING FOR THE SAME DEFECT? MAKE THIS RIGHT, HONDA!

I'M COMPLETELY DEVISTATED. MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC STARTED LEAKING ANTIFREEZE. WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AN EASY REPLACEMENT FOR AN OLD PART OR SOMETHING, WRONG. OUR ENGINE CRACKED BECAUSE OF BAD CRAFSTMANSHIP. WE ARE PAST THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY BY 2-3 YEARS. THIS SHOULD STILL BE COVERED! I PLANNED ON OUR KIDS DRIVING THIS CAR AND KEEPING IT FOR A LONG LONG TIME! WE CAN'T AFFORD $7000 NEW ENGINE! THIS ENGINE SHOULD HAVE LASTED A LOT LONGER! I'M SO UPSET THAT THIS IS NOT COVERED STILL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE DRIVER WAS DRIVING, THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED. THE CONTACT COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COGGIN HONDA OF ORLANDO DEALER (11051 S ORANGE BLOSSOM TRAIL, ORLANDO, FL 32837, (407) 792-1211), WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD A SMALL CRACK CAUSING ANTIFREEZE LEAKS AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE WAS EXPIRED AND DID NOT OFFER ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048 ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND MY ENGINE STARTED TO GET REALLY HOT I LOST MY POWER STEERING AND MY BRAKES ALL AT ONCE BECAUSE THE ENGINE OVERHEATED, I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND FILLED THE COOLANT HOWEVER THAT DID NOT WORK AND SO I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND FOUND OUT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE I WAS N THE HIGHWAY AND HAD MERE SECONDS OF LOSING POWER STEERING TO PULL OFF ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND GET OUT OF THE CAR AS SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE ISSUE IS THAT THE CAR WAS BOUGHT IN 2006 AND BECAUSE OF JUST AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WAS ONLY 10 YEARS I NOW HAVE TO PUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS INTO GETTING A NEW ENGINE.

2006 HONDA CIVIC CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DESIGN PROBLEM WITH DOOR FRAME THAT OBSTRUCTS VIEW OF DRIVER. *AS *JS

GOT OFF THE ROAD FROM NY TO MD LAST NIGHT AND NOTICED A BIT OF A COOLANT SMELL. NOT A BIG DEAL, BUT WAS GOING TO TAKE IT INTO JIFFY LUBE FOR AN OIL CHANGE ANYWAYS, WOULD HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT. TURNS OUT THAT IT WAS A LEAK FROM THE ENGINE BLOCK. ALSO TURNS OUT THAT HONDA HAD NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH THIS ERA OF CARS AND DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL, ONLY A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048, WHEREAS OWNERS WERE COVERED WITHIN 10 YEARS OF PURCHASE, REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE. SINCE THE PROBLEM DID NOT MANIFEST ITSELF WITHIN THOSE 10 YEARS, I WOULD HAVE HAD NO WAY OF KNOWING TO BRING IT IN (DESPITE BEING SERVICED AT HONDA DEALERSHIPS IN THE INTERIM). THE CAR ONLY HAS 63K MILES ON IT AND IT'S PATENTLY ABSURD TO THINK THAT A DEFECT THAT THEY NOTICED HAS AN EXPIRATION DATE ON IT, PUNISHING LOW VOLUME DRIVERS--AS IN, HAD WE DRIVEN MORE FREQUENTLY, THE DEFECT WOULD'VE REVEALED ITSELF EARLIER, PERHAPS WITHIN THE WINDOW, AND PERHAPS SAVING US THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. PLEASE CONSIDER THIS AND URGE HONDA TO CHANGE ITS POLICY REGARDING THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM WITH THIS ERA OF CIVICS.

THESE CARS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO GET A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. HONDA HAS HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO MAKE AND MODEL HAVING A LOT OF THESE CARS ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING WHILE DRIVING, WHICH THIS CAN CAUSE A MAJOR CAR ACCIDENT. BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THESE ENGINE BLOCKS ARE GOING TO CRACK IT CAN BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAUSE CAR ACCIDENTS INJURE THEM OR OTHERS. HONDA SHOULD BE REPLACING ALL THE 2006 HONDA CIVIC ENGINES NOT JUST DOING EXTENDED WARRANTY. BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF THESE HONDAS WHO ARE HAVING THEIR ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKED RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTY IS UP. IT IS NOT RIGHT 2 NOT DO ANYTHING FOR OTHERS WHO GET A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND LOSE THEIR CAR WHEN HONDA SPECIFICALLY KNOWS IS MAKE AND MODEL HAS MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE ENGINES NO MATTER HOW MANY MILES WE HAVE ON THESE CARS DUE TO THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING AND COULD BE POSSIBLY CAUSING A CAR ACCIDENT ON A FREEWAY HIGHWAY OR A MAIN STREET SOMEWHERE WHICH CAN KILL THEIR SELF OR OTHER PARTIES ON THE ROADS. IF HONDA KNOWS IS SPECIFICALLY IS A DEFECT IN 2006 HONDA CIVIC ENGINES THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S THERE FAULT NOT THE OWNER'S FAULT. THIS IS HONDAS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THEIR DEFECTS THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF, WHEN THEY KNOW THIS IS A DEFECT. YES THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD , DUE TO THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING AT ANY POSSIBLE TIME WHILE DRIVING OUR CARS. NO MY CAR HAS NOT HAD A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK YET, BUT I DO WORRY WHEN AND IF MINE DOES I CAN'T GO MAKE HONDA FIX THERE DEFECT

MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BACK RIGHT SIDE CAME LOOSE AND MADE MY SEAT ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. ALSO MY BAR UNDERNEATH THE SEAT BROKE SO I COULDN'T ADJUST MY SEAT. DOES BEEN A COMMON COMPLAINT AN ISSUE OF A DEFECT FROM HONDA ARE 2006 HONDA CIVICS. VERY DANGEROUS FOR A DRIVERS SEAT TO BE LOOSE WHILE DRIVING YOUR CAR. WHEN THE DRIVER SEAT IS LOOSE IT CAN CAUSE A DRIVER TO CRASH AN INJURED OTHERS BY BEING DISTRACTED WHILE DRIVING. IF YOU CANNOT ADJUST THE SEAT TO THE PROPER POSITION IT CAN CAUSE THE DRIVER TO NOT BE ABLE TO REACH THE PEDALS PROPERLY SO THEY CAN DRIVE SAFELY AND HIT THE BRAKE SAFELY TO STOP THEIR VEHICLE SO THEY DON'T CAUSE A CAR ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. I WAS PARKS AT THE TIME OUT DOING STUFF AND WHEN I CAME BACK TO MY CAR TO GET READY TO LEAVE IS WHEN I NOTICED MY BAR UNDERNEATH THE CAR BROKE AND I COULDN'T ADJUST THE SEAT WHEN I WAS TRYING TO ADJUST IT TO DRIVE HOME. MY CAR SEE STARTED BECOMING LOOSE ONE DAY WHEN I WENT TO GET IN MY CAR TO LEAVE AND DRIVE I NOTICED THE SEAT WAS WOBBLY THAT MORNING, I HAD NO CLUE WHY CUZ I NEVER HAD A SEAT BECOME LOOSE AND WOBBLY LIKE THAT BEFORE OUT OF ALL THE CARS I FOUND.

THE KEY CAN FALL OUT/BE REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE IT IS RUNNING OR TRAVELING. THIS IS EXTREMELY ALARMING. THIS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE. THERE WAS NEVER ANY COMMUNICATION WITH ME AFTER THE FIRST COMPLAINT ON 5/29/2018. I NEED HELP WITH THIS, AND WILL KEEP ESCALATING SINCE THIS MATTER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR AN INVESTIGATION.

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE HAD AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON SEVERAL TIMES. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP IT IS AN INFLATOR CODE AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR A $1,200 REPAIR. ON TWO OCCASIONS THE SEATBELT WAS REPLACED. SOMEDAYS MY LIGHT IS ON, OTHERS IT IS NOT. THERE IS A RECALL AND THERE IS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN BUT MY CAR IS "NOT IMPACTED" THAT IS UNTRUE. IT ABSOLUTELY IS. THE VEHICLE IS PRESENTING THE SAME CODES AS THOSE IN THESE BULLETINS AND RECALLS AND IT SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT HONDA'S EXPENSE, NOT MINE. FURTHERMORE, THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR IS BROKEN BUT IT WAS NOT REPAIRED BEFORE THE END DATE OF THE RECALL (I DID NOT OWN IT THEN) AND NOW THAT I OWN IT I AM TOLD IT IS NOT ELIGIBLE. I CONTEST, THE ISSUE IS AS MUCH OF A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD IN 2018 AS IT WAS WHEN IT WAS ISSUED. THIS TOO SHOULDE BE REPLACED AT HONDA'S EXPENXE NOT MY OWN. THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF AT WILL WHEN MOVING, ON CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY, TURNING OR GOING STRAIGHT. THE SUN VISOR DOES NOT GO OUT OF MY LINE OF SIGHT AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE. THIS TOO HAPPENS ANYTIME, ANY WHERE, AT ANY SPEED, AND ON ANY ROAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE ACCELERATED THROUGH A RED LIGHT AND "T-BONED" THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THERE WERE MINOR INJURIES, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE DEALER (MARTIN HONDA (298 EAST CLEVELAND AVE, NEWARK, DELAWARE 19711, (302) 738-5200) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2017 PER AN UNKNOWN TAKATA RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 132,000.

CAR HEATING UP DUE AN ENGINE BLOCK CRACK COOLANT LEAK.

THE ENGINE BLOCK ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC CRACKED, AND THE CAR BROKE DOWN TODAY. I WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY DAUGHTER FROM RUNNING ERRANDS AND IT JUST DIED. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A SHOP. JUST GOT THE CALL SAYING THE BLOCK IS CRACKED, THAT IT MEANS A NEW ENGINE, THAT THERE WAS A 10 YEAR WARRANTY, BUT THAT I'M OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY. HONDA KNOWS CERTAIN YEARS OF CIVICS HAVE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, BUT THOSE OF US WHOSE CIVICS MADE IT LONGER BEFORE THE DEFECT KILLED THE ENGINE NOW BASICALLY HAVE SCRAP METAL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IMMACULATELY MAINTAINED AND I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS.

THE ENGINE BLOCK HAS A HAIRLINE CRACK AND THEY WONT COVER IT AS IT IS OVER THEIR "10 YEAR MARK " I AM A SECOND OWNER AND I BOUGHT THE CAR IN PERFECT CONDITION. FAST FORWARD A FEW YEARS LATER, AND I DO ALL OF MY MAINTENANCE, AND I WAKE UP AND THERES COOLANT ALL OVER MY GARAGE FLOOR. AND WHEN I CHANGED THE OIL IT SEEMED SLIMEY. I TOOK IT IN TO HONDA TO GET IT CHECKED OUT AND THEY SAIDSINCE I AM OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD THEY ARE WILLING TO COVER 60% OF THE COSTS WHICH I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET $3200 ARE YOU KIDDING ME? FOR A DEFECT THAT WAS THERE FROM THE BEGINNING. I COULD REPLACE THE WHOLE ENGINE MYSELF FOR $1000. BUT ITS NOT MY PROBLEM. REGARDLESS OF THE MILES (170K) IVE HAD FORDS AND OLDER HONDAS THAT REACH WELL OVER 300K MILES AS LONG AS YOU TAKE CARE OF THEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY.

BEGAN OVERHEATING. HAD CHECKED OFTEN & NO PROBLEM FOUND. FINALLY MECHANIC SAID SMALL CRACK IN BLOCK AND ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NOT REPAIRED AS OF THIS COMPLAINT. I AM ORIGINAL OWNER AND HAVE TAKEN CARE OF MY VEHICLE WELL

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND BURNED WHILE DRIVING. CONSUMER TOLD ENGINE WARRANTY NO LONGER VALID BECAUSE IT PAST.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN 'DRIVE', THE KEY IS ABLE TO BE PULLED OUT OF THE IGNITION. CAN BE BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION

MY ' 06 HONDA CIVIC HAS APPROXIMATELY 158,000 MILES. IT HAS RECEIVED MANUFACTURER SPECIFIED MAINTENANCE. WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN MAY '18, I NOTICED IT WAS OVERHEATING. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL MAINTENANCE GARAGE. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THEY INFORMED ME THE THAT OVERHEATING WAS DUE TO A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A REOCCURRING ISSUE WITH THE YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. THEY PRINTED THE MANUFACTURES PROCESS FOR IDENTIFYING AND CAUSE AND THE PROCESS FOR REPLACING THE ENGINE. SUBSEQUENTLY, I INFORMED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP OF THE ISSUE, THEY SAID THE MY VEHICLE FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY THE PROVIDES COVERAGE/ ENGINE REPLACEMENT TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP CONDUCT THE OFFICIAL INSPECTION. THE INSPECTION COST IS 75.00 ALONE AND DOESN'T EVEN GUARANTEE THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION WILL EVEN LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE. THIS ISSUE IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO SAY THE LEAST.

ENGINE CONTINUES TO OVERHEAT, SMOKING WAS COMING OUT OF THE CAR. WE ADDED ANTIFREEZE HOWEVER IT KEPT OVERHEATING. WE WENT TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THE PIPES WERE SHOT, AND THAT HAD TO BE CHANGED AS WELL. RADIATOR GOT LOCKED

CRACKS IN THE ENGINE MOTOR BEHIND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND NEAR THE IGNITION WHICH IS CAUSING A SERIOUS COOLANT LEAK. PLUS, THE A/C IN THE CAR WON'T START, BUT HEAT WORKS

COOLANT IS LEAKING FROM A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. CAR IS 161K MILES AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. WHEN ON A TRIP FOR 3 MONTHS AND CAME BACK TO AN EMPTY RADIATOR. AFTER SERVICING THE RADIATOR STARTED NOTICING THE LEAKAGE.

VISORS BROKEN, RECALLED. CAUSING FACIAL INJUY, CLOSE ACCIDENTS

MY 2006 CIVIC SLOWED TO A CRAWL AND STARTED SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD ON THURSDAY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS OR PRECURSORS TO THIS EVENT. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO FIND A SAFE PLACE ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WITHOUT BEING STRUCK BY ANOTHER VEHICLE OR PRECIPITATING AN ACCIDENT. AAA TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC WHO RAN A COOLANT PRESSURE TEST WHICH REVEALED A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. I AM THE 2ND OWNER. THE VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT IN 2007 AS CERTIFIED FROM LOCAL DEALER. I WAS GIVEN NO NOTICE OF WARRANTY EXTENSION OR TSB 10-048. HAD I KNOWN, I WOULD HAVE SOLD THE VEHICLE BEFORE INCURRING THESE UNEXPECTED COSTS FOR AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC THAT HAS 55,000 ON IT AND IT DEVELOPED THE KNOW ISSUE OF THE CRACK IN THE ENGINE AND IS NOW LEAKING ANTIFREEZE FROM THE CRACK. HONDA DID A WARRANTY CAMPAIGN ON THIS KNOWN PROBLEM BUT ONLY FOR 10 YEARS. I CALLED HONDA CORP AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD I WAS BEYOND THE 10 YEAR MARK AND ON MY OWN FOR THE REPAIR. I FEEL THAT IF HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM THEN THEY SHOULD COVER THE COST AND MAKE IT A RECALL NOT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY CAMPAIGN. THIS CAR IS NOT DRIVEN AL LOT THAT WHY THE MILES ARE SO LOW. THIS HAPPENED AS MY SON WAS DRIVING TO SCHOOL ON A TOWN ROAD.

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE CAR OVERHEATED. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THE HONDA DEALER SAID THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKING WAS A KNOWN DEFECT BUT SINCE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, THEY COULDN'T FIX IT.

OUR ENGINE BLOCK IS CRACKED COOLANT LEAKING AND CAUSING OVERHEATING.

ON 3/3/18, AT 92000 MILES, THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED, CAUSING COOLANT TO LEAK. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR MANY 2006 TO 2009 HONDA CIVICS, AS HONDA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THIS TO 10 YEARS (UNLIMITED MILES) FROM THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE DATE. UNFORTUNATELY, IT SEEMS THAT THIS ISSUE TYPICALLY DOESN'T OCCUR UNTIL AFTER 90,000+ MILES, AND I DON'T DRIVE THE CAR THAT MANY MILES EACH YEAR TO REACH THE "DANGER ZONE" FOR THIS ISSUE WITHIN THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD.

VISOR UNCLIPPED NEAR THE HINGE AND DOESN'T STAY UP. THE VISOR SLOWLY DROPS DOWN OBSCURES MY VISION. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY, I WAS PARKED AND GETTING READY TO PULL AWAY FROM THE CURB.

HONDA CIVIC CRACKED ENGINE WE PURCHASED THE HONDA CIVIC FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND WERE NEVER APPRISED OF ANY WARRANTY EXTENSION IN 2010. IF WE HAD, WE WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. HONDA NOTIFIED US OF TWO OTHER RECALLS (AIRBAG, VISOR) BUT NEVER NOTIFIED US OF PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE. THE HONDA HAS BEEN SEEN AT THREE DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERSHIPS AND ALL REPAIRS/MAINTENANCE DONE AT THEM, BUT NEVER DID ANY OF THE THREE TELL US ABOUT THE ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED IT FROM WON'T PAY, EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE AWARE THAT THEY WERE SELLING US A DEFECTIVE CAR. SINCE THIS IS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT, IT SHOULD BE REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURE AND NOT THE OWNER. THE WARRANTY EXTENSION WAS FOR 10 YEARS. THIS CAR HAS 141,000 MILES OF WHICH WE ONLY PUT 37,000 ON IN THE LAST 7 YEARS THAT WE OWNED IT THIS CAR IS STILL IN GREAT CONDITION, BUT NOT WORTH MORE THAN $3,000 ON KELLY BLUE BOOK THE QUOTE FOR A NEW ENGINE WAS $5,766. THIS CONTINUES TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FACULTY AND UNSAFE VEHICLES. THE ENGINE CRACKED DUE TO DEFECTIVE MATERIALS AND NOT DUE TO THE OWNER.

ENGINE BLOCK IS CRACKED ..LEAKING COOLANT

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK OUTSIDE OF 10 YEAR RECALL BECOMES FULL RESPONSIBILITY OF OWNER. IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, IT SHOULD BE FULLY COVERED, REGARDLESS IF THE CAR IS OUTSIDE THE 10 YEAR PERIOD. HONDA IS USING THE COVERAGE PERIOD AS A COPOUT, ESPECIALLY AS I WAS NOT PREVIOUSLY NOTIFIED A RECALL.

MY CAR HIT 164,000 MILES AND I WAS ON MY WAY BACK HOME FROM WORK AND TOOK THE STREETS INSTEAD OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I SEE THE TEMPERATURE ELECTRONIC GAUGE ALMOST REACH THE MAX WHICH HAS NEVER HAPPENED SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR AND IT WAS MAINTAINED PROPERLY. I THEN PULLED OVER THE SIDE AND SMELLED ANTI FREEZE AND THOUGHT IMEDIATELY THAT IT WAS MY WATER PUMP SINCE I THOUGHT THAT IT COULDN'T BE THE MOTOR SINCE IT WAS NEVER ABUSED OR MAINTAINED INCORRECTLY BUT THEN I POPPED THE HOOD OPEN AND SAW A HAIRLINE CRACK ON THE ENGINE BLOCK AND KNEW THAT I WOULD HAVE TO AT LEAST STOP A FEW TIMES AND WAIT FOR THE ENGINE TO COOL DOWN AND DRIVE AGAIN TO MAKE IT HOME AND THAT MY CAR WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE BLOCK OR NEW ENGINE. I THEN RESEARCHED ONLINE TO SEE IF THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM OR IF IT WAS JUST MY CAR THAT HAD THIS PROBLEM AND SAW THAT IT WASN'T JUST MY CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM ON THEIR HONDA CIVIC AND I'M OUT OF LUCK SINCE MY CAR IS AN 06 AND THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY WON'T COVER IT ANYMORE AND NOW I WILL HAVE TO BE PAYING THIS DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCK REPAIR OUT OF MY OWN POCKET WHICH WON'T BE A CHEAP REPAIR THAT HONDA SHOULD HAVE AN UNLIMITED TIMEFRAME FOR THIS REPAIR SINCE THEY KNOW THAT IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART. I GOT LUCKY I WASN'T DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN DRIVING OTHERWISE IT MIGHT OF CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THIS WILL BE MY LAST HONDA I WILL BE BUYING EVER AGAIN DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. HOPEFULLY ONE DAY THERE WILL BE A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL AS I'M SURE WITHIN A FEW YEARS OTHER OWNERS OF THIS MODEL WILL END UP HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE AND THIS ISN'T A A FEW HUNDRED DOLLAR REPAIR BUT A FEW THOUSAND DOLLAR REPAIR. PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECALL SO THAT HONDA CAN FIX THIS COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, I GOT LUCKY NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME BUT I'M NOT SURE IF OTHERS WILL HAVE THE SAME LUCK I HAD OF NOT BEING IN ONE.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AT 95K MILES. KNOWN PROBLEM. HONDA WON'T COVER.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACK

EVAP CODE - EMISSIONS

VEHICLE IS LEAKING COOLANT. A RECALL AND EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS DONE BECAUSE HONDA KNEW OF AN ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKING. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2012, NO NOTICE WAS SENT TO ME ABOUT THE RECALL, HOWEVER, I AM A REGISTERED OWNER AS I RECEIVED THE RECALL FOR THE AIR BAGS. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD REPAIR MY VEHICLE AS I HAVE JUST BECOME AWARE OF THE RECALL AND THE CAR NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED. I'VE WAS DRIVING WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR OVERHEATED. THERE WAS NO COOLANT IN THE RADIATOR. PLEASE FORCE HONDA TO MAKE GOOD ON REPAIRING THEIR PRODUCT. RECALLS SHOULD NEVER EXPIRE PER YOUR SITE.

ENGINE BLOCK DEVELOPED CRACKS RESULTING IN COOLANT LEAK AND OVERHEATING. 130000 ORIGINAL MILES, I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. HONDA IS AWARE OF THE DESIGN PROBLEM BUT IS NOT WILLING TO DO A RECALL.

THE CAR WAS IN TRANSIT BETWEEN HOME AND LOCAL SHOPPING CENTER DURING XMAS WEEK OF 2017. AFTER 4MILES, THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR WENT OFF THE CHARTS FOR THE FIRST TIME. CAR WAS STOPPED, ALLOWED TO COOL DOWN - AND NOTE OF STEAM FROM UNDER BONNET, AND TOWED BACK HOME. TOOK IT THE HONDA DEALER WITHOUT DRIVING FURTHER (3MILES TO CAR CENTER). IN THIS TIME, TEMPERATURE INCREASE TO 3/4 OF GAUGE, AND WHEN WE LEFT, THERE WAS CLEAR BURRING ODOR. VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED, CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK NOTED - AND TOLD $4.6K TO FIX... AND THEN DETERMINED IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CIVIC.... BUT HONDA DID NOT DEAL WITH IT! ACCORDING TO HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/CIVIC/2006/ 22% OF ALL FAILURES ARE ENGINE, AND 78% OF THE ENGINE ISSUES ARE CRACKING IN THE POWER BLOCK. IT IS THE SINGLE MOST COMPLAINT ISSUE WITH 178 NHTSA COMPLAINTS FILED ON THE HONDA CIVIC 2006. INTERESTING TO NOTE, IT WAS NOT A SAFETY CRITICAL ISSUE FOR RECALL BY HONDA (BUT ITI IS A SEVERITY RATING OF 10 - WITH MULTIPLE CAR FIRES AND AT LEAST ONE CRASH INCIDENT REPORTED TO NHTSA), BUT WHEN IN THE DEALERSHIP HANDS, IT IS COMPOUNDED FOR SAFETY REASONS! SPEAKING TO THE RECALL CENTER, THEY ARE IN POSITION TO DO ANYTHING. IF YOU WANT A FILE COMPLAINT - YOU NEED A CASE RECORD TO BE FILED. IT IS THEN REVIEWED BY A JUDGE PANEL TO ASSESS WHETHER HONDA BELIEVES THE ISSUE IS LIFE OR DEATH, AND UNDER OBLIGATED TO REPLACE A KNOWN FAULTY DEVICE. HONDA IS REPUTED TO HAVE QUALITY OVER COST - BUT CLEARLY, COST OVER LIFE IS IGNORED. AS A MATTER OF RECORD, IN 2010, THE HONDA DEALERS WERE TOLD OF THE FAULTY PART, BUT DON'T DO A MANDATORY CHECK (APPARENTLY PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE IS NOT PART OF A SERVICE, NOR IS IT A REQUEST FOR SERVICE, AND THERE IS NO COMMUNICATION BY DEALERSHIP TO ADVISE OF ISSUE). ATTACHED IS MORE DETAIL FOR REVIEW. IN ESSENCE, HONDA REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT IS THEIR FAULT, AND TAKE NO BLAME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE VEHICLE, THE DOORS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WOULD NOT UNLOCK AFTER THE KEY WAS INSERTED. IN ADDITION, THE ALARM SYSTEM DID NOT WORK AND THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO SWITCH THE GEAR SHIFTER TO THE PARK POSITION. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 300,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO OVERHEAT. HAD THE ENGINE FAILED THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A CATASTROPHIC EVENT. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM AND OTHERS HAVE NOT BEEN AS LUCKY AS I HAVE. HONDA IS WELL AWARE OF THIS MASSIVE PROBLEM AND HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE ENGINE BLOCK TO 10 YEARS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. HONDA WILL NOT RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM IF YOUR VEHICLE IS OVER THE 10 YEAR TIME FRAME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE UNDER RECALL REGARDLESS OF AGE AND MILEAGE. IT'S SHOULD BE ABOUT SAFETY FIRST. CURRENTLY HONDA ONLY RECOGNIZES THE PROBLEM AS A WARRANTY ISSUE NUMBER 10-048

I HAVE CONTACTED CORPORATE HONDA AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TRYING TO GET INFORMATION PERTAINING TO A REAR WHEEL BEARING RECALL. CORPORATE HONDA'S RECORDS SHOW THE RECALL WAS COMPLETED BACK IN OCTOBER OF 2008 BUT DO NOT HAVE RECORDS OF ANY PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED. ALL OF THE SYMPTOMS I AM EXPERIENCING ARE EXACTLY WHAT IS OUTLINED IN THE RECALL BUT I AM BEING LED IN CIRCLES TRYING TO GET THIS RESOLVED. IT IS FRIGHTENING TO DRIVE AND DUE TO FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS I CAN NOT RISK THE INSPECTION FEE THAT I AM BEING TOLD I WILL HAVE TO PAY. IF NO PARTS ARE ON RECORD FOR BEING REPLACED THEN THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF WITHOUT QUESTION. CORPORATE HONDA NOR MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS SHOWN ANY CONCERN FOR MY SITUATION WHILE APPEARING TO DISMISS MY CONCERNS.

LAST WEEK I WAS CHANGING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID ON MY HONDA CIVIC AND NOTICED COOLANT LEAKING AND TURNED OUT THAT MY ENGINE BLOCK IS CRACKED AND LEAKING COOLANT. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND HONDA HAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048. I NEVER RECEIVED A LETTER ABOUT THIS. I CALLED HONDA AND TURNS OUT I WAS TOO LATE TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ERROR AND HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE CORRECTED PART. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR OUT OF MY POCKET AND EVEN IF I CAN I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE CHEAPEST ROUT AND BUY A SECOND HAND ENGINE AND I WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. IF CAN GET ANY HELP FORM YOU WITH THIS IT WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS SITUATION. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS WELL BECAUSE THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER AND I ALSO USE IT FOR THE THE RIDE SHARING PLATFORM UBER. THE ENGINE MAY BLOW UP WHILE I'M DRIVING SO THIS IS NOT SAFE AND HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY BEFORE ANYTHING HAPPENS. THANK YOU

ON 11/15/2017, I BOUGHT THE ABOVE VEHICLE FROM CONDEMI MOTOR COMPANY. I NOTICED COOLANT SMELL. I OPENED ENGINE COVER. FIRST THING I FOUND THE ANTI-FREEZE RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. I COOL THE RADIATOR AND TOPPED THE COOLANT ALSO THE RESERVOIR. THE NEXT DAY, I DROVE THE CAR AND OPENED THE HOOD. I FOUND A COOLANT LEAKAGE, SHOW IN THE PICTURES. I COOL DOWN THE RADIATOR AND THE COOLANT LEVEL WAS CLEARLY REDUCED. AS WELL RESERVOIR TANK.

WE TOOK THIS VEHICLE IN WHEN WE RECEIVED THE RECALL, I BELIEVE IN 2013. THEY STATED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH WE HAD NOISE, VIBRATION AND CONTROL ISSUES, WE HAD TO HAVE THE WHEEL BARRING REPLACED SUMMER OF 2017. ALL NOISE AND CONTROL PROBLEMS ENDED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, WHEN SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. IN ADDITION, THE COOLANT WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JERRY DAMSON HONDA LOCATED AT 2200 BOB WALLACE AVE SW, HUNTSVILLE, AL 35805 WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE COULD NOT BE REPLACED UNDER THE TEN-YEAR WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT

A KNOWN DEFECT - THE ENGINE BLOCK ON OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC CRACKED WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. WE'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND WERE NEVER ADVISED THAT THE CIVIC ENGINE BLOCK WAS PRONE TO THIS - OR WE WOULD HAVE NOT PURCHASED THE CAR. EVEN THOUGH HONDA "EXTENDED" THE WARRANTY FOR THIS KNOWN DEFECT, WE ARE OUT OF THE WARRANTY COVERAGE PERIOD - THUS LEFT TO FOOT THE EXPENSE OF REPLACING THE ENGINE ON OUR OWN. MY SON'S SAFETY WAS AT RISK WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL NOT A WARRANTY EXTENSION. SHAME ON HONDA.

ENGINE HAS SIGNIFICANT BLOCKING ISSUES DUE TO MANUFACTUER'S ERROR CAUSING LEAKS AND SUPER HEATING THE CAR. CAR IS NOT DRIVEABLE WITH ONLY 82,000 MILES APPROXIMATELY. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF THIS CAR WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2006.

2006 HONDA CIVIC WITH ONLY 44,326 MILES. LITTERALLY A 6,000 MILE A YEAR DRIVER. DRIVING DOWN THE STREET ABOUT 45 MPH FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES WHEN I STARTED SMELLING THE SWEET SMELL OF COOLANT. PULLED OVER AND SAW THAT COOLANT WAS SPURTING OUT OF AN AREA SOUTH OF THE SPARK PLUGS ABOUT 6 INCHES DOWN ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. FILLED IT BACK UP WITH COOLANT AND MADE IT HOME. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR TEMP INCREASE UNTIL I MADE IT HOME. IF I WERE DOING 70 ON THE HIGHWAY, THE HEAT AND PRESSURE WOULD HAVE BLOWN IT ALL OUT AND MY ENGINE WOULD HAVE OVERHEATED. LOOKS LIKE A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK WITH ONLY 44K. COME TO FIND OUT, THAT HONDA SIMPLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY INSTEAD OF DOING A RECALL. TOO BAD US SECOND OWNERS DIDN'T GET THE INFO.

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC EX IS CAUSING EXCESSIVE, UNEVEN WEAR TO THE TIRES BECAUSE THE REAR CONTROL ARM CAUSES NEGATIVE CAMBER ON THE REAR TIRES. AS A RESULT, I REPLACE THE TIRES ONCE PER YEAR. IN ADDITION TO THE ADDED COST, THE CAR BECOMES UNSAFE AFTER A PERIOD OF DRIVING BECAUSE OF THE WEAR ON THE TIRE - CREATING CUPS AND BALD SPOTS ON THE TIRE WHICH COULD LEAD TO FAILURE OF THE REAR TIRES AND A LOSS OF CONTROL FOR THE DRIVER.

TSB 08-001 - REAR NEGATIVE CAMBER IS CAUSED BY THE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARM FOR BOTH REAR WHEELS. AS A RESULT, THE GEOMETRY OF THE WHEEL'S POSITION WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE WEAR ON THE REAR TIRES RESULTING IN BALD AND CUPPED TIRES. THIS WEAR CAN CAUSE EARLY FAILURE OF THE REAR TIRES AND LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR FOR THE DRIVER.

I HAVE A CRACK IN MY COOLANT SYSTEM IN THE ENGINE BLOCK ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC. IT WAS PART OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY (10-048), BUT I'M PAST THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTY. PLEASE HELP!

I NOTICED 2 WEEKENDS AGO A PUDDLE OF COOLANT UNDER MY HONDA CIVIC. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO HAVE IT FIXED, ONLY TO FIND OUT THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND THAT'S WERE THE LEAK IS COMING FROM. I WAS LUCKY TO FIND OUT BEFORE MY RADIATOR DRIED OUT, OTHERWISE MY CAR COULD HAVE OVERHEATED IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE AND ME AND MY WHOLE FAMILY COULD HAVE BEEN STRANDED IN AN UNSAFE PLACE. HONDA ALREADY RECOGNIZED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE BLOCK OF THE 2006-2008 MODELS, SINCE THEY EVEN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FROM 8 TO 10 YEARS. MY CAR IS ALREADY 11 YEARS, BUT ONLY HAVE 105,000 MILES TO IT. I USED TO DRIVE A COMPANY VEHICLE, AND HAD ONLY BEEN USING MY CIVIC FOR SHORT TRIPS. IF MY CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN MY PRIMARY VEHICLE. THAT ENGINE BLOCK WOULD HAVE CRACKED BEFORE THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY WAS UP. SEARCHING THE INTERNET, I COULD SEE THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THIS. I WAS QUOTED $5800 TO FIX THE ENGINE BLOCK THAT HONDA KNOWS IS DEFECTIVE. THAT'S THE SAME AS THE VALUE OF MY CAR. DRIVING THESE CARS PRESENT A SAFETY RISK TO THE PUBLIC, BOTH FOR THE DRIVER OF THE HONDA CIVIC AND THE OTHER DRIVERS AROUND HIM. HONDA SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON ALL ENGINE BLOCKS AFFECTED BY THESE MANUFACTURING DEFECT. NHTSA, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU.

MY HONDA CIVIC EX 2 DOOR LOOSES POWER THEN SPUTTERS IN OVER DRIVER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE THERMOSTAT GAUGE INCREASED TO A HIGH LEVEL. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS. ONE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE OTHER INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THAT THERE WAS A PREMATURE CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED AND DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THE ENGINE BLOCK FOR A10-048, WHICH SUPERSEDED 10-048. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

THE BOLT IN MY MOTOR KEEPS BREAKING OFF CAUSING MY ENGINE TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING.

DRIVING AND CAR OVERHEATED AND STOPPED. TOWED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND FOUND CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. ONLY 50,000 MILES ON CAR, LIKE NEW AND WELL MAINTAINED. NO RECALLS. WHEN INVESTIGATED ON LINE FOUND WELL DOCUMENTED DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND MATERIALS ON ENGINE BLOCK. THE HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE WOULD NOT HONOR THEIR SECRET WARRANTY. THERE WAS NO RECALLS ON THIS WELL DOCUMENTED DEFECTIVE CAR. I GUESS YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK, BUT IN THIS CASE, THEY KNEW IT WAS A DEFECTIVE MATERIAL DESIGN JUST WAITING TO IMPLODE!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V030000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF STATEN ISLAND (SERVICE MANAGER, JEFFERY PASENKOFF, 1232 HYLAN BLVD, STATEN ISLAND, NY 10305, 718-720-0075) WHERE THE AIR BAG RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED. THREE MONTHS LATER, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND WENT OFF. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE A COURTESY DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS PERFORMED. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE "CURTAIN AIR BAG" FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR COST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

TAKATA RECALL COMPLAINT SUN VISORS FELL APART CAUSING HARM, INJURY

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE TODAY, AND MY MECHANIC FOUND IT WAS LEAKING FROM THE ENGINE BLOCK. HE WAS STUNNED BECAUSE HE KNOWS I HAVE TAKEN GOOD CARE OF MY CAR, AND HE SAID HE HAS NEVER SEEN THAT HAPPEN IN A HONDA. HE CALLED TWO OTHER MECHANICS OVER TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE HE COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. THEY TOLD ME I HAD DONE NOTHING WRONG AND THIS WAS OBVIOUSLY A FLAW. ONE OF THE MECHANICS DID A SEARCH AND SURE ENOUGH FOUND OUT THAT THIS WAS A FLAW THAT HONDA KNEW ABOUT. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW FROM A HONDA DEALERSHIP IN LATE 2015, AND I HAD NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS ISSUE. WE DISCOVERED THIS MORNING THAT BECAUSE OF THE FLAWED ENGINE, HONDA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON MY ENGINE TO 10 YEARS. UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR MORE THAN 11 YEARS, SO THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT HELP ME. THEY ACTUALLY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE A PART THAT THEY PUT IN MY CAR THAT THEY KNOW IS FAULTY JUST BECAUSE I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS. THE AGE OF THE CAR IS IRRELEVANT (ALTHOUGH, FOR THE RECORD, IT'S IN EXCELLENT CONDITION) WE CALLED HONDA HEADQUARTERS TWICE TODAY, AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING. THE ONLY RECOURSE THEY SUGGESTED IS CONTACTING THE BBB. WHEN WE TOLD THEM WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THERE WAS AN ISSUE, THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT HONDA DEALERSHIPS KNEW, BUT I HAVEN'T BEEN TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP IN YEARS FOR SERVICE. SO, HE BASICALLY TOLD ME I MUST GET MY OIL CHANGED AT HONDA DEALERSHIPS IN ORDER TO LEARN ABOUT SECRET PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR. I HAVE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF MY CAR, AND I HAVE NEVER HAD TO HAVE ANY WORK DONE ON IT BESIDES ROUTINE MAINTENANCE. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE REPS I SPOKE WITH MADE MY LOVELY CAR SOUND LIKE A LOST CAUSE BECAUSE IT IS NEARLY 12 YEARS OLD WITH 128,000 MILES ON IT. I REPEATEDLY TOLD HIM THAT WE BUY (OR USED TO BUY) HONDAS BECAUSE THEY LAST FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF MILES. I AM STILL IN SHOCK AND EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK HONDA WILL NOT REPAIR THIS KNOW DEFECT AND DID NOT ALERT ME OF THE DEFECT WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM A HONDA DEALERSHIP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V030000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (LUNDGREN HONDA OF GREENFIELD, 409 FEDERAL ST, GREENFIELD, MA 01301) WHERE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED ON SEPTEMBER 15, 2016. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON SEPTEMBER 20, 2017. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

AFTER TAKING THE CAR OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC MODEL TO HONDA DEALER SERVICE FOR TSB 10-048 FOR (HONDA CIVIC 2006-2009 YEAR MODEL) DUE TO ENGINE COOLANT LEAK WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO OVERHEATS WHILE HE WAS DRIVING FROM HIS WORK, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS A VALID ENGINE DEFECT,BY HONDA TECHNICIAN - A CRACKED ON ENGINE BLOCK WAS THE CAUSED OF THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, SINCE WE BOTH THE CAR ORIGINALLY FROM THE SAME HONDA DEALER PLACE WITH THE DELIVERY DATE OF OCTOBER 2005. THEY CONSIDER THE CAR AS 11 YEARS OLD AND OUTSIDE THEIR 10 YEARS WARRANTY AND THE ONLY WARRANTY THE AMERICAN HONDA CORP WILL BE 50 PERCENT OF THE PARTS AND LABOR COST FOR REMOVING AND REPLACING AN ENGINE. MY POINT IS, ITS BECAUSE MY CAR MODEL BETWEEN WAS PURCHASED OCT 2005 AND NOT 2006 THEY WILL NOT PROVIDE A FULL WARRANTY COVERAGE THE MANUFACTURE DEFECT FROM THE COMPANY? OUR ENTIRE FAMILY AND HOUSEHOLD OWNS 5 HONDA CARS, 3 CIVICS, 1 ACCORD AND 1 CRV WITH THE TRUST ON THE PRODUCT THEY HAVE IN THE PAST. HOW CAN'T THEY MAINTAIN A GOOD QUALITY PRODUCT ON THE LINE. THIS IS THE 2ND CIVIC IN OUR HOUSEHOLD WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, OUR DAUGHTER'S 2008 HONDA CIVIC HAD THE THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY REPLACED THE ENGINE AT NO COST LAST SUMMER 2016. WHY CAN'T THEY FULLY COVER THIS ONE, WITH THE SAME ENGINE DEFECT JUST BECAUSE IT WAS PURCHASED 3 MONTHS SHY FROM THE DELIVERY DATE BEFORE 2006. HONDA WOULD LIKE US TO PAY $2000 FOR THEM TO PERFORM UNSCHEDULE REPAIR DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE THEY INSTALL ON THE CIVIC'S CAR BETWEEN (2006-2009). HOW MANY CONSUMERS WHO PURCHASED THOSE CIVIC'S THAT ARE NOT AWARE OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN AND UNAWARE OF THE TSB BUT INSTEAD DECIDED TO SHOULDER THE ENTIRE COST HAVE AN OPERATIONAL CAR IN THE HOUSEHOLD, BECAUSE THERE IS NO RECALL CONSIDERED TO SEND TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? HOPE THIS ISSUE GETS RESOLVE.

NEW OWNERS OF THE CAR AND WERE NEVER INFORMED OF A RECALL. NOW THE ENGINE BLOCK IS CRACKED AS STATED IN THE HONDA RECALL BUT ONLY ALLOWS REPAIRS ON CARS FOR UP TO 10 YEARS OLD. OUR CAR HAS JUST REACHED 11 YEARS OLD FROM SALE 1 MONTH AGO!

PAINT PEELING ALL OVER ROOF, HOOD, FENDERS, AND TRUNK LEAVING A WHITE FROST. LOOKS HORRIBLE. STARTED ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO ON THE HOOD AND HAS SLOWLY SPREAD ACROSS THE CAR WITH NO SIGNS OF STOPPING.

CRACK ENGINE BLOCK AS THE OTHER HONDAS FROM 2006 AND 2009

IN 2013 I BOUGHT A HONDA CIVIC 2006 FROM A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP IN LONG ISLAND. IN 2017 MY ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED. WE LATER CAME TO FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT ON THE CAR. WE NEVER KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT A WARRANTY OR A RECALL ALTHOUGH HONDA SAYS IT WASN'T A RECALL IT WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WE HAD NO IDEA, WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED. WE ARE 10 OVER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP THAT WASN'T HONDA AND BASICALLY NOW NOBODY WANTS TO HELP US DO ANYTHING. IT WILL BE AT LEAST $4,000 TO FIX THIS CAR WHICH WE DO NOT HAVE AND WE ARE BEYOND FRUSTRATED AND UPSET. ANY KIND OF RECOURSE YOU CAN GIVE US WOULD BE EXTREMELY HELPFUL THANK YOU.

ENGINE OVERHEATED WHEN DRIVING CAUSING DANGER TO GET TO SIDE OF ROAD, WHEN CHECKED COOLANT NEAR EMPTY. NO LEAKING OF COOLANT WAS NOTED. DEALER TESTED ENGINE AND BLOCK CRACKED AT 93K. DEALER STATES THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT BY HONDA ON THIS MAKE AND YEAR BUT WILL NOT COVER.

THE CLEARCOAT/PAINT ON THE ROOF OF MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC EX, COLOR GALAXY GRAY IS PEELING AND WHITE SPOTS HAVE EMERGED. IT LOOKS TERRIBLE! I KEEP MY CAR VERY CLEAN AND WOULD LIKE THE DEFECT HANDLED APPROPRIATELY WHETHER THAT BE PAINTING OR WHATEVER.

AFTER DIVING MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC ABOUT 5 MILES, I COULD SMELL IT BURNING AND SEEN SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. NOTICE THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS HIGH AND THE CAR WOULDN'T START...HAD THE CAR TOWED TO HONDA WHERE I WAS TOLD THE WARRANT HAD EXPIRED... I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC, IT DEVELOPED A CRACKED ENGINE AT 120K MILES AND COOLANT LEAKED. ITS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CIVIC WITH A WEAK POINT IN THEIR NEW ALUMINUM ENGINE WITH A WARRANTY ISSUED NUMBER 10-048. INITIALLY THE WARRANTY WAS ISSUED FOR 8 YEARS AND THEN INCREASED TO 10 YEARS. HOW EVER MY HONDA IS 11 YEARS OLD AND IN SPITE OF LOW MILEAGE HONDA REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING. SHAME ON HONDA FOR PROVIDING A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND NOT FIXING IT

DRIVING AND ENGINE STARTED OVERHEATING. WAS ON THE ROAD WHEN I HAD TO PULL OVER, ADDED COOLANT AND THE NEXT DAY TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. WAS TOLD THERE IS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR HONDA AS THERE WAS AN ISSUE IN THE MOLD THEY USED FOR CASTING. THEY DID OFFER AN ADDITIONAL 5 YEAR WARRANTY ON THIS PART BUT LOOKING ONLINE THESE PROBLEMS ARE APPEARING IN 11 OR 12 YEARS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A JUDGE WHO PASSED AWAY AND HIS SERVICE RECORDS WERE UP TO DATE AND THE CAR WAS IN GREAT CONDITION. HOWEVER N REVIEWING THE HONDA WEB SITE THIS ISSUE WAS NEVER MENTIONED. I WAS FORTUNATE NOT TO BE ON A HIGHWAY AND THE ENGINE COULD HAVE BEEN BLOWN UP.

THE PAINT ON THE CAR IS FADING AND DEVELOPING LARGE WHITE SPOTS ON THE HOOD, ROOF AND TRUNK. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND SPREADING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE SUDDENLY INDICATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS HOT. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS NEARLY EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (RUSTY WALLACE HONDA IN KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE SHORT BLOCK CRACKED AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000.

CRACKED HEAD

I TOOK MY WELL MAINTAINED HONDA CIVIC INTO A LOCAL MECHANIC TO REPAIR MY AIR CONDITIONING AND AFTER SPENDING $250 WAS INFORMED IT WASN'T A PROBLEM WITH THE AC, BUT THAT MY ENGINE BLOCK IS ACTUALLY CRACKED AND IS LEAKING COOLANT. MY 2006 HONDA HAS 142,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN RUNNING VERY WELL UP TO THIS POINT. APPARENTLY IF MY ENGINE BLOCK WOULD HAVE CRACKED 10 MONTHS AGO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER WARRANTY. BUT BECAUSE IT'S A 2006 AND THE WARRANTY ONLY LASTS FOR 10 YEARS I AM OUT OF LUCK. MY CAR THAT WAS WORTH $5000 TO $6000 A WEEK AGO IS NOW VALUED AT $0. I FEEL LIKE SOMEONE JUST STOLE MY CAR OR AT LEAST WRECKED IT. I HAVE CHECKED WITH MY HONDA DEALER AND HONDA CORP. NEITHER ARE WILLING TO HELP WITH A NEW ENGINE REPAIR, I REALIZE THAT MY CAR IS 11 YEARS OLD, BUT WHEN I PURCHASED THIS HONDA I FIGURED IT WOULD GO AT LEAST 250,000 MILES. THAT IS WHY I BOUGHT IT. I HESITATE REPAIRING THE CAR, WHICH WILL RUN ABOUT $1800 BECAUSE THE NEW ENGINE BLOCK COULD ALSO CRACK! HONDA KNOWS THERE IS AN ENGINE BLOCK PROBLEM, BUT THEY ARE UNWILLING TO RESOLVE IT.

I HAD JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR 1 WEEK PRIOR AND WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE STREET IT STARTED SMOKING PROFUSELY THEN THE ENGINE SHUDDERED. BEING SCARED, I PULLED OVER RIGHT AWAY AND HAD IT TOWED. I FOUND OUT THE BLOCK CRACKED AND THIS IS HAPPENING ON MOST CIVICS OF THIS YEAR DUE TO FAULTY PARTS. I CALLED HONDA, THEY SAID THEY WOULDN'T HELP AND ITS MY FAULT FOR BUYING AN ELEVEN YEAR OLD CAR! THIS IS A FAULT OF HONDA AND THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS IT

TSB 10-048. LOWER ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND COOLANT LEAKED CAUSING ENGINE TO OVERHEAT AND FAIL. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT DESCRIBED IN SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048 AS A RESULT OF HOW THE BLOCK WAS CAST. THE SERVICE BULLETIN EXTENDS WARRANTY OF THE ENGINE BLOCK TO 10 YEARS FROM THE PURCHASE DATE BUT MY 2006 CIVIC FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY RANGE RIGHT NOW AND AMERICAN HONDA REFUSED TO COVER THE REPLACEMENT COST. THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT COST IS NOW WORTH MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE CAR. THE ISSUE HAPPENED JUST GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE HEAT GAUGE SHOT ALL THE WAY UP AND THE ENGINE SEIZED WITH WHITE SMOKE COMING OUT. THERE WERE NO INDICATORS ON THE DASH PRIOR TO THIS SO IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO NOTICE COOLANT LEAKING.

WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY ENGINE OVERHEATED WITH COOLANT LEAKING FROM A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT WAS NOT STUCK IN THE RETRACTED POSITION AND THE PASSENGER WAS UNABLE TO SECURE THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER (TAMPA HONDA LOCATED IN TAMPA, FLORIDA) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH OR LESS, THE VEHICLE EMITTED A STRANGE ODOR IN THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO SEE LIQUID COMING FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND IT WAS TOWED TO THE CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING ANTI-FREEZE FROM A FRACTURED ENGINE BLOCK. THE CERTIFIED MECHANIC STATED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK OR ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CERTIFIED MECHANIC REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE DEALER DUE TO THE RELATION TO MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: 10056874 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE BAILEY HONDA DEALER CONFIRMED THE DIAGNOSIS AND ITS RELATION TO THE MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: 10056874 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 06115822. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHEN THE CONTACT SAT DOWN IN THE VEHICLE AND CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG SUDDENLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE KEY WAS NOT INSERTED IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE CONTACT SUFFERED AN INJURED NECK, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (HARDEN HONDA IN ANAHEIM, CA) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

MY CAR SUDDENLY LEAKED A LOT OF ANTIFREEZE. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MY MAKE/MODEL OF VEHICLE. WELL THIS WAS A SURPRISE TO ME. THIS HAPPENED SUDDENLY. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOT THE HIGHWAY. HONDA SAYS HAVE KNOW THE ORIGINAL ENGINE WAS FAULTY, BUT THAT I AM OUT OF LUCK REPAIR WISE. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS AND NEVER NOTIFIED ME. (THEY CLAIM SINCE IT WAS NOT A RECALL THEY DID NOT HAVE TO) I BELIEVE THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY IT HAS YET TO BE RECALLED! HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/CIVIC/2006/ENGINE/CRACKED_ENGINE_BLOCK.SHTML

HONDA HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 TO 2009 HONDA 1.8 LITER ENGINES INSTALLED IN THE CIVICS, THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKS AND WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF THE REPLACEMENT. THE HONDA REP ADMITTED THAT THE BLOCK CASTINGS WERE FLAWED FOR THOSE THREE YEARS. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP EVEN WAS SURPRISED THAT HONDA DID NOT TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE A COUPLE MONTHS BACK ON A LOAN AND EVENTUALLY FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MANUFACTURERS DEFECT FOR THE ENGINE BLOCK AND HELD A TEN YEAR PERIOD OF GETTING A NEW ONE AND I WOULD LIKE TO GET A ONE BECAUSE I HAVE ISSUES PERTAINING TO IT BY EVERYPLACE I GO TO EVEN HONDA SAYS I MY CAR WASN'T ON THE LIST OF RECALLS EVEN WHEN I SHOWED THEM PROOF AND NOW I'M PASSED THE DEADLINE AND STILL HAVE NO SOLUTIONS. SOON I'LL BE STUCK PAYONG A CAR LOAN FOR A CAR I CAN'T USE BECAUSE I COULDN'T GET TO HELP I NEEDED WHEN IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY HAS 156000 MILES NOW

I WOULD LIKE THE RECALLS TO BE DONE OM MY CAR DUE TO SAFTEY ISSUES BECAUS3 I DON'T BELIEVE IT WAS EVEN DONE AT LEAST I KNOW WITH ME IT HASN'T AND I WASN'T INFORMED AND FEEL VERY UNSAFE IN MY VEHICLE BECAUSE OF WHAT SHOULD OF BEEN FIXED AND HASNT

THE PAINT BEGAN TO PEEL AWAY FROM THE CAR ABOUT 1.5 YEARS AGO. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. CAR LOOKS HORRIBLE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 65 MPH, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE DISPLAYED A HIGH READING AND THE ENGINE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOUSE AND THEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD CRACKED AND THE ENGINE OVERHEATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

THE CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. WITHOUT ANY WARNING IT SUDDENLY RAN HOT LAST WEEK (OF COURSE LATE AT NIGHT ON A HIGHWAY). WE HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH THIS MODEL AND THAT HONDA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS, BUT WE ARE NOW 1 YEAR OUT OF THAT WARRANTY. DEALERSHIP SAID TO CONTACT HONDA OF AMERICA. HOA SAID TO CONTACT DEALERSHIP. SO WE ARE GETTING THE RUNAROUND. TWO SMALL REPAIR SHOPS AREN'T EVEN ABLE TO DO THE REPAIR. HONDA NEEDS TO HELP US GET THIS REPAIRED AT NO COST OR A VERY LOW COST.

I OWN A 2006 HONDA CIVIC WITH 99,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING TO SCHOOL WHEN I NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT OF MY ENGINE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. THE INSIDE OF THE CAR HAD A STRONG DISGUSTING SMELL. I GOT THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A CRACK ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. I DID RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT. HONDA TOOK NOTICE OF THE DEFECT AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE CAR. THE DOWNFALL, HONDA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ONLY UP TO 8 YEARS AFTER THE PURCHASE DATE. I AM A SECOND OWNER AND HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE; HAD I KNOWN I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE CRACKED AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED AND NOW HONDA IS SAYING THAT I MUST BARE ALL COSTS EVEN THOUGH I AM A SECOND OWNER. THIS IS NOT RIGHT BECAUSE IT IS NOT MY FAULT THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED. HONDA SHOULD STILL COVER THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT IS A DEFECT ON THEIR PART.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO HONDA, AND THE OFFER A 10 YEAR WARRANTY ON IT, BUT AFTER 10 YEARS THEY BASICALLY TELL YOU SORRY YOU'RE OUT OF LUCK. HOW CAN THEY DO THIS WHEN THE ENGINES THEY MADE WERE FAULTY?

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC, IT DEVELOPED A CRACKED ENGINE AT 110K MILES AND COOLANT LEAKED. ITS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CIVIC WITH A WEAK POINT IN THEIR NEW ALUMINIUM ENGINE WITH A WARRANTY ISSUED NUMBER 10-048. INITIALLY THE WARRANTY WAS ISSUED FOR 8 YEARS AND THEN INCREASED TO 10 YEARS. HOW EVER MY HONDA IS 11 YEARS OLD AND INSPITE OF LOW MILEAGE HONDA REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING. SHAME ON HONDA FOR PROVIDING A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND NOT FIXING IT.

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE FRONT WHEEL MADE CLICKING NOISE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. WHILE I WAS DOING THE AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALL AT A DEALERSHIP, THE MECHANIC THERE TOLD ME THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL BEARING WAS BROKEN, AND THE DRIVE SHAFT AND THE WHEEL BEARING NEED TO BE REPLACED. I AM SITTING IN A MECHANIC SHOP TO REPLACE THE DRIVER SIDE DRIVE SHAFT AND WHEEL BEARING NOW ( WHICH COSTS ME 500 BUCKS), THE MECHANIC TELLS ME THE PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEARING IS ALSO BROKEN. I REALIZE THE WHEEL BEARING PROBLEM COULD BE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. INDEED, THERE IS A RECALL ON THE O-RING IN 2006( NOT SURE IF MY CAR WAS IN THE RECALL OR NOT), AND DOZENS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT WHEEL BEARING HAS BEEN FILED HERE ON NHTSA. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM MIGHT BE DRIVING ON THE ROADS NOW, WHICH MIGHT CAUSE FATAL ACCIDENTS. I WISH THE COMPANY TAKE ITS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, VEHICLE RAN HOT. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD, LEFT THE CAR UNTIL IT COOLED, ADDED WATER, AND BROUGHT IT HOME. THE REPAIR SHOP SAID I HAD A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. A USED ENGINE WOULD COST $2100. I DON'T KNOW WHAT A NEW ONE WOULD COST. I WAS TOLD I COULD GO THROUGH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE USED ENGINE THAT I DID HAVE INSTALLED. I ALSO WAS TOLD ABOUT THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN WHICH WAS ISSUED FOR THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. I TALKED WITH SOMEONE AT HONDA CORPORATION AND WAS TOLD 2 TIMES THAT THEY WOULD DO NOTHING BECAUSE MY 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED IN AUGUST 2016. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED ON APRIL 22, 2017 WITH 98500 MILES ON THE CAR.IF HONDA KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH WORKMANSHIP OR MATERIAL, THIS SHOULD BE COVERED NO MATTER HOW LONG YOU HAVE OWNED THE CAR. I HAVE SUNG HONDA'S PRAISES FOR 20 YEARS WITH 2 CARS. MY RELATIONSHIP WITH HONDA HAS ENDED.

MY CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK DUE TO A KNOWN MANUFACTURE DEFECT. HONDA EXTENDED WARRANTY OUT TEN YRS FROM ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE BUT DID NOT NOTIFY OWNERS OF POTENTIAL PROBLEMS. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR CAN OVERHEAT AND/OR ENGINE FAILS WITHOUT WARNING AND STEERING LOCKS UP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. HONDA SHOULD BE HELD LIABLE AS THEIR ACTIONS HAVE NOT ONLY BEEN IRRESPONSIBLE BUT FRAUDULENT. THERE SHOULD BE NO TIME LIMIT ON A MANUFACTURE DEFECT PARTICULARLY WHEN OWNERS DID NOT RECEIVE NOTIFICATION.

DRIVER SIDE INTERMOTOR POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE HONDA CIVIC ON FRIDAY MORNING 4/16/16 WITH SOME OTHER PEOPLE IN THE CAR WHEN FUMES STARTED COMING OUT OF THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. HE PULLED OVER BECAUSE IT WAS OVERHEATING. TOOK THE CAR TO MIDAS WHICH WAS CLOSED BY AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE. HE WAS ASKED BY MIDAS $2600 TO GET THE ENGINE REPLACED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I TOLD THEM THAT IF THEY KNEW ABOUT THE ISSUE WHY DIDN'T THEY ISSUE A RECALL. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT UP WITH THE HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE. PEOPLE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT FROM THIS INCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL, PROPELLANT WAFERS DEGRADE OVER TIME. SEE ATTACHED FOR DETAILS. I FIRST RECEIVED THIS SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016. I THEN CONTACTED HONDA. THE PHONE REPRESENTATIVE CONTACTED HERSON'S HONDA LOCATED IN 15525 FREDERICK RD, ROCKVILLE, MD 20855 AND SET UP A PHONE APPOINTMENT. WHEN I SPOKE TO HERSON'S THE POC TOLD ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND DEALERSHIP WILL CONTACT ME ONCE IT ARRIVES. HE ALSO MENTIONED THAT IT COULD TAKE MORE THAN 90 DAYS. AS OF TODAY, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON BUT I DO NOT THINK HONDA IS TAKING THIS SAFETY ISSUE SERIOUSLY.

NOTICED A ENGINE BLOCK COOLANT LEAK IN THE FRONT. THERE IS A TSB 10-048 BUT ONLY FOR 10YRS FROM 2006. CLEARLY THIS IS KNOWN PROBLEM. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THE ENGINE REPLACE FROM HONDA

PAINT AND CLEAR COAT PEELING.

THE CAR WAS SOLD AS STOLEN AND SALVAGED TITLE.. IT WAS IN 2 ACCIDENTS PRIOR TO SALE. IT IS UNABLE TO BE INSURED AND HAS BEEN REPOED. LOOKOUT FOR IT TO BE RESOLD!!!

MY VEHICLE STARTED LEAKING COOLANT DUE TO A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, AND THE LETTER ACKNOWLEDGES THE EXISTENCE OF A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE CAUSING THIS ISSUE. THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE WAS EXTENDED TO TEN YEARS, BUT MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY A LITTLE OVER ELEVEN YEARS SINCE PURCHASE, AND HONDA DECLINED ANY ASSISTANCE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER ACCOUNTS OF THE ENGINE CRACKING IN THIS MANNER RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED. FURTHER, DESPITE BEING APPLICABLE TO ALL 2006-2008 MODELS AND CERTAIN 2009 MODELS, THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT IS ONLY OFFERED AFTER THE CRACK/OVERHEATING EVENT OCCURS, AND OWNERS HAVE NO ABILITY TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE UNDER THIS WARRANTY WITHOUT EXPERIENCING A PRIOR FAILURE. THIS DEFECT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED FOR OWNERS IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON SITUATION BEYOND THE TEN-YEAR WARRANTY EXTENSION.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V346000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

AS I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN RT 102 WEST BOUND IN RHODE ISLAND, IN THE LEFT LANE OF A TWO LAND ROAD IN ROUGHLY THE 30 - 40 MPH RANGE WITH MY 7 MONTH OLD TODDLER IN THE CAR SEAT IN THE BACK SEAT, THE SIDE AIR BAGS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR DEPLOYED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MY CAR WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT AND DID NOT HIT A POT HOLE OR A BUMP IN THE ROAD. IT WAS A SMOOTH DRIVE UP UNTIL I HEAD A LOUD BANG AND WAS SMACKED IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. MY DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT IS LOCKED UP AS WELL. I WAS LEFT WITH A TEMPORARY RED MARK ON MY NECK AND A RINGING IN MY EARS. AFTER 3 HOURS THE HEARING IN MY LEFT EAR HAS YET TO RETURN BACK TO NORMAL. I DO NOT KNOW WHY THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED OR WHAT COMPONENT IS THE CAUSE. THIS INCIDENT ENGAGED MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY CHILD.

CAR OVERHEATED WHILE ON HIGHWAY. QUICK CHECK FOUND COOLANT HAD DROPPED. ADDED COOLANT, LEAK UNKNOWN. TOOK TO HONDA, THEY SAID LEAK FROM ENGINE BLOCK HAD A LETTER FROM HONDA WITH THIS ISSUE FOR 06-09 ENGINES IT COULD HAPPEN. INSTEAD OF RECALL, THEY EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS. MINE EXPIRED LAST 07-2016. FOUND OTHERS WHO HAD ISSUE AROUND 90K MILES. MINE IS AT 89,500 MILES. MANY OTHER MAY FACE SAME ISSUE, LEFT FACING AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR INSTEAD OF RECALL. HONDA WILL NOT BUDGE ANY REPLACEMENT DUE TO KNOWN ISSUE OR AID IN A REDUCED COST.

CAR OVERHEATED. LEFT MY DAUGHTER STRANDED, ALONE, LATE AT NIGHT ON A RURAL HIGHWAY. LATER IDENTIFIED A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. PROBLEM IS KNOWN TO HONDA. NOT REVEALED TO USED CAR BUYERS. HONDA WILL NOT HELP WITH REPAIR BECAUSE THE CAR IS BEYOND 10 YEAR WARRANTY. WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT CAR IF SHE HAD KNOWN. PREYS ON PEOPLE WHO BUY 10 YEAR OLD HONDAS, PEOPLE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THIS BIG OF HIT. NOW SHE HAS TO PAY FOR A CAR SHE CAN'T DRIVE AND FIND ANOTHER WAY TO WORK.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. MY CAR OVER HEATED WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN WHICH I WAS DRIVING 30MPH, JUST TWO MILES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE. CAN YOU IMAGINE IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND/ OR GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS? THE ENGINE HEAT GAGE WENT UP TO ONLY OF THE WAY HIGH AND SINCE THIS WAS NOT NORMAL THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN FOR MY CAR, I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF MY CAR. WHEN I HAD PULLED OVER MY CAR WAS SMOKING. I CALLED FOR ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE TO HELP ME TAKE MY CAR TO A MECHANIC. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A MINOR REPAIR BUT TO MY SURPRISE IT WAS A FACTORY DEFECT WITH HONDA. THE PROBLEM WITH MY ENGINE ENDED UP BEING A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK IN WHICH HONDA HAD NEVER INFORMED OF ABOUT THIS KNOW FACTORY DEFECT/RECALL FOR CERTAIN YEAR HONDA CIVICS. I HAD TO HAVE THE ENTIRE ENGINE BLOCK REPLACED. WHILE MY CAR WAS BEING REPAIRED BY THE MECHANIC I DID FOUND OUT, UPON MY OWN RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, ABOUT HONDA CIVIC CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK DEFECTS/RECALLS. I HAD CALLED MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP ASKING IF WHAT I HAD FOUND OUT ON THE INTERNET WAS TRUE THEY SAID YES. A FEW MONTHS EARLIER, I HAD RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL AND A CALL FROM HONDA ONLY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WHICH I PROMPTLY HAD FIX. IF I HAD RECEIVED INFORMATION ON THE AIRBAG, WHY WAS THIS NOT THE CASE OF A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK? HONDA TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE I AM 4 MONTHS PASSED THE 10-YEAR WARRANTY, THEY CAN DO NOTHING FOR ME AND THAT THE RECALL HAS BEEN EXPIRED. I WAS SHOCKED. HONDA HAD ALSO DELAYED MY CASE FOR 3 MONTHS. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO CONTACT THE BBB TO HELP ME WITH THIS. DEALING WITH HONDA HAS BEEN EXHAUSTING AND I HAVE LOST WORK AND HAVING FRIEND TAKE ME TO WORK. MY CAR WAS AT THE MECHANICS FOR ONE WEEK. VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: [XXX] ATTACHED ARE PICTURES AND RECEIPTS FOR WORK DONE AS WELL AS MY COVER LETTER I SENT TO HONDA. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL THIS RECALL HAS BEEN ACTIVE SINCE MAY 23, 2016 AND HERE WE ARE NEARING 12 MONTHS LATER AND "REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE" LANGUAGE STILL BEING DISPLAYED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHEN THE HEAT WAS ACTIVATED, THE VEHICLE CIRCULATED COLD AIR INSTEAD. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE HAD A FRACTURED BLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS WILLING TO PROVIDE A PORTION OF THE REPAIR THROUGH THE WARRANTY. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED LETTER FROM HONDA JULY 2016. MORE THAN 60 DAYS HAVE PASSED. IT HAS BEEN APPROXIMATELY 260 DAYS SO I'M REPORTING THIS EGREGIOUS AFFRONT TO MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.

IN NOVEMBER 2016, I WAS INFORMED THAT MY TIRES HAD UNEVEN WEAR AND DAMAGE DUE TO A DEFECTIVE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARM KIT. I LEARNED FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT HONDA ISSUED A WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THIS PART, BUT THAT IT HAD EXPIRED BEFORE THE HONDA MECHANIC POINTED OUT THE ISSUE TO ME. I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., AT THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE MECHANIC, TO SEEK AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, AS I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A PART THAT HONDA ACKNOWLEDGED WAS DEFECTIVE. THE CASE NUMBER IS 05759414. UNFORTUNATELY, HONDA DECLINED MY REQUEST. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE DANGERS OF DRIVING WITH TIRES THAT ARE UNEVENLY OR PREMATURELY WORN AND BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE PARTY IT WAS AWARE OF.

PAINT PEELING BADLY. DEALER UNWILLING TO CORRECT DR SIDE VISOR FAULTY BEAKS AWAY FROM MOUNT. DANGEROUS WHEN SUN IS HIGH FRONT BUMPER OF POOR DESIGN.

I PURCHASED 2006 HONDA CIVIC EX FROM PERSON FROM TX. AND I LIVE IN LA.IT HAD BRAND NEW TIRES ON IT AND 73,000 MILES AND WAS IN GREAT CONDITION. AT 75,000 MILES I STARTED HEARING NOISE IN REAR END LIKE ROARING NOISE.EACH TIME I HAD IT SERVICE AT LOCAL HONDA DEALER THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID TIRES OR ALIGNMENT.THEY KNEW ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AND TSB 08-001 BUT NEVER INFORMED ME ABOUT IT. IT TOOK ME 4 YEARS AND 2 WORN OUT $130 MICHELIN TIRES EACH TO FIND THE PROBLEM ONLINE AND FROM MY BROTHER. THE HONDA DEALER SHOULD HAVE INFORMED ME ABOUT HONDA BAD DESIGN REAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS EARLIER AND I COULD HAVE SAVED MYSELF 2 NEW TIRES AND LOTS OF HEADACHE. BUT I HAD IT FIXED AT LOCAL SHOP IN BOSSIER CITY ALIGNMENT SHOP FOR $560. NO MORE NOISE AND CAR RIDES LIKE NEW AND TIRES SIT STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW NOT COCKED OUT LIKE THEY DID.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE WAS FRACTURED. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENTIRE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000.

WAS DRIVING MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC HOME FROM SCHOOL AND SUDDENLY NOTICED COOLANT LEAK/SMOKE. TOOK TO HONDA DEALER WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS RECALL FOR CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK BUT HAS SINCE EXPIRED AND NOW WANT $4500 TO REPAIR - MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE CAR! I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE'S EVER AN EXPIRATION ON A RECALL. HONDA REALLY WANTS UNSUSPECTING PEOPLE OUT DRIVING WITH A KNOWN PROBLEM? THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO HAVE KNOWN THIS POTENTIAL PROBLEM SINCE WHEN I CHECKED MY VIN #, NO OPEN RECALLS SHOWED UP (I GUESS SINCE IT WAS ALREADY EXPIRED WHEN I PURCHASED IT - JULY 2016 FROM USED CAR LOT). PRETTY DISAPPOINTING THAT A DEALERSHIP COULD SELL ME A CAR WITH A KNOWN RECALL. PLEASE HELP ME. I'M JUST 17 YEAR OLD STUDENT/ATHLETE, HARD- WORKING AND BOUGHT THE CAR WITH MY OWN $ AND NOW FEEL RIPPED OFF AND HELPLESS. I'VE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE AND PRIDE IN MY CAR SO THIS ISSUE IS DEVASTATING TO ME.

THE CLEAR COAT HAS DISSOLVED IN SEVERAL SPOTS.

CENTER BRAKE LIGHT HAS BAD CONNECTION AND DOES NOT WORK ALL THE TIME. I HAD A DIFFERENT 2006 CIVIC THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE SEEN OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS AN LED LIGHT AND THE LIGHT IS FUNCTIONAL BUT THE CONNECTION IS BAD. PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN BRAKING AT ANY SPEED. ONGOING PROBLEM.

MY DAD HAS DIED FROM INJURIES SUSTAINED FROM A CAR ACCIDENT, HE TOLD ME HIS CAR 2006 HONDA CIVIC ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN! THE CAR ACCELERATED AT HIGH RPM WHEN HE JUST WENT TO ACCELERATE. TO ENTER THE ROAD MAKING A LEFT, INSTEAD THE CAR WENT SO FAST WITHIN SECONDS, HE LOST CONTROL AND HIS HONDA PLOWED THREW A STOP SIGN, THEN WAS FINALLY STOPPED BY A STEEL POLE HOLDING UP A QUICK CHECK SIGN! HE SUSTAINED EXTENSIVE CHEST INJURIES! 3 BROKEN RIBS, 2 DROPPED LUNGS, FRACTURED STERNUM, FRACTURED C4 AND C7 SPINE INJURIES! HE DIED DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE ACCERLAERTION OF THE VEHICLE RACING ON ITS OWN! MY DAD HAS ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH RECALLS AND HAS CAR LOGS AND MAINTENANCE LOGS, ETC. I HOPE OTHER PEOPLE NEVER HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THIS TRAGIC SUDDEN DEATH, DUE TO A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURER ACCELERATION, OR WHATEVER EQUIPMENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ACCIDENT! IT'S A MFG DEFECT! PLEASE ADDRESS OR AT LEAST MAKE PUBLIC AWARE THIS COULD HAPPEN TO THEM! THE CONSUMER REQUESTED A STATUS UPDATE. *JS

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND IS LEAKING COOLANT, REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF THE WHOLE ENGINE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE COVERED IN HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048, BUT THAT ONLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS. MY CAR WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD IN JULY 2006, SO THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 7 MONTHS PAST THAT 10-YEAR CUTOFF. I'VE BEEN QUOTED $5800 FOR A NEW ENGINE, WHICH IS MORE THAN THE CAR'S VALUE. THERE ARE MANY OTHER OWNERS OF 2006 MODELS IN THE SAME SITUATION ALREADY, AND THERE WILL BE EVEN MORE AS EACH SUBSEQUENT MODEL YEAR UP TO 2009 HITS THE 10-YEAR MARK. LUCKILY I CAUGHT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE IT BECAME A MAJOR HAZARD. FIRST THE CAR'S HEATER QUIT BLOWING WARM AIR, THEN A FEW DAYS LATER I NOTICED COOLANT LEAKING FROM UNDERNEATH ANY TIME I PARKED. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO FOUND THE CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. IF I HADN'T NOTICED THE LEAK AND THE COOLANT HAD BEEN COMPLETELY DEPLETED, THE ENGINE COULD HAVE OVERHEATED AND POSSIBLY FAILED ALTOGETHER WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE OVERHEATING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER AND NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE NO ISSUES WERE FOUND. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE RECALL FOR THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG WAS IN MAY OF 2016 BUT THERE IS NO REMEDY YET. WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE? I WOULD RATHER HAVE NO AIRBAG THAN ONE THAT MIGHT KILL ME.

TAKATA RECALL ANY UPDATE ON IF A SOLUTION WILL BECOME AVAILABLE AND ROLLED OUT TO DEALERSHIPS SOON?

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE NOTICE I RECEIVED FROM HONDA IN JULY 2016 ABOUT THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG, SAID THE REMEDY PARTS WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL 2016. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (IKE HONDA) ON OCTOBER 19, 2016 AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THE PART CAME IN..."ABOUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS". I HAVE HEARD NOTHING. MY NOTICE FROM HONDA DIRECTED ME TO CONTACT YOU IF I HADN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM AMERICAN HONDA OR THE DEALER WITHIN 60 DAYS. IN THE MEANTIME HONDA'S ADVICE IS NOT TO LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT...USUALLY NOT AN OPTION.

TAKATA RECALL AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC. (HONDA) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2011 HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES. ACCORDING TO THE EQUIPMENT DEFECT NOTIFICATIONS (16E-042 AND 16E-043) FILED BY TAKATA, THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OVER-AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG IS ACTIVATED. OVERLY AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION CREATES EXCESSIVE INTERNAL PRESSURE WHEN THE INFLATOR IS ACTIVATED, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE INFLATOR BODY TO RUPTURE. HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT OR CRASH, BUT I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY ASKING ME TO LOOK TO SEE IF THIS CAR WAS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. SHOULD I BE REPLACING THE AIRBAGS IN THIS CAR? *TR

MY ABS SYSTEM CAUSED ME TO CRASH. I WAS GOING 20 MPH IN SNOWY CONDITIONS (I HAVE SNOW TIRES). WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKES THE ABS SYSTEM ENGAGED BUT AFTER 20 FEET OR SO MY CAR HAD NOT SLOWED AT ALL. FINALLY I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND THE CAR BEGAN TO SLOW, BUT IT WAS TOO LATE AND I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I'VE SLIDE THROUGH SEVERAL INTERSECTIONS IN THE PAST BECAUSE WHEN THE ABS COMES ON IN THE SNOW THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO BRAKING AT ALL. I KNOW IT'S THE ABS SYSTEM THAT IS THE PROBLEM BECUASE IN ALL OF THESE INSTANCES I CAN ACCELERATE WITH NO PROBLEM, BUT WHEN I TRY TO BRAKE THE CAR WONT STOP. I FINALLY TOOK THE FUSE OUT OF THE ABS AND DROVE THROUGH THE SAME INTERSECTIONS AND MY CAR STOPS IMMEDIATELY WITH NO PROBLEM. I EVEN TRIED SLAMMING ON MY BRAKES ON THE SNOW COVERED ROAD WITH MY ABS FUSE REMOVED AND THE CAR STOPS IN LIKE 5 FEET, BUT WITH THE ABS FUSE INSTALLED IT TAKES ABOUT 30 FEET. WHY IS ABS REQUIRED IF IT'S SO DANGEROUS IN THE SNOW/ICE? WHY IS THERE NO BUTTON TO TURN IT OFF.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED A LETTER DURING THE SUMMER (2016) SAYING THAT MY AUTOMOBILE WAS NOW ON A RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THAT I SHOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. THE LETTER STATED THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A SECOND LETTER GIVING FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS, BUT NO LETTER WAS EVER RECEIVED. IT IS VERY INCONVENIENT AS WELL AS A LITTLE FRIGHTENING HAVING NO RECOURSE AT THIS POINT. I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME FEEDBACK AS TO A TIME THAT A REMEDY WILL BE BEING PUT IN PLACE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I EVENT RECALL ON HONDA ODYSSEY SEATS THAT WOULD NOT STAY LATCHED... EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENING WITH OUR CIVIC COUPE. RARELY DID WE MOVE THE PASSENGER SEAT BUT WHEN WE DID IT WOULD FREQUENTLY NOT LOCK IN PLACE AFTER AWHILE WITHOUT A VERY JERRY MOVEMENT WITH WEIGHT IN THE SEAT... WE'D FORGET TO CHECK AND COME TO A STOP SIGN AND I'D SLIDE FORWARD OR ACCELERATE ON THE FREEWAY AND I'D SLIDE BACK, JUST AN INCH OR SO, BUT I WAS AFRAID OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IN AN ACCIDENT. NO ONE BELIEVED US /SAW ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE SEAT. POINT IS READING THE RELEASE TODAY - - THERE COULD BE MORE HONDA VEHICLES AFFECTED. WE HAVE SOLD THE CAR SO I CAN'T PROVIDE ANY MORE INFO. DATE BELOW IS AN ESTIMATE.

TAKATA RECALL - FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THIS RECALL IN MAY OF 2016. IT IS NOW COMING UP ON JANUARY OF 2017 (SEVEN MONTHS LATTER) AND I HAVE NOT HAD ANY FURTHER COMMUNICATION ABOUT GETTING THIS DEFECT CORRECTED. WHEN CAN I EXPECT THIS TO HAPPEN?

TAKATA RECALL ON AUGUST 19, 2016, WE TOOK OUR HONDA TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL. OUR DEALER RAN INTO A PROBLEM WITH A MOUNTING BOLT (APPARENTLY A BOLT WAS CROSS-THREADED AND TWISTED OFF). A CALL TO HONDA AMERICA CONFIRMED THE ENTIRE AIR BAG WOULD THEN HAVE TO BE REPLACED. OUR DEALER ORDERED THE PART THAT DAY. AND HAS OF THIS WRITING NOT YET RECEIVED THE AIR BAG FROM HONDA AMERICA. OUR DEALER GAVE US A LOANER CAR FOR TWO MONTHS, BUT THEN TOOK IT BACK AND GAVE US OUR CAR BACK, WITHOUT A FRONT PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG, ON OCTOBER 31, WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO NOT PUT A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT. (IN ORDER TO GET MY CAR BACK, I HAD TO SIGN A STATEMENT ON THE WORK ORDER SAYING I HAD REFUSED A REPAIR, BUT I WAS NOT OFFERED A REPAIR TO REFUSE. I HAD TO SIGN THE WORK ORDER OR NOT GET MY CAR BACK.) JUST PRIOR TO THE DEALER CALLING AND TAKING THE LOANER BACK, I WROTE A LETTER TO HONDA AMERICA ABOUT THE DELAY IN DELIVERING THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG. I HAVE RECEIVED NO REPLY. SO IT HAS BEEN FOUR AND ONE-HALF MONTHS MY CAR HAS BEEN WAITING ON A REPLACEMENT AIR BAG. AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH HONDA AMERICA; I BELIEVE MY DEALER HAS ACTED IN GOOD FAITH. ATTACHMENTS: - ORIGINAL RECALL NOTICE - WORK ORDER FROM MY DEALER - MY LETTER TO HONDA AMERICA

I WAS RECENTLY INFORMED BY A HONDA REPAIR SHOP THAT MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAD A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE SERVICEMAN RECOMMENDED THAT I CONTACT HONDA USA REGARDING A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED. I CONTACT HONDA AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE, HOWEVER THEY CANNOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED. I EXPLAINED THAT I BROUGHT THE CAR USED WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN THAT THERE WAS SUCH A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE CAR UNLESS I NEEDED A REPAIR AT A DEALERSHIP. I HAVE SPOKEN TO TWO REPRESENTATIVES SO FAR AND RECEIVED THE SAME "STANDARD" ANSWER. "WE ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM OF THIS TYPE WITH THE CAR AND THAT'S WHY WE ISSUED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY." I EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A WIDE SPREAD ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE AND HONDA SHOULD STAND BEHIND IT'S PRODUCT BY PAYING 100% OF THE REPAIR COST WITH NO TIME OR MILEAGE LIMIT. AS AN OWNER OF TWO ACURAS AND A HONDA, I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY EXPERIENCE WITH THEIR APPROACH TO CONSUMER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS CAR. THIS DEFECT IS NOT THE CUSTOMERS FAULT. I AM CONTINUING TO PURSUE A RESOLUTION THAT ENDS WITH HONDA TAKING FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT IN THESE CARS. I PRAY THAT SOMEONE DOES NOT GET SERIOUSLY HURT BEFORE HONDA FINALLY MAKES THIS RIGHT OR NHTSA FORCES THEM TO ISSUE A FULL RECALL. I NOW HAVE THE VEHICLE SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY AND CANNOT DRIVE IT BECAUSE OF THE MANY TESTIMONIALS THAT DESCRIBE THAT DOING SO WILL RESULT IN A CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE THAT WILL RESULT IN A TOTAL ENGINE REPLACEMENT. AS AN ACURA AND HONDA OWNER, I AM BECOMING MORE AND MORE SKEPTICAL ABOUT HONDA AS A COMPANY THAT I HAD ALWAYS REGARDED AS VERY GOOD IN THE PAST.

THE CAR HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND IS LEAKING COOLANT. PER RESEARCH HONDA IS AWARE THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR 2006 - 2009 HONDA CIVICS AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS ON THE MOTOR. THE ORIGINAL OWNER PURCHASED THE CAR IN MAY 2006 AND MY DAUGHTER BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP IN DECEMBER 2013. WE WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE MOTOR OR THAT THIS COULD BE AN ISSUE. HONDA WAS CONTACTED AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO ASSIST MY DAUGHTER WITH REPLACEMENT OF A MOTOR THAT WILL NOW COST HER $5000 ON A CAR SHE STILL OWES ON.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY CAR WAS RUNNING EXTREMELY HOT. SMOKE WAS COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD, AND IT HAD RUN OUT OF COOLANT. WE THEN FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS LEAKING COOLANT FROM A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK WHICH IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CIVICS FROM 2006-2009. WHEN WE CONTACTED HONDA THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL HAD BEEN EXPIRED SINCE MAY OF 2016 AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP ME. THIS CRACK IN MY BLOCK IS DUE TO HONDA'S NEGLIGENCE IN MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF THEIR ENGINE BLOCKS, YET THEY REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THE CAR HAS HAD NO OTHER ISSUES AND HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE DURING THE NIGHT AND COLD WEATHER DROVE MY CAR LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES WHEN THE INSIDE STARTED SMELLING LIKE ANTI COOLANT. I PULLED OVER TO CHECK FLUID AND NOTICED THE BLOCK HAD A CRACK IN IT I HAVE NOTICED THERE IS A PROBLEM IN THIS MODEL OF CAR BUT IT'S FOR TEN YEARS OF PURCHASE AND I NEVER GOT A LETTER STATING I COULD GET THIS CHECK EARLIER I NEED HELP

FOR SOME TIME, A WARNING NOTICE WAS ON MY DASHBOARD SAYING THAT THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT OF MY CAR WAS TURNED OFF. IN JUL 2016, I RECEIVED NHTSA RECALL 16V-346 SAYING THERE WAS AN AIRBAG RECALL AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE PASSENGERS SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THE NOTICE SAID THE "REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016." IT'S DECEMBER. I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM HONDA SAYING THAT PARTS OF AVAILABLE. I CHECKED SAFECAR.GOV, WHICH SAID RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR.

TAKATA RECALL - PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR.

TAKATA RECALL. NOTIFIED IN MAY 2016 WITH AN EARLY SUMMER LATE FALL RESOLUTION WITH NO FURTHER UPDATE. WIFE AND I USE CAR TO CARPOOL TO WORK, SO "AVOID THE PASSENGER SEAT" RENDERS THE CAR MOSTLY USELESS UNLESS ONE OF PLAYS CHAUFFEUR AND THE OTHER SITS IN THE BACK. SITTING IN THE BACK OF A HONDA CIVIC AS AN ADULT IS A VERY OVERRATED EXPERIENCE, MORESO WHEN IT'S DONE EVERY DAY.

"TAKATA RECALL"LETTER RECEIVED JULY 2016 FRONT PASSENGER. "HONDA SUGGEST TO AVOID HAVING PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT." HONDA NOTIFICATION INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY UPDATES FROM HONDA REGARDING RECALL.

THE ENGINE BLOCK STARTED LEAKING COOLANT THAT CAUSED OVERHEATING AND DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. I DISCOVERED IT WHILE DRIVING. *TR

CAR OVERHEATED VERY QUICKLY WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH IN THE FAST LANE RESULTING IN A PLUME OF BLINDING WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY AND LIFE THREATENING EXPERIENCE AS I BARELY GOT THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER WITH OTHER CARS WIZING PAST ME AT SPEED. HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC FRIEND WHO TRACED THE LEAK TO A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. HE SAID THIS WAS NOT REPAIRABLE AND WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE BLOCK. THE CRACK IS LOCATED IN THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE, BEHIND THE EXHAUST HEADER PIPE AND DIFFICULT TO SEE. IT IS HOWEVER IN THE SAME AREA AS ALL OF THE OTHER REPORTED COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CIVIC OWNERS ON THE WEB. AFTER SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I FOUND OUT THAT THIS WAS A VERY COMMON AND WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH THE 2006-2009 CIVICS. I CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATE AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. FUNNY HOW I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICES WHATSOEVER AND DID NOT HAVE THE SLIGHTEST CLUE THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. NEEDLESS TO SAY I AM ONE YEAR PAST THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HONDA WILL COVER NOTHING AT ALL. CAR HAS 63,000 MILES AND IS OTHERWISE IN MINT CONDITION. ASKED HONDA TO PROVE THAT THEY SENT OUT THE NOTICE TO ME AND THEY HAVE YET TO RESPOND. HAD I RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION OF THIS ISSUE I WOULD HAVE MOST LIKELY TRADED THE CAR. NOW I AM STUCK WITH AN INOPERABLE CAR AND AN $8,900.00 REPAIR (QUOTED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP). TOTALLY LEFT IN THE DARK, BUT HAPPY TO BE ALIVE. THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE ALL OVER THE INTERNET JUST GOOGLE HONDA CIVIC CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND HUNDREDS MAYBE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WILL POP UP. HOW THIS VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE IS NOT A RECALL IS BEYOND ME. I GUESS SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO DIE BEFORE IT IS. SAD. *TR

THE VEHICLE IS HAS A DEFECT IN THE ENGINE WHERE THE LOWER ENGINE BLOCK CORRODES, LEAKS COOLANT, AND THEN AS A RESULT OVERHEATS. THIS DEFECT HAS BEEN ADMITTED TO BY HONDA AND THEY HAVE ISSUED TSB 08-044. THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND AS A RESULT I WAS STRANDED WITHOUT A WORKING VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CONTACTED HONDA REGARDING THIS AND WAS TOLD MY CAR IS 2.5 MONTHS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY. I WAS OFFERED AN INSIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF ASSISTANCE WITH THE COST OF THE REPAIR. I UNDERSTAND THE WARRANTY IS EXPIRED, BUT I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR MISTAKES, WHICH THEY HAVE REFUSED TO DO.

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS NOTIFIED BY HONDA IN MAY/JUNE OF THIS YEAR THAT THERE WILL BE A REMEDY IN THE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016, AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION SINCE THEN. THIS REMEDY IS TAKEN LONGER THAN EXPECTED, AND IT HAS BECOME DIFFICULT AS I AM NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT WITH ME.

TAKATA RECALL. SUPPOISED TO BE READY FIRST OF "FALL". STILL NOT READY 11/24/16. STILL WAITING. ANY INFO?

AT ABOUT 110,000 MILES ON MY 2006 CIVIC, THE ENGINE BLOCK DEVELOPED A CRACK. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT FAILED TO CONTACT US (MY WIFE IS THE ORIGINAL OWNER). WE ARE NOW JUST OUTSIDE OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THE COST TO REPAIR WAS QUOTED AS ABOUT $5,000. HONDA SHOULD COVER THIS COST DUE TO THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF A FAULTY PRODUCT BUT IT APPEARS WE ARE IN THE HOOK FOR THE COST (LIKELY WILL RESULT IN OUR NEED TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, A LOUD POP WAS HEARD AND SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

HONDA HAS DECIDED THAT A DEFECT WHICH RELATES TO MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY EXISTS IN CERTAIN 2006-2011 MODEL YEAR CIVIC VEHICLES. THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OVER-AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG IS ACTIVATED. THIS PROBLEM COULD LEAD TO POSSIBLY CAUSING INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANT. AMERICAN HONDA HAS OR THE DEALER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT IN MY VEHICLE WITHOUT CHARGE, WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME (60-DAYS FROM THE DATE I WAS FIRST CONTACTED FOR REPAIR APPOINTMENT IN JULY 2016).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE, THE TECHNICIAN ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE INTO THE GARAGE, BUT THE ENGINE FAILED TO START WITHOUT WARNING. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE COOLANT LEAKED ONTO THE ENGINE AND CAUSED IT TO SHUT DOWN. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE CONTACT FOUND A TSB AND MADE THE MANUFACTURER AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND A WARRANTY EXTENSION THAT WAS NOTED ON THE TSB. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 210,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

WHILE DOING GENERAL MAINTENANCE ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC (STATIONARY) I NOTICED IT WAS LEAKING COOLANT. AFTER WORKING ON THE CAR TO FIND THE LEAK AND DOING RESEARCH ONLINE I FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURE DEFECT FOR 2006-2009 HONDA CIVICS THAT CAUSES A FAILURE AND CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THERE IS A 10 YEAR WARRANTY EXTENSION, WHICH I AM BEYOND BY 5 MONTHS SO HONDA HAS REFUSED TO FIX THE VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY. AS AN OWNER OF TWO HONDA VEHICLES I AM SEVERELY DISAPPOINTED, ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS BY MAIL OR OTHERWISE BY HONDA. I HAVE RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM THEM REGARDING OTHER ISSUES ON MY 2011 ACCORD, BUT NEVER ABOUT THE 2006 CIVIC. IF I HAD I MAY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY THIS PROBLEM WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD AS A SMALL LEAK BEFORE IT BEGAN DUMPING/POURING COOLANT. LUCKILY, THIS NEVER LED TO SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE DUE TO OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS RISK OF ACCIDENT AND INJURY. IN ADDITION, HONDA WAS EXCEPTIONALLY RUDE AND UNHELPFUL ON THE PHONE. AFTER DAYS OF GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH THEM THEY FINALLY GAVE ME A CLAIM NUMBER FOR THE ISSUE. ONCE DENYING IT THEY TOLD ME THAT I COULD CALL THEIR CLAIMS DEPARTMENT, WHICH I ALREADY BELIEVED I WAS SPEAKING TO. TO MY SURPRISE THE NUMBER THEY GAME ME WAS FOR THE COURT SYSTEM THAT HAD RULED ON THIS CASE FOR HONDA. SO, AFTER WASTING MY TIME WITH THEM THEY FELT IT WAS APPROPRIATE TO PLAY WHAT AMOUNTED TO A PRACTICAL JOKE ON ME. THE WORST JOKE OF ALL IS THAT THEY HAVE FAILED ME AS A CUSTOMER IN ALL POSSIBLE WAYS. I FULLY BELIEVE THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE MADE A COMPLETE RECALL, AS IT IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND NO FAULT OF ANY CUSTOMER WHO OWNS ONE OF THESE VEHICLES. *TR

TAKATA RECALL -- 90 DAYS HAS PAST WITH ACTION FROM DEALERSHIP

WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT 65MPH, MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC EXPERIENCED AN UNEXPECTED OVERHEATING INCIDENT. WHILE SURROUNDED BY HEAVY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, I JUST BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY SAFELY. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER FLAW THAT RESULTS IN CRACKED ENGINE BLOCKS AND CONSEQUENT LOSS OF COOLANT. SINCE THE CRACK WAS ON THE INSIDE, I HAD NO WAY TO TELL THAT I WAS DRIVING WITH SUCH RISK. THERE WERE NO LIQUID DRIPS UNDER MY VEHICLE. HONDA WILL YEARS OWNERSHIP. MY VEHICLE WAS 10 YEARS AND 2 MONTHS. THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY THEY OFFERED WAS FOR 10 YEARS, UNRESTRICTED MILEAGE. MY VEHICLE IS A LOWER THEN AVERAGE MILEAGE VEHICLE SO MY 10 YEARS WAS SLIGHTLY EXCEEDED. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AND A FORMAL RECALL SHOULD BE OFFERED OR TIME AND/OR MILEAGE BE GRANTED TO ENSURE THAT OWNERS CAN HAVE THEIR VEHICLES INSPECTED AND REPAIRED. HAD I NOT BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC, I COULD HAVE CAUSED A HUGE ACCIDENT THAT COULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OF MY LIFE OR OTHER VEHICLE OPERATORS WHO WERE TRYING TO AVOID ME. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AND ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER WOULD BE EXTREMELY HELPFUL. *TR

TAKATA RECALL- I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA JULY 2016 ABOUT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG HAVING A DEFECT/BEING RECALLED AND NEEDING TO BE REPLACED (RECALL WAS ISSUED MAY 23, 2016(HTTPS://VINRCL.SAFERCAR.GOV/VIN/VINLOOKUP)-SO THE NOTIFICATION ABOUT THE RECALL TOOK A FEW MONTHS ALONE). THE SOLUTION GIVEN WAS TO AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER IN THE CAR. THE LETTER STATED THAT PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. I CALLED TODAY, 10/28/2016 @ 09:06 EST, SPEAKING TO A REPRESENTATIVE NAMED [XXX] AND WAS TOLD THEY ARE STILL MANUFACTURING PARTS AND I WOULD GET A NOTICE WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE. AS A FAMILY OF 4, BEING TOLD THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR CAR AND RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT BUT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN YOUR VEHICLE WOULD BE FIXED IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. IF THEY KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE, THEY NEED TO GET IT FIXED IN A TIMELY FASHION. IF THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE PARTS ARE GOING TO BE MADE AVAILABLE THEN THEY NEED TO PROVIDE AN ALTERNATE VEHICLE UNTIL THE RECALL CAN BE FIXED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL. THE RECALL NOTIFICATION WAS ORIGINALLY SENT IN MAY 2016. THE MANUFACTURER STILL HAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE.

BOUGHT A 2006 HONDA CIVIC WITH 54,000 MILES IN AUGUST OF 2016. ON A 6 HR TRIP TO OMAHA NEBRASKA THE ENGINE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT. PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND DISCOVERED THAT THE COOLANT WAS NEARLY EMPTY. WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A HONDA DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED AND LEAKING COOLANT. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY HONDA BUT THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED BY 7 MONTHS. CURRENTLY ON THE HOOK FOR $5200 BECAUSE OF HONDA'S KNOWN DEFECTIVE PART

I HAVE 2006 HONDA CIVIC THAT I BOUGHT BACK IN 2012 WITH 93K MILES ON IT AND NOW IN 2016 I HAD MY ENGINE BLOCK LEAK AND SO I TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALER SO THEY CAN CHECK IT AND TOLD ME I HAD A CRACK ON MY ENGINE AND THEY SAID THAT HANDA SENT A LETTER WITCH I NEVER GOT AND THAT MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRE AND THEY CAN'T DO ANY THING ABOUT I'VE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR I ALWAYS KEEP CLEAN AND MAKE SURE I DO MY MAINTENANCE ON IT I HAVE NO ACCIDENTS ALSO WAY I KNOW I HAD A PROBLEM IS BY THE CAR OVER HEATING AND THE SMOKE COMING OUT WHILE I WAS IN HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY YET HONDA DOESN'T WANT TO ANYTHING WHAT ABOUT IF WE GOT HURT WHILE WAITING FOR SOME TO COME AND TOW MY CAR AWAY AND FOR SOME TO PICK US TO TAKE US HOME NOW I HAVE NOW CAR AND NOTHING TO DRIVE I HOPE EVERYONE SPEAKS UP FOR EVERYONE.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AT 10-YEARS, 4-MONTHS. HONDA WARRANTED THE ENGINES ORIGINALLY FOR 5-YEARS THEN EXTENDED BLOCK WARRANTY TO 8-YEARS AND FINALLY TO 10-YEARS. THE BLOCKS HAVE A MAJOR DEFECT WHERE THE BLOCK CRACKS BECAUSE THE BLOCK WALL IS TOO THIN ON THESE ALUMINUM BLOCKS AND MINE WAS NO DIFFERENT. MY BLOCK FAILURE CAME 4-MONTHS OUT OF SECOND EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD. HONDA SAYS THEY WILL NOT HONOR WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CAR IS 4-MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND HONDA CUSTOMER RELATIONS NUMBERS TO NO AVAIL. THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFECT AND HONDA HAS ADMITTED TO IT THAT'S WHY THEY PROVIDED WARRANTIES FOR THIS PROBLEM. SINCE MY CAR IS 10-YEARS OLD AND IS 4-MONTHS OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS COVERED REPAIR, I AM STUCK PAYING TO GET MY CAR ON THE ROAD AGAIN AT THE TUNE OF $5000 - $6000 AT LEAST. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA FOR THEIR STANCE ON THIS ISSUE WITH ME. IT'S BASICALLY MY BAD THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AT 10-YEARS, 4-MONTHS INSTEAD OF WITHIN THE 10-YEARS STATED ON THE WARRANTY. I DIDN'T EVEN RECEIVE A LETTER EXPLAINING THE WARRANTIES OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES. I THINK HONDA SHOULD STEP UP AND COVER THIS REPAIR ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PROBLEM IS THEIR FAULT IN THEIR MANUFACTURING OF THE BLOCKS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR MONTHS TO DETERMINE IF OUR CIVIC IF PART OF THIS RECALL OF TAKATA AIRBAGS. THE SAFE.GOV SITE SAYS OUR YEAR AND MAKE ARE PART IF THE RECALL, BUT THE SITE ALSO SAYS RECALL IS INCOMPLETE. WE HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM HONDA. I AM CONCERNED IF THIS IS PART OF THE RECALL. HOW CAN WE FIND OUT WITH CERTAINTY?

TAKATA RECALL MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED TO REMEDY. I RECEIVED A LETTER DATED JULY 2016 STATING THAT IT WOULD HAVE THE PART BY LATE SUMMER/FALL. THAT WAS THE LAST COMMUNICATION I RECEIVED. I AM DRIVING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AUTO THAT MAY CAUSE GREAT LIABILITY OR INJURY TO ME.

I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE INITIAL NOTICE SINCE LAST 3 MONTHS AND YET NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE. I WAS ADVISED NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT PROVIDING ME AN ALTERNATIVE/RENTAL MODE OF TRANSPORTATION. I TRAVEL 50 MILES, EVERYDAY. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR THAT I HAVE AND MY FIANCE CANNOT EVEN RIDE WITH ME, WITHOUT TAKING THE DANGER OF BEING KILLED BY THE FAULTY AIRBAGS. MY CAR ALSO SHOWS SOMETIMES THE AIRBAG LIGHT, FOR WHICH DEALERS WANT $100 TO DIAGNOSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-40 TRAVELING TOWARDS WILMINTON, NC WHEN I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW THE TEMPERATURE LIGHT WAS REGISTERING HOT AND WAS IN THE RED ZONE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO WILMINTON, NC. THE SHOP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THEY CALLED HONDA TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS COVERED UNDER TSB 10-048 AND THEY WERE TOLD THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY ON MY CAR EXPIRED IN JULY. THE CAR HAS ONLY 66,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THIS DEFECT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO STOP RUNNING ANYWHERE. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED IN RALEIGH ON I-40 THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 (OFFICIAL DATE MAY 23, 2016) DETAILING AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE PROBLEM IS THAT "THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OVER-AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG IS ACTIVATED." THE LETTER GOES ON TO EXPLAIN THAT THIS COULD CAUSE METAL FRAGMENTS TO PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION AND HARM THE VEHICLE OCCUPANT. THE ONLY OPTION GIVEN IN THE LETTER IS TO AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED. ACCORDING TO THE LETTER, THE PARTS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE AVAILABLE BY NOW. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND OTHER PEOPLE'S SAFETY AS THEY RIDE IN MY CAR. ***TOO MUCH TIME HAS PASSED, AND I EXPECT IMMEDIATE REPAIR FREE OF CHARGE.***

TAKATA RECALL- FIRST HEARD OF THIS RECALL OVER 1 YEAR AGO, CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES, NO RECALL ON MY CAR, GOOD, CHECKED A 3RD TIME AND NOTICED I SUDDENLY HAD THE RECALL ON MY PASSENGER AIRBAG- SO IT TOOK THEM OVER A YEAR TO TELL ME THAT I HAD THIS AIRBAG IN MY CAR. WAS NOT NOTIFIED PERSONALLY UNTIL 3 MONTHS AFTER I FOUND THIS ON RECALLS.GOV. HAVE CALLED HONDA TO TALK ABOUT THIS- THEY TELL ME THAT THEY CANNOT CONFIRM OR DENY WHETHER I HAVE THIS IN MY DRIVERS AIRBAG, ONLY THAT IT IS MY PASSENGER ONE- AND IT CANNOT BE FIXED UNTIL SEPT OF 2016. I FOUND THIS OUT IN MAY OF 2016. IT IS ALMOST OCTOBER (TODAY IS 9/19/16) AND I CONTACTED HONDA AGAIN- REPLACEMENT PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE NJ PARKWAY COMING HOME FROM WORK AND THERE WAS A LOUD CRACK NOISE, AT FIRST I THOUGHT I GOT HIT ON MY WINDSHIELD BY A ROCK, THEN ABOUT 5 SECONDS LATER MY PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR LOWERED AND IT IS BROKEN ON THE INSIDE OF THE PLASTIC. NOW IT WILL NOT STAY UP AND CAUSES A DISTRACTION TO ME WHILE I'M DRIVING. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT ASSIST IN ANY WAY IN REPLACING A VISOR THAT THEY KNOW IS BAD.

THE PAINT IS DISAPPEARING FROM THE ROOF AND THE SIDES OF MY BACK WINDOWS. HONDA WILL DO NOTHING SINCE THEIR PAINT RECALL IS OVER. I RECEIVED OTHER RECALLS IN THE MAIL. NEVER A PAINT ONE. I AM NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN THE PAINT PROBLEM BEGAN. PROBABLY AROUND 2012-2014.

TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FIRST WEEK IN JULY, HAVE CONTACTED BROOKDALE HONDA, BROOKLYN CENTER, MN SEVERAL TIMES REGARDING REPAIR AND AM ALWAYS TOLD THE "PART IS ON ORDER, WE WILL CONTACT YOU WHEN PARTS ARRIVE".

I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER MIDNIGHT AND NOTICED A SMELL. I LOOKED FOR SMOKE AND SAW NONE. I GOT STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND CHECKED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND SAW IT WAS AT 3/4 RATHER THAN 1/2 AND JUMPED TO FULL WHILE WAITING AT THE RED LIGHT. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR INDICATORS EVER LIT UP. I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION AND HAD IT TOWED HOME AND THEN AGAIN TO THE HONDA DEALER I GO TO FOR MY MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS IN THE MORNING. THEY CALLED LATER THAT AFTERNOON TO SAY IT WAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND WOULD BE $5000 + TAX FOR A NEW BLOCK. THEY TRIED TO GET HONDA TO HONOR THE TSB-08-044 WARRANTY BUT IT WAS JUST OUTSIDE THE TIME FRAME FOR THE WARRANTY SO HONDA REFUSED. THE CAR HAS AROUND 148K MILES ON IT AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN FOR ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2010 AT 30K MILES. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE BLOCK EVEN THOUGH THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY EXTENSION TO 8 YEARS HAPPENED IN AUGUST 2010. I DID HOWEVER GET THE AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE EARLIER THIS YEAR, SO HONDA KNOWS I OWN THE CAR AND SHOULD HAVE LET ME KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THE WARRANTY. CHECKING ON THE INTERNET, THIS ENGINE BLOCK FAILURE IS STILL HAPPENING TO WAY TOO MANY HONDA CIVICS AFTER 10 YEARS WITH MANY RANGES OF MILEAGE, BUT HONDA IS REFUSING TO HELP IN ANY WAY FOR A KNOWN CASTING ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE BLOCK. MY TWO PREVIOUS HONDA CIVICS I OWNED FOR 11 YEARS WITH 208 K MILES AND 9 YEARS WITH 205K MILES AND NEITHER OF THEM HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE HONDA DEALER THAT SOLD ME THE CAR IN 2010 SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND DIDN'T AND HONDA ITSELF SHOULD HAVE INFORMED ME OF THE WARRANTY EXTENSIONS IN 2010 AND 2013 BUT DIDN'T. ENGINE BLOCKS DO NOT NORMALLY FAIL SO I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE COSTS NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES FOR THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR.

I FREQUENTLY NEED TO HAVE A PASSENGER. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

ON THE DATE OF AUGUST 12, 2016 (FRIDAY) AT OR AROUND 5:40 PM EST. THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN IN MOTION AND WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE DUE TO SOMETHING INVOLVING THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS ON A CITY STREET. IT HAD TO BE PUSHED OFF THE ROADWAY. NOTICED COOLANT LEAKING ON THE GROUND FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY AAA TO OUR LOCAL REPAIR FACILITY. ON MONDAY MORNING AUGUST 15, 2016 THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. AT THIS POINT I HAD INFORMATION ON HONDA'S ENGINE BLOCK PROBLEMS. 2006 HONDA CIVIC 'ENGINE BLOCK CRACK' TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 10-048: THE PROBLEM: THE ENGINE BLOCK MAY LEAK COOLANT, RESULTING IN ENGINE OVERHEATING. CORRECTIVE ACTION: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ENGINE BLOCK FREE OF CHARGE. WARRANTY INFO: REPAIRS WILL BE DONE UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY (10 YEARS FROM THE ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE, NO MILEAGE LIMITS). MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS PURCHASED AUGUST 14, 2006. THE ENGINE FAILURE HAPPENED DURING THE WARRANT PERIOD. MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AMERICAN HONDA REFUSES TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE AT 100% THEY OFFERED SPLIT COST FOR THE ENGINE BLOCK OF 10% FOR ME TO PAY. THEY ALSO SAID THE THE GASKET CYLINDER HEAD WAS DAMAGED DUE TO OVER HEATING BECAUSE OF THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THEY HAD ME PAY 50% COST OF THE REPAIR. THEY ALSO HAD ME PAY 10% FOR REPLACEMENT OF COILS. ALL THIS DAMAGE WAS DUE TO THE FAULTY ENGINE BLOCK. TSB STATES REPLACE THE COILS AND CHECK FOR HEAD GASKET DAMAGE. IF DAMAGE IS FOUND GO TO STEP ?? I CONCLUDE IT MEANS REPLACE THE GASKET CYLINDER HEAD. HONDA CLEARLY KNOWS OF THIS ISSUE AND HAS NOT ISSUED ANY RECALLS. VEHICLES DYING ON THE HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS IN TRAFFIC AND MOTION SHOULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN. MY VEHICLE WAS IN WARRANTY I SHOULD NOT BE PAYING ANYTHING. I DID NOT EVEN ASK FOR TOWING OR ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION NOR WAS ANY OFFERED. TSB 10_048

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY ANNOUNCING THE RECALL OF MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALER, OCEAN HONDA OF SANTA CRUZ, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK WHEN THEY HAD INFORMATION.

TAKATA RECALL - I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT SINCE THE MIDDLE OF JUNE. BOTH MY BOYFRIEND AND I LIVE TOGETHER. WE BOTH DRIVE THE SAME CAR MAKE AND MODEL BUT HIS IS AN '07. WE BOTH HAVE RECALLS ON OUR PASSENGER AIRBAGS AND WE HAVE A SWITCH THAT INDICATES WHEN NOBODY IS THE PASSENGER SEAT IT SHUTS OFF THE AIRBAG. UNFORTUNATELY, BOTH OF OUR VEHICLES DON'T DO THAT, THE LIGHT NEVER INDICATED THAT THE AIRBAG IS SHUT OFF AND THAT MEANS THAT THE AIRBAG IS STILL ACTIVE. SO IN OTHER WORDS IF WE GET HIT, EVEN THOUGH NOBODY IS IN THE SEAT, OUR PASSENGER AIRBAGS ARE GOING OFF. IVE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL PEOPLE REGARDING THIS AND EVEN SUBMITTED PHOTOS. FINALLY, THEY CALLED ME REGARDING ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION ON 8/15 BUT TODAY, 8/16, MY CASE MANAGER YVONNE, STATED THAT I WAS DENIED ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION. I LOVE THAT HONDA THINKS THIS IS A GAME. IN OTHER WORDS, MY BOYFRIEND AND I ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE SEPARATE CARS TO THE GROCERY STORE OR WHEN WE GO OUT OF TOWN. WE CARPOOL AND I TRIED TO EXPLAIN THAT TO THE CASE MANAGER AND SEVERAL PEOPLE BUT I GUESS MY BOYFRIEND'S LIFE OR MY LIFE DON'T REALLY MATTER TO THEM. MY CASE MANAGER YVONNE, STATED THAT SHE IS ORDERING A PART TO FIX MY AIRBAG LIGHT AND I MAY HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS REPAIR. I WONDER WHEN THIS WILL EVEN COME IN BY THEN MY AIRBAG MAY GO OFF WITHOUT WARNING OR WHAT IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. BELOW, I HAVE SUBMITTED PHOTOS OF MY CAR WHILE IT'S ON AND AS YOU CAN SEE THE LIGHT IS OFF WHEN IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE SUN VISOR IN THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER A RECALL. HOWEVER, THE SUN VISORS WERE STILL DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN THE DEALER AND REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE RECALL DETAILS WERE UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 131,133.

NHTSA RECALL 16V-346: I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA INFORMING ME OF A SAFETY RECALL INVOLVING THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OF MY VEHICLE THAT COULD CAUSE INJURY TO A VEHICLE OCCUPANT. HONDA IS NOT OFFERING TO PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION, THE LETTER STATES THAT UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO MAKE A REPAIR LATER IN THE SUMMER I SHOULD NOT HAVE ANYONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS IS OUR FAMILY CAR, MY YOUNG DAUGHTER SITS IN THE BACK SEAT BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT, WE OFTEN HAVE A SECOND CHILD IN THE BACK OF THE CAR, AND A LARGE DOG. WE CAN'T POSSIBLY AVOID USING THE PASSENGER SEAT WHEN THE BACK SEAT IS FULL, AND OUR OTHER CAR IS TOO SMALL TO ACCOMMODATE EVERYONE. WHEN I REQUESTED A RENTAL CAR FROM MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR THE PERIOD UNTIL THE REPAIRS WERE MADE, IT WAS DENIED. I CONTACTED HONDA AND HAD TO SUBMIT A REQUEST FOR ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION AND WAS TOLD A CASE WORKER WOULD CONTACT ME IN 2 WEEKS OR SO. I THINK THIS IS ALL ABSURD. THEY ARE IMPLYING THAT AN AIRBAG RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT AS HAZARDOUS AS ONE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, AND ALSO THAT A REASONABLE SOLUTION IS TO JUST NOT USE THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE RESPONSE, AND IT HAS LEFT MY FAMILY IN DANGER UNTIL THE REPAIRS CAN BE MADE, WHENEVER THAT WILL BE. NO ESTIMATED TIME LINE HAS BEEN GIVEN.

CAR BEGAN OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION A HAIRLINE CRACK WAS VISIBLY LEAKING COOLANT ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT IT IS THE CRACK FROM TSB 10-048 BUT WILL NOT COVER SAID ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY TIME LIMIT . AS A SIDE NOTE, BEING THE THIRD OWNER OF THE VEHICLE I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY/ ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED INJURIES TO THE NECK, CHEST, AND KNEE, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A JUNK YARD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

HONDA CIVIC 2006 SUNVISOR IS BROKEN - REMAINING IN THE DOWN POSITION PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTING VIEW FROM WINDSHIELD AND REAR-VIEW MIRROR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE HYDROPLANED AND THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A CEMENT BARRIER. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT FACILITY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A FRACTURE TO THE FRONT SINUS BONE, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED MINOR LACERATIONS AND A BRUISED SHOULDER, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC LX MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN GALAXY GREY METALLIC, VIN [XXX], HAS PEELING AND CRACKING PAINT ON THE HOOD, PASSENGER SIDE FENDER, AND ROOF. ON 07/29/16 THE CAR HAD 38,000 MILES. I SHOWED IT THE DEALER ON 10/29/15 AND THEY TOOK PICTURES OF THE CAR AND SENT THEM TO HONDA, BUT I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING FROM THEM. THIS CAR IS WAXED TWICE A YEAR, IN THE SPRING AND FALL WITH A GOOD QUALITY CLEAR COAT SAFE WAX FROM TURTLE WAX. I TAKE PRIDE IN THE APPEARANCE OF THIS VEHICLE AND HONDA?S REFUSAL TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM IS VERY DISAPPOINTING. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE SUN VISOR IS FALLING APART BECAUSE THE METAL SPRING INSIDE HAS BROKEN THE PLASTIC WITHIN THE VISOR. THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP AND IT IS DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER. I COULD FEEL A DIFFERENCE IN THE MOTION OF THE VISOR OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS AND IT FINALLY BROKE YESTERDAY. THIS IS THE PASSENGER VISOR (THE DRIVER'S VISOR WAS REPLACED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO FOR THE SAME PROBLEM) AND IS PRIMARILY USED TO HOLD A SUN SHADE IN PLACE WHEN IT IS PARKED. EVERYTHING WITHIN MY CAR IS TREATED VERY GENTLY SO THAT MY TEN YEAR-OLD CAR LOOKS ALMOST BRAND NEW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISES AND CUTS ON THE LEGS, BACK, AND RIGHT ARM THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED BRUISES FROM THE SEAT BELT. THE REAR PASSENGER SUSTAINED CUTS TO THE FOREHEAD, A FRACTURE ON THE FRONT OF HIS SKULL, AND BRUISING IN THE BRAIN AND ABDOMEN THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOW LOT. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V346000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 175,000.

L/H SUN VISOR ASSY OF OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC EXPERIENCED A CATASTROPHIC MECHANICAL FAILURE. MODE OF FAILURE WAS SPLITTING OF A BONDED JOINT OF THE UPPER AND LOWER PLASTIC PIECES THAT SURROUND & CAPTURE L/H (PRIMARY) ROTATION MECHANISM. INTERNAL MECHANISM IMPARTS SIGNIFICANT INTERNAL STRESS ON THE BONDED JOINT EACH TIME SUN VISOR RE-POSITIONED. UNDAMAGED SEAM GIVES ROTATIONAL RESISTANCE WHEN VISOR IS STOWED OR FULLY FORWARD (SOMEWHAT OUT OF THE DRIVER'S FIELD OF VIEW). THIS FATIGUE-INDUCED FAILURE MODE PRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. THE VISOR ASSEMBLY FAILS IN THE WORSE POSSIBLE POSITION: HANGING VERTICALLY DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER OBSCURING SIGHT THROUGH THE UPPER SECTION OF THE WINDSCREEN. THE DEFECTIVE SUN VISOR IS A CONSTANT DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER. IT CANNOT BE ROTATED AROUND THE PRINCIPAL AXIS INTO ANOTHER POSITION WITHOUT IMMEDIATELY FALLING DIRECTLY BACK INTO THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT. THE FAILED SUN VISOR COMPLETELY OBSCURES OVERHEAD TRAFFIC SIGNALS AND SIGNAGE. THIS MODEL YEAR HONDA CIVIC HAS A DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF THIS PARTICULAR FAILURE MODE. A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT CIRCA 2011 WAS APPLICABLE ONLY TO VEHICLES WITH LESS THAN 100K MILES OR 7 YEARS (REF: "SETTLEMENT WEBSITE FOR COOPER, ET AL. V. AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC., ' CASE NO. BC 448670"; URL: HTTP://SETTLEMENT-CLAIMS.COM/VISORSETTLEMENT/). THIS PARTICULAR VISOR FAILURE OCCURRED SOON AFTER A LIMITED 'EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD.' OUR VEHICLE'S ODOMETER READING IS 103,574 MILES. PRIMARY DRIVER NOTICED THE VISOR BECOMING "LOOSE" BUT UNTIL IT FAILED COMPLETELY, IT MAINTAINED COMPLETE FUNCTIONALITY (I.E., WOULD STOW & STAY). AS THE DEFECTIVE BOND IS EFFECTIVELY HIDDEN, THE DRIVER CANNOT EASILY VISUALIZE ANY PROGRESSIVE FAILURE OF THE FATIGUING BOND FAILURE. NEITHER OF DRIVERS RECALLS RECEIVING INFORMATION FROM HONDA WARNING OF THIS POTENTIAL FAILURE OR AVAILABLE REMEDIES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 4 MPH, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT INJURED. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I RECEIVED A PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG RECALL NOTICE JULY 23, 2016. UPON RESEARCH, HONDA RECALL WEBSITE STATES NOTICES WILL GO OUT JUNE23? WHY WAS MY NOTICE NOT RECEIVED UNTIL 30 DAYS LATER? ADDITIONALLY- WE ARE SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE ANOTHER NOTICE "LATE JULY TO AUGUST". AND THE NOTICE SAYS DO NOT LET ANYONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE? THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE! BETWEEN CAR POOL, TAKING KIDS TO SCHOOL, TAKING KIDS TO SPORTS PRACTICES- WHERE ARE THEY ALL SUPPOSED TO SIT? IF YOU CANNOT EXPEDITE REPAIRS, PARTS, OR THE RECALL NOTICE, A FREE RENTAL SHOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE LIABILITY POSITION YOU HAVE JUST PLACED YOURSELF IN IS ABSOLUTELY TRAUMATIC. I HAVE BEEN HEARING ABOUT TANAKA AIR BAGS FOR OVER A YEAR AND ALL THE ASSOCIATED INJURIES AND DEATHS-- AND WE JUST NOW RECEIVE NOTIFICATION?? AND NOW YOUR TELLING US TO WAIT MORE TIME FOR ANOTHER NOTICE? DO PEOPLE'S LIVES NOT MATTER TO YOU, HONDA, OR TANAKA? I HOPE THIS AND OTHER EMAILS ARE USED IN COURT SO COMPLETE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST EVERYONE INVOLVED. GOD FORBID ANYTHING HAPPEN TO MY KIDS- AND TO RECTIFY THE ISSUE, AND SAVE LIVES- YOU ARE SIMPLY SAYING "HERE IS A LATE NOTICE- OH YA, AND WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING BUT WE'LL LET YOU KNOW AT A LATER TIME."

DUE TO HONDA'S ADMITTED POOR PAINT JOB, PAINT BEGAN COMING OFF (ON ROOF FIRST). HONDA SAID THEY EXTENDED WARRANTY, WITHOUT NOTIFYING OWNERS. ALSO SAY IT IS NOT SAFETY RISK. IF THE ROOF RUSTS, THE SUN ROOF WILL CERTAINLY DISMOUNT CAUSING SAFETY ISSUE; IF SIDE PANELS RUST, EXHAUST ENTERS PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CAUSING SAFETY ISSUE. FURTHERMORE, HEADLIGHTS CLOUD TREMENDOUSLY REGARDLESS OF PREVENTATIVE ATTEMPTS. IF DRIVER CAN'T SEE PROPERLY OR ANOTHER CAR CANNOT SEE THE HONDA, IT IS A SAFETY RISK. HONDA AMERICA IS SIMPLY A LAME, PERHAPS ONCE GOOD COMPANY NOW TRYING TO RIDE ON REPUTATION TO SELL POORLY CONSTRUCTED VEHICLES AND DENY ALL LIABILITY FOR FAULTY WORK BY CLAIMING IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. SO FAR, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED, AND I'D LIKE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. HOWEVER, IF HONDA AMERICA DOES NOT OWN THEIR MISTAKES AND FAULTY WORK, CORRECT THE PROBLEMS IT IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A SAFETY BREECH OCCURS.

HONDA RECALL.THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC [XXX], FOR THE VISORS FALLING DUE TO FAILURE OF INTERNAL SPRINGS THAT HOLD THEM IN PLACE, CAUSING OBSTRUCTION OF VISION AS WELL AS A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, CURTTRIGHT HONDA IN ENID OK. I WAS TOLD THE RECALL HAD EXPIRED AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. FOR REASONS UNKNOWN I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL, HAD I KNOWN I CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE TAKEN CORRECTIVE ACTION IN A TIMELY MANNER. I WAS LATE RESPONDING TO THE RECALL NOTICE BUT WHY DOES AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL HAVE AN EXPIRATION DATE, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN DEATH UNDER THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES? THE RECALL WAS EXTENDED 7 YEARS BUT THAT EXTENSION HAS PASSED AS WELL. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT FILED BUT I WAS NOT A PART OF IT. IS THERE ANYONE THAT COULD HELP ME GET THESE DEFECTIVE VISORS REPLACED? THANK YOU,FOR YOUR TIME AND ANY ASSISTANCE YOU COULD PROVIDE. [XXX].

TAKATA RECALL NHTSA RECALL # 16V-346 THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT AGAINST MY HONDA DEALERSHIP. RATHER, IT IS A QUERY OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE. THE DEALERSHIP IS DUE TO REPLACE THE TAKATA PASSENGER AIR BAG INFLATOR ON JULY 16. HOW WILL I BE ABLE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT DEFECTIVE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WHETHER THE INSTALLATION WAS DONE CORRECTLY. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. WE WERE RECENTLY NOTIFIED OF COVERAGE IN THE AIRBAG RECALL AND RECEIVED THE INSTRUCTION TO AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE (CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE) REPAID HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THIS CAUSED ME TO NOTICE THAT THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" INDICATOR WAS NOT ILLUMINATING EVEN WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE DANGEROUS DEFECTIVE AIRBAG REMAINS ACTIVE EVEN WITHOUT A PASSENGER THERE. I CALLED THE HONDA RECALL CENTER AND SPOKE WITH A SUPERVISOR, MS. VANESSA ROBINSON, WHO TOLD ME MY ONLY RECOURSE WAS TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICING TO A DEALER AT MY OWN EXPENSE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG INDICATOR CHECKED. I THINK I CAN REASONABLY TAKE THE CAR'S USER DISPLAY AT FACE VALUE, SUGGESTING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE SENSOR CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO REMAIN ACTIVE, SUCH THAT HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE AN INTERIM MECHANISM TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AS PART OF THE RECALL. I AM PARTICULARLY CONCERNED GIVEN THAT WE USED OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC IN TEXAS FOR MANY YEARS, WHERE I UNDERSTAND THE CLIMATE INCREASES THE RISK FROM THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. THANK YOU, IN ADVANCE, FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING CAR A BURNING SMELL CHECKED COOLANT & WAS EMPTY REFILLED & PARKED CAR, NEXT DAY WENT TO DEALER ,SAID CRACKED HEAD GASKET KEPT OVERNIGHT THEN SAID COOLANT EVAPORATED SAID BURNING CAME FROM PLASTIC BACK ON EXHAUST I SAW THE TECH WHEN HE WAS WORKING ON MY CAR & HE SAID HAD CRACKED HEAD GASKET, THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ME COPY OF DETAILED WORK ORDER JUST MY RECEIPT FOR CHARGES, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 48 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED SMOKING FROM THE HOOD AND OVERHEATED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

REAR TIRES HAVE PREMATURE WEAR FROM INSIDE OUT AND WEARING FAST. CAUSING ALOT OF VIBRATION AS WELL.

SUN VISOR GLUE MELTS IN THE HEAT AND THE SUN VISOR STOPS FUNCTIONING AND CREATES A VISIBILITY PROBLEM. ALSO, PIECES OF PLASTIC CAN FLAKE OFF AND FALL ON THE DRIVER, POTENTIALLY GETTING IN THE DRIVER'S EYE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE HAD SO MANY ISSUES WITH MY CIVIC, NOT LIMITED TO A SCATTERED TRANSMISSION (~110K), A LED BRAKE LIGHT GOING OUT (~90K), AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE THE 10-048 CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK (JUST RECENTLY).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT SMELLED ANTIFREEZE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 135,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND HEARD A CLICKING NOISE. BY THE TIME I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY THE OIL LIGHT WAS ON. MY CAR THEN DIED AND SOON FOUND THE CAR HAD OVERHEATED. I TOOK IT TO HONDA AND THEY SAID IT IS PROBABLY A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK BUT WERE UNABLE TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN MORE THAN 8 YEARS SINCE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS OFFERED FOR THIS PROBLEM.

HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. AS I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY I HAD WHITE SMOKE COME OUT OF MY ENGINE BAY. I PULLED OVER AND CALLED THE TOWING. HAD IT TOWED TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER JUST TO FIND OUT THAT ITS GOT CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. AND THE SAID I AM OUT SIDE OF TIME PERIOD FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BY JUST OVER A MONTH. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE... IF THEY KNOW THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK IS FAULTY THEN HOW CAN THEY PUT A TIME LIMIT ON THE WARRANTY. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR NOT TOO LONG AGO AND NOW I HAVE TO SPEND THOUSANDS TO GET IT TO RUN AGAIN. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL PERIOD....

HELLO! A VERY WELL-KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 06-09 HONDA CIVIC IS A TENDENCY FOR THE ENGINE BLOCKS TO CRACK. FREQUENTING ONLINE FORUMS AND WEBSITES, IT SEEMS A WIDE RANGE OF PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED FROM LESS THAN 1,000 MILES TO UP TO 200,000 MILES. THAT BEING SAID, IT SEEMS THIS CAR IS A LITERAL TIME BOMB. THERE HAVE BEEN INCIDENTS OF PEOPLE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ONLY TO RAPIDLY LOSE POWER TO ALL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING THE BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS IS A PROFOUND SAFETY HAZARD, NOT ONLY TO THE DRIVER, BUT OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL! THAT BEING SAID, HONDA ADMITTED THAT THE TENDENCY FOR BLOCKS TO CRACK WAS DUE A FAULTY CASTING PROCESS. THEY HAD ISSUES AN INITIAL 8 YEAR WARRANTY AND INCREASED THAT TO 10 YEARS. AS OF LATE, MANY CURRENT OWNERS HAVE STILL HAD THEIR BLOCKS CRACKED. ONLY THIS TIME, HONDA IS REFUSING TO FIX THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT. AS SUCH, I WANTED TO BRING ATTENTION TO THIS ISSUE AND HOPE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO ALLEVIATE THIS MATTER. A CAR'S BLOCK UNDER NORMAL MAINTENANCE AND USE SHOULD NEVER CATASTROPHICALLY FAIL, LET ALONE RISK PEOPLE'S LIVES! EVEN IF A RECALL ISN'T ENFORCED, AT LEAST HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR FAULTY ENGINES AND PLACE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TAKATA RECALL *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND ENGINE OVERHEATED, MAKING MY CAR A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD, UNSAFE AND UNDRIVABLE. I TOOK MY HONDA INTO THE DEALERSHIP & THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND OFFERED TO RELPLACE WITH USED ENGINE FOR $4333.00. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE I FOUND PLENTY OF OTHER HONDA OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE CRACK WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT FROM HONDA.

THERE IS A LEAK COMING THROUGH DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WHEN IT RAINS. NO BODY WORK OR ACCIDENTS IN THIS CAR.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN VISORS COME APART AT THE HARD-PLASTIC SEAMS AND FAIL TO RETRACT BACK INTO THE HEADLINER ONCE THEY ARE ENGAGED, LEAVING THEM BLOCKING DRIVER'S VIEW AT ALL TIMES. THEY CANNOT BE ADJUSTED TO ANY GRADUAL POSITIONING. THEY SIMPLY HANG STRAIGHT DOWN. HONDA ADMITTED THE PROBLEM AND HAS SAID THEY ONLY WARRANTED REPLACEMENT FOR 7 YEARS. WHEN CAR WAS IN WARRANTY, DEALER PROMISED HONDA WOULD REPLACE AS LONG AS THE CAR HAD THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THIS IS A SIMPLE ENGINEERING FIX THAT HONDA WILL NOT ADDRESS. IT IS NOW A SAFETY ISSUE AS I CANNOT GET REPLACEMENTS (VISORS LAST, ON AVERAGE 15-18 MONTHS AND MUST BE REPLACED CONSTANTLY) AND THE VISORS NOW HANG, OBSTRUCTING MY OUTWARD VIEW TO THE SIDE AND THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD.

A FEW MONTHS AGO I NOTICED DISCOLORATION OF PAINT ON MY ROOF. IT COULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND I JUST NEVER NOTICED IT. TODAY WHILE GETTING AN OIL CHANGE, THE TECH ADVISED ME THAT HONDA HAD HAD A RECALL ON HONDA CIVICS AND OTHER MODELS TO COVER THE REPAINTING OF FADING AND/OR PEELING PAINT, CLEAR COAT, ETC., ON THE AFFECTED YEAR MODELS. I HAD NEVER BEEN ADVISED OF THE RECALL OR I WOULD HAVE BROUGHT IT IN SOONER.

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC VIN# [XXX] THAT HAS A ENGINE BLOCK HAIR LINE CRACK. I CALLED AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY TOLD ME BASED ON THE VIN THAT I PROVIDED THIS VEHICLE DOESN'T QUALIFY UNDER THE RECALL. SO WAS THIS JUST A COINCIDENCE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD A CRACK ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. THEY VEHICLE IS A DAILY DRIVEN CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE PROBLEM STARTED WHEN MY WIFE NOTICED A COOLANT SMELL. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL. OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAGS. THE LIGHT INDICATING AIRBAG FAILURE LIT UP, SO WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO SAID IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS HAVE BEEN RECALLED, SO WE WONDER WHY WE HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT AND WHY THIS MODEL YEAR WAS NOT RECALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON CHANGING GEARS, THE VEHICLE WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE MOTOR MOUNTS AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THERE WAS BLACK ICE ON THE ROAD THAT CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL. AFTER BEING ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE, ANOTHER VEHICLE REAR ENDED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE GUARDRAIL AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED BACK AND KNEE INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE IT WAS DEEMED DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,000.

ENGINE BLOCK AND HEAD CRACK.

MY PAINT ON MY CAR WAS COMING OFF. HONDA WAS SUPPOSED TO REPAINT IT. THEY HAD USED SOME NEW ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PAINT ON THEIR CARS AND MANY CARS WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT. HONDA, COSTA MESA TOOK PHOTOS OF MY CAR AND SUPPOSEDLY BOOKED ME DOWN FOR A DATE TO BRING MY CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS LATER BEFORE I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET MARRIED. THAT WAS DONE BECAUSE I NEEDED MY CAR FOR TRANSPORTATION AT THAT TIME AND IF THEY REPAINTED IT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO KEEP MY CAR FOR A FEW DAYS TO WEEKS SO THEY "SCHEDULED" IT FOR A TIME I WOULDN'T NEED MY CAR. I BRING MY CAR IN BEFORE MY WEDDING AND HONDA SAID THEY NO LONGER REPAINT THE CARS. I HAVE THE INFO OF THE PERSON WHO HAD TAKEN THE PHOTOS BUT HE WAS NO LONGER WORKING. I CALLED THEM TO MAKE SURE I WAS STILL "SCHEDULED" AND I EVEN SPOKE TO THE NEW PERSON WHO WAS TRANSITIONING INTO THE POSITION WHILE THE CURRENT PERSON WAS STILL THERE AND THEY BOTH ASSURED ME THAT I WAS STILL SCHEDULED FOR MY REPAINT. I CAN'T BELIEVE SUCH A LARGE COMPANY ACTS LIKE THIS. THEY DID NOT PRODUCE QUALITY AND DON'T FIX THEIR MISTAKES. THIS SHOWS THEM TO BE SO DISHONEST AND DISHONORABLE. I USED TO BE LOYAL TO HONDA AND I'M SO DISGUSTED BY THEM NOW. I DEFINITELY DO NOT RECOMMEND A HONDA TO ANYONE ANYMORE AND STEER PEOPLE AWAY FROM SUCH A HORRIBLE COMPANY.

BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS ARE FAILING TO FUNCTION AS INTENDED. THE DRIVER SIDE WAS UNABLE RETURN TO THE STOWED POSITION BLOCKING VISIBILITY FORCING THE DRIVER TO DUCK BELOW IN ORDER THE MAINTAIN VISIBILITY OF THE ROAD WHEN APPROACHING STEEP GRADES.

DRIVER DOOR KEY CYLINDER FAILED AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. COULD NOT ACCESS CAR ON A SUB ZERO NIGHT AND HAD TO WAIT 2 HOURS FOR EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE. DRIVER'S DOOR IS THE ONLY KEYED DOOR ON THIS 4 DOOR MODEL. WE ARE NOW ON OUR THIRD DOOR CYLINDER SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW. LAST FAILURE WAS 3 YEARS AGO. REPAIR COSTS FOR THIS DEFECT NOW TOTAL AROUND $2,000. FOR THE SAME DOOR!!! HAVE NEVER OWNED ANY OTHER CAR WHERE THERE WAS A SINGLE LOCK FAILURE UNTIL THIS CIVIC (AND OUR FAMILY HAS OWNED 15 OVER THE YEARS). OF COURSE, HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE POSITION IS "NOT OUR PROBLEM AS THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY" THIS IS CLEARLY A SUPPLIER DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT. VERY DISAPPOINTING.

HAVING SAME ISSUE IT SEEMS IS WIDELY COMMON FROM MY RESEARCH WHERE THE RIGHT MOTOR MOUNT FAILS AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO EXCESSIVE KNOCKING OF THE MOTOR. WE'VE NOTICED IT FOR A WHILE NOW, BUT IT'S JUST GETTING WORSE AND WORSE AT LOW IDLE TO LOW SPEED, BUT ONCE RPM IS OVER 1K IT IS FINE AND STRAIGHTENS OUT.

SHOULD YOU HAPPEN TO LOSE BATTERY POWER, HONDA'S "IMMOBILIZER" ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM WILL LOSE ITS MEMORY AND UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE THE OWNER'S KEYS. HONDA'S SOLUTION IS TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED INTO THE LOCAL DEALER WHERE THE UNIT AND KEYS NEED TO BE RE-CODED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE IN A YEAR'S TIME. NOT ONLY IS THIS COSTLY, INCREDIBLY INCONVENIENT, BUT A SAFETY HAZARD SHOULD IT HAPPEN ON A ROAD TRIP. HONDA REFUSES TO DO ANY ACCOMMODATION OR FIX OF THIS PROBLEM.

FUEL GAUGE OPERATES INTERMITTENTLY. GAUGE MAY SHOW AS 'FULL' WHEN EMPTY; OR INDICATE 'EMPTY' WHEN FULL. AT TIMES, GAUGE LIGHTING IS OFF AND WILL NOT REFLECT EITHER 'FULL' OR 'EMPTY' FUEL TANK. HAS ALSO INDICATED AS CONTAINING FUEL IN TANK, WHEN IN REALITY IS NEAR EMPTY, WHICH MAY CAUSE DRIVER TO RUN OUT OF FUEL WITHOUT SUFFICIENT WARNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED OVERHEATING. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART. AFTER WAITING SOME TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE HAD A CRACK AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

MY HONDA CIVIC EX 2006 2 DOOR COUPE HAS THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT OFF. AS I REMOVED THE 3RD LED BRAKE LIGHT AND LOOK AT THE YOUTUBE, GOOGLE AND FORUMS, A LOT OF THE HONDA CIVIC EX 2006 HAS THE SAME ISSUE WHERE THE SOLDERING ON BOTH SIDES COMES UNDONE DUE TO VIBRATION BUT POOR SOLDERING CONNECTION. I HAVE SEEN ALL HONDA CIVICS 2006 EX WITH THE SAME ISSUE ON THE ROADS WHERE THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT IT OFF. I FIXED IT BY RE-SOLDERING, BUT THE WIRE IS SO TIGHT AND NOT MUCH ROOM TO RESOLDER - EVENTUALLY THE SOLDERING COMES LOOSE AGAIN. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND NOT A DEALER TO CHARGE $1000 TO REPLACE THE LED LIGHT AS MANY HONDA CIVICS 2006 EX ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

BARELY 20 DAYS AFTER THE WARRANTY MY CAR STOPPED ON A HIGHWAY WITH WHITE FUMES UNDER THE HOOD. WITH BRAKES, TRANSMISSION, ACCELERATOR NOT WORKING, I HAD LITERALLY RELY ON MY LUCK TO GET IT OUT OF THE LAST LANE ONTO A SHOULDER. IT WAS SCARY. I TOWED THE CAR TO A NEAREST DEALER. HE DIAGNOSED CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK DUE TO OVER HEATING, COOLANT LEAKAGE. I HAD REPLACE THE ENGINE FOR 3494.90$.

REAR INSIDE TIRE WEAR. PUT AN AFTERMARKET KIT IN AND STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ABNORMAL TIRE WEAR.

REAR OF CIVIC "SWAYS" WHEN GOING OVER ANY HIGHWAY IMPERFECTION AT ANY SPEED BUT RECOVERS WHEN ROAD SMOOTHS OUT.

PURCHASED 4 GOODYEAR VIVA 2 TIRES, FROM WALMART ON 10/27/2014, FOR THE FIRST FEW MONTHS THEY WERE GREAT. AFTER AWHILE I KEPT NEEDING TO GET THEM REBALANCED DUE TO VIBRATING, THEY STARTED GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER. HAD TO KEEP GETTING MY CAR ALIGNED EVERY OTHER MONTH. TODAY ON 10/22/2015, DRIVING STRAIGHT ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 70MPH ON INTERSTATE 376, I STARTED HEARING THIS AWFUL NOISE, I THOUGHT IT WAS A WHEEL BEARING THAT KEPT GOING BAD. THEN THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE, AND I STARTED SMELLING BURNT RUBBER AND SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE BACK. I PULLED OFF THE CLOSET EXIT AND INTO THE CLOSET PARKING LOT, TO FIND THAT THE TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT ON THE SIDE WALL. I WENT TO THE WALMART THAT I PURCHASED THESE TIRES FROM. SINCE I PURCHASED ROAD HAZARD THEY REPLACED THE TIRE AT A PRORATED RATE. BUT THEY DON'T SELL VIVA 2'S ANYMORE, THEY REPLACED IT WITH A VIVA 3. THE OTHER 3 VIVA'S ON THE CAR, ARE NOW WEARING ABNORMAL ON THE SIDEWALL, WALMART INSISTS THAT I CURBED THEM AND THAT WAS THE PROBLEM, WHEN I KNOW I NEVER DID. SO THEY WONT REPLACE THEM UNLESS SOMETHING HAPPENS TO THEM OR THERE IS A RECALL. I EVEN HAD TO CALL CORPORATE TO TRY AND GET THE REPLACED AND THEY DIDNT WANT TO HEAR IT. IF IT WAS A FRONT TIRE AND ME GOING 70MPH, THAT PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE ENDED SO PRETTY. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH THESE TIRES ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS WERE OPENED WITHOUT THE VEHICLE BEING OCCUPIED. IN ADDITION, THE EXTERIOR LIGHTING BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A TIRE ROTATION AND ALIGNMENT. THE MAINTENANCE WAS DECLINED DUE TO A FAILURE WITH BOTH REAR TIRES. THE DETAILS WERE NOT PROVIDED TO THE CONTACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 01/11/2017*CT; SIMILAR COMPLAINTS WERE NOTED NATIONWIDE FOR CIVIC 2006, WRONG PARTS WERE INSTALLED AS OEM IN THE NEW CAR SOLD UPDATED 04/16/18*JB *TR

WHILE EXITING THE PARKING LOT, I ADJUSTED THE SUN VISOR AND IT BROKE, HITTING ME ON THE FOREHEAD WHILE OBSCURING MY VIEW. I HAD RECEIVED A NOTICE OF A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WASN'T A RECALL ON THIS PART BUT, YES, THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT EXPIRED IN 2013. SHE THEN ADVISED ME TO CALL HONDA DIRECTLY. HONDA'S RESPONSE WAS THAT "WE SATISFIED THE COURT ORDER"AND THAT MY VISOR WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN REPLACED BACK IN 2013 AS IT WAS NOT BROKEN. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ON THE INTERNET, I SEE THAT THIS TENDS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE, EVEN AFTER THE VISORS ARE REPLACED. I WAS FORTUNATE THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED.

THE PAINT IS PEELING OFF REALLY BAD & MAKING BIG WHITE SPOTS ALL OVER ENTIRE CAR & IT'S A BLUE CAR. ALSO THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR CAME COMPLETELY OFF!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE AND THE IMA LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VOLTAGE CONVERTER MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V106000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

PULLING IN TO PARK VEHICLE, CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CAR WOULDN'T STOP. CAR WENT OVER EMBANKMENT AND THROUGH A FENCE BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. INSURANCE COMPANY JUST TOTALED THE CAR. UNKNOWN WHETHER ACCELERATOR AND BRAKES WERE FAILING. CAR WAS IN GOOD MECHANICAL CONDITION PRIOR TO ACCIDENT AND WAS SERVICED IN LAST 90 DAYS. SUSPECT ACCELERATOR MALFUNCTION SENDING VEHICLE INTO OUT-OF-CONTROL SITUATION. CAR HAD NO KNOWN RECALL ISSUES.

VEHICLE TURNED OFF SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING, WHILE IN MOTION. MECHANIC CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK THAT CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STOP. PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER AND VEHICLE IS INOPERABLE, BUT HONDA WOULD NOT PROVIDE A LOANER VEHICLE.

VEHICLE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT AT LOW SPEED. CEL CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING AND VEHICLE WENT INTO "LIMP MODE". VEHICLE COULD NOT GO OVER 10MPH. CAR RETURNED HOME AND CODE INDICATED MISFIRE IN 3RD CYLINDER. COOLANT WAS EXTREMELY LOW AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF SMOKE/STEAM COULD BE SEEN COMING FROM TAILPIPE. PRESSURE TEST OF COOLANT SYSTEM REVEALED LEAKS IN ALL CYLINDERS (PRIMARILY C3). COMPRESSION TEST INDICATED CRACK IN HEAD (NEAR INTAKE). POSSIBILITY DUE TO OVERHEATING AND WARPING OF HEAD. CALLED HONDA AMERICA TO VERIFY THAT ISSUES IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY (SPECIFICALLY TSB 10-048). HONDA AMERICA DENIED WARRANTY BECAUSE THE TSB ONLY COVERS SPECIFIC EXTERNAL CRACKS IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE CRACKS ON THIS VEHICLE WERE LIKELY INSIDE THE HEAD, POSSIBLY INSIDE OF CYLINDER. CAUSE OF INITIAL OVERHEATING REMAINS UNIDENTIFIED. HONDA AMERICA MAINTAINS THAT THIS WARRANTY IS SPECIFIC TO EXTERNAL CRACKS.

2006 HONDA CIVIC EX SEDAN. APPROXIMATELY 94,000 MILES AND HAVE WORN THROUGH 3 SETS OF TIRES. TIRES GET ROTATED AND BALANCED EVERY 7,500 MILES AND TIRES ARE ALWAYS GOODYEAR BRAND. ON 8/15/2015 NOTICED THAT 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAD A FLAT TIRE (REAR PASSENGER SIDE). AFTER REMOVING WHEEL AND INSPECTING TIRE IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE TIRE HAD BEEN COMPLETELY WORN THROUGH ON INTERIOR TREAD (WIRE MESH WAS WORN THROUGH AND ACTUAL HOLE HAD DEVELOPED IN TIRE). IT WAS SHOCKING AN COMPLETE TIRE FAILURE AND BLOWOUT HAD NOT TAKEN PLACE WHILE DRIVING. INDEPENDENT GARAGE SERVICED THE VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THAT CONTROL ARMS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED/AMENDED (ESTIMATED COST OF $1100.00) AND AT MINIMUM A NEW TIRE WAS NEEDED AS WELL AS NEW ALIGNMENT. NEW TIRE PUT ON, BALANCING AND ALIGNMENT OF ALL TIRES/WHEELS - $210.00 AS OF 8/18/2015. IT IS LIKELY THAT THE FAULTY CONTROL ARM ISSUES ARE TO BLAME FOR THE PREMATURE WEAR ON PREVIOUS AND CURRENT SET OF TIRES.

AS THE SINGLE OWNER AND DRIVER OF AN 06 HONDA CIVIC THAT I PURCHASED NEW AND PAID FOR IN FULL, I HAVE FULL SERVICE FOR THE VEHICLE AS RECOMMENDED AT THE DEALER SITE WHERE IT IS PURCHASED. I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED FOR LUBE/OIL/& OIL FILTER CHANGE ON 7/27/2015 AND THEY ALSO PERFORM THE MULTIPOINT INSPECTION. IN JUST 12 DAYS, ENGINE OVERHEATING OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON I-95. UPON MY RETURN HOME FROM WORK, I HEARD A HUMMING I HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE. AS I SLOWED DOWN TO LISTEN CLOSER TO DETERMINE ORIGIN, I SEE THAT NO ENGINE LIGHTS. AFTER FEW MINUTES, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE INDICATED SEVER OVERHEATING, THEN THE CAR SPUTTERS, RAPIDLY LOSING POWER -I BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY OUT OF TRAFFIC ON I-95 WHEN THE CAR SHUTS OFF AND SMOKE. I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING OR EVEN A HINT OF A PROBLEM; NO NOISES, NO DASH LIGHTS ON, NO ISSUES WITH IGNITION, GEARS, OR DRIVING PERFORMANCE. I HAD TO ARRANGE THE CAR TOW TO MY DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT. AFTER THAT, THE DEALER REPORTS ENGINE IS COMPLETELY BURNED, NOT DRIVABLE AND NOT REPAIRABLE. THE OIL STRIP BURNS HALF WAY. THEY DONT KNOW WHAT CAUSES THE ENGINE OVERHEATED. THIS OVERHEATING PROBLEM IS NOT DUE TO THE CRACKS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE WARRANTY EXTENSION. THEY DON'T COVER THE REPLACEMENT COST. IF WE WANT TO REPLACE A ENGINE, A USED ENGINE BLOCK IS $5600. IT LOOKS LIKE I WILL NEED TO RENT A CAR FOR AT LEAST NEXT TWO WEEKS BECAUSE I AM STILL NEGOTIATING WITH MY DEALER ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IF IT IS COVERED BY ANY WARRANTY. THEY ARE UNABLE TO ANSWER ME WHAT CAUSE THE ISSUE WHEN THE CAR JUST FINISHED ITS SERVICE AND EVERYTHING INCLUDING ENGINE CONDITION IS GREAT. I COULD GO ON AND ON AND ON WITH THE COSTS INVOLVED, TIME INVOLVED AND THE INCREDIBLE INCONVENIENCE OF THIS EVENT.. NOT TO MENTION THE SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY!!!

TIRE WEAR HAS BEEN UNEVEN IN THE REAR TIRES, I HAD RECEIVED A REPAIR NOTICE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO BUT I WAS OUT OF THE COUNTRY FOR A LONG TIME AND MISSED OUT ON THE REPAIR WINDOW FOR REPLACEMENT OF TIRES AND SUPER CONTROL ARM? I THINK THE RESULTING TIRE WEAR IS THE FAULT OF KNOWN DEFECTIVE PARTS AND HONDA IS ACTING VERY RESPONSIBLY IN NOT RECALING FOR THIS FAILURE/DEFECT

WHILE DRIVING MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. I TOOK IT TO THE NEAREST AUTOZONE TO GET THE BATTERY CHECKED. THEY CHECKED THE BATTERY AND THE MANAGER OF AUTOZONE TOLD ME IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY BUT THE ALTERNATOR NOT GIVING THE CAR ENOUGH POWER. HE TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE IT TO LONG OR I COULD GET STRANDED. I WAS NEAR A RELATIVES HOUSE, WHILE DRIVING TO MY RELATIVES HOUSE MY A/C AND RADIO WHICH WERE ON AT THE TIME TURNED OFF, AND SEVERAL LIGHTS OF THE DASHBOARD CAME ON. I WAS PANICKED BUT MADE IT SAFELY TO MY RELATIVES HOUSE. A MECHANIC CAME TO MY RELATIVES HOUSE, AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A SHORT-CIRCUIT, THE WIRES WERE BURNT AND CAUSED THE ALTERNATOR TO CRACK. THE MECHANIC SAID TO ME IN SHOCK THAT MY VEHICLE COULD HAVE EXPLODED. THE WIRES WHICH ARE 'THE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS' HAD CAUGHT FIRE AT THE TIP WHICH CONNECTS TO THE ALTERNATOR. THE CAR COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE.

I NEVER GOT INFORMED ABOUT THIS SETTLEMENT CLAIM HTTP://SETTLEMENT-CLAIMS.COM/CONTROLARM/NOTICE.HTML 2 YEARS AGO. HONDA SERVICE FIRST FOUND A PROBLEM ON REAR CONTROL ARMS AND TIRE WEAR ON MARCH 12TH. WHY DIDN'T THEY NOTICE PROBLEM BEFORE MARCH 12TH? HONDA SERVICE GAVE ME A PRICE OF PARTS AND LABOR. IT'S $255 ON PARTS (CONTROL ARMS) AND $150 LABOR. UPDATED 12/21/2015*JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

SRS LIGHT STAYS ON AND AIRBAGS WON'T DEPLOY IN EVENT OF ACCIDENT. NO RECALL ISSUED TO FIX MUST PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR FAULTY DESIGN, SAFETY ISSUE. KNOWN ISSUE AMONG HONDA CIVIC 2006 OWNERS.

WAS DRIVING DOWN A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET GETTING READY TO TURN, DRIVER AIR BAG, PASSENGER CURTAIN, AND SIDE SEAT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, THE SEAT BELT IS NO LONGER IN WORKING ORDER BECAUSE OF THIS...AND HERE WAS NO REASON FOR THESE TO DEPLOY, NO IMPACT TO ANYTHING WHATSOEVER. HONDA ASK ABOUT POT HOLES AND IF WE ENCOUNTERED ONE, NOTHING TO THE AT EFFECT EITHER. I WAS HIT IN MY CHEST AND STOMACH, PASSENGER WAS HIT IN ARM AND SIDE OF HEAD FROM THESE. I AM IN MY FIRST TRIMESTER OF PREGNANCY. BOTH MYSELF,THE FIREBRAND PASSING WENT TO DR. HONDA CORP WAS CALLED AND NOTIFIED, REGIONAL MANAGER CAME TO LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO HAVE CAR LOOKED AT. HONDA REP INSISTED THIS WOULD NOT JUST HAPPEN, BUT IT DID, AS I WAS IN VEHICLE AND THE DRIVER. AFTER HAVING CAR INSPECTED, THEY INFORMED US THEY IT WAS IMPACT RELATED. THERE WERE NO DAMAGES, DENTS OR ANYTHING TO SUPPORT THIS "THEORY". THEY REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO THE CAR EXCEPT WANT TO CHARGE ME A FEE FOR THIS SERVICE. THE ESTIMATE GIVEN TO TAKE CARE OF MY VEHICLE WAS $6,500.00. DID I FAIL TO MENTION THAT PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY, DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT WAS A SO CALLED "IMPACT". HONDA HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO MAKE RESTITUTION IN ANY WAY, CLOSED OUR FILE AND LEFT US TO TAKE CARE OF IT. REFUSED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FRO A HONDA PRODUCT. *TR

TRANSMISSION IS FAILING IT IS FLARING. RPM RISES TO 6-7K RPM AND IT STILL AROUND 20-30 MPH. AND IT SLOWING INCREASING SPEED. THIS IS DANGEROUS, WHEN I AM TRYING TO MERGE IN TRAFFIC I DON'T HAVE THE ACCELERATION I MERGE ON HIGHWAY OR JUST GETTING ON A STREET. *TR

HOLE IN THE CONDENSER CAUSED BY SMALL PEBBLE PUNCTURING IT. THERE IS LITTLE PROTECTION IN THE GRILL OF THE CAR WHICH EASILY ALLOWS SUCH ROAD DEBRIS TO DAMAGE THE CONDENSER. THIS IS A FLAW IN THE DESIGN ON THE CAR THAT SHOULD BE FIXED OR AT LEAST PUT UNDER WARRANTY.
