ON OCTOBER 22, 2018 I FINALLY GOT IN TOUCH WITH SOMEONE AT HONDA IN THE PRESIDENT'S OFFICE WHO SAID THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY WOULD ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THEY TRANSFERRED ME TO AN AGENT WHO WAS CREATED A TICKET FOR MY COMPLAINT. THE TICKET NUMBER IS [XXX]. THEY SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME AND THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. WHEN I CALLED BACK IN ON TUESDAY OCTOBER 23, 2018 THEN TOLD ME THAT THEY DON'T WANT ADDRESS THIS ISSUE UNLESS I PAY FOR A HONDA DEALERSHIP TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON MY CAR AND I PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. FOR THE DIAGNOSTICS. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF MY HONDA BUT IF HONDA ADMITTED TO ME THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, I FEEL HONDA SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AT NO CHARGE TO ME.

IS IT COMMON TO BRAKE AXLE? OR IS THERE ANY CHANCES TO BRAKE WHILE REPLACING WHOLE BREAKS(FRONT WHEELS)? I DID MY INSPECTION AND EMISSIONS LAST WEEK @ J L FREED. THEY WERE SOME RECOMMENDATION ABOUT BRAKE REPLACEMENT. I ASKED THEM TO GO FOR IT AND THEY REPLACED BRAKES AND PASSED INSPECTION AND EMISSIONS. VERY NEXT DAY, WHILE I PULL BACK MY CAR FROM DRIVE WAY AND SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. ENGINE WAS RUNNING BUT IT WAS MOVING FORWARD OR REVERSE. AT THE END, I DROPPED OF MY CAR(BY TOWED) BACK TO J L FREED, THEY SAID, SOME REASON AXLE IS BROKEN. I STATED THAT, IT MAY BE HAPPENED WHILE YOUR TECH WERE CHANGING FRONT BRAKES. THEY WERE NOT READY TO LISTEN AND DENIED THAT WE DIDN'T BRAKE IT. I PAID THEM TO REPLACE MY CAR AXLE BUT I WASN'T HAPPY ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT READY TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITIES. PLEASE ADVISE.

I REPLACED IT ONCE IN LATE 2014 AND NOW IT NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN IN 2017. HOW DOES THIS NOT OBSTRUCT NIGHTTIME DRIVING? HOW DO YOU BUILD A GOOD ENGINE YET FAIL YEAR AFTER YEAR ON A LOUSY SUN VISOR?

Summary

THE ORIGINAL DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WAS REPLACED IN 2014 DUE TO BREAKING APART ON THE PIVOTING SIDE AND NOW THE 2ND DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR IS BROKEN. THIS CAR IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND TWO DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISORS HAVE BROKEN DUE TO THE SAME DESIGN FLAW. NOW THE CAR NEEDS YET A 3RD DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR. THIS IS HIGHLY UNUSUAL AND IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW DUE TO NOT REMAINING IN THE NORMAL, STOWED POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN NEEDED TO BLOCK THE SUN ON A BRIGHT DAY IT DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE INTENDED DEPLOYED POSITION, BUT ONLY HANGS VERTICALLY WHICH IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD, NOT TO MENTION DISTRACTING THE DRIVER'S CONCENTRATION WHILE DRIVING. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MAY CAUSE A DRIVER TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY. THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN NOTED ON EARLIER HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES THAT DID REQUIRE A RECALL.

Summary

TAKATA RECALL - MY COMPLAINT IS WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT IS TAKING FOR PARTS TO BECOME AVAILABLE TO REPAIR A HONDA CIVIC I PURCHASED FOR MY DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 INDICATING THAT THE 'REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016'. I ALSO WAS ADVISED I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED I WAS ADVISED: "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." AS OF TODAY, DECEMBER 30, 2016, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE 2ND LETTER. IT IS EXTREMELY STRESSFUL FOR A MOTHER TO HAVE HER CHILD SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SHE KNOWS THIS POSES A DANGER. HOWEVER, WHEN THE CAR IS USED FOR A SINGLE MOM WITH THREE CHILDREN, THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD COMPENSATE FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE CAR AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. THANK YOU FOR READING MY CONCERN. *TR

IT COMES AND GOES.MOST OF THE TIME YOU SMELL IT. IF YOU PUT CLIMATE CONTROL IN RETICULATION THERE IS NO SMELL OF RAW FUEL AT ALL.DEALER CANNOT FIND ANY LEAKS I CAN'T EITHER.

WENT TO HONDA DEALER THIS WEEK. ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS SINCE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VISORS. HONDA SERVICE REP SAID NONE. FOUND YOUR WEBSITE MENTIONING RECALL WITH AIR BAGS THAT DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT, ALSO COMPLAINTS (NOT RECALL) WITH VISORS. BOTH SUN VISORS HAVE SEPARATED AT SEAMS, SAME PROBLEM AS MY 2006 CIVIC. UNFORTUNATELY BY THE TIME I HEARD ABOUT RECALL I HAD TRADED MY CAR IN. BUT IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM, THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP AND THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE HONDA SERVICE REP SAID NO RECALLS. HONDA DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY $63 PLUS TAX FOR A NEW DRIVER VISOR (FORGET REPLACING PASSENGER VISOR). IT SHOULD BE RECALLED SINCE IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE PAST CIVIC MODELS. NOW NEED TO PURSUE THEM ON AIR BAG RECALL SINCE I WASN'T AWARE OF THIS AND HE SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS WHEN AT HONDA DEALER THIS WEEK. *TR

Summary

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED OF TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY, AS WELL AS ON STREETS, THE CAR SIMPLY SHUTS OFF. THIS OCCURS REGARDLESS OF THE LEVEL OF FUEL, EVEN WHEN IT IS FULL. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED AND MAINTAINED PER RECOMMENDATIONS BY HONDA. IT IS NOT A BATTERY ISSUE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE CAR IS ABLE TO START AGAIN. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN IT HAPPENS. MY DAUGHTER TOOK THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AT FIRST THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG SO THEY "RELEASED" IT BACK TO HER. UNFORTUNATELY, IT STALLED OUT AGAIN WHILE SHE DROVE IT SO SHE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAVE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE THE "STALL OUT"THEMSELVES BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE CAUSE. THEY HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH HONDA ENGINEERS TO INVESTIGATE, BUT IT IS UNCLEAR IF THEY HAVE RULED OUT A DEFECTIVE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, IGNITION PROBLEM,OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM OR OTHER ISSUE. THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR THREE WEEKS.

HE TOLD ME HE ORDERED THE PART AND WHEN IT WAS READY SOMEONE FROM HONDA WOULD CALL ME AND HELP ME MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ME TO BRING MY CAR IN TO FIX IT. HE TOLD ME IT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE 2 WEEKS. LATE JULY I FINALLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA INFORMING ME ABOUT THE RECALL. AT THIS TIME IT HAD BEEN 3 WEEKS SINCE THE PART WAS SUPPOSEDLY ORDERED, I CALLED HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SEE IF THE PART WAS IN YET AND THEY SAID IF I DIDN'T RECEIVE A CALL FROM THEM THEN ITS NOT IN YET. I ASKED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP TO CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE PART WAS ORDERED AND SHE SAID SHE COULD NOT CHECK AND I HAD TO WAIT FOR THE CALL.

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS MY 2007 CIVIC WHERE IT SEPARATES AT THE SEEM AND THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE. IT HAS DROPPED TWICE AND CAUSED AN OBSTRUCTION WHERE I HAD TO HOLD THE VISOR UP AND OUT OF THE WAY AND DRIVE THROUGH AN BUSY INTERSECTION WITH ONE HAND. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND RECALLED FOR MY 2007 CIVIC MODEL BUT NOT EXTENDED TO THE 2011 CIVIC MODEL, BUT IT IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. IS THIS DEFECTIVE PART STILL BEING PUT INTO CURRENT MODELS OR HAS THIS BEEN REDESIGNED? IF NOT, WHY WASN'T THIS ISSUED EXTENDED TO THE 2011 MODEL YEAR?

Summary

WE PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE AS A CERTIFIED CAR IN 2012. AFTER DRIVING FOR A WEEK OR SO I NOTICE THAT THE CAR VIBRATE OR SHAKES WHEN IT IS ON IDLE. IT IS EVEN WORSE WHEN AC IS ON. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT SOMETIME IT HAPPEN SOMETIME IT DOESN'T. I HAVE MADE A COMPLAINT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. I WAS EVEN ADVICE BY THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT TO USE PREMIUM GAS SPECIFICALLY " CHEVRON GAS STATION". BUT DIDN'T SOLVE ANYTHING. I COULDN'T REALLY PROVE IT IS SHAKING BECAUSE IT IS ON AND OFF. JUST STUMBLE IN TO THIS WEBSITE I WANT TO SHARE MY FRUSTRATION TOO. AT 43000 MILES IT IS THE SAME SHAKING VIBRATING THAT IS HAPPENING. I'VE REPLACED ALL TIRES AT 32000 BECAUSE IT WAS ILLEGAL TO DRIVE ON IT SINCE IT WAS BALD. REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES AT 40K SO I MIGHT BE HAVING SOME ISSUE WITH THAT TOO. I OWN A 2006 HONDA PILOT WITH 120K MILES ON IT AND THAT SUV DRIVES WAY SMOOTHER THAN MY CIVIC. FOR MY PILOT THE BRAKE LASTED FOR 70K MILES BEFORE REPLACING IT. *TR

SITTING IN THE DRIVERS SEAT, THE PART BETWEEN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. I PULL UP TO STOP SIGN, AND ROAD LOOKS CLEAR, BUT WHEN I START TO PULL OUT, I JUST MISS A CAR OR TRUCK THAT WAS CAUGHT IN THAT ONE BLIND SPOT.

Summary

HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ENCOUNTERS WHERE I ALMOST HAVE CAR ACCIDENTS BECAUSE BRAKES WILL NOT GRAB. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I STOPPED GOING TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE BECAUSE EVERY TIME I TOOK IT TO GET CHECKED OUT THEY SAID IT WAS FUNCTIONING IN PERFECT CONDITION. I HAVE CHANGED MY BRAKES AND ROTORS AT LEAST 4 DIFFERENT TIMES EVEN AFTER I BOUGHT CERAMIC BRAKES AND HEAVY DUTY ROTORS, AND TIRES ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. UPON COMPLAINING TO HONDA'S CORPORATE OFFICE I WAS GIVEN A $200.00 GIFT CARD THAT PRETTY MUCH WENT RIGHT BACK FOR REPAIRS.JUST FROM 3 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP HAVE SPENT OVER $3,000.00 IN REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE FEES. THESE CARS MIGHT CONTAIN A FACTORY DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE. IF IT WASN'T FOR THE 22 YEARS EXPERIENCE OF DRIVING IN THE LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA AREA I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HAD MORE THAN ONE ACCIDENT ALREADY. *TR

A CERTIFIED USED CAR FROM DEALER OWNED SINCE 10-24-2013 I EXPERIENCE POWER SURGES WHEN STOPPED AT STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT. IT ONLY HAPPENS ONCE IN A WHILE WHERE RPM'S RACE TO 3,500 RPM FOR A FEW SECONDS AND LEAVES NO ERROR CODE SO IT'S HARD FOR THEM TO TROUBLE SHOOT. I HAD CAR AT SHOP 4 DIFFERENT TIMES. ON 1-27-14 I DROP OFF CAR FOR RPM PROBLEM WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC AND SOME OTHER INCIDENTS. SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOKS OVER CAR AND FINDS NOTHING WRONG. ON 3-20-14 I DROP OFF CAR, FOR SAME PROBLEM AS NOTED ABOVE. SERVICE DEPT. LOOKS AND FINDS 2 PCM UPDATES FROM HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN AND REPROGRAMMED PGM-FI ID: NAA740 AND A/T NAA670 FAILED P/N: 37820-RNA-A75 ON 5-21-14 I DROP OFF CAR FOR SAME PROBLEM AS ABOVE AND FELT LIKE CAR ENGINE SPEED WAS ON EVEN ON HIGHWAY ONE MORNING. SERVICE DEPT. PREFORMED PCM/ECV RESET AND CKP RE-LEARN ON 7-21-14 I DROP OFF CAR FOR SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME CAR RACED TO 3,500 RPM FOR 7 SECONDS WHILE FOOT IS ON BRAKE. DANGEROUS (SAFTEY)? SERERICE DEPT. CLEARED PCM OF TP SENSOR READINGS. PERFORMED RELEARN FOR TP SENSOR. COMPLETED THE PCM RE-LEARN. COMPLETED IDLE RE-LEARN. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG THIS CAN OR WILL LAST???

RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING THIS WILL BE THE 3RD TIME TO CHANGE BREAKS WITHIN A 2.5 YEARS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE.

Summary

THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY HONDA CIVIC HAD TO BE REPLACED THE FIRST TIME AT 17,000 MILES. IT HAD FAILED RIGHT AT THE END OF THE HONDA 1 YEAR WARRANTY (THE FIRST DATE IS ESTIMATED BUT I CAN DIG IT OUT FROM THE HONDA DEALER IF THIS BECOMES AN ISSUE) I HAVE ONLY THE ESTIMATED FIRST DATE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A FLUKE AND HONDA COVERED IT UNDER WARRANTY SO I DIDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT IT. HOWEVER, MY NEXT SET OF BRAKES FAILED AT 15,000 MILES. THE ACTUAL DATE WAS 7/8/2013 ON THIS FAILURE. AGAIN THEY HAVE WARANTIED THE BRAKES. I AM ON MY 3RD SET OF BRAKES AND THE CAR HAS NOT EVEN HIT 40-50,000 MILES. THAT IS IF MY BRAKES WERE BEING RIDDEN HARD. AT SOME POINT I AM CONCERNED THAT HONDA WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM THAT APPEARS TO BE WELL KNOWN. THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEIR BRAKING SYSTEM ON THE HONDA CIVICS. IT APPEARS THEY ARE NOT RECALLING THIS AND ARE LEAVING PEOPLE TWISTING IN THE WIND. I DON'T KNOW OF A MORE CRITICAL COMPONENT TO A VEHICLES SAFETY THAN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. IT CAN HARM BOTH DRIVER, PEDESTRIAN OR OTHER MOTORISTS AND CAUSE A FINANCIAL CALAMITY TO BOTH DRIVER AND OTHER PARTIES. PLEASE MAKE HONDA FIGURE OUT THIS PROBLEM AND PROVIDE A SOLUTION SO THAT WE CAN DRIVE A SAFE CAR. THERE IS A LAWSUIT FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM WITH HONDA, I PREFER NOT TO GET INVOLVED INTO THIS BUT RATHER HAVE THEM FIX THIS PROBLEM. OTHER THAN THAT IT HAS BEEN A GOOD VEHICLE. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A FINANCIAL REWARD I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED AND PROPERLY ENGINEERED SO THAT THE BRAKES WON'T FAIL PREMATURELY. IT CAN BE COSTLY IF I HAVE TO REPLACE MY BRAKES ONCE A YEAR. *TR

I WAS STOPPED IN A PARKING GARAGE AND INTENDED TO PULL INTO AN OPEN SPACE ON MY LEFT. I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT AND MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. IT CRASHED INTO THE CAR TO THE RIGHT OF THE OPEN SPACE AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE, PUSHING THE OTHER CAR INTO THE CAR TO ITS RIGHT. I WAS PRESSING THE BRAKES DURING THE ENTIRE INCIDENT BUT THEY WERE NOT FUNCTIONAL. MY CAR FINALLY PUSHED THE OTHER CAR OUT OF THE WAY AND MY CAR SLAMMED INTO THE CONCRETE BLOCK IN FRONT OF THE OPEN SPACE AND STOPPED. HAD THE CONCRETE BLOCK NOT BEEN THERE, I WOULD HAVE FLOWN OVER THE SIDE OF THE THIRD LEVEL OF THIS PARKING GARAGE. MY FOOT WAS IN NO WAY ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT WAS ON THE BRAKE THE ENTIRE TIME. ALSO, A NON-HONDA MECHANIC EXPERIENCED THE SAME REVVING ISSUE WHEN HE INSPECTED THE CAR AFTER THE INCIDENT. HOWEVER, HONDA CLAIMS THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AND WILL NOT REFUND US THE COST OF DAMAGES WE PAID OUT OF POCKET.

ON 03-16-2013 I WAS DRIVING ON I-5 FREEWAY NORTH THROUGH ORANGE COUNTY CA. WHEN I TRIED TO SLOW DOWN, MY CAR`S BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT ANY RESISTANCE AND THE CAR DIDN'T SLOW DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BY HITTING THE CURB. THERE WERE NO DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS LIT AT ANY TIME INDICATING TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. I HAD CAR TOWED TO NEAREST HONDA DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME I MUST HAVE DRIVEN OVER A PIECE OF RUBBER DEBRIS. THIS PIECE OF RUBBER DAMAGED RIGHT WHEEL EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE, CAUSING RIGHT REAR WHEEL TO DRAG AND BOIL THE BRAKE FLUID, THUS CAUSING TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE WITHOUT ANY WARNING AT ALL.I FOUND OUT BOTH REAR BRAKES WERE DAMAGED, EVEN THOUGH ONLY THE RIGHT EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE WAS DAMAGED. I HAD TO PAY$1300 FOR REPAIRS EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS UNDER FULL FACTORY WARRANTY. I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO AND ASKED FOR AN EXPLANATION HOW IS THE BRAKE SYSTEM ON 2011 HONDA CIVIC DESIGNED IF A TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE CAN BE CAUSED BY A PIECE OF RUBBER DEBRIS. I ALSO WANTED TO KNOW, HOW A TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE CAN HAPPEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING. MY OTHER QUESTION WAS WHAT AMERICA HONDA MOTOR CO. WILL DO TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN ON MINE AND OTHER 2011 CIVIC MODELS. HONDA REPRESENTATIVE REFUSED TO ANSWER ANY OF MY QUESTIONS.SHE STATED THAT SINCE THERE WAS NOT ANY ACCIDENT, EVERYTHING IS FINE WITH THEM. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD HAVE ENDED TRAGICALLY AND WOULD APPRECIATE YOU TO INVESTIGATE AND FOLLOW UP ON IT. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR IN TO THE DEALER, UNDER MY ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD, BECAUSE THE A/C WAS BLOWING HOT AIR. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT "ROAD DEBRIS" PUNCTURED A HOLE IN THE CONDENSER COIL, WHICH IS THE VERY FIRST THING BEHIND THE FRONT BUMPER. NOTHING IS VISIBLE THAT WOULD PROTECT THE DELICATE COIL FROM NORMAL DRIVING. INSURANCE WILL NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I CALLED SEVERAL LOCAL DEALERS, ALL OF WHICH ADMITTED THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE. I CALLED HONDA, AND WAS ADVISED THEIR POSITION IS NOT TO OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AS THEY DO NOT FEEL THIS IS AN EQUIPMENT OR DESIGN FLAW. SINCE THERE IS NO RETROFIT AVAILABLE, NOTHING PROVIDES PROTECTION FROM THE DAMAGE HAPPENING AGAIN, AFTER A COSTLY REPAIR BILL. I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ONLINE, AND FOUND A SETTLED CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT BETWEEN HONDA AND HONDA OWNERS FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. "SPECIFICALLY, THE COMPLAINT ALLEGED THAT THE CONDENSER WAS PLACED IN A POSITION THAT WAS VULNERABLE TO CONTACT FROM ROCKS, PEBBLES AND OTHER ROAD DEBRIS DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ON PAVED ROADWAYS, AND THAT HONDA FAILED TO DESIGN THE VEHICLE EITHER TO WITHSTAND THIS IMPACT OR WITH A GUARD OR GRILL THAT WOULD PROTECT THE CONDENSER DESPITE THE 'CLEAR VULNERABILITY' OF THE CONDENSER TO THIS DEBRIS CONTACT." - ALIN V. HONDA MOTOR CO. LTD. ET AL., CASE NUMBER [XXX]. THE LAWSUIT SETTLED IN SEPTEMBER 2011. THIS LAWSUIT DID NOT INCLUDE CIVICS, BUT LOCAL DEALERS AND VEHICLE BLOGS SHOW THAT THIS IS, AND HAS BEEN, A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM FROM BACK BEFORE THIS LAWSUIT . HONDA CLAIMED I WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO CALL THEM WITH THIS ISSUE. I AM TRYING TO WORK THIS OUT WITHOUT PARTICIPATING IN A CURRENT CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT INVESTIGATION FOR THIS ISSUE, FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL. IT IS VERY DISTRESSING THAT HONDA WAS WELL AWARE OF THE DESIGN FLAW AND FAULTY/FLIMSY MATERIAL CAUSING THIS ISSUE, AND DID EXACTLY NOTHING TO PREVENT FUTURE ISSUES.

FRONT BRAKE PADS COMPLETELY BARE. I AM AN OLDER WOMAN DRIVER WHO DOES NOT ENDURE MUCH STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. NEVER OWNED A CAR WHERE BRAKE PADS FAILED/WORN IN JUST 1 1/2 YEARS OF DRIVING. ALL OTHER CARS OWNED BY FAMILY HAVE BRAKE PADS LAST 80K MILES. REPLACING PADS TODAY, BUT WAS TOLD BY HONDA REP THAT IT IS MY FAULT DUE TO MY DRIVING HABITS. HAD I KNOWN WHAT I NOW KNOW. OR SEEN THE ONLINE CUSTOMER/OWNER'S COMMENTS REGARDING THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND BRAKE ISSUES THAT DATE BACK ALMOST A DECADE, I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR. *TR

Summary

THIS 2011 CIVIC EX I OWN HAS ALREADY GONE THROUGH 3 DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISORS. THE VISOR SPLITS, AND CAUSES A DISTRCTION TO THE DRIVER BY FLOPPING DOWN, AND POTENTIALLY CAUSING A DISTRACTION TO LED TO AN ACCIDENT. IN RESEARCHING THIS, HONDA WAS SUED FOR 2006 - 2009 MODELS FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM - AND LOST (YET NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY). I SPOKE TO AMERICAN HONDA, THEY SAID THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE 2011 MODEL BEING A PROBLEM. THAT IS NOT TRUE. I SPOKE TO THE DEALER, SAN TAN HONDA. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS HOT SO THEY SPLIT. MAYBE THEY SHOULD ONLY SELL THESE CARS IN ALASKA, AND NOT ARIZONA. THERE ARE NO GREY DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISORS FOR THE 2011 HONDA CIVIC AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES. THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER, AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY ARE COMING IN. THAT SHOULD BE AN INDICATIOR OF A QUALITY PROBLEM. HONDA IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, AND HAS NOT ISSUED ANY NOTICE AND HAS DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS, NOR DONE THE REDESIGN FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART. PLEASE HELP TO HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE TO STOCK PARTS, AND EXTEND THE WARRANTY OF THIS DEFECTIVE PART. THEY CANNOT SEEM TO LEARN THE LESSON OF THEIR LAWSUIT ON PREVIOUS MODELS. THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO REDESIGN THE PART, AND BE FINED FOR FAILING TO ADDRESS THE KNOWN SITUATION.

Summary

DRIVING THE CAR FOR ONE YEAR NOW I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES MAKE A POP NOISE AFTER GOING IN REVERSE THEN FORWARD, ALSO A FEWS TIMES THE CAR BRAKES FEEL LIKE ITS NOT REALLY SLOWING THE CAR DOWN FROM FREEWAY SPEEDS AND ALMOST CASUED A FEW ACCIDENTS BY NOT PROVIDING ENOUGH BRAKING POWER. THE SUSPENSION IS INADEQUET FOR THE CAR IT BOTTOMS THE REAR OF THE CAR WITH <100 LBS INSIDE. THE CAR TENDS TO JUMP FORWARD WHEN DECELERATING BY COASTING AND APPLYING THE BRAKES RIGHT BEFORE THE AUTO LEVEL IS REACHED HAS ALMOST CAUSED A FEW ACCIDENTS FROM THE CAR JUMPING FORWARD ABOUT 1-2 FEET ALSO FEELS LIKE A WHIPLASH EFFECT WHEN IT DOES THIS. ALSO WHEN GOING FROM 0 TO 10 AT AN INTERSECTION TO MOVE QUICKLY OUT OF THE INTERSECTION THE CAR DOES NOT HAVE POWER AND MOVES AT A SLOW PACE COMPARED TO THE RPMS. DEALER SAYS THE POP NOISE IS A GAP IN THE BRAKE PADS AND THE JUMP EFFECT IS POSSIBLY DUE TO THE AC DISENGAGING BUT THE AC WAS NOT DISENGAGING AT THE TIME. *TT

IT WAS DECIDED BY THE SERVICE DEPT TO REPLACE BATTERY. BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND IS KEEPING A SOMEWHAT BETTER CHARGE BUT HAVE NOTICED A SIGNIFICANT DECREASE IN POWER AND THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION ONLY WORKING OCCASIONALLY, ALSO NOTICED A DECREASE OF MILEAGE DOWN TO 23-25 MPG IN CITY. TOOK THE CAR BACK TO SERVICE AND AFTER THEY RAN DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND REVIEWING WITH HONDA "TECH" PEOPLE WAS TOLD THAT PERFORMANCE WAS HOW THEY INTENDED TO DECREASE WEAR ON BATTERIES LIFE. A CAR WITH NO POWER TO GO UP SMALL HILLS AND A 25MPG AVERAGE IS NOT WHAT I SPENT 27000$ ON AND THAT IT IS CERTAINLY NOT WHAT HONDA ADVERTISED THE CAR TO BE. *TR

2011 HONDA CIVIC WITH 4000 MILES. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND COMPLAINED ABOUT A BURNED SMELL WHEN BRAKING WHILE DRIVING UPHILL AFTER THE CAR STOPS. NO HEAVY BRAKING THOUGH. DEALERSHIP INSPECTED THE BRAKES AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AT 7300 MILES AND A TOTAL OF 7 MONTHS OF USE THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE A GRINDING NOISE WHEN BRAKING OR NOT. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID MY BRAKE PADS HAD ZERO % LEFT, METAL TO METAL. THEY BLAMED THE WAY THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN AND TREATED ME LIKE I WAS SOME JERK THAT WAS DRAG RACING EVERY DAY AND TOASTED THE BRAKES. I PREVIOUSLY HAD A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT I DROVE THE SAME WAY (AS A NORMAL PERSON BY THE WAY, CITY AND FREEWAY) AND DID NOT HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKES UNTIL OVER 33000 MILES! THIS IS RIDICULOUS, EVEN A VERY BAD DRIVER THAT KEEPS HITTING HIS BRAKES SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH 7300 MILES IN A COMPACT CAR. HONDA DECLINED ANY SERVICING AND DECLINED TO FIX OR EVEN LOOK DEEPER FOR A POSSIBLE PROBLEM. WANTED TO CHARGE ME OVER $100 FOR A 5 MINUTE BRAKE PAD INSPECTION... A JOKE! *TT

Summary

HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES. TO PREVENT FUEL FROM LEAKING OUT OF A VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK INTO THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CANISTER IN THE EVENT A ROLL-OVER INCIDENT OCCURS, THE FUEL PUMP MODULE IS EQUIPPED WITH A ROLL OVER VALVE (ROV). DUE TO IMPROPER ULTRASONIC WELDING OF THE PLASTIC CASE THAT HOUSES THE ROV WITHIN THE FUEL PUMP MODULE, THE CASE MATERIAL MAY BREAK OR CRACK, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE ROV TO SEPARATE FROM THE CASE AND FAIL TO FUNCTION, THEREBY INCREASING THE RISK OF FUEL LEAKAGE IN A ROLL-OVER INCIDENT.
