Summary

Transmission filler cap (wine cork style) popped off as in other complaints causing a loss of fluid and the transmission failing. Car seems to be stuck in 2nd or 3rd gear and is no longer drivable. This poor design that has been complained about is causing an unnecessary financial hardship replacing the transmissions.

Summary

I had rear brake driver side light change on Tuesday November 16, 2021 at the Hondas dealer Downtown Los Angeles. On Wednesday November 17, 2021 the 3rd rear brake light started a fire in my truck. The light bult overheated melted the cover, burned the fuse and my dress and suit in the trunk started to burn. It smelled horrible. I immediately called the dealer and Honda. The dealer made a diagnosis that the fuse burned but they cannot explain why or if it will happen again if it gets replaced. I am paying $496.62 to the dealer for repair but they cannot determine what cause it? I am very upset because my son is 2 years old and he seats in the rear. I am a single mother and I was dropping him to school when this happened. I don't imagine being exposes to fire or any safety hazard. The driver rear breake light was previously replaced on February of 2021. I found it strange and asked the dealer why is it being replaced too many time and just one side but they cannot explain why. I want an investigation or some kind of explanation why my vehicle catch fire. I dont know if Honda is manufacturing vehicles with faulty electric wire in the trunk causing fires and damages. I want to prevent future deaths. It was a very scary, stressful situation, traumatic experience. My dress has a hole and my suit inside the truck were damage expenses adding to $1,512.00.Please help me investigate this matter. Thank you.

Summary

Started my car in neutral with the parking brake engaged. The car took off by itself up a curb over a hill and struck another vehicle. I managed to get back in the vehicle and applied the brakes but the brakes did not respond. And my car was serviced at Freeway Honda in Santa Ana three days prior to the accident. I reported the problem with the brakes, they did a brake service, but they did not properly diagnose the issue and fix it. They told me they couldn’t find any problems and release the car back to me. Three days later it was in an accident and the brakes failed. Now freeway Honda has stated that they finally diagnosed the issue with the brakes, but they are refusing to fix it free of charge even though they have been deemed liable for the accident. My rear shocks were also damaged due to the impact of going up the curb and State Farm is investigating that to see if they will be paying for the repair and replacement of the shocks.

While driving the car we had heard an explosion and glass shattering. We looked around and couldn’t see any damage. I had pulled back my sunroof and saw it was completely shattered outwards, not inwards. My sunroof was made out of tempered glass, which these types of sunroofs have a tendency of randomly combusting.

Summary

The plug for the automatic transmission fluid pops off and allows for all contaminates and water to enter transmission unknowingly. This was noticed at 94k miles on ours and on forums is a highly reoccurring item that needs to be addressed by Honda before transmissions begin failing from a "popping" plug that falls out while driving unbeknownst to the driver.

Summary

The taffeta white paint started peeling off the car within just three months after originally purchasing in 2014. The paint continues to peel off in various places and is causing the body to corrode and rust. Honda refuses to do anything about this. There is no reason for it to be peeling off at the rate it is. This has been happening since just after purchasing the car and will cost thousands to fix the rust and repaint. This is a major issue that Honda has not acknowledged and it’s happening to many people.

Summary

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE CITY STREETS WHEN THE CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED TO MAKE THE CAR ACT ERRATIC STOP AND GO STOP AND GO. I HAD TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL SO THAT I COULD CONTROL IT AND MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS SO GLAD I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I PURCHASE THE CAR USED IN APRIL OF 2015. I ALWAYS HAD THE CAR SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP WHEN SERVICE WAS DUE. AND TWO YEARS AGO I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN AFTER GETTING OFF THE FREEWAY. AT THAT TIME THE CAR HAD WENT OVER 100K MILES SO I HAD TO PAY $2000 TO REPLACE IT. AND IT LOOKS LIKE I'M GOING TO BE PAYING $2000 AGAIN. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE CTV TRANSMISSION, UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO WHEN I WAS LOOKING TO SEE IF ANY ONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM. BECAUSE I PURCHASE THE CAR USED I WANTED TO SEE IF THE RECALL WAS TAKEN CARE OF, IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT A SOFTWARE UPDATE IS THE COMPLETE FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. SO MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. SOME WITH LOW MILEAGE LIKE MY SECOND TRANSMISSION AND MOST OF THEM FAIL AROUND 100K. I KNOW NOTHING LAST FOR EVER, AND I WILL PAY $2000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION IF I CAN BE SURE THAT IT WILL NOT JUST ALL OUT OF THE BLUE LOCKUP OR BRAKE PART OF THE DRIVE TRAIN AND PUT MY LIFE IN DANGER

Summary

I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW IN EARLY 2015. NEVER HAD SO MUCH AS A SLIP IN THE TRANSMISSION. GOT A RECALL NOTICE IN 2015 ABOUT A SENSOR FOR MAKING THE "CHECK TIRE PRESSURE" LIGHT STAY ON WHEN STARTING THE CAR. HONDA TELLS ME THEY FIXED THIS IN DECEMBER 2015. ON AUGUST 27, 2020, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON A VERY DANGEROUS HIGHWAY, THE TRANSMISSION JUST STOPPED. NO NOISE, NO POP, NO STUTTER. THE CAR STARTED DECELERATING AND EVERY ERROR MESSAGE KNOWN TO MAN CAME ON THE SCREEN. CHECK POWER STEERING, CHECK TMP SYSTEM, CHECK ENGINE, CHECK TRANSMISSION, ETC. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, BARELY GETTING ACROSS THE LINE AND HAVING TO SIT AND PRAY FOR HALF AN HOUR THAT THE HUGE CARS BARRELING TOWARD ME WOULD NOT HIT ME. GOT IT TOWED TO KING HONDA. A TECHNICIAN CALLED FIVE DAYS LATER AND SAID THE TRANSMISSION IS SHOT. I CAN EITHER PAY $6000 FOR A TRANSMISSION FROM HONDA, OR I CAN PAY $2000 FOR A USED TRANSMISSION. HE SAID THE DRIVE SHAFT PULLEY BROKE. I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE RECALL NUMBER 15V574000 THAT SAYS THE SOFTWARE SETTINGS THAT CONTROL THE TRANSMISSION OPERATION MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION DRIVE PULLEY SHAFT. HE SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY CAR. HE SAID HE'D TALK TO HIS MANAGER AND CALL ME BACK. HE LEFT A MESSAGE SAYING THE TRANSMISSION HAS COME APART ON THE INSIDE AND I WOULD NEED A NEW ONE. IN THE MEANTIME, I'D CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THE MAN TOLD ME IT WAS JUST SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED. I ASKED ABOUT THE RECALL. HE SAID IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. MY HUSBAND CALLED AND THE MAN LISTENED TO HIM AND AGREED THAT THESE THINGS DON'T "JUST HAPPEN" TO A HONDA THAT IS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES WITH NO NOTICE, NO PROBLEMS, NO NOISE. HE AGREED TO HAVE A LOOK AT THE CAR AND SAID IF THE DRIVE SHAFT PULLEY IS IN FACT BROKEN, IT WOULD BE RELATED TO THE RECALL. WE TOWED IT TONIGHT AND WILL WAIT TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY.

FOR THE THIRD TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR, I REALIZED THAT THE FILL PLUG OR DIPSTICK OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION KEEPS POPPING OUT OF THE FLUID HOLE SPILLING OIL ALL OVER THE TRANSMISSION METAL CASE. THE ISSUES SEEMS TO BE COMMON AMONG OTHER HONDA CIVIC 2014 OWNERS. I NOTICE THAT THE ISSUES IS MORE COMMONLY AFTER TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY TO LONG DISTANCES. THE ISSUE ALSO CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO RUN DRY AFTER SPILLING ALL THE FLUID FROM THE TRANSMISSION. I BELIEVE IS NOT A NORMAL ISSUE, AND HONDA SHOULD RECALL VEHICLES TO FIX THE ISSUE.

IT WENT OFF FOR A LITTLE BIT AND NOW IT GOES ON AND OFF WITH OR WITHOUT PEOPLE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIT. I HAPPEN ONLY ONCE I START DRIVING AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M SITTING AT A LIGHT TO MOVING. I'VE NOTICED THAT OTHER HONDA'S HAVE HAD SIMILIAR PROBLEMS WHEN SEARCHING THE NET. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL IMPACT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT EITHER. I BELIEVE IT'S A SEAT SENSOR GONE BAD BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. I'VE ALREADY BEEN TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW.

Summary

TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FAILED AT A STOP SIGN A MONTH OUT OF WARRANTY AT 49K MILES. WAS DRIVING FROM MY PARENT'S DRIVEWAY TO SAID STOP SIGN, AROUND 100FT. STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN, TRIED TO MOVE AND GOT NO TRACTION. NEXT DAY HAD IT TOWED, INDEPENDENT TECHNICIAN SAID THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHOT. BROUGHT IT TO KRENZEN HONDA IN DULUTH, MN, THEY SAID TRANSMISSION WAS SHOT. THERE WAS NO SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE FOR THE POWER TRAIN BEFOREHAND. HONDA OF AMERICA IS CLAIMING I DIDN'T PERFORM REQUIRED MAINTENANCE BUT DID NOT PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION AS TO WHAT THAT MAINTENANCE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE. HONDA OF AMERICA IS REFUSING TO FIX IT, EVEN THOUGH THERE'S AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS MODEL AND FOR THIS FAILURE MODE (CVT BEING DESTROYED) BUT ODDLY ENOUGH NOT MY CAR. THIS SHOWS THAT THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL LIABLE TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN. SERVICE TECH AT KRENZEN SAID THAT THIS HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY.

Summary

I WAS RUNNING ERRANDS AND PARKED CAR IN A LOT. UPON RETURN TO THE CAR, IT STARTED UP BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO DRIVE WHEN I PLACED GEAR IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THE CAR REFUSED TO MOVE DESPITE TURNING OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTING IT BACK UP. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED AWAY. FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS CAR WHICH IF NOT CORRECTED CAN RESULT IN TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. WE HAD NEVER GOTTEN NOTICE OF THIS RECALL. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS AND HAD NOT MOVED ADDRESSES. CAR HAD LESS THAN 58K MILES UNDER THE 60K MILES POWERTRAIN WARRANTY BUT WAS ONLY 4 MONTHS OVER THE 5 YRS PERIOD. AMERICAN HONDA WAS ONLY WILLING TO PAY 50/50 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. I WAS LUCKY THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT GO OUT WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT A HIGHER SPEED AS THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED SOME MAJOR ACCIDENT LOSING POWER WITH NO ADVANCED NOTICE AND HAVING NO CONTROL OF THE CAR. WE FEEL IF THIS RECALL WAS SENT OUT AND IT WAS CORRECTED, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT HAVE GONE OUT TO BEGIN WITH. IT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING AND SCARY TO KNOW THERE ARE OTHER CARS LIKE MINE OUT THERE WHICH AMERICAN HONDA IS NOT TAKING FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR PRODUCT AND PUTTING HARM IN THEIR CUSTOMER'S SAFETY.

Summary

MY CAR HAS 41K MILES ON IT. WHILE I WAS DRIVING, THE A/C SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING AND HOT AIR WAS BLOWING. I ALSO HEARD A RUMBLING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC A DAY LATER, AND AFTER A FULL DAY OF DIAGNOSTICS, THEY DETERMINED THE ENTIRE AC COMPRESSOR UNIT NEEDS REPLACING. THEY COULD NOT FIND THIS PART FROM ANY DEALER, AND NONE OF THEM HAD A RELEASE DATE FOR THE PART COMING IN. THERE WERE ALSO NO AFTER MARKET MODELS OF THIS PART MADE. THEY CONTACTED HONDA DIRECTLY WHO SAID THEY ARE RELEASING SOME 9/29/19 AND YOU CAN PUT A DEPOSIT DOWN, BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE TO RECEIVE ONE BECAUSE OF HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED THIS PART. SEVERAL PEOPLE TOLD ME THAT IF NONE ARE IN STOCK, AND SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE, IT LIKELY MEANS THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE PART, AND HONDA MAY BE HOLDING OFF ON RELEASING MORE. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR CURRENTLY BECAUSE IF THE AC COMPRESSOR UNIT LOCKS UP IT COULD AFFECT THE ENTIRE BELT WHICH CONNECTS ALL PARTS OF MY CAR, CAUSING IT TO BE COMPLETELY UNABLE TO DRIVE. I ALSO LIVE IN TEXAS, AND IT IS IN THE 100S, AND I DON'T HAVE AC WHICH IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERN AS WELL.

Summary

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT A SAFETY ISSUE WITH A VEHICLE. I AM NOT THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE THAT I AM REPORTING, BUT I WAS NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY A FIRE THAT THE VEHICLE CAUSED. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A PUBLIC PARKING GARAGE ON THE 1ST FLOOR. SEVERAL HOURS AFTER PARKING MY CAR, A BMW X5 PARKED NEXT TO MY VEHICLE. THE OWNER OF THE BMW LEFT THEIR VEHICLE AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. HOWEVER, WHILE THE OWNER WAS AWAY FROM THE CAR, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE. THE FIRE SPREAD TO 4 OTHER VEHICLES INCLUDING MY VEHICLE ' THE TWO VEHICLES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR AND TWO VEHICLES ON THE 2ND FLOOR OF THE PARKING GARAGE. MY VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AS A RESULT OF THIS FIRE. THE FIRE ENGULFED THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND COMPLETELY DAMAGED THE INTERIOR. WITH ALL THE DAMAGES THAT MY CAR SUSTAINED, IT IS NOT DRIVEABLE NOR IS IT REPAIRABLE. MY INSURANCE HAS A BETTER RECORD OF THE COMPLETE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. UPON, EXPLORING THIS ISSUE, I FOUND THAT THIS SPECIFIC BMW WAS LISTED AS AN AFFECTED VEHICLE FOR RECALL. NHTSA ISSUED SEVERAL RECALLS FOR PARTS OF THE VEHICLE THAT COULD CATCH FIRE EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN OPERATION. FOR EXAMPLE: REPORT RECEIPT DATE: 10-30-2017 NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 17V683000 MANUFACTURER: BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC CONSEQUENCE: AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAN CAUSE THE PARTS WITHIN THE PCV VALVE TO MELT, INCREASING THE RISK OF A FIRE, EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN USE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND BMW SHOULD BE MORE ATTENTIVE AND RESPONSIBLE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AS A RESULT OF THIS, I HAVE LOST MY CAR AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOUP THE RETAIL VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS INCREDIBLY UNFAIR AND BMW SHOULD BE DOING MORE TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE AND HELP THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN NEGATIVELY AFFECTED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

THERE ARE TWO SAFETY CONCERNS. 1 - THE POWER OUTLET BURNING OUT BEFORE THE FUSE TRIPS COULD LEAD THE AN OVER-HEATING AND WEAKENING OF WIRES RESULTING IN A POTENTIAL FIRE AND 2 - THE DEFECTIVE POWER OUTLET CAN LEAVE A MOTORIST STRANDED IF THE TIRE CAN NOT BE RE-INFLATED OR KEPT AT PROPER INFLATION LEVELS.

DEAR HONDA AMERICAN, I HAVE WRITTEN TO YOU A NUMBER OF TIMES REGARDING THE SAFETY NOTICES. EITHER YOU ARE UNABLE, OR UNWILLING, TO READ MY NOTES REGARDING THE HONDA CIVIC EX ([XXX]), DESTROYED IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN SEPTEMBER 2014. THE AIR BAG - PASSENGER SIDE - EXPLODED IN A COLLISION AND TOOK OUT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. MY AIR BAG - DRIVE SIDE - NEVER DEPLOYED!! I WAS INJURED AND REQUIRED EXTENSIVE PHYSICAL THERAPY. I AM STILL IN PAIN FROM THE ACCIDENT. EVERY DAY. MY DOG, DAYZ, INSIDE A SAFETY-BELTED-INTO-PLACE DOG CARRIER, WAS INJURED. WITHIN TWO WEEKS OF THE ACCIDENT, SHE BEGAN HAVING SEIZURES. AS A RESULT OF THE ACCIDENT. WE HAD TO PUT HER TO SLEEP AT THE END OF OCTOBER 2014. I REPEATEDLY TRIED TO HAVE THE AIR BAGS REPLACED BEFORE THE ACCIDENT. THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIPS WERE UNHELPFUL AND UNCOOPERATIVE. THEY ARE BY THE FAR AND AWAY THE ABSOLUTE WORST WHEN IT COMES TO CUSTOMER SERVICE. THE WORD "PROACTIVE" HAS NEVER ENTERED INTO THEIR VOCABULARY. IN FACT, I WOULD NOT PURCHASE A SECOND HONDA BECAUSE THEY WERE SUCH MORONIC IDIOTS. YOUR CARS MAY BE THE CREAM OF THE CROP IN JAPAN, BUT HERE IN THE USA, WE EXPECT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE TO ACCOMPANY THE PURCHASE OF A CAR. WHICH IS SEVERELY LACKING IN ANY OF YOUR LOCAL DEALERSHIPS. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THE PURCHASE OF A HONDA TO ANYONE BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME ANY MORE LITERATURE. ABOUT TRADING IN MY CAR. ABOUT A SAFETY RECALL. NOTHING. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE A LEASED 2014 HONDA CIVIC EX, MY LEASE BEGAN 11/2014. IN 9/2016 I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45MPH ON A SIDE ROAD WITH SPEED LIMIT 45MPH WHEN MY CAR LOST POWER TO THE GAS PEDAL, I COULD FLOOR IT WITHOUT ANY RESPONSE, AND NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON (POWER STEERING, VSA, HILL START ASSIST, TPMS, EMISSION, TRANSMISSION, ETC). I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO SAFETY AND WAIT FOR A TOW. UPON ARRIVAL AT HONDA, THE CAR WAS 'BACK TO NORMAL' AND THE TECHS COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM SO THEY CALLED IT A FLUKE AND RETURNED IT TO ME. 2 WEEKS LATER I WAS JUST LEAVING MY HOUSE, ABOUT 5 MPH OUT OF MY SPOT AND UP TO A STOP SIGN, AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SAME HONDA AND WAITED. I WAS TOLD A WEEK LATER THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO KEEP LOOKING. NOT HAPPENING AS IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. I IMMEDIATELY OPENED A CLAIM WITH HONDA. THEY LOOKED FOR A WEEK MORE WITH NO LUCK AND WERE ABOUT TO RETURN MY DANGEROUS AND UNDIAGNOSED CAR TO ME WHEN IT HAPPENED FOR THEM; I AM UNAWARE OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES. THEY KEPT IT ANOTHER TWO WEEKS WHEN THEY GUESSED IT WAS A FAULTY COMPUTER AND PUT A NEW ONE IN IT. FAST FORWARD TO 2/2017 AND IT HAS HAPPENED YET AGAIN. I WAS GOING ABOUT 7 MPH IN A PARKING LOT, PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN, AND ABOUT TO TURN ONTO A 50 MPH, 5 LANE ROAD WHERE I FOR SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT HAD IT OCCURRED THERE. IT HAS BEEN TOWED TO HONDA AND I HAVE ZERO INTENTIONS TO TAKE THIS DEATH TRAP BACK, AND I HAVE EVEN LESS FAITH THAT AN ACTUAL PROBLEM WILL BE FOUND YET AGAIN. THE ATTACHED PHOTO SHOWS THE LIGHTS ON THIS MOST RECENT TIME, TAKEN WHILE IN PARK. YOU CAN SEE THE LIGHTS ON, D LIT UP WHILE IN PARK, AND THE NEEDLE AT 1 EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT MOVING.

BEGINNING THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR, THE CHECK TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT HAS COME ON AT LEAST 2-3 TIMES A MONTH. I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR INTO A HONDA DEALER FOR SERVICE EACH TIME TO CHECK TIRE PRESSURE, WHICH HAS 98% OF THE TIME BEEN FINE. THEY HAVE DONE 2 COMPUTER SOFTWARE UPGRADES, THE FIRST OF WHICH SEEMED TO HELP FOR A FEW MONTHS, BUT THEN IT CAME BACK ON; THE 2ND TIME IT WAS UPGRADED, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON THE NEXT DAY. I RECENTLY LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALER FOR 8 HOURS AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, BUT SAID IT WAS A SMALL DISCREPANCY IN THE TREAD OF THE TIRES - ONE TIRE HAD 4/32 OF A TREAD AND THE OTHERS HAD 5/32. HOWEVER, SINCE THE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR AND THE TIRES WERE THEN NEW, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE PROBLEM. IN OTHER WORDS, THEY HAVE NO EXPLANATION AND NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM.

THE TIRES ARE CONSTANTLY LOSING AIR PRESSURE. THE TMPS SENSOR GOES OFF ABOUT ONCE OR TWICE A MONTH AND ONE OF THE TIRES WILL BE ABOUT 5+ PSI LOW AND ONE OR MORE OF THE OTHERS WILL BE 1-2 PSI LOW. IT IS NEVER THE SAME TIRE AND EVERY TIME IT GOES OFF I CHECK ALL OF THEM AND RE-INFLATE ALL TO THE CORRECT PSI. THERE WAS A RECALL ON SOME 2014 HONDA CIVICS FOR THIS ISSUE (CAUSED BY AN ISSUE WITH THE TIRE ATTACHING TO THE WHEEL), BUT NOT ALL OF THEM. I THINK THAT ALL 2014 HONDA CIVICS NEED TO BE RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE AND FIXED. AS MENTIONED IN THAT RECALL ANNOUNCEMENT, THE DECREASED TIRE PRESSURE CAN CAUSE INCREASED INCIDENTS OF ACCIDENTS AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR 1 MONTH THE TIRE LIGHT CAME ON SAYING FROM THE COMPUTER ON THE DASH "CHECK TIRE PRESSURE." I WENT TO WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR TWICE AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TIRES AND THEY SHUT THE COMPUTER SYMBOL OFF. THEN 3 MONTHS GOES BY AND IT COMES ON AGAIN, I BROUGHT IT IN AND THEY CLAIMED "THERE WAS A SMALL LEAK IN THE TIRE." MAJESTIC HONDA FIXED IT?? AND MADE ME PAY $100.00 FOR THIS. NOW IT IS JUNE 29TH, 2015 AND MY LIGHT WENT ON AGAIN AND IN ANOTHER TIRE IT WAS LOW. THE TIRE WAS ACTUALLY LOW AND I HAD TO PUT AIR IN IT. I WILL BE TAKING THE CAR BACK TO MAJESTIC BUT I THINK THAT #1 THE FIRST FEW MONTHS SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE COMPUTER, I DO NOT THINK THERE WAS ANY LEAK IN THE TIRE, I LOOKED AT THE TIRE AND I DID NOT FIND WHERE THEY "FIXED THE SMALL LEAK." NOW IN ANOTHER TIRE IT IS GOING FLAT. I HAVE READ THAT YOU HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRES AND I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS. YOU HAD A RECALL ON CERTAIN MODELS BUT NOT MINE, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TIRES AND YOUR ELECTRICAL WITH THE TIRES. PLEASE CALL ME BACK AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. I DO NOT THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THESE TIRES WHEN THEIR WAS A RECALL AND MAYBE YOU MISSED MINE. ALSO MY FRIEND BOUGHT THE EXACT CAR I DID AND HER LIGHT "CHECK TIRES" GOES ON CONSISTENTLY.

Summary

FROM A DEAD STOP, WHEN THE HONDA STARTS TO ACCELERATE, THERE IS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER FOR @ 1.5 SECONDS. THESE EPISODES USUALLY HAPPEN WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT ALTHOUGH IT HAPPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME ACCELERATING FORWARD TODAY. THESE EPISODES HAPPEN 3 TO 5 TIMES A WEEK. I DRIVE @ 130 MILES A WEEK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHERE RELIABLE ACCELERATION IS IMPORTANT. I HAVE HAD THE CAR EVALUATED 3-4 TIMES BY THE DEALERSHIP WHICH CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP HAS ONLY DRIVEN THE CAR @10 MILES FOR THEIR TESTS WHICH IS HALF OF WHAT I DO ON A DAILY BASIS.

I HAVE CURRENTLY LODGED MORE THAN SIX COMPLAINTS WITH THIS AGENCY IN REGARD TO A 2014 HONDA CIVIC I PURCHASED NEW FROM FRANK FLETCHER HONDA IN BENTONVILLE, AR. THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUES ON A DAILY BASIS. THIS INCLUDES STALLING, TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, JERKING AND AN OVERALL ROUGH RIDE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS SERVED ON FEBRUARY 3, 2015 WITH A CERTIFIED LETTER MAKING A WRITTEN DEMAND UNDER THE ARKANSAS NEW MOTOR VEHICLE QUALITY ASSURANCE ACT (ACT 297 OF 1993) TO PROVIDE COMPENSATION UNDER SAID LAW. HONDA AMERICA WAS ALSO SERVED WITH THE SAME LETTER. THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA AMERICA HAVE HAD AMPLE TIME TO CORRECT THIS SITUATION BUT HAVE DONE NOTHING TO DATE. BOTH ENTITIES HAVE PLACED ME AND MY FAMILY IN JEOPARDY BY CHOOSING TO ANSWER MY REQUEST FOR A SAFE VEHICLE. MY ATTORNEY, WHO DREW UP THE LETTER, STATED THE CAR FALLS UNDER THE "LEMON LAW" AND I'M CURRENTLY DRIVING "HALF A VEHICLE." *TR

WE DO NOT MISUSE VEHICLES, AND THE CLUTCH GOING OUT SO SOON FOR US IN PARTICULAR IS INDICATIVE OF A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM RATHER THAN OPERATOR ERROR. *TR

AIR PRESSURE ON MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE HAS BEEN LOW SINCE A MONTH INTO THE PURCHASE OF THIS CAR. THE ALERT ONLY WENT OFF ONCE, BUT WHEN I GOT THE TIRES REFILLED, THE TIRE STILL SEEMED FLAT. I JUST LET IT BE BECAUSE NO FURTHER ALERTS CAME ON. BUT I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND SLIPPED ON SNOW THE OTHER DAY AND HIT A CURB, WHICH DEPLOYED MY AIRBAGS. I DO NOT THINK THAT IF THIS TIRE WAS DEFECTIVE I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO THIS ACCIDENT. I WAS GOING AROUND 10MPH, AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT. *TR

MY HUSBAND PICKED ME UP FROM WORK FOR LUNCH. AS WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE RODE, WE FELT A "SLIPPING" MOVEMENT AND THE CAR BEGAN TO STALL OUT. FOLLOWING THIS WAS A SERIES OF SMALL JERKING MOVEMENTS AS WE CONTINUED TO DRIVE. A WEEK AGO MY ATTORNEY FILED LEGAL DOCUMENTS UNDER THE ARKANSAS AUTO LEMON LAW AGAINST HONDA AMERICA.

Summary

MY CAR IS 2014 HONDA CIVIC EX-L NAVI WITH PUSHBUTTON ENGINE START/STOP. I WAS APPROACHING AN INCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY AND HAD SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 30 MPH. I THOUGHT I SHOULD ACTIVATE THE 4-WAY FLASHERS AS A WARNING TO OTHER DRIVERS. WHEN I PUSHED THE BUTTON, I PUSHED THE START/STOP BUTTON BY MISTAKE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. THE START/STOP BUTTON IS JUST BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL, AND THE FLASHER BUTTON IS ABOUT SIX INCHES TO THE LOWER RIGHT OF THE START/STOP BUTTON. OF COURSE WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED I LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKE BOOST. IT WAS REALLY HARD TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AT THAT POINT. THANKFULLY TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT AND I CONTINUED TO COAST SLIGHTLY LEFT. I ORDER TO RESTART THE ENGINE, I HAD TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND PUSH LIGHTLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS A DIFFICULT SEQUENCE TO PERFORM WHEN ONE'S VEHICLE IS DEAD AND COASTING WITH MINIMAL CONTROL. BY THE TIME I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND REGAINED CONTROL I WAS APPROACHING THE JERSEY BARRIERS IN THE CENTER OF THE HIGHWAY AND WAS BEING PASSED BY THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME. THE START/STOP BUTTON IS REAL EASY TO OPERATE. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE FULLY DEPRESSED, JUST A SLIGHT TOUCH WILL ACTIVATE IT. MORE FORCE IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE THE FLASHER BUTTON THAN THE START/STOP BUTTON. PLUS, THE START/STOP BUTTON PROTRUDES FROM THE SURFACE OF THE DASH AND CAN BE EASILY PRESSED BY ACCIDENT. THE START/STOP SHOULD BE RECESSED INSIDE A SHROUD AND ACTIVATION SHOULD REQUIRE A FULL DEPRESSION AND BE HELD FOR AT LEAST TWO SECONDS. AND IDEALLY THE FLASHER BUTTON SHOULD BE RELOCATED TO THE TOP CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD. THE EVENT DATE AND MILEAGE ARE APPROXIMATE. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW HONDA CIVIC 2014 ON 6/27/2014. ONE MONTH AND A HALF LATER DURING MY MORNING COMMUTE, EACH TIME I TRIED TO SPEED UP TO 50 MILES/HOUR, I STARTED FEELING SOME JERKINESS. SINCE IT WAS A NEW CAR, I WAS NOT SURE THAT IT WAS NORMAL OR NOT. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THAT, ONE MORNING WHEN I WAS VERY SLOWLY PULLING THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE, THE CAR STOPPED AND THE ENGINE DIED. I TURNED ON THE ENGINE AND TRIED TO MOVE THE CAR AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES ON THE SAME DAY. NEXT DAY I CALLED THE CAR DEALER AND TOOK MY CAR FOR THE INSPECTION. THEY FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD A DEFECT AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. THEN ON 10/19/2014, WHEN I WAS DRIVING A STREET, I GOT A TIRE PRESSURE WARNING. MY HUSBAND HELPED TO ADD AIR TO THE TIRES, BUT THE WARNING SIGN DID NOT DISAPPEAR. ON 10/27/2014, WHEN MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE AFTERNOON, A SERIES OF WARNINGS APPEARED (VSA, TPMS, EPS, ABS). AFTER HE GOT HOME, HE CALLED THE DEALER TO ASK FOR TOWING SERVICE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AS HE DID NOT FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER NEXT MORNING. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ABS SENSOR AND PERFORMED THE SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE VSA SYSTEM. HOWEVER THE DEALER STATED THAT IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR

I CALLED DUVAL HONDA ON CASSAT AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE DESK THAT THEY WERE NOT ORDERING PARTS UNTIL I BROUGHT THE CAR BY FOR AN INSPECTION FIRST, BUT THEY COULD NOT INSPECT ANY CAR AFTER 3PM. I FIND THIS EXTREMELY UNSATISFACTORY SINCE MOST OF US THAT OWN THESE CARS WORK FOR A LIVING. THE LADY I SPOKE WITH CALLED HER MANAGER AND HE CONFIRMED THAT NO, THEY WERE NOT INSPECTING CARS FOR THIS RECALL AFTER 3PM I CALLED A DIFFERENT DEALER IN TOWN AND THEY ARE ORDERING THE PARTS WITHOUT SEEING MY CAR AND I HAVE SCHEDULED TO DROP IT OFF WITH THEM.

I HAD TURNED INTO A SHOPPING CENTER NEAR MY HOME AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR AND HIT THE CURB. I WAS GOING ONLY ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH AS YOU CAN'T GO TOO FAST INTO A TURN WITH A MANUAL CAR WITHOUT STALLING. I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING AND CHECK THE AREA WHERE THE BLOWOUT OCCURRED AND THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROAD. THE TIRE BLOWOUT ALSO CAUSED OTHER DAMAGE TO MY CAR. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP SINCE IS WAS A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I JUST PURCHASE APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AGO AND THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 3500 MILES. I EXPLAINED TO THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND ASKED IF THEY COULD LOOK INTO THEIR BEING AN ISSUE WITH THE TIRE AND THEY REFUSED TO LOOK INTO THE POSSIBILITY OF A TIRE DEFECT. THEY TRIED TO BLAME ME FOR THE TIRE BLOW OUT CLAIMING THAT I HIT SOMETHING TO CAUSE THE BLOWOUT. NOW, I AM FINDING OUT THAT OTHER CARS MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR WERE RECALLED DUE TO A FAULTY TIRE. I AM FRUSTRATED AND NOT SURE HOW TO GET SOMEONE TO LOOK INTO THE TIRE ISSUE. I NOW HAVE AN UNEXPECTED EXPENSE FOR REPAIRS ON A NEW CAR. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE OF THE REPAIRS OR THE IMPACT TO MY INSURANCE BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS BEING CONSIDERED AN "AT FAULT" ACCIDENT. *TR

Summary

WHILE DRIVING ALONG AT NORMAL SPEEDS, MY VEHICLE ALERTED ME THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE CHECKED. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR ME TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM. THE SRS LIGHT WAS RESET AND I WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP IF THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I DID NOT MAKE IT HOME BEFORE THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I AGAIN CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED THAT I WOULD NEED TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN AND LEAVE IT ALL DAY FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT IS CAUSING THE LIGHT TO COME ON. *TR

Summary

HAD TO APPLY BRAKE WITH LEFT FOOT AND THEN APPLY GAS PEDDLE WITH RIGHT FOOT FOR IMMEDIATE ACCELERATION TO AVOID ACCIDENT. UPON APPLYING BRAKE AND THEN THE GAS CAR BOGGED AS IF TO STALL ALMOST CAUSING ANOTHER ACCIDENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE INITIAL INCIDENT. I TOOK CAR TO FOX HONDA, MICHIGAN (DEALER WHERE CAR WAS LEASED FROM) AND THEY INDICATED THAT I SHOULDN'T BREAK WITH LEFT AND THEN GIVE IT GAS WITH RIGHT. UNFORTUNATELY THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN ONE SCENARIO WHERE THIS WAS NEEDED TO BE DONE AND IN EACH CASE IT BOGGED TO POINT OF STALL BEFORE ACCELERATING. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. *TR

Summary

THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (WHICH ALSO AFFECTS THE TRACTION) DOES NOT WORK. THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO COME ON EACH TIME YOU START THE CAR. IT CAN ONLY BE TURNED OFF MANUALLY. MY CAR SHOWS THE SYSTEM IS OFF AT ALL TIMES. I AM UNABLE TO TURN IT ON MANUALLY. THE OWNER'S MANUAL SAYS THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN WITH THE SYSTEM OFF. HONDA SAYS THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ANY WAY TO FIX IT. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. THE OIL LIFE SCREEN HAS ALSO DISAPPEARED FROM THE INFORMATION SCREEN IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. AGAIN, HONDA HAS NO SOLUTION. THIS IS THE SAME VEHICLE REFERENCED IN COMPLAINT #10598540. *TR

Summary

I, [XXX], ATTEST THAT THE EVENT DESCRIBED BELOW IS THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THE ACCIDENT ON 03/30/2014. SIDE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED. ON SUNDAY MARCH 30, 2014 I HIT VERY BY ANOTHER CAR THAT RAN THE RED LIGHT. THE GALANT WAS GOING AT A SPEED OF 55 MPH WHEN IT HIT ME, THE FORCE WAS GREAT THAT THE CARS THEN SMACKED TOGETHER AND SPRANG OUT AGAIN. I NOTICE THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY; SIDE OR EVEN FRONT. I CALLED MY PARENTS. THE FLORIDA HIGHWAY PATROL ARRIVED. FIVE MINUTES LATER MY PARENTS ARRIVED. THE JSO AND FHP THEN IGNORED ME FOR 20 MINUTES, WHILE THEY TALKED WITH THE OTHER DRIVER. DAMAGE WAS FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WAS BENT SLIGHTLY IN-WARD AT AN ANGLE, AXLE ROD AND STRUT SHOT, WHEEL WELL HAD DE-WELDED FROM THE MAIN BODY. CRUMPLED AROUND THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL, DRIVER SIDE DOORS WHERE NOT DENTED BUT A SLIGHT WARP WAS IN THE DOORS SO THEY DID NOT COMPLETE TOP CLOSURE. REAR DRIVER SIDE LAMP AND BUMPER CRACKED/DETACHED. IN THE INTERIOR, THE CENTER CONSOLE WHERE THE GEAR SHIFT WAS HAD POPPED THE PLASTIC. MY VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PEARL COLLISION CENTER, WHO ESTIMATED THAT THEY COULD FIX THE DAMAGE. WHEN I QUESTIONED THIS, THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT THE CAR WAS NOT TOTALED DUE TO DAMAGE WAS DEEMED 30% OF THE ACTUAL COST OF THE VEHICLE VALUE. I QUESTIONED WHY THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND IF THEY WOULD BE CHECKED. I WAS HIT PRETTY HARD AND WHY HAVE AIR BAGS FOR SAFETY IF THEY DON''T WORK. I ALSO QUESTIONED THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE. STATE FARM WOULD NOT ANSWER MY QUESTIONS OR WOULD AMERICA HONDA ABOUT THOROUGHLY CHECKING THE AIR BAGS.

Summary

I LEASED A NEW HONDA CIVIC AND I CAN NOT DRIVE IT WITHOUT EXCRUCIATING PAIN IN MY NECK. THE HEADRESTS SHOVE MY HEAD FORWARD AND I CAN NOT FIND A COMFORTABLE POSITION. I AM HEARTBROKEN, ANGRY AND IN PAIN. AFTER MY FIRST 30 MINUTE DRIVE IN THIS CAR, I RESEARCHED ONLINE THIS ISSUE AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM DUE TO THE NEW HEAD RESTRAINT REGULATIONS. I CERTAINLY WOULD NOT HAVE SIGNED A 3 YEAR LEASE AGREEMENT IF I HAD KNOWN THAT I WAS AGREEING TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR THREE YEARS OF PAIN. I'VE TRIED ADJUSTING THE SEAT HEIGHT, ADJUSTING THE TILT OF THE SEAT AND THE HEADREST HEIGHT IN EVERY COMBINATION I CAN THINK OF AND ALL I CAN ACHIEVE IS A BARELY TOLERABLE DRIVING POSITION WHERE I CAN BARELY SEE OVER THE DASHBOARD AND THE HEADREST IS RAISED HIGH ENOUGH THAT IT DOESN'T TOUCH MY HEAD - NOR PROTECT IT AS DESIGNED. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS MAINLY AN ISSUE WITH PASSIVE HEADRESTS AND THAT THE ACTIVE HEADRESTS ARE A BETTER DESIGN THAT STAY OUT OF THE DRIVER'S SPACE. MY ONLY OPTION WILL BE TO REVERSE THE HEADREST FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS AND HOPE MY CAR ISN'T REAR ENDED. ALTHOUGH HAVING MY NEW CAR TOTALED WOULD BE A BLESSING BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO FIND A VEHICLE TO DRIVE THAT DOESN'T HURT ME PHYSICALLY. I SEE THAT THESE FORWARD TILTING HEADREST COMPLAINTS ONLINE GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO 2008 WHEN THE NEW REGULATIONS CAME OUT THAT FORCED CAR MANUFACTURERS TO PRODUCE VEHICLES THAT TORTURE A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF AMERICANS EVERY YEAR. I WOULD HAVE GLADLY PAID $200 OR $300 MORE FOR AN ACTIVE RESTRAINT SYSTEM THAT STAYED OUT OF MY WAY. THE NHTSA SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR THEIR DISGUSTING CALLOUS DISREGARD FOR THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO SUFFER EVERY DAY DUE TO THESE GOVERNMENT-REQUIRED HEADRESTS FORCING THEIR NECKS AND SPINES INTO UNNATURAL AND PAINFUL POSITIONS. *JS

WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE A DESIGN FLAW. THE RUBBER BLADE FLOATS BACK INTO A HOUSING, IN FREEZING CONDITIONS, ICE BUILDS UP IN THE HOUSING, THE RUBBER PART GETS STUCK IN THE HOUSING AND LOSES CONTACT WITH THE WINDSHIELD. CAN HAPPEN SUDDENLY, WITHOUT WARNING. THIS SEVERELY IMPAIRS VISIBILITY AND CREATES A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION. LIVED IN MICHIGAN MY WHOLE LIFE, THIS IS ABOVE AND BEYOND ANY NORMAL WIPER PROBLEMS IN THE WINTER. WENT TO HONDA SERVICE CENTER, THEY DECLINED TO HELP. *TR

Summary

INFLATE TIRE LIGHT WENT ON IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS OF DRIVING. LEARNED FROM PARTS MANAGER THAT THIS IS COMMON AND A SOFTWARE ISSUE. NO FIX RIGHT NOW. HANDS FREE CALLING WORKS ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. NOT SAFE TO USE WHILE DRIVING AND FRUSTRATING THE OTHER HALF OF THE TIME. HONDA CORP. SAYS THIS IS COMMON AND WE NEED TO GET USED TO IT ONLY WORKING SOMETIMES. MILEAGE ON STICKER SAID 30MPG CITY / 39MPG HIGHWAY. I GET 22-23 MPG ON SUBURBAN STREETS (NOT SHORT CITY BLOCKS). THIS IS WORSE THAN MY 2001 HONDA ACCORD THAT I TRADED IN FOR THIS CIVIC. ONE OF THE REASONS I BOUGHT THE CIVIC VS. THE ACCORD WAS DUE TO THE GREAT MILEAGE I WAS ASSURED I WOULD GET ON THE CIVIC. NOT EVEN CLOSE. I AM A LOYAL HONDA OWNER FOR THE LAST 25 YRS. THIS IS MY 4TH HONDA AND IT WILL BE MY LAST. I VIEW THIS CAR AS A LEMON. NO CAR (ESPECIALLY A HONDA) SHOULD NEED TO BE FIXED IN THE FIRST 24 HOURS OF OWNERSHIP. IT'S BEEN TO PAULY HONDA 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS OF OWNERSHIP. THEY HAVE BEEN VERY DEFENSIVE. BEWARE. HONDA DOES NOT MAKE THE CARS THAT IT USED TO MAKE. *TR
