UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The visors on both the passenger and driver side split in half and were hanging down. This caused the visors to block my field of vision and made driving more hazardous. There were no warnings prior to failure; however, I found online that this is a known problem (https://considertheconsumer.com/class-action-settlements/honda-civic-visor-recall-settlement). Honda did not contact me concerning the recall and I did not find out about it until I googled the information.

1. SAFETY RECALL NOTICE INDICATIVE OF AIR BAG PROBLEM. TOOK TO DEALER. HE SAID THAT IT HAS BEEN FIXED AFTER AN HOUR OF STAY FOR PASSENGER INFLATOR-AND WHEN NOTICED WHILE DRIVING BACK, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME AGAIN. PRIOR TO THIS ALSO, THIS PROBLEM WAS NOTIFIED A FEW YEARS AGO, AND I GOT IT FIXED. DEALER ASKING MONEY FOR DOING DIAGNOSTICS AND THEN FIXING IT. 2. FRONT AND REAR BUMPER CLIPS FIXED SEVERAL TIMES-4 TIMES SPENDING MY OWN MONEY BUT ALWAYS A PROBLEM.

ENGINE
HONDA HAS PRODUCED FAULTY ENGINE BLOCKS ON CIVIC MODELS FROM 2006-2009 THAT TEND TO CRACK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL ON A HIGHWAY AND LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. HONDA EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY FROM 7 TO 10 YEARS INSTEAD OF ISSUING A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW THEY SOLD A FAULTY PRODUCT. ON TUESDAY, OCT 27TH 2020, DRIVING HOME FROM WORK THE CAR TEMPERATURE GAUGE MAXED OUT AND SHAKING WAS FELT AS IF THE CAR WAS GOING TO STALL. LUCKILY, THIS OCCURRED COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND NEAR MY RESIDENCE AND NOT WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE THE CAR COULD HAVE STALLED AND CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA SERVICE CENTER THE FOLLOWING DAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD CRACKED. THE ENGINE CRACKING WAS THE REASON THE CARS WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 10 YEARS BUT THE EXTENSION OF THE WARRANTY TO MY VEHICLE HAS EXPIRED. HONDA HAS QUOTED ME $6,395.40 TO REPLACE A KNOWN FAULTY ENGINE BLOCK. I BELIEVE A FAULTY ENGINE BLOCK CREATES AN UNSAFE CONDITION TO ALL DRIVERS AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY HONDA BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.

THE CARS COOLANT AND OIL KEPT MIXING AND THE COOLANT WOULD QUICKLY DEPLETE AND LEAK OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR, THE ENGINE WOULD ALSO HEAT TO THE MAXIMUM TEMP ON THE ENGINE IF I DID NOT CONSTANTLY FILL MY COOLANT. I WENT TO DISCOUNT TIRE TO GET THIS CHECKED OUT AND IT WAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK, I FOUND OUT THERE WERE RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT YEAR AND ISSUE BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED FOR SOME REASON! I FEAR ONE DAY MY CAR WILL BLOW UP ON ME AND HONDA SHOULD CORRECT THIS PROBLEM FREE OF CHARGE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON OCTOBER 28, 2020, I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET TO WORK, WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP AND SAW A BRIGHT FLASH. ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME COME THEN AFTER A SECOND EVERYTHING SHUT OFF. THE CAR STOPPED, BUT STILL ROLLING I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT. I TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR, BUT I COULDN'T. THE LOCKS WOULD NOT MOVE, ON EITHER DOOR. NOT MANUALLY. I WAS TRAPPED INSIDE. THANK GOODNESS THE CAR DIDN'T START A FIRE, BECAUSE I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT. NOT BY OPENING THE DOORS MANUALLY. THE METAL POLE THAT HOLDS THE HOOD UP CAME LOOSE SOMEHOW AND HIT THE BATTERY, WHICH MADE A SHORT AND SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN. REGARDLESS, THE CAR SHOULD UNLOCK MANUALLY IF THE POWER LOCKS DON'T WORK. I COULDN'T UNLOCK FROM INSIDE BY PULLING THE HANDLE OR THE LOCKS WOULD NOT MOVE/OPEN.

ENGINE
MY AUNT, PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 2007. SHE DIED IN 2015 AND OUR MOTHER PURCHASED THE CAR FROM THE ESTATE. AFTER THE PURCHASE WE SAW THE RE-CALL AND 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE CAR BECAUSE OF "ENGINE BLOCK CRACKING". WE TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER WHO SAID THAT SINCE THERE WAS NO COOLANT LEAKING, THERE WAS NO CRACK IN THE BLOCK AND HE COULD NOT FIX A CAR THAT WAS NOT IN NEED OF REPAIR. THE CARE HAD 70,000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME. MY MOM DIED THIS FEBRUARY AND WE AGAIN PURCHASED THE CAR FROM THE ESTATE. IT HAD 75,000 MILES ON IT. LAST WEEK, THE ENGINE BLOCK STARTED LEAKING AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH AN ENGINE BLOCK CRACK, AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WE COULD DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT HAD EXCEEDED THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR ONLY HAD 79,000 MILES ON IT. HONDA SHOULD HAVE MADE A 10 YEAR AND 100,000 MILE EXTENSION. WE WERE PENALIZED BECAUSE WE ARE LOW MILEAGE DRIVERS. THIS IS VERY UNFAIR AND SHOULD CONSIDER A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE. ANY ADVICE OR GUIDANCE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU, [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR

AIR BAGS, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE PASSENGER VISOR WILL NOT GO BACK UP AND HANGS DOWN WHICH COULD HAVE AN EFFECT IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THE VISOR MIGHT SNAP IF IT IS FORCED BACK UP AND VISIBILITY COULD BE A PROBLEM IF THE SUN COMES IN THAT WAY. I HAVE MAJOR CONCERNS FOR DEPLOYMENT OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE VISOR IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS TURNING ON ALL ROADS
