POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
BOUGHT A 2001 HONDA CIVIC STARTED SLIPPING INTO 3RD. TRIED CHANGING TRANSMISSION FLUID WITH STOP SLIP TRANSMISSION FLUID. PROBLEM PERSISTED. ONE NIGHT IT STARTED DOING A CONTINUAL SLIP AND COULDN'T ACCELERATE. IF I WASN'T IN THE COUNTRY AND INSTEAD WAS IN A BIG CITY THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE VISOR DID NOT STAY UP ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT DUE TO BLOCKING MY VIEW. WITHOUT AN ATTENTIVE DRIVER IN THE OTHER CAR, I WOULD HAVE HIT THEM GOING FREEWAY SPEED. UPON CHECKING ON THE ITNERNET, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH HOMDA CIVICS. *TR

AIR BAGS
ON JUNE 29, 2010, SRS LIGHT ON 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS ILLUMINATED, INDICATING PROBLEM WITH AIRBAG. HONDA ADVISED THAT AIRBAG DETONATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AIRBAG HAD NEVER DEPLOYED, CAR HAD NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. HONDA ORIGINALLY REFUSED TO COVER COST OF REPAIR AND THEN MADE "GOODWILL" ADJUSTMENT TO COVER 38% OF COST. THE IDENTICAL PART FAILED ON AIRBAG ON OTHER SIDE OF CAR 2 WEEKS LATER. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
HONDA CIVIC LX - 17,000 MILES. NOISE FROM FRONT WHEN BRAKING. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT FRONT BRAKES HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED (PADS AND ROTORS). REFUSED TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY CLAIMING THAT THIS WAS NORMAL WEAR. COMPLAINED TO AMERICAN HONDA AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND CLEARLY DUE TO WEAR. THEY REFUSED TO COMMENT WHEN I ASKED HOW 17,000 MILES FOR NEW FRONT BRAKES COULD POSSIBLY BE CONSIDERED WEAR. MILES ARE ALL HIGHWAY DRIVEN. *TR

THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME I'VE HAD TO HAVE MY SUN-VISOR REPLACED ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE VISOR CLIP BREAKS, LEAVING THE VISOR TO HANG DOWN INTO YOUR FACE. THE VISOR WILL NEITHER STAY UP OR ALL THE WAY DOWN. IT POSES A SAFETY HAZARD DURING BOTH DAY TIME AND NIGHT TIME DRIVING. THE FIRST TIME THE PART WAS REPLACED WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AT 9 MONTHS OLD; THE SECOND TIME IT WAS REPLACED WAS A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. YESTERDAY I WENT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TO HAVE THEM FIX THE BROKEN VISOR AND THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME 75$ FOR THE PART + LABOR + TAXES. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD; ALSO THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM I CAUSED BY ROUGH-WEAR--IT JUST FALLS APART! *TR

1. NOTHING HAPPENED TO LEAD UP TO IT. IT JUST BROKE. 2. DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR SPLIT AND WON'T STAY UP. IT IS SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING AS IT'S ALWAYS FALLING DOWN AND CONSTANTLY TAKING MY ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ROAD TO TRY AND GET IT TO STAY UP OR TO THE SIDE. 3. TRIED TO FIND A USED ONE, BUT NO LUCK. HONDA WANTS ME TO PAY TO REPLACE IT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I WAS APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION AT APPROX. 45 MPH IN MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC.SEEING THAT THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL HAD JUST TURNED RED I APPLIED THE BRAKES. AT THAT INSTANT I HEARD A "POP" AND FOUND THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALMOST TO THE FLOOR AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WARNING LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED ON MY DASHBOARD. FORTUNATELY I MADE IT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WITHOUT STRIKING ANYONE. I "NURSED" THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAD A BLOWN BRAKE LINE. A NEW LINE WAS INSTALLED , AT A COST OF $280.00. I WAS TOLD THAT "YOU MUST HAVE HIT SOMETHING WHICH SHOT UP AND STRUCK THE LINE". I TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT, JUST AS I STATED ABOVE, "I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE AND HEARD A POP! I DEFINITELY DID NOT STRIKE ANYTHING! I THEN REQUESTED THE REPLACED BRAKE LINE WHICH I NOW HAVE IN MY POSSESSION. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN SHE NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE; LUCKILY SHE WAS NEAR THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED FROM AND DROVE TO IT. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED MY HUSBAND TO INFORM HIM THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. THIS 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS PURCHASED ON JULY 25, 2009 AND HAS THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER (8/3/10) AT 50,140 MILES!! IRONICALLY MY HUSBAND BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE HE WANTED TO PROVIDE OUR TEENAGE DAUGHTER WITH A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE! WE ARE AWAITING TO HEAR IF DEALERSHIP WILL BE ABLE TO GET HONDA TO PAY FOR THIS. AFTER READING SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS 1 WEBSITE, THEY BETTER OR I WILL BE CONTACTING EVERY MEDIA OUTLET UNTIL WE GET SATISFACTION! *TR

THE VISORS ON MY 2008 HONDA CIVIC LX HAVE SPLIT ALONG THE TOP SEAM WHICH RESULTS IN BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER VISORS UNABLE TO BE PUT ALL THE WAY UP OR ALL THE WAY BACK. THEY JUST HANG STRAIGHT DOWN. THIS IS INCONVENIENT AND POSSIBLY HAZARDOUS SINCE THE ONLY WAY THE VISORS CAN BE PUT UP REQUIRES BOTH HANDS. A COWORKER WITH A 2006 CIVIC LX SAYS HER VISORS DO THE SAME THING. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY HONDA CIVIC 2001, STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A SUPER BUSY STREET. MY CAR BEGAN TO REV UP EVERYTIME I NEEDED TO MOVE FORWARD. AND THEN AT A CERTAIN POINT I NOTICED THAT IT WOULD NOT GO PASS 40 KM/HR AND THEN I STOPPED FOR A BIT AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I STARTED MOVE OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE AND THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT GO PASS 20 KM/HR AND 2 MINUTES LATER, MY CAR STOPPED COMPLETELY. MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD BUT IT WOULD REVERSE. I WAS THEN FORCED TO TOW MY CAR TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD MECHANIC BUT NOW HE CAN'T SEEM TO FIND A TRANSMISSION AND SINCE THIS HAPPENED IN THE SUMMER, THE TRANSMISSION SHOPS ARE CLOSED. I HAVE LOST SO FAR 4 DAYS OF WORK BECAUSE I DO NO HAVE ACCESS TO A CAR. I AM STILL WAITING ... *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR CRACKED OPEN IN 2006 HONDA CIVIC EX. FROM INFORMATION ON THE NET, THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE, AND HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO SEE THIS AS A SAFETY HAZARD. I ALMOST GOT INTO A WRECK WHEN IT SUDDENLY FLIPPED DOWN IN MY FACE. I ALSO CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT TO DRIVE. HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART AT THEIR EXPENSE. THEY WANT TO CHARGE YOU 70.00 TO FIX THIS PLASTIC HAZARD. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2008 HONDA CIVIC WITH A LITTLE OVER 20,000 MILES. INITIAL SYMPTOM WAS A/C FAN WOULD SHUT IT'S SELF OFF AND ON. DEALER REPLACED A PART IN THE FAN MOTOR. LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LATER IT BEGAN AGAIN. THEN ON A SUNDAY THE A/C BEGAN TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND SAID THAT I NOTICED WHEN AT HIGH SPEED A/C STOPS WORKING BUT WORKS AT LOW SPEED WHEN EXITING HIGHWAY. DEALER SAID THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN AND RAN A COUPLE OF SOFTWARE UPDATES AND SAID IT WAS WORKING AGAIN. WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR THE PROBLEM RECURRED AND I RETURNED IT TO THE DEALER SAME DAY. THIS TIME THE DEALER DETERMINED IT WAS A CRACKED BLOCK. THEY SAID IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE COOLANT SYSTEM AND IF I HAD CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE CAR IT WOULD HAVE OVERHEATED AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DEALERSHIP WAS VERY HELPFUL AND GAVE ME A CAR TO DRIVE WHILE MINE WAS BEING REPAIRED. THEY SAID THAT THE NEW BLOCK WILL CONTINUE TO BE COVERED UNDER THE DRIVE TRAIN WARRANTY. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND A KNOWN ISSUE, IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN AND I WILL BE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD POSSIBLY WITHOUT WARRANTY COVERAGE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE WOULD SPORADICALLY LUNGE FORWARD. THE DEALER BURNISHED THE CLUTCH AND THE FAILURE WAS RESOLVED. APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER MADE THE EXACT SAME REPAIR TO THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE DEALER THEN ADVISED REPLACING THE CLUTCH. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THEY WOULD TAKE THE LIABILITY FOR A PERCENTAGE OF THE REPAIR COSTS BUT THE CONTACT DECLINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT
2007 HONDA CIVIC EX FAULTY AC CONDENSER. STOPPED WORKING ABRUPTLY. DEALER TOLD ME BEFORE LOOKING AT IT THAT IT WAS A ROCK THAT HAD PUT A HOLE IN IT. INDICATED THEY HAD SEEN NUMEROUS CONDENSERS ON 2007 HONDA MODELS THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED. THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT, EVEN WITH IT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE THEY DETERMINED IT TO BE A ROCK THAT CAUSED THIS SMALL HOLE. I FOLLOWED UP ON INTERNET AND SAW THAT THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF OTHER HONDA OWNERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM AND HONDA REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING TO HELP. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A DEFECTIVE MAKE IN THIS VEHICLE. HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. A CAR 3 YEARS OLD SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS HAPPENING TO IT. I HAVE MAINTAINED THIS CAR WITH ALL SERVICE AGREEMENTS AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY, 6-LANE ROAD WHEN MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON MY 2002 HONDA CIVIC. I SLOWED DOWN AS I WAS GETTING CLOSE TO AN INTERSECTION AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I WENT TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE REVVED UP BUT THE CAR DIDN'T MOVE. THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE ANTICIPATING MY MOVEMENT, BUT THEN HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES AND SWERVE AROUND ME SO THEY WOULDN'T HIT ME. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM
DURING MY DAUGHTER'S 5-HR DRIVE TO COLLEGE IN HER 2010 HONDA CIVIC (~ 3500 MILES ON IT), THE CAR'S A/C ABRUPTLY QUIT WORKING. AFTER CHECKING OVER THE INTERNAL CONTROLS TO MAKE SURE SHE DIDN'T HAVE A WRONG SETTING, SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION AND FOUND THAT THE CONDENSER HAD A HOLE IN IT APPARENTLY FROM A FOREIGN OBJECT (ROCK). UPON FURTHER INTERNET RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THIS SITUATION WAS NOT A RARE OCCURRENCE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS LISTED ON THE INTERNET OF THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I CONTACTED BOTH AMERICAN HONDA AS WELL AS THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD THAT HONDA WOULD NOT COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY. THE ISSUE IS DESIGN OR MATERIAL WORKMANSHIP RELATED, NOT AN "ACT OF GOD" OR UNLUCKY CIRCUMSTANCE. THE CONDENSER IS NOT WELL PROTECTED AS IN OTHER COMPETITIVE VEHICLES, SO IT IS MORE PRONE TO THIS ISSUE. OTHER PEOPLE DISCUSSING THIS ISSUE ON AN INTERNET "FORUM" ARE FINDING CREATIVE WAYS TO PROTECT THE CONDENSER WITH A WIRE "NETTING" BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT JUST BY REPLACING THE CONDENSER DOES NOT FIX THE ROOT CAUSE. SINCE THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, HONDA IS MOST LIKELY NOT GOING TO ADDRESS THIS IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER. AT THIS POINT, I'LL HAVE TO ASK MY INSURANCE TO GET INVOLVED AND PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE AND POTENTIALLY HAVE MY INSURANCE RATES INCREASE IF THIS RE-OCCURS. WE WILL HAVE A "LOCAL" HONDA DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE CONDENSER AND ASSOCIATED PARTS. MY OBJECTIVE HERE IS TO LET MORE PEOPLE KNOW THAT HONDA HAS AN ISSUE WITH THIS DESIGN/CONDENSER MATERIAL IN THE HOPES THAT THEY WILL ADDRESS IT. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, SEATS
2005 HONDA CIVIC EX AUTOMATIC CHOKE COMES ON EVERY TIME YOU START THE CAR --EVEN IF YOU DON'T NEED IT. AFTER IT COMES ON, YOU CAN'T SHUT IT OFF MANUALLY. NOT ONLY DOES THE CHOKE NEEDLESSLY COME ON, BUT IT COMES ON AT AN RPM THAT IS TOO HIGH. IT NEEDLESSLY BURNS FUEL, BUT ALSO PRESENTS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND CAUSES YOU TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR. HONDA IS REFUSING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE SOLUTION IS THAT THE CHOKE NEEDS TO BE MODIFIED IN THREE WAYS: 1) MANUALLY CHOKE SHUT OFF (WITH HANDLE, ACCELERATOR PEDAL, OR BUTTON), 2) 5TH GEAR DOESN'T DROP RPM SUFFICIENTLY AND CAR DOESN'T GET GOOD GAS MILEAGE, 3) VTECH ENGINE NEEDS TO BE MADE INTO A VTECH-E, SO THAT THE ENGINE GETS BETTER FUEL ECONOMY AT THE SLOWER SPEEDS AND MEET BOTH THE PUBLIC'S AND FEDERAL MILEAGE EXPECTATIONS. HONDA OFFERS VTECH-E, BUT THEY ONLY PROVIDE THIS ENGINE SERIES TO THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO BUY THE DOUBLE OVERHEAD CAM, SUCH AS THAT FOUND IN THE CIVIC SI OR IN SOME ACCORDS. THE SEATS IN THE 2005 HONDA CIVIC EX ARE DANGEROUSLY UNCOMFORTABLE AND POORLY DESIGNED. HONDA GIVES YOU NOTHING MORE THAN A BLOCK OF RUBBER TO SIT ON, WHICH CAUSES SKIN IRRITATION DUE TO A LACK OF HEAT DISSIPATION WITHIN 20 MINUTES OF DRIVING. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT SEATS ARE TOO FAR FORWARD AND SOMEONE OVER 5'9" IS GOING TO HAVE DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING THE CAR -- PARTICULARLY WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE LACK OF SPRINGS IN THE FRONT AND REAR SEATS POTENTIALLY CAUSES SPINAL INJURIES, DUE TO ROAD SHOCKS NOT BEING ABSORBED, FOR PEOPLE THAT DRIVE THE VEHICLE ON A DAILY BASIS. A CUSTOM UPHOLSTERY SHOP ADVISES ME THEY CAN'T UNBOLT THE SEATS BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS WILL GO OFF BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS HAVE DISTANCE SENSING. NOT ONLY IS THIS LUDICROUS, BUT OFFERS NO CONSUMER SAFETY. A QUICK REVIEW OF THE 2001 HONDA CIVIC EX WITH THE 2005 HONDA CIVIC EX SE REVEALS THAT THE 2001 IS SIGNIFICANTLY SAFER TO OPERATE THAN THE 2005 CIVIC . THE 2001 CIVIC HAS FOUR AIR BAGS IN THE FRONT, INCLUDING SIDE AIRBAGS IN BOTH DOORS. *TR

AIR BAGS, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL, AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW, SEAT BELTS
SRS LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT ANY REASON... DEALERSHIP ASSURES THAT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED ON MY MAKE/MODEL OF CAR... HOWEVER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT IS COMMON SCENARIO FOR MY MAKE/MODEL YEAR... WHILE SRS LIGHT IS LIT UP INDICATES PROBLEM WITH SEATBELTS AND/OR AIRBAGS, THE ISSUE WITH SEATBELTS IS THAT THEY WILL NOT ENGAGE/LOCK WHEN BRAKES ARE SLAMMED ON AND AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WHILE SRS LIGHT REMAINS LIT UP... HONDA CHARGES $90.00 TO HOOKUP TO DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM TO DETERMINE IF SEATBELTS OR AIRBAGS, SEATBELTS ARE COVERED UNDER LIFETIME GUARANTEE AND AIRBAGS ARE NOT... IF IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AS APPARENTLY IT IS WHILE VIEWING COMPLAINTS ON BOTH NHTSA.GOV AND HONDA FORUMS THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE SHOULD BE WAIVED AS WELL AS RECALL BE ISSUED TO REPAIR ANY AND ALL ISSUES WITH SRS, ISN'T IMPORTANT TO ENSURE SAFETY AND SAVE LIVES.... *TR
