SUSPENSION:REAR
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS REAR ALIGNMENT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED AND HAD CAUSE THE TIRES TO FAIL. THE DEALER HAS MADE THREE ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED AND ROTATED WHICH INCLUDED AN ALIGNMENT; HOWEVER, THE TIRES HAVE CONTINUED TO WEAR OUT PREMATURELY.

RAPID AND UNEVEN TIRE WEAR WITHIN 5K MILES. WEARS DOWN TO BELT AND BECOMES VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. HAVE HAD TO BUY THREE SETS OF TIRES. ROTATE TIRES EVERY 3000 MILES. HONDA ADMITS TO INSTALLING FAULTY REAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS BUT REFUSES TO REPLACE THEM UNLESS I PAY FOR THEM. IF A PART IS BAD FROM THE FACTORY WHY IS THE CUSTOMER RESPONSIBLE. *TR

IT COULD BE SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY, AND I COULD BE DEAD, TOO. BUT HONDA DOESN'T GIVE ME A GOOD RESPONSE FOR THIS CASE. I PURCHASED THIS CAR 35 MONTHS AGO, AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 68,000 MILES. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SERVICED SINCE PURCHASE BY HONDA OF DECATUR AS RECOMMENDED BY THE OWNER'S MANUAL. I HAD THE CAR SERVICED THE FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY WITH A TYPE B SERVICE. THE DEALER PERSONNEL DIDN'T MENTION ANY MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE DRIVE TRAIN AFTER THIS SERVICE. ON FEBRUARY 9, 2010 I NOTICE AN UNUSUAL SWEET SMELL AS I DROVE MY CAR TO THE AIRPORT. BECAUSE I WAS TRAVELING ON BUSINESS, I HAD TO LEAVE THE CAR AND PICK IT UP ON FEBRUARY 11TH. SHORTLY AFTER RETURNING ON FEBRUARY 11, 2010 THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE SHOWED THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND SOME SMOKE CAME OUT. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALER IN HUNTSVILLE, AL WHICH WAS THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. AFTER THE CAR WAS EXAMINED I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER'S SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THERE IS A CRACK IN ENGINE BLOCK. AT THIS TIME THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY A CAUSE FOR THIS CRACK. AS I EXPLAINED ABOVE THE CAR WAS RECENTLY SERVICED AND THE ANTI-FREEZE SHOULD HAVE PREVENTED FREEZE DAMAGE. THE DEALER HAS ESTIMATED THE REPAIR WILL COST $3,500-$3,700 AND BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE THEY INDICATE THAT HONDA OF HUNTSVILLE WILL NOT ABLE TO SUBMIT A WARRANTY CLAIM ON MY BEHALF. *TR

I HAVE PURCHASED THE BRAND NEW MARCH 2007 HONDA CIVIC ON MAY 2007. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR IS BROKEN AND DOES NOT REMAIN IN UP POSITION NOR REMAIN ON THE SIDE. THIS IS A DRIVING HAZARD AS IT BLOCKS AND OBSTRUCTS THE DRIVER'S VIEW, AND WILL HIT THE DRIVER WITH VEHICLE MOVEMENT. IT CAUSES A HUGE ISSUE WITH VISIBILITY ON THE ROAD. NOT SO MUCH DURING THE DAY BUT VERY MUCH AT NIGHT TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING TO DRIVE WITH IT AT NIGHT. IT IS UNDER WARRANTY FOR THREE YEARS BUT CAR DRIVEN MORE THEN 30,000 MILES. WHEN I GO TO SCHAUMBURG HONDA THEY SAID IT IS NEVER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT IS WEAR & TEAR. I ALSO HAVE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THEY DID NOT CARE TO VERIFY WARRANTY AND QUOTED ME PARTS $65.00 AND INSTALLATION CHARGE $36.00. THIS IS GIVEN IN WRITING BY DEALER ON 02/16/2010. *TR

PLEASE NOTE THE DATE IS AN ESTIMATE---THE OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE. VEHICLE: HONDA YEAR: 2007 MODEL: CIVIC: LX UPON BRAKING OF A BUMPY ROAD, THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE AT THE FRONT TIRES AND THE VEHICLES STOPS, BUT THEN SLIDES FORWARD. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN DECELERATING DOWNHILL ON WET SURFACE AND ON ROADS BEING REPAIRED WHERE THERE IS UNEVEN PAVEMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALER AND WAS INFORMED, "THERE IS NO PROBLEM." NO REPAIRS WERE MADE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAT 10K MILES. VEHICLE STILL ONLY HAS ~36K MILES. SAFETY CONCERN: AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP AS EXPECTED AND SINCE THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, MAY NOT BE RECOGNIZED BY THE DRIVER(S). *TR

SUSPENSION:REAR, TIRES
UNEVEN AND RAPID REAR TIRE WEAR IN THE 2007 HONDA CIVIC LX SEDAN 5 SPEED AUTOMATIC. THE UNEVEN AND RAPID TIRE WEAR IS ACCOMPANIED BY CONSTANT LOUD ROARING NOISE FROM THE REAR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEED. MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED REGULARLY ' I PAID THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO COMPLETE WHEEL AND TIRE ALIGNMENT, BALANCE, AND ROTATION EVERY 5000 MILES WHEN I TAKE THE CAR FOR A OIL-CHANGE, YET I ALREADY REPLACED 2 SETS OF TIRES AT 43000 MILES ' ONCE AT 19000 MILES AND ANOTHER ONE AT 39000 MILES. THE TIRES I USED WERE GOODYEAR EAGLE RSA P/N 42751-GYR-036 H/G 8270498 P205/55R16. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR MOST DRIVERS SINCE REGULAR DRIVERS DO NOT ANTICIPATE TIRE BALDING EVERY 20000 MILES AND PERHAPS THE DRIVERS ARE UNAWARE OF DRIVING ON BALD TIRES. THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A REAR UPPER CONTROL ARM ISSUE BUT REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. THIS PREMATURE WIRE WEARING IS CLEARLY A HONDA DEFECT AND A SAFETY CONCERN. *TW

2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID HAS ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES AND POWER. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE BRAKES WERE NOT BRAKING PROPERLY. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE BRAKES INSPECTED, BUT AFTER INSPECTING THE BRAKES AND ROAD TESTING, THEY STATED THE VEHICLE WAS PERFORMING NORMAL. THE CONSUMER CONTINUED TO HAVE BRAKING ISSUES, AND AFTER ALMOST HAVING A COLLISION DUE TO DECREASED BRAKING ABILITY, SHE AGAIN CONTACTED THE DEALER. THEY TESTED THE BRAKES AGAIN, AND FOUND NO PROBLEM. THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO FAIL ABOUT ONCE A WEEK. THE DEALER EVALUATED THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER STATED A REPORT FROM HONDA STATED THE IMA WILL STOP CHARGING AND STOP WITH ASSISTED BRAKING IF TEMPERATURES ARE TOO HIGH AND THAT IT IS NORMAL FOR THE CUSTOMER TO FEEL A DIFFERENCE IN BRAKING WITHOUT REGENERATION. HONDA ADVISED THAT THE CONSUMER DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN AND WHEN SHE PARKED THE VEHICLE TO LEAVE THEM DOWN AS WELL TO HELP COOL OFF THE HYBRID BATTERIES WHICH WERE LOCATED BEHIND THE SEAT. THE DEALER CONTACTED THE CONSUMER BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO PERFORM A COMPUTER UPGRADE ON HER VEHICLE. THE REPORT ALSO STATED UPDATED IMA CONTROL UNIT AND BATTERY SOFTWARE. THE CONSUMER DROVE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS AND NOTED SOME IMPROVEMENT WITH THE BRAKING ISSUE, BUT NOW THE IMA BATTERIES WILL NOT STAY CHARGED, AND IF THE BATTERY LEVEL GOES BELOW 4 BARS, WHICH IS 1/2 OF FULL BARS OR A COMPLETELY CHARGED BATTERY, THE VEHICLE'S POWER IS GREATLY DECREASED TO THE POINT OF HAVING TO TRAVEL AT SPEEDS OF 15-20 MPH FOR 15 SECONDS AFTER BEING STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE HAD 2 REAR END CAR ACCIDENTS WITH MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC. IN BOTH INSTANCES THE BRAKES HAVE FAILED CAUSING OVER $10,000.00 IN DAMAGE. I PAID THE FIRST ACCIDENT WITH MY OWN FUNDS TO AVOID MY INSURANCE FROM RAISING. THE SECOND ONE WAS PAID BY MY INSURANCE AS THE DAMAGE WAS MORE EXTENSIVE. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERS TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES AS THEY CONTINUE TO FAIL, BUT THEY CANNOT DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS UNLESS THEY CAN RECREATE IT. ONE DEALERSHIP PUT ON NEW BREAK PADS, A NEW ABS MOTOR/SWITCH, AND DRAINED THE BRAKE FLUID. I AM SURE THE OLD PARTS WERE EITHER DESTROYED OR SENT BACK TO HONDA, BUT I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE AVAILABLE. THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS WHEN IT IS VERY COLD AND DRIVING THROUGH PUDDLES OF WATER. THE LAST OCCURENCE I HAD TO DRIVE INTO A CURB TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN AS THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS TRIED TO GET HONDA TO RECOGNIZE THE ISSUE, BUT THEY WERE NOT SUCCESSFUL. HONDA CONTINUES TO INSIST I AM AT FAULT EVEN THOUGH THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR BRAKES. WHEN I USE THE BRAKES DURING THE COLD WEATHER WITH EXTREME MOISTURE, THEY GRIND LIKE A DRILL IN CEMENT OR METAL. THE NOISE COMES FROM THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL. IT IS NOT THE ABS BRAKES MAKING AS THE NOISE IS MORE FLUTERING THAT OCCURS ACROSS THE WHOLE FRONT-END AND THE CAR STOPS WHEN YOU SLAM ON THE BRAKES. THE LAST DEALER SERVICE TECHNICIAN TOOK ME ON A TEST DRIVE DURING SNOWY WEATHER, BUT IT DID NOT OCCUR. AGAIN, HE TOLD ME UNLESS THEY CAN RECREATE IT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO FIX IT. I'VE NOTED THE APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE WAS IN JANUARY, BUT 2ND ACCIDENT OCCURED IN FEBRUARY OF 2008. I GUESS I MUST GET KILLED BEFORE ANY DEALERSHIP OR HONDA TAKES ME SERIOUSLY AS I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO ANY MORE. THEY SEEM TO DISCOUNT THE SERIOUSNESS BECAUSE THEY CANNOT SEE ANY LEAKAGE WHEN THE EXAMINE THE BRAKES SO CONSEQUENTLY IT IS MY FAULT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION. HELP!! *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
CAR MODEL: HONDA CIVIC HYBRID 2007 THE CAR HAS A SLIPPING BRAKE. WHEN PULLING UP TO A STOP LIGHT OR SIGN THE BRAKE CAN AND FREQUENTLY DOES SUDDENLY LET GO. WHEN LESS THAN FULL FORCE IS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL THE BRAKE ENGAGES NORMALLY. HOWEVER, WHEN THE CAR NEARS A FULL STOP THE BRAKE SUDDENLY LETS GO. THIS CAN BE COMPENSATED FOR BY APPLYING ADDITIONAL BRAKE FORCE, BUT THE SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKING CAN BE STARTLING AND DISORIENTING. THE DEFECT HAPPENS ALMOST CONSISTENTLY UNDER THE CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE, NAMELY LESS THAN FULL BRAKING FORCE. I PERSONALLY BECAME ACCUSTOMED TO THE QUIRK. HOWEVER, MY WIFE HAS CLAIMED THAT THE DEFECT NEARLY CAUSED HER TO REAR END ANOTHER CAR AND HAS SINCE REFUSED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID, I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC ON A BUSY STREET. I WAS WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN INTO A BUSINESS. WHEN I WENT TO TURN, THE CAR WAS VERY SLUGGISH AND HAD WHAT APPEARED TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS ACCELERATION THAN NORMAL. THIS WAS CAUSED BY THE CAR'S COMPUTER RECALIBRATING THE BATTERY. THIS RECALIBRATING STARTED HAPPENING AFTER A SOFTWARE UPDATE. IT HAPPENS EVERY FEW DAYS AND THERE IS NO WARNING. WHEN IT HAPPENS THE COMPUTER ARTIFICIALLY LOWER THE CHARGE STATE FORCING THE CAR TO GO INTO REGENERATION STATE TO FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERS. EVEN THOUGH THE BATTER IS NOT REALLY EMPTY, SINCE THE COMPUTER SET THE BATTERY LEVEL TO BE EMPTY, THE ELECTRIC MOTOR IS NO LONGER USED. THERE SHOULD BE A WARNING TONE OR SOMETHING TO INDICATE THAT THERE WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF POWER. I BELIEVE THAT HONDA DID THIS SOFTWARE UPDATE TO MAKE THE BATTERIES SEEM TO LAST LONGER, BUT IT'S REALLY LESS SAFE! IT'S ALSO CAUSED MY MILEAGE TO GO DOWN BY ABOUT 10% BUT I REALIZE THAT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
2007 HONDA CIVIC EX SEDAN: UPON A TRIP (60 MILES) HOME FROM THE CLEVELAND AIRPORT 1-26-10, I SMELLED COOLANT BURNING AND A SUDDEN CLOUD OF STEAM FROM UNDER THE HOOD. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THIS INCIDENT, THE DETERMINED CAUSE WAS THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD CRACKED ALLOWING COOLANT TO BE SPRAYED ONTO THE MANIFOLD CAUSING THE BURNING SMELL AND CLOUDS OF STEAM. WHILE HONDA CANNOT PROVIDE A REASONING BEHIND THIS FAILURE, IT APPEARS OR WOULD SEEM TO BE A CASTING ISSUE FOR THE 2006-07 MODELS. THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 35K MILES AT THE TIME OF FAILURE AND HONDA DECLINED ALL EFFORTS TO ASSIST WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM HEARING AND SEEING NUMEROUS ISSUES EXACTLY IDENTICAL TO MINE WELL WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD FOR OTHERS AND HONDA IS CLAIMING THERE IS "NO" PROBLEM WITH THESE ENGINES. THE CAR HAS BEEN DEALER MAINTAINED AND HAS ALL HIGHWAY MILES DUE TO MY JOB. NOT SURE HOW MANY COMPLAINTS IT TAKES TO ISSUE A RECALL BUT THERE IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 CIVIC ENGINE CASTINGS. THIS OVERHEATING COULD ULTIMATELY LEAD TO A FIRE OR SERIOUS INJURY SHOULD A DRIVER NOT UNDERSTAND THE INDICANT AT HAND. I DO KNOW THERE IS A TSB REGARDING THIS PROBLEM #08-044. *TR

MY 2007 CIVIC EX COUPE CURRENTLY HAS A MILEAGE OF 66,000 AND I'M HAVING MY FOURTH SET OF TIRES INSTALLED TODAY, ALL OF WHICH WERE PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND ROTATED. I'VE HAD 2 HIGHWAY-SPEED BLOWOUTS IN THE LAST YEAR, AND SOMEHOW MANAGED TO AVOID SERIOUS ACCIDENTS BOTH TIMES. ALL OF THIS IS ON TOP OF THE RIDICULOUSLY LOUD ROAD NOISE GENERATED BY THIS ISSUE. THE INSIDE RIM OF BOTH REAR TIRES WEAR EXCESSIVELY FAST. I WAS UNAWARE OF ANY MANUFACTURING ISSUE AS HONDA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. APPARENTLY PEOPLE HAVE TO START DYING IN SUFFICIENT NUMBERS BEFORE HONDA WILL FIX THIS ISSUE WITH A RECALL.*CW *TR

THE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS ON BOTH SIDES OF MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC COUPE WERE DEFECTIVE. THIS CAUSED BOTH REAR TIRES TO BECOME BADLY "CUPPED" AND CAUSED EXCESSIVE ROAD NOISE. MY PERSONAL SAFETY WAS PLACED IN DANGER AS THESE REAR TIRES COULD HAVE FAILED AT ANY TIME POSSIBLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 23,000 MILES ON IT. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT HAS NOT INITIATED A RECALL. RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWS THIS PROBLEM TO BE EXTREMELY COMMON. *TR

EXPERIENCED UNEVEN TIRE WEAR ON REAR TIRES. APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND THE SERVICE BULLETIN 08-001. SYMPTOMS INCLUDE ROUGH RIDE AS IF TIRES ARE OUT OF BALANCE. OEM DUNLOP TIRES WERE ROUTINELY ROTATED AND BALANCED AND STILL REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AT 32K. NEW TIRES WITH 15K ARE SHOWING SAME ISSUES, CUPPING OF INNER TREAD EDGE. AT SPEEDS OF 50-60 MPH, SHAKE WAS SO EVIDENT THAT I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT HANDLING ABILITY. CHANGED UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND TIRES WITH MINOR IMPROVEMENT. *TR

WINDSHIELD WIPER DOES NOT PARK ITSELF IN THE RIGHT POSITION WHEN TURNING OFF.

WHEN THE WIPER FAIL TO PARK ITSELF IN THE CORRECT POSITION, IT BLOCKS DRIVER'S VIEW AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
