2001 Honda Civic complaints

WHEN BRAKING, CAR IDLE DROPS SO LOW THAT CAR TENDS TO HESITATE AND SOMETIMES STALLS. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO DEALER ABOUT 4 TIMES REGARDING IDLE AND STALLING. PCM WAS CHECKED EACH TIME, AND DEALER FOUND NO CODES. DEALER COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. CAR ALSO STALLED AND CUT OFF WHEN I WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AFTER APPLYING THE BRAKES. I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BY HONDA FOR THE LX AND DX REGARDING A SIMILAR PROBLEM. WHY HASN'T HONDA LOOKED INTO THE EX MODEL? WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM? COULD IT BE THE IAC? COULD IT BE THE PCM? I AM TERRIFIED OF DRIVING THE CAR. WHAT IF THE CAR CUTS OFF/STALLS AND AN ACCIDENT OCCURS? I HOPE HONDA LOOKS INTO THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE EX MODELS. A FEW OTHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN, AND THIS IS BEGINNING TO BE A GROWING CONCERN AMONG HONDA CONSUMERS. HONDA SEEMS TO BE A REPUTABLE CAR MANUFACTURER, HOW CAN THEY LET A PROBLEM LIKE THIS SLIP THROUGH THERE QUALITY CONTROL? I AM QUITE FRUSTRATED WITH THE CAR AND ALL THE PROBLEMS I HAVE BEEN HAVING. THE REASON I SPENT SO MUCH MONEY ON A HONDA, IS BECAUSE OF QUALITY. WHERE IS THE QUALITY? I HAVE EVEN HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVER SIDE CAR SEAT ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. DEALER FINALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM AFTER 4 ATTEMPTS. AGAIN I AM ASKING WHAT HAPPENED TO THE QUALITY IN A HONDA CAR, WHERE HAS IT GONE?*AK

WHILE TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY, I NEEDED TO BRAKE FOR THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. AS I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND BEGAN TO BRAKE, THE PEDAL STARTED TO PULSE AND THE FRONT END TO SHAKE. THE BRAKES COMPLETED LOCKED UP AND BEGAN SMOKING HORRIBLY. YOU COULD NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS ENGAGED WITHOUT ANY PRESSURE BEING PLACED UPON THE PEDAL. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED, IT WAS NOT DRIVEABLE. HONDA FIXED IT STATING IT WAS AN ABS HYDRAULIC PROBLEM. LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME EVENT OCCURRED WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. BRAKES COMPLETED LOCKED AND WERE SMOKING. VEHICLE AGAIN WAS NOT DRIVEABLE. HONDA SERVICE STATED THAT THEY HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS PROBLEM. THEY SAID THAT THEY WERE NOT REALLY SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS THAT WAS CAUSING THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO FAIL. THEY WOULD REPLACE THE MASTER CYLINDER TO SEE IF THIS WOULD RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. QUITE FRANKLY, I'M NOT SURE THAT I WANT TO TRUST ANYTHING WITH THE CARS' CURRENT BRAKING SYSTEM. I HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY TWICE, MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY A THIRD TIME.*AK

TEENAGE DAUGHTER DRIVING CAR HOME FROM COLLEGE. SUSTAINED HEAD INJURY AND BACK PAIN AS A RESULT OF STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING. SHE HIT THE CENTER CONCRETE DIVIDER HEAD ON. WE HAVE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED CAR. SHE WAS WEARING HER SEATBELT . *AK

FRONT WINDSHIELD HAD TO BE REPLACED ON THREE OCCASIONS WITHIN SEVEN MONTHS DUE TO A ROCK CHIP. DEALER NOTIFIED. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

PAINT IS DEVELOPING CROWS FEET IN FOUR SEPERATE PLACES. DEALERSHIP SENT ME TO A CONTRACTED BODY SHOP FOR EVALUATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY WARRANTY. BODY SHOP SAID THAT IT WAS DUE TO BIRD DROPPINGS OR SAP. HAD ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PACKAGE APPLIED AT TIME OF PURCHASE. I WASH THIS CAR ON A WEEKLY BASIS AND HOSE OFF BIRD DROPPINGS AS THEY ARE NOTICED. THESE PLACES ARE ALSO ON THE SIDE OF VEHICLE (NOT A FLAT SURFACE). I FIND THIS IMPOSSIBLE AND BELIEVE IT TO BE A DEFECT IN PAINT. BLEMISHES AND LOSS OF GLOSS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN THE PAINT. LANDMARK HONDA DID OFFER A FIX TO THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS UNACCEPTIBLE. WARRANTY INFORMATION ABOUT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PACKAGE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MAILED TO ME IMMEDIATELY AFTER APPLICATION. IT WASN'T. DEALER EXPLAINED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO THAT THEY PURCHASE AN INSURANCE POLICY ON THE PAINT WITH THE APPLICATION AND THAT THIS WAS NEVER DONE. THEY TURNED AROUND AND PURCHASED THIS INSURANCE AFTER THE FACT, MAILED ME THE WARRANTY INFO WITH 800 NUMBER, AND ASKED ME TO WAIT TWO WEEKS BEFORE CONTACTING THEM SO THAT IT WOULDN'T BE SUSPECT. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE INSURANCE FRAUD AND AS MUCH AS I DO WANT THE CAR FIXED, I DON'T WANT TO BREAK LAWS IN DOING SO. NO SAFETY DEFECT MENTIONED. *AK

REPAIRS FOR RECALL 01V183000 WAS PERFORMED, AND ENGINE STALLED INTERMITTENTLY, APPROXIMATELY 8 TO 9 TIMES SINCE THE END OF JULY. DEALERSHIP CANNOT DETERMINE CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION / ATTACHMENTS.*AK

CONSUMER STATED THAT, THIS VEHICLE HAD THREE MAJOR RECALLS REGARDING SAFETY. THE FIRST WAS THE POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE, WHICH WAS REPLACED WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE SECOND WAS, PRIOR TO RECALL WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLED. AFTER THE FACT HE RECEIVED TWO RECALL NOTICES FROM HONDA FOR THE FUEL PUMP CONNECTOR, 01V183000, THE VERY REASON THAT THE CAR SHUT OFF, AND FUEL TANK FILLER CONNECTOR ,01V182000, WHICH WAS REPLACED. *YD

CAR JUMPS OUT OF 2ND GEAR FOR NO REASON AT ALL. I CAN BE JUST DRIVING ALONG, AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN I'M IN NEUTRAL WITH CARS BEARING DOWN ON ME IN ALL DIRECTIONS. HONDA KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM, ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, BUT THE PART SUPPOSEDLY REQUIRED TO FIX IT IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. IN THE MEAN TIME, I'M STUCK IN A CAR THAT IS LIABLE TO MAKE ME A SITTING DUCK WHILE I TRY TO GET IT BACK INTO GEAR. HONDA SHOWS NO INTEREST IN GETTING ME OUT OF THE CAR UNTIL IT CAN BE REPAIRED.*AK

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP 5-6 TIMES. EACH TIME MECHANIC INDICATED PART FOR SRS WAS ON BACK ORDER. KEPT GETTING IT REPAIRED, BUT PROBLEM WOULD REAPPEAR.*AK CONSUMER STATES THE SRS LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME, CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, VEHICLE HAS BEEN FIXED, THE CONSUMER IS WAITING TO SEE IF THE REPAIR HAS TRULY FIXED THE PROBLEM.*JB

DISCUSSION WITH SERVICE DEPT. AT COLLEGE PARK HONDA INDICATED THIS PART WAS A COMMON FAILURE. HONDA DOES NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE. ESTIMATED TIME OF DELIVERY 4 WEEKS OR MORE. HONDA APPARENTLY DID NOT ANTICIPATE EARLY FAILURE OF THIS PART AND DOES NOT HAVE AN INVENTORY OF REPLACEMENT PARTS. BASICALLY, ANYONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM IS BEING EXPOSED TO A FATAL ACCIDENT OR SERIOUS INJURY SINCE AIRBAGS ARE INOPERABLE UNTIL THE CONTROL MODULE IS REPLACED. THIS IS UNDOUBTEDLY A CRITICAL SAFETY PART AND A FOUR WEEK WAIT FOR A REPLACEMENT IS UNACCEPTABLE. NHTSA SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AND FORCE SOME IMMEDIATE ACTION. AT MINIMUM, THIS PART COULD BE TAKEN FROM AUTOS BEING BUILT AND REDIRECTED TOWARD THE REPLACEMENT MARKET. SOMEONE NEEDS TO HOLD HONDA'S FEET TO THE FIRE AND FORCE IMMEDIATE CORRECTION.*AK

THE FACTORY REARVIEW MIRROR'S HEIGHT FROM THE FLOOR/CEILING CANNOT BE ADJUSTED, AND SINCE I AM SIX FEET TALL, THE MIRROR'S POSITION BLOCKS A LARGE FRACTION OF MY FORWARD VISION. THE MIRROR CAN COMPLETELY HIDE A CAR TRAVELING OR MERGING IN A LANE TO THE FORWARD RIGHT OF MY VEHICLE. ALSO, I HAVE TO SCRUNCH DOWN TO LOOK UNDER THE MIRROR IN ORDER TO MAKE A SAFE RIGHT-HAND TURN. I WILL BE REPLACING THE MIRROR WITH ONE THAT HAS TWO PIVOT-POINTS SO THAT ITS HEIGHT CAN BE ADJUSTED, AND I WISH THE GOVERNMENT WOULD ENCOURAGE HONDA AND ALL MANUFACTURERS TO USE MIRRORS THAT CAN BE REPOSITIONED SO AS NOT TO BLOCK THE VISION OF TALLER DRIVERS.*AK

THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE WILL BECOME ERRATIC AND STOP FUNCTIONING FOR A SHORT TIME. THIS SEEMS A BIT DANGEROUS TO ME. ALSO, THE FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATES TOO MUCH MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL REMAINS.*AK
