ACCORDING TO A MECHANIC THAT LOOKED AT THE CAR, THE BAGS SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF. MEL RAPTON (IN SACRAMENTO, CA) WORKED ON THE CAR AT LEAST 5 DIFFERENT TIMES BECAUSE MY SRS KEPT COMING ON. THE LAST TIME WAS 12/6/14. CONSUMER SENT COPIES OF PAPERWORK SHOWING THAT THEY TOOK THE CAR TO DEALER REPEATEDLY BECAUSE THE SRS LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. UPDATED 6/11/18*JB

I WAS RECENTLY DRIVING AND MY HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING LOW BEAMS THE HIGH BEAMS STILL WORK PERFECTLY BUT THE LOW BEAM DON'T KNOW I BEEN READING AND ON THIS WEBSITE THERE IS A RECALL FOR MY MODEL AND MAKE BUT WHEN I OUT MY VIN NOTHING POPS OUT ...HOW CAN I GET IT FIXED LIKE OTHER DRIVERS

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE VIA MAIL SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. I FIRST VISITED THE HONDA DEALER IN BURLINGTON MASSACHUSETTS IN FEBRUARY THIS YEAR AND I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY HAD THE PART NEEDED TO FIX THE CAR. BY THE END OF JULY, I HAD ALREADY RECEIVED A SECOND LETTER REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE AND THE HONDA DEALER STILL HADN'T CALLED ME. I WENT THE FOLLOWING WEEK AGAIN, SHOWED THEM THE LETTER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD CALL ME THE NEXT YEAR. AS FOR NOW, THEY HAVE NOT DONE SO. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR! THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CAN ACTUALLY KILL PEOPLE, THIS CAN NOT BE TAKEN AS A JOKE. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

THE PAINT IS FADING AND PEELING VERY BADLY ON MY 2002 HONDA CIVIC...ALMOST TO THE POINT WHERE THE TRUCK, ROOF, AND OTHER AREAS OF MY RED VEHICLE ARE ALMOST WHITE!!! I KNOW THE CAR IS OLD BUT I HAVE A SILVER 2003 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR WITH DOUBLE THE MILES ON IT AND NO PAINT ISSUES WHATSOEVER. FROM ALL THE INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET, THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH INFERIOR QUALITY PAINT JOBS THAT HONDA REFUSES TO CORRECT. I HAVE WASHED AND WAXED THE VEHICLE REGULARLY AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE PAINT WOULD FADE AND PEEL LIKE IT HAS. TO TOP IT OFF, THE VEHICLE WAS KEPT IN AN INSIDE STORAGE FACILITY FOR THREE YEARS WHILE I WAS STATIONED IN JAPAN. I REALLY FEEL THAT HONDA NEEDS TO STAND BY ITS PRODUCTS AND RESTORE THE QUALITY THAT THEIR NAME WAS BUILT UPON.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA SAYING "...HAVE YOUR VEHICLE'S DRIVER'S FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACED, AT NO COST TO YOU." THIS IS PART OF NHTSA RECALL 14V-351 I GO TO THE DEALER - KEN HARVEY'S DUBLIN HONDA AND THEY SAY THEY WILL INSPECT THE AIR BAG AND IF IT IS NOT A TANAKA INFLATOR, THEN IT WILL NOT BE REPLACED. I SHOW THEM THE RECALL NOTICE SAYING IT WOULD BE REPLACED. THE SERVICE REP SAID THAT PER HONDA, THEY ONLY INSPECT AND IF IT IS NOT A TANAKA, THEN IT WILL NOT BE REPLACED. EITHER AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR AND OR THE NHTSA SHOULD CLARIFY THIS RECALL NOTICE. HONDA KNOWS EXACTLY WHICH CAR I HAVE AND SHOULD KNOW WHICH INFLATOR I HAVE. THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS THEY WILL REPLACE IT, BUT THEY NOW CLAIM IT IS NOT A TANAKA INFLATOR AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE IT.

DURING LAST YEAR NY STATE INSPECTION, A TECHNICIAN SAID, THE TWO FRONT STRUT WAS LEAKED; LATER ON WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR, I CAN HEAR A NOISE AND FEEL IT UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNSAFE. SO THIS YEAR INSPECTION IN PEP BOYS (STORE ID # 1072), I WAS ASKED TO REPLACE THE TWO, BY MONROE PART # 71433/71434, $204.39 PER UNIT.

THE ACCELERATION IS STICKING AND THE SPEED WILL DROP TO 0 IF CLIMBING UP A HILL USING CRUISE CONTROL.

WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR SYMPTOMS THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. DEALER DETERMINED TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED, BASED ON DTC CODES: P0700 A/T SYSTEM P0730 INCORRECT GEAR RATIO DEALER SAYS TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF (WITH A USED TRANSMISSION WITH 89,000 MILES ON IT A A SIX MONTH/6000 MILE WARRANTY) $2,700 INSTALLED. I DECLINED. CAR SEEMS TO BE RUNNING FINE BUT ENGINE WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON, CAUSING MA VEHICLE SAFETY INSPECTION FAILURE AND I NOW HAVE 60 DAYS TO REPAIR IT OR TAKE IT OFF THE ROAD. THE PROBLEM WITH HONDA TRANSMISSIONS SEEMS TO BE ENDEMIC, BUT A SECRET. OTHERS HAVE FARED MUCH WORSE WITH TRANSMISSION FAILURES ON THE ROAD.

I TOOK VEHICLE FOR AIR BAG INFLATOR RECALL, DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE, AT AUTONATION HONDA 385, IN MEMPHIS, TN. THEY HAVE DONE THIS WORK ON JUNE, 23, 2015. BUT DEALER STATES NEW SRS UNIT NEEDED AT MY COST OF ABOUT $ 800.00, OTHERWISE AIRBAG IS NOT GOING TO COME OUT AT THE TIME OF ACCIDENT . I CALLED HONDA, HEADQUATER, THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE SRS UNIT. I AM STILL AT SAFETY RISK OF DRIVING VEHICLE IF AIR BAG IS NOT GOING TO WORK. I FILL THE ISSUE OF AIR BAG AND SRS UNIT BOTH ARE CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER FOR AIR BAG TO WORK AT THE TIME OF ACCIDENT, AND HONDA SHOULD REPLACE SRS UNIT ALSO UNDER SAFETY RECALL WITH AIR BAG REPLACEMENT CAMPAIGN.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY GOING ABOUT 30 MPH IN MODERATE TRAFFIC WHEN THE CAR STOPPED RESPONDING TO MY GAS PEDAL AND THE RPMS JUST STARTED TO SPIKE UP. THIS PUT ME IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR ENDED ME BUT SWERVED AWAY. LUCKILY MY CAR MANAGED TO GLIDE TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND OUT OF HARM'S WAY. AFTERWARD I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED. I WAS QUOTED AT VARIOUS DEALERSHIPS THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE EXCESS OF 3000, SO NOW I'M STUCK WITH REPAIRS THAT EXCEED THE VALUE OF MY CAR.

I WAS PREVIOUSLY INFORMED BY HONDA THAT MY CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL AND I DID A SEARCH OF YOUR WEBSITE USING MY VIN NUMBER AND CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR WAS PART OF THE RECALL. WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID I HAD TO HAVE SOME PAPERWORK THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SENT BY HONDA IN ORDER TO HAVE THE AIR BAGS REPLACED. WHEN I TOLD THEM I NO LONGER HAVE THE PAPERWORK, THEY STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE AIRBAGS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR BUT I NEED IT TO GET TO WORK.

NEITHER AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND MY SEAT BELT (WHICH I USE TO BELIEVE IN) RELEASED WHILE MY CAR FLIPPED SEVERAL TIMES AND I WAS EJECTED. SINCE MY SEATBELT RELEASED IN THE MIDDLE OF FLIPPING SOMEHOW WRAPPED AROUND AND CUT AND BURNED MY ARM. MY ARM WAS ALMOST AMPUTATED 3/4 OF THE WAY. THANK GOD FOR THE 2 INCHES AND MY AMAZING DOCTORS I WAS ABLE TO KEEP MY ARM AFTER SIX SURGERIES INCLUDING PLASTIC SURGERY. MY ARM WAS ALSO BROKE. I NOW HAVE RADIAL NERVE DAMAGE WHICH MEANS I CAN NOT OPEN AND CLOSE MY HAND ALONG WITH LIMP WRIST. ALSO BOTH HIPS WERE FRACTURED ALONG WITH MY PELVIC.DUE TO THE LACERATIONS FROM MY SEAT BELT AN ARTERY WAS CUT WHERE I LOST ALOT OF BLOOD AND WAS TOLD I WAS TOUCH AND GO AT THE TIME AND WERE NOT SURE IF I WAS GOING TO MAKE IT, AFTER BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS AND SURGERIES I AM BEYOND THANKFUL TO BE HERE TODAY. AT THE AGE OF 25 I WAS PUT ON DISABILITY AND ALSO HAD TO FILE BANKRUPTCY DUE TO I HAD OVER 100K IN MEDICAL BILLS. FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS PLEASE GET IT FIXED IT COULD MEAN MORE THAN YOU KNOW. I REFUSE TO EVER BUY A HONDA AGAIN 10 YEARS LATER THEY NOW SAY THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. I HATE HONDA CORP WITH EVERYTHING IN ME. I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PLAY CATCH WITH MY CHILDREN AND WILL NEVER REMEMBER WHAT ITS LIKE TO JUST DO EASY TASKS THAT NOW TAKES ME HOURS. THAN

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND I HAD A HORRIBLE CAR ACCIDENT I HIT A 80,000 LB STEEL TRUCK MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED SO HARD IT BROKE MY STERNUM COME UP HIT MY CHIN BUSTING IT OPEN AND CHIPPING MY FRONT TOOTH. IT ALSO BROKE MY SHOULDER IN 3 PLACES FROM THE SEAT BELT AND AIR BAG TOGETHER. I HAVE BAD INJURIES FROM THE ACCIDENT AND CANNOT WORK FOR A YEAR OR MORE. *TR

ON MY RETURN HOME FROM WORK AS I SLOWLY CAME TO MY DRIVEWAY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN TRIED TO BRAKE TO STOP THE BRAKES DID NOT HELP CAR HIT THE GARAGE DOOR THAT WAS CLOSED STILL SPEEDING INSIDE THE GARAGE LIKE WILD BULL. THERE WAS AN OLD MERCEDES BENZ AND A MOTORCYCLE INSIDE THE GARAGE AMONG OTHER STORED GOODS THAT STOPPED THE CAR MOVING ANY FURTHER IF THE MERCEDES WAS NOT THERE I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY HITTING THE CONCRETE WALL OF THE GARAGE. THERE IS LOTS OF DAMAGE AT THIS TIME IN MY GARAGE AND LOTS OF DEDUCTIBLES I HAVE TO PAY TO GET THINGS FIXED, FOR SOMETHING OF NO FAULT OF MINE. I AM SO GLAD IT DID NOT HAPPEN BEFORE FEW MINUTES WHEN I WAS STILL ON THE ROAD AT A TRAFFIC HOUR AFTER WORK BETWEEN 6 TO 7 PM ON FRIDAY APRIL 10TH. DURING THIS ACCIDENT MY GARAGE FILLED WITH SMOKE I WAS TERRIFIED THINKING OF FIRE HAZARD NEXT I THREW MYSELF OUT OF THE CAR THEN CAME AND TURNED OFF THE CAR CALLED FIRE DEPARTMENT THEY CAME AND SAW THE GARAGE FULL OF SMOKE BUT THANKFULLY NO FIRE HAZARD. I AM LUCKY THIS DID NOT HAPPEN ON THE ROAD AND I AM THANKFUL I AM ABLE TO REPORT THIS SO SOMEONE ELSE WILL NOT GO THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS. *TR

TRANSMISSION FAILED WITHOUT ANY WARNING SIGNS ON 2001 HONDA CIVIC. MANY OTHER USERS HAVE HAD SAME ISSUE. *TR

THE SRS LIGHT HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY ON. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT THE RESULT OF FAILED SEAT BELTS OR AIRBAGS. POSSIBLE FAULT IS THE COMPUTER. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE COMPUTER FAILURE IS AS A RESULT OF ANYTHING I HAVE DONE. IT HAS BEEN ON FOR MANY YEARS. I DO FEEL THE RESPONSIBILITY RESTS WITH THE CORPORATION TO PRODUCE A CAR THAT DOES NOT EXHIBIT THIS BASIC DYSFUNCTION.

MY PASSENGER HEAD LIGHT IS OUT AGAIN. IT HASN'T HAPPENED IN A YEAR BUT IN THE PAST BOTH LAMPS HAVE WENT OUT MULTIPLE TIMES. I SAW THERE WAS A "SILENT " RECALL ON THE HEAD LIGHTS IN 2012, HOW DO I FIND OUT IF THIS IS THE PROBLEM? I'M THE ONLY OWNER. *TR

THIS CAR HAS A RECALLED TAKATA AIRBAG. I FIRST CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP IN OCTOBER AND HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG FOR 4 MONTHS AND HONDA HAS NOT RELEASED ANY PARTS. IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN HELP US? THIS IS A FIRST CAR FOR MY TEENAGE SON AND WE ARE OBVIOUSLY VERY CONCERNED THAT ALTHOUGH THIS ACCIDENT MIGHT BE RARE, THE OUTCOME WOULD BE DEVASTATING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT MOVED FORWARD INDEPENDENTLY.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

I HAVE A 2002 HONDA CIVIC SI AND I LIVE IN WETLANDS IN FL. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL FOR AIRBAGS AND I CALLED HONDA TO FIND OUT WHY NOT AND WHAT COMPANY MADE THE AIRBAGS. THEY STATED THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO ACCESS EITHER INFORMATION AND THEREFORE THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. THEY OFFERED NO ROUTE TO ADDRESS MY CONCERNS. *TR

CAR'S CLEARCOAT HAS BEEN FLAKING OFF THE ROOF AND THE TRUNK LID. IT FIRST STARTED WITH DISCOLORATION (LIGHTENED BLOTCHES) IN JUNE OF 2010 (8 YEARS AFTER PURCHASED NEW). CURRENTLY (FEB., 2015), 30% OF THE CLEARCOAT ON THE ROOF, AND 10% ON THE TRUNK LID HAVE FLAKED OFF. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN EXPOSED TO SNOW, ONLY TO CA CLIMATE. I'VE READ THAT THE CLEARCOAT ISSUE IS COMMON WITH HONDA AUTOMOBILES SINCE THE LATE 1990'S. I ALSO HAVE A 1993 ACURA LEGEND (236K MILES) THAT WAS EXPOSED TO THE EXACT SAME CLIMATE CONDITIONS, BUT THE CLEAR COAT ON IT IS STILL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. BOTH CARS ARE MAINTAINED THE SAME WAY. ALL MY CARS ARE WELL MAINTAINED ABOVE & BEYOND WHAT THE MANUAL RECOMMENDED. I THINK I'M FAIRLY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT CARS IN GENERAL (MECHANICAL, TECHNOLOGY, INDUSTRY TREND, ..ETC) BECAUSE I READ ABOUT IT AS A ROUTINE EVERYDAY, JUST LIKE MOST PEOPLE READ THE NEWS EVERYDAY. BASED ON THE COLLECTIVE INFORMATION I'VE READ IN THE LAST DECADE, I BELIEVE THE CLEARCOAT DEGRADATION FOR THE CAR YEARS COINCIDED WITH HONDA'S SWITCHED OVER TO THE USE OF MORE ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY PAINT (I.E. WATER BASED PAINT) IN THE LATE 1990'S OR EARLY 2000'S. ON MY OWN CIVIC, THE CLEARCOAT FLAKES BECOME VERY SOFT (ALMOST GEL-LIKE) WHEN WET FROM WASHING. I DON'T THINK THIS IS A SAFETY RELATED ISSUE. IT WAS A MANUFACTURING DECISION HONDA MADE WHICH PROVED TO BE LESS DURABLE. HONDA SHOULD BE CALLED OUT OF IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS MAKING AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I BROUGHT MY 2002 CIVIC TO BEL AIR HONDA (1800 A BELAIR RD, FALLSTON, MD) ON NOVEMBER 1, 2014 TO ADDRESS RECALLS TO THE FRONT AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. I WAS TOLD THAT PARTS HAD BEEN ORDERED PRIOR TO MY APPOINTMENT. AFTER MY SERVICE APPOINTMENT, I WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS IN FACT WERE NOT IN STOCK AND WOULD BE REORDERED, AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN THE PARTS ARRIVED. OVER 60 DAYS LATER, ON JANUARY 26, 2015, I RECEIVED NEW RECALL NOTICES FOR THESE PROBLEMS. UPON CALLING THE DEALERSHIP, I LEARNED THAT THE PARTS HAD NEVER BEEN ORDERED. THE PARTS HAVE ALLEGEDLY BEEN RE-ORDERED BUT AT THIS TIME THE CAR HAS STILL NOT BEEN REPAIRED. *TR

THE SRS AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON, THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE IS SENSING EXCESSIVE RESISTANCE IN THE SQUIB FOR THE PRETENSIONER. WE HAVE REPLACED THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE ONCE ALREADY, AND IT FAILED AGAIN. SO THE SRS AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON WHICH MEANS MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT GO OFF IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE? I SEE IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. CAN YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS AN ISSUE HONDA SHOULD BE MADE TO REPAIR? *TR
