2008 Honda Civic complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAG AND STEERING WHEEL AIR BAG INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE LEFT EAR, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE LOCAL DEALER, CAWOOD HONDA 2516 PINE GROVE AVENUE, PORT HURON, MI 48060) STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V346000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 108,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CIVIC. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS FAILED TO STAY UP AND WOULD CONSISTENTLY DROP, WHICH BLOCKED THE CONTACT'S VIEW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUN VISORS WERE CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

I HAVE A 2008 HONDA CIVIC EX (COUPE) THAT HAS SERIOUS PAINT ISSUES ON THE ROOF. THE BLACK PAINT HAS STARTED TO TURN INTO A CORRODED LOOKING AWFULNESS.

CAR BEGAN TO OVERHEAT WITH NORMAL USE. IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE ISSUE, A REPUTABLE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP REPLACED PARTS TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, NOT FULLY DIAGNOSING THE ISSUE THATS FOUND WITHIN BULLETIN 10-048. THE SHOP CORRECTLY DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE, HOWEVER WERE NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED WITH GENUINE HONDA PARTS. I WENT THROUGH THE RECALL REFUND PROCESS FOR 8 FULL MONTHS AFTER SUPPLYING ALL OF THE RELEVANT INVOICES, VEHICLE MAINTENANCE HISTORY, ETC. AND WAS DENIED ON THE BASIS THAT THE INVOICES HAD THE PREVIOUS DIAGNOSIS LISTED THAT WAS INCORRECT, BELOW THE CORRECT DIAGNOSIS OF A CRACKED ENGINE. HONDA IS NOT HONORING THEIR RECALL REFUND IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. HONDA THEN ATTEMPTED TO OFFER ME A COUPON FOR FUTURE SERVICE REPAIRS, CLEARLY SHOWING THAT THEY RECOGNIZE I HAD A CASE, HOWEVER SIMPLY DID NOT WANT TO PAY OUT THE PRICE OF THE REPLACED ENGINE. NOTE THE DATE LISTED BELOW IS THE DATE MY CLAIM WAS FINALLY REJECTED. AFTER WAITING 8 MONTHS.

I AM HAVING AN ONGOING PROBLEM WHERE MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY BEGINS TO REV UP AND ACCELERATE FORWARD. THIS ISSUE FIRST HAPPENED IN FEBRUARY 2017. I WAS IN A FAST-FOOD DRIVE THRU WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). THE ENGINE BEGAN TO REV UP TO 3000 RPMS. I SHIFTED INTO PARK WHICH CAUSED IT TO REV AT 5000. AT THAT POINT, I SHUT OFF THE CAR. I STARTED IT AGAIN AND THE CAR WAS FINE. I CONTACTED HONDA OF NORTH AMERICA. THEY SENT AN ATTORNEY OUT TO TALK TO ME AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. HONDA KEPT MY CAR MOST OF THE DAY AND TOLD ME THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THEY EVEN INSINUATED THAT MAYBE I HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL... I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 15 YEARS. I THINK I WOULD KNOW IF MY FOOT WAS ON THE GAS PEDAL... THEY TOLD ME THAT MY CAR WAS SAFE AND THAT IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN I SHOULD CONTACT THEM... THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN ON APRIL 24TH AT LAX AIRPORT. I WAS AT THE TOLL BOTH PAYING FOR MY PARKING AFTER A TRIP. THE CAR BEGAN TO REV UP JUST LIKE BEFORE. I THROUGH THE CAR IN PARK AND IT ALMOST RED-LINED. I SHUT THE CAR OFF. THE WOMAN AT THE TOLL BOTH WITNESSES THE INCIDENT. I TOLD HER TO GET HER SUPERVISOR AND ANYONE ELSE THAT COULD COME OVER. HONDA DID NOT TAKE ME SERIOUSLY THE FIRST TIME CLEARLY! HER SUPERVISOR CAME OVER. I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION TO HIM AND ASKED HIM TO FILM THE CAR AS I STARTED IT UP AGAIN. HE BEGAN TO FILM AND I TURNED THE IGNITION. THE CAR WAS REVVING AT 4000 AND RISING FROM THE MOMENT I STARTED IT. I IMMEDIATELY SHUT IT OFF. IT DID THIS TWO MORE TI

TAKATA RECALL - WE REACHED OUT TO GROSSINGER HONDA (6600 N WESTERN AVE, CHICAGO, IL 60645) REGARDING THE RECALL IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016. THEY SAID THEY WERE ORDERING THE PARTS AND WOULD REACH OUT WHEN THEY ARRIVED. THIS DEALERSHIP NEVER ORDERED THE PARTS NOR DID THEY REACH OUT. WE CALLED A SECOND TIME (IN NOVEMBER 2016) AND THEY SAID THE SAME THING - THAT THEY NEEDED TO ORDER THE PARTS. THIS DEALERSHIP NEVER ORDERED THE PARTS NOR DID THEY REACH OUT EITHER TIME. I'M WRITING THIS AS A FORMAL COMPLAINT AGAINST GROSSINGER HONDA FOR IGNORING CUSTOMER RECALLS RATHER THAN PERFORMING THE REQUIRED REPAIRS WITHIN THE 60 DAY WINDOW.

SUN VISOR SPLITS APART AND DOESN'T LOCK INTO PROPER POSITION. SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING THE VISOR WOULD COME DOWN ABRUPTLY ALMOST CAUSING A ACCIDENT.

I PURCHASED A 2008 HONDA CIVIC IN APRIL OF 2016, AFTER I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE BOTH OF MY FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE 2008 HONDA CIVIC I DISCOVERED THERE WAS A FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP. THEY TOOK DOWN MY INFORMATION AND SAID THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE AIRBAG CAN BE FIXED. THE RECALL LETTER STATES 'IN THE EVENT OF A PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RUPTURE, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL, POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. THE RISK OF SUCH OCCURRENCE INCREASES OVER TIME.' IT HAS NOW BEEN A YEAR SINCE I REPORTED THE RECALL AND HAVE YET TO BE CONTACTED TO HAVE IT FIXED. DUE TO MY RECENT ACCIDENT WHERE BOTH AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, I FEAR THAT I AM IN DANGER AND THIS IS THE CAR THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE DAILY. I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING HONDA ABOUT MY CONCERNS AND THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED. I JUST WANT THEM TO BUY MY UNSAFE CAR BACK FROM ME SO THAT I CAN BUY A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE.

I WAS CONTACTED LAST SUMMER (2016) REGARDING A RECALL ON MY AIRBAG VIA A LETTER IN THE MAIL. I CALLED TO MAKE A REPAIR APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER, THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS IN YET AND THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK WHEN THEY ARRIVED. I CALLED AGAIN IN THE FALL (2016) AND WAS TOLD MORE OR LESS THAT THEY WERE "BUSY" AND HAD A LOT OF CARS TO REPAIR AND I SHOULD CONTINUE TO WAIT. I CALLED AGAIN IN THE FALL 2016 AND WAS TOLD THE PERSON HANDLING THE AIRBAG RECALL WAS BUSY OR UNAVAILABLE AND TO CALL BACK AGAIN. I'VE RECEIVED A SECOND NOTICE IN THE MAIL IN APRIL 2017 REGARDING MY AIR BAG RECALL. THIS NOTICE SAYS THAT IF THE HONDA DEALER HAS FAILED OR UNABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT IN MY VEHICLE WITHOUT CHARGE WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME (60 DAYS) I CAN FILE A COMPLAINT. IT'S APPROACHING NEARLY A YEAR SINCE I WAS FIRST CONTACTED AND I TRIED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT THREE TIMES WITH MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS AIR BAG REPLACED. I FEEL I'VE BEEN VERY PATIENT WITH THIS RECALL, AS I'VE HAD OTHER ITEMS RECALLED OVER THE PAST YEAR AND REPLACEMENTS WERE MADE FOR THOSE ITEMS IN A MUCH MORE REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE TO BE PUT OFF AND TOLD HONDA IS TOO BUSY TO MAKE A SAFETY FEATURE REPAIR ANYTHING BUT A TOP PRIORITY.

THE SUN VISORS IN THIS CAR ARE A SEVERE PROBLEM AS THEY BREAK EASILY THROUGH NORMAL AVERAGE USE AND WILL NOT REMAIN UPRIGHT. THEY FALL DOWN AND HANG IN THE DRIVER FIELD OF VISION CREATING HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS POSING INJURY TO DRIVER AND ANYONE ELSE NEARBY. THE VISORS ARE NOT CHEAP TO REPLACE($50 TO $100 EACH) AND THE REPLACEMENTS ALSO BREAK IN A SHORT TIME. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED ONCE AND BOTH ARE BROKEN AGAIN. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW JUST LIKE THE ALLOY MIXTURE IN THE LOWER ENGINE BLOCK THAT CAUSES CRACKING IN THE COOLANT PASSAGES IN THE BLOCK (LOOK IT UP). HONDA IS SUPPOSED TO BE A QUALITY PRODUCT AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE QUALITY IS ERODING AND HONDA'S LACK OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY AND ADMITTING ERROR AND TAKING ACTIONS TO CORRECT FURTHER REFLECTS POOR COMMERCE AND CARE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS IN DEPTH BECAUSE THIS ISSUE HAS SATURATED THE WEB WITH COMPLAINTS AND NO ONE SEEMS TO BE DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. LETS BE PROACTIVE AND RECALL THE VISORS AND ISSUE UPDATED REPLACEMENTS TO SHOW YOUR CUSTOMERS YOU CARE AND ENSURE THESE CUSTOMERS WILL BE ALIVE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA PRODUCT IN THE FUTURE. DO THE RIGHT THING AND FIX THIS HAZARDOUS LIFE TREATING ISSUE NOW.

TAKATA RECALL" I JUST PURCHASED THIS 2008 HONDA CIVIC FROM A LOCAL USED CAR DEALER. THIS RECALL HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED ON THIS VEHICLE ACCORDING TO THE RECALL INFORMATION I RECEIVED WHEN I PUT THE VIN # INTO THE SYSTEM. SHOULD THE CAR DEALERSHIP HAVE CHECKED THIS OUT BEFORE SELLING IT. I KNOW I CAN TAKE TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT FIXED. I WAS JUST WONDERING WHAT THE RESPONSIBLE OF THE CAR DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE CLEAR COAT IS COMING OFF MY CAR. IT STARTED DOING THIS IN THE PAST YEAR. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE IT'S JUST ON THE TRUNK AND THE PANELS ON TOP OF THE SIDE WINDOWS. APPARENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL ( 14-034) BUT THIS HAS EXPIRED AND HONDA WILL NO LONGER COVER. I CALLED THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THE CAR AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER RECEIVED ANYTHING FROM HONDA. MY CAR WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS RECALL AND IT'S OBVIOUSLY CAUSED BY THEIR FAULTY PRIMER/PAINT MIX. PLEASE HELP.

THE PAINT HAS OXIDIZED SEVERELY ON THE ROOF AND TRUNK THERE ARE LAYERS OF PAINT COMING OFF.

I CANNOT FIND A HONDA DEALER TO REPAIR MY AIRBAG. THE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR 9 MONTHS. WHEN I CHECK ONLINE, IT ALWAYS SHOWS REMEDY IS NOT READY. WHAT SHOULD I DO? MY ZIP CODE IS CA 91770

I OWN A 2008 HONDA CIVIC. I PURCHASED A SET OF ECOPIA EP 422 TIRES ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD THREE FLAT TIRES. MY FIRST FLAT HAPPENED WHILE ON MY WAY HOME. I WAS ON A HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70 MPH. (MY TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE ON MY DASH IS FAULTY SO I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT WHEN IT CAME ON SINCE I ROUTINELY CHECK MY TIRE PRESSURES.) ABOUT A MINUTE LATER I NOTICED THE ROAD NOISE SEEMED LOUDER THAN NORMAL. VERY QUICKLY I STARTED TO FEEL MY TIRE BECOMING FLAT AND MY CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN ON ITS OWN. AS A YOUNG WOMAN I FELT UNSAFE PULLING OVER ON A DARK ROAD IN THE RAIN, AND IN A LOCATION THAT I WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH. I PULLED OFF THE NEXT EXIT AND DROVE VERY SLOWLY UNTIL I COULD PARK IN A WELL LIT GAS STATION. HOWEVER BY THIS TIME TIRE WAS TOTALLY SHREDDED. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN THE TIME SPAN OF 3 MINUTES, THERE WAS LITTLE WARNING OR TIME TO REACT. WHEN I GOT MY SECOND FLAT I WAS DRIVING WHEN IT LOST AIR. THE THIRD FLAT OCCURRED WHEN IT WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. I DROVE TO SCHOOL WITH NO PROBLEMS, AND ABOUT TWO HOURS LATER I FOUND THAT MY TIRE HAD LOST IT'S AIR. IN THE LASTTWO INSTANCES, MY TIRE BECAME FLAT WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE; NO NAILS, TEARS, OR GASHES. I HAVE THE ROAD HAZARD WARRANTY WHICH IS WHY I'VE STAYED WITH THIS BRAND, HOWEVER I AM CONSIDERING SWITCHING TO TIRES THAT ARE A LITTLE MORE RELIABLE. THE HEAT SHIELD IN THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL NOW MAKES A NOISE AND I BELIEVE IT WAS DAMAGED DUE TO THE TIRES UNRELIABILITY. EVEN WHEN THE TIRES WERE IN GOOD CONDIT

"TAKATA RECALL". THIS RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR ALMOST A YEAR AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX MY CAR. THIS RECALL COULD KILL MYSELF AND MY CHILD AND ANY OTHER PASSENGERS IN MY CAR IF WE WERE TO BE IN A CRASH! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

TAKATA RECALL (DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG): ON JANUARY 10, 2017 AT APPROXIMATELY 11AM, DRIVER STARTED VEHICLE, PULLED OUT OF A PARKING LOT, DROVE ABOUT 10 FEET AND THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENT, NOR DID DRIVER HIT OR RUN INTO ANY OBJECT ON THE ROAD. WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE ABOUT 35-40 DEGREES, PARTLY SUNNY SKIES. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALER, WHO STATED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM SHOWS IMPACT CONDITIONS CAUSED THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG SENSORS TO FIRE THE AIRBAG. AFTER REPORTING THE INCIDENT TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY, THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AT THE HONDA DEALER, REPORTING THE ISSUE AS "ELECTRONIC FAILURE". THE ADJUSTER'S REPORT ALSO STATES THERE WAS NO IMPACT THAT CAUSED THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR (NHTSA RECALL # 16V-346), WHICH WAS REPLACED AT NO COST. HOWEVER, THE DRIVERS AIRBAG INFLATOR IS NOT COVERED (ESTIMATE OF REPAIR APPROX. $3,200). IF THE DRIVER WERE 5 MORE MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD, DRIVER WOULD HAVE BEEN ON A 45 MPH ROAD. IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG, PLEASE INFORM THE NHTSA.

PAINT IS CRACKING AND PEELING OFF ON BODY OF VEHICLE.

THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THIS PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG PROBLEM RECOMMENDS NOT HAVING ANYONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IT HAS BEEN 9 MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED AND MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER INFORMS ME THAT HONDA STILL HAS NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. LITERALLY THIS DEFECT CAN KILL A PERSON IN THE EVENT OF A LOW SPEED ACCIDENT THAT TRIGGERS THE AIRBAG. THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH MATTER AND HONDA HAS NOT FIXED IT IN 9 MONTHS! IN ADDITION TO MAKING MY CAR LESS SAFE, THIS DEFECT PRESUMABLY LOWERS THE RESALE VALUE OF MY VEHICLE.

THIS CAR IS OVERALL GOOD BUT ITS PAINT QUALITY STARTED TO BECOME CHALKY AND DISCOLORED ON THE ROOF AND TRUNK IN 2015. I WONDER IF THIS IS GOING TO GET COVERED BY HONDA AMERICA BECAUSE THIS ISSUE MAKES MY CAR LOOK UGLY AND SO THE VALUE BECOMES AFFECTED. NOTE: I PARK MY CAR IN MY GARAGE MOST OF THE TIME IN CALIFORNIA.

TAKATA RECALL MAY 23,2016 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBERKA5 NHTSA RECALL NUMBER16V-346 RECALL STATUSRECALL INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE SUMMARY AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC. (HONDA) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2011 HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES. ACCORDING TO THE EQUIPMENT DEFECT NOTIFICATIONS (16E-042 AND 16E-043) FILED BY TAKATA, THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OVER-AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG IS ACTIVATED. OVERLY AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION CREATES EXCESSIVE INTERNAL PRESSURE WHEN THE INFLATOR IS ACTIVATED, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE INFLATOR BODY TO RUPTURE. HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED. SAFETY RISK IN THE EVENT OF AN INFLATOR RUPTURE, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL POSSIBLY CAUSING INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANT.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA DATED JULY 2016 ABOUT PROPELLANT WAFERS DEGRADING AND SAYS THAT "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED". AS OF TODAY, JANUARY 19TH, 2017 THEY DO NOT HAVE THE REMEDY READY YET ACCORDING TO YOUR WEBSITE. SO MY FAMILY HAS HAD TO AVOID USING OUR CIVIC AS I DON'T WANT TO HAVE MY HEAD CAVED IN BY A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG. THE LETTER STATES THE PARTS NEEDED WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. *TR

TAKATA INFLATORS - WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM MANUFACTURER FOR AIRBAG RECALL AND FIX

RECALL WAS DATED 5/23/2016 TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. I WAS NOTIFIED THIS PAST SUMMER THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE BUT I WOULD BE NOTIFIED LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. IT IS NOW 1/11/2017 AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FROM THEM TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE SINCE I CAN NOT HAVE A PASSENGER RIDE ALONG UNTIL THIS IS FIXED. I WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED ASAP OR KNOW WHAT KIND OF COMPENSATION CAN BE MADE. THANK YOU *TR

TAKATA RECALL RECALL LETTER IN SPRING 2016 STATED REPLACEMENT PARTS WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016 AND A FOLLOW UP LETTER WOULD BE SENT. AS OF JANUARY 2017, NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN SENT.

VISIBILITY WIPER. AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT, HTTP://SETTLEMENT-CLAIMS.COM/VISORSETTLEMENT/, BOTH VISORS WERE CHANGED AROUND 2011/2012. AS OF THIS SUMMER BOTH VISORS ARE EXHIBITING THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE PLASTIC CRACKS, RETENTION CLIPS PROTRUDE, AND VISORS TO NOT HOLD DESIRED POSITION. THIS AFFECTS VISIBILITY OR ABILITY TO OBSTRUCT SUNLIGHT. HONDA NA HAS AGREED TO COVER A SECOND REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. CASE NUMBER: 01679545.

THE BRACKET THE HOLDS THE ALTERNATOR AND IS CONNECTED TO THE ENGINE BLOCK SNAPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. I LOST POWER STEERING AND THE BELT CAME OFF. THE ALTERNATOR WAS JUST DANGLING. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW.

IT SURE IF IT IS A TAKAYUKI INFLATORS RECALL - BUT THE NOTICE FROM HONDA INDICATED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATER SUMMER OR FALL. IT IS NOW LATE DECEMBER AND I HAVE LOST THE USE OF MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH NO UPDATE AS TO WHEN THIS WILL BE RECTIFIED. I HAVE OWNED 6 HONDAS AND THIS MAY BE THE LAST. IT IS PATHETIC THAT WE CANNOT EVEN GET AN UPDATE. I WANT A CAR WHERE ALL THE SEATS ARE USABLE!!!

TAKATA RECALL: THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT CALLING ME TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND/OR PIECE THAT NEEDS REPLACING. THIS IS OUR FAMILY VEHICLE AND WE NEED THE VEHICLE TO TRAVEL FROM TUCSON, AZ TO LODI, CA FOR THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY, 2016. IT IS DANGEROUS TO HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE REMEDIED BY FALL, 2016. I AM READY TO SUE HONDA!! I NEED AN IMMEDIATE FIX FOR THE VEHICLE OR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE TO USE UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS FIXED. HONDA IS NOT OFFERING TO GIVE ME A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE!!!! I CANNOT PUT A PASSENGER IN MY VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF CAUSING THEIR DEATH IF THERE SHOULD BE A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW? I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA, GONE REPEATEDLY TO SAFERCAR.GOV, AND I AM GETTING NO RESPONSE! HELP PLEASE!

PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY WHETHER CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS. *TR

HONDA USED DEFECTIVE VISORS IN ITS NEW VEHICLES, AND THEN REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE VISORS WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS. HONDA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE VISORS WITH PARTS THAT ARE NOT DEFECTIVE.

TAKATA RECALL. YES THEY ARE SAYING THEY CAN'T DO THE RECALL RIGHT NOW OR ARE WAITING FOR PARTS AS DANGEROUS TIME IS PASSING. ALSO THIS IS MY SECOND HONDA CIVIC 2007 AND 2008 WHERE THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATOR BUTTON HAS FAILED @50,000 MILES. IS THIS NOT A HAZARD AS A PERSON PLAYS WITH THE BROKE EQUIPMENT WHILE DRIVING. *TR
