On August 9 while grandson was in route on I20 toward Birmingham, Al. to attend grandparent funeral, driver air bag exploded. He struggled to take a close next exit. He pulled car to side of road and ran away from car. He said it was full of smoke and small pieces. He feared the car was going to catch fire. His phone was dead and there was nothing off the exit so after smoke cleared and he felt safer, he drove car to my home and parked under carport. I called Sunny King Honda on Monday and they said that I had to contact American Honda. I was told they would send someone to inspect, but after many times calling, they said insurance needed to inspect. On October 1, Insurance looked at car and did car fax and found no reason for air bag to explode. They had already given me case number but finally a case manager, named Ilene, answered and said to take to dealership on October 24 for inspection and test. I spoke with guy at dealership and he said because car does not need to be driven, I could leave there and they would lock up. I have called again many times trying to find out when car will be fixed and she is not returning my calls. It has been 3 more weeks since dropping off at dealership. It is going on 4 months without car. This could have been a death complaint instead of needing repair. He was fortunate that his left arm was really red and no other harm. There was not a recall on his vin but common sense is air bag is for safety when hitting something to protect individua

Service Brakes

Each time I applied brakes I would hear a scraping sound in sync with a point or span of tire rotation. Then as I was attempting to stop at a red light the brakes failed. The nearest place was OR automotive and they rebuilt rear braking system yet I could hear the same scraping sound. So I carried the car to Honda dealership. They adjusted brakes $237.00 and replaced $341.00 the two rear drums. The sound remains and is magnified. They are claiming it is because e brake cables stretch. Somehow the stretching can cause entire rear brake on that side to catastrophically fail.

THE SUN VISOR FOR THE CAR HAS BEEN REPLACED EVERY YEAR SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, AS IT MELTS OFF IN THE SUMMER HEAT. THE VISOR WILL HANG AND BLOCK VISIBILITY FOR THE DRIVER CAUSING HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. AFTER 7 REPLACEMENTS, THE VISOR HAS SINCE BEEN REMOVED. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE DURING SUNRISE OR SUNSET. I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO GET RID OF THIS VEHICLE FOR THIS REASON, AS I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE IT FOR A LARGE PORTION OF THE DAY.

CAR LOST CONTROL ON THE ROAD AND MOVED OUTSIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAGS GOT DEPLOYED. WHEN THEY GOT DEPLOYED THE AIR BAGS DID NOT INFLATE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE HEAD TO BE HIT ON THE WINDOWS OF THE CAR PRETTY HARD. HOW COULD IT HAPPEN THAT THE AIR BAGS GOD DEPLOYED BUT NO AIR GOT INFLATED INTO THE AIRBAGS. THEY JUST FELL AS IF A CLOTH \ CURTAIN WAS COMING OUT WITHOUT INFLATING. ATTACHED PICTURES SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA.

FOR THE PAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN CALLING HONDA OF NORTH AMERICA REGARDING MY DASH FLICKERING OUT WHERE I CAN NOT SEE HOW FAST I AM DRIVING, MY ENGINE TEMPERATURE AND HOW MUCH FUEL IS LEFT IN MY CAR. ON OCTOBER 22, 2018 I FINALLY GOT IN TOUCH WITH SOMEONE AT HONDA IN THE PRESIDENT'S OFFICE WHO SAID THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY WOULD ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THEY TRANSFERRED ME TO AN AGENT WHO WAS CREATED A TICKET FOR MY COMPLAINT. THE TICKET NUMBER IS [XXX]. THEY SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME AND THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. WHEN I CALLED BACK IN ON TUESDAY OCTOBER 23, 2018 THEN TOLD ME THAT THEY DON'T WANT ADDRESS THIS ISSUE UNLESS I PAY FOR A HONDA DEALERSHIP TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON MY CAR AND I PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. FOR THE DIAGNOSTICS. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF MY HONDA BUT IF HONDA ADMITTED TO ME THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, I FEEL HONDA SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AT NO CHARGE TO ME. PLEASE CONTACT ME BACK AT [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

IS IT COMMON TO BRAKE AXLE? OR IS THERE ANY CHANCES TO BRAKE WHILE REPLACING WHOLE BREAKS(FRONT WHEELS)? I DID MY INSPECTION AND EMISSIONS LAST WEEK @ J L FREED. THEY WERE SOME RECOMMENDATION ABOUT BRAKE REPLACEMENT. I ASKED THEM TO GO FOR IT AND THEY REPLACED BRAKES AND PASSED INSPECTION AND EMISSIONS. VERY NEXT DAY, WHILE I PULL BACK MY CAR FROM DRIVE WAY AND SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. ENGINE WAS RUNNING BUT IT WAS MOVING FORWARD OR REVERSE. AT THE END, I DROPPED OF MY CAR(BY TOWED) BACK TO J L FREED, THEY SAID, SOME REASON AXLE IS BROKEN. I STATED THAT, IT MAY BE HAPPENED WHILE YOUR TECH WERE CHANGING FRONT BRAKES. THEY WERE NOT READY TO LISTEN AND DENIED THAT WE DIDN'T BRAKE IT. I PAID THEM TO REPLACE MY CAR AXLE BUT I WASN'T HAPPY ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT READY TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITIES. PLEASE ADVISE.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS DONT ALWAYS WORK. I WILL PUSH ON THE HANDLE AND THE WIPERS WILL NOT MOVE. THIS IS ALSO A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD, IF ITS RANING HARD AND I CANT SEE WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES THERE IS A HUGE DELAY FROM PUSHING HANDLE AND WIPER BLADES ACTUALLY MOVING. SOMETIMES, THE WIPERS WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. VERY DISSATIFIED WITH THIS HONDA. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE OFF. HAPPENED DURING THE SUMMER. ONLY USED A FEW TIMES AND GOT WORSE BY EVERY USE. THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN ON A NEWER CAR!!! THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. BLARRING SUN IN MY EYES WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE TO AND FROM WORK EVERYDAY. I HAVE NOTHING TO BLOCK OUT THE BLAZING SUN RAYS, EXCEPT SUN GLASSES, WHICH IS NOT SUFFUCIENT. HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED, AS THAT WOULD REQUIRE MISSING AN ENTIRE DAY OF WORK AND HAVING TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT. MANUFACTURING DEFECT!!! SAFETY HAZARD!!

DOES THE FAULTY SUN VISOR SETTLEMENT IN 2011 RING A BELL? MY 2011 CIVIC HAS THE SAME PROBLEM, SO APPARENTLY HONDA WASN'T WORKING ON CORRECTING THE ISSUE DURING THE SETTLEMENT TIME FRAME. I REPLACED IT ONCE IN LATE 2014 AND NOW IT NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN IN 2017. HOW DOES THIS NOT OBSTRUCT NIGHTTIME DRIVING? HOW DO YOU BUILD A GOOD ENGINE YET FAIL YEAR AFTER YEAR ON A LOUSY SUN VISOR? NEED A PHOTO? REFERENCE THE BILLION OTHER PHOTOS SENT DURING THE 2011 SETTLEMENT!

THE ORIGINAL DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WAS REPLACED IN 2014 DUE TO BREAKING APART ON THE PIVOTING SIDE AND NOW THE 2ND DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR IS BROKEN. THIS CAR IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND TWO DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISORS HAVE BROKEN DUE TO THE SAME DESIGN FLAW. NOW THE CAR NEEDS YET A 3RD DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR. THIS IS HIGHLY UNUSUAL AND IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW DUE TO NOT REMAINING IN THE NORMAL, STOWED POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN NEEDED TO BLOCK THE SUN ON A BRIGHT DAY IT DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE INTENDED DEPLOYED POSITION, BUT ONLY HANGS VERTICALLY WHICH IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD, NOT TO MENTION DISTRACTING THE DRIVER'S CONCENTRATION WHILE DRIVING. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MAY CAUSE A DRIVER TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY. THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN NOTED ON EARLIER HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES THAT DID REQUIRE A RECALL.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.

Most recent recall on file: Jun 27, 2019. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
