2012 Honda Civic complaints

WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN AT A BUSY AND DANGEROUS INTERSECTION I LOST POWER FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I MANAGED TO PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER UNTIL THE CAR ACCELERATED AGAIN. I HAD CALLED THE DEALERSHIP PREVIOUSLY ABOUT THIS RECURRING PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE DEALERSHIP PRIOR TO THE DATE OF THIS INCIDENT AND THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. BECAUSE OF SAFETY CONCERNS I TRADED THE CAR IN WITH MILEAGE AT LESS 2000. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE OR COMPLETE A TURN, THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 15. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 7,000.

WHENEVER THE PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT MOVES A LITTLE BIT, THE AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF. AND I GET A BIG NOTICE SAYING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF. THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM AND IS VERY SCARY IN MOST SITUATIONS. I WOULD NEED THIS TO BE FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE PLEASE. *TR

THERE IS NO ACCIDENT, HERE IS PROBLEM: I HAVE 6840 MILES ON A 2012 HONDA CIVIC LX 4DR. WHEN FUEL TANK FILLED TO ALL THE WAY, THE FUEL WAS SLAPPING ABOUT FRONT TO BACK WHILE HIT BRAKE OR PARKING. IT MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND FUEL SLAM INTO THE WALL OF FUEL TANK. I WENT TO HONDA LOCAL DEALER AND THEY TELL ME THIS IS NORMAL, YOU ARE NOT FIRST ONE TO COMPLAINT, BUT THERE IS NO SERVICE BULLETIN TO IT. THIS IS UNSAFE, 10 GAL GAS FLOW IN TANK WILL THROW OFF THE BALANCE WHILE YOU MAKE TURNS, OR CAUSE DAMAGE SENSORS IN THE TANK, OR CAUSE FUEL SYSTEM LEAK EVEN FIRE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED AS THE VEHICLE ENTERED THE DRIVEWAY ON AN INCLINE THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO MOVE IN REVERSE. THE GEAR SHIFT WAS IN DRIVE WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED THREE TIMES. THERE WAS ALSO A CLANKING NOISE WHEN THE GEARS CHANGED AUTOMATICALLY AND WHENEVER THE CONTACT MADE A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL DID NOT RETURN TO ITS NORMAL POSITION. THE VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 994.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE TRAVELING 4 TO 5 MPH A CRASH OCCURRED. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF AN INJURY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ACTUATOR FOR THE AIR BAG FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

HONDA CIVIC 2012 HAS A DEFECTIVE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR SYSTEM. MY SON WHO IS 14 YEARS OLD AND 102 LBS SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN HE MAKES ANY SHIFTS LIKE LEAN ON ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER, THE AUTO WARNS THE AIRBAG IS OFF. WE SEE THIS WARNING WITH BIG ILLUMINATION. WHEN THE PASSENGER CENTERS HIMSELF ON THE SEAT, THE WARNING GOES AWAY. THE LEAN CAN BE ON ANY SIDE. THE SLIGHTEST LEAN SUCH THAT HIS LEFT LEG IS NOT PUTTING ALL THE WEIGHT CAN TRIGGER THIS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER AND HE SAYS THIS IS BY DESIGN. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO HONDA MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY ARE LOGGED A REPORT. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS WITH TOYOTA, LEXUS, HYUNDAI. EVEN WITH A YOUNGER KID IT DOES NOT TRIGGER AIRBAG WARNING. SO THIS IS HONDA CIVIC DEFECT WHICH CAN BE CATASTROPHIC IN ACCIDENT SITUATION WHERE THE PASSENGER WILL BE SHIFTED BY COLLISION. *TR

THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THE CAR IS IT ACTS LIKE IT IS POSSESSED. FOR FURTHER EXPLANATION, THE CAR (WHEN PARKED) WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN HAVE ALL INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS FLASH LIKE CRAZY. THIS HAPPENS WHEN TURNING ON THE IGNITION AND THEN IF YOU TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION IT WILL CONTINUE AND EVENTUALLY STOP. ONCE IT STOPS THE BATTERY IS THEN DEAD. THE CAR THEN NEEDS TO BE JUMPED AND WILL RUN FINE FOR AWHILE UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. CAR IS DRIVEN DAILY AND THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED 4 TIMES. AS SUCH, THE DEALER HAS NEVER BEEN ABLE TO FIND OUT THE ISSUE SINCE WHEN WE TAKE IT IN THE CAR IS FINE. THIS HAS US VERY CONCERNED WITH KIDS AND OURSELVES, AS THIS COULD OCCUR AT ANYTIME, ANYWHERE. THIS IS THE 2 DOOR COUPE THAT THEY SHOULD START SELLING WITH A SET OF FREE JUMPER CABLES AS AN ACCESSORY. *TR

GAS INSIDE GAS TANK NOT STABLE EVERY TIME HIT A BRAKE GAS WILL SLAM INTO INSIDE WALL OF GAS TANK AND CAN HEAR NOISE THAT LIKE SOME THING FELT INSIDE GAS TANK AND FLOATING IN THERE, AND KEEP HIT TO WALL OF GAS TANK EVERY TIME STOP AT SPEED FROM 1 TO 10 MPH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE ON THE BRAKES IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE TO AN INCREASE TO AN ACCEPTABLE SPEED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MERGE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A MECHANIC TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 800.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, IF THE FRONT PASSENGER MOVED THEIR WEIGHT TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SEAT, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THAT THERE WERE NO FAILURES INDICATED ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 150.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DEFROSTER AND REAR DEFROSTER WERE ACTIVATED DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE FRONT AND REAR WINDSHIELDS WERE ICY AND WOULD NOT COMPLETELY CLEAR UNTIL TWENTY MINUTES LATER. THE HEATING ELEMENT WITHIN THE DEFROSTER AND REAR DEFROSTER WOULD NOT OPERATE PROPERLY UNLESS ACTIVATED FOR AT LEAST TWENTY MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE OPERATED ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000. UPDATED 04/09/13*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE MOST DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE, WAS THE NON-FUNCTIONING WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER. THE DASHBOARD AIR COMPRESSION SYSTEM WAS NOT STRONG ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, ONLY THE BOTTOM SIX INCHES OF THE WINDSHIELD WAS CLEANED OFF DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. IN THE SUMMER TIME WHEN IT RAINED, THE WINDOWS WOULD FOG UP FROM THE HIGH HUMIDITY, BECAUSE THE DEFROSTER WOULD CLEAR THE WINDOWS. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE DOOR LOCKS DID NOT WORK AND THE HEATING SYSTEM WOULD TAKE 10-15 MINUTES TO ACTIVATE, DEPENDING ON HOW COLD IT WAS. ALSO, IN THE WINTER TIME, THE POWER WINDOWS DID NOT WORK. THE WINDOW WOULD REMAIN IN ITS POSITION,. HOWEVER, THE MOTOR COULD BE HEARD RUNNING.. THE FROZEN ICE WITHIN THE PANEL PREVENTED THE WINDOW FROM MOVING UP OR DOWN.

AFTER FILLING UP FOR GAS, I TURN MY VEHICLE ON AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT CRAZY WITH WARNING LIGHTS AND AUDIO WARNINGS. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, WAITED A FEW SECONDS, AND THEN STARTED THE VEHICLE. THIS TIME THE VSA AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ON, ALONG WITH THE LCD SCREEN SHOWING A SYSTEM FAILURE ON THESE TWO SYSTEMS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VSA MODULATOR MODULE WAS COMPLETELY FRIED. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING TO ME, AS THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 827 MILES ON IT WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, AND THE MODULE FRIED WHILE SITTING AT A GAS STATION (THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING). THE DEALER IS FIXING MY CAR UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THE MERE FACT THAT THIS HAPPEN ON A VEHICLE WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE AND NOT MOVING IS A CONCERN - NOT TO MENTION THE PRICE OF THIS MODULE (~ $900.00). *TR

WE HAD THE HONDA CIVIC ALMOST 6 MONTHS,ALL THE DRIVING LIKE 99% HAS BEEN FWY DRIVING-ANYWAY,HAPPENED TO BE IN LA FOR AN APPT AND HAD A GOOD 40 FT BETWEEN ME AND THE CAR INFRONT OF ME.. CAR INFRONT APPLIED BRAKE SO DID I , I JUST KEPT GOING- BRAKE WENT TO FLOOR.. I WAS TOTALLY STUNNED.- HAPPENED SO FAST, I HAD NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO HIT CAR INFRONT.. IT KIND OF FELT LIKE SLIDING- IT WAS A SUNNY DAY, DRY OUTSIDE, NOTHING TO SLIDE ON BUT THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO DESCRIBE NOTHING TO STOP ME BUT THE OTHER CAR.. IF I WENT LEFT TO AVOID CAR, I WOULD VE BEEN HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC SO STUNNED THE BRAKES WERE NOT THERE..SO I REAR ENDED THE CAR THAT STOPPED US.. SHE HAD A LAREDO CHEROKEE- AFTER THE IMPACT WE WONDERED WHY THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T COME OUT, IT WAS PRETTY DIRECT.. I CAN ONLY GUESS THAT HER CAR WAS HIGHER SO THE SENSORS DIDN'T GO OFF?? CAR IS AT BODY SHOP FOR LAST TWO WEEKS.. I TOLD OUR INSURANCE, I TOLD THE BODY SHOP, I TOLD THE HUBBY AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT ASKED THAT I PUSHED THE BRAKE IN AND NOT A [XXX] THING HAPPENED.. I TALKED TO THE SERVICE GUYS AT THE HONDA THAT IT HAS SEEN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE GOING BY COMPUTER MENU THINGY.. I VE BEEN EARLY OR ON TIME GETTING IT SERVICED.. THEY SAID "THE BRAKES ARE SUPPOSE TO WORK THAT WAY" REALLY? I'D BE DEVASTATED IF THERE WAS AN ANIMAL, A PERSON, INFRONT OF ME I WOULD HAVE HIT THEM AND GONE OVER THEM.. I VE NEVER EVER HAD A CAR RESPOND THAT WAY.. AFTER THE HIT, I MOVED TO THE SIDE.. AUTOMATICALLY USED E BRAKE. I THEN DROVE IT A MIL

CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH SNAP SHOT DEVICE *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN THE MONITORING DEVICE WAS PLUGGED INTO THE VEHICLE OBD-II DIAGNOSTIC PORT, IT WAS SUPPOSED TO THE SEND CERTAIN INFORMATION TO HIS INSURANCE COMPANY, WHICH WOULD BE A 30% DISCOUNT OFF HIS POLICY. AFTER PLUGGING IT IN, THE DEVICE MUST REMAIN OPERATIONAL FOR A PERIOD OF SIX MONTHS. AFTER MONTHS OF DATA LOGGING, HIS INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD SEND A REBATE BASED ON HIS DRIVING HABITS. THE DEVICE WAS SUPPOSED TO MONITOR VEHICLE SPEED IN GRAPH FORM, THE TIME OF DAY/NIGHT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATIONAL IN GRAPH FORM AND THE NUMBER OF HARD BRAKES PER TRIP AND PER DAY. THE INFORMATION WAS PULLED FROM THE VEHICLES SYSTEM ONBOARD COMPUTERS. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE HAD TWO ISSUES WITH THE DEVICE; SHE STATED SHE DROVE AT THE NORMAL POSTED SPEED LIMITS AND SHE WOULD BRAKE IN A VERY CONSERVATIVE AND SAFE MANNER AND NOT SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES RESULTING IN A HARD BRAKE, WHICH HER INSURANCE COMPANY DEFINED AS GREATER THAN 7 MPH PER SECOND. SHE STATED SHE HAS ACCUMULATED AS MUCH AS 13-15 HARD BRAKES PER DAY AND SOME DAYS WITH ZERO HARD BRAKES BECAUSE SHE DROVER THE VEHICLE SLOW AS TO NOT HAVE TO BRAKE AT ALL, WHICH RESULTED IN THE NORMAL FLOW OF TRAFFIC, BACKING UP BEHIND HER, WHICH WAS AN ACTUAL A TRAFFIC INFRACTION.

PURCHASED MY CIVIC WITH DEFECTIVE WHEEL BEARING. I ONLY FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS, AFTER I PUT MY SELF IN DANGER WHEN A HONDA EMPLOYEE GUARANTEED THE PROBLEM WAS MINIMAL, IT WAS ONLY WORN TIRE NOISE AND I COULD DRIVE. I DROVE IT OUT OF THE STATE BACK AND FORTH, ON MY WAY BACK HOME I HAD TO STOP SEVERAL TIMES AS THE NOISE WAS PRETTY ANNOYING AND MY INSTINCTS WAS THAT I HAD TO STOP EVERY SO OFTEN UNTIL I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALER. IT WAS THEN WHEN THEY SAID I SHOULD HAVE NEVER DRIVEN THIS CAR SO FAR AWAY, THE WHEEL BEARINGS WERE IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE. MY HUSBAND AND I WROTE A LETTER TO HONDA, ASKING THAT BETTER TRAINING WAS OFFERED TO EMPLOYEES GIVING WRONG ADVICE AND INSISTING WE HAD TO GET USED TO THE NOISE INSTEAD OF CARING FOR OUR SAFETY, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED AND WE NEVER HEARD FROM THEM. FIVE MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPEN, WE TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST HONDA AND WE WERE TOLD THE SAME OLD STORY, THE PROBLEM IS A WORN TIRE. NOW SINCE WE ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE NOISE, WE TOOK IT TO THE FIRST HONDA WHO FIXED IT THE FIRST TIME, AND THE PART WAS REPLACED AGAIN. IT IS VERY SCARY THAT HONDA IS SELLING CARS WITH DEFECTIVE PARTS, NOT JUST ANY PART, BUT WHEEL BEARINGS, PARTS THAT COULD GET YOU KILLED. I WONDER IF HONDA WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS, AND IF I THE MONEY I PAY EVERY MONTH FOR THIS CAR, WILL ALLOW ME TO DRIVE IN PEACE. *TR

2012 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE VEHICLE AND CLUNKING NOISE COMING FROM GEAR SHIFT. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD LEAVE LINES AND SMEARS ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE WIPERS WERE REPLACED FOUR TIMES. THERE WAS A BUZZING NOISE COMING FROM THE HEATER, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND STAYED ON FOR AN HOUR. THE DIMMER LIGHTS DIDN'T CHANGE FROM HIGH TO LOW, THE SEAT BELTS DID NOT RELEASE WHEN SHE MOVED FORWARD, INSTEAD IT LOCKED UP AND THERE WAS A SMELL OF CARBON MONOXIDE COMING THROUGH THE VENTS. THE RUBBER SLIDES IN EACH WINDOW DID NOT WORK CORRECTLY, BECAUSE OF THE MOISTURE ON THE WINDOWS.

WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED IN A DOWNWARD SLOPE FACING DOWN, AND YOU ENGAGE THE REVERSE GEAR, THE CAR ROLLS FORWARD. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL IF YOU ARE PARKED IN A TIGHT SPOT AND YOU WILL ROLL AND HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF YOU. WE REPORTED THIS TO HONDA CORPORATION AND THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NORMAL BEHAVIOR. I DO NOT AGREE, SINCE MY OTHER CAR (DIFFERENT MAKE/MODEL) DOES NOT PERFORM THE SAME. *TR

DURING TEST DRIVE AND MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE, ENGINE BOGS DOWN OR STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC. HONDA SERVICE DEPT. CHECKED CAR AND FOUND NO APPARENT PROBLEMS. CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO SATISFACTION. SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE HESITATION WAS DUE TO A SAFETY FEATURE THAT DISENGAGES THE ACCELERATOR WHEN TOUCHING THE BRAKE. SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR HAS STALLED WITH NO USE OF BRAKES. THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" IS A SAFETY HAZARD. MY WIFE AND I HAVE ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS BECAUSE CAR STALLS IN TRAFFIC. THIS IS A DEFINITE "SAFETY HAZARD". *TR

ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 25TH, WHEN DRIVING ON A HILLY ROADWAY, I ACCELERATED TO P/U SPEED TO GET UP THE HILL. THE TRANSMISSION SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS STRAINING AND RPM WAS OVER 3000. WHEN I REACHED THE TOP OF THE HILL AND STARTED THE DESCENT, I HIT THE BRAKE TO REDUCE MY SPEED, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK WITH RPMS STILL OVER 3000. IT TOOK MORE THAN 10 SECONDS FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT DOWN. IF THERE WAS A VEHICLE IN THE SAME LANE AS MINE, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

2012 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER STATES PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE AFTER RECALL REPAIRS *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED AFTER THE RECALL WORK WAS COMPLETED, THE BRAKES STARTED MAKING A LOUD NOISE AND THE SPEEDOMETER INDICATED EIGHT MILES, WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY AT A STOP. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE, UNTIL SHE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. *JB

REV. SUDDENLY GOES ABOUT 3500PRM AND STAY THERE FOR A WHILE WHEN I DRIVE DOWNHILL. AT THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE LIKE NORMAL. SOMETIME THERE ARE CAR BEHIND YOU AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOUR CAR CAN NOT GO AS FAR AS THE CAR BEHIND YOU. PLEASE TEST THE 2012 HONDA CIVIC, THIS CAR HAVE PROBLEM. *TR

MY WIFE CAME TO A STOP AT OUR SECURITY GATE, USED THE REMOTE FOR THE GATE BUT IT WOULDN'T OPEN. SHE BACKED UP ABOUT 15 FEET TO TURN AROUND. WHEN SHE PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT LURCHED FORWARD BACK TOWARDS THE GATE AND WOULDN'T STOP WHEN SHE APPLIED THE BRAKES. IT DIDN'T SPEED UP AND IT WOULDN'T STOP. THE CAR WAS MAKING A GRINDING NOISE AS IT MOVED ALONG. SHE WAS JAMMING ON THE BRAKES AND IT STILL WENT RIGHT THROUGH THE CLOSED GATE, PUSHING IT OPEN AS IT WENT. IT KEPT GOING FOR ANOTHER 40-50 FEET UNTIL SHE THOUGHT TO PULL ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE CAR STOPPED. SHE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND GOT OUT, BADLY SHAKEN BUT NOT INJURED. AFTER CALMING DOWN, SHE GOT BACK IN THE CAR TO SEE IF IT WOULD START. IT DID. SHE DROVE IT TWO MORE BLOCKS TO OUR HOUSE. SHE HASN'T DRIVEN IT SINCE. SHE'S TERRIFIED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR

SUDDEN HIGH RPM WHEN EXCITING HIGHWAY RAMP,ENGINES RPM,S GO UP TO 4 OR 5,WHEN APPLYING BRAKE. *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 7:45 A.M. I ARRIVED AT WORK AND TURNED LEFT INTO PARKING SPACE TO PARK. I WAS DRIVING A 2012 HONDA CIVIC, WHICH WAS LESS THAN ONE MONTH OLD. THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR, JUMPED THE PARKING BUMPER AND STRUCK A CONCRETE WALL. THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND THE FRONT BUMPER WAS SCRAPED AND KNOCKED OUT OF PLACE. AMERICAN HONDA HAS INSPECTED THE CAR AND CLAIMS THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT BUT REFUSES TO RELEASE ITS REPORT TO ME. *TR

YOU CAN HEAR THE FUEL MOVING AROUND THE GAS TANK AND BANGING AGAINST THE GAS TANK WALLS WHENEVER I STOP. IT IS MOST SEVERE WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. I COMPLAINED TO THE HONDA DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ABOUT THE NOISE. THE DEALER LET ME KNOW THAT THE NOISE I WAS HEARING WAS THE FUEL MOVING AROUND IN THE FUEL TANK, DUE TO A DESIGN CHANGE IN THE 2012 MODEL WHICH REMOVED THE FUEL TANK BAFFLES. THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX THIS ISSUE ON MY CAR. I CALLED AND WROTE TO HONDA DIRECTLY COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND REQUESTING RESOLUTION AND THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED SHE HEARD A GRINDING NOISE WHILE BRAKING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER FOR AN INSPECTION AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE PADS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 12V256000 (POWER TRAIN: DRIVELINE: DRIVESHAFT) AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, ONE WEEK LATER AS THE CONTACT TURNED ON THE VEHICLE AND DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ALSO FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO DEALER FOR INSPECTION OR REPAIR. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,146.

WHILE TRYING TO SLOW ON A HIGHWAY CURVE BY PUSHING THE BRAKE, I WAS UNABLE TO DO SO. THE CAR CONTINUED TO SPEED UP AS I PUSHED THE BRAKE. I PULLED MY FOOT BACK AND REAPPLIED THE BRAKE WITH NO AFFECT, THE CAR WAS CONTINUING TO SPEED UP. I DO NOT KNOW IF I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE OR JUST SLAMMED THE BRAKE. THE BRAKE TOOK HOLD THE CAR JERKED. I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE AND CONTINUED TO DRIVE. FOR A BRIEF PERIOD I DID NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE CAR.. THIS WAS NOT MY FIRST UNEXPLAINED ACCELERATION INCIDENT. THE OTHER 2 TIMES I WAS SLOWING INTO A REDLIGHT BY JUST REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE GAS. THE CAR SLOWED AS I EXPECTED IT TO DO THEN IT JUST BEGAN TO SLOWLY SPEED UP. I WAS NOT GOING DOWN HILL. THE BRAKES WORKED AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATED THOSE INCIDENTS. *TR

I WAS TRYING TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH MY 8 MONTH OLD, 2012 HONDA CIVIC. AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL TO PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE AND BEFORE I COULD STEP ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AT A TREMENDOUS RATE OF SPEED, JUMPED A CURB AND WENT STRAIGHT INTO A BRICK BUILDING. THE CAR BOUNCED BACKWARDS ONTO THE PARKING LOT AND I WAS ABLE TO STEP ON THE BRAKE AND REGAIN CONTROL. THIS HAPPENED IN A MATTER OF A SPLIT SECOND WITH NO TIME TO JAM THE BRAKE ON AS THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR JOLTED TREMENDOUSLY, THE AIR BAG DID NOT GO OFF, BUT A SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH BOARD INDICATING "CHECK AIRBAG SYSTEM." *TR

I AM JUST DOCUMENTING THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A REAL GLARE PROBLEM DUE TO SIZE AND SLANT OF WINDSHIELD. THE ENTIRE IMAGE OF THE DASH APPEARS ON THE WINDSHIELD AND THE GLARE IS VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. I'M SURE HONDA HAS TRIED TO DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE MATTE FINISH ON THE DASH,BUT IT ISN'T WORKING. I FEEL LIKE I'VE MADE ONE OF THE BIGGEST MISTAKES IN BUYING THIS VEHICLE. I HOPE I DON'T RUN SOMEONE OVER, LOST IN THE GLARE. *JS

MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC LX COUPE HAS EXTREMELY VAGUE STEERING FEEL AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 55 MPH, CAUSING EXCESSIVE AND REPEATED CORRECTION TO MAINTAIN PROPER COURSE. THE CAR ALSO VEERS TO THE RIGHT ON A REGULAR BASIS CAUSING ME TO DIRECT THE STEERING WHEEL TOWARDS THE LEFT TO CONTINUE DRIVING STRAIGHT. THE DEALER HAS PERFORMED A 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT TWICE WITHOUT RESOLUTION. THEY HAVE ALSO INSPECTED THE STEERING AND SUSPENSION COMPONENTS, AS WELL AS DONE A ROAD TEST. NO PROBLEMS ARE REPORTED, THUS NO REPAIRS COULD BE DONE. PREVIOUS HONDAS DO NOT EVIDENCE THIS PROBLEM. THE ISSUE REMAINS AND IS PERSISTENT. *TR

WE BOUGHT THE HONDA CIVIC IN FEB 2012. DROVE ABOUT 1000 MILES. ONE DAY I FEEL LITTLE HESITATION IN THIRD GEAR. I OPEN THE HOOD TO JUST CHECK, AND FOUND THE WATER ALL OVER THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND HOOD LINER WAS WET AND SOGGY. I WAS SURPRIZE AND WORRYED THOUGHT COOLING SYSTEM BUSTED OR LOOSE HOSE CLAMP. BUT AFTER THAROUGH CHECKUP FOUND THAT RAIN WATER SEEP THRU BETWEEN FRONT HOOD LIP AND GRILL. I TOLD MY WIFE NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR, IT'S NOT SAFE, BECAUSE WATER CAN DAMAGE THE ELECTRIC COMPONENT AND MAY CAUSE FIRE. SO I DRY THE ENGINE AREA AS MUCH AS I COULD. SETUP THE APPOINTMENT WITH HONDA DEALER. FIRST OF ALL THE SERVICE SUPPERVISOR DID NOT BELIVE, AND THEN SHE CHECK COUPLE OF OTHER CARS SAME MODEL AND YEAR,AND FOUND THAT ALL THE CARS ARE THE SAME DESIGN NOTHING MISSING. SHE SUGGEST TO CALL THE HONDA MANUFACTURE. I ASKED FOR THE WORK ORDER, SHE SAID THERE IS NO PROBLEM SO NO WORK ORDER NEED TO FILLUP. I TALK TO SALE PERSON ABOUT ALL THIS; HE SAID THE SAME. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. I ASK FOR THE SERVICE MANAGER; AND SHOW HIM THE CAR AND PROBLEM; HE SAID THE SAME TO CALL MANUFACTURE. BUT ATLEAST HE AGREED TO WRITE THE WORK ORDER. THAT CONSUMER COMPLAINT THIS, AND WE COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. AS PER CONSUMER THE RAIN WATER GET IN TO ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND WET THE HOOD LINER AND OTHER ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT AND PLUGS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME AT NIGHT. I HAD MY HEADLIGHTS TURNED TO AUTO LIKE I ALWAYS DO. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME IT SEEMED DARKER THAN USUAL. WHEN I PULLED UP IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE, MY HUSBAND, WHO I HAD FOLLOWED HOME, TOLD ME MY DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS WERE ON, NOT MY HEADLIGHTS. HE CAME TO MY DOOR BEFORE I TURNED OFF THE CAR. I POINTED TO THE INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH TO SHOW HIM THAT THE HEADLIGHT SYMBOL WAS ON AND THAT MY DASH WAS LIT. I THEN GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND SAW THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE IN FACT NOT ON. I TURNED MY HEADLIGHTS TO MANUAL AND THEY CAME ON. AFTER THIS INCIDENT I BEGAN USING THE MANUAL SETTING FOR HEADLIGHTS UNTIL I HAD TIME TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALER. I ALSO AVOIDED DRIVING AT NIGHT WHEN POSSIBLE. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER, I WAS DRIVING HOME AT NIGHT WITH MY HEADLIGHTS ON MANUAL WHEN I NOTICED THAT IT SEEMED VERY DARK ON THE ROAD, THOUGH MY DASH WAS LIT AND THE INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ON. I TURNED MY HEADLIGHTS TO AUTO TO SEE IF ANYTHING WOULD CHANGE AND MY HEADLIGHTS TURNED ON. I TURNED BACK TO MANUAL AND THEY TURNED OFF AND THEN TO AUTO AND THEY CAME ON AGAIN. WHEN I ARRIVED AT HOME, I LEFT THE CAR RUNNING AND CHECKED MY HEADLIGHTS. THEY WERE ON IN THE AUTO MODE BUT CHANGED TO MY DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS WHEN TURNED TO MANUAL.

HI, I WOULD LIKE TO BRING TO YOUR NOTICE IN REGARDS TO MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC CPE. THE ISSUE IS WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. IN JANUARY WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS 9 YR OLD SON SAT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR 2 MILE RIDE, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SIGN SHOWED THE AIRBAGS ARE OFF. I CAN SEE THE AIRBAG LIGHT OFF ALL WHILE DURING MY DRIVE. I TRIED BY MAKING A ADULT SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THEN THERE IS NO WARNING SIGN ABT THE AIRBAGS. IT HAPPENS TIMES WHEN EVER MY FRIENDS 9YR OLD SON SITS IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I TOOK THE CAR TO T HE DEALER TO CHECK ON AIRBAGS, THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS OK. BUT AM NOT CONVINCED. BUT I FEEL CONCERNED ABT OTHER CARS, WHO DRIVE WITH KIDS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. KINDLY PLEASE CHECK WITH AIRBAGS RELATED TO THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. *TR

MY HONDA CIVIC EX-L 2012 FAILED TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED OR IDLING POSITION. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY FIVE TIMES IN THE THREE WEEKS I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE (CURRENT ODOMETER READING AS OF THIS WRITING IS 650 MILES). I HAVE NOTICED IT MOST OFTEN WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED OR IDLING POSITION TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN. HOWEVER THE LEFT HAND TURN MAY BE MORE NOTICEABLE AS I AM TURNING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC/CROSSING LANES AND THE FAILURE TO ACCELERATE, AND THE COLLISION RISK THE FAILURE IMPOSES, ARE MOST ALARMING. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED A LACK OF GAS PEDAL 'RESPONSIVENESS' WHEN STOPPED OR IDLING AND ATTEMPTING TO ROLL FORWARD SLIGHTLY AS ONE WOULD ATTEMPT TO DO IN A LINE OF VEHICLES. OF NOTE, MY HUSBAND HAS A HONDA CIVIC LX 2012 WHICH HE HAS OWNED FOR FIVE MONTHS. THE SAME FAILURE TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED OR IDLING POSITION HAS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING HIS VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY THREE TIMES. HE HAS NOT NOTICED IT, BUT ALMOST ALL OF HIS MILEAGE IS HIGHWAY DRIVING. I INTEND TO BRING MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THIS WEEK TO HAVE THIS POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD INVESTIGATED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 50MPH AT 2500RPM ALL OF A SUDDEN MY RPM WENT TO 4000 WITHOUT ME ACCELERATING MORE I GOT SCARED AND TRIED TO SLOWLY SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE BUT RPM REMAINED AT 4000. AND IT REMAINED LIKE THAT TILL I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED IT. *TR

MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC LX COUPE HAS EXTREMELY VAGUE STEERING FEEL, CAUSING EXCESSIVE AND REPEATED CORRECTION TO MAINTAIN PROPER COURSE. THE CAR ALSO VEERS TO THE RIGHT ON A REGULAR BASIS CAUSING ME TO DIRECT THE STEERING WHEEL TOWARDS THE LEFT TO CONTINUE DRIVING STRAIGHT. I HAVE HAD A HONDA DEALER ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, AND WHILE IT SEEMS SLIGHTLY BETTER THE UNDERLYING PROBLEMS, INCLUDING ITS VEERING RIGHTWARD REMAIN ANNOYINGLY PERSISTENT. *TR

I GOT INTO A ACCIDENT LAST MONDAY, FEB. 13, 2012, LIKE AROUND 8 OR 9 IN THE MORNING. I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN WHEN MY CAR WENT OUT OF CONTROL EVEN THOUGH I WAS ALREADY STEPPING ON THE BRAKES AND I WAS TRYING TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT BUT THE CAR JUST KEPT GOING TO THE RIGHT UNTIL I HIT THE POLE SIGN THAT SAYS "NO PARKING AT ALL TIMES" (SOMETHING LIKE THAT). THE METAL POLE THAT I HIT BROKE AND ALMOST 1/4 OF THAT METAL POLE THAT WAS STUCK TO THE GROUND SCRAPED THE BOTTOM OF PART OF MY CAR AND THE BOTTOM COVERING FELL OFF AND IT COST $4,000.00 TO REPAIR AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY $500.00 FOR MY DEDUCTIBLE WHICH IS NOT EVEN MY FAULT WHY MY CAR DID THAT. IT WASN'T THE FIRST TIME MY CAR DID THAT. IT DID SOMETHING WEIRD TWICE LAST YEAR BEFORE I GOT INTO THIS ACCIDENT LAST WEEK. FIRST WAS LAST YEAR, A MONTH OR TWO AFTER I GOT MY CAR WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I TRIED STEPPING ON THE BREAKS AND INSTEAD OF MY CAR SLOWING DOWN, IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. THANK GOODNESS THERE'S NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THEN THE SECOND TIME WAS I THINK AROUND NOVEMBER OR DECEMBER OF LAST YEAR WHEN MY FRIEND WAS TEST DRIVING THE CAR TO SEE IF SHE WANTS TO BUY THE SAME THING. WE WERE TOGETHER IN THE CAR AND SHE WAS DRIVING WHEN SHE STOPPED STEPPING ON THE GAS AND BRAKES AND THE CAR JUST ACCELERATED BY ITSELF. SHE WAS SURPRISED THAT IT THAT BUT WE BOTH FIGURED THAT ANY CAR IS JUST LIKE THAT AND SINCE WE BOTH DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT CARS WE THOUGHT IT WAS NORMAL FOR MY CAR TO ACCELERATE ON

2012 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO A NEWS ARTICLE REGARDING FUEL LINE LEAK DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING ERROR *TGW

THE CIVIC I HAVE IS ONLY FOR 3 MONTH AND AROUND 3000 MILES. IT WAS A SUNNY DAY, THE ROAD IS DRY. I DRIVE LIKE AROUND 50 MILES/HR ON GRAND CENTRAL PARKWAY IN NY, SUDDENLY I SAW PEOPLE HIT THE BREAK IN FRONT OF ME, THEN I HIT THE BREAK AS SOON AS I CAN. I DIDNT HIT THE BREAK TO THE END (JUST AROUND HALF) BUT THE TIRE START TO SCREAM. I RELEASE THE BREAK A LITTLE BIT AND HIT IT AGAIN BUT THE TIRE STILL SCREAM AND I KEEP SLIDING. I SLIDE WITH MY TIRE LOCKED FOR MORE THE 5 CAR DISTANCE. THE TIRES KEEP SCREAMING AND I COULDNT STOP. THEN I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE A DRIVING RECORDER AND RECORD EVERYTHING. WHICH I UPLOAD TO YOUTUBE. HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=CTU66KPO8YM AFTER THE CAR FIXED BY THE BODY SHOP, THE CAR BECOME BETTER. THE BODY SHOP HAD CHANGE A NEW ABS SYSTEM AND BREAK AND RESET THE COMPUTER IN THE CAR. NOW THE BREAK IS MORE SHARP THEN BEFORE AND THE ABS WORK FINE. (I TEST IT ON A RAINING DAY IN MY DRIVEWAY) OTHER THING IS THAT THE CAR BECOME MORE FUEL EFFICIENT. I TRY SO HARD IN THE BEGINNING BUT ONLY GET 26 GALLON PER MILE. NOW IT IS SO EASY TO GO UP TO 29-30. (IT HAS BEEN USED FOR ANOTHER 800 MILE AND I DRIVE IT ON THE SAME ROAD I GO TO WORK) I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT AND DON'T WANT TO LET IT HAPPENS ON OTHERS.

CAR SUDDENLY STOPS DEAD WHILE ACCELERATING TO MAKE LEFT HAND TURN. IT WILL RESUME ACCELERATION ONLY AFTER A FOUR SECOND PAUSE. TURNING INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC WITH A DEAD VEHICLE IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING INJURIES OR DEATH. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT THIS INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED TO MY VEHICLE. THE HONDA DEALER CAN NOT FIND THE CAUSE. THE ACCELERATOR SAFETY DEVICE SWITCH ON BRAKE PEDAL IS SUSPECTED. NEITHER I OR OTHER DRIVER EVER KNOWINGLY TOUCHED THE BRAKE PEDAL.

BATTERY DRAINS OFF AFTER CAR SETS FOR A FEW DAYS. WILL START UP NORMALLY BUT THE BATTERY LOOSES CHARGE AS YOU DRIVE EVEN THOUGH THE ALTERNATOR IS PUTTING OUT CHARGE. AFTER YOU STOP THE CAR AND TURN IT OFF IT WILL NOT START AGAIN. CAR STUTTERS AT STOPS DUE TO LOW BATTERY. RISK THAT THE BATTERY CAN FAIL AND THE CAR CAN LOSE POWER WHILE BEING DRIVEN. *TT

WHILE GOING UP A HILL ON MY DRIVEWAY THE VSA (VEHICLE STABILITY ASSISTANT) WAS ACTIVATED ON MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC DUE TO SLIPPAGE IN SNOW. THE VSA MODULATOR GOT STUCK AND THE VSA, ABS AND POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHTS INSTANTLY TURNED ON. UPON TURNING THE CAR OFF THE VSA MODULATOR REMAINED ON PRODUCING A LOW FREQUENCY HUM/VIBRATION. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TERMINAL LAST NIGHT TO TURN THE MODULATOR OFF SO THAT IT DOES NOT DRAIN THE BATTERY. THIS TYPE OF FAILURE ON CRITICAL SAFETY COMPONENTS SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING ON A 5 MONTH OLD CAR. LUCKILY THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT LOW SPEED (5 MPH). HAD THIS FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. *TR

WHEN MY 2012 CIVICS FUEL TANK IS FILLED ALL THE WAY, THE GAS SEEMS TO FLUSH BACK AND FORTH WHILE STOPPING OR PARKING ON HILLS. IT MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND THE GAS SLAMS INTO THE WALLS OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE IT THROWS OFF THE BALANCE OF THE CAR BY HAVING THE GAS FLOW IN SUCH AN ABRUPT MANNER. IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM SHOULD A 2012 CIVIC HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE LAST THING A NEW CAR OWNER WANTS IS A LOUD NOISE FROM THE FUEL TANK EVERYTIME THEY BRAKE, STOP, OR PARK ON HILLS. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT AND THAT ALL THE OTHER 2012 CIVICS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

WHILE I WAS DIVING ON 1ST OCTOBER NIGHT, MY DASH LIGHT WAS SUDDENLY TURNED OFF. IN HONDA CIVIC SPEEDOMETER IS DIGITAL, SO IT WAS TURNED OFF TOO. SO I WAS DRIVING WITHOUT CHECKING THE SPEED. LATER I TOOK MY CAR TO A NEAREST HONDA DEALER TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY REFUSED TO DIAGNOSE. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM, MANY TIMES TO HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT THEY DIDN'T TAKE ANY ACTION SO THAT THE DEALER CAN DIAGNOSE OR FIX THE PROBLEM. REGARDING THIS PROBLEM,I ALSO WROTE A MAIL TO AMERICAN HONDA'S CEO BUT GOT NO REPLY TILL NOW. AS A RESULT I AM DRIVING THIS CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM AND MY LIFE IS AT RISK. *TR

ENGINE STALLS AT LOW SPEED GOING AROUND CORNER, THEN STARTS ABRUPTLY AT A HIGHER SPEED, CAUSING DANGEROUS LACK OF CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED A DOZEN TIMES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2012 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A FUEL LEAK AND THE VEHICLE PULLED TOWARD THE RIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER ATTEMPTED ON TWO OCCASIONS TO REPAIR THE ALIGNMENT FAILURE, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT SHE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER WAS 11V288000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: DELIVERY: HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS). THE CONTACT PLANNED ON TAKING THE VEHICLE IN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WOULD BE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.
