2016 Honda Civic complaints

FUEL LEAKS OUT OF THE CAP LESS SYSTEM WHEN FILLING GAS. AMOUNT OF FUEL VARIES. CALLED HONDA AND GOT NO HELP. THERE IS AN EXISTING DOCUMENT ON NHTSA WEBSITE, BUT NO UPDATES FROM HONDA. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN JULY 2016. HTTPS://STATIC.NHTSA.GOV/ODI/TSBS/2016/MC-10086567-2280.PDF SEVERAL USERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE IN FORUMS: HTTPS://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/FUEL-OVERFILL-HONDA-IS-AWARE-AND-WORKING-ON-IT.7079/ HTTPS://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/ANYBODY-HAVING-PROBLEMS-WITH-CAP-LESS-GAS-TANK.5331/PAGE-3

CRACK IN WINDSHIELD 5 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR FROM DEALER. WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MANUFACTURE OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. REPLACED, AND ONE YEAR LATER, REPLACEMENT GLASS HAS CRACK. REPLACED AND TWO MONTHS LATER, GLASS CRACKS AFTER HIT WITH DEBRIS FROM FREEWAY. IS THIS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE CAR? DOES THIS FALL INTO THE "LEMON LAW?"

TAKATA RECALL

MY VEHICLE BREAK SOME TIME DOCENT WORK....LIGHTING IS NOT PROPER AND ENGINE DOES NICE EVEN I DO SERVICING AND MENTION THEM BUT IT GOT IGNORED BY SERVICE CENTER

SOYBEAN WIRING ATTRACTING ANIMALS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 1 YEAR AND IT HAS HAPPEND TWICE WITH OVER 6,000 WORTH OR DAMAGE. LOCKED BRAKES, STEERING, ELECTRICAL . A CHILD RIDES IN THE CAR, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT WAS NEVER EXPLAINED TO ME. PULLED OVER TO PARK. AFTER TRYING TO RESTART MY VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT START EVEN WITH A JUMP ALL SYSTEMS, BRAKES STEERING LOCKED.

THERE IS A DENT ON MY CAR'S REAR UPPER QUARTER PANEL (C-PILLAR CREASE) ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THIS DENT IS PRESENT ON ALL 2016 AND 2017 CIVIC SEDAN CARS' EITHER ON DRIVER'S SIDE OR PASSENGER'S SIDE. HONDA DEALER DIDN'T ACCEPT THIS AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT. ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS NO OFFICIAL EXPLANATION FROM HONDA ABOUT THE ISSUE. I SUSPECT THAT IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS DENT PROBLEM EXISTS GLOBALLY, IT'S NOT A REGION SPECIFIC PROBLEM AS I HAVE SEEN.

AIRBAG ADVISORY LIGHT IS INTERMITTENT WITH OR WITHOUT A PASSENGER SITTING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE CAR IS MOVING OR WHILE THE CAR IS ON RUNNING AT IDLE. THE HAPPENS EVERYDAY.

2016 HONDA CIVIC LEASED IN OCTOBER OF 2016. I HAD SEVERAL ERROR MESSAGES COME ON SCREEN FOR MULTIPLE ISSUES SO I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD AN ANIMAL CHEWED THROUGH SEVERAL WIRES AND CAUSED THE POWER STEERING TO GO OUT. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AS THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES TO CARS BROUGHT IN. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRENTY ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. SO NOT ONLY DID I LOSE POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS A SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING MY 6 MONTH OLD CHILD IN THE VEHICLE, BUT ITS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FOOT THE $240 BILL TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE. ALSO THERE IS NO CLEAR SOLUTION TO PREVENT ANIMALS FROM AGAIN CHEWING THE WIRES AND PUTTING MY FAMILY AND I AT RISK AGAIN. THAT IS UNLESS I TAKE THE ADVICE FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHICH IS TO 'STUFF MY HOOD COMPARTMENT WITH FABRIC SOFTNER DRYER SHEETS BECAUSE ANIMALS DO NOT LIKE THE SMELL' WHICH AGAIN BRINGS UP SAFETY CONCERNSWITH A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

MY CAR WINDSHIELD WAS WAVY AND MANUFACTURER DEFECTED, SO I GOT WARRANTY REPLACEMENT, BUT EVEN THE REPLACEMET HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND EVEN MOR SPOTS IS WAVY, AND DEALER KEEP TELLING THIS IS NORMAL DUE TO "MANY WINDSHIELD IS THE SAME AS YOURS".

"TAKATA RECALL" I BOUGHT VEHICLE IN LATE SEP 2016. DEALER SAID RECALL WAS DONE. HAD MINOR ACCIDENT NOV. 2017, AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY?? OFFICER AT SCENE THOUGHT THAT TO BE UNUSUAL.

MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC COUPE TOURING WAS PARKED IN MY ATTACHED GARAGE AT NIGHT WITH ALL WINDOWS AND SUNROOF SHUT. IN THE MORNING WHEN I WENT TO THE GARAGE, BOTH WINDOWS AND THE SUNROOF (WHICH I NEVER USE) WERE WIDE OPEN. IN READING MULTIPLE CAR FORUMS, THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON, HOWEVER HONDA REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS AN ISSUE. I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH A FOB FUNCTION THAT IS PROGRAMMED TO INTENTIONALLY PERFORM THE WINDOWS/SUNROOF OPEN FUNCTION WITH THE FOB. HOWEVER, THIS FUNCTION HAS NO MEANS OF DEACTIVATION!! THIS CAUSES A RISK TO ALL CONTENTS OF THE CAR. DEACTIVATION SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE MADE BY CAR OWNER.

BROUGHT 2016 HONDA CIVIC TO DEALERSHIP WITH A/C NOT PROPERLY WORKING (BLOWING WARM AIR), WAS TOLD PRIOR TO DROP OFF THAT IT WAS LIKELY A STONE THAT HIT THE CONDENSER CAUSING A LEAK. DIAGNOSTIC TEST COST $135 + TAX, WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A STONE THAT PUNCTURED THE CONDENSER, WAS ASSIMILATED TO "JUST AS IF A STONE HAD HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND CRACKED IT, IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED." WINDSHIELDS ARE DESIGNED TO DEFLECT DEBRIS. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, AND APPEARS TO BE A COMMON (PREVIOUS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAS SETTLED ON EARLIER HONDA VEHICLES WITH THIS EXACT PROBLEM: "A ROCK PUNCTURING THE CONDENSER" DUE TO DESIGN FLAW). THIS IS ABSURD TO NOT TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE AND CHARGE CONSUMERS $900+ FOR A PROBLEM THAT COULD EASILY HAPPEN AGAIN IF A "SMALL ROCK OR PEBBLE" IS ABLE TO PUNCTURE A PART. 17,800 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, 18 MONTHS OLD. IF A SMALL PEBBLE CAN RUIN A CUSTOMER'S AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM ON A BRAND NEW VEHICLE, WHICH PER WARRANTY GUIDELINES IS NEITHER AN "ACCIDENT" OR "ABUSE" TO THE VEHICLE, IS THIS VEHICLE EVEN SUITED TO BE ON THE ROAD? VERY DISAPPOINTING AS I WAS A LIFE LONG HONDA OWNER.

CAR IS ONLY ONE YR OLD, NOT EVEN 33,000 MILES AIR CONDITIONER BLOWING HOT AIR, MANY OF MY FRIENDS HAVE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA WON'T HONOR WARRANTY. WANTS TO CHARGE OVER $500.00 TO START.

STEERING WHEEL STICKS WHILE DRIVING. WHEN I ADJUST THE WHEEL TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT PATH OR TAKING A CURVE, THE WHEEL STICKS CAUSING ME TO USE MORE FORCE THAN USUAL TO TURN THE WHEEL. BY USING MORE FORCE TO BREAK THE 'WHEEL STICK', THE CAR TENDS TO OVER COMPENSATE. YOU ARE FORCED TO ALWAYS HAVE BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL AND IT MAKES THIS CAR A VERY UNENJOYABLE AND UNSAFE EXPERIENCE TO DRIVE. BROUGHT THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT RECREATE IT. WILL BRING THE CAR TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP, IF THEY CANNOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE, WILL TRADE CAR IN IMMEDIATELY (CAR HAS LESS THAN 10K MILES ON IT). I WILL NOT CONTINUE TO HAVE MY FAMILY DRIVE IN THIS CAR IF PROBLEM CANNOT BE RESOLVED.

THE SUNROOF IN MY 2016 CIVIC EXPLODED THIS MORNING. THERE WAS NO VEHICLES AROUND ME OR OVERPASSES. IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT AND THEN I HEARD GLASS SHATTERING. THANKFULLY I HAD THE COVER CLOSED.

CAPLESS GAS TANK ALWAYS BACKFLOWS AND SPILLS GAS ONTO THE CAR IF I WAIT FOR THE GAS PUMP TO AUTO SHUT OFF. THIS NEVER HAPPENED WITH ANY OF THE OLDER CARS I HAVE OWNED. TO AVOID THIS FROM HAPPENING NOW I MANUALLY STOP THE GAS PUMP BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL.

MILO GORDON HONDA MISREPRESENTED THE REPAIR OF A SAFETY RECALL AND SOLD A 2016 HONDA CIVIC AS A NEW VEHICLE WITHOUT COMPLETING THE REPAIR. ON DEC 31 2016, I PURCHASED A NEW 2016 HONDA CIVIC FROM MILO GORDON HONDA IN LAWTON, OK. TODAY, SEP 1, 2017, MY ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED IN A STATIONARY POSITION ON A CROSS-COUNTRY TRIP. AFTER THE MALFUNCTION, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ORR HONDA OF PARIS TX WHERE I DISCOVERED THE RECALL OF 2016 HONDA CIVICS. ORR HONDA CONDUCTED A VIN INQUIRY THAT SHOWED THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS COMPLETED ON OCT 12, 2016, PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TESTED MY PHYSICAL VEHICLE AND THE REQUIRED UPDATE TO THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS NEVER MADE. IT APPEARS MILO GORDON HONDA UPDATED THE VIN DATABASE WITHOUT EVER REPAIRING THE ACTUAL CAR, THEN PROCEEDED TO SELL IT AS A NEW VEHICLE. AFTER THIS DISCOVERY, ORR HONDA UPGRADED THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECALL ISSUED IN 2016. (PHOTOS ATTACHED)

JUST DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET AT 45 MPH AND HEARD A BIG POP. PULLED OVER TO DISCOVER MY SUNROOF GLASS HAD ACTUALLY EXPLODED OUTWARD. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE FAULTY TEMPERED GLASS AND WANTED TO REPORT THIS ISSUE. THX

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT BREAK CAR WHEN CAR AHEAD SLOWS. SYSTEM THROWS 'COLLISION BRAKING MITIGATION SYSTEM', 'LANE KEEPING ASSIST', AND 'ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL' WARNINGS. DEALER HAS ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR WITHOUT SUCCESS.

THE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE CONTINUES TO GENERATE ERROR CODES. I'VE HAD IT IN SERVICE AT HONDA DEALERS MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA EVEN ISSUED A RECALL HOWEVER, I'VE HAD THE SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THIS PROBLEM TWICE AND IS STILL MESSING UP. IT HAS ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE ON ITS OWN.

AT A CERTAIN FREEWAY SPEED 60+ MPH WITH THE COMBINATION OF A PARTICULAR INCLINE OF THE ROADWAY THE BACK END OF THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SLIGHTLY FISHTAIL WHICH LEADS TO INSTABILITY IN CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE. THIS FISHTAILING ACTION TAKES PLACE AT THE DOWNWARD TRAVEL ON THE INCLINING ROAD. WE HAVE TESTED THIS PHENOMENON SEVERAL TIMES AND EACH TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE REACHES THAT CERTAIN SPEED AND CERTAIN ROADWAY INCLINE IT HAS DONE THIS FISHTAILING MOTION. IT'S BEEN ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT FREEWAYS WITH THE SAME DEGREE OF INCLINE. WE HAVE OWNED SEVERAL HONDA CIVICS AND ACURAS IN OUR FAMILY AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS DRIVING INSTABILITY IN ANY OF THESE VEHICLES. THE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED, THINKING THIS MIGHT BE THE ISSUE? NO CHANGE AT ALL. WE MENTIONED TO THE HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY LOOK AT YOU LIKE YOUR CRAZY AND SAY THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS. SO WE DECIDED TO FILL THIS COMPLAINT IN FEAR OF THE SAFETY FACTOR. WE HAVE 3 DIFFERENT PEOPLE THAT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AND EVERYONE HAS EXPERIENCED THE SAME FISHTAILING SENSATION. AS YOU INCREASE THE VEHICLES SPEED AND THESE PARTICULAR INCLINES, THE WORSE THE FISHTAILING GETS!!! WE FEEL IT MUST BE SOME KIND OF DESIGN FLAW RELATING TO THE AERODYNAMICS OF THE VEHICLE? OR IT'S NOT WEIGHTED DOWN PROPERLY? WE WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE A RESPONSE AND PLAN OF ACTION TO SEE WHAT EXACTLY IS CAUSING THIS FISHTAILING ISSUE. LIKE I MENTIONED NEVER HAVE WE FELT THIS IN ANY OTHER OF OUR HONDA CIVICS OR ACURAS DRIVING THAT EXACT FREEWAY A

DOOR PROMINENT, DEALERS DO NOT REPAIR, THEY SAID THEY CAN NOT REPAIR

LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN KING ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2016 HONDA CIVIC DEFECTIVE CAR. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE BLUETOOTH WOULD FREEZE DURING AN INCOMING CALL. THIS CAN ONLY BE CORRECTED BY SHUTTING THE VEHICLE OFF. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IDLE THE AIR CONDITIONER WOULD BLOW HOT AIR. THE STEERING WHEEL MELTED BLACK PARTICLES ONTO THE DRIVERS HANDS. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPLACED. *JS

ENGINE EATEN BY RATS 2 TIMES; ENGINE HARNESS DESTROYED FIRST TIME; CAR HASN'T BEEN THE SAME SINCE THIS; FOUND MORE RAT DROPPINGS IN THE ENGINE; CAR SHAKES SO BAD THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS HARD TO SEE OUT OF CAR IS NOT STABLE ON ANY ROAD; ALIGNMENT HAS BEEN DONE 4 TIMES ON VEHICLE STILL NOT ALIGNED; HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES THEY TELL ME ITS THE ROAD; CAR DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY; WHEN TURN ON CAR IT SHAKES FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES UNTIL WARMED UP. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE.

AFTER PARKING AND LOCKING MY VEHICLE, WHEN I LATER RETURNED TO MY CAR ALL FOUR WINDOWS WERE OPEN APPROXIMATELY 3/4 OF THE WAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. IN ONE INSTANCE, THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED PRIOR TO A RAINSTORM AND AFTER THE RAIN HAD ENDED, I WENT OUT TO THE CAR TO GO ON AN ERRAND AND AGAIN ALL FOUR WINDOWS WERE 3/4 OF THE WAY OPEN.

ON TWO OCCASIONS, MY CIVIC HAS "LOCKED UP". UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATE AND THE CAR WON'T GO INTO GEAR. I WAS STUCK WHERE I WAS AND HAD TO GET THE CAR MOVING SO I FORCEFULLY ENGAGED THE VEHICLE BY INSERTING THE KEY INTO THE SHIFT KNOB AREA. WHEN DRIVING THE CAR, ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE STILL ON AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO MOVE, THE VEHICLE WAS VERY HARD TO MANEUVER, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK WELL, AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I EVENTUALLY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND "RESET" THE COMPUTER THAT WAY. THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY FOR A FEW MONTHS, THEN CAME BACK AGAIN SAME EXACT WAY. THE NEXT TIME, I DID THE SAME THING, DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND IT RESET. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS PROBLEM IS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, TRANSMISSION, BRAKING, OR WHATEVER. ALL I KNOW IS IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AFTER I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION. ONE OTHER POINT TO MAKE, I ALREADY HAD THE "PARKING BRAKE RECALL" SOFTWARE UPDATE COMPLETED BY HONDA. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM AND ALL THEY COULD DO WOULD BE RESTART THE CAR UNTIL THEY WERE ABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM. I DID NO THINK THIS WAS A GOOD USE OF TIME (THEIRS OR MINE) SO I AM HOPING FOR A RECALL SOON!

MY STEERING WHEEL STICKS. WHEN I AM DRIVING STRAIGHT WHILE MAINTIANING A STRAIGHT PATH YOU HAVE TO MAKE STEERING ADJUSTMENTS. IT STICK AND THEN CAUSES ME TO OVER COMPENSATE. WHEN DRIVING AROUND A CURVE I CAN LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT HOLD THE CURVE AND DOESN'T ROLL BACK TOT HE CENTER POSITION LIKE IT SHOULD. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CANT RECREATE IT SO NOTHING GETS FIX. IT HAPPENS ABOUT 40 PERCENT OF THE TIME. IT HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION. MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE TOO WEAK TO HANDLE A MEDIUM TO HARD RAIN STORM. I WAS CAUGHT IN A BAD STORM WHILE ON THE FREEWAY AND HAD MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON FULL SETTING BUT STILL NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO ALLOW SAFE VISIBILITY. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS AND FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE.

UPON STARTING VEHICLE, CENTER CONSOLE SCREEN WAS BLACK. WHEN I TAPPED THE POWER BUTTON, THE SCREEN FLASHED GREEN AND WENT BLACK. NO RADIO FUNCTION, NO CAMERA FUNCTION, NOTHING. I DROVE ON CITY STREETS TO THE GAS STATION AND IN A FEW MINUTES, THE COMPUTER SUDDENLY WOKE UP BY ITSELF AND HAS BEEN FINE SINCE. JUST CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. WOMAN SAID NO ONE HAS CALLED ABOUT A PROBLEM LIKE THIS, BUT THEY'D BE HAPPY TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC FOR $100. I'VE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE WITH MY OLD PRIUS. THEY'LL RUN THE DIAGNOSTIC AND TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG BECAUSE THEY CAN'T RECREATE THE PROBLEM. MEANWHILE I'LL BE OUT $100 AND MY TIME. AND LOOKING AT FORUMS ON THE INTERNET, THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR OTHER HONDA OWNERS, SO HONDA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. IT CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE. DRIVE BY WIRE IS DANGEROUS IF MANUFACTURERS CAN'T GET RELIABLE SOFTWARE. WE'LL SEE IF I HEAR BACK FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OR NOT ABOUT TSB OR SOFTWARE UPDATES. I DOUBT IT.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SUNROOF EXPLODED. NOT GOING UNDER ANY OVERPASS OR BRIDGE. GLASS RAINED DOWN ON ME AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NO CARS NEAR ME. AND NOT DRIVING UNDER AN OVERPASS OR BRIDGE AT THE TIME.

MARCH 2017 - TWO INSTANCES WHILE PUTTING GAS, NOZZLE GOT STUCK IN THE CAPLESS SYSTEM CAUSING OWNER PANIC, LEFT WITH NO INSTRUCTIONS TO PREVENT SUCH OCCURRENCE OR SOLVE THE PROBLEM. OPENED TICKET WITH HONDA APRIL 2, 2017 CASE # 05919498 - NO RESPONSE AS OF TODAY JUNE 27, 2017. NOT SURE PREVALENCE, OBSERVED SOME COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

REAR WHEELS LOCK INTERMITTENTLY. EXCESSIVE REAR ROTOR WEAR, WITH NORMAL WEAR ON PADS. APPEARS AS IF PADS HAVE WORN OUT ALLOWING FOR GRINDING AGAINST ROTORS. HOWEVER, PADS EXHIBIT NORMAL WEAR. HONDA OFFERS NO EXPLANATION FOR CORROSION. FOR COMPARISON HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS OF REAR ROTOR AND FRONT ROTOR. REAR ROTORS EXHIBIT SIGNIFICANT WEAR/CORROSION WITH PAD LIFE AROUND 60%. THIS IS EQUAL ON BOTH REAR WHEELS OF THE VEHICLE. FRONT ROTORS HAVE NORMAL WEAR @70% PAD REMAINING. CALIFORNIA BASED VEHICLE, BUT EXPOSED TO SNOW AND WINTER DRIVING. REAR WHEELS LOCK ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS, AS IF REAR PARKING BRAKE IS BEING APPLIED. POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IN COLD WEATHER DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO ACCELERATE FOR A FEW MOMENTS. AFTER THE LIGHT WENT OUT, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE INFORMATION CENTER IN THE VEHICLE WOULD RANDOMLY FLICKER AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS SOFTWARE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,158.

SIR/MA'AM, I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS SOMEWHAT SAFETY PROBLEM THAT MANY CIVIC HAVE. HONDA CIVIC HAS A CENTER TOUCH SCREEN THAT CONTROLS RADIO, TEMPERATURE AND IMPORTANTLY SHOWS REAR VIEW CAMERA AND RIGHT SIDE CAMERA. TODAY THE CENTER SCREEN DIDN'T EVEN TURN ON AND WASN'T ABLE TO SEE AN OBJECT REAR AND UNDERNEATH OF MY CAR DUE TO THE SCREEN NOT TURNED ON. IT IS KNOWN ISSUE FOR CIVIC COMMUNITY. I WISH THAT NHTSA TAKE A LOOK INTO THIS ISSUES.

2016 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE PARKING BRAKES HAD A SOFTWARE UPDATE PERFORMED THEM TWICE AND THE COMPUTER U3000-49 WAS REPLACED. THE POWER WINDOWS ALSO FAILED. UPDATED 06/06/2017*JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, A SMALL TREE BRANCH FELL ONTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND IT BECAME SHATTERED. THE CONTACT HAD SMALL PIECES OF GLASS ON HER SKIN, BUT WAS UNINJURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,000.

THE CAR INCREASE AND DECREASE ACCELERATED BY ITSELF THAT IS DAGEROU. THAT HAPPENED EVERY DAY WHEN I DRIVE.

THIS CAR'S HORN REALLY CAN NOT BE HEARD BY ANOTHER DRIVER. I REALLY FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I CAN'T IMAGINE A COMPLAINT HAS NOT BEEN FILED. IT REALLY IS DANGEROUS.

ON MAY 09, 2017 I WAS REAR ENDED WHILE SITTING STILL BY A CAR TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT AND MY FACE WAS PROJECTED INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. DURING THE IMPACT MY SEATBELT DIDN'T SEEM TO ACTIVATE AND NOT ONE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. MY VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED YET BUT I WOULD GUESS IT TO BE TOTALED DUE TO THE FRONT AND REAR IMPACT DAMAGE. EVERYONE I'VE SPOKE TO INCLUDING THE POLICE OFFICER AND WRECKER SERVICE WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. I FEEL VERY LUCKY BUT DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE AND IT'S SAFETY FEATURES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE STEERING MOVED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING . THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AND HIT A BUMP THAT WAS COVERED WITH WATER DUE TO RAIN. DID NOT HIT THE FRONT BUMPER BUT HAD A SMALL DAMAGE IN THE UNDERCARRIAGE, WHICH CAUSED THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG TO DEPLOY AND SEVERELY INJURED THE DRIVER. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED UNDER CONDITIONS FOR WHICH THEY WERE NOT INTENDED TO DEPLOY ...UPDATED 10/19/17 *BF UPDATED 10/24/2017*JS

I PRESSED MY AUTOMATIC START KEY FROM THE WINDOW OF THE BUILDING , WHILE I WAS GETTING READY ,(WASHING MY FACE, BRUSHING TEETH) AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS LATER I HEARD THE SOUND OF THE ALARM , WHICH WOULD USUALLY TURN ON IF THERE IS A HIT OR IMPACT OR LOUD SOUND . WHEN I CAME DOWNSTAIRS, ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES LATER . I NOTICED THE FRONT WINDOW WAS SHATTERED , I FIGURED MAYBE ONE THE NEIGHBORS WAS PLAYING BALL AND HIT MY WINDOW, WHEN I OPENED MY DOOR I REALIZED THERE WAS A FIRE INSIDE COMING DIRECTLY FROM THE DASHBOARD, EVERYTHING WAS MELTED AND MY DASHBOARD WAS ALSO SUNK IN. I CHECKED IF THERE WAS AN OUTLET CONNECTED OR USB PORTS AND DID NOT FIND AN ANSWER. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO HELP AND ONLY ADVICE THAT WAS GIVEN WAS TO CONTACT MY INSURANCE , THEY ALSO ADDED THEY WOULD NOT BE TAKING CARE OF ANY DAMAGES IN THE VEHICLE AND THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AND ALSO DID NOT KNOW WHY, NOR WERE EVEN INTERESTED IN INVESTIGATING. THE CAR WAS IN COMPLETE PARK MODE, AND OFF OVERNIGHT. NO ONE DESERVES TO TAKE THEIR SIBLINGS TO SCHOOL AND INSTEAD BE WELCOMED BY A MALFUNCTIONING DEFECTIVE 2016 YEAR VEHICLE.

THE AC HAS WENT OUT ON TWO OCCASIONS. THE FIRST OCCASION WAS DUE TO THE SYSTEM NEEDING TO BE RECHARGED. THE SECOND BEING A HOSE WAS NOT CONNECTED CORRECTLY. THE BACK TWEETER SPEAKERS WENT OUT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. 3 AUDIO UPDATES NEEDED TO BE DONE. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. THERE WAS NO BRAKES OR POWER STEERING AT THIS TIME. DIFFERENT CODES STARTED LIGHTING UP THE DASH. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR STOPPED AND OFF THE ROAD INTO THE DITCH AREA. IT IS CURRENTLY AT HONDA.

HONDA USE SOY ON WIRES BECAUSE IS CHEAPER THAN PLASTIC ,BUT IT ATTRACT RATS AND RODENTS THAT LOVE TO CHEW ON IT .WITCH RESULT IN CAR CRASH AND EXPENSIVE REPAIRS .I HAVE A NEW 2016 HONDA CAR 6 MONTHS OLD WITCH I HAD TO PAY 1481 $ EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A 5 YEARS ENGINE WARRANTY. HONDA MAKES MONEY OUT OF THOSE REPAIR AN AVERAGE OF 100 CARS COME TO EVERY DEALERSHIP EVERY YEAR : HTTP://CTWATCHDOG.COM/FINANCE/RODENTS-DAMAGE-CARS-BY-CHEWING-ELECTRICAL-CONNECTIONS-TIPS-ON-HOW-TO-AVOID-COSTLY-REPAIRS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED OIL LEAKING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27.

JUST BOUGHT 11MONTHS, FOUND ENGINE AND EXHAUST PIPE OIL LEAKING, THERE IS A RISK FIRE, HONDA SERVICE PERSON SAID IT IS NOT A ISSUE, ONLY NEED TO CHANGE THE ENGINE CAP. THIS CAR ONLY 20000 - MPH, AND I JUST BOUGHT A NEW CAR. I LOST $9000. IS THERE ANY WAY THE GOVERNMENT CAN HELP ME. THANK YOU! ...UPDATED 04/27/17 *BF *AS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE SOY BASE WIRING HARNESS HAD BEEN EATEN THROUGH BY RODENTS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

WHEN REFUELING MY CIVIC THERE IS A 50/50 CHANCE IT WILL OVER FULE AND NOT STOP THE GAS PUMP. SOMETIMES GASOLINE WILL OVERFILL ENOUGH TO MAKE IT TO THE GROUND. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS TWICE, BOTH TIMES BEING TOLD HONDA IS AWARE AND INVESTIGATING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF SOMEONE WERE TO DISCARD A CIGARETTE, AND CATCH THAT GASOLINE THAT OVERFILLED AND SPILLED OUT OF THE CAR ON FIRE?

BREAKING SYSTEM RECALL NOT PERFORMED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP, EVEN WHEN ASKED AND TALKED ABOUT. ASKED SERVICE MEMBER AND THE GENERAL MANAGER, BOTH TOOK A "DO NOT CARE" APPROACH. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. THIS IS ROPER HONDA IN JOPLIN, MO.

BATTERY DIED IN NORMAL WEATHER CONDITION IN AUSTIN TX ON 2/20/17. EVEY ELECTRICAL OPERATION WAS DISABLED. BY JUMP STARTING THE CAR, THE BATTERY WAS TESTED AT AUTO PARTS SHOP AUTOZONE. THE AUSTZONE TECHNICIAN REPORTED THAT THE BATTERY WAS NOT HOLDING THE CHARGE.
