2016 Honda Civic complaints

TRUNK SPONTANEOUSLY OPENS. IT HASN'T HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER, CONTACTED HONDA'S HEADQUARTERS. THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE SO CANNOT FIX IT. THERE ARE OTHERS ON THE CIVIC ONLINE FORUM WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A SECURITY ISSUE WHERE I CANNOT KEEP ANYTHING IN MY TRUNK. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. ONE NIGHT AFTER I GOT HOME, I WENT BACK OUT TO MY CAR AND THE TRUNK WAS OPENED. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, I GO OUT TO MY CAR IN THE MORNING OR AFTER WORK AND MY TRUNK IS OPEN. I KEEP THE KEYS AS FAR AWAY FROM THE CAR AS I CAN, I HANG THEM UP, BUT THEM IN THE BEDROOM AND IT DOES NOT GOOD--SO IT IS NOT THE SENSITIVITY OF THE KEY. I ALSO NOTICED MY GAS TANK HATCH OPENS AFTER I FILL THE TANK. SEE THE ATTACHED CORRESPONDENCE TO HONDA DATED TODAY.

THERE ARE THREE ISSUES WITH THIS 2016 HONDA CIVIC. HOWEVER ONE OF THESE ISSUES MUST BE ADDRESSED "IMMEDIATELY". WHEN YOU GO TO PARK YOUR CAR,(HAVING IT IN A STATIONARY POSITION) YOU PUSH THE PUSH BUTTON TO TURN IT OFF. HOWEVER IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STILL IN DRIVE WHEN YOU TURN IT OFF, IT "TURNS OFF" AND GIVES YOU A WARNING TONE. BUT!!!! IF YOUR HARD OF HEARING, AND YOU DON'T HEAR THIS TONE, YOU GO TO GET OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE AND IT EITHER ROLLS BACKWARDS (KNOCKING YOU DOWN WITH THE DOOR) AS IT ROLLS AWAY FROM YOU (AND HOPEFULLY NOT OVER YOU), "OR" IT ROLLS FORWARD, RUNNING COMPLETELY AWAY FROM YOU. THERE IS NO SAFETY FEATURE, SUCH AS THE ACURA. THE ACURA AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS YOUR CARS POSITION SO IT DOESN'T ROLL AWAY FROM YOU OR OVER YOU... MY BOYFRIEND HAS BEEN HURT TWICE DUE TO THIS UNSAFE FEATURE. AND I MYSELF HAVE BEEN SURPRISED BY IT ONCE. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 5,000 MILES ON IT. QUESTION IS? HOW MANY MORE MILES WILL IT BE ABLE TO ACCUMULATE BEFORE KILLING ONE OF US, OR SOMEONE ELSE? IF THERE WAS A WAY FOR ME TO SEND YOU A VIDEO OF THIS I WOULD. BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD FROM MY PHONE.

MY WIFE GETS 'SICK' AFTER RIDING IN SAID CAR. WE SUSPECT THAT THE CAR IS EMITTING VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS (VOCS) TO WHICH SHE IS SENSITIVE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PHENOMENON SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR IN AUGUST 2016 (IT IS NOW FEBRUARY 2017).

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND A SMALL ROCK HIT MY WINDSHIELD AND CRACKED IT RIGHT WHERE THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS ATTACHED. THERE IS NO IMPACTED POINT IN THE GLASS JUST THE SPLINTERING OF THE GLASS. SAFELITE HAD TO MAKE A SMALL HOLE JUST TO DO THE REPAIR. IS THIS WINDSHIELD DEFECTIVE? IT HAPPEN TO MY SON'S GIRLFRIEND'S 2017 HONDA CIVIC AS WELL. WE BOTH JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE AS WELL. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE WINDSHIELD IS INFERIOR OR DEFECTIVE AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE IT LEAKS THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I LEASED THE VEHICLE AND HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE IT NOW POURS OUT AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN FUELING IS COMPLETE. I HAVE A VIDEO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. UPON CHANGING GEARS FROM PARK TO ANY OTHER GEAR, THE GEARS WERE SLOW TO CHANGE OVER. THE VEHICLE JERKED AND LATER ACCELERATED TO CHANGE GEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER MORE THAN THREE TIMES, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE REPLICATED AND DIAGNOSED. A SERVICE CENTER MANAGER INDICATED THAT THE CONDITION WAS EXPERIENCED MORE THAN TWICE FROM A TEST DRIVE, BUT PROVIDED NO RECOMMENDED SOLUTION. THE DEALER KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR WEEKS. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT PROVIDE THE DEALER WITH A REMEDY. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V574000 (POWER TRAIN). THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON CITY STREETS THE (BRAKE HOLD) LIGHT TURNS ON THEN IT BRAKES THE VEHICLE ON ITS OWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND TURNS ON THE (HOLD) LIGHT . IN ORDER TO CONTINUE DRIVING I NEED TO RESTART THE ENGINE BACK ON. THIS HAS 3 TIMES ALREADY. *TR

IF YOU HAVE TO BRAKE SUDDENLY, VEHICLE WILL NOT REACCELERATE WHEN PRESSING ACCELERATOR. YOU HAVE TO PUMP ACCELERATOR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT STARTS WORKING PROPERLY AGAIN AND VEHICLE RESUMES ACCELERATION. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME SEVERAL ACCIDENTS ALREADY. VERY DANGEROUS! ESPECIALLY FOR AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER. ALSO, SEATBELT LOCKS UP TIGHTLY AND YOU CANNOT MOVE UPON SUDDEN BRAKING. YOU HAVE TO PLAY WITH IT FOR A WHILE BEFORE IT LOOSENS UP. THIS IS ALSO DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT LOOK AROUND TO SEE YOUR SURROUNDINGS.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED POSTAL MAIL ABOUT A RECALL PENDING ON MY VEHICLE THAT WAS TO BE COMPLETED IN FALL 2016. IT IS NOW JANUARY/WINTER 2017 AND THERE HAS BEEN NO UPDATE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING MY CAR WHEN IT HAS A POTENTIAL GRENADE EMBEDDED IN THE STEERING WHEEL IN FRONT OF MY FACE AND CHEST. *TR

BRAND NEW HONDA CIVIC SEDAN TOURING HAS HAD NAVIGATION SYSTEM/GPS PROBLEMS FROM DAY TWO: - DOES NOT ACQUIRE SATELLITE DATA / DOES NOT CONNECT TO SATELLITE - NAVIGATION SYSTEM SHOWING THE CAR LOCATION COMPLETELY WRONG, SOMETIMES BY A MILE - NAVIGATION SYSTEM REBOOTING ITSELF WHILE DRIVING - CAR SYMBOL IS WIGGLING ALL OVER THE MAP WHILE DRIVING THIS HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME CAR IS DRIVEN, ON A TWO-LANE STREET OR ON A HIGHWAY, DAY OR NIGHT. MORE THAN 10 INSTANCES CAUGHT ON VIDEO AND PICTURES. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN IT ENDANGERED CAR PASSENGERS' SAFETY BY SHOWING WRONG INFORMATION AND GIVING WRONG DIRECTIONS IN UNFAMILIAR SURROUNDINGS WHERE GPS/NAVIGATION SYSTEM WERE NEEDED. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK TO THE SELLING DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES FOR REPAIR: FIRST TIME A NAVIGATION SOFTWARE "RESET" WAS PERFORMED, SECOND TIME WAS KEPT FOR 9 DAYS AND THE HMI HEAD WAS REPLACED, THIRD TIME WAS KEPT FOR 6 DAYS AND THE ANTENNA WAS REPLACED. IT CONTINUES TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. AFTER MORE THAN 21 DAYS OF DRAGGING THEIR FEET THE SELLING DEALERSHIP HAS AGREED TO LOOK AT THE CAR AGAIN, MONDAY JAN. 16TH. THE CAR RIGHT NOW HAS LESS THAN 4,500 MILES.

2016 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BRAKE SYSTEM AND SOFTWARE FAILURES FOUR DAYS AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE. *SMD

A " CHECK AIRBAG SYSTEM" MESSAGE AS I AM DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE MESSAGE OCCURS AFTER ABOUT 2 MINUTES. *TR

STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS STOPPED WORKING.

THE HONDA CIVIC WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SET WHEN IT WAS PARKED. THE VEHICLE HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. A FEW HOURS LATER THE CAR ALARM WAS GOING OFF AND WHEN I WENT TO LOOK TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON I DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR HAD ROLLED DOWN THE DRIVE AND INTO A TELEPHONE POLE. THE POLICE IN MY JURISDICTION DO NOT TAKE ACCIDENT REPORTS FOR ACCIDENTS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY THEREFORE A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT TAKEN. AFTER THE INCIDENT I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A ACTIVE RECALL INVOLVING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR ON OCTOBER 8, 2016 I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A "DO NOT SELL" NOTE IN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM DUE TO THE RECALL. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD DO THE DOWNLOAD WHILE WE DID THE PAPERWORK. AFTER THIS INCIDENT INVOLVING THE WRECK THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER WHO CHECKED THE DOWNLOAD AND CONFIRMED THAT THE DOWNLOAD WAS UP TO DATE. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER TWO DAYS LATER TO HAVE THE BRAKE SYSTEM INSPECTED WHICH THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WERE NO CODES FOUND IN THE SYSTEM. THIS WAS DONE AT THE ADVICE OF HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE. HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE CONTACTED ME TODAY AND STATED THAT AT THIS TIME THEY RECOMMEND PROCEEDING WITH AN INSURANCE CLAIM. I STATED THAT I THOUGHT THAT SINCE THERE WAS AN ACTIVE RECALL AND THE RECALL HAD BEEN PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE STILL FAILED THAT THEY WOULD WANT TO TAKE THE CAR TO LOOK AT. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD LOOK AT THE DEALER REPORTS AND IF THEY FOUND SOMETHING THEY WOULD CONTACT ME

I AM STILL HAVING BRAKE SYSTEM ISSUES AND NOT ALLOWING ME TO GEAR AND DRIVE! SINCE LETTER FOR RECALL IN NOVEMBER, WHICH ALREADY SET APPOINTMENT WITH DEALERSHIP TO REPROGRAM OR REBOOT SYSTEM THEY STATED WOULD TAKE CARE OF,I HAVE BEEN BACK TWICE AFTER THAT. I ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE WARNING EXCLAMATION LIGHT FLASHING AND WAS TOLD ALL'S FINE THE NEW CARS ARE SENSITIVE WHEN TAKE. MY BLUETOOTH CONNECT ACTS UP ALL TIME WHERE NOT EVEN BEING ABLE TO USE AMENITIES PAYING FOR WITH CAR.I'M PISSED BECAUSE NOW OUTSIDE MOVIE THEATER WITH KIDS AND STUCK AGAIN BREAK LOCKED. BEYOND A LITTLE INCONVENIENCE NOW. I HAVE NEVER HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE WITH HONDA UNTIL GOT THIS 2016 HONDA CIVIC *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE FREEWAY AT 70MPH WHEN SUDDENLY ALL THE INDICATORS WENT BERSERK WITH 6 DIFFERENT PROBLEMS APPEARING ALL AT THE SAME TIME. I WENT FROM 70 TO 40MPH WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING. I WENT TO THE SHOULDER TO STOP AND THESE PROBLEMS APPEARED: POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS), VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA), HILL START ASSIST, EMISSIONS SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM AND BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM. IT SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME COZ THE CARS BEHIND ME STARTED HONKING AT BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN REDUCED SPEED. IT COULD'VE COST ME MY LIFE! IT WAS ONLY AT 1195MILES WHEN THAT HAPPENED AND DID NOTHING THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE DEFECTS. I AM ON A THREE YEAR LEASE AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN LESS THAN 2MONTHS SINCE I HAD THE CAR. I DON'T WANT THAT CAR ANYMORE SO IF YOU CANT GIVE ME ANOTHER ONE (WITHOUT ADDITIONAL COSTS), THEN I WOULD WANT A FULL REFUND AND CANCEL MY LEASE. *TR

DRIVING INTO A SMALL TOWN AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT WENT OFF INSIDE THE CAR. THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. NO TRAFFIC WAS AROUND. NOTHING HIT THE ROOF. ONLY A SMALL AMOUNT OF GLASS FELL INTO THE CAR. IT HAD BLOWN OUTWARD LEAVING A HOLE IN THE MIDDLE WITH THE EDGES STICKING UP. DROVE DIRECTLY TO DEALERSHIP ABOUT 15 MINUTES AWAY WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW 6 MONTHS EARLIER. THEY SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THAT OCCURRING AND IT WAS A INSURANCE CLAIM AND NOT HONDAS RESPONSIBILITY SINCE WE COULDN'T PROVE IT WASN'T A ROCK. NOTHING HIT THE CAR AND THE GLASS BLEW OUT WHICH SCRATCHED THE PAINT ON THE TRUNK LID. *TR

CAR ALLOWED ITSELF TO BE TURNED OFF WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. UPON LEAVING CAR IT ROLLED DOWN INCLINE INTO ANOTHER CAR. MY HUSBANDS HONDA (2011 CRV) DOES NOT ALLOW THE CAR TO TURNED OFF IN DRIVE NOR DOES IT ALLOW THE KEY TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHILE STILL IN GEAR/DRIVE. *TR

OUR 2016 HONDA CIVIC TOURING CAR EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM FROM TIME TO TIME WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY WHEN OPERATING UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP IN SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA CALLED RIGHT HONDA. THEY TOOK THE CAR TWICE TO HELP FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM. NEVERTHELESS, RIGHT HONDA DROVE THE CAR AROUND 81 MILES AN HOUR. WE HAVE A GPS TRACKING DEVICE ON THE CAR THAT ALERTS US WHEN SOMEONE IS DRIVING UNPROFESSIONAL. THE RIGHT HONDA WAS SHOWN AND ASKED WHY THEY DROVE OUR CAR SO FAST AT AN UNPROFESSIONAL SPEED ON A PUBLIC STREET IN ARIZONA. THE SERVICE MANAGER JUST TOLD ME IT WAS FOR TESTING PURPOSES, TO GET THE CAR TO REACT. WE TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL TO DRIVE OUR CAR AT SUCH HIGH SPEEDS AND THEY ADDED THAT IF WE DO NOT LIKE IT WE CAN TAKE OUR CAR SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE FUTURE. WE ALSO LET HONDA AMERICA KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY JUST TOLD US THAT THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RIGHT HONDA?S ACTIONS FOR THEIR UNPROFESSIONAL ACTIONS. THE GOOD NOTE IS THAT WE THINK RIGHT HONDA MIGHT HAVE FINALLY FIXED THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEMS WE WERE HAVING, WHEN OUR 2016 HONDA CIVIC TOURING CAR WOULD STOP BY ITSELF FROM TIME TO TIME WITHOUT AN OBJECT IN FRONT OF OUR CAR. BUT DO NOT LIKE HOW HONDA AMERICA AND RIGHT HONDA DEALERSHIP HANDLED THE SITUATION. FEEL THEY NEED A LOT OF HELP IN THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CATEGORY. INCLUDING, NO DEALERSHIP SHOULD DRIVE ANYONE?S CAR CRIMINALLY EVER. *TR

FOLLOWING MY WIFE AFTER A RECALL ON HER CAR, IT BEGAN TO RAIN LIGHTLY. KNOWING WE WERE ENTERING A 75MPH TURNPIKE, I PHONED HER TO ADVISE HER TO TURN ON HER LIGHTS. SHE DID. AT THE STOP LIGHT BEFORE GETTING ON THE TURNPIKE, ALL I COULD SEE WERE 2 TINY LED BULB TYPES ON BOTH SIDES. AS SHE BEGAN TO REACH SPEED, SHE GOT 10-15 CAR LENGTHS AHEAD OF ME. WE KNEW THE FACTORY SPOILER CAUSES A VORTEX BEHIND HER CAR AS WE WIPE OFF BLACK POWDER THAT BUILDS ON THE BACK OF HER CAR EACH DAY WHEN SHE COMES HOME FROM WORK. I'VE NEVER DRIVEN BEHIND HER LET ALONE IN THE RAIN. WITH THE VORTEX CREATING A BOILING SPRAY, AND THE TINY LED BULBS, I COULD NOT SEE HER AT ALL. JUST A SPRAY. NO LIGHTS. AT OUR EXIT CLOSE TO HOME, AS SHE TOOK OFF, I COULD NOT SEE HER TAIL LIGHTS EVEN 5 CAR LENGTHS BACK. IT WAS DAY TIME I FORGOT TO MENTION BUT CLOUDY AND AS STATED, LIGHT RAIN. I COULD SEE HER BRAKE AS THE BRAKE LIGHTS USE A COMMON BULB. AGAIN, WITH THE LIGHTS IN THE ON POSITION, THE ONLY TIME I SAW HER TAIL LIGHT WAS IN THE GARAGE. THE VEHICLE HAS TWO ISSUES. THE SPOILERS CREATE A SPRAY OF WATER REDUCING VISIBILITY OF THE BACKBOF HER CAR IN THE RAIN OR FOG TO ZERO. HONDA EVEN SHOWS PHOTOS WITH THEIR LIGHTS ON. TINY ANGLED LED'S POINTING UP AND IN. AND NOT NEARLY BRIGHT ENOUGH TO BE SEEN IN RAIN. HEAVY RAIN OR DENSE FOG, COULD BE CATASTROPHIC. MY WIFE DRIVES I-40 & I-44 TO AND FROM WORK DAILY. 13 MILES. SHE'S HAD THE CAR JUST A FEW MONTHS. I AM CONCERNED EACH MORNING. SHE CURRENTLY LEAVES WHEN IT'S DARK. I'M

I FILED JUST MOMENTS AGO BUT ENTERED THE WRONG PHOTOS. THESE ARE MORE CLEAR. THE LIGHTS WERE ON THE ENTIRE TIME. THEY JUST DON'T SHOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE PARKING BRAKE APPLIED, IT ROLLED AWAY AND CRASHED INTO A HANDICAP PARKING POLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE ELECTRICAL CONTROL UNIT FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V725000 (PARKING BRAKE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,050. UPDATED 01/25/17*LJ UPDATED 7/16/18*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE CRASH. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT HAS FALLEN OFF. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TO FIX IT FOUR TIMES AND NOW SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AT HONDA AND THERE IS NO FIX. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THERE IS NO WAY TO SEE OUT THE BACK WINDOW IN THE DARK OR WHEN CONDENSATION IS ON THE WINDOW, IF THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED. ALL YOU SEE IS A REFLECTION OF THE BRAKE LIGHT. WITHOUT THE BACKUP CAMERA, THE CAR WOULD NOT BE DRIVABLE. THIS OCCURS WHEN STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. IT

TAKATA RECALL HEY, MY CAR HONDA CIVIC COUPE BROKE DOWN IN SEPTEMBER REASON WAS TIRE AND BRAKE I THINK. I WAS DRIVING IN REGULAR SPEED AND MY TIRE BLOWOFF AND BRAKE DIDN'T WORK IN SAME TIME. I RUN OVER THE HILL AND BROKE MY BOTH EXCEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED INTERMITTENTLY ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE, POWER STEERING, AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT SOMETHING UNDER THE VEHICLE WAS CHEWING THE WIRES AND THEY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT THAT'S ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR WINDOW (I HAVE THE COUPE) HAS A COVER WHICH KEEPS THE LIGHT DIRECTED OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND ATTACHES TO THE WINDOW. THE GLUE HOLDING IT TO THE WINDOW ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH, SO THE COVER HANGS DOWN, BLOCKING SOME OF THE REAR WINDOW, REDUCING VISIBILITY. ALSO, AT NIGHT THE LIGHT ITSELF WASHES OUT THE REAR WINDOW, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT THE BACK AT ALL. THIS PROBLEM IS AFFECTING 100% OF THE 2016 COUPES THAT HAVE EVER BEEN OUT ON A WARM DAY (HEAT MELTS THE GLUE), AND HONDA ISN'T FIXING IT. THEY'VE BEEN STRINGING US ALONG FOR 5 MONTHS NOW, PROMISING A FIX IN "A MONTH" OR "A COUPLE WEEKS", WITH NO RESOLUTION. LAST I HEARD, THEY SAID ON NOVEMBER 7TH THAT IT WOULD BE RELEASED IN 8-12 WEEKS. IT FEELS LIKE THEIR PLAN IS TO JUST KEEP THIS UP UNTIL PEOPLE SUPER GLUE THE CASING TO THE WINDOW THEMSELVES OR DECIDE BADGERING HONDA ABOUT IT ISN'T WORTH IT ANYMORE. PLEASE MAKE THEM FIX THEIR PROBLEM.

THE COVER FOR THE REVERSE LIGHT, REAR WINDOW, OF THE 2016 CIVIC HAS DROPPED AND AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TRYING TO GET AMERICAN HONDA TO CORRECT, STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE COVER CAN'T BE REMOVED AS THE REVERSE LIGHT IS TOO BRIGHT AND MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT THE REAR WINDOW AT NIGHT. DURING THE DAY, THE COVER OBSCURES OBJECTS/CARS IN THE REAR VIEW WINDOW.

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER (INSIDE TOP CENTER OF REAR WINDOW) ON MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC COUPE IS LOOSE/DROOPING/FALLING OFF ON THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE WITH RIGHT-REAR OF COVER SEPARATED BY ABOUT 1/4" GAP FROM INSIDE OF REAR WINDOW. THIS CONDITION HAS EXISTED SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2016. THIS ALLOWS DISTRACTING LIGHT LEAK WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND IMPAIRS VISIBILITY THROUGH THE REAR WINDOW. BASED UPON INFORMATION ONLINE HONDA DOES NOT YET HAVE A FIX FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN WIDELY REPORTED OCCURRING ON THE 2016 CIVIC COUPES SINCE JUNE 2016..

THE HOUSING THAT SURROUNDS THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IS NOT FULLY AFFIXED TO THE REAR INTERIOR WINDOW. THE HOUSING JUST BOUCES UP AND DOWN AND RED LIGHT FLOODS THE BACK WINDOW WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. THIS SITUATION MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF THE BACK WINDOW AT NIGHT.

REPEATED ISSUES WITH FAULTY DASHBOARD ELECTRONIC WARNING SYSTEM WHICH ALERTS BRAKE FAILURE AND EXPERIENCE WITH ACCELERATION PROBLEM AND OTHER RELATED ISSUES. THESE ISSUES OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS.

COVER FOR CENTER BRAKE LIGHT KEEPS COMING LOOSE, OBSCURING REAR WINDOW AND FLOODING INTERIOR WITH RED LIGHT WHEN BRAKE IS APPLIED AT NIGHT. KNOWN ISSUE, BUT DEALERS DO NOT HAVE GUIDANCE ON HOW TO PERMANENTLY FIX IT.

THE HIGH-MOUNTED BRAKE LIGHT COVER, MOUNTED ON THE REAR WINDOW, HAS DETACHED ITSELF FROM THE WINDOW. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A LOSS OF VISIBILITY DUE TO THE PLASTIC COVER BLOCKING IMPORTANT VISUAL INFORMATION FROM OUTSIDE THE CAR. IN ADDITION, RED LIGHT FROM THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATES THE REAR WINDOW, MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUTSIDE AT NIGHT. I REPORT THIS TO THE DEALER (ROBERTS HONDA IN DOWNINGTOWN, PA) WHO SAID THAT "ALL CIVIC COUPES HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM, HONDA AMERICA IS AWARE, BUT HAS NOT PROVIDED A FIX"

THE ELECTRIC EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILED. THE CAR WAS PARKED, IGNITION TURNED OFF, EMERGENCY BRAKE APPLIED, AND LEFT THE VEHICLE. WHEN I RETURNED, THE CAR HAD ROLLED BACKWARDS DOWN A ROAD AND SLAMMED INTO ANOTHER PARKED CAR CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. NO INJURIES RELATED TO THE ACCIDENT. POLICE REPORT IS NOT AVAILABLE YET. WE FOUND ABOUT THE RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED IN MID-OCTOBER BUT WE HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED/CONTACTED YET.

BRAND NEW 2016 HONDA CIVIC - MY FAMILY HAS PURCHASED 2 OF THESE VEHICLES SAME EXACT EX-L MODEL IN THE LAST MONTH JUST DIFFERENT COLORS. BOTH TPMS SENSOR LIGHTS HAVE COME ON WITHIN THE FIRST FEW HUNDRED MILES OF DRIVING THE CARS! *TR

ME AN MY BOYFRIEND ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT WHEN THE ENGINE OF OUR VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OVER AT THE LAST SECOND WHEN THE ENGINE ACTUALLY STOPPED. WE WERE STILL IN A DANGEROUS AREA AND I COULDN'T EVEN DESCRIBE TO AAA WHERE WERE. FORTUNATELY A TOW TRUCK DRIVER WAS PASSING BY AND SAW US ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOPPED TO HELP US. JUST TO GIVE SOME BACK STORY MY BOYFRIEND WAS READING AN ARTICLE ABOUT A RECALL FOR THE PISTON RING/CLIP AFFECTING THE ENGINE ON THE 2016 HONDA CIVICS AND WE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO OUR DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE CAR INSPECTED. WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. LATER ON WARNING LIGHTS IN THE CAR STARTED TO TURN ON INCLUDED THE BRAKE AND ENGINE LIGHT. WE HAD A WORKER AT AUTOZONE CHECK THE LIGHTS WITH ONE OF THEIR TOOLS AND WERE TOLD THE LIGHTS MAY HAVE BEEN TURNED OFF IN THE INITIAL INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO OUR PURCHASE. WE WENT BACK TWICE SPEAKING TO THE MANAGER AND SERVICE TEAM AND WERE TURNED AWAY WITH A LIST OF ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON IN THE VEHICLE WITH NO REMEDY TO FIX ANY OF THE ISSUES. WHEN WE BROUGHT UP THE RECALL AGAIN WE WERE TOLD OUR CAR DID NOT FALL UNDER IT. BECAUSE OF THEIR NEGLIGENCE I AND MY BOYFRIEND COULD AVE LOST OUR LIVES IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY. WE BOUGHT THE CAR MAY 2016 AND THE RECALL WAS ISSUED FEBRUARY 2016 AND WAS STILL OPEN AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE CONSIDERING THE PARTS TO FIX THE PI

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE STATIONARY, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT RESTRAIN THE CONTACT AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STRUCK THE WINDSHIELD AND RECEIVED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CONTACT WAS UNDERGOING PHYSICAL THERAPY. THE OTHER DRIVER WAS NOT INJURED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. HONDA WOULD NOT REPLACE THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 13,000.

CAR STALLS; WITH NO WARNING JUST TURNS OFF THIS HAPPENS WITH NO RHYME OR REASON AND HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES MANY OF WHICH IS NOT DOCUMENTED BECAUSE IT WAS NOT TAKEN INTO A DEALER; I COULD NOT AFFORD A TOW. I HAVE NOW SIGNED UP FOR AAA AND HAD IT TOWED INTO A DEALER THIS LAST OCCURRENCE. DOCUMENTED WITH DEALERSHIPS ON 5/12/16 CAR HAD 396 MILES ON IT; 6/3/16 CAR HAD 2722 MILES ON IT; 10/13/16 CAR HAD 10745 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS THE TIME THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD IT HAPPEN TO THEM NINE TIMES BEFORE IT SUDDENLY STOPPED HAPPENING. HAPPENED GOING 75 MPH GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. HAPPENS WHEN PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT. HAPPENS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET. HAVE CONTACTED HONDA CORP (CASE#05150093) AND ASKED FOR HELP BUT HAVE NOT HAD A RESOLUTION. THE HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS RECREATED THE ISSUE (COPY OF SERVICE TICKET ATTACHED) THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN SO THEY TOLD MY SON TO COME GET IT AND DRIVE IT UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN THEN CALL THEM TO TOW IT BACK IN. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE AND HE COULD LOSE HIS LIFE AND POTENTIALLY MANY OTHERS. PLEASE HELP. I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY SON OR ANY OTHER LIFE BE TAKEN BECAUSE HONDA WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. *TR

ITS BEEN 4 MONTHS NOW THAT THE 3RD LIGHT BRAKE IN MY CAR STILL PENDING RESOLUTION. IT BLOCKS MY REAR VIEW AS IT IS HANGING 3 INCHES DOWN WITH THIS BLACK SQUARE 5 X 5 X 5 TO COVER TH LIGHT. I CAN'T DRIVER THIS CAR IN THE NIGHT BECAUSE ITS DANGEROUS TO DRIVER IT DUE TO THE SIZE OF THE BOX. I AM STILL WAITING FOR FOR HONDA TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM

1. VEHICLE ABOUT 10 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET SUDDENLY STOPPED AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON. TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP, FOUND ABS MODULATOR LEAKING. 2. ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER CAR WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT WOULD NOT START. TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS FAULTY.

UPON STARTUP VSA, TPMS, CMBS, BRAKE WARNING ILLUMINATED AT 4400 MILES. POWER STEERING FAILED. DELIVERED TO DEALER FOR REPAIR.

REAR HIGH MOUNT BRAKE LIGHT COMING OFF WINDSHIELD THE EVENING I TOOK DELIVERY OF VEHICLE. TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER WHERE THEY TRIED TO REATTACH IT. THE REPAIR LASTED A DAY. THEY ORDERED A NEW ASSEMBLY AND TRIED TO ATTACH IT. THE ASSEMBLY WAS UNGLUED BEFORE I GOT HOME. IT HAS NOT YET COME FULLY OFF, BUT IT IS A DISTRACTION AND, WHEN USING THE BRAKES AT NIGHT, OBSCURES MY VISION THROUGH THE REAR WINDSHIELD. DEALER SAID THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AN ARE WAITING ON HONDA OF AMERICA TO COME UP WITH A REPAIR. VERY POOR ENGINEERING ON HONDA'S PART AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO IF/WHEN THE THING COMES FULLY OFF. I WAS DRIVING HOME THE FIRST TIME I TOOK NOTICE OF THE PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN I NOTICED IT THE SECOND TIME. I DON'T THINK MOVEMENT WAS A FACTOR, JUST POOR DESIGN AND ADHESION. *TR

I PARKED MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC IN MY GARAGE AND SET THE PARKING BRAKE. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WALKED INTO THE HOUSE. THE VEHICLE MUST HAVE ROLLED OUT OF THE GARAGE (GARAGE SURFACE IS RATHER FLAT, PROBABLY WHY I DIDN'T SEE THIS HAPPEN) DOWN MY SLOPED DRIVEWAY ENDED UP IN THE NEIGHBORS YARD. VEHICLE SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE EXHAUST, BUMPER, UNDERSIDE OF TRUNK AND RIGHT REAR TIRE. THANK GOODNESS THAT NOBODY WAS INJURED. AT THE TIME I THOUGHT MAYBE I MADE A MISTAKE BUT NOW THAT HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE PARKING BRAKE I UNDERSTAND WHAT REALLY HAPPENED. I DID SET THE PARKING BRAKE BUT IT APPEARS THAT IT DID NOT EVER SET. I HAVE SINCE SEEN THIS HAPPEN AGAIN WHEN I HAVE PARKED ON OTHER SOMEWHAT FLAT SURFACES AND RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE AND IT APPEARS AS THOUGH IT HAD MOVED A SMALL AMOUNT. WITH THE RELEASE OF DETAILS IN THE SAFETY RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V725000 ) I NOW UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

TODAY I PURCHASED A NEW (DEMO/4,900+ MILES) 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE SALESMAN WAS DEMONSTRATING HOW TO USE THE PHONE/CONNECTIVITY FEATURES IT WAS DISCOVERED THE PHONE SYSTEM WAS MALFUNCTIONING. I WAS ADVISED TO TRY IT AGAIN WHEN I DROVE OFF THE LOT TO TAKE MY BRAND NEW CAR HOME AND IT MAY WORK WHEN I GOT AWAY FROM THE LOT. IT DID NOT. THE PHONE IS NON WORKING AND THE VOICE RECOGNITION IS USELESS.

TPMS LIGHT CAME ON. ONLY 230 MILES ON VEHICLE. TIRE PRESSURE 29.5 MEASURED COLD ON CAR

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER, ON REAR WINDOW, KEEPS FALLING DOWN ALLOWING A RED GLARE AT NIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED.

THE RADIO OR SAID INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK AS ADVERTISED, NOT ALLOWING YOU TO USE YOUR GOOGLE NAVIGATION OR BLUETOOTH WHICH ARE 2 BIG SAFETY CONCERNS, THE INTERNET IS FLOODED WITH COMPLAINTS AND ALL SAY HONDA IS IGNORING THE PROBLEM AND REFUSING A FIX.

DRIVING ON I-5. ALL OF THE SUDDEN, I HEARD A POP AND THE GLASS FROM MY SUNROOF WAS FALLING ON ME. I DID NOT SEE ANY ROCKS OR OBJECTS HIT MY VEHICLE. TRAFFIC WAS MOVING FAIRLY SLOW. NO SEMI TRUCKS IN FRONT OF ME. DEALERSHIP SAID A ROCK MUST OF HIT MY SUNROOF BUT NOTHING FOUND.

DRIVING THE CAR HOME AT 7 PM AND HEARD A LOUD POP NOISE LIKE A GUNSHOT. NO OTHER VEHICLES IN SITE AND ON A ROAD WHERE THERE ARE NO HOMES JUST OPEN FIELDS. PULLED OVER TO FIND THE SUNROOF HAD A HUGE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT AND THE REST OF THE GLASS THAT WAS STILL TACT WAS IN TINY PIECES LIKE AND LOOKED LIKE A SPIDER WEB. THE GLASS WAS PROTRUDING UPWARD LIKE IT HAD PRESSURE FROM THE INSIDE. HAD THE THE VISOR FOR THE SUNROOF BEEN OPEN IN THE CAR WHILE IT WAS BEING DRIVEN THIS GLASS WOULD HAVE FALLEN DIRECTLY INTO OUR EYES POSSIBLY CAUSING VISION PROBLEMS. I CALLED HONDA CARE AND THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR BECAUSE THEY SAID BY THE TIME THE CAR GOT TO THE DEALER SHIP TO BE REPAIRED IT HAD VERY LITTLE GLASS LEFT IN IT. THIS CAR HAS UNDER 2500 MILES ON IT AND I HAVE NOT EVEN PAID THE FIRST NOTE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN WAS INAUDIBLE WHEN ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000. UPDATED 01/11/2017*CT
