Service brakes, hydraulic, antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip, wheel speed sensor/tone ringSep 5, 2007
ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR HOUSING USES AN O-RING SEAL TO PREVENT LEAKAGE TO OR FROM THE WHEEL BEARING. IF ASSEMBLED IMPROPERLY, THE O-RING MAY NOT SEAL PROPERLY ALLOWING WATER TO ENTER THE WHEEL BEARING AND EVENTUALLY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BEARING, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WHERE USE OF ROAD SALT IS PREVALENT. IF THE DRIVER CONTINUES TO DRIVE WITH THIS CONDITION IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE WHEEL BEARING TO BECOME LOOSE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE BEARING TO FAIL.
THIS COULD CAUSE A WHEEL TO FALL OFF OF THE VEHICLE, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE REAR ABS SENSORS AND WHEEL BEARINGS FOR DAMAGED PARTS AND REPLACE THEM FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 25, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009.

AFTER ABOUT A YEAR AFTER PURCHASING MY CAR, I NOTICED THE PAINT STARTED TO APPEAR RATHER DUSKY. A SHORT TIME LATER, MY PAINT STARTED TO PEEL! MY CAR WAS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD AT TIME OF PURCHASE- SO PEELING PAINT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT OWNERS FAULT.

NOW OUR TRUNK IS SMELLY, MOLDY AND DAMP. WE CANNOT PUT OUR GROCERIES, PURSE, SUITCASES, ETC INTO THE TRUNK OR ELSE THEY WILL GET WET. IT SMELLS SO BAD IN THE CABIN AREA THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO BREATHE AND YOU HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN WHICH IS DIFFICULT WITH MY ALLERGIES. THE THINGS WE KEPT IN THE TRUNK LIKE THE JACK ARE NOW RUSTED AND THE BAG WHERE I KEPT MY JUMPER CABLES IS MOLDY. DIFFICULT TO USE THE CAR NOW SINCE WE CANNOT PUT ANYTHING INTO IT SAFELY AND CANNOT BREATHE IN THE CABIN AREA. *TR

BEFORE I WENT TO SPEND $600+ ON A NEW PAINT JOB, I FOUND OUT ONLINE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS THAT HAVE COMPLAINED OF THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENING TO THEIR HONDA CIVICS. IF THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE QUALITY OF HONDA'S PAINT, WHICH IS WHAT MOST SOURCES ARE SAYING, THEY SHOULD FIX IT FOR FREE. IT'S A 2007, THIS IS NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. *TR

SHORTLY BEFORE THE VEHICLE WENT OUT OF THE MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY I BEGAN TO NOTICE ISSUES WITH THE PAINT JOB. THE PAINT BEGAN TO DEVELOP LARGE AREAS ON THE ROOF, HOOD, FENDERS, AND SEVERAL OTHER AREAS OF THE CAR THAT WERE EXTREMELY FADED WITH THE CLEAR COAT TOTALLY WEARING THROUGH. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEARLERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM AND THEY TOLD ME TO CALL BACK IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS WHEN A REGIONAL REP. WOULD BE AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR HIM TO EXAMINE. I CALLED BACK AND WAS ASKED IF I COULD BRING THE CAR DOWN THAT DAY, LUCKILY I WORK ONLY A FEW MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ABLE TO BRING THE CAR DOWN. WHEN I GOT THERE MY SERVICE ADVISOR TOOK THE CAR FOR THE "REGIONAL" GUY TO HAVE A LOOK. ABOUT 40 MINUTES LATER MY SERVICE ADVISOR CAME BACK TO THE SERVICE LOUNGE TO TELL ME THAT, ACCORDING TO THE "REGIONAL" GUY, WHO I NEVER MET, SAID THAT IT WAS QUOTE, "ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES" THAT CAUSED THE ISSUES WITH THE PAINT JOB AND SUGGESTED THAT KEEPING THE CAR OUT OF THE SUN ( IN FLORIDA !!!! ) WOULD HELP. IN AN EFFORT TO RETAIN ME AS A CUSTOMER, SINCE BOTH MYSELF AND MY WIFE HAVE BOUGHT HONDAS FROM THAT DEALERSHIP, THEY WOULD MAKE AN OFFER TO PAY FOR HALF OF THE PAINT JOB AND THAT THEY WOULD REPAINT AND MY HALF OF THE BILL WOULD ONLY BE $1200.00 !!!!! NEEDLESS TO SAY I TURNED THEIR OFFER DOWN AND WILL SIMPLY NEVER EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA NOR WILL ANYONE ELSE IN MY FAMILY !!!!!! *TR
