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.

I OWN A 2007 HONDA CIVIC SI (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) AND 1 OUT OF EVERY 5 TIMES I SHIFT INTO 3RD GEAR IT GRINDS AND DOES NOT ENGAGE PROPERLY. IN 4000 MILES IT HAS ALSO FALLEN OUT OF GEAR TWICE UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY SLOW AND I WILL BE DISTRACTED WHILE DRIVING AS IT IS QUITE UNEXPECTED ON A CAR WITH 10,000 MILES. I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR TO HONDA AND THEY SAID THIS WAS DUE TO EXCESSIVE CLUTCH WEAR CAUSED BY "DRIVING THE CAR TOO HARD". I DRIVE ABOUT 50 MILES A WEEK IN DC METRO AREA TRAFFIC SO THIS IS HARDLY THE CASE. MOST OWNERS OF THE SAME CAR AND TRANSMISSION ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM AND HONDA HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO REMEDY IT.

TIRE VIBRATION STARTED AT 5,000 MILES. DEALER ROTATED AND BALANCED TIRES AND SAID YOU ARE ALL SET. DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY NOTICED VIBRATION WAS STILL PRESENT. NEXT VISIT TOOK SERVICE FOR A RIDE AND THEY SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE BAD REAR WHEEL BEARING THAT THEY DID NOT STOCK. LEFT THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS AND WHEN I CAME PICK THE CAR UP THEY SAID WE CHANGED THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING? I SAID I WAS TOLD THEY WERE CHANGING THE REARS? THEY SAID NOPE THE RIGHT FRONT WAS THE PROBLEM. DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED IT WAS THE SAME AS BEFORE. CALLED THE DEALER AND ASKED IF ANYONE ACTUALLY TEST DROVE THE CAR AFTER REPAIR. MECHANIC SAID THE CAR WAS FINE? BROUGHT THE CAR BACK AGAIN AND TOOK THE SERVICE MANAGER FOR A RIDE HE SAID YES IT SOUNDS LIKE REAR WHEEL BEARINGS. LEFT THE CAR AGAIN FOR TWO DAYS AND WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR THEY SAID THEY CHANGED THE REAR WHEEL BEARINGS AND A RECALL THAT CAME IN FOR THE REAR ABS SENSOR AND SEALS. DRIVING HOME SAME VIBRATION. ALSO A RATTLE COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE DASH AREA WAS NEVER FIXED IN FOUR TRIES. I NOW HAVE 34,000 MILES AND THE TIRES ARE COMPLETELY WORN OUT AND THIS WOULD SUGGEST THAT THEIR IS A SEVERE SUSPENSION PROBLEMS WITH THE 2007 CIVIC LX. DEALER HAS NO CLUE.

THIS MAY LEAD TO A MOMENTARY LAPSE IN CONCENTRATION AND AT TIMES A SOMEWHAT LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLES DRIVEABILITY WHEN THIS OCCURS ABRUPTLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY.
