Service brakes, Aug 22, 2018
WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THEN RELEASED, IT SOMETIMES TAKE UP TO TWO OR THREE SECONDS TO BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE AFTERWARD, EVEN THOUGH I AM STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THIS IS UNNERVING WHEN ENTERING AN INTERSECTION (YIELDING) AND YOU FEEL YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO PROCEED, UNTIL THE CAR FAILS TO ACCELERATE. HONDA STATES IT IS A SAFETY FEATURE IN THE EVENT SOMETHING WERE TO ACCIDENTALLY DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR WHILE BRAKING. I FEEL OTHERWISE.

AN ERROR MESSAGE KEEPS COMING UP ON MY CENTER CONSOLE, WARNING OF AN "ELECTRIC BRAKING PROBLEM." THE RED BRAKE LIGHT TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT ALSO FLASHES. THIS ALWAYS HAS HAPPENED WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE ON. WHILE THIS MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED, I AM UNABLE TO MOVE THE CAR FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. I HAVE ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE, AND THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE OR FOUR TIMES OVER A PERIOD OF MONTHS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. I PURCHASED IT IN SEPTEMBER 2016 AS A NEW VEHICLE FROM A DEALERSHIP IN ALEXANDRIA, LOUISIANA. IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL ANNOUNCED THE MONTH AFTER, BUT I BELIEVE THAT RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED.

THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGES WHEN THERE ARE NO OBJECTS IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE SYSTEM HAS ENGAGED ERRONEOUSLY NUMEROUS TIMES, WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND AT HIGH SPEEDS (65-70 MPH), AND THE BRAKE ENGAGES ATTEMPTING TO BRING MY VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP (HARD BRAKE). SOMETIMES I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET IT TO DISENGAGE, BUT I HAVE HAD SEVERAL "CLOSE CALLS" WITH DRIVERS BEHIND ME NEARLY REAR-ENDING ME ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR UNEXPECTED BRAKED (HARD). ONE TIME, THE BRAKES ENGAGED ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO ONE AND NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME, AND I HAD TO PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER QUICKLY (TO AVOID THE DRIVER BEHIND ME REAR-ENDING ME) AND GOT A FLAT TIRE AS A RESULT. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE ISSUE, BUT THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT GET MY VEHICLE TO DEMONSTRATE/ENGAGE IN THE BEHAVIOR I WAS DESCRIBING, AND THEREFORE, SAID THEY COULD NOT FIX IT. I ALSO REPORTED IT TO HONDA WARRANTY OVER THE PHONE. THEY THANKED ME FOR REPORTING IT AND SUGGESTED I CONTACT A DEALERSHIP TO GET IT FIXED - THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT FIX IT.

RANDOMLY I RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING ERROR MESSAGE ON MY SCREEN WHEN STARTING MY CAR, "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM". THE ONLY WAY FOR ME TO REMOVE THE ERROR IS TO START WITH MY CAR IN PARK, AND MOVE FROM R, N, D, S, L, AND BACK UP TO PARK AGAIN. THEN I PRESS THE BREAK HOLD ON, THEN BREAK HOLD OFF, PARKING BREAK ON, THEN PARKING BREAK OFF, TURN OFF THE CAR, THEN TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND THE ERROR GOES AWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES SINCE I LEASED THE CAR IN 2016 AND HAPPENED THREE TIMES JUST IN THIS MONTH. ALWAYS HAPPENS RANDOMLY. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP A NUMBER OF TIMES AND LETTING THEM KNOW OF THE ISSUE THEY NOW RUN A FULL DIAGNOSTICS THAT MY WARRANTY IS OUT AND THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH A BAD CELL IN THE BATTERY. SO EITHER THERE IS A FAULT WITH THE ELECTRICAL BREAK SYSTEM OR THE BATTERIES IN THE 2016 HONDA CIVICS ARE BAD. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH WILL SHOW THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE.

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)

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.

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!

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.

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 BACK WHICH SEEMS DANGEROUS TO ME. WHAT'S TO SAY THE BRAKE WON'T FAIL AGAIN AND NEXT TIME THERE MAY BE SOMEONE BEHIND IT OR IN FRONT OF IT. *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
