Steering, Electrical system, Service brakes, Jul 21, 2017
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!
Electrical system, Jul 12, 2017
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.

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.

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.

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.

Air bags, May 11, 2017, crash
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.

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.

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?

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.
