Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017 Honda Civic Sedan and Coupe vehicles. The right halfshaft may have been improperly heat treated, reducing its strength.

THE FIRST TIME I HAD TO TURN ON MY AC FOR THE SUMMER 2020 SEASON ON MY 2017 HONDA CIVIC I NOTICED THAT IT WAS BLOWING HOT AIR. I TOOK MY CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY IDENTIFIED NOT ONLY WAS MY A/C CONDENSER LEAKING FREON BUT ALSO MY A/C COMPRESSOR IS LEAKING FREON. BOTH PARTS MUST BE REPLACED. IN AUGUST 2019 , HONDA ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THE A/C CONDENSER AS THEY DISCOVERED IT WAS MANUFACTURED TO STANDARDS AND WITH THE SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THE A/C CONDENSER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY HAS BEEN ISSUED. HOWEVER, THE A/C COMPRESS IS NOT UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. MY CAR IS OUT OF THE MANUFACTURE WARRANTY (3 YEARS/36,000 MILES) PERIOD BY 4,000 MILES - NOT YEARS. I LIVE IN THE MID-WEST WHERE I DON'T NEED TO USE MY CAR'S A/C OFTEN SO I HAVEN'T USED MY A/C SINCE FALL 2019 WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. SEARCHING ONLINE - THERE ARE VEHICLE OWNER COMPLAINTS ON THE A/C UNITS BECOMING DEFECTIVE DURING AND AFTER WARRANTY PERIOD OF 2016, 2017 AND 2018 HONDA CIVIC'S. THE IN ORDER TO REPAIR THE A/C COMPRESSOR, THE ESTIMATED COST OF REPAIR IS $1,200. THE DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT THE PARTS ARE CURRENTLY OUT OF STOCK AND THAT THEY HAVE SEEN A NUMBER OF CIVIC'S WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. HOW IRONIC IS IT THAT WITHIN THREE YEARS (NOT FULL THREE YEARS) MY VEHICLE'S A/C CONDENSER AND COMPRESSOR NEED TO BE REPLACED. HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED FAULT ON ONE PART BUT OTHER THE SECOND. THESE PARTS DO NOT BECOME DEFECTIVE THIS EARLY IN THE LIFE OF A VEHICLE. *TR

THE HONDA SENSING BRAKE SYSTEM SEEMS TO MORE ANNOYING THAN HELPFUL. EVEN ADJUSTING THE DIFFERENT SENSOR LENGTHS ISN'T HELPING. OFTEN, THE CAR STARTS TO BRAKE WHEN IT IS NOT NEEDED. A FEW DAYS AGO A CAR IN FRONT OF ME DECIDED TO MAKE A U-TURN AT A LEFT TURN ARROW THAT SAID NO U-TURNS. MY CAR DECIDED TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES BECAUSE THEY WERE A LITTLE IN THE WAY. IT GETS WORSE: I COULD NOT OVERRIDE THE BRAKES WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS PETAL TO MOVE FORWARD AFTER THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF THE WAY. I WAS STUCK IN PLACE FOR LONGER THAN NECESSARY. THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME! I DON'T MIND IF THE SENSING SYSTEM NOTIFIES ME WITH BEEPS, BELLS, AND WHISTLES. JUST DON'T BRAKE FOR ME! *TR

I PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CIVIC IN NOVEMBER 2017. IN AUGUST 2018 THE AC WENT OUT. (I KNOW IN AUGUST RIGHT!). THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT HONDA REPLACED THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE FOR THE O-RING. THE SERVICE WAS COVERED UNDER MY CAR WARRANTY. NINE MONTHS LATER (MAY 2019) THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THE A/C WENT OUT. THIS TIME THE HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE CONDENSER. IT IS EVEN NOTED IN THE PAPERWORK THAT THE AC IS BLOWING HOT "AGAIN". THE SERVICE WAS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. 13 MONTHS LATER (JUNE 2020) WHILE SERVICING AN OIL CHANGE, THE HONDA SERVICE FOUND A LEAK COMING FROM THE COMPRESSOR. THIS TIME IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY, HOWEVER THROUGH HONDA CARE I WAS CHARGED A DEDUCTIBLE ($100.00). *TR

A/C CONDENSER IS DEFECTIVE BUT HONDA SAYS MY VIN NOT COVERED UNDER HONDA'S 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS PART. IN ADDITION, TRIED TO GET THIS PART SERVICED UNDER THREE-YEAR WARRANTY BUT HONDA SERVICE WAS CLOSED DUE TO COVID 19 AND THE COMPANY HAS REFUSED TO EXTEND ITS WARRANTY PERIOD AS OTHER COMPANIES HAVE DONE. *TR

A FEW DAYS AGO, WHILE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK ON THE FREEWAY, I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE AC STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR. THOUGHT MAYBE BECAUSE IT WAS SO HOT. CHECKED THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IT WAS A BIT COOLER. COOLER THAN THE DRIVER SIDE AT LEAST. I KIND OF IGNORED IT FOR A FEW DAYS SINCE IT HADN'T BEEN SO HOT BUT TODAY I DECIDED TO TRY IT AGAIN AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. WARMER AIR COMPARED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE IS STILL NOT VERY COLD. THEN I REALIZED SOME FOG LIKE SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE MIDDLE VENTS AFTER LIKE 2 MINUTES OF IT BEING ON. I FELT LIGHT HEADED AND KIND OF OUT OF BREATH SO I IMMEDIATELY TURNED IT OFF AND PULLED OVER TO CATCH MY BREATH. *TR

MY VEHICLE'S AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. WENT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO PAY $206 TO FLUSH THE AC AND REPLACE THE FREON WITH DYE. APPROXIMATELY 5 MONTHS LATER THE A/C STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. WENT BACK TO HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE LEAK THEY STATE IS DUE TO THE A/C COMPRESSOR LEAKING. HONDA PROVIDED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE CONDENSER BECAUSE THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH DEFECTIVE CONDENSERS. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY WILL NOT COVER BECAUSE IT IS THE COMPRESSOR, NOT THE CONDENSER. IT APPEARS HONDA HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH ALL COMPONENTS OF THE A/C OF THESE CARS. THEY WON'T COVER THIS AS I ONLY HAVE 46K MILES ON VEHICLE AND WANT TO CHARGE $2,049.00 TO REPLACE. IN MY OPINION, THE A/C SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE AND ALL PARTS SHOULD BE COVERED. *TR

2017 HONDA CIVIC HATCHBACK SPORT, AC CONDENSER UNIT WENT BAD. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA'S HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME MY MODEL/TRIM IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE WARRANTY EXTENSION EVEN THOUGH THE CONDENSER IS OBVIOUSLY BAD.
Other or unspecified, Apr 29, 2020
THERE IS ALREADY A TSB FOR MY ISSUE. REFERENCING TSB 19-091 IT STATES THAT ALL CIVICS OF ALL TYPES OF TRIM FOR THE YEARS 2016-2018 ARE APPLICABLE FOR A RECALL. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE HATCHBACK MODELS? THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR FOR SOMETHING FAILING THAT SHOULD BE WORKING OUT OF THE FACTORY AND KEEP WORKING. 50K MILES ON MY VEHICLE.
Other or unspecified, Feb 12, 2020
2017 HONDA CIVIC AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR HAS FAILED AND IS LEAKING. THE CONDENSER IS LEAKING, WHICH IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IS BEING COVERED BY HONDA, HOWEVER THEY REFUSE TO COVER THE COMPRESSOR EVEN THOUGH THE LEAK IN THE CONDENSER CAN EASILY LEAD TO A FAILURE OF THE COMPRESSOR.

VEHICLE IS 2 YEARS OLD AND WE ARE DEALING WITH A PERSISTENT, NON-FUNCTIONING AC SYSTEM THAT SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM IN THESE HONDA CIVICS. HONDA CORPORATE REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM, LEAVING THE CONSUMER WITH A $2500 REPAIR BILL, THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE A LONG TERM FIX, ON A NEW CAR. WE LIVE IN FL AND NOT HAVING TEMPERATURE CONTROL IS DANGEROUS.

THE AC VENTS STARTED TO MAKE CLICKING NOISES AS SOMETHING WAS INSIDE OF THE VENT. THEN, THE AC UNIT WOULD BLOW HOT AIR ON ONE SIDE OF THE CABIN AND MODERATELY COLD ON THE OTHER. TWO DAYS LATER THE VENTS WOULD BLOW HOT AIR ON THE HOTTEST SETTING. AFTER GETTING THE UNIT AND CAR CHECKED OUT, THE AC COMPRESSOR WAS CRACKED. THE CAR IS WITH THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND HASN'T BEEN THROUGH ANY ACCIDENTS SO FOR IT TO CRACK IS VERY STRANGE. LOOKING UP FORMS, MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. MULTIPLE VEHICLES ACROSS MULTIPLE STATES HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE HAPPEN AROUND 37-42,000 MILES. AFTER BRINING THIS UP TO HONDA CORPORATE, THEY STATED THE CONDENSER WILL HAVE A RECALL, BUT THE COMPRESSOR IS OKAY WHICH DOESN'T MAKE SENSE BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE ARE USING OUTSIDE SERVICES TO FIX THEIR VEHICLES AND HONDA WILL NOT RECALL THE PART. THEY PRODUCED A BAD BATCH OF PARTS THAT WERE PLACED ON THEIR CARS AND NOW WANT THE OWNERS TO PAY FOR IT INSTEAD OF RESOLVING THE ISSUE.

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY NAVIGATION SYSTEM WHEN I PLUG IN MY PHONE INTO THE JACK IN THE CAR. I HAVE DRIVEN MY VEHICLE TO MY HONDA DEALER AND THEY WITNESSED MY VEHICLE ACTUALLY REMOVE MY PHONE AND REPLACE IT WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S PHONE IN MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE PHONE ALSO EVEN THOUGH I HAVE MY BLUETOOTH ON MY I PHONE AND IT WILL NOT PAIR WITH MY VEHICLE AS WELL NUMEROUS TIMES. THE TECH AT HONDA STATED TO ME IT IS AS IF SOMEONE ELSE IS CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE THROUGH YOUR RADIO FREQUENCY. MY CAR HAS BEEN UNLOCKED AT TIMES. ETC. I ASKED HOW THIS CAN OCCUR AND HE STATED IF SOMEONE HAS YOUR RADIO ID OR YOUR KEY FOB NUMBERS. THIS IS STILL OCCURRING EVEN THOUGH HONDA RE SET THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND SETTINGS TO FACTORY DEFAULT. NOW MY TRUNK WILL NOT STAY CLOSED IF SOMETHING IS IN THE TRUNK. HAPPENS AT ALL TIMES IN MOTION, STAYING STILL.

I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER ON JULY 6 BECAUSE THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING AND THE CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT A/C IN THIS HEAT AND HUMIDITY. THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT THE CONDENSER HAD FAILED AND THAT MANY 2016 AND 2017 HONDA HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE PART IS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET THE PART. I OPENED A CASE WITH HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE OVER 3000 CARS WITH THIS PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY, 7/19, THEIR BEST ESTIMATE IS THAT THEY MAY HAVE THE PART ON 7/25. NO GUARANTEE. MY CAR WILL BE OUT OF SERVICE FOR NEARLY THREE WEEKS AT THE LEAST. MORE IMPORTANTLY, MANY OF THESE CARS ARE BEING DRIVEN IN THIS HEAT ,WITHOUT A/C, WHICH IS DEFINITELY AN UNSAFE CONDITION.

I BROUGHT MY 2017 HONDA CIVIC IN FEB/2019. MY AC HAS NOT BEEN USED SINCE I BROUGHT THE CAR UNTIL IT GOT REALLY HOT WHERE I LIVE THIS MONTH. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE COMPRESSOR IS DAMAGED BECAUSE ROCKS FROM THE HIGHWAY HAS BEEN HITTING AGAINST IT. I EXPLAINED THAT I DON'T KNOW IF THE AC WAS WORKING FROM THE BEGINNING AND THAT THE CAR IS SO LOW TO THE GROUND THAT IT IS TO EXPECTED FOR ROCKS TO HIT UNDER THE CAR. THEY THEN TELL ME THAT IT WILL COST 1200 FOR ME TO GET IT FIXED. HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND FAST BECAUSE IT IS VERY HOT.

HONDA CIVIC 2017 MODEL USES NEW COMPRESSOR TO GO WITH NEW REFRIGERANT AND SEEMS TO STOP WORKING WITHOUT ANY REASON. THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE DONE TO THE CAR TO STOP THE COMPRESSOR FROM WORKING, USUAL MAINTENANCE IS KEPT UP WITH THE CAR. THE CAR IS 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE COMPRESSOR FOR NO REASON.

THE A/C STOPPED WORKING AT 2 YEARS, 4 MONTHS, BUT AS I AM AT 41,000 MILES, IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I NOTICED IT WHEN DRIVING ON SATURDAY, 6/29/19 THAT THE A/C WAS NO LONGER BLOWING COLD AIR; THIS WAS ON A DAY WHERE THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS 99 IN NORTH CAROLINA. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATES THAT THE THERE ARE BAD SEALS ON THE COMPRESSOR. THEY HAVE QUOTED ME $2,100 TO REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR AND ADD FREON TO IT. I HAVE SEEN MANY HONDA OWNERS (2016-2017) COMPLAIN OF THIS ISSUE AND AM WONDERING IF THERE'S ANY WAY TO FORCE HONDA TO PAY FOR THESE BAD COMPRESSORS?

PURCHASED 2017 HONDA CIVIC NEW FROM DEALERSHIP WITH STANDARD NEW CAR WARRANTY. AT 41,000 MILES AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. BROUGH VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD NEW COMPRESSOR WAS NEEDED AND REPAIR WOULD COST $986 + TAX. BOUGHT VEHICLE BECAUSE OF REPUTATION FOR RELIABILITY. SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND DEALERSHIP EVEN ADMITTED THAT THERE HAS BEEN A SEVERE PROBLEM WITH AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSORS FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MAKE VEHICLE. AFTER SEARCHING INTERNET FOR INFORMATION I CAME TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS TRUE AND WONDERED HOW MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WERE FACED WITH THE SAME TYPE REPAIR COSTING OVER $1,000? FILING THIS COMPLAINT SO THAT WORD GETS OUT AND SOMEONE CAN FINALLY HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE FOR SELLING A PRODUCT WITH A KNOWN DEFECTIVE COMPONENT

10TH GENERATION 2017 HONDA CIVIC LX SEDAN: FIRST REPORTED TO THE HONDA DEALER IN MAY 2018, THE TRUNK MYSTERIOUSLY OPENS WITHOUT ANY OWNER INTERACTION. HAVE GONE INSIDE OUR HOME ONLY TO COME OUT IN THE MORNING TO FIND THE TRUNK OPEN. JUST RECENTLY, IN THE LAST WEEK OF MARCH 2019, THE HONDA DEALER HAD THE CAR AGAIN AND WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEN ON SUNDAY, MARCH 31, 2019, THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. WE BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN UNDER-REPORTED PROBLEM AS SOME OWNERS MAY THINK THEY ACCIDENTLY ACTIVATED THE REMOTE KEY FOB. THIS PROBLEM HAS SHOWN UP IN THE HONDA CIVIC OWNERS FORUM ON CIVICX.COM.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUE WITH THE A/C FOR A COUPLE OF WEEK. TWO DAY AGO MY A/C STOP WORKING SO I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE A/C COMPRESSOR HAS FAILED AND IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO MY CAR HAVING 41K MILES. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN THAT THE CAR IS ONLY A YEAR OLD. THEY (DEALERSHIP) DID NOT WANT TO COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO THE MILES. THE REPAIR COST WAS $1,500. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT SEVERAL BUYER HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER ALSO MENTION THAT THEY HAVE BEEN RECEIVING A LOT OF CARS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. ALSO, I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT THE A/C TRIGGERED SOMETHING IN MY VEHICLE THAT WOULD NOT LET IT START FOR SEVERAL HOURS. THE CAR WAS PARKED WHEN THIS OCCURRED. I BELIEVE A RECALL ON THE A/C IS ENTITLED.
