2007 Honda Civic Complaint Log

I WAS DRIVING LOCALLY YESTERDAY, AND MY CAR OVERHEATED. I PULLED OVER AND LET THE ENGINE COOL DOWN, THEN CHECKED THE COOLANT IN THE RADIATOR. IT WAS EMPTY, AS WAS THE RESERVE TANK. AFTER LETTING THE CAR COMPLETELY COOL, I DROVE IT TO THE LOCAL GAS STATION AND PURCHASED SOME ENGINE COOLANT. I FILLED UP THE RADIATOR AND THE RESERVE TANK, AND DROVE HOME. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT AT A DEALER FOR TODAY ALREADY, SO I BROUGHT THIS UP TO THEM. THEY SAID IT WAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS CAR IS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC LX, WITH ~65K MILES ON IT. IT'S NOT EVEN 4 YEARS OLD YET. I'M WAITING ON THE DEALER TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH THIS WILL COST ME. *TR

ENGINE FAILURE IN 2007 HONDA CIVIC LX WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS. ENGINE SEIZED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. DANGEROUS SITUATION AS CAR GIVES NO WARNING OF PROBLEM AND JUST STALLS. *TR

OUR 2007 HONDA CIVIC SUN VISOR HAS BROKEN TWICE. THE FIRST TIME WAS ONLY A MONTH OR SO AFTER PURCHASING BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER. WHEN THE SUN VISOR BREAKS, IT DANGLES IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER'S VIEW. WHETHER IN THE FRONT OR PUSHED TO THE SIDE, THE BROKEN SUN VISOR TILTS DOWN AND DANGLES IN A DISTRACTING WAY WHICH IS DANGEROUS FOR THE DRIVER OF THE CIVIC. THE SUN VISOR WAS VERY POORLY DESIGNED BY HONDA. STRUCTURALLY SPEAKING, THE TORSIONAL RESISTANCE REQUIRED TO ROTATE THE VISOR FROM THE UP POSITION TO THE DOWN POSITION WASN'T CORRECTLY DESIGNED FOR. THE RESULT IS THAT THE INTERNAL PLASTIC CLAMPS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO RESIST ALL FORCES FROM THE INTERNALLY ROTATING METAL ARM, FAIL AND AFTER THESE PLASTIC CLAMPS INTERNALLY GET TORN APART, THE SUN VISOR DANGLES ODDLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER AND CAUSES A DANGEROUS DISTRACTION. THIS POORLY DESIGNED SUN VISOR FAILS VERY EASILY UNDER NORMAL USE, AND GIVES NO WARNING OF DISTRESS, BEFORE FAILING SUDDENLY. THIS SUN VISOR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH A CORRECTLY DESIGNED SUN VISOR THAT WON'T BRAKE AND CAUSE THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT SPEEDS OF 2 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED AN UNUSUAL SQUEAKING COMING FROM THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKES AND THE UPPER CONTROL ARM WERE REPLACED. THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 75,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC GX . THE CONTACT STATED HE WAS STRUCK FROM THE REAR AND WAS FORCED TO CRASH INTO A VEHICLE AHEAD OF HIM. THE IMPACT CRACKED THE CONTACT'S RADIATOR.THE PASSENGER'S AND DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY AND AT HAD NOT YET BEEN INSPECTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 48,000.

MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC BEGAN HAVING A LOUD SOUND COMING FROM THE DRIVERS REAR WHEEL. UPON LOOKING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA - SERVICE BULLETIN # 07-055 FOR REAR ABS WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AND O-RING INSPECTION. IT STATED THAT SOME SENSORS WERE NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY AND WATER MAY ENTER THE HUB ASSEMBLY DAMAGING THE WHEEL BEARINGS. IN AREAS WHERE ROAD SALT IS USED, THE WHEEL BEARINGS MAY CORRODE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE WHEEL FALLING OFF. I LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE ROAD SALT IS USED. MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER WAS LISTED WITHIN THE RANGE OF POTENTIALLY EFFECTED VEHICLES ON THE RECALL, BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. I CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE, EXPLAINED THAT MY CAR HAS THE WHEEL BEARING ISSUE AS STATED IN THE RECALL. THEY STATED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT EFFECTED AND ONLY CERTAIN VEHICLES IN THE NOTICE WERE EFFECTED, NOT ALL VINS LISTED. THEY STATED MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL EVEN IF MY VEHICLE HAS THE DEFECT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A SERVICE REPAIR CENTER WHICH CONFIRMED THAT MY REAR WHEEL BEARING WAS BAD AND CORRODED. THE CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. I HAD THE EXACT PROBLEM AS STATED IN THE RECALL AND FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD EXPAND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE ALL THE VEHICLES THEY HAVE LISTED IN THE RECALL NOTICE. IT'S OBVIOUS MORE VEHICLES ARE EFFECTED THAN THEY THOUGHT. IF THEY LIST A RANGE OF VIN NUMBERS THAN THEY SHOULD CHECK ALL ON THE LIST, NOT JUST PICK AND CHOOSE WHICH ONES THEY THINK MIGHT HAVE THE PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR WAS LOOSE AND DID NOT STAY IN THE FULL UP OR FULL DOWN POSITION RELIABLY, TROUBLE BEGAN A YEAR AFTER DELIVERY AND GRADUALLY BECAME WORSE. IN JUNE, 2010, THE VISOR SUDDENLY SPLIT OPEN AND THE VISOR HUNG LOOSELY AND WOULD STAY IN THE UP POSITION. I REPAIRED THE VISOR BY CLAMPING THE SPLIT PARTS TOGETHER WITH A U-SHAPED PIECE OF STAINLESS STEEL. SEEMS TO BE HOLDING FOR NOW. *TR

CAR SITS IN THE SUN WHILE AT WORK. I HAVE TINTED WINDOWS, LEAVE THEM SLIGHTLY CRACKED TO GET SOME AIRFLOW, AND ALSO USE A SUN SHIELD ON THE WINDSHIELD TO KEEP AS MUCH HEAT OUT AS I CAN. STILL, THE SUN VISOR HINGES FAIL AND THE VISORS HANG DOWN IN YOUR FACE WITH NO WAY TO GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY EXCEPT REMOVING THEM FROM THE CAR COMPLETELY. I HAD ONE VISOR REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY LAST YEAR, AND NOW BOTH DRIVER/PASSENGER VISORS ARE BROKEN IN THE EXACT SAME MANNER, INCLUDING THE VISOR THAT WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND HAVING THE VISOR FLIP DOWN IN YOUR FACE WITH NO WAY TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY IS A BIG PROBLEM. I'M A PRETTY TALL GUY, AND THE VISOR IS DIRECTLY IN MY FIELD OF VISION WHEN IT FALLS DOWN. HOLDING IT UP OUT OF THE WAY WITH ONE HAND, SECOND HAND ON THE WHEEL, AND TRYING TO SHIFT TO GET OFF THE INTERSTATE TO REMOVE THE VISOR IS NO EASY TASK... AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, THERE HAS BEEN NO REDESIGN OF THIS PART, SO IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN (SEEMINGLY EVERY SUMMER) EVEN IF I WERE TO PAY TO GET THE VISORS REPLACED EACH YEAR. *TR

2007 HONDA CIVIC DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR SPLIT AND NO LONGER LAYS FLAT AGAINST THE ROOF, CREATING A VISIBILITY PROBLEM. *TR

I AM A RESIDENT OF CHARLESTON SC AND IT GETS FAIRLY HOT HERE WITH SUMMER MONTH TEMPERATURES. I HAVE A 2007 HONDA CIVIC AND THE SUN VISORS ( BOTH OF THEM) HAVE MELTED , CRACKED AND BROKEN FROM MY CAR GETTING WARMER INSIDE WHILE SITTING.THE VISORS HANG IN THE LINE OF VIEW FOR MYSELF AND PASSENGERS OF MY VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT THIS CAR IS FAIRLY NEW,AND A SAFETY ISSUE LIKE THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING THIS IS PRETTY COMMON OCCURRENCE AFTER RESEARCHING THIS. *TR

TOOK CAR TO DISCOUNT TIRE BECAUSE REAR TIRE NOT HOLDING AIR. ON INSPECTION OF TIRE IT WAS WORN WHERE THE BELTS WERE EXPOSED. REPLACED TIRES AT THAT TIME AND HAD ALIGNMENT. TIRES RATED FOR 60,000 MILES. ON 1/30/2013 TOOK CAR IN FOR TIRE ROTATION. WAS SHOWN BADLY CUPPED TIRES. MILEAGE ON THE CAR WAS 67,000. HALF THE MILEAGE THE TIRES WERE RATED FOR. REPLACED TIRES YET AGAIN. JUST RECEIVED NOTICE OF A CLASS ACTION SUIT AND CONTROL ARM REPLACEMENT FOR THE HONDA CIVIC. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE HONDA CIVIC SI 2007. WHY IS THE SI EXCLUDED??. IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME BODY STYLE AND USES THE SAME CONTROL ARMS WHICH APPEARS TO BE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. IN FACT, YOUR SAFETY COMPLAINT FORM DOESN'T EVEN LIST HONDA SI. IT ONLY LISTS HONDA CIVIC. WITH SUCH AGGRESSIVE UNEVEN TIRE WEAR IT WOULD SEEM TO POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM SINCE THE TIRES WEAR OUT SO QUICKLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ENTERING THE HIGHWAY FROM AN ON RAMP WHEN THE ENGINE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 10 MPH. THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE HYBRID BATTERY AND REPROGRAMMING OF THE BATTERY SOFTWARE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT REQUESTED THE ORIGINAL SOFTWARE TO BE INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, NEITHER THE MANUFACTURER NOR THE DEALER WOULD ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

THE SUN VISOR IN MY HONDA KEEPS FALLING APART AND SOMETIMES IT FALLS RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I SEE ONLINE THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF HONDA OWNERS. CAN YOU DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? THIS IS THE SECOND VISOR THAT WENT BAD. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING. *TR

STARTED NOTICING A ROUGH RIDE AND EXCESSIVE ROAD NOISE SO TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALER FOR ALIGNMENT AND WAS TOLD THE NOISE WAS DUE TO TIRE WEAR. OVER THE PAST YEAR TWO REPAIR PLACES THAT HAVE REPLACED MY OIL HAVE TOLD ME THE TIRE WEAR WAS DUE TO WORN OUT STRUTS. THIS SPRING THE DEALER FINALLY TOLD ME IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM CAUSED BY THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND IT WOULD COST CLOSE TO $400 TO REPLACE THEM. MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT HAD BEEN ON MOST OF THE TIME FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND THE HONDA DEALER TOLD ME DURING THIS VISIT THAT THIS IS ALSO A COMMON PROBLEM AND IF I DIDN'T GET IT FIXED MY AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. THIS PROBLEM WOULD REQUIRE REPLACEMENT OF A WIRE HARNESS FOR NEARLY $1300. I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA TO SEE IF THERE WERE RECALLS FOR THESE PROBLEMS AND THEY AGREED TO REPLACE THE CONTROL ARMS FOR $75 AND THE WIRING HARNESS FOR $375 BUT I ONLY HAD 60 DAYS TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS FOR THIS PRICE. I GOT THE ARMS REPLACED BUT DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GET NEW TIRES OR REPLACE THE HARNESS. I HAVE NOTICED A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF TRACTION AND THE NOISE AND VIBRATION ARE SO BAD NOW THAT I CAN HARDLY DRIVE THE CAR. THESE BOTH APPEAR TO BE ENGINEERING ISSUES THAT AFFECT SAFETY OF THE HONDA CIVIC AND RECALLS SHOULD BE ISSUED TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS. *TR

I HAVE OWNED A HONDA CIVIC FOR AT LEAST 2 YEAR MAYBE MORES. ITS A 2007 MODEL. I HAD BEEN LIVING IN CHICAGO (HAD MOVED THERE) SINCE THE END OF 2008 (DECEMBER TO BE EXACT-MAKING IT ALMOST THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY 2009. I LIVED THERE TILL APRIL 2010. WE THEN MOVED BACK TO TEXAS. I HAD NOT HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE VISOR UNTIL A MONTH AND A HALF LATER BEFORE MY GIRLFRIENDS AND I LEFT FOR A TRIP TO DALLAS. THE VISOR REFUSED TO STAY UP. I HAVE NOT HOWEVER HAD THE MONEY TO BUY A NEW ONE UNTIL L NOW. STILL I FIND THIS VERY RISKY AND VERY MUCH OF A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

HONDA CIVIC MODELS 2006 AND 2007 HAVE DEFECTIVE SUN VISORS. THERE ARE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF REPORTED CASES ONLINE. TWICE IN THE PAST 14 MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN DRIVING WHEN MY SUN VISOR UNEXPECTEDLY SPLIT AT THE SEAM AND SUDDENLY FELL INTO MY LINE OF SIGHT. BOTH TIMES I WAS STARTLED AND MY VISION WAS OBSTRUCTED WHILE OPERATING THE CAR AT SPEEDS EXCEEDING 60 MPH. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT BOTH TIMES. I AM ON MY 3RD VISOR, BUT FEEL UNEASY BEHIND THE WHEEL, WORRIED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN WAITING FOR A SERVICE APPOINTMENT, I AM FORCED TO DRIVE WITHOUT A FUNCTIONAL VISOR, AND HAVE BEEN TEMPORARILY BLINDED BY THE SUN ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. I CALLED HONDA AND SPOKE WITH "MORRIS" WHO READILY ADMITTED THAT THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT THAT THEY RECEIVE, BUT HONDA WAS UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ON MY BEHALF SINCE MY CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I STILL HAVE THE LAST FAULTY SUN VISOR. *TR

THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH 2007 HONDA CIVICS, WHICH IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. THE SUN VISORS SPLIT IN HOT WEATHER, WHICH CAUSES THEM TO NO LONGER BE ADJUSTABLE TO BLOCK THE SUN WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING OVER 35 MPH, HE HEARD A LOUD HUMMING NOISE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR WHEN EXCEEDING THE SPEED RATE OF 35 MPH. THERE WAS A RELATED DEFECT ASSOCIATED WITH A RECALL UNDER NHTSA 07V399000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK WHEEL SPEED SENSOR). THE CONTACT WAS IN THE PROCESS OF NOTIFYING THE DEALER TO CONFIRM WHETHER THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, A CONSERVATIVE DRIVER, RARELY EXCEEDING 60 MPH TO INCREASE MILEAGE, AND DRIVE FOR WORK IN AN AREA EAST OF DALLAS, TEXAS. I HAD GREAT MILEAGE AND NO PROBLEMS TO SPEAK OF UNTIL THIS PAST JUNE. I FIRST HAD NOTICED A DETERIORATION IN THE GAS MILEAGE. THEN I EXPERIENCED FOR THE FIRST TIME A DRASTIC DROP IN RESPONSIVENESS. I WAS ENTERING A HWY FROM A COUNTRY ROAD AND FOUND MYSELF WITH NO POWER. THIS HAS REMAINED SO DESPITE THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE NUMBER OF BARS SHOWING ON THE GAUGE WAS SIGNIFICANTLY FEWER, AND THERE WOULD BE WILD FLUCTUATIONS OF BARS. THERE HAS BEEN NO WARNING LIGHT. I'VE HAD SEVERAL CONVERSATIONS WITH THE DEALER. MAILED AMERICAN HONDA A COMPLAINT, RESULTING IN A CALL FROM HONDA THAT SEEMED TO ME SIMPLY A WAY TO MOLLIFY. HONDA APPARENTLY DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS PROBLEM A "SAFETY" ISSUE. I BEG TO DIFFER. NOW I MUST ALWAYS BE AWARE THAT I DON'T HAVE POWER (THE COOLER WEATHER HAS GENERALLY SEEN A HIGHER NUMBER OF BARS), AND MILEAGE HAS DEFINITELY SUFFERED. ONE CLEAR EXAMPLE IS THAT SINCE THE SOFTWARE UPDATE, THE GAS ENGINE DOES NOT SHUT OFF AS MUCH AS IT USED TO, ESPECIALLY DURING HOT WEATHER. I BOUGHT THE CAR TO BE A 10 YEAR, 300,000 MILE PRODUCT, WITH NO CONCERN FOR RESALE VALUE AT THE END. NOW I'M PARALYZED WITH THE PROSPECT OF POOR RESALE VALUE, PERHAPS UNABLE TO SELL PRIVATELY - RESTRICTED TO ONLY THE DEALERSHIP. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME TO BUY A HONED - BASED ON A REPUTATION FOR DURABILITY.

SUN VISOR BROKE. I PUT MY SUN VISOR DOWN TO BLOCK THE SUN COMING IN MY EYES, AND WHEN I WENT TO LIFT IT BACK UP, IT 'SNAPPED' AND WON'T GO BACK UP TO THE LOCKED UP RIGHT POSITION. I TOOK IT TO HONDA WHILE I HAD MY OIL CHANGE TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT, AND THEY SAID IT WOULD BE 100 DOLLARS PLUS LABOR TO CHANGE IT. I REFUSED TO PAY FOR IT, AND HAVE SINCE LOOKED AND SEEN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME TYPE. MAYBE THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC EX COUPE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE REAR END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS EXAMINED HE NOTICED THAT THE REAR TIRES WERE WORN ON THE INSIDE. HE CONTACT THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THEY WOULD ASSIST HIM WITH THE COST OF REPLACING THE TIRES. HE LOCATED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT IDENTIFIED THE REAR TIRE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE REAR SUSPENSION GEOMETRY. THE VEHICLE WILL BE REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WILL BE NOTIFIED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 14,391. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,900.

MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC HAS RAPID AND UNEVEN TIRE WEAR RESULTING IN THE CAR TO NOT RESPOND CORRECTLY WHEN TURNING AT HIGH SPEEDS. BECAUSE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ADJUST CAMBER ON THE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARM. THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT ON THE CAR TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC SI. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. HE INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND SAFELY DROVE TO HIS RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED HONDA DEALER WHO WAS DIAGNOSING THE FAILURE WHEN THE COMPLAINT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE AIR BAG WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A VIN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 67,500.

REAR TIRES EATEN TO THE POINT OF FAILURE WITHIN 10,000 MILES. NO CAMBER ADJUSTMENT FOR 2007 HONDA CIVIC. DISCUSSION WITH HONDA DEALERSHIP RESULTED IN THE SUGGESTION THAT I FILE A COMPLAINT AS HONDA AMERICAN WILL NOT HONOR THEIR OWN TS DOCUMENT(TB 08-001) WITHOUT ADDITIONAL APPROVAL FROM HONDA OF AMERICA. HONDA OF AMERICAN REQUIRES A COMPLAINT, AN INVESTIGATION, AND APPROVAL BY A REGIONAL MANAGER. ADDITIONAL FOLLOW-UP APPEARS TO BE NOTHING MORE THAN ROAD BLOCKS FOR CAR OWNERS AT THE EXPENSE OF SAFETY. THE DEALERSHIP ADMITS A REPAIR KIT IS AVAILABLE FOR ABOUT $100, NOT INCLUDING ANY TIRE REPLACEMENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 65 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER YET THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO A LOCAL TIRE FACILITY WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TWO NEW TIRES. THE TIRES WERE NOT REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT DEALER FOR A THIRD OPINION. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS WERE DEFECTIVE WHICH WAS CAUSING THE TIRES TO WEAR PREMATURELY. THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS WERE REPAIRED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WORN TIRES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000 WAS AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 44,623.

I OWN A 2007 HONDA CIVIC WITH 40,000 MILES ON IT. THE SUNVISORS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE COMPLETE JUNK. I ALREADY HAD THE OEM SUNVISORS REPLACED, AND NOW THE REPLACEMENTS HAVE BROKEN IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. THE HONDA DEALER ATTEMPTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS MY FAULT THE VISORS HAD BROKEN, WHEN IT IS EXTREMELY OBVIOUS THAT IN FACT THEY MELT EVERY TIME THE TEMPERATURE GOES OVER 90 IN MY AREA. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE ONLINE AND WOULD LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT IT IS NOT JUST A PROBLEM IN THE SOUTHWEST. HAVING A SUNVISOR FLOP INTO YOUR EYES/LINE OF VISION OR NOT BEING ABLE TO PROPERLY BLOCK SUN FROM YOUR VISION ARE BOTH SAFETY ISSUES. IT IS COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE OF HONDA NOT TO REPLACE SOMETHING AS INEXPENSIVE AS A SUNVISOR AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE. *TR

2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID LOST ELECTRIC MOTOR ASSIST POWER IN MAY 2010 WHEN I WAS DRIVING UP A HILL IN DOWNTOWN SEATTLE TRAFFIC. TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALER, WHO CONFIRMED LOW POWER ASSIST AND (WITHOUT CONFERRING WITH ME) REPROGRAMMED THE POWER ASSIST SOFTWARE AND PRONOUNCED IT FIXED. ONE OR TWO DAYS AFTER THIS SERVICE CALL, I AGAIN NOTICED WEAK ELECTRIC MOTOR ASSIST ON ANOTHER HILL IN DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC. TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA AGAIN, AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THEY COULD REPLICATE THE ANEMIC POWER CONDITION, BUT SAID THAT HONDA USA SAYS THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS INTENDED WITH THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE UPDATE, AND THAT THERE IS NO MORE TO BE DONE. I SAID THAT I HAD LOST CONFIDENCE IN THE AUTOMOBILE, SINCE I CONSIDER IT A DRIVING HAZARD NOT TO BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE ADEQUATELY IN SOME DRIVING CONDITIONS. I SAID THAT I WANTED HONDA TO BUY BACK THE CAR, BUT THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT HONDA WOULDN'T DO THAT. I HAVE PURCHASED ANOTHER CAR, BUT STILL OWN THE HONDA CIVIC HYBRID; I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT, SINCE I DON'T FEEL GOOD OFFERING IT TO ANYONE OTHER THAN HONDA FOR SALE. *TR

THERE WERE NO SIGNS THAT MY DAUGHTER'S DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR, WHILE DRIVING, WAS GOING TO BREAK, AND HANG DOWN IN FRONT OF HER EYES, BLOCKING HER VIEW OF THE ROAD. IF THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, THEN WHAT IS? AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB AND NOTICING THE INCREASING NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS RELATED TO THIS ISSUE, AND CALLING MY LOCAL DEALER, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT, SINCE MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED, I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HONDA'S PROBLEM. I KNEW I HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO NOT ONLY PROTECT MY DAUGHTER, BUT ALSO PROTECT OTHER CONSUMERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IF YOU'RE READING THIS, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH HONDA USA AT 1-800-999-1009 AND DOT'S, NHTSA AT 1-888-327-4236. THE ONLY WAY, WE AS CONSUMERS, ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO MAKE HONDA DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THEIR PROBLEM, IS TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE PROPER REGULATORY AGENCY. IT UPSETS ME, TO KNOW, THAT HONDA, KNOWING THEY HAVE A DEFECTIVE PART, WILL NOT LOOK OUT FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS, AND STEP UP TO THE PLATE, AND CORRECT THIS PROBLEM THEY CREATED. MY LOCAL DEALER TOLD ME THAT SINCE MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED, IT WOULD COST ME $100.00 TO REPLACE THE SUN VISOR. I INFORMED HIM THAT I WILL MAKE A CALL TO THE ABOVE-LISTED NUMBERS, AND WE WILL PROCEED FROM THERE. PLEASE MAKE THE CALLS IF YOU'RE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. DO NOT ALLOW HONDA TO GET AWAY WITH, NOT ONLY A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT ALSO MAKING US PAY FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. MAKE SURE YOU SELECT "VISIBILITY", UNDER THE COMPONENTS NAME, LOCATED ON THE VEHICLE INFORMATION PAGE, OF THIS COMPLAINT FORM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR SUDDENLY BROKE AND HAD OBSTRUCTED HIS VIEW. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN INSPECTED OR REPAIRED WHEN THE COMPLAINT WAS FILED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 49,000.

2007 HONDA CIVIC SUN VISOR FAILS AT THE SEAM AND BLOCKS THE DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS HAS HAPPENED 8-9 TIMNES SINEC I PURCHASED HONDA IN 2007. EACH TIME THE DEALER REPLACES IT, BUT IT TAKES TIME AND IS DANGEROUS UNTIL IT IS REPLACED. CAN'T HONDA'S ENGINEERS DESIGN A VISOR? *TR

THE SUN VISOR CRACKED A FEW MONTHS AGO AND WILL NOT RETURN TO THE UPRIGHT POSITION. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL WEBSITES WHERE THIS SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT FOR SEVERAL MODEL YEARS THAT HONDA HAS NOT CHOSEN TO RESPOND TO. IT IS NOT A VISIBILITY ISSUE FOR ME, I AM UNDER 5'4" BUT IT DOES AFFECT THE LINE OF VISION FOR MY BOYFRIEND WHO IS 6'. *TR

BOTH SUNVISORS CRACKED FROM THE NORMAL SOUTHEASTERN HEAT AFTER I HAD HAD THE CAR ABOUT TWO YEARS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT REMAIN SECURE IN AN UPWARD POSITION. THE CONTACT STATED THE DEFECTIVE SUN VISOR OBSTRUCTED THE VISIBILITY. THE SUN VISOR WAS DETACHED FROM THE SUPPORT MOUNT. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN INSPECTED OR REPAIRED AT THE TIME OF THE COMPLAINT. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

WHEN I AM TRAVELING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 65MPH MY ENTIRE CAR VIBRATES/SHUTTERS/SHIMMY/SHAKES. IT IS FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND SHIFTER, AND THE OVERALL RIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT ONLY OCCURS WHEN I PRESS THE GAS TO ACCELERATE. IF I AM TRAVELING AT 72MPH AND I RELEASE MY FOOT FROM THE GAS THE VIBRATION DOES NOT GO AWAY 100%, BUT IT'S GREATLY REDUCED. AT 32,000 MY TIRES WERE COMPLETELY BALD AND WORN. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO HONDA WHO WOULD NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY WHICH EXPIRED AT 30,000. I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO A REPAIR MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THE HE COULD NOT FIX THE CAMBER WHICH WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT. IT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR AND SO I BOUGHT NEW TIRES AND HAD THEM MOUNTED, ALIGNED AND BALANCED. RECENTLY AFTER HAVING A 50,000 MAJOR SERVICE PERFORMED ON MY CAR BY HONDA THE PROBLEM CAME BACK. HAD THE RIGHT AND LEFT INNER CV JOINTS REPLACED AND THE VIBRATION STILL PERSISTS. *TR

HONDA CIVIC 2007 ENGINE COMPLETELY FAILED. SUSPECT THIS RELATED TO TSB 08-044; TOOK TO RODRIGOS AUTO REPAIR SHOP; ENGINE CRACKED. AMERICAN HONDA REFUSES REIMBURSEMENT SINCE DID NOT TAKE IT TO A HONDA DEALER. *TR

CAR WOULD NOT START DUE TO LOW BATTERY CHARGE. CAUSE IS UNKNOWN. AFTER BATTERY JUMP, THE IMA SYSTEM OF THE HONDA CIVIC HYBRID DID NOT FUNCTION. IMA YELLOW CAUTION LIGHT AND GREEN DRIVE LIGHT (FLASHING) WERE ON AND OFF. I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE IT FOR 45 MINUTES TO RECHARGE. THIS WAS DANGEROUS AS THERE WAS A LACK OF POWER. AT REST, THE CAR AND STEERING NEARLY SHUTS DOWN! THE CAR IS AT THE DEALER. THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT 21 ERROR CODES CAME ON AND THAT THEY ARE CONTACTING HONDA. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD! *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR ON MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC EX 2 DOOR SUDDENLY BURST OPEN, IT WILL NOT GO IN THE UP POSITION NOW. IT IS A HAZARD WITH NIGHT DRIVING SINCE IT WON'T GO UP. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2007 HONDA CIVIC IN LATE MAY 2007. IN SEPT 2008, THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BROKE. WHEN I CONTACTED HONDA THEY STATED THAT THIS PROBLEM ALWAYS OCCURS IN WARM CLIMATES. THE SUN VISOR WILL MALFUNCTION IN WARM CLIMATES AND IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM ON A LARGE SCALE THAT SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY HONDA. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY SAID UNTIL THE NHTSA OFFICIALLY RECALLS THE VISORS, THEY ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO DO SO. EARLY THIS MONTH IN MAY, THE PASSENGER SUN VISOR BROKE INTHE SAME MANNER. HONDA IS CURRENTLY STATING THAT THEY CANNOT COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CAR HAS EXCEED ITS MILEAGE LIMIT OF 36,000 MILES. HOWEVER, THIS EQUIPMENT FAILURE IS NOT RELATED TO MILEAGE BUT IN FACT THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THE PART IN THE SUN VISOR WILL BREAK IN ALL WARM CLIMATES. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE VISOR FAILED. THE VISOR CRACKS AND IS NO LONGER CONNECTED TO THE ROD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED. THE FAILURE IS DUE TO HEAT FROM THE SUN. *TR

HONDA CIVIC HYBRID 2007 HAS WORSE MPG (28MPG ON AVERAGE) THAN ITS NON-HYBRID TWIN OR OTHER COMPARABLE MODELS, AFTER THE NEW SOFTWARE FOR INTEGRATED MOTOR ASSIST WAS INSTALLED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS MARKED WITH 45MPG AVERAGE. MY BATTERY SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN DAMAGED AS IT DOES NOT HOLD CHARGE. *TR

I HAVE HAD THE HONDA CIVIC (2007) AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON THIS CAR IS 3YRS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 60,000 MILES ON IT WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER THIS THE CENSOR FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT AND IS A COST OF $500 BUT AFTER VIEWING ONLINE I SEE OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM AND EVEN RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEARS I FEEL THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE IT CAUSES INJURY. *TR

DRIVING ALONG AT 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR SPLIT OPEN AT THE "GLUED" SEAM AND IT FELL DOWN IN MY LAP, NEARLY CAUSING ME TO HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AS IT OBSCURED MY VISION AND CERTAINLY STARTLED ME. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SUN VISORS ON CIVIC'S MODEL YEARS 2006-08 ALL OVER THE INTERNET. *TR

THE FRONT ANTI-SWAY BAR ON THE 2007 HONDA CIVIC EX IS DANGEROUSLY WEAK. THE SLIGHTEST SIDE WIND WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE CAUSES THE FRONT END TO LIFT UP ON ONE SIDE, CAUSING THE CAR TO BE UNSTABLE. TWICE I HAD TO SWERVE ON THE INTERSTATE. BOTH TIMES I THOUGHT THE CAR WAS GOING TO ROLL DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL VERY LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. AFTER REPLACING THE FRONT ANTI-SWAY BAR, THE REAR END STILL HAD SOME SWAY, SO I REPLACED IT, TOO. ONLY EIBERG MAKES REPLACEMENTS SO FAR FOR 2007 & UP FOR THE CIVIC EX. THE CAR IS NOW SAFE TO DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE AND DURING WINDY CONDITIONS. *TR

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN APRIL 2010 (APPROXIMATELY). I NOTICED CAR WAS SHUTTERING/JERKING WHEN ACCELERATING, MOST NOTABLY BETWEEN 1500 AND 1800 RPM FROM 1ST TO 2ND AND 2ND TO 3RD GEARS. I BROUGHT TO THE DEALER AND COMPLAINED OF ISSUE. HONDA DEALER STATED THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ENGINE LIGHT ON AND WHEN CHECKED THE CARS COMPUTER DID NOT REGISTER ANY CODES THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THEY DID NOT TEST DRIVE THE VEHICLE EITHER. I RETURNED MULTIPLE TIMES FOLLOWING THIS AND DOCUMENTED IT EACH TIME. THE VEHICLE IS STILL RUNNING WITH 80,000 MILES ON IT. I BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER DEALER RECENTLY IN MD FOR BRAKE SERVICE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY TEST DROVE THE CAR AND THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED IT AS A TORQUE CONVERTER ISSUE. I AM GOING TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE FIRST DEALER I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING TO AND DEMAND THEY DRIVE THE VEHICLE. *TR

I HAVE A HONDA CIVIC 2007 AND I AM EXPERIENCING PREMATURE TIRE WEAR ON THE VEHICLE. THE ORIGINAL TIRES ONLY GOT 18,000 MILES. THE NEXT SET OF TIRES WERE WARRANTIED FOR 65,000 MILES AND I GOT 20,000 MILES ON THEM. THE NEXT SET WAS 60,000 MILE TIRES AND ARE ALMOST WORN OUT AND WILL NEED REPLACING AFTER 22,000 MILES. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND TOLD THEM OF MY PROBLEM. THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. WHAT CAN I DO? I AM REPLACING THE TIRES EVERY YEAR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD AN IMA BATTERY IN THE VEHICLE THAT WOULD NOT CHARGE IN HOT WEATHER. THE VEHICLE ALSO BEGAN TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY HAVE BEEN UPDATING THE SOFTWARE IN THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BATTERY. THERE HAVE BEEN NO REPAIRS JUST SOFTWARE UPDATES. THE VIN IS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 45500. UPDATED 10/21/10. *LJ UPDATED 10/26/10

I AM ON MY 4TH SET OF TIRES FOR 2007 HONDA CIVIC EX. ROTATED REGULARLY, SERVICED CAR AT DEALERSHIP, ONLY 52,000 MILES. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS DEFECT WITH REAR UPPER CONTROL ARM. HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 08-001 SHOWS HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE WITH PREMATURE AND UNEVEN TIRE WEAR. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL AS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE. INITIALLY I WAS NOT AWARE I WAS DRIVING ON BALD TIRES UNTIL THE CAR DIDN'T PASS INSPECTION. I DISCOVERED PROBLEM ONLINE AND WENT TO DEALERSHIP. AFTER MAKING EXCUSES AND DENYING SCOPE OF PROBLEM SERVICE REP WAS SURPRISED WHEN I SHOWED HIM THE SERVICE BULLETIN. STATED CAR IS AFFECTED BUT OUT OF WARRANTY. I CALLED HONDA CORP AND AM WAITING FOR AN INVESTIGATOR TO RETURN CALL. HONDA WILL HAVE TO PAY. I WILL NOT PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS. I WILL GO TO BBB OR STATE AG. *TR

WHEN I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AT $14,000 MILES I IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO HEAR NOISE FROM THE TIRES AT HIGHWAY SPEED BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL MY FAILED INSPECTION THAT I NOTICED THE SEVERITY OF THE UNEVEN WEAR/EAR ON MAINLY THE BACK TIRES. DUE TO A CONTROL ARM RECALL, I WENT TO HONDA IN ORDER TO GET THIS FIXED AND PURCHASED MY OWN TIRES AT THE TIME SINCE THEY WOULDN'T COVER IT. UNFORTUNATELY, ABOUT 19,000 MILES LATER, AGAIN MY INSPECTION FAILED DUE TO THE TIRES. I HAD REPLACED IT AGAIN BUT AT THIS TIME HONDA WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING AND TOLD ME THAT IT IS PAST THE WARRANTY POINT AND IF I BRING IT IN AND THEY FIND THAT THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT AS ITS NOT COVERED UNDER MY GENERAL WARRANTY. I DON'T GET THIS BECAUSE CLEARLY IT IS A MANUFACTURES RECALL AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS PLUS MY TIRES EVERY 19,000 MILES. I PURPOSELY CHOSE TO BUY A HONDA BECAUSE THEY ARE KNOWN TO BE ECONOMICAL AND RELIABLE. NONE OF WHICH MY '07 HONDA CIVIC EX HAS BEEN. I TRIED TAKING IT OUT WITH NEW TIRES DURING THE SNOW; BIGGEST MISTAKE. EVEN DRIVING IN THE RAIN IS A HAZARD. THIS SHOULD BE A HUGE WARNING FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN THE MARKET FOR A HONDA CIVIC. THESE CARS ARE NOT WORTH THE PRICE IF THE TIRES ARE NOT RELIABLE. TIRES ARE AN IMPORTANT SECTOR OF A CAR. THIS IS REALLY DISAPPOINTING AND I WOULD NOT THINK TWICE ABOUT TAKING THIS MATTER TO COURT. *TR

HONDA CIVIC 2007 VISOR POPS OPEN AND DOES NOT GRAB. VISOR FLOATS DOWN INTO FIELD OF VISION. HONDA NOT ISSUING RECALL THEY DON'T BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. MAYBE A LAWYER WILL CONVINCE THEM. *TR
