2015 Honda Civic Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SKID. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED HEAD AND CHEST INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOWING LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT A CONSTANT SPEED, THE MOONROOF GLASS RANDOMLY EXPLODED. NO ROCKS OR FOREIGN OBJECT STRUCK THE GLASS, IT WAS A SPONTANEOUS EVENT.

I WAS DRIVING ONE MILE TO WORK ON A PAVED ROAD. TRANSMISSION SOUNDS LIKE IT SLIPPING WHEN IN MOTION, RPM GOES UP TO 5 WHEN I GOING 15 MPH. CAR WAS GOING SLOW THEN SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. I IMMEDIATELY PARKED THE CAR AND AM TAKING IT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO STOP IT FROM ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER (HENDRICK HONDA POMPANO BEACH, 5381 N FEDERAL HWY, POMPANO BEACH, FL 33054), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENDRICK HONDA AGAIN. THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO DOCUMENT THE FAILURE WHEN IT RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT A SPECIALIST WOULD INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,200.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF RANDOMLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT LOOKED AT. THEY RAN TESTS ON IT AND DIDN'T KNOW WHY IT WAS HAPPENING. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT MY AIRBAG IS WORKING CORRECTLY. I HAVE AVOIDED HAVING PASSENGERS IN MY CAR WITH ME BECAUSE OF THIS, BUT CAN NOT COME TO A CONCLUSION WITH THE HELP OF HONDA ON WHAT THE ISSUE IS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON AND OFF FOR THE PAST 8 MONTHS.

PUT THE GEAR IN PARK. LEFT CAR RUNNING, WHILE I HAD TO MANUALLY CLOSE THE GARAGE DOOR. CAR STARTED MOVING AND DAMAGED THE WOODEN BACK WALL OF THE GARAGE. MY LANDLORD OWNS THE GARAGE AND THIS INCIDENT CAUSED $ 500 IN DAMAGES. THIS ISSUE COULD EASILY KILL A PERSON. WHY DOES HONDA NOT REPORT A SERIOUS ISSUE LIKE THAT. THEY ARE KNOWN TO HAVE TRANSMISSION RELATED ISSUES.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I HAVE HAD MY 2015 HONDA CIVIC COUPE SINCE OCTOBER OF 2015. FIRST ISSUE, SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE I HAVE NOTICED A STRANGE CLICKING SOUND THAT HAPPENS ONCE WHEN YOU SWITCH FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. FOR EXAMPLE, I WILL PUT OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY IN REVERSE, GO A COUPLE YARDS IN REVERSE, THEN COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND SWITCH IT TO DRIVE. AFTER I SWITCH IT TO DRIVE AND THEN DRIVE A COUPLE YARDS FORWARD, A WEIRD CLICKING SOUND COMES UP, IT IS TOWARDS THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS AN AXLE OR HUB, OR KNUCKLE. THE SECOND ISSUE IS, MY IGNITION SWITCH. IT TENDS TO HEAT UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THE REASON I SAY A FEW MINUTES IS BECAUSE, ILL PUT THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION SWITCH, THEN TURN IT AND DRIVE OFF FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AROUND THE BLOCK. THEN ILL COME TO A STOP, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, AND THE KEY WILL BE EXTREMELY HOT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I PUT MY KEYS IN MY JEAN POCKET AND IT BURNT ME. IT WASNT A BAD BURN TO WHERE IT LEFT ME A SCAR OR ANYTHING, BUT IT WAS STILL A BURN THAT IS NOT NORMAL.

I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT ON 5/29/17. MY CAR WAS HIT ON THE LEFT REAR NEAR THE FENDER WELL. THE CAR SPUN OUT OF CONTROL ACROSS THE INTERSTATE AND HIT THE GUARD RAIL FACING THE TRAFFIC. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

REAR VIEW CAMERA HAS VERY POOR IMAGE. IT IS TOO DARK TO BE RELIABLE AS A SAFETY FEATURE. CAMERA IS SO BAD IT COULD ACTUALLY PRESENT A HAZARD IF YOU RELY ON IT. ONLINE FORUMS CONFIRM THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT.

I JUST BOUGHT A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED HONDA CIVIC (2015) AND THE VERY NEXT DAY, THE "CHECK AIRBAG SYSTEM" LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. IT GOES OFF EACH TIME I START THE CAR, BUT COMES BACK ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING.

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 0 MILES HONDA CIVIC 2015 ON MAY 2015 IVE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH MY SUSPENSION MOTOR MOUNTING HAD BEEN REPLACES AS WELL AS AXELS... I'M CONCERN ABOUT MY FAMILY AND MY OWN SAFETY I'M SCARED OF AN ACCIDENT FOR A SUSPENSION PROBLEM SINCE ITS FRONT SUSPENSION... ON THE DEALER THEY ALWAYS TRY TO AVOID ON TELLING ME THE CAUSE OF THIS MATTER... I WOULD LIKE THIS SUSPENSION PROBLEM TO BE INVESTIGATE... THE TRANSMISSION IS ANOTHER PROBLEM MOST OF THE TIME YOU ACCELERATE AND THE CAR DOENST GO FAST AND FEELS LIKE SLIPS ON KICKS OUT... I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER BUT LIKE ALWAYS THEY SAID THEY DON'T FIND THE PROBLEM... THE WORST THAT THE DEALER ALWAYS REQUEST ME TO GO ON A DRIVE TEST WITH THE MECHANIC THAT'S NOT PART OF MY JOB THEY SHOULD HAVE QUALIFIED WORKERS

EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THIS CAR, THE STEERING HAS BEEN DRIVING ME CRAZY!! I CANNOT KEEP THIS VEHICLE STRAIGHT WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE ORIGINAL CHEAP TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE. I AM ON MY 3RD SET OF TIRES AND 3 ALIGNMENTS FROM THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO FIX!!! NO MATTER WHAT I DO.... THE CAR SWERVES ALL OVER THE ROAD. ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING HIGHWAY SPEEDS. CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATE AND THEY BASICALLY SAID THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. DEAR HONDA...U ARE PUTTING MY LIFE AT RISK WITH THIS 2015 HONDA CIVIC. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THE INSTABILITY OF THIS CAR. IT'S SERIOUSLY MENTALLY​ AND PHYSICALLY TAXING TO KEEP THIS VEHICLE FROM VEERING ALL OVER THE ROAD. I AM NOT KIDDING WHEN I SAY THIS...IF I WAS DRIVING BEHIND MY CIVIC...I WOULD THINK THE DRIVER WAS DRUNK. ABSOLUTELY​ THE MOST UN PLANTED VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. I AM BEGGING YOU HONDA...PLEASE ADDRESS THE WANDERING STEERING IN MY 2015 CIVIC!!! IT IS DANGEROUS!!!!

THIS CAR IS ONE YEAR OLD AND MAINTAINED FOLLOWING THE SERVICE MANUAL AND REAR TIRES ARE BALD ON 1/2 OUTSIDE TREAD , 19,000 MILES OF MOSTLY HIGHWAY !

BRAKE PROBLEM. SAFETY CONCERN. HAD TO PANIC BRAKE HARD AND FAST TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT WHILE GOING STRAIGHT AT STREET SPEED OF LESS THAN 25 MPH. NEW NOISE IMMEDIATELY AFTER EVENT: 'METALLIC CLUCK' SOUND UPON BRAKE PEDAL RETURN COMING FROM FIREWALL WHERE VACUUM BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER ARE LOCATED. ALSO NOW EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT 'HIGH HARD BRAKE PEDAL' (VACUUM ASSIST PROBLEM?) SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. TOWED TO DEALER. BRAKE PROBLEMS SHOULD NOT RESULT WHEN THEY ARE USED AS INTENDED. SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

RADIO AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM WILL FREEZE AND BECOME UNRESPONSIVE AFTER USING THE HANDS-FREE PHONE OPTION TO TERMINATE A CALL, OR ACCESS SIRI WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE SYSTEM WILL DISPLAY AN ACTIVE CALL, EVEN AFTER THE CALL HAS BEEN TERMINATED ON THE PHONE. ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THE AUDIO INPUT THROUGH THE DASH INTERFACE OR STEERING COLUMN CONTROLS WILL NOT CHANGE THE SOURCE. ATTEMPTING TO FORCE THE SYSTEM TO ACCEPT INPUT FROM AN ATTACHED PHONE BY PLUGGING IN THROUGH THE USB PORT WILL NOT LOAD THE DEVICE. A DEVICE ATTACHED VIA USB HAS THE SAME ISSUE, AND WILL NOT RESET IF THE DEVICE IS UNPLUGGED. THIS WILL RESET ONLY AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTING AFTER A FEW MINUTES. SO FAR, ONLY THE AUDIO INTERFACE IS AFFECTED.

ONGOING ISSUE. HEADREST ANGLE IS NONADJUSTABLE (ONLY HEIGHT IS) AND THUS ISN'T SAFE FOR EVERYONE. IT PUSHES THE HEAD DOWN AND COMPROMISES SPINAL ALIGNMENT. PEOPLE WITH THINNER TORSOS OR WHO SIT MORE UPRIGHT ARE AT THE MOST RISK. OPTIONS TO FIX THIS INVOLVE USING PADDING ON THE BACK OF THE SEAT OR BENDING THE BARS IN THE HEADREST, BOTH OF WHICH WOULD PROVIDE SUFFICIENT DAILY COMFORT, BUT COULD RESULT IN INJURY IN AN ACCIDENT. A MUCH BETTER SOLUTION WOULD BE THE ABILITY TO ADJUST THE ANGLE OF THE HEAD RESTRAINT FOR PROPER POSITIONING AND ASSOCIATED INSTRUCTIONS IN THE SAFETY SECTION OF THE CAR'S MANUAL.

TAKATA RECALL I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE MY AIRBAGS ARE WORKING AND NOT DEFECTIVE, BECAUSE MY LIGHT TO MY AIRBAGS COME ON AND OFF EVERY DAY , IT WILL COME ON ONCE I GET DOWN THE STREET AND JUMP OFF AND THEN COME RIGHT BACK ON . NOT SURE WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THEM.

TAKATA THIS MORNING WHEN I DID START THE CAR, THERE WAS A WARNING SIGN " CHECK POWER STEERING SYSTEM" AND THE STEERING WHEEL EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN. I DID CALL THE DEALER AND LEFT THE CAR TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. IT IS ONLY 10 MONTHS AND MILLAGE AROUND 9000. DEALER TOLD ME SOME PART NEEDED TO REPLACE (HARNESS) AND WILL COST AROUND $450. IS THIS MANUFACTURED PROBLEM ? RECALL?

THE VEHICLE (V-2) WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION AT THE 1-5 NB CYPRESS OFF RAMP IN REDDING CALIFORNIA IN EVENING PEAK HOUR TRAFFIC (AT 1810). V-2 WAS STRUCK BY V-1, WHICH IN TURN PUSHED V-2 INTO V-3. BOTH V-1 AND V-2 WERE STATIONARY AT THE TIME OF COLLISION. V-1, A ISUZA TROOPER SUSTAINED MINOR FRONT END DAMAGE. V-2 RECEIVED MINOR FRONT END DAMAGE, AND MAJOR REAR END DAMAGE. V-3, A KIA SOUL RECEIVED MINOR REAR END DAMAGE. THE ISSUE IS THAT THE V-2 AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY OR THE SEAT-BELT RESTRAIN THE DRIVER IN THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL RECEIVING A MAJOR BRAIN CONCUSSION AND BROKEN NOSE UPON BEING PUSHED BY V-1 INTO V-3. SEVERAL ON THE SCENE QUESTIONED THE LACK OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT OR THE SEAT-BELT NOT PROVIDING THE RESTRAINT NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE INJURY. MY CONCERN IS THIS IS A FAILURE OF THE SAFETY SYSTEMS NECESSARY TO RESTRAIN THE DRIVER. REPORTING PARTY IS THE FATHER OF THE DRIVER OF V-2, A TEEN DRIVER.

MY MOTHER LEASES A HONDA CIVIC 2015 AND WAS PARKING THE CAR AT A SLOW SPEED , FOOT ON BREAK THE ENGINE SURGED AND THE CAR SPED FORWARD. THE CAR HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT IT OFF. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I RESTARTED THE CAR TO BACK IT UP --AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN REVERSE (WITH MY FOOT COVERING THE BREAK) IT SURGED AGAIN AND THE CAR SPED BACKWARDS. I FILED A CASE WITH HONDA AMERICA 05128777 - THEY INSPECTED THE CAR AND SAY THEY CAN NOT FIND ANY REASON FOR THIS. I AM POSTING THIS BECAUSE IT WAS REALLY FRIGHTENING AND I DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE.

MY DAUGHTER (17 YEARS OLD) WAS DRIVING AT 35 MILES IN LEONA VALLEY CA ON LAST FRIDAY 2015 HER HONDA CIVIC (7,000 MILES ON ODOMETER). HER CAR LOW-PRESSURE AIR LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN CAR STARTED TO SWERVE VIOLENTLY LEFT TO RIGHT. WITHIN FEW MINUTES THE CAR BRAKES STOPPED FUNCTIONING (ACCORDING TO HER, IT FELT SHE WAS PUSHING ON AIR WHEN SHE PRESSED THE BRAKE PADDLE) AND THEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. THE CAR ENDED UP ON ITS SIDE AND CAUGHT FIRE. IT STARTED A BRUSH FIRE (25 ACRES) HERE IN CA. WHEN MY DAUGHTER AND HER TWO FRIENDS TRIED TO GET OUT THE DOOR, THE OTHER DOOR WON'T OPEN. THEY HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE SUN ROOF. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS WHAT CAUSED THE FIRE AND WHY DID THE CAR'S BRAKES AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED? WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO FIND OUT WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN IN ORDER TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF ROOT CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT?

I HAD A CAR ACCIDENT A COUPLE DAYS AGO I GOT INJURED FROM MY NECK AND MY BACK I HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL DUE TO A MALFUNCTION OF MY AIR BAGS. THEY DIDN'T DEPLOY. BUT MY CAR IS ASKING ME TO CHECK THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AND THEY TURNED OFF ALSO MY SEAT BELT FOR SOME REASON GOT STUCKED IT WON'T PULL MORE.

WE WERE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC, SEAT BELTS WERE FASTENED, TURN SIGNAL ON, AND WE WERE REAR-ENDED BY A WORK VAN MOVING AT VERY HIGH SPEED. OUR CAR WAS TOTALED. THE FRONT SEATS WERE BROKEN DUE TO THE IMPACT. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. NOT FRONT, NOT SIDE.

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS AND THE REAR WINDOWS OBSTRUCTED HER VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,500. ...UPDATED 09/12/16 *BF *JS

THE TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM) WARNING LIGHT TURNS ON EVERY SO OFTEN FOR NO REASON. I BOUGHT A TIRE PRESSURE CHECKER AND WHEN IT TURNED ON I CHECKED ALL FOUR TIRES PER THE PSI RECOMMENDATION ON THE DOOR PANEL STICKER AND THEY WERE IN THAT RANGE. IT SEEMS TO ME THE SYSTEM IS FAULTY. IT COULD BE A SOFTWARE PROBLEM.

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT KEEP THE CAR FROM MOVING, THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MOVE AFTER YOU APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR.

I REPORTED DURING THE LAST OIL CHANGE THAT THE CAR WAS STALLING SPECIFICALLY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE BETWEEN 10 MPH & 30 MPH. THE CAR STALLS, AND HAS EVEN COMPLETELY STOPPED FOR A FULL 60 SECONDS WHILE TRYING TO CHANGE LANES IN TRAFFIC EVEN THOUGH THE GAS PEDAL WAS COMPLETED DEPRESSED. THIS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THE TECH SAID IT WAS DUE TO THE ECON BUTTON AND THE ENGINE TRYING TO CONSERVE ENERGY. I WAS TOLD TO NOT USE THE ECON BUTTON (ALTHOUGH THIS IS SUPPOSE TO SAVE ME MONEY ON GAS AND FUEL EFFICIENCY AND PART OF THE ALLURE OF THE VEHICLE.) DESPITE THAT I HAVE HAD THE ECON BUTTON OFF AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO STALL AND NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. AGAIN THIS IS USUALLY BETWEEN 10 MPG TO 30 MPH. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM OR PART OF THE PISTOL PIN SNAP RING PROBLEM OR EVEN POSSIBLY A FUEL INJECTOR PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE AND OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY. MY HUSBAND HAS THE SAME TYPE AND YEAR VEHICLE AND HIS DOES NOT BEHAVE THE SAME WAY. HIS ACCELERATION APPEARS TO BE FINE AND DOES NOT STALL AS MINE DOES. ALSO THE TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE HAS COME ON TWICE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. ONCE WAS 8-15-15 DURING A 4 HOUR ROAD TRIP WHICH OCCURRED AFTER WE ARRIVED. THE 2ND TIME WAS IMMEDIATELY AFTER I RETURNED HOME FROM MY LAST OIL CHANGE IN 4-2016. THIS IS THE (3RD) REPORTED PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. PROBLEM (1) WAS THE STAINED HEADLINER (6/2015)WHICH WAS REPLACED AND HAS NOT HAD ANY FURTHER ISSUES (2) WAS THE CENTER CONSOLE PIN COMING LOOSE AND POPPING UP (4-2016) WHICH HAS CURRENTLY REMAINED INTACT AND NOW THE ACCELERATION IS GETTING WORSE. (CONTINUOUSLY).

AROUND 8500 MILES WHILE DRIVE 35 MPH THE CAR SUDDENLY VEERED TO THE RIGHT HITTING THE CURB CAUSING $1200 PLUS DAMAGES TO THE WHEEL, ETC. AROUND 12,250 MILES WHILE DRIVING 45-50 MPH THE CAR SUDDENLY VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND RAN OFF THE ROAD CAUSING A BROKEN BACK AND $725 IN DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL SKIRTS. THIS HAPPENED 5/13/16. SUBSEQUENTLY THIS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES AROUND 40-45 MPH BUT WITH NO ACCIDENTS AS NO CARS WERE IN THE RIGHT LANE. REPORTED TO AMERICAN HONDA AND THE CASE WAS DISMISSED AS THEY CAN'T IDENTIFY ANY PROBLEMS. THE STEERING WHEEL WOBBLES BUT NOT CODES SHOW UP.

WE BOUGHT A BRAND NEW HONDA A COUPLE MONTHS AGO WE USUALLY DO NOT DRIVE IT MUCH SINCE IT IS FOR MY WIFE WHO TAKES THE BUS TO WORK. ONR DAY WR GOT A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE WARNING. SO I CHECKED TIRED AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE WITH THEM. THE WARNING WE WERE RECEIVING ACCORDING TO HONDA IS TPMS. AND IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING TO ALOT OF THERE CARS. FIESTA AND FOREMOST THIS IS SUCH A SAFETY HAZARD. BECAUSE WHEN THE REAL DAY COMES WHEN I DO NEED AIR I WILL NEVER KNOW. IT IS ALSO SAD THAT HONDA WAD AWARE OF THIS AND NEGLECTED TO MENTION IT TO US. THE OTHER THIN IS MY OLD CAR HAD FOR 15 PLUS YE AS DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF THESE HIGH TECH GADGETS,AND THESE NEW ONES I KEEP READING HAVE THIS ISSUE OR THAT. I'M STARTING TO BECOME EXTREMELY WORRY AND WONDER IF IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE. I AM CALLING THEM TODAY TO SET AN APPOINTMENT TO GT IT FIX

Factory paint is peeling off from multiple location.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, IT VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A POLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIE ROD HAD FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

STICKING DRIVE BY WIRE THROTTLE BODY SYSTEM , WHEN SHIFTING CLUTCH IS NOT RELEASING RIGHT OR TO THE VEHICLE SPECS ON THE VEHICLE AND ENGINE VIBRATION WHEN IDLING. WHEN STARTING TO DRIVE , VEHICLE ENGINE VIBRATION WHEN DRIVING ON NORMAL ROAD AN HIGHWAY TOO.

AFTER A SHORT DRIVE, I NOTICED A BULGE IN THE RIGHT REAR TIRE. THIS TIRE IS ORIGINAL TO THE VEHICLE AND HAS APPROXIMATELY 1700 MILES OF WEAR.

I FIRST PURCHASED A 2015 HONDA CIVIC AND STARTED HEARING THIS "GRINDING/CREAKY" WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON MY BRAKES, COMING FROM MY REAR. DON'T GET ME WRONG, I AM ABLE TO USE MY BRAKES AS I WANTED, BUT WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKES TO PUT IN GEAR OR JUST PUSHED DOWN A LITTLE TOO HARD, I WOULD HEAR THIS NOISE. ALSO I NOTICED, WHENEVER I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS (TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE THIS OUT), I WOULD HEAR THIS "THUMPING" NOISE. IF I DO NOT HAVE GAS IN MY CAR, I DO NOT HEAR THE NOISE. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP A TOTAL OF 3 TIMES. THE MECHANICS TOLD ME THESE WERE NOT NORMAL NOISES, THEY TRIED TO DIAGNOSE MY CAR, IF KEPT MY CAR THE LAST TIME FOR 5 DAYS BUT WAS UNABLE TO GET THE SOUND TO REALLY GO AWAY. I EVEN TIRED TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALERSHIP TO GET MY CAR LOOKED AT, BUT I WAS TOLD, "TO TAKE MY CAR BACK WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM BECAUSE ITS CLEAR THERE IS A PROBLEM, AND THEY DIDN'T WANT THEIR TECHS NAME ON IT". I WAS SHOCKED. I WENT BACK TO THE ORIGINAL DEALER AND THEY EVEN CALLED THE AMERICAN HONDA TECHNICIANS WHO WERE OF NO HELP. I WAS FED UP AND FELT UNSAFE IN MY CAR, SINCE I WAS BEING TOLD THESE WERE NOT "NORMAL" NOISES, I ASKED TO TRADE IN MY CAR (SAME EXACT YEAR/MODEL). DESPITE TEST DRIVING THE SECOND CAR (ON AN EMPTY GAS TANK), I DIDN'T HEAR ANY NOISES INITIALLY. BUT NOW ITS BEEN A FEW DAYS AND I HEAR THE EXACT SAME NOISES IN THIS CAR, AS I DID THE FIRST ONE. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I JUST WANT A CAR THAT DOES NOT MAKE ANY OF THESE NOISES. I JUST TRADED IN MY CAR TO RECEIVE THIS ONE I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING ON 2/5/16. I HAVE YET TO GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW OF THESE NOISES ON THE 2ND CAR, BECAUSE I FEAR BEING JERKED AROUND AGAIN. I REACHED OUT TO CORPORATE AND RECEIVED A CASE MANAGER NAMED ROBIN WHO HAS YET TO GET BACK TO ME AND NEVER RETURNS PHONE CALLS. I AM DESPERATE TO FIND OUT THESE NOISES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DURING COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, COLD AIR EMITTED THROUGH THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE A/C BEING ACTIVATED. IN ADDITION, THE ENGINE REVVED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50. UPDATED 08/15/17*LJ *CN

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ON 01/27/2016 WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO MAKE RIGHT TURN ON AN INTERSECTION WITH THE RIGHT TRAFFIC LIGHT ON. SUDDENLY IT ACCELERATED AT ABOUT 60MILES AND HOUR. ALL MY EFFORT TO STOP IT BY APPLYING THE BREAKS FAILED TEMPORARILY. THE ODOMETER READING ON THE CAR IS ABOUT 13,400 MILES. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY PARKED AND NOT TO BE DRIVEN UNTIL HONDA CORPORATION TELLS ME WHAT TO DO. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS EXPERIENCE WITH OTHER CARS I HAVE OWNED OR DRIVEN OVER THE PAST 22 YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CHECK ENGINE AND ABS LIGHTS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE WAS ALSO PRESENT WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AND AT VEHICLE STARTUP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RICK CASE HONDA (15700 RICK CASE HONDA WAY, WESTERN DAVIE, FL) WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE NOX SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V574000 (POWER TRAIN). THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEAD RESTRAINTS FORCE HER HEAD FORWARD IN A DIFFICULT POSITION. THE CONTACT WAS UNCOMFORTABLE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEAD RESTS COULD NOT BE ADJUSTED FOR SAFETY REASONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,500.

ON THE MORNING OF 12/14/15, WHILE TAKING MY NEW CAR , THAT HAD 3,400 MILES ON IT, TO THE DEALERAHIP FOR IT'S FIRST NEW CAR SERVICE I HAD A BLOW OUT OF THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE DOING 70 MPH. WHEN I FINALLY ARRIVED AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY EXAMINED THE BLOW OUT AND COULD SEE NO DAMAGE TO THE TIRE THAT WOULD ACCOUNT FOR THE BLOW OUT. THE SAME WAS TRUE WHEN I GOT TO A MICHELIN DEALER WHO ALSO EXAMINED THE TIRE, HE COULD FIND NO DAMAGE THAT WOULD SUPPORT ANYTHING OTHER THAN A DEFECTIVE TIRE. WHEN THE TIRE BLEW IT BROKE THE REAR WHEEL SUSPENSION COVER. MICHELIN REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE COST OF THE NEW TIRE SINCE THE BLOW OUT CAUSED ADDITIONAL DAMAGE TO THE REAR SUSPENSION. MICHELIN WANT ME TO GO THROUGH THEIR "CLAIM PROCESS" WHICH INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO MY RETURNING THE TIRE. AFTER NUMEROUS PHONE CALLS, EXPLAINING THAT BEING A SENIOR CITIZEN , CARRYING A TIRE TO BE MAILED IS NOT AN OPTION NOR WAS THE COLLECTION OF THE RUBBER THAT WAS LEFT ON THE TURNPIKE AN OPTION FOR ME TO COLLECT AND SEND, IN THE AT]LTERNATIVE I'VE ASKED MICHELIN TO SEND ONE OF THEIR REPRESENTATIVES TO MY HOME TO EXAMINE THE REMAINS OF THE TIRE ONOLY TO0 BE TOLD THAT IS NOT THEIR POLICY I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS NEW CAR FOR FEAR OF THE OTHER 3 TIRES BLOWING OUT. I WANT MICHELIN TO REPLACE THE 3 REMAINING TIRES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON THE CAR, TO PAY THE COST OF THE REAR WHEEL SUSPENSION WHICH IS $199.94, AND REIMBURSE ME FOR THE $201.43 I PAY TO REPLACE THE TIRE THAT BLEW OUT. SINCE TIRES ARE OUR FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE, MY FEARS ARE BASED ON MY HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I NEED MICHELIN TO STEP UP AND STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. PICTURES OF TIRE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST EMAIL: [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PARKING, THE AIR BAGS INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THERE WERE ANY INJURIES REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. UPDATED 02/23/16*LJ

HEADREST AND CONCAVED SEATS ARE MAKING MY LIFE MISERABLE. I HAVE A LONG COMMUTE IN LA TRAFFIC TO/FROM WORK. I USUALLY USE THE TIME TO RELAX AND DECOMPRESS FROM A DAY OF TEACHER, INSTEAD THIS TIME HAS BECOME DREADFUL AND PAINFUL EXPERIENCE. I'VE HAVE BACK PROBLEMS AND NEXT PROBLEM FOR YEARS AND I'VE RECENTLY REALIZED ITS MY STUPID CAR! I JUST RETURNED FROM A 3 WEEK TRIP AND MY BACK PROBLEMS WERE NONEXISTENT DURING MY TRAVELS...FIRST DAY BACK HOME AND DRIVING AND MY BACK IS KILLING ME AGAIN! IN HINDSIGHT, THIS HAS BEEN THE SAME FOR PREVIOUS TRIPS. SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT AS I'VE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA DRIVER.

PURCHASED 2015 HONDA CIVIC (SPECIAL EDITION) IN NOV, 2015. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ANY SPEED (HIGHWAY OR STREETS), WHEN I TAKE OFF MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR "KICKS" A BIT, LIKE THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT DOES IT MORE OFTEN WHEN DRIVING THE STREETS. THEN WHEN ACCELERATING, IT DOES NOT FEEL THAT IT'S CHANGING GEARS PROPERLY. IT "KICKED" ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY AND WAS PRETTY LOUD. I'M NOT A MECHANIC SO IT'S HARD FOR ME TO DESCRIBE WHAT IS HAPPENING. I THOUGHT THE CAR WAS JUST "BREAKING ITSELF IN" SO I WAS NOT CONCERNED. BUT MY BOYFRIEND SAYS IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING WITH THE POWER TRAIN/DRIVE SHAFT. I LOOKED UP ANY RECENT RECALLS ON 2015 CIVICS AND THERE IS ONE FOR THE POWER TRAIN. I CONTACTED THE DEALER BUT WAS ADVISED MY CAR IS NOT AFFECTED IN THE RECALL. MAYBE NOT, BUT IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AS WHAT THE RECALL DESCRIBES. I'LL BE TAKING IT IN FOR THEM TO LOOK AT ON DEC 30TH, 2015.

TRYING TO STOP CAR BUT IT ACCELERATE AND WHEELS LOCK CAUSING AN ACCIDENT

I HAVE A 2015 HONDA CIVIC WITH THE LX TRIM PACKAGE. THE SCREEN FOR THE BACKUP CAMERA IS SMALL AND BACK ABOUT 3 INCHES UNDER THE DASH OVERHANG. IN BRIGHT DAYLIGHT THIS SCREEN IS UNREADABLE DURING BACKUP DUE TO LIGHT WASHOUT AND GLARE. IT WORKS WELL AT NIGHT, BUT ALMOST NOT AT ALL IN SUNLIGHT. BECAUSE OF THE HIGH MOUNTED REAR WINDOW THERE IS NO VISIBILITY FOR SEVERAL FEET BEHIND THE CAR WHEN BACKING UP WITHOUT THE BACKUP CAMERA. I HAVE BACKED INTO SEVERAL THINGS THAT DID NOT STICK UP ABOVE THE TRUNK LINE THAT COULD HAVE JUST AS EASILY BEEN A SMALL CHILD. THIS CAR HAS THE WORST DAYLIGHT BACKUP VISIBILITY OF ANY CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. I BELIEVE IT IS UNSAFE.

NOTICED A SHUDDER WITH VEHICLE DURING 1ST WEEK OF PURCHASE. THOUGHT IT WAS A LITTLE WEIRD SINCE BEING A NEW CAR. ASSUMED THAT IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT WITH REGARDS TO BREAK IN OF VEHICLE. 2ND WEEK OF OWNERSHIP ON MY WAY TO WORK, NOTICED THE SHUDDER MULTIPLE TIMES DURING STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THIS SHUDDER LATER TRANSITIONED INTO A KNOCK OR PINGING OF SOME SORT WHILE JERKING AND ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN WITHOUT ANY DRIVER INPUT. VERY SCARY AT THIS POINT...GOT OFF THE FREEWAY AND PARKED THEN TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. UPON START UP, VEHICLE STILL IDLING VIOLENTLY. HAD TO GET TO WORK SO JUST BRAKED MOST OF THE WAY AND DROVE WITH ADDED CAUTION. AFTER WORK, CAR BEHAVED NORMALLY ON MY WAY HOME WITH ECON AND AIR CON BOTH OFF. SHUDDER IS STILL PRESENT TO THIS DAY DURING LIGHT TO MODERATE ACCELERATION AT 30 - 40 MPH. I AM FEARFUL OF USING THE ECON AND AIR CON TOGETHER AS THIS WORSENS THE PROBLEM. HONDA AND THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS.

WHEEL BEARING DEFECTIVE CAUSED LOUD NOISE WHILE DRIVING

DRIVING UNDER 30 MPH IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA A CAT CROSSED MY PATH. I SWIVERD TO THE RIGHT SCRAPPED A PARKED CAR AND HIT MY BREAKS HARD AND MY FRONT AXLE WENT OUT. THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE PRACTICALLY CAME OUT LEAVING THE CAR WRECKED

VEHICLE VIBRATES WITH NOISE WHEN IN REVERSE MODE. DEALER AND HONDA CLAIM IT IS NORMAL. IT SEEMS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ALREADY WIDELY KNOWN TO MANY HONDA OWNERS. THE VIBRATION HAPPENS MORE WITH ECON MODE IS SWITCHED ON. THIS CREATES THE FEELING THAT THIS CAR ENGINE IS NOT MOUNTED WELL AND IT COULD LEAD TO MAJOR ACCIDENT DURING DRIVING. THERE WERE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO ALREADY CHANGED THEIR ENGINE MOUNTS ONLY WHEN CAR HAS LOW MILEGE.

9/22/2015 APPROXIMATELY AROUND 3:30PM I WENT TO START MY CAR TO LEAVE MY HOME TO DO AN ERRAND. I SMELL GASOLINE. I DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT THE SMELL. I PROCEED TO DRIVING TO MY DESTINATION. I WAS ABOUT MILE FROM MY HOME, ANOTHER CAR PULLED UP BESIDE ME AND HONKED HORN INFORMED ME THAT CAR WAS LEAKING GAS. I PULLED OVER TO CHECK AND SAW CAR WAS LEAKING CAR. I OPEN GAS DOOR TO SEE IF GAS CAP WAS OFF CHAMBERS. IT WAS NOT. I TURN CAR AROUND AND PROCEED BACK HOME. WHILE HEADING BACK HOME OTHER CARS HONKED AT ME AND INFORMED ME OF LEAKAGE. AFTER I GOT I HAD MY HUSBAND TO CHECK THE CAR. THE WHEN TURNED THE IGNITION OFF THE CAR STOP LEAKING FUEL. WHEN TURNED BACK ON IT START LEAKING AGAIN. HE SAW THE LEAKAGE FROM THE FUEL LINE. I CALLED DEALERSHIP (CREST HONDA) AND INFORMED THEM OF THE PROBLEM. I HAD MY CAR TOW TO DEALERSHIP. 9/23/15 RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP STATING THAT A RODENT HAD EATEN THROUGH MY FUEL LINE. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES WITH FUEL SYSTEM BEFORE 9/22/15. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR DAILY. I HAD JUST DRIVEN THE CAR ON 9/21/15 DOING ERRANDS AND THERE WERE NOT ANY SIGNS OF SMELLING GAS OR FUEL LEAKAGE. I DO NOT BELIEVE A RODENT COULD HAVE EATEN THROUGH MY FUEL OVERNIGHT. THERE WERE 3 OTHER CARS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT. I HAVE BEEN AT MY RESIDENCE FOR 20 YEARS NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH A CAR OF A RODENT EATING THROUGH A FUEL LINE OR ANY OTHER ITEMS ON THE OUTSIDE OF MY HOME. I PURCHASED CAR BRAND NEW 2/2015 ONLY OWNER.
