THE REAR SUB-FRAME ON MY 2000 HONDA CIVIC SI HAS RIPPED ON BOTH SIDES. THIS IS NOT JUST A PROBLEM I AM HAVING. I KNOW OF SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM. I DO NOT RACE THE CAR AND ALL OF THE DRIVING IS DONE ON ROAD. ASIDE FROM AN AFTERMARKET CLUTCH THE VEHICLE IS STOCK, NO SUSPENSION WORK AT ALL. THE CAR COMES WITH A 13MM REAR SWAY BAR AS STOCK EQUIPMENT. WHEN I BEGAN HEARING ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SUB FRAME RIPPING I PURCHASED REINFORCEMENT PLATES AND INSTALLED THEM IN AN EFFORT TO REDUCE THE STRESS PLACED ON THE SUB-FRAME. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM! THIS IS STRUCTURAL FAILURE! AS SOON AS I NOTICED THE PROBLEM I TOOK THE CAR TO A FRAME SHOP AND HAD IT REPAIRED AT A COST OF $500. THE TECHNICAN WHO FIXED THE VEHICLE TOLD ME HE HOPED THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN BUT WITHOUT A STRONGER SUB FRAME HE SAW NO REASON THAT THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS OBVIOUSLY PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
TRUNK LID WOULD FALL INTERMITTENTLY, CAUSING INJURY TO CONSUMER'S HEAD. DEALER NOTIFIED, AND INFORMED CONSUMER THAT THEY COULD NOT ADJUST IT ANY MORE. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS ON THIS MATTER. *AK
POWER LOCKS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY. AS LONG AS THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION THE DOORS WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO LOCK. THEY FLICKERED FROM UNLOCKED TO LOCKED. CONSUMER HAD TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN TO GET OUT OF VEHICLE. DEALER SAID DRIVER'S SIDE LOCKING UNIT NEED TO BE REPLACED. PROBLEM STILL PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT. *AK *ML
I BOUGHT A HONDA CIVIC 2000 AND THE VEHICLE HAS A MAJOR FLAW IN ITS CAR SEATS. IT PRODUCES HIGH ELECTRICITY SHOCKS WHEN YOU TOUCH THE DOORS (METAL). I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT AND A POTENTIAL LAWSUIT FOR HONDA IF SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED IN AN EXPLOSION. THIS IS AN EVERYDAY ISSUE AND MY FAMILY IS EVEN AFRAID TO GET IN THE CAR. *AK
