2016 Honda Civic Complaint Log

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT AT THE TOP CENTER OF THE REAR WINDOW ON THE COUPE VERSION OF THIS CAR DOES NOT STAY ADHERED TO THE WINDOW. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE IN VISIBILITY IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. BESIDES REDUCING VISUAL SIGHT AREA, AT NIGHT THE RED LIGHT UPON BRAKE APPLICATION IS BOTH DISTRACTING AND OBLITERATES ANY OTHER VIEWING OUT OF THE REAR WINDOW. DEALER ATTEMPT TO FIX WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. PART NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED FOR A BETTER INSTALLATION METHOD THAN DOUBLE SIDED TAPE ON THE EDGE OF THE PART. MANY OTHER COUPE OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ONLINE ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE.

ELECTRONIC BRAKE FAILURE - TURNED VEHICLE ON IN DRIVEWAY, BRAKES LOCKED. CAR TOWED. HONDA HAS A WORK AROUND PROCESS TO AVOID THIS. I READ POSTS THAT THIS OCCURRED TO PEOPLE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR. HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM.

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT AT TOP CENTER OF THE REAR WINDOW ON THE COUPE VERSION OF THIS CAR DOES NOT STAY ADHERED TO THE WINDOW. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE I VISIBILITY IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. BESIDES REDUCING VISUAL SIGHT AREA. AT NIGHT THE RED LIGHT UPON BRAKE APPLICATION IS BOTH DISTRACTING OBLITERATES ANY OTHER VIEWING OUT OF THE READ WINDOW. DEALER ATTEMPT TO FIX WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. PART NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED FOR BETTER INSTALLATION METHOD THAN DOUBLE SIDED TAPE ON THE EDGE OF THE PART. MANY OTHER COUPE OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER WILL NOT STAY AFFIXED TO WINDOW CAUSING LIGHT TO FLOOD THE BACK GLASS WHEN BRAKING.

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT HAS FALLEN OFF. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TO FIX IT FOUR TIMES AND NOW SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AT HONDA AND THERE IS NO FIX. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THERE IS NO WAY TO SEE OUT THE BACK WINDOW IN THE DARK OR WHEN CONDENSATION IS ON THE WINDOW, IF THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED. ALL YOU SEE IS A REFLECTION OF THE BRAKE LIGHT. WITHOUT THE BACKUP CAMERA, THE CAR WOULD NOT BE DRIVABLE. THIS OCCURS WHEN STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. IT

I PARKED MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC IN MY GARAGE AND SET THE PARKING BRAKE. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WALKED INTO THE HOUSE. THE VEHICLE MUST HAVE ROLLED OUT OF THE GARAGE (GARAGE SURFACE IS RATHER FLAT, PROBABLY WHY I DIDN'T SEE THIS HAPPEN) DOWN MY SLOPED DRIVEWAY ENDED UP IN THE NEIGHBORS YARD. VEHICLE SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE EXHAUST, BUMPER, UNDERSIDE OF TRUNK AND RIGHT REAR TIRE. THANK GOODNESS THAT NOBODY WAS INJURED. AT THE TIME I THOUGHT MAYBE I MADE A MISTAKE BUT NOW THAT HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE PARKING BRAKE I UNDERSTAND WHAT REALLY HAPPENED. I DID SET THE PARKING BRAKE BUT IT APPEARS THAT IT DID NOT EVER SET. I HAVE SINCE SEEN THIS HAPPEN AGAIN WHEN I HAVE PARKED ON OTHER SOMEWHAT FLAT SURFACES AND RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE AND IT APPEARS AS THOUGH IT HAD MOVED A SMALL AMOUNT. WITH THE RELEASE OF DETAILS IN THE SAFETY RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V725000 ) I NOW UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC EQUIPPED WITH FIRESTONE TIRES ST140 (NA) TIRES, SIZE: 215/50/R17 (NA). WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT, WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR STRUCK A TREE AND FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE TIRE WAS NOT REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE AND TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,343.

WITHIN A MONTH OF PURCHASING MY CAR IN JULY THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER HAS FALLEN DOWN. WHEN IT IS DARK THE RED LIGHT FROM THE BRAKE LIGHT REFLECTS ON THE REAR WINDOW MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT THE REAR WINDOW. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE FAULT WAS INITIALLY NOTICED. HONDA HAS NOT COME UP WITH ANY FIX TO THIS PROBLEM. THE ADHESIVE USED FOR THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO WITH STAND THE HEAT ABSORBED BY THE BACK WINDSHIELD.

WE BOUGHT THIS CARE BRAND NEW FOR MY DAUGHTER FROM A HONDA DEALER. TWO WEEKS LATER WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING BACK HOME FROM SCHOOL AT AN INTERSECTION IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD , ENGINE WENT FROM 15MPH TO 6MPH TO ZERO. ENGINE COMPLETELY FAILED. LATER I FOUND OUT THAT THIS MODEL HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A PROBLEM WITH A PISTON RING . HONDA SERVICE IS TELLING US THE A NEW ENGINE WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE CAR, DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO , NONE OF US IN OUR FAMILY FEELS SAFE ABOUT DRIVING THIS CAR , BECAUSE IF SHE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 55MPH AND THIS HAPPENED, IT WOULD BE A DISASTROUS SITUATION AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN. HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANT CAME AN TOWED THE CAR TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT . THIS CAR HAS 320 MILES ON IT.

THE COVER FOR THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT ON THE REAR WINDOW DOES NOT STAY ATTACHED TO MY 2016 CIVIC COUPE. I BELIEVE IT'S GOING TO CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT LIMITS MY VISIBILITY IN REAR VIEW MIRROR. I BRING MY NEW CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOUR TIME SO FAR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND STILL NOT FIX. THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACE THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER BUT THE NEW PART DOES NOT STAY ATTACHED EITHER. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THIS PART NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED FOR A BETTER ATTACHMENT TO THE REAR WINDOW . I DO HOPE AT THIS POINT THAT HONDA WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM SOON

CAR PURCHASED IN MAY , WITH 3700 K HAS HAD 3 ISSUES: GETTING READY TO BACK UP OUT OF DRIVEWAY - THE BACKUP SCREEN WAS DIMINISHED TO A SMALL SLIVER ACROSS THE TOP OF ENTIRE SCREEN WITH THE BALANCE OF SCREEN BLACK. TOOK IT TO DEALER TO BE FIXED. WHEN I DROVE AWAY, ERROR MESSAGES, "TIRE PRESSURE LOW, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM AND ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM." TOK IT RIGHT BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID THE TECHNICIAN FAILED TO FORGOT TO ALLOW THE COMPUTER TO RUN THRU THE ENTIRE CYCLE BEFORE RETURNING THE CAR TO ME. JUST HAD PROBLEM WITH THE A/C. CAR WOULD BLOW HOT AIR AFTER 15 MINS OF DRIVING - WAS TOLD HOSE WAS COLLASPING KEEPING COLD AIR FROM COMING OUT. HOSE WAS REPLACED- DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, SAME ISSUE AFTER 15 MINS OF DRIVING. HAD TO COMPLETELY TURN OFF AIR AND LEAVE IT OFF FOR 1/2 HOUR OR MORE TO GET A/C TO WORK. DEALER HAS NOW REPLACED THE A/C COMPRESSOR.

CERTAIN HONDA CIVIC'S HAVE APPLE'S CARPLAY INSTALLED, THROUGH THE IOS IPHONE MOBILE PHONE PLATFORM. WHEN ENABLED, OR PLUGGED INTO THE CAR, NAVIGATION SUPPORT PROVIDED BY APPLE'S MAPS APPLICATION GOES INTO 'DAY MODE' WHILE AT NIGHT. THIS CREATES A HUGE AMOUNT OF BRIGHTNESS IN THE CAR AND BLINDS THE DRIVER WITH BRIGHTNESS. THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM AND I CAN EASILY SEE HOW ACCIDENTS CAN BE TRIGGERED DUE TO BLINDING INTERIOR LIGHT DUE TO THE APPLE MAPS (THROUGH CARPLAY) NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS IS CLEARLY AN ERROR, OR POOR DESIGN BY APPLE/HONDA. I BELIEVE THAT CARPLAY'S NAVIGATION FUNCTION IS A DANGER TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC BECAUSE HAVING HUGE AMOUNTS OF SUDDEN BRIGHTNESS CAUSES DISTRACTION AND MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH VISION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC EQUIPPED WITH HANKOOK KINERGY (NA) TIRES, SIZE: 215/55R16 (NA). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT AND DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TREAD SEPARATED AND CAUSED THE TIRE TO BLOW OUT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE NOT PROVIDED.

BLACK BOX HOLDING 3RD BRAKE LIGHT IS FALLING AND BLOCKING THE REAR VIEW . IT IS DOWN BY 3 INCHES AND THRE'S LIMITED VISIVILITY WHEN LOOKING AT THE REAR OF THE CAR AS THIS BOX IS BLOCKING THE VIEW. WEST COVINA NORM REEVES DON'T HAVE ANYMORE OPTION TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAVE USED VELCRO AND TAPE AND DUE TO THE HOT WEATHER THIS 4X4X4X4 BLACK BOX IS A SAFETY HAZARD ESP. IN THE NIGHT WHERE YOU DONT HAVE FULL VIEW AT THE REAR OF THE CAR. NO OPTION TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT STILL WAITING FOR THE DEALER TO CONTACT ME IF THERES ANY SOLUTION. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR WHEN I BOUGHT IT WITH 26 MILES ON IT HONDA COUPE 2016.

DAILY MAYBE A FEW TIMES A DAY WHEN I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP THE CAR HESITATES FOR 1-3 SECONDS BEFORE THE THROTTLE RESPONDS. THIS IS POSSIBLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IF PULLING AWAY WHEN THERE IS A LIMITED OPENING TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION IT COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS. I'M WONDERING IF IT HAS TO DO WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION AS MY 2015 HONDA CIVIC WITH CVT ALSO HAD THIS ISSUE FROM TIME TO TIME. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS DAILY AND USUALLY IN THE MORNING ON A LEFT TURN ABOUT 3/4 MILE FROM MY HOME. USUALLY AT THE SAME CORNER DAILY IN THE MORNING BUT IT DOES HAPPEN AT OTHER TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND I THINK IT MAY BE MORE COMMON NOT LONG AFTER STARTING TO DRIVE AFTER HAVING BEEN SITTING FOR A BIT. I LOVE HONDA'S AND HAVE HAD MANY OF THEM BUT THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND RESOLVED!

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT CAME CAME LOOSE SHORTLY AFTER DRIVING THE CAR OFF THE DEALER LOT AND PERSISTED AFTER ATTEMPTING A FIX. DEALER REPLACED THE ADHESIVE AND IT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THIRD BRAKE LIGHT HOUSING LOOSE SEVERELY AFFECTS VISIBILITY THROUGH REAR WINDSHIELD. BRAKING AT NIGHT ILLUMINATES THE ENTIRE REAR WINDSHIELD AND SEVERELY OBSTRUCTS THE VIEW. DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE THAT REQUIRES A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE REAR INTERIOR BRAKE LIGHT COVER DETACHED AND OBSTRUCTED THE CONTACT'S VIEW. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE COVER NEEDED TO BE RE-ATTACHED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY WAS OBSTRUCTED BY THE REARVIEW MIRROR HOLDER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000. UPDATED 10/07/16*LJ *TR

REAR BRAKE LIGHT HANGS DOWN REAR WINDOW, COVERING ALMOST 50% VISIBILITY. WORSENED VISIBILITY AT NIGHT DUE TO THE WHOLE REAR WINDOW BEING LIT UP RED WHEN BRAKE IS APPLIED. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER, THEY CLAIM THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE, REFUSE TO OFFER ANY TYPE OF REMEDY FOR THE ISSUE.

I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2016 CIVIC 1.5T EX-L WITH 1,000 MILES AND A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. WE NOTICED THE ENGINE OIL ALL OVER OUR GARAGE. IT'S BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE, PROBABLY SINCE WE GOT IT, BUT WE DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL TODAY THAT THE OIL WAS COMING FROM OUR BRAND NEW CAR. AFTER OUR OWN INVESTIGATION, WE RULED OUT ALL OF OUR OTHER CARS AND TOOK IT INTO DEALERSHIP TODAY.

THIRD BRAKE COVER OFF, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT NOW CAN NOT BE PERMANENTLY REPAIRED, WHEN YOU DEPRESS THE BRAKE ENTIRE GLASS IS RED . WIPERS CAN NOT CLEAN THE WINDSCREEN .

1. VEHICLE ABOUT 10 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET SUDDENLY STOPPED AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON. TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP, FOUND ABS MODULATOR LEAKING. 2. ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER CAR WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT WOULD NOT START. TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS FAULTY.

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER WILL NOT STAY UP. THIS CAUSES A VISIBILITY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN RAIN, AS THE REFLECTION FROM THE RED LIGHT COVERS THE ENTIRE BACK WINDOW AND REFLECTS IN THE SIDE MIRRORS. YOU CANNOT SEE. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE TEMP IS HOT OR NOT. LEASED IN OHIO END OF JUNE AND WAS LIKE THAT THEN, AS WERE ALL COUPES ON LOT. DEALER SAID THEY COULD GLUE IN OHIO. CALLED ANOTHER DEALER HE SAID NOT TO DO THAT, WOULD VOID WARRANTY. CAR NOW WITH SON AT COLLEGE IN FLORIDA. CALLED DEALER THERE, KNEW NOTHING. THIS IS A HAZARD DRIVING AND I WANT IT DOCUMENTED, AS PRETTY MUCH ALL OTHER 2016 HONDA COUPE OWNERS DO, THAT IF THIS CAUSES AN ACCIDENT, THERE HAVE BEEN PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS AT HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENTS ABOUT. THERE IS A FORUM THAT HAS PAGES OF THE SAME COMPLAINT AND ATTEMPTED FIXES, BUT NONE WORK. IT EVEN STATES THAT SINCE JULY 2016 HONDA IS WORKING ON A FIX. THIS IS A DANGER AND NEEDS FIXED ASAP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE, WHICH CAUSED A RED GLARE THAT IMPAIRED THE CONTACT'S VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 500. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT THAT'S ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR WINDOW (I HAVE THE COUPE) HAS A COVER WHICH KEEPS THE LIGHT DIRECTED OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND ATTACHES TO THE WINDOW. THE GLUE HOLDING IT TO THE WINDOW ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH, SO THE COVER HANGS DOWN, BLOCKING SOME OF THE REAR WINDOW, REDUCING VISIBILITY. ALSO, AT NIGHT THE LIGHT ITSELF WASHES OUT THE REAR WINDOW, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT THE BACK AT ALL. THIS PROBLEM IS AFFECTING 100% OF THE 2016 COUPES THAT HAVE EVER BEEN OUT ON A WARM DAY (HEAT MELTS THE GLUE), AND HONDA ISN'T FIXING IT. THEY'VE BEEN STRINGING US ALONG FOR 5 MONTHS NOW, PROMISING A FIX IN "A MONTH" OR "A COUPLE WEEKS", WITH NO RESOLUTION. LAST I HEARD, THEY SAID ON NOVEMBER 7TH THAT IT WOULD BE RELEASED IN 8-12 WEEKS. IT FEELS LIKE THEIR PLAN IS TO JUST KEEP THIS UP UNTIL PEOPLE SUPER GLUE THE CASING TO THE WINDOW THEMSELVES OR DECIDE BADGERING HONDA ABOUT IT ISN'T WORTH IT ANYMORE. PLEASE MAKE THEM FIX THEIR PROBLEM.

VEHICLE HAS REPEATEDLY THROWN ERRORS WITH WARNINGS TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND HAVE IT INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAS ALREADY BEEN TO THE SHOP TWICE FOR THE PROBLEM. IN BOTH CASES HONDA INSTALLED AN UPDATED VSA MODULATOR THEY CLAIMED WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. IT HAS NOT. NOT THE LOCAL DEALER DOESN'T EVEN WANT TO SEE THE VEHICLE AS THEY TELL ME THEIR IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO FOR US. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE EMAILED HONDA CORPORATE TO HAVE A REGIONAL REP CONTACT US. IT HAS BEEN 4 DAYS SINCE. THEY SAY THE VEHICLE IS SAFE, BUT YET THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT THEY CANNOT CORRECT, AND MY CAR IS NOT ALONE. PLEASE LOOK AT THESE TWO SITES TO SEE EXAMPLES: HTTP://HONDACIVICPROBLEMS.COM AND HTTP://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/TPMS-ABS-BRAKE-SYSTEM-ACC-FREAK-OUT.1002/ EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. EACH TIME THE ERROR MESSAGES APPEAR AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE. EACH TIME THE WARNINGS INSTRUCT YOU NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. ERRORS INCLUDE: CMBS PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, TIRE PRESSURE LOW, AND CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM.

THE COVER FOR THE REVERSE LIGHT, REAR WINDOW, OF THE 2016 CIVIC HAS DROPPED AND AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TRYING TO GET AMERICAN HONDA TO CORRECT, STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE COVER CAN'T BE REMOVED AS THE REVERSE LIGHT IS TOO BRIGHT AND MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT THE REAR WINDOW AT NIGHT. DURING THE DAY, THE COVER OBSCURES OBJECTS/CARS IN THE REAR VIEW WINDOW.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN A SMALL PEBBLE HIT THE BOTTOM DRIVERS PORTION OF THE WINDSHIELD, THUS PUTTING A SMALL DING IN THE GLASS, HOWEVER WITHIN 4 HOURS I HAD A CRACK 28 INCHES LONG, I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES IN MY LIFE N HAVE HAD THINGS HIT MY WINDSHIELD AND IT NEVER CAUSED A CRACK. AFTER REVIEWING THE CONSUMERS AFFAIR WEB SITE I NOTICED THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE LIKE ME, AND EASILY CRACKED WINDSHIELD ON THERE 2016 CIVIC BEFORE THEY HAVE EVEN MADE THERE FIRST CAR PAYMENT, AND THE FACT THAT THERE ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER SO WHETHER IT OBSTRUCTS YOUR VIEW OR NOT YOU CAN'T EVEN GET A REPLACEMENT YET, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE CUT CORNERS IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THERE GLASS OR NOT BUT I BELIEVE THAT THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN MORE THEN A LITTLE PEBBLE BEFORE THEY CRACK LIKE THIS, AND I HOPE YOU GUYS INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS INJURED BECAUSE THE CRACK CAUSES A TYPE OF MAGNIFYING EFFECT WHEN U TRY TO SEE THRU IT WHILE DRIVING N IT DEFINITELY OBSTRUCTS YOUR VIEW

NEW HONDA CIVIC WINDSHIELD SUDDENLY CRACKED AND CONTINUES SPREADING. NO REPLACEMENTS AVAILABLE IN AMERICA.

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT COVER, ON REAR WINDOW, KEEPS FALLING DOWN ALLOWING A RED GLARE AT NIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SERVICE SHOP 5 TIMES FOR "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE LOW", AND "CHARGING SYSTEM FAILURE" WITH NO RESOLVE BY THE DEALERSHIP. THESE MESSAGES WERE ALL ON THE RADIO DISPLAY PRIOR TO TODAY TO WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE FALSE FLAGS. I AM NOT SURE HOW A "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" ANYWHERE ON A DASH IS A FALSE FLAG. THESE MESSAGES GENERALLY OCCURRED UPON STARTUP BUT MANY TIMES WHILE DRIVING. LAST NIGHT, ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WOULD NOT START UP AT THIS TIME.

HIGH BRAKELIGHT COVER WILL NOT REMAIN ATTACHED TO REAR WINDOW AND HANGS DOWN. THE VELCRO ATTACHING STRIPS PULL AWAY FROM THE GLASS IN HOT WEATHER. THE RESULT IS THAT REARWARD VISION IS REDUCED, AND AT NIGHT, APPLYING THE BRAKES WILL LIGHT UP THE ENTIRE REAR GLASS OBSTRUCTING OUTWARD VISION WHETHER VEHICLE IS MOVING OR NOT. PASSENGERS IN THE REAR SEAT WILL HAVE THE PLASTIC COVER HIT THEIR HEADS.

THE HOUSING THAT SURROUNDS THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IS NOT FULLY AFFIXED TO THE REAR INTERIOR WINDOW. THE HOUSING JUST BOUCES UP AND DOWN AND RED LIGHT FLOODS THE BACK WINDOW WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. THIS SITUATION MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF THE BACK WINDOW AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE/ALL BRAKES ARE LOCKED UP" APPEARED ON THE MESSAGE BOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE BRAKE CODE WAS RESET; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000.

THERE ARE THREE PROBLEMS I WANT TO COMPLAIN: 1) INFORMATION SCREEN FLICKERS FOR 10 MINUTES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE. I SENT IT TO DEALER SHOP, BUT THEY SAID THAT THEY NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM, AND HAD NO SOLUTION. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AT LEAST THREE TIMES PER WEEK IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. 2) INFORMATION SCREEN SHOWS SIX DIFFERENT WARNING MESSAGES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, INCLUDING ABS FAILURE, VSA FAILURE, LOW BATTERY LEVEL, COLLISION MITIGATION FAILURE, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE ETC. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE REASON THEY TOLD ME IS THAT THEY HAD ONE OF MY TIRES REPLACED ONE WEEK BEFORE AND TPMS HAD NOT BEEN RESET CORRECTLY. HOWEVER, WHY IT TOOK TWO WEEKS FOR THE SYSTEM TO GIVE THE WARNING MESSAGES INSTEAD OF RIGHT AFTER TIRE GOT CHANGED? 3) TPMS FAILED TO DETECT FLAT TIRE. I WAS DRIVING A CAR WITH ONE FLAT TIRE FOR 1 MILE, AND THE TPMS EVEN FAILED TO DETECT THE FLAT TIRE.

COMPUTER SYSTEM HAD A MAJOR MALFUNCTION, TRIGGERING 6 DIFFERENT WARNINGS, AND AN AUDIBLE MESSAGE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER AND PARK THE VEHICLE AND HAVE A DEALER INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GAS. MY FAMILY WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH THE CAR IN ACCESSORY MODE, LISTENING TO THE RADIO. AFTER FINISHING UP FUELING, ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATER, I RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE. I GOT IN, SHUT THE DOOR, PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PRESSED THE BUTTON TO START THE VEHICLE, PUT ON MY SEAT BELT, AND THEN SAW THE MESSAGES. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WITH THE CAR ON AND READING THE MESSAGES, A VOICE STARTED TO TALK AND TELL ME, TO STOP THE VEHICLE, PARK IT, AND HAVE A DEALER LOOK AT IT. THE 6 MESSAGES ON THE CENTER DISPLAY SAID VARIOUS THINGS. SUCH AS THEY WERE TITLED: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM THE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM CMBS PROBLEMS ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM TIRE PRESSURE LOW BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM THE ALARMING NUMBER OF PROBLEMS ABOUT THE BRAKE SYSTEM ALONE, TELLS ME THIS VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN. COMBINE THAT WITH THE AUDIABLE MESSAGE ABOUT PULLING OVER AND PARKING THE VEHICLE, NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND IS GOING TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS PROPERLY LOOKED AT. THE DEALER DID LOOK AT IT, AND SAID IT WAS THE VSA MODULATOR, AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, THERE IS CASE AFTER CASE OF THIS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM FOUND ONLINE. YET PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES, INCLUDING MINE ARE BEING SENT BACK ONTO THE ROAD IN THESE VEHICLES OF WHICH HONDA HAS NOT AND CANNOT PROVIDE A FIX FOR BECAUSE IT, ITSELF DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. ANY THEREFORE NO ONE KNOWS IF THEIR CAR IS CRYING WOLF, AND JUST WAITING TO KILL THEM. I DON'T WANT MY CAR IF I CAN'T TRUST IT. I JUST CAN"T WAGER MY FAMILIES LIVES ON THAT. THEY ARE WILLING TO TELL US TO DRIVE AROUND IN THE VEHICLE EVEN BEFORE THE FIRST REPAIR IS TRIED. THE ERRORS ARE RELATED TO BRAKES

I PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE WITH 29 MILES ON IT. I RECEIVED THE KEY, PAIRED A PHONE WITH BLUETOOTH, AND PUT IT IN DRIVE, THEN THE DASH LIT UP WITH FLASHING ERROR SIGNALS FOR ENGINE, TIRE PRESSURE, BRAKES. IT'S STILL IN THE SHOP.

My car’s steering has a problem since 3+ years. The steering veers on its own and moves to the other lane even when I am going straight. I have to bring it back to lane. I am driving since 20+ years and can simply say that is dangerous. At first I thought it was wheel alignment issue and took them to dealership. I had spent some money for that repair, but to my surprise the problem was still there the moment I drove out of the dealership after that repair. I was kind of shocked and upset that the problem still remained. I took them to local mechanics couple of times and did the wheel alignment but the problem still remained. I saw in the news about the Honda recall for the steering issue and when I checked if my car was in the recall list and again to my shock it is not there. This is big cover up for reputation but I think 2016 civic model is in that list of recall. Please look into this matter and take the necessary steps.

CAR DOORS WILL SOMETIMES REFUSE TO UNLOCK / ACKNOWLEDGE REMOTE CONTROL AFTER THE TRUNK IS CLOSED. THE CAR'S COMPUTER CRASHES. VIDEO OF ME EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=NNBIWHK2TBG IT'S DIFFICULT TO REPRO, BUT HERE ARE THE STEPS: 1. OPEN THE TRUNK. 2. CLOSE THE TRUNK 3. OBSERVE THAT BOTH TURN SIGNALS ARE SOLIDLY LIT 4. OBSERVE THAT THE CAR NO LONGER RESPONDS TO THE REMOTE. AT THIS POINT, THE ONLY WAY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR IS TO TAKE OUT THE EMERGENCY KEY - WHICH WILL THEN TRIGGER THE THEFT ALARM. LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS: 1. HTTP://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/HAD-TO-USE-THE-ACTUAL-KEY.1430/ 2. HTTP://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/CAR-POSSESSED-SOMETIMES-DOOR-DOES-NOT-OPEN-WITH-FOB.3829/

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD AT SPEED LIMIT ON CR 201 IN FLORIDA (WEST OF I-95 WHICH IS A SECONDARY, MAIN, PAVED ROAD) MY EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED AFTER I ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE BUTTON ON THE CONSOLE. MY VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND VEERED OFF THE ROAD TO THE RIGHT. ONCOMING TRAFFIC ALSO VEERED AWAY AND FOLLOWING TRAFFIC HAD TO USE EVASIVE MEASURES TO AVOID COLLISION. WHEN I BOUGHT MY NEW HONDA, I ASKED THE SALES REP IF THAT WAS AN ISSUE AND HE (RAY AT COGGIN HONDA) SAID "ABSOLUTELY NOT" AND EXPLAINED (PARAPHRASED) THAT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE IN PLACE TO ELIMINATE ANY PREMATURE OR ACCIDENTAL EMERGENCY ENGAGEMENT OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE IN GEAR AND WHILE DRIVING.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2016 HONDA CIVIC EX, FOUR DOOR. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK YESTERDAY MORNING AT 5 AM. I HAD APPROACHED APX 56 MPH AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING, ACROSS THE DASHBOARD SCREEN WAS A BLINKING RED STATING, BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. ! KEEP IN MIND, THIS VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW I HAVE LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT ! AT THE TIME OF THE SCREEN ON THE DASH BLINKING WHAT SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN AN EMERGENCY BRAKE DEPLOYED AS I WAS DECELERATING CAUSING ME TO COME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY! LUCKY FOR ME THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME, BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE TURNED FATAL. I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO TRY AND RELAX. I TURNED THE CAR OFF. TURNED IT BACK ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS STILL BLINKING SAYING FAILURE. I TURNED IT OFF AGAIN AND BACK ON AND THE LIGHT HAD STOPPED BLINKING. I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE AND I DID, JUST THINKING IT WAS A FREAK THING. ON MY WAY INTO BOSTON, THE DASH LIT UP AGAIN WITH THE SAME MESSAGE. WHEN I WAS SAFE IN A PARKING LOT I CALLED HONDA AND HAD MY CAR TOWED, AT THIS POINT I NO LONGER FELT SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP IN BOSTON. AS OF YET, THEY HAVE NOT DECIDED WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. IF I GET UPDATES I WILL UPDATE THEM. THE LAST I HEARD IS THAT THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM MODULE HAD FAILED. HOW CAN THIS BE , WHEN THE CAR IS NEW ? HOW CAN I HAVE FAITH DRIVING MY VEHICLE , THAT THIS WON'T HAPPEN WHEN I AM IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK? DEALING WITH HONDA CORPORATE HAS BEEN AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE! FOUR HOURS WORTH OF PHONE CALLS FOR THEM TO SECURE ME IN A RENTAL SO I AM SAFE DRIVING. THIS IS CRAZY! I AM SADDENED. HOW CAN A BRAND NEW CAR HAVE A FAILURE WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM ?

THE CAR HAS COMPUTER SYSTEM HAS FAILED AND HONDA HAS TRIED A NUMBER OF TIMES TO FIX THE PROBLEM OVER A TWO YEAR SPAN BUT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO

The inside of the car smells like coolant and the air is making the front dashboard foggy. One area of the Central ac is blowing cooler than the other.

I CRANKED UP MY BRAND NEW HONDA AND A EMISSIONS SYSTEM ERROR DISPLAYED. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND DROVE IT TO THEM. IN RETROSPECT THAT WAS PROBABLY A BAD IDEA. MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COULD HAVE GLITCHED AND I COULD HAVE BEEN HURT. RODENTS ATE MY WIRING HARNESS THIS WEEKEND. AS PER THE SERVICE TECH AT MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP THE WIRING HARNESS AND SURROUNDING PIECES ARE MADE FROM A SOYBEAN DERIVATIVE. THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO IT BECAUSE ESSENTIALLY IT'S A PROTEIN PACK ON TIRES. THIS IS MY 7TH HONDA (PRELUDE SI, CIVIC SI, ACCORD EX, CIVIC DX, HONDA ATV, HONDA ATV) AND I'VE NEVER HAD ANY CRITTER EAT ANYTHING HONDA RELATED BEFORE. I STILL PARK IN THE SAME PLACE. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. MY ANGST IS THAT HONDA IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE PARTS NOT MAD FROM SOYBEANS. IF MY NEW HONDA HAD BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH SOMETHING LESS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY IS IS HIGHLY PROBABLE THIS LOSS WOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. THE THING THAT FRUSTRATES ME THE MOST IS THAT HONDA'S BRAND OF RODENT DETERRENT TAPE IS NOT PART OF ANY DEALER OPTION PACKAGE. THEREFORE I WASN'T OFFERED A CHANCE TO BUY THE $30 ROLL OF RODENT TAPE FROM THE HONDA PARTS DEPARTMENT. NOW I'M LOOKING AT OVER $1000 IN DAMAGE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED BY TAPE AND HONDA CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE WAY THEY REPAIR IT WILL NOT PREVENT IT FROM OCCURRING AGAIN. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CALL FOR 3 MONTHS. I'M EXTREMELY CONCERNED IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER $1000 REPAIR. DOES HONDA TRULY BELIEVE THAT USING THESE PARTS IS OKAY? DO THEY EXPECT ME TO PURCHASE AN 8TH HONDA AFTER DEALING WITH THIS MESS? I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED.

AFTER A SUDDEN STOP, SUCH AS STOPPING FOR A YELLOW LIGHT ABOUT TO TURN RED, THE CAR JERKS FORWARD AFTER REACHING 0 MPH. IT SEEMS TO BE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE REPORTED BY VARIOUS USERS ACROSS CIVIC COMMUNITY FORUMS.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AND HIT A BUMP THAT WAS COVERED WITH WATER DUE TO RAIN. DID NOT HIT THE FRONT BUMPER BUT HAD A SMALL DAMAGE IN THE UNDERCARRIAGE, WHICH CAUSED THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG TO DEPLOY AND SEVERELY INJURED THE DRIVER. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED UNDER CONDITIONS FOR WHICH THEY WERE NOT INTENDED TO DEPLOY ...UPDATED 10/19/17 *BF UPDATED 10/24/2017*JS

I PURCHASED A HONDA CIVIC LX ON 5-1-16, MY TEST DRIVE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES LONG AND I DID NOT EXPERIENCE ANY PAIN. MY DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP WAS APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES LONG. BY THE TIME I ARRIVED HOME MY ARMS AND LEGS WERE NUMB, I HAD PAIN IN MY SACRAL, LUMBAR, AND CERVICAL SPINE AREAS. I HAD JUST TRADED IN MY 2016 HONDA FIT PURCHASED O 3-3-16 AT A $4,000.00 DOLLAR LOSS DUE TO SEVER BACK PAIN AND EXTREMITY NUMBNESS WHILE DRIVING THE SALESMAN TOLD ME THE REASON THE HONDA FIT 2016 SEATS WERE SO BAD WAS DO TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE MADE IN MEXICO. I AM 5'3" AND I WEIGH 122 LB. I DO YOGA ALMOST EVERY DAY AND CONSIDER MYSELF PHYSICALLY FIT. I HAVE NO HISTORY OF BACK PAIN. THE SEAT BOTTOM IS SO LOW AND SHORT THAT I HAVE NOTHING UNDER MY THIGHS FOR SUPPORT AND THE ANGLE OF THE SEAT FLOOR IS SO SEVER THAT MY KNEES ARE UP BY THE STEERING WHEEL AND MY BUTTOCKS IS WAY DOWN CLOSE TO THE FLOOR. MY KNEES ARE CONSTANTLY HITTING THE CENTER CONSOLE AND DRIVER DOOR WHEN TURNING OR HITTING BUMPS IN THE ROAD. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CAR OWNER FOR MANY YEARS AND AM SHOCKED BY THIS DANGEROUS GEOMETRICAL ERROR IN ERGONOMICS THAT HONDA IS MARKETING. MY RESPONSE TIME COULD BE SEVERELY HINDERED DO TO THE HAZAROUS INTERIOR SET UP OF THIS 2016 CIVIC LX.

I BOUGHT A 2016 HONDA CIVIC LX SEDAN THE SEATS DO NOT HOLD MY BODY IN PLACE WHILE DRIVING LEFT KNEE HITS DRIVER DOOR WHEN TURNING RIGHT RIGHT KNEE HITS CONSOLE WHEN TURNING LEFT SHORT BOTTOM SEAT, THIGHS ARE UNSUPPORTED BACK OF SEAT HARD/PAINFUL ARMS AND LEGS GO NUMB WITHIN FIRST 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING

THE REAR THIRD BRAKE LIGHT HAS COME UNDONE, IT BOUNCES AROUND AND OBSTRUCTS THE REAR VIEW. IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN HOW SUCH A SMALL PART COULD BLOCK THE VIEW UNLESS YOU ENCOUNTER THIS FOR YOURSELF. THIS IS ESPECIALLY BAD ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SLIGHT DOWN GRADE WHERE IT CAN OBSTRUCT THE ENTIRE HIGHWAY BEHIND YOU. ONCE AGAIN, HARD TO EXPLAIN UNLESS YOU LIVE IN A HILLY AREA AND EXPERIENCE THIS. DURING THE NIGHT THE REAR WINDOW IS FLOODED WITH RED LIGHT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THERE IS AN ENTIRE WEBSITE RELATED TO JUST THIS ISSUE. 7/26/2016 - JUST GOT BACK FROM THE DEALER WHERE THEY "FIXED IT WITH ANOTHER PART" - THIS DIDN'T MAKE IT OUT OF THE PARKING LOT OF THE DEALER BEFORE IT WAS BOUNCING AROUND AGAIN - AMERICAN HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS CORRECTLY WITH A NEWLY DESIGNED PART.

BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. WHEN CAR IS STARTED, IT RANDOMLY MAKES A MECHANICAL GRINDING NOISE. IT IS GETTING WORSE WITH TIME AND BEGINNING TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN. I'VE TAKEN IT TO HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY HAVE EVEN REPLACED THE STARTER WITH NO SOLUTION. THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT AND TO WAIT FOR A RECALL. CAR IS BEGINNING TO IDLE HIGH AND JERK BACK AND FORTH WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC.
