  TAKATA INFLATOR. HONDA SENT RECALL NOTICE ONE YEAR AGO BUT OPPORTUNITY TO REPAIR/REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE EVEN THOUGH THEY PROPOSED THAT IT WOULD BE BY 6-9 MONTHS. NO INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED.

• 12/30/2016· AIR BAGS

  TAKATA RECALL - MY COMPLAINT IS WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT IS TAKING FOR PARTS TO BECOME AVAILABLE TO REPAIR A HONDA CIVIC I PURCHASED FOR MY DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 INDICATING THAT THE 'REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016'. I ALSO WAS ADVISED I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED I WAS ADVISED: "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." AS OF TODAY, DECEMBER 30, 2016, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE 2ND LETTER. IT IS EXTREMELY STRESSFUL FOR A MOTHER TO HAVE HER CHILD SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SHE KNOWS THIS POSES A DANGER. HOWEVER, WHEN THE CAR IS USED FOR A SINGLE MOM WITH THREE CHILDREN, THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD COMPENSATE FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE CAR AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. THANK YOU FOR READING MY CONCERN. *TR

  MY 2011 HONDA CIVIC HAS A BLOWN ENGINE AFTER HAVING THE CAR LESS THAN 4 YEARS. UNFORTUNATELY PAST 60,000 MILE WARRANTY ON THE ENGINE, MY CAR WITH 63,000 MILES HAS A COMPLETELY BLOWN ENGINE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THIS IS NO LONGER COVERED AND THERE IS NOTHING HONDA CAN DO ABOUT. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS HONDA IS SUCH A LEMON AND HAVE NO FAITH IN BUYING A HONDA EVER AGAIN. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER STRUGGLING TO MAKE ENDS MEET AND NOW I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO FIND THE MONEY TO REPLACE AN ENGINE ON THIS CAR BECAUSE I STILL HAVE A FIVE YEAR LOAN TO PAY OFF ON IT. THE LAST HONDA I HAD WENT OVER 229,000 MILES ON THE ENGINE. WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO HONDA QUALITY? *JS

  I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH FRIDAY, 12/2 AND NEITHER MY AIRBAG OR SEAT BELT DID WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO. I ACCIDENTALLY REAR-ENDED SOMEONE ON THE HIGHWAY IN MODERATE TRAFFIC GOING APPROXIMATELY 20-25 MPH, AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, AND MY SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK, WHICH LED TO ME HITTING MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL.

• 12/04/2018· AIR BAGSCrash

  CAR LOST CONTROL ON THE ROAD AND MOVED OUTSIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAGS GOT DEPLOYED. WHEN THEY GOT DEPLOYED THE AIR BAGS DID NOT INFLATE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE HEAD TO BE HIT ON THE WINDOWS OF THE CAR PRETTY HARD. HOW COULD IT HAPPEN THAT THE AIR BAGS GOD DEPLOYED BUT NO AIR GOT INFLATED INTO THE AIRBAGS. THEY JUST FELL AS IF A CLOTH \ CURTAIN WAS COMING OUT WITHOUT INFLATING. ATTACHED PICTURES SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA.

  I LOVE MY HONDA CIVIC AND THIS IS THE 2ND ONE I'VE HAD, HOWEVER I HAVE ONE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE 2011, VISIBILITY AND BLIND SPOTS WHILE DRIVING. SITTING IN THE DRIVERS SEAT, THE PART BETWEEN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. I PULL UP TO STOP SIGN, AND ROAD LOOKS CLEAR, BUT WHEN I START TO PULL OUT, I JUST MISS A CAR OR TRUCK THAT WAS CAUGHT IN THAT ONE BLIND SPOT. HONDA SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS AND FIX THE DESIGN OF THIS AREA. *TR

• 11/24/2014· SERVICE BRAKES

  HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ENCOUNTERS WHERE I ALMOST HAVE CAR ACCIDENTS BECAUSE BRAKES WILL NOT GRAB. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I STOPPED GOING TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE BECAUSE EVERY TIME I TOOK IT TO GET CHECKED OUT THEY SAID IT WAS FUNCTIONING IN PERFECT CONDITION. I HAVE CHANGED MY BRAKES AND ROTORS AT LEAST 4 DIFFERENT TIMES EVEN AFTER I BOUGHT CERAMIC BRAKES AND HEAVY DUTY ROTORS, AND TIRES ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. UPON COMPLAINING TO HONDA'S CORPORATE OFFICE I WAS GIVEN A $200.00 GIFT CARD THAT PRETTY MUCH WENT RIGHT BACK FOR REPAIRS.JUST FROM 3 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP HAVE SPENT OVER $3,000.00 IN REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE FEES. THESE CARS MIGHT CONTAIN A FACTORY DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE. IF IT WASN'T FOR THE 22 YEARS EXPERIENCE OF DRIVING IN THE LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA AREA I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HAD MORE THAN ONE ACCIDENT ALREADY. *TR

  On August 9 while grandson was in route on I20 toward Birmingham, Al. to attend grandparent funeral, driver air bag exploded. He struggled to take a close next exit. He pulled car to side of road and ran away from car. He said it was full of smoke and small pieces. He feared the car was going to catch fire. His phone was dead and there was nothing off the exit so after smoke cleared and he felt safer, he drove car to my home and parked under carport. I called Sunny King Honda on Monday and they said that I had to contact American Honda. I was told they would send someone to inspect, but after many times calling, they said insurance needed to inspect. On October 1, Insurance looked at car and did car fax and found no reason for air bag to explode. They had already given me case number but finally a case manager, named Ilene, answered and said to take to dealership on October 24 for inspection and test. I spoke with guy at dealership and he said because car does not need to be driven, I could leave there and they would lock up. I have called again many times trying to find out when car will be fixed and she is not returning my calls. It has been 3 more weeks since dropping off at dealership. It is going on 4 months without car. This could have been a death complaint instead of needing repair. He was fortunate that his left arm was really red and no other harm. There was not a recall on his vin but common sense is air bag is for safety when hitting something to protect individual. Looking on line, there are other complaints with 2011 Civic. The car has been a great car but I am concerned about safety. I hoped American Honda would just repair car and make safe, but at this point, I am questioning.

  THE ORIGINAL DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WAS REPLACED IN 2014 DUE TO BREAKING APART ON THE PIVOTING SIDE AND NOW THE 2ND DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR IS BROKEN. THIS CAR IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND TWO DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISORS HAVE BROKEN DUE TO THE SAME DESIGN FLAW. NOW THE CAR NEEDS YET A 3RD DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR. THIS IS HIGHLY UNUSUAL AND IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW DUE TO NOT REMAINING IN THE NORMAL, STOWED POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN NEEDED TO BLOCK THE SUN ON A BRIGHT DAY IT DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE INTENDED DEPLOYED POSITION, BUT ONLY HANGS VERTICALLY WHICH IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD, NOT TO MENTION DISTRACTING THE DRIVER'S CONCENTRATION WHILE DRIVING. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MAY CAUSE A DRIVER TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY.

  ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED OF TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY, AS WELL AS ON STREETS, THE CAR SIMPLY SHUTS OFF. THIS OCCURS REGARDLESS OF THE LEVEL OF FUEL, EVEN WHEN IT IS FULL. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED AND MAINTAINED PER RECOMMENDATIONS BY HONDA. IT IS NOT A BATTERY ISSUE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE CAR IS ABLE TO START AGAIN. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN IT HAPPENS. MY DAUGHTER TOOK THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AT FIRST THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG SO THEY "RELEASED" IT BACK TO HER. UNFORTUNATELY, IT STALLED OUT AGAIN WHILE SHE DROVE IT SO SHE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAVE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE THE "STALL OUT"THEMSELVES BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE CAUSE. THEY HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH HONDA ENGINEERS TO INVESTIGATE, BUT IT IS UNCLEAR IF THEY HAVE RULED OUT A DEFECTIVE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, IGNITION PROBLEM,OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM OR OTHER ISSUE. THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR THREE WEEKS.
