I have a Civic Hybrid. It has been a great car. It's to bad the dealers mechanics are not well versed in their repair.I was trained as an automotive service tech and it is mainly the manufacture that fails to properly train techs in how to understand how their cars actually work. Then its the dealer and service dept. left hanging. (it's not just the auto industry.)

Do you drive a 2006 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
