HONDA Complaints

2007 HONDA CR-V AUTO DOOR LOCKS FAULTY. LOCKS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED, EVEN WHILE DRIVING. HAZARD FOR CHILDREN IN BACK SEAT, POSSIBLE THEFT ISSUE AS WELL. *TT

CAR WAS MAKING SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN DRIVING BROUGHT CAR TO DEALERSHIP THEY STATE AT 7400 MILES FRONT BRAKES NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THEY SAY IT IS FROM AGGRESSIVE DRIVING THIS IS NUTS THEY WILL NO COVER REPLACEMENT OF PADS AND TELL ME IT IS FROM REAR BRAKES NOT BEING ADJUSTED. *TR

BATTERY LOW INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE DRIVE THE VEHICLE. *TR

I DRIVE A 2007 HONDA CIVIC, AND LATELY THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO MOVE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, AND LAST WEEK I NOTICED THE CASING NEAR THE ROD AROUND WHICH THE VISOR ROTATES CRACKING. TODAY THE VISOR CAME OFF COMPLETELY AND I REALIZE THAT THE TEETH SECURING THE VISOR TO THE ROD DON'T ROTATE AROUND THE ROD ANYMORE, FORCING THE PLASTIC IN THE VISOR TO WARP AND EVENTUALLY BREAK COMPLETELY. THIS CAUSES THE VISOR TO STAY COMPLETELY DOWN, BLOCKING MUCH OF THE FIELD OF VISION. AS THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, I'M SURE I'LL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PART. *TR

ON 6/30/08 I REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY, AND TODAY 5/17/11 I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THAT SINCE MY FIRST REPLACEMENT WAS COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY, I HAVE NO KIND OF MANUFACTURER WARRANTY ON THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. THEY ADVISED ME THAT IF I WOULD HAVE PAID FOR THE FIRST ONE AND NOT CLAIMED IT UNDER MY WARRANTY I WOULD STILL BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THEY GAVE ME A FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND NOW WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SITUATION. THEY KNEW ABOUT THE ISSUES WITH THE ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION AND FAILED TO TELL ME THAT THEY WERE PUTTING ANOTHER CRAPPY TRANSMISSION IN MY VEHICLE. THIS SHOULD BE UNLAWFUL. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 HONDA FIT WHICH HAS BEEN LEAKING WATER IN THE PASSENGER BACK FLOOR AREA FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. IT BEGAN OVER A YEAR AGO AND WAS SENT TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES. IT WAS ACCUMULATING OVER A 6 INCHES OF RAIN AND BECAME MOLDY AND SMELLED HORRIBLE. I EXPLAINED MY CONCERNS TO THE DEALERSHIP REGARDING THE LEAK AND MOLD HEALTH HAZARDS. ESPECIALLY HAVING MY NEWBORN IN THE CAR WITH ME. THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTED TO TAKE THE CAR APART.. THE LAST TIME IT WAS THERE WAS IN APRIL 2010 AND THEY ALLEGEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE NOT HAD A HUGE AMOUNT OF RAIN SINCE THEN (EXCEPT FOR ALOT OF SNOT). THE OTHER DAY AFTER A HUGE RAIN STORM I NOTICED A DISTINCT MILDEW SMELL. ONCE AGAIN THE FLOOR UNDERNEATH MY ALL WEATHER MATS WAS COMPLETELY SOAKED. (DIRECTLY UNDER MY 15 MO OLD'S CARSEAT.) I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN UNRELATED RECALL AND THEY SAID THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE. I AM AT MY WITS END AND CANNOT EXPOSE MY CHILD TO THIS MOLDY HEALTH HAZARD ANY LONGER. I AM LOOKING INTO MY RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER AND WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY AND THE SLIDING DOORS DO NOT LATCH PROPERLY, WHICH COULD OPEN WHILE DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN SITTING IN THE CAR. I GET AN AUDIBLE CHIME TELLING ME "A" DOOR IS AJAR, BUT NO WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH. WHEN I COME TO A STOP BY HITTING THE BREAKS I HEAR THE DOOR FINALLY CLOSE. THIS IS A VERY SCARY KNOWING THAT I COULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND MY DOORS COULD SLIDE OPEN AT ANYTIME. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES IN WHICH THEY HAVE REPLACED A FAILED DOOR LATCH AND TIGHTENED THE CHAIN AND THE PROBLEM STILL HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. I HAVE SEEN MANY ISSUES WITH THIS IN OTHER FORUMS AND I WONDER WHAT IT IS GOING TO TAKE FOR A RECALL TO BE ISSUED. *TR

I OWN A 2005 HONDA PILOT SINCE 2008 AND THIS CAR HAS 95,000 + MILEAGE. RECENTLY THE VSA LIGHT STARTED COMING ON. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO SEVERAL SHOP FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND THE CODES COMING UP IS NOT READABLE. I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH ON THIS AND DISCOVERED THAT SO MANY PEOPLE DO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. CAN YOU COMPEL HONDA TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE THE PROBLEMS GET OUT OF HANDS PLS? *TR

CAR WAS IN A FRONTAL COLLISION. THE BACKSEAT OF THE 2003 HONDA CIVIC CAUGHT FIRE UPON THE FRONT IMPACT. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT DETECT WHY OR HOW THE FIRE STARTED. *TR

I OWN A 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY. I HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS IN 2006 THAT ENDED IN THE DEALERSHIP REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. I HAD 53,000 MILES ON IT. LAST WEEK (1/3/11), THE 2ND TRANSMISSION FAILED. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ACCELERATING UP A HILL WHEN I LOST ALL FORWARD GEARS. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK. ALL OF MY FORWARD GEARS WERE GONE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THRU REMAINDER OF THE WAY IN REVERSE. I HAVE 95,000 ON THE VEHICLE. AMERICAN HONDA CORPORATION WILL TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM. I FEEL THE VEHICLE COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR WRECK IF I HAD BEEN ATTEMPTING A MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I AM VERY UPSET WITH THIS AND WANT NHTSA TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST HONDA. THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OF 2006 DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
