2007 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

HONDA CIVIC CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS. THEY HAVE NEVER ISSUED A RECALL, ONLY A SERVICE BULLETIN. MANY HONDA CUSTOMERS ARE EXPERIENCING THEIR MOTORS OVERHEATING DUE TO A FAULTY ENGINE AND CRACKING OCCURRING. THE ENGINE IS DEFECTIVE. MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC STARTED OVERHEATING IN 2018. I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO MONITOR THE COOLANT LEVEL BECAUSE IT KEEPS DECREASING AND I HAVE TO ADD MORE COOLANT. I HAVE COME TO CLOSE TO THE CAR OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING IT WHEN I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OFF THE ROAD TO ADD MORE FLUID. IT WAS DIAGNOSED YESTERDAY 1/25/19 BY A HONDA DEALER WITH A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA CORPORATE IS NOT GOING TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BECAUSE THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. SEE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 10-48. THE WARRANTY WAS ONLY ISSUED FOR THOSE OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM WITHIN THAT 10 YEAR PERIOD OF TIME. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. HONDA NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEFECT THAT THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED BUT ARE ONLY FIXING IT IF IT HAPPENS WITHIN A 10 YEAR PERIOD REGARDLESS IF THE MILES ARE LOW, AS IN MY VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE CAN RESULT IN A CAR FIRE FROM OVERHEATING, SO IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA IS IGNORING BY NOT DECLARING A RECALL. THIS IS AN ENGINE DEFECT THAT HONDA HAS FULLY ACKNOWLEDGED. A RECALL MUST BE DECLARED SO THAT OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES ARE PROTECTED FROM A POTENTIAL CAR FIRE FROM THE ENGINE OVERHEATING.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND LEAKED OUT COOLANT . REPAIR COSTS ARE MORE THAN THE CAR IS WORTH . HONDA WARRANTY WAS FOR 10 YEARS BECAUSE THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM OUR CAR IS 11 YEARS OLD

2007 HONDA CIVIC CRACK IN THE ENGINE LESS THAN 85,000 MILES ON IT AND TINA IN CORPORATE WANTS TO ACT LIKE ITS NO BIG DEAL TO PAY FOR A TOW AND PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS. BY THE WAY TINA SAID SHE WORKS IN CORPORATE AND KNOWS EVERYTHING BUT COULD NOT TELL ME IF HONDA WOULD HELP ME OUT IN THIS SITUATION.

CRACKED ENGINE CAR HAS LESS THAN 85,000 MILES ON IT. HONDA IS A JOKE THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR ANOTHER TOW AND THEN PAY FOR A CERTIFIED HONDA MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT. THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND COULD GIVE TWO [XXX]! PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

AT 110,000 MILES, MY CAR DEVELOPED A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. I WAS PARKED AND NOTICED COOLANT LEAKING FROM MY CAR. MY CAR WAS TOWED BY AAA TO KEYES HONDA AND DIAGNOSED. IT WAS FOUND THAT HONDA WAS AWARE OF THIS MAJOR DEFECT AND DID NOT INFORM CONSUMERS. INSTEAD, THEY QUIETLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BY ONE YEAR INSTEAD OF ISSUING A RECALL. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH, IT WAS FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. THE REPAIR COST IS $5-6000. AMERICAN HONDA WILL ONLY PAY A VERY SMALL PORTION, LEAVING THE BULK OF THE COST TO THE CONSUMER.

THE ENGINE IS CRACKED IN THE BACK AND LEAKING COOLANT. CAR ONLY HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT

STEAM BLURRED MY VISION WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AT LOW SPEED IN MY 2007 CIVIC FROM AN APPARENT CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK LEAKING COOLANT ON HOT ENGINE FROM A KNOWN MANUFACTURES DEFECT OF ENGINE BLOCKS PRODUCED IN THE FACTORY FOR THE YEARS 2006 TO 2009 CIVICS 1.8L ENGINE . THE BULLETIN # WAS 10 048 TSB. CAR IS OVER THE AGE CUTOFF FOR THE FREE NEW ENGINE FROM HINDA. SO I AM STUCK WITH AN UNSAFE BROKEN CAR FROM THE COMPANIES DEFECT PER HONDA CORP. REPRESENTATIVES.

THE VEHICLE UNPREDICTABLY LEAKED COOLANT AND THE ENGINE BLOCK IS NOW CRACKED. THE CAR IS USELESS. HAD TO TOW IT 100 MILES ONLY TO BE TOLD BY HONDA THAT THIS IS MY PROBLEM. IT IS NOW OUT OF THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL WHICH IS WHY HONDA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN OUTRIGHT RECALL - THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT DESPITE THEIR FAULTY MANUFACTURING.

TAKATA RECALL IT WAS AROUND 3:45 AM MY BROTHER WOKE ME UP SAID THERE WAS A LOUD CRASH OUTSIDE SO WE WENT OUTSIDE TO FIND MY NEIGHBOR PARKING AND I GO OVER TO SEE AND MY CAR WHICH WAS STATIONARY IN THE STREET, IT WAS SMASHED IN FROM THE FRONT, I CALLED THE COPS TO MAKE A REPORT. I BELIEVE MY NEIGHBOR WAS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SOMETHING AS I TRY TO TALK TO HER TO GET HER INSURANCE.

THE 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID HAS A TRANSMISSION THAT GRINDS WHEN IT SHIFTS GEARS AND HAS DELAYS IN IT'S SHIFTING FROM IT'S AUTO-STOP MODE TO DRIVE WHICH PRESENT A SAFETY PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM PERSISTS EVEN AFTER GETTING MY TRANSMISSION SERVICED AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WITH HONDA TRANSMISSION FLUID AS SPECIFIED
