2014 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

TAKATA RECALL - AS A YOUNG DRIVER, I BEING FRIGHTENED OF DRIVING SEEING A YOUNG GIRL KILLED IN A HONDA. HONDA FINANCIAL WAS PAID OFF BY ME IN REGARDS TO MY LOAN, AND THEY HAVE NOT WANTED ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME TO HELP ME WITH THIS SITUATION. I HAVE ENTERED MY VIN NUMBER INTO THE TAKATA RECALL DATABASE, AND MY MOM HAS HELPED ME BY MAKING SEVERAL PHONE CALLS, AND TAKATA REPRESENTATIVES TOOK MY VIN NUMBER FROM MY MOM, AND NEVER BOTHERED TO SEND THE INFORMATION IN WHAT THEY DESCRIBED AS "LONG FORM" - SO UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME I WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY ANYONE AFTER THEY REPEATEDLY SENT ME THE TAKATA AIRBAG SETTLEMENT DATES, AND MY MOM AND MYSELF HAVE TRIED TIRELESSLY TO GIVE THEM MY INFORMATION, AND YET NO RESPONSE FROM ANYONE!! TAKATA AIRBASGS WERE THE ONES TO SEND ME THE CLASS ACTION SUIT INFORMATION TELLING ME THAT MY CAR IS DANGEROUS, AND THEY HAVE NEVER BOTHERED TO MAKE ANY CONTACT WITH ME AT ALL. THE FACT IS THAT I DID NOT HAVE AN ACTUAL INCIDENT WITH THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER I AM REACHING OUT TO NOTIFY SOMEONE WHO CAN HELP ME, AS TAKATA, AND HONDA HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME WITH ALL OF THE INFORMATION I HAVE GIVEN THEM ON LINE. THIS, WHEN THEY INITIATED THE CLASS ACTION SUIT TO NOTIFY ME OF A SITUATION THAT COULD BE FATAL TO ME AS THE DRIVER OF MY VEHICLE, OR A PRECIOUS FAMILY MEMBER OR FRIEND SITTING IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT.

THE FRONT DRIVER TIRE HAD BEEN REPLACED TWICE IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THE FIRST TIME IT EXPLODED ON MY WIFE IN THE FREEWAY. THE SECOND TIME IT KEEPS GOING FLAT AND WE KEEP ON PUTTING AIR. THE TIRES ARE NEW AND WE ROTATE IT WHEN DUE. THE INTERESTING PART IS THAT IT ONLY HAPPENS ON THE LEFT DRIVER SIDE AND WHEN WE ROTATE IT, THE PROBLEM IS STILL ON THE SAME SPOT. THIS HAD BEEN A PROBLEM AND WE GOT THIS CAR NEW. HONDA STATES AI MEED AND ALIGNMENT WHEN I FIRST BROUGHT IT THERE FOR OIL CHANGE. CAR HAS 5000 MILES AND MY WIFE DRIVES IT.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT A SAFETY ISSUE WITH A VEHICLE. I AM NOT THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE THAT I AM REPORTING, BUT I WAS NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY A FIRE THAT THE VEHICLE CAUSED. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A PUBLIC PARKING GARAGE ON THE 1ST FLOOR. SEVERAL HOURS AFTER PARKING MY CAR, A BMW X5 PARKED NEXT TO MY VEHICLE. THE OWNER OF THE BMW LEFT THEIR VEHICLE AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. HOWEVER, WHILE THE OWNER WAS AWAY FROM THE CAR, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE. THE FIRE SPREAD TO 4 OTHER VEHICLES INCLUDING MY VEHICLE ' THE TWO VEHICLES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR AND TWO VEHICLES ON THE 2ND FLOOR OF THE PARKING GARAGE. MY VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AS A RESULT OF THIS FIRE. THE FIRE ENGULFED THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND COMPLETELY DAMAGED THE INTERIOR. WITH ALL THE DAMAGES THAT MY CAR SUSTAINED, IT IS NOT DRIVEABLE NOR IS IT REPAIRABLE. MY INSURANCE HAS A BETTER RECORD OF THE COMPLETE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. UPON, EXPLORING THIS ISSUE, I FOUND THAT THIS SPECIFIC BMW WAS LISTED AS AN AFFECTED VEHICLE FOR RECALL. NHTSA ISSUED SEVERAL RECALLS FOR PARTS OF THE VEHICLE THAT COULD CATCH FIRE EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN OPERATION. FOR EXAMPLE: REPORT RECEIPT DATE: 10-30-2017 NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 17V683000 MANUFACTURER: BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC CONSEQUENCE: AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAN CAUSE THE PARTS WITHIN THE PCV VALVE TO MELT, INCREASING THE RISK OF A FIRE, EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN USE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND BMW SHOULD BE MORE ATTENTIVE AND RESPONSIBLE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AS A RESULT OF THIS, I HAVE LOST MY CAR AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOUP THE RETAIL VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS INCREDIBLY UNFAIR AND BMW SHOULD BE DOING MORE TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE AND HELP THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN NEGATIVELY AFFECTED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

HE CAME UP BEHIND US HE TAILGATED US FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THEN WE GO TO PULL OVER OR MOVE OUT OF HIS WAY AND HE JUMPS IN FRONT OF US STOMPS ON HIS BRAKES BRAKE CHECKED US PULLS OUT AGAIN AFTER DRIVING FORWARD AND THEN DRIVES TO THE SIDE AND STARTED GOING OFF ON US SAY HE DOESN'T DO NOTHING HE CAN DO WHATEVER HE WANTS TO IT DOESN'T MATTER AND JARED AND DANGERING A BABY AND A PREGNANT WOMAN. I WAS REQUIRED TO SLAM ON THE BREAKS TO AVOID COLLISION WHICH ALSO CAUSED CAR BEHIND TO DO THE SAME. CALL VEHICLES IN MOTION. 104TH AND COLORADO.

TPMS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON REPEATEDLY AFTER TWO ATTEMPTS BY AN INDEPENDENT TIRE DEALER TO FIX. HONDA DEALER REPROGRAMMED TPMS SOFTWARE AND THE PROBLEM RECURS AFTER APPROXIMATELY TWO HUNDRED MILES OF DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE TIRE PRESSURE HAS BEEN VERIFIED TO BE NORMAL.

THIS COMPLAINT MAY SEEM PETTY TO SOME INDIVIDUALS BUT IT SERIOUS ISSUE. THE SEAT CAUSES SEVERE ISSUES WITH LOWER HIP AND BACK. I AM VERY ACTIVE YOUNG INDIVIDUAL AND STARTED EXPERIENCING PAIN PREVENTING ME FROM HARD PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. VISITED MULTIPLE DOCTORS, THERAPISTS, AND CHIROPRACTORS. I SHOULD BE BETTER BUT SITTING IN THE SEATS MAKES PAIN REAPPEAR. DRIVING THIS CAR IS A BIG PHYSICAL HEALTH DANGER AND SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY FROM HONDA.

HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING AT 6-10 MILES PER HOUR. ALSO, 16-20 MILES PER HOUR. PROBLEM OCCURS ON SLIGHT UPHILL BUT IS NOT ALL THE TIME.

TPMS DASHBOARD WARNING MESSAGE. AFTER EVERY SIX MILES THE SCREEN HAS A TPMS WARNING MESSAGE. TIRE PRESSURE IS CORRECT. ALIGNMENT IS CORRECT. AFTER RESETTING THE TPMS TO RECALIBRATE, THE MESSAGE TURNS ON AGAIN.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WHERE THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WAS COLLAPSED INCLUDING THE FRAME BEING BENT AFTER I REAR-ENDED A NISSAN ARMADA WHO BRAKED SUDDENLY IN FRONT OF ME. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, AND THE CAR WAS RENDERED TOTALED.

THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 40,000 MILES ON IT. THE DOOR LOCK SYSTEM HAS A MINE OF IT OWN. DOOR WILL UNLOCK DURING LEFT HAND TURNS, OR WHEN I PRESS ON THE INSIDE DOOR PANEL OF DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. I AM NOT TALKING A LOT OF PRESSURE, ONE FINGER PRESSING ON THE ARM REST OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE AND BEHIND THE ARM REST WILL OPEN THE LOCKS AND GENERATE A WARNING MESSAGE. MOST OF THE TIMES WHEN THIS OCCURS THE CAR IS IN MOTION, BUT I CAN DUPLICATE THE FAULT IF THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IN GEAR.
