2017 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel seized. Additionally, the parking brake warning light and the power steering assist warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V663000 (Steering). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000.

I started to wash my car and the paint on the roof between the windshield and sunroof started peel quite significantly. I showed my local Honda dealership and they told me to call American Honda Motor and they told me there is nothing they can do. I went to 5 different body shops in my area and they all have said that Honda should be covering the repair due to it being a manufacturing issue.

After the car has been drive for 20 minutes on the highway, I have a problem with my steering when keeping the car on center, the steering gets sticky and a jerking feeling when adjusting the steering that causes me to overreact in the opposite direction, this occurs with the slightest adjustment of the steering wheel, obvious only when driving on the highway.

Our car is a 2017 Honda Civic. We bought it new in November 2016. While driving, it came to our attention there was something wrong with the steering of the car. Steering feels too loose and at times it locks up. We took it in to be assessed and were told the steering gearbox needed to be replaced. The car went in for repair of the steering gearbox. Encountering costly power steering rack repairs should not be expected in a car with low mileage and age.

Unsure of when happened but cvt filler cap keeps blowing out for no reason causing transmission fluid to leak every where.

While driving the car the steering wheel sticks and you have to use more force to turn the wheel which causes you to overcorrect and it does not feel safe. The problem has not been confirmed by a dealer simply because I have read online articles seeing many other people have this problem. There were no warning lamps ever activated and the problem first occurred around 50,000 miles and has continued or even gotten worse since then.

Car was draining battery because it would turn on randomly. They replaced the ignition switch, which didn’t work, then the alarm would go off constantly so I took it back to dealership. They said the part is backordered and they have NO idea how long it will be. It has been nearly 2 months, and I NEED my car for work and my 3 kids. I understand this is a well known issue, and the 2018-2019 models were recalled. Dealer says the have several similar issues with the 2017 models. I got a Honda for reliability, but instead I have had the worst car issues of any I have driven.

One of the piston rods broke and went through the block. Oil had heavy odor of gasoline

Paint is completely flaking off down to the metal along the edges around the rear window on roof, driver quarter panel, and passenger quarter. It has been flaking for 2 years now. I bought the car in 2017 brand new.

The passenger side CVC axle is too short and everything that it calls for is 36 in and 1/8 the original is 38 and 5/16 it don't make no sense I've been talking to everyone
