2007 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V346000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 12/21/16 *LJ UPDATED 12/22/16.*JB

TAKATA RECALL - INITIAL LETTER DETAILING THE PROBLEM WAS RECEIVED MAY 23 2016 STATING THAT A REMEDY WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL 2016. AS OF 10/31/16 THE NHTSA WEBSITE STILL SHOWS REMEDY UNAVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE - I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD TO NOT USE THE FULL FUNCTION OF MY VEHICLE, SPECIFICALLY USING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. 5 MONTHS IS TOO LONG WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY SINCE I LIVE IN A HOT AND RELATIVELY HUMID CLIMATE.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED AN INITIAL LETTER ALERTING ME OF THE DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH THESE AIRBAGS. HOWEVER, I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL LETTER LETTING ME KNOW THAT I CAN NOW GET THIS PART FIXED. THE ONLINE VIN CHECK STILL SHOWS THAT THE REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE STILL, BUT IT IS TERRIFYING TO KEEP DRIVING AROUND KNOWING THAT PEOPLE HAVE DIED FROM THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V346000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED FOR THE RECALL REMEDY WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE PAINT STARTED TO PEEL AT ONLY 65,000 MILES, BACK IN 2015. THE CAR, AT THAT POINT, WAS 8 YEARS OLD. IT PEELED IN LITERALLY JUST A FEW MONTHS TIME. IT'S NOW PATCHY ON THE HOOD, ROOF AND TRUNK.

THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK OF MY VEHICLE CAUSING IT TO LEAK COOLANT, WHICH LED TO THE VEHICLE OVERHEATING. BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH MY CAR AND NOW NEED A NEW ENGINE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND IT CAME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENSION WARRANTY FOR CRACK BLOCKAGE IN THE ENGINE OF HONDA'S BETWEEN 2006-EARLY 2009. FOR THAT I TOOK MY CAR IN BUT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IS ONLY OFFERING TO PAY FOR THE CRACKED BLOCK AND NOT THE DAMAGE DONE DO TO THIS ISSUE. NO LIGHT CAME ON TO WARN THAT THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING, THEREFORE I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS AN ISSUE UNTIL I COULD SMELL IT.

AIR BAG LIGHT ON, DEALER DOESN'T HAVE PARTS, CAN'T DRIVE CAR HONDA CASE # 05125120, PROMISED CALL BACK FROM CASE MANAGER THAT NEVER HAPPENED. DO NOT HAVE ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION. AIR BAG LIGHT JUST STAYED ON ONE DAY, NO SPECIFIC CONDITION APPLIED.

TAKATA RECALL - HOW IS THERE STILL NO REMEDY/REPLACEMENT PART AVAILABLE? "AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT" IS NOT AN OPTION FOR ME. HONDA FINALLY ISSUED NOTICE IN JULY SAYING PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL.
