2006 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. THE RECALL NOTIFICATION WAS ORIGINALLY SENT IN MAY 2016. THE MANUFACTURER STILL HAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. THE ONLINE INFORMATION SAYS THE INITIAL LETTER WILL BE FOLLOWED UP WITH A SECOND AND THAT THE REMEDY WAS EXPECTED IN LATE SUMMER/FALL. NO REMEDY IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, AND I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AIRBAG. *TR

BOUGHT A 2006 HONDA CIVIC WITH 54,000 MILES IN AUGUST OF 2016. ON A 6 HR TRIP TO OMAHA NEBRASKA THE ENGINE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT. PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND DISCOVERED THAT THE COOLANT WAS NEARLY EMPTY. WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A HONDA DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED AND LEAKING COOLANT. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY HONDA BUT THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED BY 7 MONTHS. CURRENTLY ON THE HOOK FOR $5200 BECAUSE OF HONDA'S KNOWN DEFECTIVE PART

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AT 10-YEARS, 4-MONTHS. HONDA WARRANTED THE ENGINES ORIGINALLY FOR 5-YEARS THEN EXTENDED BLOCK WARRANTY TO 8-YEARS AND FINALLY TO 10-YEARS. THE BLOCKS HAVE A MAJOR DEFECT WHERE THE BLOCK CRACKS BECAUSE THE BLOCK WALL IS TOO THIN ON THESE ALUMINUM BLOCKS AND MINE WAS NO DIFFERENT. MY BLOCK FAILURE CAME 4-MONTHS OUT OF SECOND EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD. HONDA SAYS THEY WILL NOT HONOR WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CAR IS 4-MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND HONDA CUSTOMER RELATIONS NUMBERS TO NO AVAIL. THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFECT AND HONDA HAS ADMITTED TO IT THAT'S WHY THEY PROVIDED WARRANTIES FOR THIS PROBLEM. SINCE MY CAR IS 10-YEARS OLD AND IS 4-MONTHS OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS COVERED REPAIR, I AM STUCK PAYING TO GET MY CAR ON THE ROAD AGAIN AT THE TUNE OF $5000 - $6000 AT LEAST. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA FOR THEIR STANCE ON THIS ISSUE WITH ME. IT'S BASICALLY MY BAD THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AT 10-YEARS, 4-MONTHS INSTEAD OF WITHIN THE 10-YEARS STATED ON THE WARRANTY. I DIDN'T EVEN RECEIVE A LETTER EXPLAINING THE WARRANTIES OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES. I THINK HONDA SHOULD STEP UP AND COVER THIS REPAIR ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PROBLEM IS THEIR FAULT IN THEIR MANUFACTURING OF THE BLOCKS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR MONTHS TO DETERMINE IF OUR CIVIC IF PART OF THIS RECALL OF TAKATA AIRBAGS. THE SAFE.GOV SITE SAYS OUR YEAR AND MAKE ARE PART IF THE RECALL, BUT THE SITE ALSO SAYS RECALL IS INCOMPLETE. WE HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM HONDA. I AM CONCERNED IF THIS IS PART OF THE RECALL. HOW CAN WE FIND OUT WITH CERTAINTY?
