2007 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

WIPERS DO NOT PARK WHEN TURNED OFF AFTER USE IN THE APPROPRIATE SPOT. THEY CONTINUE TO RUN FOR SEVERAL MORE CYCLES UNTIL THEY PARK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHILD. THIS CAUSES A VIEW OBSTRUCTION WHILE DRIVING AND ULTIMATELY DISTRACTS THE DRIVER. THE WIPERS HAVE TO BE TUNRED ON AND OFF NUMEROUS TIMES SO THAT THE WIPERS END UP IN THE CORRECT POSITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD. ALSO THE CONTINUOUS RUNNING OF THE WIPERS WHEN THE WINDOW IS DRY RESULTS IN FREQUENT REPLACEMENT OF THE WIPER BLADES IN ORDER TO PREVENT SCRATCHING ON THE WINDSHIELD BY THE WORN OUT RUBBER INSERT. I BELIEVE THIS IS CAUSED BY THE WIPER MOTOR MALFUNCTIONING.

TAKATA RECALL- IT HAS BEEN 60+ DAYS SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED AND HONDA TELLS ME THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN PARTS WILL BE IN. THEY HAVE FAILED TO ASSIGN ME A CASE MANAGER TO REVIEW MY RENTAL REQUEST IN A TIMELY MANNER. WE HAVE 4 PASSENGERS DAILY IN THIS CAR (2 ADULTS IN FRONT, 2 SMALL CHILDREN IN LARGE CAR SEATS IN THE BACK). WE CANNOT TRAVEL SAFELY AS THIS IS OUR ONLY CAR. WE CANNOT SIMPLY AVOID HAVING SOMEONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WE NEED A RENTAL WHICH HONDA SAID THEY WILL PROVIDE IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION BUT THEY HAVE NOT TIMELY ASSIGNED US A CASE MANAGER TO REVIEW OUR REQUEST. THEY HAVE ADMITTED NO ETA ON THE PARTS. THEY TOLD US WE CAN RENT OUR OWN CAR, BUT WE CAN'T AFFORD THAT WITH NO END DATE IN SIGHT. THEY STATED WE ARE NOT AS IMPORTANT AS THE DRIVER SIDE RECALL. THEY HAVE NOT REMEDIED THE DEFECT IN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME. I HAVE MADE A REPAIR APPOINTMENT BUT NO ETA ON PARTS. PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PANIC ATTACKS AND HAVE NEEDED MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR THE ANXIETY THIS HAS CAUSED IN MY DAILY LIFE, FOR THE PAST 2 MONTHS. THANK YOU. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED, THE AIR BAGS INDEPENDENTLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING OR IMPACT. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND STRUCK A GUARDRAIL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THERE WAS ONE INJURY THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BROKE IN JULY 2015 ALONG THE JOINT WHERE THE ROD RUNS THROUGH IT. HAD GONE TO A FRIEND'S HOUSE, AND WHEN I WENT BACK OUT TO MY CAR, THE SUN VISOR WAS BROKEN. NOTHING ELSE HAD HAPPENED TO THE CAR; JUST THE BROKEN SUN VISOR. SUN VISOR NOW CONSTANTLY HANGS DOWN VERTICALLY, OBSTRUCTING VIEW. ONLY TEMPORARY SOLUTION IS PUSHING THE VISOR TO THE SIDE, BUT THAT OBSTRUCTS THE VIEW OF TRAFFIC ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. PROBLEM OCCURRED ABOUT ONE YEAR OUTSIDE HONDA'S EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE VISOR. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO.

TAKATA RECALL RECALL SPECIFICALLY STATES "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." WHEN I CONTACTED HONDA THEY SAID IT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS BEFORE THE PARTS WERE IN AND THE REPAIR COULD BE PERFORMED. WHEN I REQUESTED ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION UNTIL THE REPAIR COULD BE PERFORMED, SINCE I HAVE PASSENGERS IN MY CAR THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME, I WAS TOLD THAT HONDA IS NOT COVERING A LOANER CAR AS PART OF THE RECALL

2007 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO CONCERNS WITH REPLACEMENT PARTS DELAY TO REPAIR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG RECALL. *SMD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IMA BATTERY FAILED, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOW TO ACCELERATE, AND THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. IN ADDITION, THE IMA WARNING LIGHT FLASHED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT DIMMED. ONE MECHANIC PROVIDED TESTING AND A SECOND MECHANIC ALSO INSPECTED AND DIAGNOSED THE FAILURES, BUT WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A REPAIR SOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

PURCHASED 2007 HONDA CIVIC NEW. HAD ISSUE WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ON 2008. HAD DEALER FIX. LIGHT CAME ON 2009. HAD DEALER FIX. LIGHT CAME BACK ON 2010. NOW VEHICLE WARRANTY PERIOD EXPIRED. DID NOT WORRY BECAUSE PASSENGER SIDE AIR ONLY AND MY SON DRIVE MOSTLY BY HIMSELF. LIGHT HAVE BEEN ON EVER SINCE. BROUGHT CAR BACK TO DEALER FOR RECALL OF AIRBAGS 7/2016. HAD DEALER LOOK AT SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT AGAIN. THEY TELL ME THE I HAD A FAULTY FLOOR HARNESS AND ALL MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT WORK AND COST OF REPAIR AFTER DISCOUNT TO BE $1600. I CALL AMERICAN HONDA ON 8/1 TO SEE IF THEY WILL COVER COST OF REPAIR. THEY DID NOT. BASE ON MY RESEARCH, I FEEL THIS IS VERY UNFAIR. 2007 HONDA CIVIC HAVE THIS PROBLEM SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ISSUE CODE 32-10. I THINK MY CAR FAULTY HARNESS ISSUE WAS THERE WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW AND IT CAUSE SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT TO COME ON CONSTANTLY AND WHY THE REPAIR NEVER LASTED MORE THAN A FEW MONTHS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SAME AS WITH THE SEAT BELT AND AMERICAN HONDA SHOULD COVER COST OF REPAIR. AMERICAN HONDA HAS SERVICE NOTICE CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE HONDA CIVIC ONLY. MY MILEAGE IS 85080 AT THIS TIME.
