2015 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

CLUTCH MAKES A METAL GRINDING NOISE WHEN RELEASING FROM A STOP TO START MOVING FORWARD IN 1ST GEAR. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CLUTCH SPRING.

I JUST PURCHASED THIS HONDA CERTIFIED USED CAR ON MAY 7, 2018. AFTER I STARTED IT IN MY DARK GARAGE THE NEXT MORNING, I NOTICED THAT TO THE RIGHT OF THE CLOCK WAS A WHITE "PASSENGER AIRBAG" NOTICE THAT WAS ON AND REMAINED ON. I HADN'T NOTICED IT IN THE BRIGHT SUNLIGHT THE DAY BEFORE WHEN I DROVE THE CAR HOME FOR THE FIRST TIME. I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND STARTED IT AGAIN. THAT NOTICE CAME ON RIGHT AWAY FOLLOWED WITH WITH A LARGER, AMBER-COLORED "OFF" SIGN UNDER IT. THIS OFF SIGN WENT AWAY AFTER A FEW SECONDS, BUT THE WHITE "PASSENGER AIRBAG" NOTICE STAYS ON ALL THE TIME THAT I DRIVE THE CAR, AND EVERY TIME THAT I HAVE DRIVEN IT. I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING ON OR NEAR THE PASSENGER SEAT. I CALLED THE DEALER AND SOMEONE IN SERVICE TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN. I CHECKED MY OWNER'S MANUAL ON PAGES 8-11 BUT THE INFORMATION THERE ABOUT THE AIRBAG WAS DISCUSSION ABOUT THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" INDICATOR AS THOUGH IT WAS ONE LIGHT, WHEREAS ON MY CAR IT IS TWO LIGHTS...THE WHITE "PASSENGER AIRBAG" LIGHT THAT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME, AND THE AMBER "OFF" LIGHT THAT IS ONLY ON FOR A FEW SECONDS. I CHECKED THE INTERNET AND FOUND SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS AND IT DIDN'T SEEM TO BE NORMAL FOR IT TO STAY ON ALL THE TIME. WHEN I GOT TO THE HONDA WEST, LAS VEGAS, SERVICE DEPARTMENT THE MORNING OF MAY 9, 2018, I SHOWED THE SERVICE REP WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND HE TOLD ME THAT HIS OLDER HONDA HAD DONE EXACTLY THE SAME THING, AND IT WAS NORMAL. I ASKED HIM TO SIT IN MY PASSENGER SEAT (WHILE THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING) AND THE WHITE "PASSENGER AIRBAG" LIGHT REMAIN ON. I DON'T KNOW IF I'M GETTING THE CORRECT INFORMATION FROM THIS SERVICE GUY. I TRIED TO FIND A WAY TO CONTACT HONDA USA TO ASK THEM, BUT I COULDN'T FIND A WAY TO DO SO. SO CONTACTING YOU SEEMS TO BE THE ONLY WAY TO HOPEFULLY GET THIS RESOLVED. THE WEIGHT SENSORS ON THE SEAT SEEM TO BE TRICKY AND I DON'T KNOW IF MY PASSENGER AIRBAG IS O.K.

I AM HAVING TO GET A ALIGNMENT ON MY VEHICLE ONCE A MONTH BECAUSE THE REAR END KEEPS FALLING OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND YOU CAN FEEL IT AT 70MPH....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTOPARK HONDA (3630 OLD RALEIGH RD, CARY, NC 27511) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIR COST. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V574000 (POWER TRAIN). THE CONTACT WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED REPLACEMENT DUE TO A BENT CRANKSHAFT AND THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE ENGINE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

3 INCIDENTS OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION - EACH TIME I WAS TURNING LEFT INTO A PARKING SPACE SLOWLY WHEN THE ENGINE REV'D AND THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD. THE 3RD INCIDENT ENDED WITH MY CAR SPEEDING THROUGH A PLATE GLASS WINDOW. THE DEALERSHIP ASSUMES THAT I HIT THE ACCELERATOR INSTEAD OF THE BRAKE. I DEFINITELY DID NOT. I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND WAS GLIDING INTO THE PARKING SPOT. WHEN THE CAR SPED UP. THE BRAKE FAILED TO STOP IT.

I HAVE NOTICED A TRANSMISSION FLAW WHEN SHIFTING IT DON'T WANNA FULLY ENGAGE INTO THE GEAR AND I HEAR A TICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE MOTOR

I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR 6 MONTHS AND I HAVE HAD TO GET IT ALIGNED EVERY MONTH BECAUSE THE REAR END WILL NOT STAY ALIGNED WHICH IS COASTING A BUNCH OF MONEY I WOULD LIKE TO GET A INVESTIGATION STARTED ON THIS BECAUSE IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK 3 TIMES
