2007 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

IN 2011 HONDA SETTLED A CLASS ACTION SUIT INVOLVING DEFECTIVE SUN VISORS. MY CAR HAD BOTH VISORS REPLACED IN, I BELIEVE, 2012. BOTH ARE CRACKED JUST AS THE ORIGINALS WERE. THE DANGER IS IN THE DRIVER SIDE DEFECTIVE SUN VISOR. IT CAN FLOP DOWN UNPREDICTABLY AND AND DISTRACT THE DRIVER. IF IT FLOPS DOWN HALFWAY, ITS EDGE IS AIMED AT MY FOREHEAD AND INJURE ME. THE ONLY INEXPENSIVE AND QUICK REPAIR IS A BINDER CLIP ATTACHED TO THE BROKEN PARTS TO HOLD THEM TOGETHER.

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY MY VIN IS NOT PART OF SAFETY RECALL.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC SI COUPE AT APPROXIMATELY 10-20MPH. WITHOUT WARNING MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED (2 AIRBAGS IN TOTAL). THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WAS LOUD, SHOCKED ME, AND FILLED MY CAR WITH SMOKE. I INITIALLY THOUGHT I WAS HIT; HOWEVER NO CARS WERE ON MY PASSENGER SIDE OR ABLE TO HIT ME. I PULLED OVER AND THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO MY CAR (OTHER THAN THE INSIDE WHERE THE AIRBAGS NOW DEPLOYED). MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS NOT ON PRIOR TO DEPLOYMENT. THERE WAS NO SORT OF IMPACT AND ABSOLUTELY NO INDICATION/REASON THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING ON MY PASSENGER SIDE, THEY COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. IF THE DRIVER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED AND/OR POSSIBLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND VERY CONCERNING MALFUNCTION THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A LOT WORSE.

THE REAR AXLE HAS BEEN MAKING A LOUD HUMMING NOISE AT SPEEDS OF (50-55 MPH). TIRES ARE VERY BADLY CUPPED IN THE REAR, DESPITE BEING RELATIVELY NEW. CUPPED TIRES CAUSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN DRIVING. THE CAR SEEMS UNSTABLE ON TIGHT TURNS, AS WELL AS HIGH SPEEDS. TIRE CUPPING HAPPENED DESPITE HAVING NEW TIRES AND A WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE WHEN THEY WERE PUT IN. THIS IS A PROBLEM OF EVERY HONDA CIVIC 06-08 OWNER I HAVE ENCOUNTERED, AND THERE IS PLENTY OF EVIDENCE ON ONLINE FORUMS TO CONFIRM THIS INFORMATION. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THE REAR CAMBER ARMS OF THE CIVIC 07, AS THEY CAUSE DANGEROUS PREMATURE TIRE WEAR THAT MAY CAUSE, OR IN THE LEAST CONTRIBUTE TO, INJURY OR DEATH.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE SEAT BELT DEPLOYED AND LOCKED UP ON ME AND I WASN'T IN A CRASH. I HAD ALREADY HAD IT REPLACED (PAID ABOUT $700) AND IT LOCKED UP (DEPLOYED) AGAIN WITHOUT A CRASH. HONDA REFUSES TO COVER IT. ONE HONDA DEALER HAD ME DRIVE TO ANOTHER (WITHOUT A WORKING SEAT BELT) AND NEITHER DEALER WILL COVER IT AND HONDA CORPORATE SAID IT WILL NOT BE COVERED.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION MAKING GRINDING NOISE . ITS HARD TO SHIFT IN TO 2ND AND 3RD GEAR . ITS REALLY DANGEROUS WHEN YOUR IN TRAFFIC AND UNABLE TO SHIFT GEAR . BIG CHANCES OF CRASH.

THIS IS RELATED TO SUSPENSION...THREE ISSUE I HAVE OBSERVED 1. THE TIRES ON MY CIVIC 2007 HAVE UNEVEN WEAR...I CHANGED MY TIRES ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND COULD SEE THE UNEVEN WEAR ON THE OLD TIRED..THAT TIME I IGNORED IT ASSUMING IT TO BE AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE...HOWEVER THE NEW TIRES ARE ALSO WEARING OUT UNEVENLY AND THAT AFTER AFTER PROPER ALIGNMENT. THE LAST TIME I GOT TIRES ROTATED THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED THERE IS LIKELY SOME FAULTY SUSPENSION. NOW I FIRMLY BELIEVE IT. 2. I HEAR A POP/CLUNCKING SOUND WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS. 3. I HEAR A CLICK/POP SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT WHEELS WHEN TURNING.
