I am the owner of a 2023 Honda Civic Sport equipped with a CVT transmission (Honda M-CVT). While the transmission has not yet failed outright, I am reporting a serious safety and consumer risk created by the design and business model surrounding these units. Honda CVTs are sealed, non-serviceable by design. Dealerships and third parties are unable to replace individual internal components or inspect wear inside the CVT without replacing the entire unit. The fact that Honda refuses to sell parts for these CVTs essentially makes them disposable powertrains. This creates a dangerous precedent ans owners cannot plan for long-term ownership or safety. CVTs in these cars often fail outside of warranty with no prior warning, and consumers are left without options other than full replacement, which many cannot afford. I am reporting this as a safety issue because when these CVTs degrade, they: Hesitate when accelerating from a stop (which has happened to me) Cause unpredictable power delivery Create unsafe situations during merging or turning Honda’s refusal to allow proactive service or repair (such as belt inspection or internal cleaning) forces owners to operate on faith, which is not acceptable for a mission-critical safety component like a transmission. This is compounded by the fact that these CVTs are installed across Honda’s most affordable trims, affecting working-class people disproportionately. Dealerships confirm no individual repair options exist. The issue is “normal” until failure. Transmission fluid changes are the only service allowed. Occasional hesitation and inconsistent acceleration. No dashboard warning lights have been triggered. This is a case of planned obsolescence leading to unavoidable safety risk. This design forces cars to enter the used market with a major mechanical failure already ticking down. This is a case of planned obsolescence leading to unavoidable safety risk.

When raining and I back up, the camera becomes covered with water and I am unable to see what is behind me. I also had my driver window shatter while I was driving for no apparent reason. This was very upsetting.

On over a dozen occasions my vehicle’s check engine light randomly comes on and then my car stalls out while driving and begins decelerating quickly. It is very dangerous and scary when this has happened on the freeway or in places where there is nowhere to pull off the road. My Honda Civic is less than 2 years old and has already been in the service department at Honda for a combined total of more than 30 days. Honda keeps trying to replace things but the issue keeps happening and they haven’t been able to properly diagnose or fix the problem. It is unsafe to drive this car and Honda has been unable to fix it. I bought this car brand new with 0 miles and the issues started early on before I reached 20,000 miles. I attached one of the most recent invoices from Honda where they noted the fuel injectors failing and codes of misfires in all cylinders. They most recently tried replacing the fuel injector but it still hasn’t fixed the problem. This car is unsafe to drive and has been in the shop multiple times for more than 30 days for the same issue that they can’t seem to fix.

I had checked in the Blue Book for resente repair in my used car It statement of previous repairs on the fron vender and tires. my concern is That it was not disclosure statement to me When I had asked they dealership sales person.. that they where a minor repairs caused by the previous owner hitting a rabbit.

I bought my car from Honda Civic on colerain avenue Cincinnati Ohio in 2023. In December 2024 I started having issue with my driver assistant technologies. My driver assistant technologies lights started flashing . As they were flashing none of my assistant technologies were working. When they finally went off it gave me a message to call the dealer. Which I did immediately. They told me to bring my vehicle in and they would check it. Service department calibrated the camera on the windshield. Picked my vehicle up about a month and a half after it happened again. Brought my vehicle in for the second time to the service department. Picked my [XXX] up for the second time. About a month and a half to two months and happen again. Vehicle in for the third time. They stated that it was a windshield that I had replaced by someone outside of Honda. They said I had to have my windshield replaced and also the camera by them. It cost me $1,000 for the windshield the camera was not charged to me. At this point it was like a guessing game. Picking my vehicle up for the third time. 2 months after picking it up the third time it did it again on [XXX]. I am looking for another Honda dealer to take it to to see if they could figure out what it's going on with that. I have all of my receipts. They can't seem to fix it at Honda Civic on colerain. I was told that if they couldn't fix that I would have to keep my vehicle as is. This is a safety hazard all I'm asking for is to have my vehicle and working condition. That is not happening.
