2017 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

HONDA CIVIC 2017 MODEL USES NEW COMPRESSOR TO GO WITH NEW REFRIGERANT AND SEEMS TO STOP WORKING WITHOUT ANY REASON. THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE DONE TO THE CAR TO STOP THE COMPRESSOR FROM WORKING, USUAL MAINTENANCE IS KEPT UP WITH THE CAR. THE CAR IS 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE COMPRESSOR FOR NO REASON.

THE A/C STOPPED WORKING AT 2 YEARS, 4 MONTHS, BUT AS I AM AT 41,000 MILES, IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I NOTICED IT WHEN DRIVING ON SATURDAY, 6/29/19 THAT THE A/C WAS NO LONGER BLOWING COLD AIR; THIS WAS ON A DAY WHERE THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS 99 IN NORTH CAROLINA. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATES THAT THE THERE ARE BAD SEALS ON THE COMPRESSOR. THEY HAVE QUOTED ME $2,100 TO REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR AND ADD FREON TO IT. I HAVE SEEN MANY HONDA OWNERS (2016-2017) COMPLAIN OF THIS ISSUE AND AM WONDERING IF THERE'S ANY WAY TO FORCE HONDA TO PAY FOR THESE BAD COMPRESSORS?

THERE IS A ROTTEN SMELL IN THE REAR TRUNK EVERY TIME WHEN/AFTER IT RAINS. FROM MY OBSERVATIONS, THE ODOR IS COMING FROM THE SPARE TIRE WELL, NOT THE TRUNK LINER. THE ODOR CAN BE REMOVED BY SPRAYING ODOR REMOVER AND HAVE IT VENTILATED. HOWEVER, THE NEXT TIME WHEN IT RAINS, THIS ODOR COMES BACK AGAIN. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS REPEATED ISSUE INDICATES WATER CLOGGED SOMEWHERE BENEATH THE SPARE TIME WELL.

PURCHASED 2017 HONDA CIVIC NEW FROM DEALERSHIP WITH STANDARD NEW CAR WARRANTY. AT 41,000 MILES AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. BROUGH VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD NEW COMPRESSOR WAS NEEDED AND REPAIR WOULD COST $986 + TAX. BOUGHT VEHICLE BECAUSE OF REPUTATION FOR RELIABILITY. SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND DEALERSHIP EVEN ADMITTED THAT THERE HAS BEEN A SEVERE PROBLEM WITH AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSORS FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MAKE VEHICLE. AFTER SEARCHING INTERNET FOR INFORMATION I CAME TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS TRUE AND WONDERED HOW MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WERE FACED WITH THE SAME TYPE REPAIR COSTING OVER $1,000? FILING THIS COMPLAINT SO THAT WORD GETS OUT AND SOMEONE CAN FINALLY HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE FOR SELLING A PRODUCT WITH A KNOWN DEFECTIVE COMPONENT

MY OILS IS BEING DILUTED BY FUEL STRONG ODER OF GAS FROM OIL. SHOWS THAT IT IS OVER FILLED . WHEN IT IS COLD OUT SIDE MY ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT IS STUTTERING AND IT STARTS TO CLICK UNDER ACCELERATION. MY CAR HAS ALREADY HAD FUEL RAIL AND INJECTORS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY FOR MISFIRING ISSUES AND MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY 50 MPH ROADS AND HAD TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT. EVERY HONDA DEALER I'VE BROUGHT IT TO SAYS THIS IS NORMAL AND WILL NOT ADMIT THAT MY OIL IS DILUTED. BUT I HEARD THEM SAYING HOW BAD THE OIL SMELL OF GAS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE FIVE TIMES, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED, INCLUDING FIVE "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM", "VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM", AND "ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PROBLEM" MESSAGES THAT APPEARED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON THE FREEWAY THE STEERING STICKS WHILE MAKING SMALL CORRECTIONS TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT IN THE LANE. ITS A CATCHY FEELING CAUSING ME TO OVERCOMPENSATE AFTER IT CATCHES/STICKS. ALSO WHEN SITTING STILL WAITING FOR A STOP LIGHT THE STEERING SEEMS TO JUMP A NOTCH BY ITSELF.

THE ISSUE I HAVE BEEN HAVING IS THE BRAKE ASSIST PROGRAM IS BREAKING WHEN THERE IS NO OBJECT AROUND CAUSING MY CAR TO BREAK FOR NO REASON THIS CAUSE QUICK USE OF THE BREAK ONE DAY ITS GONNA CAUSE SOMEONE TO REAR END ME I TOOK THIS TO HONDA THEY CANT FIND THE ISSUE THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 4 TIMES TO AND FROM WORK THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS WELL MY LANE DEPARTURE ASSIST HASNT WORK SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR TO MANY ISSUES TOOK CAR TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERS ALL THE DEALERS SAID THEY RESET THE SYSTEM NO ISSUES FOUND HONDA DOESNT CARE ABOUT SAFETY AT ALL. THESE ISSUES HAPPEN IN MOTION BOTH ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS

I WENT TO GO START MY VEHICLE AFTER LEAVING WORK AT 4 AM, 5/9/2019. UPON TRYING TO START MY VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF. I COULD NOT START THE VEHICLE. MY CAR'S LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING, WITH A WEIRD CLICKING NOISE BEING MADE. ON THE DASHBOARD, THE SYSTEM STARTED STATING "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM". "MANUAL BRAKE PROBLEM", "STABILITY PROBLEM", AND A COUPLE OTHER ERRORS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, AND UPON DOING RESEARCH, THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH 2016-2018 HONDA CIVICS. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS NOT ON, AND I HAVE NEVER USED THAT FEATURE. AT THE TIME OF THIS COMPLAINT, MY VEHICLE IS SITTING IN MY WORK'S FULL PARKING LOT, AND I AM STRANDED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. OCCASIONALLY, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) INDICATED A LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING; HOWEVER, THE TIRE WAS CORRECTLY INFLATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS FLAT, BUT THE WARNING INDICATOR NEVER ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO O'BRIEN HONDA OF BLOOMINGTON (1602 GENERAL ELECTRIC RD, BLOOMINGTON, IL 61704, (309) 663-9591) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIRE TREAD DEPTH WAS DIFFERENT ON BOTH TIRES, WHICH CAUSED THE TPMS TO MALFUNCTION. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO MANUALLY TURN OFF THE FEATURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09501888. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,400.
