2015 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

Our 2015 Honda Civic started reporting major malfunctions. Almost every error that was possible to report was coming on screen and the vehicle was stuck in "limp" mode and the speed was limited to 40mph. That night, we tried driving it to a mechanic when it suddenly could not accelerate anymore and died in the middle of a road. We are lucky that this happened on a less busy road as opposed to a busy road or highway where we could do nothing to get out of the way of traffic. But it was also a hazard that we were stuck late at night in the middle of nowhere. It had to be towed to a Honda dealer. The dealer then investigated the vehicle and found the issue. They diagnosed the issue as being a transmission failure. There was one recall issued for 2015 Honda Civics in the past and it was specifically for transmission failure issues. The dealer's findings are similar to the nature of the failure described in the previously issued recall. I believe it is possible the issue seen with our specific vehicle could be the same issue as was in the previous recall but our VIN number just happened to not fall in the range. That would make sense to me given that this vehicle is not that old and Civics are not known for having transmission failures at such a low mileage.

All light appeared on the dashboard and we took the vehicle in for inspection. We learned that the VSA Modulator had failed and was a safety risk as it controlled the brakes. This needs to be recalled as the soldering was not done correctly when originally manufactured and this particular part has failed on a high percentage of the hondas that come equipped with the modulator. Please look into recalling this as many drivers have experienced their brakes locking up while driving due to this modulator failing.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while making a left turn at a low rate of speed, the vehicle abruptly jerked forward and stalled as a loud banging sound emitted from the vehicle without warning. Due to the failure, the contact was forced to place the vehicle into neutral(N) and manually push the vehicle out of the intersection. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed with transmission failure. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V574000(Power Train) which was linked to the failure. The contact called two dealers (Braman Honda of Palm Beach and Delray Honda) and was informed by both dealer that the vehicle was not a part of the recall. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

Unknown The warning on my digital screen is off then comes back on after a few minutes of driving. It happens every time for the past week.

CVT Fill Plug Pops Out or Leaks. My car is 2015 Honda Civic. There is already a recall for Honda Civic 2016-18. I saw this issue yesterday April 6, 2024 and reported to Honda Dealership (Norm Reeves Honda, Fort Worth, Texas). Honda dealer mentioned this is a known problem. There were no warning lamps or symptoms.

The transmission abruptly failed while traveling down the interstate. With zero prior indications of an issue, drive train power was lost abruptly on all four tires. I was able to safely pull off to the shoulder with my hazards on and come to a stop. Two mechanics confirmed no other issues in the vehicle other than the transmission breaking for no known reason. They presume it is software related and do not recommend I replace the transmission. Therefore the car is totaled even though it is in perfect condition other than the transmission failure.

Cvt transmission failure which Honda is known for. I have a small child and this poses a risk to both as we were driving when it first happened. Honda needs to recall the cvt transmission and do right by its faithful customers and not charge $8000 to fix the problem.

I was driving my 2015 Honda Civic when it stopped working. Looking at other people comments and by Hondas own admission, there were problems known with the transmission on these vehicles. Mechanics dont even want to work on the transmissions in these cars. Last Honda I buy

Exterior paint is badly bubbling and peeling in multiple locations (around rear window, around rear license plate, top of trunk. I reported issue to the dealership when I took it in for service and they cannot/will not help to repair and cover the cost of repair. Yes, my car is available for inspection upon request.

Drive axle failure due to corrosion. Left front drive axle completely separated while in use! Fortunately I was only travelling at around 25mph because of how violently the severed ends banged around until the vehicle could be stopped. This would have been horrendous and likely caused severe damage and possibly a traffic accident had the vehicle been traveling at highway speeds. Severe corrosion is found at the point of failure under a molded rubber component that is fixed to the axle shaft. Vehicle had to be towed for repairs. The right axle has the same molded rubber component so as a precaution I've replaced it. I have retained both axles for future inspection.
