2016 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

STEERING BECOMES JERKY AND TENDS TO STICK AFTER DRIVING AROUND FOR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES. RATHER THAN A SMOOTH TURN OF THE STEERING WHEEL IT REQUIRES A BIT EXTRA FORCE TO FREE UP THE STEER WHEEL TO MAKE EVEN MINOR ADJUSTMENTS. DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS TO MAKE A MINOR ADJUSTMENT TO STAY IN MY LANE REQUIRES A BIT OF EXTRA FORCE TO FREE UP THE "STUCK" STEERING WHEEL BEFORE I MAKE THE MINOR ADJUSTMENT, BUT TO MAKE THE MINOR ADJUSTMENT THE EXTRA FORCE REQUIRED TO FREE UP THE STUCK STEERING WHEEL SOMETIMES CAUSES A MAJOR ADJUSTMENT LIKE DRIFTING INTO ANOTHER LANE. I'VE DETERMINED THAT THIS NORMALLY OCCURS AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR 20-30 MINUTES AND AT HIGHER AMBIENT TEMPERATURES OUTSIDE. HAPPENS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AS WELL AS JUST DRIVING AROUND TOWN. WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED IN JANUARY OF 2020, THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS NOW.

THE A/C COMPRESSOR IS BROKEN DUE TO THE FAULTY CONDENSORS THAT HAVE NOW BEEN RECALLED. HONDA IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THIS AND IS KNOWINGLY ALLOWING FREON TO BE LEAKED OUT INTO THE ATMOSPHERE ON ALL THESE FAULTY CIVICS.

MY CAR AC IS BLOWING HOT AIR SINCE JANUARY 2019. MY CAR IS MAKING SOUND WHENEVER I TURN ON. FEBRUARY 28, 2020, MY CAR WAS SUDDENLY STOPPED WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY.

MY STATIONARY CAR WAS PARKED ON A FLAT SURFACE IN THE GARAGE. I WENT INSIDE WHEN MY NEIGHBOR INFORMED ME THAT THE CAR HAD BACKED OUT OF MY GARAGE AND ROLLED DOWN THE HILL INTO MY NEIGHBORS DRIVEWAY, HITTING THEIR CAR. NO ONE WAS IN THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THE STEERING FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXTRA EFFORT WAS NEEDED WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 53,651.

ELECTRONIC STEERING BOX FAILURE CAUSING STEERING TO STICK AND VEER LEFT AND RIGHT WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE.

A/C NOT WORKING. JUST HIT 3 YEARS AND 50,000 MILES AND NOW NO MORE COLD A/C. I TOOK CAR IN TO LOCAL DEALER AND THEY JUST TRIED TO SAY MY SYSTEM NEEDED RECHARGING AND HAD NO LEAKS. I TOLD THEM I WANTED MY CAR BACK BECAUSE I KNOW THEY, KNEW IF THIS ISSUE AND WAS JUST AVOIDING TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AT MY EXPENSE. A WHOLE $390 QUOTE TO RECHARGE. TOOK MY CAR TO LOCALE REPARIE SHOP AND GUY LOOKED AT MY FOR 5 MINUTES AND TOLD MY COMPRESSOR WAS BAD, AND HE'S HAD 5 OTHER PEOPLE COME IN WITH SAME ISSUE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING GETS STIFF AND WHEN YOU TURN STEERING WHEEL IT DARTS UNEXPECTEDLY TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT . THIS CAR IS A 2016 WITH ONLY 31000 MILES ON IT. I HOPE IT DOESN'T GET ANY WORSE BECAUSE IT'S NOT SAFE. N

I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 30 AT 70 MPH WHEN I HEARD A LARGE EXPLOSION. I PULLED OFF OF THE INTERSTATE TO CHECK MY TIRES AND FINALLY REALIZED THE SUNROOF EXPLODED. IT WAS NOT RAINING, THERE WAS NOT A DUMP TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME, I WAS NOT ON MY PHONE OR DISTRACTED, I WAS PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE ROAD AND THE SUNROOF EXPLODED OUT OF THE BLUE. THERE WAS NO POINT OF IMPACT BELOW THE GLASS INSERT, BUT THE ENTIRE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED INTO A MILLION PIECES.

I WAS DRIVING MY WIFE TO HER DOCTORS APPOINTMENT IN MELBOURNE FLORIDA. AFTER 20 MINUTES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS 55-65 MPH I NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL SEAMED TO BE STICKING IN THE NEUTRAL POSITION.IF I HAD TO CORRECT LEFT OR RIGHT I WOULD HAVE TO USE FORCE AND IT WOULD SNAP AND JUMP ABOUT AN INCH CAUSING ME TO WEAVE INTO THE NEXT LANE. I PULL OFF AT THE NEXT INTERSECTION TO CHECK MY TIRES AND COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. I NOTICED THAT AFTER I SLOWED DOWN TO LESS THAN 40 MPH THE STEERING WORKED FINE, I GOT BACK ON THE INTERSTATE GOT UP TO SPEED AND IT STARTED STICKING AGAIN.GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND TOOK BACK ROADS THE REST OF THE WAY THERE AND HOME. TOOK IT OUT THE NEXT DAY AND IT WOULD NOT DO IT BUT NOW AFRAID TO TAKE LONG TRIPS FOR FEAR OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT. CHECKED THE INTERNET AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND NO RECALL.WHY DOE'S SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE TO GET THINGS FIXED.
