2018 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

MY 2018 HONDA CIVIC IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND HAS AROUND 5,000 MILES. I DROVE 25 MINUTES TO PICK UP MY DAUGHTER. I PARKED ON A CITY STREET. IMMEDIATELY, AS I SHIFTED THE CAR INTO PARK, PEOPLE ON THE STREET STARTED SCREAMING AT ME TO GET OUT OF THE CAR BECAUSE IT WAS ON FIRE. THE UNDERNEATH OF THE CAR WAS ON FIRE. AS I WAITED FOR THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT, THE FIRE SPREAD TO THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR AND ENGULFED IT. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE FIRE WAS CAUSED BY SOMETHING MECHANICAL. THERE IS A POLICE REPORT BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN A COPY YET. I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES/PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR LEADING UP TO THE FIRE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I45 AT ABOUT 70MPH WHEN I HEARD A REALLY LOUD POP. CONFUSED, I WAS LOOKING IN ALL MY MIRRORS TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED, AS I KNEW I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING OR FEEL ANYTHING. I HEAR LOUD WIND NOISES, AND OPEN MY SUNROOF SHADE TO FIND 90 % OF MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED UP AND OUT ONTO THE FREEWAY. NOTHING HIT MY SUNROOF. I WASN'T DRIVING BEHIND ANYONE FOR AT LEAST A 1/4 MILE. I DIDN'T DRIVE UNDER AN OVERPASS. I WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LATE, SO NOTHING CAME FROM THE OTHER SIDE. IT JUST EXPLODED. THE GLASS REMAINING WAS ANGLED OUTWARD, NOT INSIDE MY CAR. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THE HONDA OF SPRING DEALERSHIP WILL NOT COVER IT UNDER MY WARRANTY. THIS IS A DEFECT/MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. THE SERVICE MANAGER EVEN TOLD ME THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME HE'S SEEN IT.... AND YOU DONT THINK ITS A PROBLEM?

I PURCHASED A 2018 BRAND NEW CIVIC. ONLY HAD 15 MILES ON IT. I ONLY HAVE HAD IT NOW FOR FOUR MONTHS AND I CAN VERY CONFIDENTLY SAY THIS CAR IS A LEMON. THE MOON ROOF QUIT WORKING. IT JUST STOPPED WORKING. TOOK IT TO AIKEN HONDA AND AFTER FOUR HOURS AND TWO MEN WORKING ON IT THEY TRIED TO SAY IT WAS A ROCK IN IT AND THEY PRODUCED ME A ROCK BIGGER THAN A FIFTY CENT PIECE. THERE'S NO WAY THAT GIANT ROCK WAS IN MY MOON ROOF. I WOULD OF SEEN IT WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT MYSELF. I THINK THEY JUST PICKED UP ONE OF THE RIVER ROCKS THAT ARE IN THEIR PARKING LOT PLANTERS. (THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE, IRONIC HUH? NOT TO ME BECAUSE THIS HONDA IS THE ONE WHO SOLD ME THIS LEMON ALONG WITH SCAMMING ME OUT OF 30,000. DO NOT SHOP HERE) SO THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE MOON ROOF. EVEN THO THEY MADE ME WITHOUT MY CONCENT PURCHASE 3 WARRANTYS (HAD NO CLUE)) ALSO THE MECHANICAL SEAT HAS SOME SORT OF DEFECT THAT IS KIND OF SCARY. IF YOU GO ALL THE WAY BACK AND LEAN ALL THE WAY BACK (AS TO NOT HIT THE AIRBAG AND NOT LAY DOWN) IT MAKES AN AWFUL DING NOISE IN THE SEAT THAT CAN BE FELT AS IF A GIANT SPRING IS POPPING UNDER THE SEAT CUSHION AND YOU CAN LITERALLY FEEL IT HIT HARD. AS IF IT MIGHT POP THRU THE SEAT INTO YOUR BUTT CHEEK... SCARED ME

EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM, CAR IS ACTING WEIRD AND GIVING A KICK BACK WHEN DRIVING

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD EASILY GETS CHIPPED AND CRACKED FROM KICKED UP DEBRIS FROM OTHER VEHICLES. DRIVING, I HAVE RECEIVED 3 CRACKS IN MY WINDSHIELD THAT HAVE SPLINTERED BADLY. THESE INCIDENTS HAPPEN DURING DRIVING ON A PAVED ROAD THAT HAS 2 LANES GOING THE SAME DIRECTION. DEBRIS WAS KICKED UP FROM OTHER VEHICLES DRIVING IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS IN THE PAST AND HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM OF THIS MAGNITUDE.

"I WAS PULLING INTO THE PARKING LOT, WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN! I PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE MAX AND IT KEPT ON GOING, OVER CEMENT STOPPERS, GRASS, AND FINALLY A TREE STOP IT FROM CONTINUING! AND I AM NOT A ZENIOR CITIZEN YET!"

2018 HONDA CIVIC HATCHBACK, GASOLINE SMELL IN CABIN OCCURRED ON 8/16/2019. 1.5L OIL DILUTION COULD BE CAUSE OF ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE'S STOP WARNING ALERT NOTIFIED THE DRIVER TO PULL OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SCOTT ROBINSON HONDA (20340 HAWTHORNE BLVD, TORRANCE, CA 90503) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE DEALER TURNED OFF THE SYSTEM SENSOR. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DCH GARDENA HONDA (15541 S WESTERN AVE, GARDENA, CA 90249, 301-660-7286) WHERE THE FAILURE INITIALLY COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. DURING THE THIRD TEST, WITH THE CONTACT IN THE VEHICLE, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT SPECIFIED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THEY WERE WAITING FOR HONDA'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO RESPOND. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09732156. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,200.

WHILE WASHING MY 2 DAY OLD CAR A CHUNK OF PAINT BLOWS OFF THE LOWER KICK PANEL. DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS MY FAULT AND THEY WEREN'T GOING TO PAY FOR IT. I TOLD THEM THEY COULD HAVE THE CAR BACK. SUDDENLY THEY WERE GOING TO REPAIR IT. THEY TOLD ME THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE PANEL. 2 DAYS AGO ALMOST EXACTLY 1 YEAR TO THE DAY,I WAS WASHING MY CAR AND IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE A CHUNK OF PAINT BLOWS OFF ( A BIT IRONIC). I WENT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER (CANT TRUST SUPERSTITION SPRINGS AFTER THEY LIED TO ME). I CALLED HONDA THEY SAID NO PROBLEM TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER. THE DEALER I TOOK IT TO SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR SINCE HONDA SAID THEY HAD PAID FOR THE FIX ONCE. NO WAY THEY REPLACED THE PANEL BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF IT EVER BEING REPLACED AND THE PAPER WORK I HAVE DOES NOT STATE THE PANEL WAS REPLACED. THEY DIDNT CHANGE THE PANEL, THEY SLAPPED SOME TOUCH UP ON IT AND SENT ME ON MY WAY.

ON THE 1ST OF JULY 2019. AFTER I START THE CAR IN THE MORNING, THEN I PUT IT INTO REVERSE GEAR TO BACK UP FROM THE PARKING SPACE. BUT THE BACKUP CAMERA TURNS THE PURPLE SCREEN.
