2016 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC ONLY HAS LESS THAN 25000 MILES, THE AC HAD NOT WORKING SINCE THIS SUMMER, AFTER I TOOK THE CAR TO SCHAUMBURG HONDA IN ILLIONIS, THEY SAID THE CONDENSER IS FIND BUT COMPRESSOR HAS A LEAK WHICH WILL COST OVER $1000 TO BE FIXED. I DECIDED NOT REPAIR BUT STILL WAS CHARGED $140 FOR THE INSPECTION. TOTALLY NOT ACCEPTABLE!

I BOUGHT A HONDA CIVIC 2016. I NOTICE THAT MY FRONT LED LIGHT MAKER DOES NOT WORK ONLY LEFT SIDE WORK AND IT IS ABOUT TO GO OUT TOO. SOMETIME IT GOES ON AS ITS PLEASE. AND AIR CONDITION DOES NOT BLOW COLD AIR . I HOPE THEY RECALL ALL THESE PROBLEMS..

I HAVE A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. AFTER 20 MINUTES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE STEERING WHEEL STIFFENS UP A LOT AND THE CAR STARTS DRIFTING LEFT OR RIGHT. THEREFORE, I HAVE TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION IT IS DRIFTING IN. THIS OCCURS EVERY COUPLE MINUTES. I HAVE TO ESSENTIALLY DRIVE IN A ZIG ZAG FORMATION TO STAY IN THE SAME LANE. AFTER GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND ONTO LOCAL ROADS, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS ON LOCAL ROADS BUT IS LESS FREQUENT THAN ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVING THIS MUCH DIFFICULTLY STEERING THE CAR IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND CAN LEAD TO CAR ACCIDENTS. AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY DETERMINED THAT THE STEERING RACK HAD TO BE REPLACED. SINCE THE WARRANTY PERIOD FOR THE CAR HAS ALREADY PASSED, THEY QUOTED ME OVER $3,000. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL BY HONDA ON THE 2017 AND 2018 CIVICS FOR THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS). BUT, THE EPS IN THE 2016 MODEL GETS OVERLOOKED. 2016 CIVIC DRIVERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SHELL OUT SO MUCH MONEY TO GET A CAR WITH A PROPERLY FUNCTION EPS.

I PURCHASED A 2016 HONDA CIVIC FOR MY SON IN 2016. I RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT AC PROBLEMS THIS YEAR. I CONTACTED MY SON AND ASKED HIM IF HE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE A/C. HE REPORTED THAT IT DOESN'T BLOW VERY MUCH AIR AND THE AIR NEVER GETS COLD. SO I HAD HIM TAKE TO DEALERSHIP. HE WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL FOR A/C AFFECTED ONLY ONE PART OF THE UNIT WHICH THEY COULD FIX UNDER NO COST...BUT THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A HUGE HOLE IN THE AIR COMPRESSOR AND THIS WAS NOT COVERED. THEY QUOTED OVER $2,000 TO REPLACE AIR COMPRESSOR. I FOUND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE AND RESEARCHED TO FIND OUT WHAT CAUSES A HOLE IN THE COMPRESSOR THAT MAKES IT BEYOND REPAIR AND THE ONLY INFORMATION I COULD FIND WERE OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 2016 HONDA CIVIC FAULTY AIR COMPRESSORS. AGAIN WHEN I TESTED IT MYSELF, IT WAS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR AND SOMETIMES NOT BLOWING AIR AT ALL. SINCE I PURCHASED VEHICLE, IT SEEMS LIKE SYSTEM WAS NOT FULLY CAPABLE OF DEFROSTING WINDOWS IN FRONT AND BACK AND FIGURED THE DESIGN WAS BAD.

VEHICLE TOUCH SCREEN TURNED GREEN. CAMERAS STOPPED WORKING. SCREEN BEEPS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN HANDHELD DEVICE IS CONNECTED TO THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN. WILL BEGIN TO WORK AGAIN AFTET A FEW MINUTES PASS.

I'VE HAD MY CAR FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS IT HAS FAILED TO START. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND SAW THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. I FOUND A YOUTUBE VIDEO THAT GAVE INSTRUCTIONS ON A POSSIBLE REMEDY -- WHICH INCLUDED GOING UNDER THE HOOD OF THE CAR AND FINAGLING WITH THE BATTERY, ETC. MY HUSBAND TRIED THIS REMEDY AND ONCE MY CAR STARTED, I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. AT THE DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THAT MY BATTERY WAS DEAD; THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY. MONTHS LATER, WITH MY NEW BATTERY, THIS HAPPENED AGAIN. MY HUSBAND TRIED THE REMEDY AGAIN BUT WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP I TOLD HIM THAT THEY SHOULD LOOK FURTHER INTO THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS NOT JUST THE BATTERY. TO ME, IT WAS SOME KIND OF ELECTRICAL GLITCH. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM OF THE 'NO-START', THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. AT 6 MONTHS PREGNANT I TOLD THEM THAT I WAS BEING LEFT IN A VULNERABLE POSITION WITH A VERY UNRELIABLE VEHICLE. I TOLD THEM THAT A GOOGLE SEARCH WOULD SHOW THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING WITH MANY HONDA CIVICS AND THAT THIS MUST BE A KNOWN ISSUE. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE A HONDA REPRESENTATIVE CONTACT ME AND THAT NEVER HAPPENED. I TOLD MYSELF THAT IF THIS HAPPENED AGAIN, I WOULD DO NOTHING MYSELF. I WOULD GET MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. WELL, OF COURSE, IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN AT 9 MONTHS PREGNANT. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT AGAIN HAS NOT STARTED. THE CAR REMAINS IN ACCESSORY MODE AND THE BRAKES AND SHIFT GEAR IS LOCKED. I TRULY THINK I HAVE A LEMON VEHICLE BECAUSE THIS COMPANY IS REFUSING TO LOOK FURTHER INTO THIS ISSUE. TO NOTE, EACH TIME THE CAR HASN'T STARTED, IT HAS BEEN AFTER I'VE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RETURNED TO IT A SHORT TIME LATER, EITHER AT HOME ON THE STREET OR AT WORK IN THE PARKING LOT.

I HAVE A HONDA CIVIC 2016 AND MY AC WAS NOT WORKING SINCE LAST YEAR 2018. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER SHIP AND BEING TOLD THAT I NEED TO PAY $295 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS WHICH I REFUSED TO DO IT. I DID SOME RESEARCH TO SEE IF ANYONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND YESS THEY DO AND A LOT. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER SHIP TODAY AFTER I GOT RECALLED LETTER FOR THE CONDENSER. AFTER 6 HRS, THEY CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THAT MY CONDENSER IS GOOD, BUT MY COMPRESSOR IS NOT AND THE REPAIR FEE WILL BE UP TO $1200. IF I REFUSE TO FIX IT, I STILL NEED TO PAY $395 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS FEE WHICH IS STUPID. I LOOKED IT UP AGAIN AND HAD READ A LOT OF COMPLAINT ABOUT THE COMPRESSOR. I AM PAYING OFF MY CAR WHICH I OWN FOR ALMOST 4 YEARS AND NOW EVERYTHING IS ALREADY BROKEN. THIS IS MY FIRST HONDA CAR AND I REGRET THAT I CHOSE HONDA. I HOPE HONDA DO SOME RESEARCH AND READ ABOUT PEOPLE COMPLAINT AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. NEVER BUY HONDA AGAIN.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL CONTINUOUSLY CREEPING ABOVE MAX FILL LINE AFTER EVERY OIL CHANGE. NOTE: OIL MEASURED AT SAME LOCATION IN GARAGE AND AT SAME TEMPERATURE, AND OIL ALLOWED SUFFICIENT TIME TO DRAIN BACK INTO OIL PAN.

I PURCHASE THIS CAR IN JUNE OF 2019; I HAD THE CAR FOR APPROX 5 MONTHS. I TOLD THE HONDA DEALER MECHANIC THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I BROUGHT IT BACK IN SEPTEMBER. THEY CLAIM THEY CHECKED THE BRAKES AND EVERYTHING WAS FIND. I HAD A MAINTENANCE CHECK AND AN OIL CHECK. A MONTH IN HALF LATER I EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES I WAS COMPLAINING ABOUT IN SEPTEMBER. ON 11/14/19 I DROVE MY CAR TO A LOCATION NO PROBLEMS. I PARKED THE CAR . WHEN I WENT BACK TO TURN ON THE CAR THAT'S WHEN THE BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON SAYING ELECTRICAL BRAKE PROBLEM. I READ THEY HAD A RECALL ON THE ELECTRICAL BRAKE SYSTEM. I WONDER DID THIS CAR EVER GOT FIXED FROM THE RECALL. TURNED MY CAR ON AND THE BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT BEGIN FLASHING STATING ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM. THE RED LIGHT CONTINUED BLINKING. THE CAR WAS IN PARK WHEN THIS HAPPEN. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. I DROVE THE CAR ON WITH THE WARNING LIGHTS STILL ON.

RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA ABOUT A/C CONDENSER LEAKS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, SAID THAT CONDENSER IS FINE THAT IS THE COMPRESSOR THAT IS LEAKING. TOTAL JOB COST IS OVER $1200. CALLED HONDA, SAID THAT COMPRESSOR IS NOT COVERED IN WARRANTY EXTENSION.
