2006 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

MICU FUSE BLOCK WITH BODY CONTROL MODULE 2265245 WENT OUT AND I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED, IT WAS STAYING IN THE "ON" POSITION SO IT DRAINED EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL (BATTERY) WOULDN'T START, WAS STUCK IN "PARK" NOTHING ELECTRICAL WOULD WORK INCLUDING THE "KEY"

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. I WAS DRIVING IT HOME AND NOTICED THE HEAT RISING. GOT IT TOWED HOME AND THEN TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN INFORMED ME ABOUT THE ISSUE I NOW HAVE. TOLD THAT A CAN GET A NEW MOTOR. I CALLED HONDA TO BE TOLD THAT THEY EXTENDED THE FACTORY RECALL FOR 10YRS. AND WITH IT BEING 2019 ITS BEEN OUT OF DATE FOR 3 YRS NOW. SO ITS GOING TO COST ME MONEY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT THEY KNEW WAS CAUSING ISSUES FOR FOLKS.

ENGINE LEAKING COOLANT HONDA DEALER SAID BLOCK IT CRACKED. FOUND OUT LATER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 TO 2009. HONDA DEALER NOR HONDA CORP EVER NOTIFIED ME. THEY KNOWINGLY SOLD AND SERVICED MY CAR JUST RUNNING OUT THE CLOCK. I HAVE BEEN RIDING HONDA'S BEFORE I WAS DRIVING THEM GOING BACK THE THE 60'S. I HAVE TWO HONDA CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY NOW. MY COMPLAINT IS MORE THE THE COMPANY AND DEALER THEN WITH THE PRODUCT. I COULD NOT SELL THIS CAR TO ANYBODY NOW NOR SHOULD HAVE YOU. I STILL BELIEVE YOU MAKE A DEPENDABLE AND DURABLE PRODUCT BUT AM NO LONGER A ONE STOP SHOPPER.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND HONDA WOULD REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY IF IT WAS LEAKING. NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND ENGINE BLOCK STARTS LEAKING. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. ALL OF THESE AFFECTED ENGINES SHOULD BE REPLACED NOW!!! OR HONDA SHOULD BUY THE CAR BACK. NOW I'M WITHOUT A CAR AND STILL OWE MONEY. I CANNOT AFFORD THE $6,000 TO REPLACE THIS ENGINE. I CAN AFFORD 10%, BUT HONDA WILL NOT EVEN OFFER ANY DISCOUNT TO REPLACE AN INFERIOR PRODUCT THAT THEY KNEW HAD PROBLEMS.

MY 18 YEAR OLD SON WAS OUT OF TOWN WAS ON HIS WAY HOME ON A HIGHWAY. HIS HONDA CIVIC'S A/C BEGAN TO BE LESS AND LESS COOL. THEN HIS TEMPERATURE GAUGE QUICKLY ROSE AS FAR IN THE RED THAT IT COULD GO. HE PULLED OVER AND CALLED US. WE WENT TO PICK HIM UP. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF A LEAK UNDER HIS CAR BUT THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LOW. WE FILLED IT UP AND DROVE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY WE CHECKED THE ANTIFREEZE LEVEL AND IT WAS VERY LOW AGAIN WITH NO SIGN OF ANYTHING UNDER THE CAR. WE TOOK THE CAR IN AND THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LEAKING INTO THE OIL. WE HAD ONE OF THE CIVICS THAT HAD THE KNOWN ISSUE OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING AND THE ENGINE BLOCKS WERE CRACKING AROUND THE 100,000 MILE MARK. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN POTENTIALLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS MY SON DROVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY OFTEN FOR SCHOOL. HONDA IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFAULT BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THAT CLAIM. BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN SOONER, DOES NOT MAKE THE DEFECT LESS DANGEROUS. MY SON WAS NOT INJURED BECAUSE HE MADE A INTELLIGENT DECISION ABOUT AN ISSUE THAT WASN'T RIGHT. I WORRY FOR THOSE THAT TAKE THE CHANCE. NO ONE WANTS THEIR CHILD STRANDED AFTER DARK BECAUSE OF SOMETHING THAT HONDA KNOWS IS A PROBLEM BUT WASH THEIR HANDS OF IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN THEIR TIME FRAME. THESE VEHICLES SHOULD NOT BE ON THE ROAD.

TWICE WHILE DRIVING THE BOLTS TO THE TORQUE MOUNT AND ENGINE BROKE. AND THE CARS ENGINE FELL ON THAT SIDE. MAKING VERY LOUD SOUND AND THE CAR STOPED NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE. BOTH TIMES IT HAPPENED ON RESIDENTIAL STREET. HAD IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. THERE WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY CAUSED A VERY DANGEROUS LIFE THREATENING COLLISION. WENT TO PICK A PART LOOKING FOR THE BOLTS. DOING SO FOUND OTHER CARS THERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

PREMATURE WEAR AND CUPPING OF TIRES RESULTING IN UNSTABLE DANGEROUS TIRE PERFORMANCE AND LOUD DISTRACTING NOISE APPARENTLY DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN UPPER CONTROL ARM DESIGN.

THE ENGINE BLOCKED CRACKED. IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT. TSB 10-048. I AM OUTSIDE OF THE HONDA WARRANTY AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE CAR IS NOW VIRTUALLY WORTHLESS. I NOTICED A COOLANT SMELL. I STOPPED THE CAR AND SAW COOLANT LEAKING OUT. I TOOK TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THEY VERIFIED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE HONDA DEALER TO VERIFY THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE HONDA DEALER VERIFIED THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA OF AMERICA REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. BASICALLY I AM OUT OF LUCK.
