2011 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

PAINT CAULKING OR PEELING OFF , CRACKING , CLOUDY APPEARANCE THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR(THE BLACK PAINT)AND THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR.

WHEEL BEARING OR ITS COMPONENTS WORN OUT BEFORE THE EXPIRY OF POWER TRAIN WARRANTY 5 YEARS OR 60000 MILES. THIS IS POSING HAZARD RISK. NEED COVERAGE TO REPAIR AT THE DEALER.

STRUTS WORN OUT BEFORE THE END OF POWER TRAIN WARRANTY EXPIRES( 5YEARS OR 60000 MILES. THE HONDA DEALER IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM OF WORN OUT STRUTS

THE HEAD REST IS TOO FAR FORWARD, AND VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. IT NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTABLE, NOT IN A FIXED POSITION.

2011 CIVIC COUPE MOTOR MOUNT/BUMP STOP DEFECTIVE AT 38684 MILES. CAUSES VEHICLE TO RATTLE AND VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY AT START, REVERSING, AND W/ AIR CONDITIONER ON. WHILE DRIVING ANY BUMP IN THE ROAD EXACERBATES THE CONDITION. HONDA SERVICE KNEW THE ISSUE OVER THE PHONE, MULTIPLE THREADS TO THE SAME OVER ENTIRE 8TH GEN CIVIC ARE FOUND WITH A BASIC GOOGLE SEARCH. RIGHT HONDA REFUSED TO COVER AND STATED $513.00 FOR A REPAIR HONDA SHOULD BE COVERING.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE VISORS ARE MECHANICALLY DEFECTIVE. FLIPPING THEM FROM UP TO DOWN USES AN INTERNAL COMPONENT WHICH SNAPS, KEEPING THE VISOR IN PLACE TO STAY OUT UP OUT OF VISIBILITY OR DOWN TO BLOCK THE SUN. AFTER 15K MILES OR SO, SNAP COMPONENT PUSHES OUT THROUGH THE VISOR ASSEMBLY, PREVENTING ABILITY TO USE DURING DRIVING -- AND ULTIMATELY OFF THE BRACKET HOLDING THE VISOR TO THE CEILING. CAR HAS 46K MILES ON IT -- BOTH VISORS HAVE NOW BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON A SLIPPERY ROAD, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A CURB. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. UPDATED 11/18/15*LJ

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR SPLIT HORIZONTALLY, MAKING IT UNABLE TO STAY IN UP POSITION. IT WILL FALL DOWN ON ITS OWN-PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTING VIEW.

I CALLED HONDA CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM THAT I AM EXPERIENCING IS NOT COVERED ANY LONGER UNDER THE WARRANTY. WHEN I TURNED LEFT, A CLUNKING NOISE CAN BE HEARD, AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A DRIVE AXLE. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER, CHARGED ME A DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT IS NOT AN AXLE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS A BUMP STOP PROBLEM, I HAVE TWO OLDER HONDA VEHICLES AND I DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. HONDA STRUTS ARE MEDIOCRE AND LOW IN QUALITY. THE SECOND PROBLEM THAT I HAVE IS EVAP MIL (P2422). AS PER TSB, THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AS WELL ON THIS SAME CAR.

HAPPENS FREQUENTLY THAT WHEN PARKING VEHICLE IN PERSONAL GARAGE, VEHICLE WILL LURCH FORWARD AGGRESSIVELY ON ITS OWN WHILE BRAKES BEING APPLIED. HAVE TO LEAN HARD INTO BRAKES TO KEEP VEHICLE FROM HITTING ANYTHING IN GARAGE. A/C COMPRESSOR BEING ACTIVE OR INACTIVE DOES NOT IMPACT THIS BEHAVIOR, ENGINE TEMPERATURE DOES NOT SEEM TO PLAY A ROLE EITHER. THIS IS OUR FOURTH HONDA, NONE OF THE OTHER THREE HAVE HAD THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. *TR
