2016 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

CAR ALLOWED ITSELF TO BE TURNED OFF WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. UPON LEAVING CAR IT ROLLED DOWN INCLINE INTO ANOTHER CAR. MY HUSBANDS HONDA (2011 CRV) DOES NOT ALLOW THE CAR TO TURNED OFF IN DRIVE NOR DOES IT ALLOW THE KEY TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHILE STILL IN GEAR/DRIVE. *TR

OUR 2016 HONDA CIVIC TOURING CAR EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM FROM TIME TO TIME WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY WHEN OPERATING UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP IN SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA CALLED RIGHT HONDA. THEY TOOK THE CAR TWICE TO HELP FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM. NEVERTHELESS, RIGHT HONDA DROVE THE CAR AROUND 81 MILES AN HOUR. WE HAVE A GPS TRACKING DEVICE ON THE CAR THAT ALERTS US WHEN SOMEONE IS DRIVING UNPROFESSIONAL. THE RIGHT HONDA WAS SHOWN AND ASKED WHY THEY DROVE OUR CAR SO FAST AT AN UNPROFESSIONAL SPEED ON A PUBLIC STREET IN ARIZONA. THE SERVICE MANAGER JUST TOLD ME IT WAS FOR TESTING PURPOSES, TO GET THE CAR TO REACT. WE TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL TO DRIVE OUR CAR AT SUCH HIGH SPEEDS AND THEY ADDED THAT IF WE DO NOT LIKE IT WE CAN TAKE OUR CAR SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE FUTURE. WE ALSO LET HONDA AMERICA KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY JUST TOLD US THAT THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RIGHT HONDA?S ACTIONS FOR THEIR UNPROFESSIONAL ACTIONS. THE GOOD NOTE IS THAT WE THINK RIGHT HONDA MIGHT HAVE FINALLY FIXED THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEMS WE WERE HAVING, WHEN OUR 2016 HONDA CIVIC TOURING CAR WOULD STOP BY ITSELF FROM TIME TO TIME WITHOUT AN OBJECT IN FRONT OF OUR CAR. BUT DO NOT LIKE HOW HONDA AMERICA AND RIGHT HONDA DEALERSHIP HANDLED THE SITUATION. FEEL THEY NEED A LOT OF HELP IN THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CATEGORY. INCLUDING, NO DEALERSHIP SHOULD DRIVE ANYONE?S CAR CRIMINALLY EVER. *TR

I FILED JUST MOMENTS AGO BUT ENTERED THE WRONG PHOTOS. THESE ARE MORE CLEAR. THE LIGHTS WERE ON THE ENTIRE TIME. THEY JUST DON'T SHOW.

FOLLOWING MY WIFE AFTER A RECALL ON HER CAR, IT BEGAN TO RAIN LIGHTLY. KNOWING WE WERE ENTERING A 75MPH TURNPIKE, I PHONED HER TO ADVISE HER TO TURN ON HER LIGHTS. SHE DID. AT THE STOP LIGHT BEFORE GETTING ON THE TURNPIKE, ALL I COULD SEE WERE 2 TINY LED BULB TYPES ON BOTH SIDES. AS SHE BEGAN TO REACH SPEED, SHE GOT 10-15 CAR LENGTHS AHEAD OF ME. WE KNEW THE FACTORY SPOILER CAUSES A VORTEX BEHIND HER CAR AS WE WIPE OFF BLACK POWDER THAT BUILDS ON THE BACK OF HER CAR EACH DAY WHEN SHE COMES HOME FROM WORK. I'VE NEVER DRIVEN BEHIND HER LET ALONE IN THE RAIN. WITH THE VORTEX CREATING A BOILING SPRAY, AND THE TINY LED BULBS, I COULD NOT SEE HER AT ALL. JUST A SPRAY. NO LIGHTS. AT OUR EXIT CLOSE TO HOME, AS SHE TOOK OFF, I COULD NOT SEE HER TAIL LIGHTS EVEN 5 CAR LENGTHS BACK. IT WAS DAY TIME I FORGOT TO MENTION BUT CLOUDY AND AS STATED, LIGHT RAIN. I COULD SEE HER BRAKE AS THE BRAKE LIGHTS USE A COMMON BULB. AGAIN, WITH THE LIGHTS IN THE ON POSITION, THE ONLY TIME I SAW HER TAIL LIGHT WAS IN THE GARAGE. THE VEHICLE HAS TWO ISSUES. THE SPOILERS CREATE A SPRAY OF WATER REDUCING VISIBILITY OF THE BACKBOF HER CAR IN THE RAIN OR FOG TO ZERO. HONDA EVEN SHOWS PHOTOS WITH THEIR LIGHTS ON. TINY ANGLED LED'S POINTING UP AND IN. AND NOT NEARLY BRIGHT ENOUGH TO BE SEEN IN RAIN. HEAVY RAIN OR DENSE FOG, COULD BE CATASTROPHIC. MY WIFE DRIVES I-40 & I-44 TO AND FROM WORK DAILY. 13 MILES. SHE'S HAD THE CAR JUST A FEW MONTHS. I AM CONCERNED EACH MORNING. SHE CURRENTLY LEAVES WHEN IT'S DARK. I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE SPRING RAINS AND DAWNS EARLY LIGHT WHEATHER SHE WILL BE SEEN. AS STATED EARLIER, THE SPOILERS CAUSE THE TURBULENCE OR VORTEX BEHIND THE CAR. THE LIGHTS ARE TOO SMALL AND LUMENS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO BE SEEN. PHOTOS BELOW WILL SHOW ON CITY STREETS AND IN OUR DRIVEWAY. THE PHOTOS I TOOK FROM MY PHONE THE LAST FEW BLOCKS HOME AND INTO THE GARAGE. THIS IS BAD! SHE LOVES THIS CAR

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT HAS FALLEN OFF. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TO FIX IT FOUR TIMES AND NOW SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AT HONDA AND THERE IS NO FIX. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THERE IS NO WAY TO SEE OUT THE BACK WINDOW IN THE DARK OR WHEN CONDENSATION IS ON THE WINDOW, IF THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED. ALL YOU SEE IS A REFLECTION OF THE BRAKE LIGHT. WITHOUT THE BACKUP CAMERA, THE CAR WOULD NOT BE DRIVABLE. THIS OCCURS WHEN STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. IT

THE COVER FOR THE REVERSE LIGHT, REAR WINDOW, OF THE 2016 CIVIC HAS DROPPED AND AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TRYING TO GET AMERICAN HONDA TO CORRECT, STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE COVER CAN'T BE REMOVED AS THE REVERSE LIGHT IS TOO BRIGHT AND MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT THE REAR WINDOW AT NIGHT. DURING THE DAY, THE COVER OBSCURES OBJECTS/CARS IN THE REAR VIEW WINDOW.
