2006 Honda Civic

NOTICED CAR TEMP RISING AND GETTING HOTTER, NO INDICATORS OR WARNINGS LIGHTS. LET CAR COOL OFF AND NOTICED THE COOLANT WAS EXTREMELY LOW, CAR HAD ALL FLUIDS TOPPED OFF DURING A RECENT CHECK UP. ADDED COOLANT. ALL SEEMED FINE TILL THE NEXT WEEKEND WHEN CAR STARTED HEAT UP AGAIN, BROUGHT CAR INTO SHOP. FOUND ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND WAS LEAKING COOLANT. UPON FUTURE INVESTIGATION CRACK IS SAME LOCATION AS REFERENCE TSB NO. 10-048. SINCE THIS HAPPENED 20 DAYS AFTER THE 10 YEAR DATE HONDA IS REFUSING TO REPLACE. WE PURCHASED THE CAR A YEAR AGO FROM A DEALER AND WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.

CAR BEGAN OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION A HAIRLINE CRACK WAS VISIBLY LEAKING COOLANT ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT IT IS THE CRACK FROM TSB 10-048 BUT WILL NOT COVER SAID ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY TIME LIMIT . AS A SIDE NOTE, BEING THE THIRD OWNER OF THE VEHICLE I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY/ ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND HEARD A CLICKING NOISE. BY THE TIME I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY THE OIL LIGHT WAS ON. MY CAR THEN DIED AND SOON FOUND THE CAR HAD OVERHEATED. I TOOK IT TO HONDA AND THEY SAID IT IS PROBABLY A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK BUT WERE UNABLE TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN MORE THAN 8 YEARS SINCE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS OFFERED FOR THIS PROBLEM.

HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. AS I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY I HAD WHITE SMOKE COME OUT OF MY ENGINE BAY. I PULLED OVER AND CALLED THE TOWING. HAD IT TOWED TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER JUST TO FIND OUT THAT ITS GOT CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. AND THE SAID I AM OUT SIDE OF TIME PERIOD FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BY JUST OVER A MONTH. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE... IF THEY KNOW THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK IS FAULTY THEN HOW CAN THEY PUT A TIME LIMIT ON THE WARRANTY. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR NOT TOO LONG AGO AND NOW I HAVE TO SPEND THOUSANDS TO GET IT TO RUN AGAIN. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL PERIOD....

HELLO! A VERY WELL-KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 06-09 HONDA CIVIC IS A TENDENCY FOR THE ENGINE BLOCKS TO CRACK. FREQUENTING ONLINE FORUMS AND WEBSITES, IT SEEMS A WIDE RANGE OF PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED FROM LESS THAN 1,000 MILES TO UP TO 200,000 MILES. THAT BEING SAID, IT SEEMS THIS CAR IS A LITERAL TIME BOMB. THERE HAVE BEEN INCIDENTS OF PEOPLE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ONLY TO RAPIDLY LOSE POWER TO ALL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING THE BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS IS A PROFOUND SAFETY HAZARD, NOT ONLY TO THE DRIVER, BUT OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL! THAT BEING SAID, HONDA ADMITTED THAT THE TENDENCY FOR BLOCKS TO CRACK WAS DUE A FAULTY CASTING PROCESS. THEY HAD ISSUES AN INITIAL 8 YEAR WARRANTY AND INCREASED THAT TO 10 YEARS. AS OF LATE, MANY CURRENT OWNERS HAVE STILL HAD THEIR BLOCKS CRACKED. ONLY THIS TIME, HONDA IS REFUSING TO FIX THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT. AS SUCH, I WANTED TO BRING ATTENTION TO THIS ISSUE AND HOPE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO ALLEVIATE THIS MATTER. A CAR'S BLOCK UNDER NORMAL MAINTENANCE AND USE SHOULD NEVER CATASTROPHICALLY FAIL, LET ALONE RISK PEOPLE'S LIVES! EVEN IF A RECALL ISN'T ENFORCED, AT LEAST HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR FAULTY ENGINES AND PLACE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TAKATA RECALL *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND ENGINE OVERHEATED, MAKING MY CAR A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD, UNSAFE AND UNDRIVABLE. I TOOK MY HONDA INTO THE DEALERSHIP & THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND OFFERED TO RELPLACE WITH USED ENGINE FOR $4333.00. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE I FOUND PLENTY OF OTHER HONDA OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE CRACK WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT FROM HONDA.
