THESE CARS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO GET A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. HONDA HAS HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO MAKE AND MODEL HAVING A LOT OF THESE CARS ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING WHILE DRIVING, WHICH THIS CAN CAUSE A MAJOR CAR ACCIDENT. BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THESE ENGINE BLOCKS ARE GOING TO CRACK IT CAN BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAUSE CAR ACCIDENTS INJURE THEM OR OTHERS. HONDA SHOULD BE REPLACING ALL THE 2006 HONDA CIVIC ENGINES NOT JUST DOING EXTENDED WARRANTY. BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF THESE HONDAS WHO ARE HAVING THEIR ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKED RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTY IS UP. IT IS NOT RIGHT 2 NOT DO ANYTHING FOR OTHERS WHO GET A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK AND LOSE THEIR CAR WHEN HONDA SPECIFICALLY KNOWS IS MAKE AND MODEL HAS MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE ENGINES NO MATTER HOW MANY MILES WE HAVE ON THESE CARS DUE TO THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING AND COULD BE POSSIBLY CAUSING A CAR ACCIDENT ON A FREEWAY HIGHWAY OR A MAIN STREET SOMEWHERE WHICH CAN KILL THEIR SELF OR OTHER PARTIES ON THE ROADS. IF HONDA KNOWS IS SPECIFICALLY IS A DEFECT IN 2006 HONDA CIVIC ENGINES THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S THERE FAULT NOT THE OWNER'S FAULT. THIS IS HONDAS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THEIR DEFECTS THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF, WHEN THEY KNOW THIS IS A DEFECT. YES THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD , DUE TO THE ENGINE BLOCKS CRACKING AT ANY POSSIBLE TIME WHILE DRIVING OUR CARS. NO MY CAR HAS NOT HAD A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK YET, BUT I DO WORRY WHEN AND IF MINE DOES I CAN'T GO MAKE HONDA FIX THERE DEFECT

THE ENGINE BLOCK ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC CRACKED, AND THE CAR BROKE DOWN TODAY. I WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY DAUGHTER FROM RUNNING ERRANDS AND IT JUST DIED. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A SHOP. JUST GOT THE CALL SAYING THE BLOCK IS CRACKED, THAT IT MEANS A NEW ENGINE, THAT THERE WAS A 10 YEAR WARRANTY, BUT THAT I'M OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY. HONDA KNOWS CERTAIN YEARS OF CIVICS HAVE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, BUT THOSE OF US WHOSE CIVICS MADE IT LONGER BEFORE THE DEFECT KILLED THE ENGINE NOW BASICALLY HAVE SCRAP METAL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IMMACULATELY MAINTAINED AND I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS.

I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL MAINTENANCE GARAGE. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THEY INFORMED ME THE THAT OVERHEATING WAS DUE TO A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A REOCCURRING ISSUE WITH THE YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. THEY PRINTED THE MANUFACTURES PROCESS FOR IDENTIFYING AND CAUSE AND THE PROCESS FOR REPLACING THE ENGINE. SUBSEQUENTLY, I INFORMED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP OF THE ISSUE, THEY SAID THE MY VEHICLE FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY THE PROVIDES COVERAGE/ ENGINE REPLACEMENT TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP CONDUCT THE OFFICIAL INSPECTION. THE INSPECTION COST IS 75.00 ALONE AND DOESN'T EVEN GUARANTEE THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION WILL EVEN LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE. THIS ISSUE IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO SAY THE LEAST.
