UNEVEN REAR TIRE WEAR ON 2006 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID CAUSED BY FLAW OF UPPER CONTROL ARMS. HONDA NEVER TOLD ME EVEN THOUGH I HAD TO REPLACE MY REAR TIRES 2 TIMES - ONCE AT 15,000 MILES AND AGAIN AT LESS THAN 31,000 MILES. WAS TOLD THAT TIRE WEAR WAS BECAUSE OF HOW I DROVE, AMOUNT OF AIR IN TIRES, NEED OF ALIGNMENT ALTHOUGH IT WAS WITHIN SPECS, ETC. HONDA NEVER TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS TBS 08-001 OR THAT THE REPAIR WAS NEEDED. I EVEN WENT TO HONDA ON AUG. 13, 2009 COMPLAINING OF VIBRATIONS FELT ESPECIALLY IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 68 MPH. THEY PUT THE CAR ON THE LIFT AND MY REAR TIRES WERE WORN ON THE INNER BOTTOMS RIGHT DOWN TO THE STEEL BELTS! THE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TIRES AND AN ALIGNMENT AND SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE NEED FOR THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS EVEN THOUGH THE MECHANIC SAID TO SAL (THE SERVICEMAN HELPING ME) ABOUT SOME SORT OF RECALL ONLY TO HAVE SAL SAY THAT THERE WERE NONE. I WAS LEAVING FOR NC THE FOLLOWING MORNING TO VISIT MY SON AND WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE HAD A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT IF I HAD DRIVEN THE CAR THAT WAY. I WENT TO A GARAGE AND GOT THE REAR TIRES PUT ON. I WENT TO A LICENSED MECHANIC IN NC FOR THE ALIGNMENT, BUT WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS ALREADY WITHIN THE SPECS. WHEN I RETURNED TO NJ, I WENT TO HONDA AGAIN AND TOLD THEM THAT I NEEDED TO KNOW WHY MY TIRES KEPT WEARING OUT AND THEY PRETTY MUCH SAID THAT THEY DID NOT KNOW AND THAT I SHOULD CALL HONDA, WHICH I DID. FERNANDO SAID THAT HE WOULD CONTACT THE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE THE CAR BACK TO HIM. IT IS ONLY THAN THAT THEY REPLACED THE PARTS AND TOLD ME THAT IT WAS COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE WEAR ON THEM. I FEEL THAT IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH WEAR. THEY SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE SERVICE BULLETIN. I INVESTIGATED MYSELF TO FIND THAT MANY OTHERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR HONDAS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS. *TR

THREE TIMES WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR MY AUTO TENSIONER HAS BROKEN DUE TO A POOR DESIGN BY HONDA. THEY ONLY COVER FIXING IT UNDER WARRENTY. WHEN IT HAPPENS I LOSE ALL FUNCTIONING OF MY BELT INCLUDING POWER STEERING, ALTERNATER, AND WATER PUMP. LUCKILY IN EACH INSTANCE I WAS NOT DOING A TURN OR HAD A STEEP TURNING COMMING UP BUT I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO IF THERE WAS ONE AND IT WOULD RESULT IN A CRASH OR THE CAR OVERTURNING POSSIBLY. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND EACH OF THE 3 TIMES IT HAPPENED SUDDENLY WHERE I HEAR A SOUND AND MY BATTERY LIGHT TURNS ON. I TOOK IT TO MIDAS TO REPAIR IT AND IN EACH CASE IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN A WEEK OR LESS. HONDA KNEW ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT DID NOT EVEN WARN ME OR WARN MIDAS ABOUT THE PART NEEDING TO BE REPLACED UNTIL THE 3RD INCIDENT. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE SUNVISORS BOTH "EXPLODED" ON 06' HONDA CIVIC AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH CIVICS. VERY VALID SAFETY COMPLAINT AS YOU CANNOT SEE WITH THE VISOR HANGING IN YOUR SIGHTLINE AS WELL AS IT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE SUN!!! *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR HAS COMPLETELY SPLIT APART NOT ALLOWING IT TO CLOSE. IT HANGS DOWN IN FRONT OF MY LINE OF VISION AND WILL NOT STAY BACK UP. IT OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW WHEN I TRY TO DRIVE AND ESPECIALLY MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. MY BOYFRIEND CANNOT EVEN DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE HE CAN'T SEE BELOW THE VISOR. THE VISOR STARTED TO CRACK SLIGHTLY WHEN MY CAR PASSED ITS 36K MILE WARRANTY, BUT EVERY SUMMER IT HAS CRACKED FURTHER AND FURTHER WHERE IT'S NOW TO THE POINT THAT THE SUN VISOR WON'T STAY UP FOR A SECOND. I CALLED THE NATIONAL HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER AND THEY SAID THAT THE DEALERSHIPS NEED TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BEFORE THEY CAN DO ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIPS WON'T DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM UNLESS THERE IS PAID A "DIAGNOSIS FEE" (AND EVEN AT THAT POINT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT NATIONAL HONDA WILL CORRECT THE ISSUE). THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD THAT COMPLETELY OBSTRUCTS A DRIVER'S LINE OF VISION AND ESPECIALLY IMPAIRS NIGHT TIME DRIVING. *TR

A SCREW HOLDING IN PLACE THE TRUNK SENSOR BROKE INTO TWO PIECES AND WE COULD NOT OPEN THE TRUNK,EITHER WITH THE CABLE RELEASE OR THE FOB. THERE ARE TWO APPROXIMATELY 1/16 INCH WIDE SCREWS HOLDING THE TRUNK SENSOR IN PLACE SO THAT IT CAN OPEN THE TRUNK ON COMMAND FROM THE FOB OR CABLE RELEASE SYSTEM. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEN IN AN ACCIDENT NOR HAS IT BEEN JARRED VIOLENTLY IN ANY WAY. THIS SCREW BREAKING IN TWO PIECES HAPPENED DURING NORMAL USE.THERE IS NO KEY RELEASE SYSTEM TO LOWER THE BACK SUPPORT SECTION OF THE REAR SEATS NOR IS THERE A REAR LOCK TO ENTER THE TRUNK.SO,TO FIX THE PROBLEM ,MY MECHANIC HAD TO REMOVE ENOUGH BOLTS TO ENTER FROM BEHIND THE REAR SEAT.
