NEW 2006 HONDA CIVIC - MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE LOW IDLE (650) RPM INSTANTLY INCREASING TO AROUND 1000 RPM WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS SLIGHTLY TURNED, CAUSING THE CAR TO JUMP AHEAD. YOU MUST HAVE YOUR FOOT FIRMLY PLACED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL TIMES. IF YOU REMOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE AND TURN THE WHEEL, THE CAR LURCHES FORWARD. I BELIEVE THIS A SAFETY CONCERN AND AN ANNOYANCE. HONDA FACTORY TECH CLAIMS THIS HOW IT IS DESIGNED. ACCORDING TO DEALER, OTHER SIMILAR 06 CIVICS HAVE SAME CONDITION. *JB

I BOUGHT A 2006 HONDA CIVIC LX ON 02/21/06. I WAS AT THE MALL ON DATE BELOW AND WENT TO BACK OUT OF MY SPACE, WHEN A VAN BACKED OUT AND WE HIT BUMPERS. I WAS GOING TO PULL BACK INTO MY SPOT TO SEE THE DAMAGE AND WHEN I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE, IT TOOK OFF LIKE A ROCKET AND WOULD NOT STOP...I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE TRYING TO STOP IT, AND IT WOULD NOT STOP. I HIT A 2006 COBALT, MY CAR FLIPPED OVER ONTO ITS SIDE HIT A 2003 CHEVY DRIVING IN BETWEEN THESE TWO PARKED CARS . I THEN DROVE OVER THE COBALT AND WHEN I CAME TO THE END OF THESE CARS, MY CAR CAME OUT OF THEM AND FLEW THROUGH THE AIR OVER INTO THE PARKING SPACE ACROSS THE PARKING LOT. THE DEPUTY SHERIFF AND HIS SERGEANT CAME TO THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT AND SAID THAT THERE WAS NO WAY THAT HONDA CIVIC COULD HAVE DONE WHAT IT DID AND TO DRIVE OVER THE COBALT WITHOUT SOMETHING BEING WRONG WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL OR THE COMPUTER. I WENT ONTO HONDA'S WEB SITE AND FOUND THAT HONDA CIVICS WERE ON A RECALL FOR THE ACCELERATOR PEDALS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE RECALL, AND THE NEW CAR MANAGER TOLD ME IT WAS FOR THE TWO DOOR CIVICS ONLY, AND MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE TURNED THE KEY OFF WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I THEN CALLED THE GENERAL MANAGER AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND TOLD HMI WHAT HAPPENED AND HIS COMMENT WAS "THAT WAS VERY UNFORTUNATE". I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM HONDA SINCE THIS HAPPENED. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT HONDA, AND THEY SAY THEY WILL CALL BACK, BUT NEVER DO. I DON'T WANT THIS CAR AND I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD PAY FOR THIS DEATH TRAP OF A VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOW. I WANTED HONDA TO KNOW THAT THE 4 DOOR CIVIC'S SHOULD BE ON A RECALL ALSO. I THINK HONDA IS NOT GOING TO STAND UP AND SAY THERE'S A PROBLEM. I KNOW WHAT I DID THAT DAY, AND I KNOW THAT THAT CIVIC COULD NOT HAVE DONE WHAT IT DID IN THAT SHORT DISTANCE WITHOUT SOMETHING GOING WRONG SOMEWHERE IN THAT CAR. *NM

ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC SI, REAR SPOKE COVERS ON LEATHER WRAPPED STEERING WHEEL PROTRUDE WITH SHARP EDGES. THIS COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE FINGERS WHILE DRIVING. IT IS NOT MERELY A TACTILE CONCERN SINCE THE SHARP EDGE HAS ACTUALLY CUT MY FINGER TIP WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING THIS NEW CAR. THE CONCERN EXISTS ON OTHER LEATHER WRAPPED STEERING WHEELS OF THE SAME MODEL. THERE IS CURRENTLY NO SOLUTION TO THIS MATTER WITH AMERICAN HONDA AND IT IS OBVIOUSLY A BAD FITMENT OF THE STEERING WHEEL BACK ONTO A LEATHER WRAPPED STEERING WHEEL. IT IS BAD DESIGN AND CAN INTERFERE WITH DRIVING ABILITY OF THE CAR. EVERY TIME THE WHEEL IS TURNED ABOUT 180 DEGREES, UPON RETURN TO CENTER THE SHARP PLASTIC EDGE OF THE BACK SPOKE COVERS COME SLICING AT THE FINGER TIPS. WITH NO SOLUTION CURRENTLY PLANNED AND WHAT I WOULD CALL POOR RESPONSE IN HONDA'S RESOLUTION SCENARIO, THIS NEEDED TO BE BROUGHT TO A HIGHER LEVEL OF ATTENTION. SINCE THIS AFFECTS MY MODEL OF CAR AND POSSIBLY OTHER 2006 CIVICS WITH THE LEATHER WRAPPED STEERING WHEEL OPTION, IT WILL AFFECT MANY CUSTOMERS AND WILL POTENTIALLY INJURE DRIVERS AND INTERFERE WITH DRIVING ABILITY. *NM

PROBLEM: FAILURE OF SUN VISOR ON 2006 HONDA CIVIC. I RECENTLY PURCHASED A HONDA CIVIC FROM MISSION VALLEY HONDA IN SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA. THE CAR IS NOW ABOUT 4 MONTHS OLD AND BOTH OF THE SUN VISORS ARE FALLING APART. I KNOW THIS IS NOW A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, BUT A VISOR FALLING OFF IN A CRASH OR DURING AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT IS SOMETHING I AM CONCERNED WITH. ON TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER THEY TOLD US THAT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER BECAUSE THEY ARE FALLING APART ON MANY OF THE NEW CIVICS. I AM WRITING THIS BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW IF YOU HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE PROBLEM, AND IT DOES SEEM THAT A RE-DESIGN OF THE PART MAY BE NEEDED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, AND MAY WARRANT A RECALL. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS MATTER. -ANDREW GIBBS. *NM
