BEGAN SMELLING ANTI-FREEZE ONE WEEK AGO, TOOK CR TO SHOP 3 DAYS LATER, TOLD THEIR IS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. 2006 CIVIC, UNDER 4 YEARS OLD, BUT 68K MILES, SO DEALER SAYS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. AS THEY HAVE SEEN SIMILAR PROBLEMS, THEIR DISTRICT MANAGER APPROVED THEM COVERING 50 % OF THE ESTIMATED COST OF $3100 TO REPLACE THE ENGINE / BLOCK. WHILE I APPRECIATE THEIR GENEROSITY, I WOULD EXPECT THEM TO COVER IT 100 %, AS THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON THE R18 ENGINE USED IN THE 2006 CIVIC. THAT I WAS UNLUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE MADE IT PASSED 60K MILES BEFORE THE CRACK APPEARED SEEM IRONIC. I SUGGEST THAT HONDA MAKE GOOD ON A 90 / 10 REPLACEMENT PROGRAM, 90 % OF THE COST COVERED BY AMERICAN HONDA. IF THIS WAS SOME OTHER BRAND WITH A LESSER REPUTATION FOR QUALITY AND RELIABILITY, I WOULD NOT BE SO SURPRISED, BUT THE HONDA NAME LEADS ME TO EXPECT BETTER. *TR

THERE IS A BIG "ENGINE BLOCK CRACK" WITH ALOT OF 2006-2008 HONDA CIVICS, MANY OF THE OWNERS HAVE ALREADY POST THEIR PROBLEMS ON MANY FORUMS. MANY OWNERS TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND HONDA DID REPAIR IT FOR FREE. BUT !!! I STILL THINK THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO AN INSPECTION ON IT AND TELL HONDA TO SETUP A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. HONDA WILL FIX THE PROBLEM ONLY IF ITS UNDER THE WARRANTY, BUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE CAR IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY? AND I STILL THINK HONDA SHOULD FIX IT BECAUSE IT IS A MANUFACTURES FAULT FOR USING BAD HEATING MATERIAL ON ENGINE BLOCKS. HERES A LINK TO A FORUM SITE ""HTTP://WWW.8THCIVIC.COM/FORUMS/MECHANICAL-PROBLEMS-TECHNICAL-CHAT/42339-MY-R18-BLOCK-CRACKED-CHECK-YOURS.HTML"" P.S. SOME PEOPLE ALREADY MENTION THAT HONDA ALREADY KNOWN THIS PROBLEM BUT NEVER MENTION IT TO ALL THE CIVIC OWNERS........ THIS IS VERY SAD TO HEAR. *TR

I OWN A 2006 HONDA CIVIC AND OVER THIS PAST WEEKEND I STARTED TO GET THE SWEET SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO OVERHEAT. I THOUGHT THIS WAS VERY ODD BECAUSE I AM ONLY AT 82,000 MILES. WHEN MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP INSPECTED THE CAR, THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED AND THAT THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE 2006 AND 2007 ENGINES USED IN THE CIVIC. I WAS VERY LUCKY NOT TO HAVE ENDED UP STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY DURING THIS FRIGID NEW ENGLAND WINTER. IF HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS FLAW THEY SHOULD BE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT AGREE TO FIX MY VEHICLE YET. THEY'VE ESTIMATED THE REPAIRS TO COST BETWEEN $3,000 AND $7,000. I AM HOPEFUL THEY WILL HELP ME. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GATHER, MANY OTHER CIVIC OWNERS ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM OF ENGINE BLOCK CRACKS WITH LOW MILEAGE ON THEIR VEHICLES. *TR
