I HAVE A REAR WHEEL BEARING FAILING. I HAVE LEARNED OF A HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN (07-055). THE HONDA DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THE WORK HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED. THE LAST STEP IN THE INSPECTION/REPAIR PROCEDURE (STEP 13) INSTRUCTS TO: CENTER-PUNCH A COMPLETION MARK BELOW THE SEVENTH CHARACTER OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT VIN: *SLIDE OPEN THE FRAME NUMBER DOOR ON THE CENTER COWL COVER. *USE A LONG PUNCH TO REACH THE VIN. (SEE SERVICE BULLETIN FOR EXAMPLE) THERE IS NO PUNCH MARK ON MY VEHICLE. IF THIS PORTION OF THE PROCESS WAS NOT COMPLETED, HOW AM I TO BE ENSURED THAT THE PROCEDURE WAS PERFORMED COMPLETELY?

MY SON WAS DRIVING AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A 5 WAY INTERSECTION CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR. MY CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR MADE LOUD RUBBING NOISE. CAR WAS TOWED TO HONDA DEALER. I WAS TOLD IN WAS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND CLUTCH. I CONTACTED HONDA WARRANTIES I BOUGHT THE CAR AS A CERTIFIED USED HONDA. IT HAD 100000 MI WARRANTY WHICH I WAS PAST. HONDA ADVISE IT WAS 3900.00 IF FIX AND AGREED TO PAY 1300. IN READING ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2007 YEAR I FEEL THEY SHOULD HAVE PAID MORE. SINCE OWNING THE CAR I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES FROM HONDA ABOUT ENGINE LEAKAGE PROBLEM AND THAT ENGINE IS COVERED FOR 10YEARS, ALSO REAR CONTROL ARMS, AND I JUST RECEIVED IN MAIL A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE ABOUT PREMATURE BREAK WARE. AT AROUND 70000 I HAD TO REPLACE MOTOR MOUNTS THAT WAS COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR DRUM BRAKES AT 90000. I HAVE ALWAYS DRIVEN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A CLUTCH EVERY AND KEEP MOST CARS FOR OVER 150000 MI. AND DRUM BRAKES SHOULD NEVER HAVE GONE AT 90000. I HAVE TO SAY VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH HONDA AND FROM READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ON YOUR SITE THERE IS PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSIONS ON THIS YEAR. *TR

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR AND IT GOES INTO A SHIFT GEAR IT TUGS BACK AND FORTH THAN IT KICKS IN, IN ONLY DOES IT AT CERTAIN SPEED THAN IT STOPS. I WANT TO KNOW IF THERE ANY RECALLS ON THE TRANSMISSION AND IF ANY REPAIRS ARE BEING DONE OR HAVE BEEN DONE. I AM AFRAID THAT IT WILL JUST BREAK APART IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EXPRESSWAY AND CAUSE SOME PILEUP AND MY LIFE OR OTHERS MAY BE IN DANGER. *TR

3RD GEAR FAILURE IN TRANSMISSION. GEAR BLEW OUT THE BOTTOM AND TOP CASING OF THE TRANSMISSION AND DESTROYED THE ENTIRE THING. HAD TO HAVE IT COMPLETELY REBUILT (ALMOST $3000). THIS WAS DETERMINED TO BE A MECHANICAL FAILURE. PRIOR TO THIS, I NOTICED THE 3RD GEAR WAS STICKING/FAILING TO SHIFT PROPERLY AND HAD THE TRANSMISSION CHECKED AND FLUSHED. THIS ONLY APPEARED TO HAVE MASKED THE ISSUE. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES, THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE AND THE SPEEDOMETER JUMPED TO 0. THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE, HAD TO BE TOWED (ADDITIONAL $100) AND THE REPAIR HAD TO BE MADE. FOR ANYONE WITH 3RD GEAR ISSUES - PLEASE HAVE THIS CHECKED ASAP AND PREVENT YOURSELF THE EXTREME EXPENSE I HAD! IT APPEARS AS IF, AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE, SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE... *TR

I HAVE HONDA CIVIC SI 2007. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH 3RD GEAR. IT POPS OUT AND SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO GET IT IN THE 3DR GEAR. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THE WEATHER IS COOL AND IT'S INTERMEDIATE. IT COULD HAPPEN 2 TIMES A DAY OR 2 TIMES A WEEK DEPENDING ON THE WEATHER/DRIVING TIME AND CONDITIONS. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN MAHWAH, NJ (AS I BEEN TOLD CAR HAS BEEN TAKING FOR THE TEST DRIVE 7 TIMES AND TOTAL 22 MILES ON IT)AND NANUET, NY(2 TIMES TOTAL 10 MILES) AND I ALSO CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA TO FILE A COMPLAINT ABOUT IT 3 TIMES(CASE # [XXX]). AS A RESULT DEALERSHIPS COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND HONDA OF AMERICA ONLY CAN ADVISE ME TO GO TO THE DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP. I HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS CAR IT WILL EXPIRE IN AUGUST 2013 AND AS I WAS TOLD AT HONDA OF AMERICA IT BECOMES MY PROBLEM AFTER WARRANTY WILL EXPIRE. THIS IS THE WORST COSTUMER CARE SERVICE OWNING A CAR I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED, AND IT'S HONDA. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
