WITHIN 60 DAYS OF PURCHASING A 2007 HONDA CIVIC FROM A DEALER I EXPERIENCED ROADSIDE DAMAGE TO MY CONDENSER WHICH WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS INFORMED ME THAT THE UNIT WAS COMPLETELY EXPOSED AND THERE WAS NO PROTECTION/GRILL TO KEEP THIS FROM HAPPENING. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THIS APPEARED TO BE A DESIGN FLAW SINCE MOST AUTOS DO NOT EXPERIENCE THIS SAME ISSUE. AFTER CALLING HONDA TO COMPLAIN I WAS INFORMED THAT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AT THIS TIME EVEN THOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. *TR

MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID HAS UNEVEN AND IRREGULAR WEAR ON THE TIRES DUE TO AN EXTENSION ARM PROBLEM IN THE REAR. HONDA ISSUES A RECALL "FIX" WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM CAUSES CUPPING WHICH CREATES AN EXTREMELY NOISY, UNSTABLE RIDE. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY TIRES REPLACED FOUR TIMES. HONDA HAS SAID THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND UNDERSTAND MY "CONCERN" BUT THEY WILL NO LONGER REPLACE MY TIRES. I THINK IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT I WOULD HAVE PAY FOR REAR TIRES MORE THAN TWICE A YEAR BECAUSE OF THEIR ENGINEERING PROBLEM. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE AND IT HAS BEEN A CONSTANT BATTLE! THE CAR BECOMES REALLY UNSTABLE AND IN MINNESOTA WINTERS, IT HANDLES TERRIBLE IN WINTER CONDITIONS. I HAVE SLID IN THE DITCH WHEN OTHERS WERE TRAVELING MUCH FASTER THAN MYSELF BASED ON THE ROAD CONDITIONS. THIS IS A NUISANCE AND SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
