AS I WAS FOLLOWING A ROW OF CARS INTO A DRIVEWAY OF A SHOPPING AREA, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE JUST TO ROLL A FEW INCHES SINCE TRAFFIC WAS BUMPER TO BUMPER. UNEXPECTEDLY MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD ON TO THE DRIVEWAY HITTING THE TRUCK TO MY RIGHT AND A CAR TO MY LEFT THAT WAS EXITING THE DRIVEWAY. BEFORE I COULD MAKE SENSE OF WHAT HAPPENED, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I HAD THE CAR INSPECTED BY THE HONDA DEALER BEFORE IT WENT TO THE REPAIR SHOP. HONDA RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE CAR AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED MY CAR TO ACCELERATE IN SUCH A MANNER. TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS $7800. *TR

OVER ALL HAVE BEEN HAPPY WILL PURCHASE UNTIL THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS. 3 WEEKS AGO HAD TO TAKE CARE INTO SERVICE (AT 25000 MILES) WAS TOLD THE PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING OF INABILITY TO RETAIN CHARGE ON IMA BATTERY WAS DUE TO A WEAK BATTERY. IT WAS DECIDED BY THE SERVICE DEPT TO REPLACE BATTERY. BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND IS KEEPING A SOMEWHAT BETTER CHARGE BUT HAVE NOTICED A SIGNIFICANT DECREASE IN POWER AND THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION ONLY WORKING OCCASIONALLY, ALSO NOTICED A DECREASE OF MILEAGE DOWN TO 23-25 MPG IN CITY. TOOK THE CAR BACK TO SERVICE AND AFTER THEY RAN DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND REVIEWING WITH HONDA "TECH" PEOPLE WAS TOLD THAT PERFORMANCE WAS HOW THEY INTENDED TO DECREASE WEAR ON BATTERIES LIFE. A CAR WITH NO POWER TO GO UP SMALL HILLS AND A 25MPG AVERAGE IS NOT WHAT I SPENT 27000$ ON AND THAT IT IS CERTAINLY NOT WHAT HONDA ADVERTISED THE CAR TO BE. *TR

2011 HONDA CIVIC WITH 4000 MILES. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND COMPLAINED ABOUT A BURNED SMELL WHEN BRAKING WHILE DRIVING UPHILL AFTER THE CAR STOPS. NO HEAVY BRAKING THOUGH. DEALERSHIP INSPECTED THE BRAKES AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AT 7300 MILES AND A TOTAL OF 7 MONTHS OF USE THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE A GRINDING NOISE WHEN BRAKING OR NOT. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID MY BRAKE PADS HAD ZERO % LEFT, METAL TO METAL. THEY BLAMED THE WAY THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN AND TREATED ME LIKE I WAS SOME JERK THAT WAS DRAG RACING EVERY DAY AND TOASTED THE BRAKES. I PREVIOUSLY HAD A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT I DROVE THE SAME WAY (AS A NORMAL PERSON BY THE WAY, CITY AND FREEWAY) AND DID NOT HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKES UNTIL OVER 33000 MILES! THIS IS RIDICULOUS, EVEN A VERY BAD DRIVER THAT KEEPS HITTING HIS BRAKES SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH 7300 MILES IN A COMPACT CAR. HONDA DECLINED ANY SERVICING AND DECLINED TO FIX OR EVEN LOOK DEEPER FOR A POSSIBLE PROBLEM. WANTED TO CHARGE ME OVER $100 FOR A 5 MINUTE BRAKE PAD INSPECTION... A JOKE! *TT
