2016 Honda Civic

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND HESITATED. OCCASIONALLY, WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, MULTIPLE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, INDICATING FAILURES WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM, STEERING, AND STABILITY CONTROL. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT OPERATED NORMALLY. THE FAILURES WERE NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (APPLE HONDA 1, 801 WHITEFORD RD, YORK, PA) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

FUEL IS LEAKING INTO THE OIL. THE DEALER JUST SUGGESTED CHANGING THE OIL MORE OFTEN. I KNOW THIS IS A DEFECT BUT WHAT CAN I DO? THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS NOT RELIABLE....ONE DAY MY PASSENGER WINDOW WOULD NOT WORK FROM MY CONTROL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. FINALLY IT DID--THIS WAS WHEN PARKED. THEY REPLACED ONCE AND THEN "UPDATED" THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM ONCE BECAUSE OF VERY DISRUPTIVE THINGS THAT HAPPEN ON THE SCREEN WHILE DRIVING. ONCE (THIS WAS PARKED) IT TOTALLY LOCKED UP MY IPHONE SO THAT I COULD NOT USE IT EVEN AFTER I SHUT THE CAR OFF (I WAS PARKED AND HAD TURNED THE CAR ON ) AND REBOOTED MY PHONE! ONCE I GOT LOCKED OUT OF MY CAR AFTER OPENING THE TRUNK AND CLOSING IT...MY FOB WOULD NOT WORK AND WHEN I USED THE KEY, IT SET OFF THE ALARM, FLASHED THE LIGHTS AND RESET ALL MY PERSONAL SETTINGS. SOMETIMES THE STEERING WHEEL RADIO CONTROLS LOCK UP AND DON'T WORK. MANY TIMES THE RADIO SCREEN GOES BLACK WHEN I AM DRIVING AND NOT TOUCHING IT. ONE TIME IT STARTED BEEPING AND WOULD NOT STOP....VERY DANGEROUS AS I TRY TO DRIVE WITH THE BEEPING. AND, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE VERY SPORADIC....DOES NOT MATTER IF I TRY RESETTING THEM TO AUTO....WHEN IT IS NOT RAINING THEY GO CRAZY, WHEN IT IS RAINING THEY STOP....SOMETIMES THEY WORK, SOMETIMES THEY DON'T. I HAVE TO SPEND TOO MUCH TIME TRYING TO GET THE CAR SYSTEMS TO WORK WHILE DRIVING THAT THIS IS AS DANGEROUS AS CAN BE. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OF THIS CAR IS A LEMON...AND HAS BEEN FROM THE START. I HAVE AT MOST ABOUT 9,000 MILES ON THIS CAR BUT STARTED NOTICING GLITCHES LONG BEFORE 6,000. THIS IS THE TOP OF THE LINE CAR IN THIS MODEL.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE IN MOTION ON A PUBLIC STREET/ HIGHWAY WHILE ATTEMPTING TO COMPRESS THE GAS PEDAL THE VEHICLE FAILS TO ACCELERATE INCREASING SPEED!! ALSO, AT TIME VEHICLE WILL SAY EMERGENCY BREAK IS MALFUNCTIONING AND THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ALSO ALERTS. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THIS CAR IS GOING FULL SPEED AND LOOSES POWER. HAVING TO PULL ASIDE AND RESTART THE VEHICLE ONCE OR MULTIPLE TIMES TO BRING IT BACK TO SAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS.

I GOT INTO THE TRUNK OF MY CIVIC (KEYLESS) AND WHEN I TRIED TO OPEN THE CAR, EVERYTHING HAD SHUT DOWN AND IT IS LOCKED AND WON'T RESPOND TO THE EMERGENCY KEY OR THE FOB. THIS BEGAN 2 DAYS AGO AND I SEE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS O THE INTERNET OF THE SAME PROBLEM. IT WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. NOT BEING ABLE TO GET INTO MY CAR HERE IN THE ARIZONA DESERT COULD BE A SERIOUE PROBLEM.

THIS IS MY SECOND TIME. PARKED CAR IN GARAGE ,AFTER FEW HOURS TRIED TO TURN ON.WHEN WE TRY TO START IT WONTS, BUT THE SIGN POPS UP SAYING ELECTRICAL PARKING BRAKE ERROR..CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TWICE.LUCKY CAR WAS IN GARAGE WHEN BOTH INCIDENT HAPPENED.TOOK IT TO DEALER TWICE .TODAY WE PICKED IT UP FOUND DFTC U3OOO-49,ECU INTERNAL CIRCUIT FAILURE.THEY PERFORMED SOFTWARE UPDATE.THEY SAID IT IS OK THIS TIME.CAN HAPPEN AGAIN.HOW CAN THIS PROBLEM BE DEALT? MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS CAR AND SHE IS MOVING TO COLLEGE IN AUGUST AND WILL NEED A CAR.HOPE THIS PROBLEM IS DEALT QUICKLY.IF NOT WILL NEED TO REPLACE ANOTHER CAR.I FEEL THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR HER TO USE.

MY CAR WAS PARKED AND I TRIED TO TURN MY CAR ON AND I STEPPED ON MY FOOT BRAKE IT FELT REAL STIFF THAN I ATTEMPTED TO PUSH THE START BUTTON BUT MY CAR FAILED TO START. SEVERAL ERROR CODES POPPED UP ON MY DASHBOARD. (BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM, POWER STEARING SYSTEM (EPS) PROBLEM VEHICLE STABILITY ASSISST (VSA) PEONLEM, HILL START ASSISST PROBLEM, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, EMISSIONS PROBLEM.
