2016 Honda Civic

PURCHASED A NEW 2016 CIVIC TOURING IN MAY 2016. WITHIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS I WAS HAVING SMALL ELECTRICAL ISSUES SUCH AS SCREENS GOING BLACK, REBOOTING, AND STEREO NOT WORKING. I WOULD GET A FAILURE WARNING ON THE DASH ONCE IN AWHILE (DIFFERENT EACH TIME). CAR FAILED TO START ON JULY 26TH 2016. ALL SCREENS WERE FLASHING ERROR MESSAGES. CAR WOULD NOT START. I CALLED THE DEALER AND HAD THE CAR TOWED. DEALER CLAIMED THEY HAVE NEVER SEEM THIS PROBLEM. THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND STATED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG, AND THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I WOULD CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME SMALL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR EVERY SO OFTEN. UNTIL, THE CAR SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP BY ITSELF AND COMPUTER TOOK 100% CONTROL OF THE CAR. I COULDN'T STEER, ACCELERATE, OR CONTROL THE CAR AT ALL. I NEARLY GOT REAR ENDED IN AN INTERSECTION. THERE WAS NOT A CAR DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE TO BRAKE IN ORDER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. AFTER THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP I REGAINED CONTROL AGAIN AND THE CAR OPERATED NORMAL. SOON AFTER, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR I RECEIVED THE ALL THE ERROR CODES AGAIN AND IT THE CAR WOULDN'T START. I AGAIN CALLED THE DEALER AND HAD IT TOWED. DEALER CANNOT TELL ME WHY THE CAR SELF BRAKED AND CANNOT REPLICATE IT. I HAVE AN OPEN CASE# WITH HONDA OF AMERICA. I HAVE TOLD BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA OF AMERICA THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER ARE BOTH SCARED FOR THEIR SAFETY TO DRIVE IT. NO ONE FROM MY FAMILY INCLUDING MYSELF WILL BE DRIVING THE CAR EVER AGAIN, NOR CAN I SELL IT TO SOMEONE ELSE. THEY NEED TO PURCHASE THE CAR BACK FROM ME AND FIND OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS TO ENSURE NO ONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED FROM THIS HAPPENING AGAIN.

BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. WHEN CAR IS STARTED, IT RANDOMLY MAKES A MECHANICAL GRINDING NOISE. IT IS GETTING WORSE WITH TIME AND BEGINNING TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN. I'VE TAKEN IT TO HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY HAVE EVEN REPLACED THE STARTER WITH NO SOLUTION. THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT AND TO WAIT FOR A RECALL. CAR IS BEGINNING TO IDLE HIGH AND JERK BACK AND FORTH WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC.

I PURCHASED MY 2016 CIVIC EX IN NOVEMBER 2015. VERY SOON AFTER I NOTICED 4 NOTIFICATIONS ON THE TOUCHSCREEN REGARDING BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THOSE NOTIFICATIONS WERE FROM MANUFACTURING AND WERE MOST LIKELY NOT CLEARED DURING INTAKE WALKTHROUGH. IN JUNE I STARTED NOTICING A RELAY CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM UNDER THE STEERING COLUMN THAT PERSISTED WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, OR WHEN I REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL WHILE AT A STOP. AS SOON AS I DEPRESS THE BRAKE PETAL THE CLICK STOPS. AS OF TODAY I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE 4 TIMES TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND IT CONTINUES. FIRST THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH AND AS SOON AS I LEFT THE PARKING LOT THE VEHICLE BEGAN CLICKING. THEY REPLACED THE VSA MODULATOR AND INSISTED THE CLICKING HAD CEASED. THE CLICKING BEGAN AS SOON AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. THE THIRD TIME THE SERVICE TECHS WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE AND THEREFORE NOT ABLE TO INVESTIGATE OR REPAIR. CLICKING BEGAN AS SOON AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP AND CONTINUED THERE AFTER. AGAIN THE 4 BRAKE FAILURE NOTIFICATIONS APPEARED ON THE TOUCHSCREEN SO I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE VEHICLE. EVERY REPAIR ATTEMPT HAS BEEN SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND I CONTINUE TO HAVE BRAKE FAILURE NOTIFICATIONS AND AN ISSUE THE TECHS ARE UNABLE TO REPAIR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE CONTINUING TO DRIVE MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN IN THIS VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM, AND AIR BAG SRS WARNING INDICATORS FLASHED, AND THE LANE KEEP ASSIST WARNING INDICATOR DEACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS AND GAUGES FLICKERED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND WAS TOWED TO A DEALER. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE, BUT TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT AT THE DEALER. THE CONTACT PLACED TWO CALLS TO THE MANUFACTURER, LEFT A VOICE MESSAGE, AND WAS WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

THE COVER ON THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT AT TOP CENTER OF THE REAR WINDOW ON THE COUPE VERSION OF THIS CAR DOES NOT STAY ADHERED TO THE WINDOW. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE I VISIBILITY IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. BESIDES REDUCING VISUAL SIGHT AREA. AT NIGHT THE RED LIGHT UPON BRAKE APPLICATION IS BOTH DISTRACTING OBLITERATES ANY OTHER VIEWING OUT OF THE READ WINDOW. DEALER ATTEMPT TO FIX WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. PART NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED FOR BETTER INSTALLATION METHOD THAN DOUBLE SIDED TAPE ON THE EDGE OF THE PART. MANY OTHER COUPE OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CIVIC EQUIPPED WITH FOUR HANKOOK TIRES, SIZE: 215/50R/17 91H (NA). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED A BLOW OUT, WHICH DAMAGED THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DOT NUMBER WAS NOT AVAILIABLE. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

I LEASED THE HONDA CIVIC 2016 AT WOODLAND HILLS HONDA. IT WAS AFTER LEASING DATE, WITHIN 24-48 HOURS TIME, I RETURNED TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP TO EXPLAIN THAT I DID NOT HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING THAT THE HONDA CIVIC 2016 DID NOT COME WITH A CD PLAYER AND ONLY OFFERED AN AUXILIARY CORD OUTLET TO WORK THE ENTIRE SOUND SYSTEM BY MY CELL PHONE. THE CAR DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THAT THEY WERE UNWILLING TO HELP ME WITH A NEW CAR UNLESS I WANTED TO PAY MORE MONEY BUT I COULD NOT GET A NEW CAR AT THE SAME PRICE. I ARGUED FOR MONTHS WITH THE DEALERSHIP THAT BEING FORCED TO WORK THE AUDIO SYSTEM AND RUN MY MAPS FOR NAVIGATION THROUGH MY CELL PHONE POSED A SERIOUS THREAT OF DISTRACTED DRIVING. THE CAR IS BUILT IN SUCH A WAY, THAT THE DRIVER IS ONLY GIVEN AN OPTION TO USE THE CELL PHONE TO OPERATE AUDIO AND NAVIGATION. THE WAY THAT THE CAR IS BUILT, WITHOUT THE CD PLAYER, AND ONLY AN AUXILIARY CORD TO PLUG INTO MY PHONE TO WORK THE SOUND SYSTEM INTERFACE CONFLICTS WITH THE CALIFORNIA ANTI-TEXTING LAW VC 23123.5. BEING FORCED TO WORK MY SOUND SYSTEM AND MAPS FOR NAVIGATION ON MY CELL PHONE IS THE SAME SPIRIT AS TO WHAT AND WHY THIS IS AGAINST THE LAW. IT IS DISTRACTED DRIVING. SALESMEN ARE NOT CLEARLY EXPLAINING THAT YOU ARE BUYING A CAR WITH NO CD PLAYER AND YOU NEED TO WORK YOUR MUSIC FROM YOUR CELL PHONE. THERE IS ALSO MORE CONFUSION AT THE POINT OF SALE BECAUSE THERE ARE OTHER CARS THAT COME WITH BOTH THE AUX CORD AND ALSO THE CD PLAYER SUCH AS THE HONDA ACCORD 2016 PILOT FOR EXAMPLE. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, I BELIEVED I WAS BUYING A CAR WITH BOTH THE AUX CORD AND THE CD PLAYER. LATER, IS WHEN I LEARNED, I LEASED THE VEHICLE WITH ONLY THE AUX CORD OPTION. I REQUESTED TO END MY CONTRACT ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AS I BELIEVED THE CAR WAS A POLICE MAGNET. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE A CAR THAT MAKES ME DO SOMETHING TO ATTRACT OFFICERS. THIS IS A SAFETY AND LEGAL CONCERN. TICKETED ON 8/31/16.
