2016 Honda Civic

I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2016 CIVIC 1.5T EX-L WITH 1,000 MILES AND A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. WE NOTICED THE ENGINE OIL ALL OVER OUR GARAGE. IT'S BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE, PROBABLY SINCE WE GOT IT, BUT WE DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL TODAY THAT THE OIL WAS COMING FROM OUR BRAND NEW CAR. AFTER OUR OWN INVESTIGATION, WE RULED OUT ALL OF OUR OTHER CARS AND TOOK IT INTO DEALERSHIP TODAY.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN A SMALL PEBBLE HIT THE BOTTOM DRIVERS PORTION OF THE WINDSHIELD, THUS PUTTING A SMALL DING IN THE GLASS, HOWEVER WITHIN 4 HOURS I HAD A CRACK 28 INCHES LONG, I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES IN MY LIFE N HAVE HAD THINGS HIT MY WINDSHIELD AND IT NEVER CAUSED A CRACK. AFTER REVIEWING THE CONSUMERS AFFAIR WEB SITE I NOTICED THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE LIKE ME, AND EASILY CRACKED WINDSHIELD ON THERE 2016 CIVIC BEFORE THEY HAVE EVEN MADE THERE FIRST CAR PAYMENT, AND THE FACT THAT THERE ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER SO WHETHER IT OBSTRUCTS YOUR VIEW OR NOT YOU CAN'T EVEN GET A REPLACEMENT YET, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE CUT CORNERS IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THERE GLASS OR NOT BUT I BELIEVE THAT THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN MORE THEN A LITTLE PEBBLE BEFORE THEY CRACK LIKE THIS, AND I HOPE YOU GUYS INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS INJURED BECAUSE THE CRACK CAUSES A TYPE OF MAGNIFYING EFFECT WHEN U TRY TO SEE THRU IT WHILE DRIVING N IT DEFINITELY OBSTRUCTS YOUR VIEW

VEHICLE HAS REPEATEDLY THROWN ERRORS WITH WARNINGS TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND HAVE IT INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAS ALREADY BEEN TO THE SHOP TWICE FOR THE PROBLEM. IN BOTH CASES HONDA INSTALLED AN UPDATED VSA MODULATOR THEY CLAIMED WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. IT HAS NOT. NOT THE LOCAL DEALER DOESN'T EVEN WANT TO SEE THE VEHICLE AS THEY TELL ME THEIR IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO FOR US. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE EMAILED HONDA CORPORATE TO HAVE A REGIONAL REP CONTACT US. IT HAS BEEN 4 DAYS SINCE. THEY SAY THE VEHICLE IS SAFE, BUT YET THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT THEY CANNOT CORRECT, AND MY CAR IS NOT ALONE. PLEASE LOOK AT THESE TWO SITES TO SEE EXAMPLES: HTTP://HONDACIVICPROBLEMS.COM AND HTTP://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/TPMS-ABS-BRAKE-SYSTEM-ACC-FREAK-OUT.1002/ EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. EACH TIME THE ERROR MESSAGES APPEAR AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE. EACH TIME THE WARNINGS INSTRUCT YOU NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. ERRORS INCLUDE: CMBS PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, TIRE PRESSURE LOW, AND CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM.

BOUGHT THE CAR IN MID FEBRUARY AND IT BEGAN TO READ "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM" ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED ON AND STATIONARY A FEW WEEKS AFTER. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN MARCH AND THEY "CLEARED" THE CODES AND TEST DROVE IT. IN APRIL, THE SAME ERROR APPEARED BUT NOW WITH MORE ERRORS SUCH AS "TIRE PRESSURE LOW, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM AND ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM." I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AGAIN AND THEY REPLACED THE "ABS MODULATOR" AND "CLEARED" THE CODES. ONCE AGAIN A MONTH LATER (JUNE), THE SAME ERRORS ARE APPEARING.

CAR DOORS WILL SOMETIMES REFUSE TO UNLOCK / ACKNOWLEDGE REMOTE CONTROL AFTER THE TRUNK IS CLOSED. THE CAR'S COMPUTER CRASHES. VIDEO OF ME EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=NNBIWHK2TBG IT'S DIFFICULT TO REPRO, BUT HERE ARE THE STEPS: 1. OPEN THE TRUNK. 2. CLOSE THE TRUNK 3. OBSERVE THAT BOTH TURN SIGNALS ARE SOLIDLY LIT 4. OBSERVE THAT THE CAR NO LONGER RESPONDS TO THE REMOTE. AT THIS POINT, THE ONLY WAY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR IS TO TAKE OUT THE EMERGENCY KEY - WHICH WILL THEN TRIGGER THE THEFT ALARM. LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS: 1.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SERVICE SHOP 5 TIMES FOR "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE LOW", AND "CHARGING SYSTEM FAILURE" WITH NO RESOLVE BY THE DEALERSHIP. THESE MESSAGES WERE ALL ON THE RADIO DISPLAY PRIOR TO TODAY TO WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE FALSE FLAGS. I AM NOT SURE HOW A "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" ANYWHERE ON A DASH IS A FALSE FLAG. THESE MESSAGES GENERALLY OCCURRED UPON STARTUP BUT MANY TIMES WHILE DRIVING. LAST NIGHT, ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WOULD NOT START UP AT THIS TIME.

THERE ARE THREE PROBLEMS I WANT TO COMPLAIN: 1) INFORMATION SCREEN FLICKERS FOR 10 MINUTES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE. I SENT IT TO DEALER SHOP, BUT THEY SAID THAT THEY NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM, AND HAD NO SOLUTION. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AT LEAST THREE TIMES PER WEEK IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. 2) INFORMATION SCREEN SHOWS SIX DIFFERENT WARNING MESSAGES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, INCLUDING ABS FAILURE, VSA FAILURE, LOW BATTERY LEVEL, COLLISION MITIGATION FAILURE, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE ETC. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE REASON THEY TOLD ME IS THAT THEY HAD ONE OF MY TIRES REPLACED ONE WEEK BEFORE AND TPMS HAD NOT BEEN RESET CORRECTLY. HOWEVER, WHY IT TOOK TWO WEEKS FOR THE SYSTEM TO GIVE THE WARNING MESSAGES INSTEAD OF RIGHT AFTER TIRE GOT CHANGED? 3) TPMS FAILED TO DETECT FLAT TIRE. I WAS DRIVING A CAR WITH ONE FLAT TIRE FOR 1 MILE, AND THE TPMS EVEN FAILED TO DETECT THE FLAT TIRE.

COMPUTER SYSTEM HAD A MAJOR MALFUNCTION, TRIGGERING 6 DIFFERENT WARNINGS, AND AN AUDIBLE MESSAGE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER AND PARK THE VEHICLE AND HAVE A DEALER INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GAS. MY FAMILY WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH THE CAR IN ACCESSORY MODE, LISTENING TO THE RADIO. AFTER FINISHING UP FUELING, ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATER, I RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE. I GOT IN, SHUT THE DOOR, PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PRESSED THE BUTTON TO START THE VEHICLE, PUT ON MY SEAT BELT, AND THEN SAW THE MESSAGES. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WITH THE CAR ON AND READING THE MESSAGES, A VOICE STARTED TO TALK AND TELL ME, TO STOP THE VEHICLE, PARK IT, AND HAVE A DEALER LOOK AT IT. THE 6 MESSAGES ON THE CENTER DISPLAY SAID VARIOUS THINGS. SUCH AS THEY WERE TITLED: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM THE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM CMBS PROBLEMS ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM TIRE PRESSURE LOW BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM THE ALARMING NUMBER OF PROBLEMS ABOUT THE BRAKE SYSTEM ALONE, TELLS ME THIS VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN. COMBINE THAT WITH THE AUDIABLE MESSAGE ABOUT PULLING OVER AND PARKING THE VEHICLE, NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND IS GOING TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS PROPERLY LOOKED AT. THE DEALER DID LOOK AT IT, AND SAID IT WAS THE VSA MODULATOR, AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, THERE IS CASE AFTER CASE OF THIS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM FOUND ONLINE. YET PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES, INCLUDING MINE ARE BEING SENT BACK ONTO THE ROAD IN THESE VEHICLES OF WHICH HONDA HAS NOT AND CANNOT PROVIDE A FIX FOR BECAUSE IT, ITSELF DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. ANY THEREFORE NO ONE KNOWS IF THEIR CAR IS CRYING WOLF, AND JUST WAITING TO KILL THEM. I DON'T WANT MY CAR IF I CAN'T TRUST IT. I JUST CAN"T WAGER MY FAMILIES LIVES ON THAT. THEY ARE WILLING TO TELL US TO DRIVE AROUND IN THE VEHICLE EVEN BEFORE THE FIRST REPAIR IS TRIED. THE ERRORS ARE RELATED TO BRAKES
