    I had a car accident on the huntingdon side of pine groves mountain on pa 26 south. I drove a honda civic 06 lx. When i was going down the mountain, i applied the brake normally to slow down before a curve when the speed was at 60 mph, but my car was drifting, not like hydroplaning at all. There was no water to cause that but it rained five to six hours before the accident. During the whole course of incident, the…

    The sun visor on my 2006 honda civic si trim fell off while parked. It has nearly fallen off while driving. It is totally nonadjustable while driving because it will fall off. Honda did not inform me about a class action settlement involving an extension of warrant to 100k/7 years. My mileage is now outside of their extended warranty period. This is a continuing issue with all honda civics in this generation and…

    The paint is disappearing from the roof and the sides of my back windows. Honda will do nothing since their paint recall is over. I received other recalls in the mail. Never a paint one. I am not sure exactly when the paint problem began. Probably around 2012-2014.

    My 2006 honda civic has stalled on me 7 times now. Every time it stalls, i am at a stoplight or stop sign and at a complete stop. The engine goes into idle mode and when the light changes or i can go, i take my foot off the brake and try or start to press the gas. Most of the time i don't even have the opportunity to press the gas pedal before the car stalls. The car completely shuts off. I have noticed the last two…

    My 2006 honda civic is eating through rear tires. The tires thread on the inside is wearing out. The alignment has been checked and reading through the blogs, a lot of people are having the same problem. I don't know what else to do. I don't feel safe in the car. The dealership (honda) is not recognizing this problem. *tt

    The car loses power upon acceleration and going up a hill from a complete standstill. The car at times can not climb up a hill. This causes a safety issue. I have discussed this honda and i was told that "given that there was not a computer record in the memory there was not a problem. On the freeway the engine revs upon acceleration without any increase in speed. I think the battery electrical assist system is…

    My paint on my car was coming off. Honda was supposed to repaint it. They had used some new environmentally friendly paint on their cars and many cars were having problems with it. Honda, costa mesa took photos of my car and supposedly booked me down for a date to bring my car for a few months later before i was supposed to get married. That was done because i needed my car for transportation at that time and if…

    Driver and passenger sun visors come apart at the hard-plastic seams and fail to retract back into the headliner once they are engaged, leaving them blocking driver's view at all times. They cannot be adjusted to any gradual positioning. They simply hang straight down. Honda admitted the problem and has said they only warranted replacement for 7 years. When car was in warranty, dealer promised honda would replace as…

    Sun visors have malfunctioned. I am unable to lift the visors back to the "up" position. I fear that this will cause an accident. There have been people who have entered the vehicle and it there head because the visor is stuck in the "down" position.

    Sun visor started to split open two years ago at only 30,000 miles, problem has been getting worse, and now it is at the point where it just dangles in front of the eyes and won't even stay put. I have to move it to the side everytime i'm driving. Apparently, it is not covered under warranty, so i'll have to pay from my pocket to get it fixed.

    In august of 2006, i purchased a 2006 honda civic from bob howard automall in oklahoma city, oklahoma. Little did i know that this car was flawed from the beginning and honda america knew it and did nothing to let any consumers know about this defect. The flaw in the car is that the rear axle is flawed and is causing tires to wear abnormally, thus causing flats and blowouts that consumers are unaware off. Currently…

    I took the car to a honda dealership because the back tires were wearing out prematurely on the inside. They replaced the upper control arms with the "supposedly" correct control arms marked c and did an alignment, but that did not solve the problem! I just bought a full set of new tires in july of 2010 and my car was aligned and i am about to need new tires again! In addition, the driver's visor fell off and was…

    My husband and i just finished and extensive search for a new car. I found very few cars that were comfortable to me due to the active head restraints. I am five feet four inches tall and i like my seat to be more upright. Unfortunately, when you put the seats in this position, the head rest forces your head down, chin to chest. This would not be a problem if i were a man with large shoulder muscles or if i liked my…
