    I own a 2006 honda civic. The winter of 2007-2008 the car would fishtail almost uncontrollably on snow and ice - not a snow or ice storm necessarily, but really whenever there was snow cover or ice on the roads. We changed tires - twice. The winter of 2008-2009, we were still having the same problem. This time, the dealership suggested an alignment. We had that done, but the tech's who did the alignment would not…

    A class action lawsuit was pursued and settled with honda corporation in december 2013 related to uneven/excessive tire wear on 2006 honda civics. It was related to faulty control arms. I missed the deadline to file a claim (january 16, 2014), but i believe this is a problem that honda should be responsible to correct. My civic has had 3 sets of tires since i purchased it used in 2006. 2 tires were replaced at…

    Recently thought my car sounded louder than usual upon acceleration at 40 mph and above but didn't' seem to be from engine or transmission and i wasn't too sure if it always sounded like that. Several days later i received a recall notice for abs rear wheel sensor o-ring inspection, which said it could affect my rear wheel bearings if the 0-ring was defective. I brought my car to a dealer to have this inspected and…

    Multiple sets of tires replaced due to premature tire wear on rear tires. Honda tsb 08-001 recognizes geometry issue of negative camber on the vehicle. This is a safety concern for me as i didn't know the tires were wearing prematurely until i had the tires inspected. The handling is affected due to a roaring or thumping vibration coming from the rear of the vehicle. New tires wear in less than 10,000 miles causing…

    Tsb 08-001 - rear negative camber is caused by the rear upper control arm for both rear wheels. As a result, the geometry of the wheel's position will cause excessive wear on the rear tires resulting in bald and cupped tires. This wear can cause early failure of the rear tires and loss of control of the car for the driver.

    I am on my 8th pair of tires with my vehicle. My tires wear out prematurely and cause heavy vibrations while driving. The tires get noticeable flat spots on them and the tread wears very thin on the inside of the tires. 2 years ago we became extremely close to have one tire blow out on us as it was worn almost through the entire tire. I believe this is a very dangerous problem that honda should deal with. They have…
