When turning the windshield wipers off, they intermittently do not park at the correct location at the bottom of the windshield, or they continue to run. When you try to put it in the park position, it just keeps running, and lands in the middle of the windshield. The symptom is usually more noticeable in colder weather; however, it is difficult to reproduce. If you have a vehicle that reportedly has this symptom,…

My wipers won't park in the "park location" (they stay in the middle of windshield) and when i press the switch upwards for one swipe, the wipers will continue for multiple cycles and then finally stop in a random spot on the windshield. Occasionally, all three speeds on the switch(hi,med,low), are all the same (low speed). Happens while driving or stationary. Has become a nuisance in very light rain because it will…

The wiper motor or wiper control module is known to stop working correctly on 2007 honda civic. When the temperature lowers during winter the wipers do not seat correctly and sometimes will not turn off after being used. They will sometimes stop in the middle of the windshield blocking the drivers view until they are moved again. There is no way to make sure that the wipers stop in the correct parked spot. This…

The driver side sun visor fell apart. This started about a year ago. It started off being annoying. We had to manually hold the visor together to put it up or down. It finally broke apart and can't even be put back on.

On my 2007 civic ex, the driver side visor popped open at the parting line near the hinge and the plastic ribs inside broke. It does not want to snap back into place in any direction (front, back, or side). It hangs so low that it is blocking the view of the road (front windshield and driver side window) at all times. I am very disappointed with honda that it is not listed as a safety concern...because it is.

I was driving down the road carefully because i take this road almost everyday. This road has been damaged for a long time now and hasn't been fixed yet. All of a sudden my car hits a huge pot hole, it couldn't have been seen due to how dark this road is at night. Both wheels on the left side popped and my front windshield crack in the middle due to the hard impact. *tr

Wipers will not park in correct spot blocking visibility, also will not stop and can continue going for minutes on end after being switched off. This is very distracting to my driving. Feel honda should own up to this issue since it is a common problem on many of their vehicles.

While driving my windshield wipers would not turn off. Then when they finally did shut off they were parked in the middle of my windshield. They also have turned on randomly while driving. This happened all week and it's been raining. I took it to the honda dealership today and they had to replace the wiper motor which cost $400. After researching online this seems to be a common issue with honda civics and it…

If they do decide to stop running, they stop at various points and often stops in the middle of my view making it hard to see around them. The intermittent setting also will change from working to not working (constantly running) following the same stopping issues. I've researched this online and it seems to be a…

I called my honda dealer and he confirmed there was a recall that applied to some 2007 honda civics but that my vin wasn't part of…
