    The a/c relay switch has been replaced several times and now i'm having to replace the actual ac switch on the compressor due to it bogging my engine down every time i turn it on and it still won't blow cold air. This has been a continued issue and i've seen a lot of post online about it. So why hasn't it been recalled or something done about it.

    Takata recall. My honda civic 2009 lx sedan is giving me a very hard time. Its air condition turns on but stops working right after 10 mints as the compressor gets hot and it starts blowing hot air. This issue is with almost all vehicles of the same generation and honda is not going to own it and says that the cars are out of warranty now. Please look into this matter.

    Tpms indicator is always on. Have taken to dealer to get service but they have said it's an electrical glitch cannot be fixed. This presents a safety issue if a real problem occurs not knowing when tires need adjustment.

    While traveling down surface streets, i hit a bump and my already sagging flip visor dropped down and almost completely obstructed my view of the road. By the time i was able to grab and flip it back up, the cars in front of me had slowed significantly. I realize there has been a class action lawsuit for this known issue, however my vin is ~800 above the highest vin included. Honda is refusing to do anything to…

    Paint and clear coat in areas from front to rear, on hood, trunk and on roof, is thin, peeling, spotty, or down to the metal. Took to the dealer and got no satisfaction. Said that even though many others have same problems it is not a covered issue. How is that possible when i have read so many of the same complaints! Need it repainted.

    While driving the passenger side sun suddenly flipped/fell down and was just swinging. It seems that the inside of the visor somehow melted/cracked, and the visor became disconnected and loose while driving. I am thankful it was not the driver side visor, as it would have likely hit me in the face/obscured my vision and potentially resulted in an accident. There have been several recalls for honda sun visors;…
