Sun visor fell down on drivers side scaring driver & could have caused accident. Now the visor will not stay up & blocks visibility. This is a know prior defect & it appears they are still using the same parts. Why hasn't this been addressed. Is another class action suit needed to call honda on this? It's a safety hazard. *tr

My 2010 civic has 40,000 miles now. I have had to replace the windshield due to the factory seal leaking and causing water to come into my car. Hendrick honda in bradenton, fl advised it was due to "luck of the draw...very bad luck" and "i've never seen this happen before." however, it was not covered by warranty. In the state of fl your car insurance will pay to replace your windshield only if there is a crack in…

Sun visor cracks because of hot weather. The similar incident happened before for honda civic model from 2006 to 2009. I believe honda still used some defective sun visors on some honda civic vehicles. *tr

The first sunvisor broke just before the warranty expired. It wasn't much of problem to get it replaced. About a year and a half later the second sunvisor broke and came off while i was driving. This is a safety hazard. It could have caused an accident. After contacting american honda the sunvisor was replaced for 17.00. However, i refrain from using it because i worry that it will fall apart again. Both times it…

The sun visor has split open and will not stay in place up against the head liner creating a visual obstruction. I have read about a class action suit related to visors that includes the 2009 civic, but not the 2010 model. *tr

I have replaced my driver's side visor 3 times because each time it breaks. The first time it broke the dealership replaced it for free because it was still under warranty. The second time they said my warranty had just expired so i would have to pay. The third time my brother bought the visor and installed it for me. I have not replaced it again after seeing that these visors simply will not last. I obviously tried…

Driver side sun visor broke simply by pulling it down to shield the sun. Both the driver and passenger sun visors had been replaced already, so this is the third time. Once it broke, it just hang there. Since it does not stay up or down, it partially blocks the view out of the front windshield. It is quite dangerous to drive in this condition. You can not move it to the side either, once it broke open. My biggest…

The sun visor on my 2010 civic is broken. The glue holding together the plastic molding and the fabric within the visor has deteriorated which makes the visor not able to close properly and continuously fall down. I have found info online that there was a class action lawsuit against honda in 2011 for most civics between 2006-2009 however since mine is a 2010 it does not fall into that category. Yet is does seem as…

Leaving nashville, tn, our new honda civic 2010 rear windshield exploded, completely shattering, but remaining intact. Impossible to see out the rear window due to this. No foreign object came into contact with the windshield. Honda suspects faulty glass. *kb

Driver side and passenger side sun visors are in the down position and have lost their mechanical ability to be placed in its resting position against the headliner. The driver side sun visor in its down position is a safety hazard for the driver because visibility is limited. With limited visibility while driving, this poses a serious danger for the driver while operating the motor vehicle. *tr
