My abs, vsa and power steering lights all came on at the same time. Honda dealer told me it costs $1,600 to 'replace' abs control module which is obscene as this is clearly a safety issue, and he didn't even mention a fix for vsa or power steering. I tested a hard brake and abs failed. What if my power steering fails during a turn and i hit someone? Honda service tech said scans could not indicate a fix. Google /…

I have noticed that my honda civic sometimes feels as if you were driving standard. You press on the gas peddal and it hesistates to go and then goes immediately which makes it feel as if you are shifting gears. (used to drive standard). It does this all the time. I noticed that it does it more often when the econ button is on and less when the econ button is off but it does do it all the time. It does this while…

Also wasn't able to select the steering, the speed control brakes and the wheels/tires. The car has completely shut off while driving going 60 on the highway. Since i've got this car it's been a huge pain and has been in the shop nearly the entire time i've had it. I'm currently making monthly payments on it and have had the car since 2017 and have put over $9,000 worth of work into it.. It finally has stopped…

Abs, traction control light, & power steering lights illuminated at the same time and can not be reset. The vehicle's traction control and abs systems are not engaged when these lights are present, thus causing a safety hazard. These lights first appeared while backing out of driveway on dry/sunny day. These lights have remained on since, and will not go off even after ecu reset.

For the second time in as many months, i have been driving my car when suddenly the vsa warming light has come on, followed by the transmission fluid warning light. The first time this occurred, i pulled into the parking lot of my apartment complex and checked the owners manual for my civic for any information. It suggested that i wait several minutes and the restart the car. I waited for 10 minutes and restarted my…

The check power steering assembly lights were flashing on the information board .this is extremely dangerous and unacceptable…

All of these issues have presented themselves while the car was on and in motion. Dear honda: recall the airbags asap!! #1 sign of issue @ 45 miles: passenger airbag light/sensor would blink on-off intermittently (all the time) only while driving. Back driver window works intermittently. #2 @ 15000 miles: steering wheel controls intermittently worked backwards (volume up would turn down & vice versa.) it wasn't…
