These products have known issues that people have listed online. My car is out of…

    Car has 19800 miles. This monday will be the 4th time i will be at dealer because the a/c is once again blowing warm air. After the 3rd time i switched dealers. They replaced the lines and that was short lived. Just before the warranty ended i purchased an extended warranty for $1500. I live in florida and this has been a nightmare.

    Takara recall i bought the car march 2016. Summers get pretty hot in ohio so of course i have to use the ac. Worked perfectly that year. Well the following year when i went to use it it never worked at all. Blew out warm air and never cooled down. So when i contacted the dealer they said " maybe you have a pin hole in a line, maybe compressor, low freon or something else." i was pretty upset that it wasn't under…

    This car's horn really can not be heard by another driver. I really feel this is a safety hazard. I can't imagine a complaint has not been filed. It really is dangerous.

    Trunk spontaneously opens. It hasn't happened while driving. I have taken it to the dealer, contacted honda's headquarters. They are unable to reproduce the issue so cannot fix it. There are others on the civic online forum who are experiencing this issue. This is a security issue where i cannot keep anything in my trunk. This is not right. One night after i got home, i went back out to my car and the trunk was…

    American honda is the most fraudulent company i ever dealt with. Within the 1st year, a serious problem developed with the trunk, which randomly opens for no reason, sometimes overnight, sometimes while driving on the highway, which is incredibly dangerous. We took the car 2x to the delray beach dealer , & it claimed itcouldn't identify or replicate the problem, & then that they fixed it. They did nothing & the…

There is no impacted point in the glass just the splintering of the glass. Safelite had to make a small hole just to do the repair. Is this windshield defective? It happen to my son's girlfriend's 2017 honda civic as well. We both just purchased the vehicles. There are numerous complaints…

    Today i purchased a new (demo/4,900+ miles) 2016 honda civic. While the salesman was demonstrating how to use the phone/connectivity features it was discovered the phone system was malfunctioning. I was advised to try it again when i drove off the lot to take my brand new car home and it may work when i got away from the lot. It did not. The phone is non working and the voice recognition is useless.
