    I was involved in a major car accident on the freeway involving my 2017 honda civic. Traffic was at a slow/stop on the freeway and a tahoe collided into my vehicle. I was sandwiched in-between a nissan titan and chevy tahoe. My car was totaled and sustained significant damage to both the front and back. Despite this major impact, none of my airbags deflated.

    There is a rotten smell in the rear trunk every time when/after it rains. From my observations, the odor is coming from the spare tire well, not the trunk liner. The odor can be removed by spraying odor remover and have it ventilated. However, the next time when it rains, this odor comes back again. I am afraid that this repeated issue indicates water clogged somewhere beneath the spare time well.

This is just city driving as well. I have seen many other posts online of other owners experiencing the same issue as well as the windshield easily cracking.

    When pulling into a parking spot i put the car into park but the car kept moving forward, over a sidewalk and into a building. I put the car in reverse and could not stop the car until it hit another object. Had damage to the front bumper and grill.

    At about 10000 miles i noticed ripples in my rear roof pillars. Honda acknowledges that it is a manufacturing error and fixed it with body fill. I am worried if the roof will flex a dent like that under load that it may not be structurally sound.

    I took my car in due to the recall letter i received at my residence addressed to me id# 14-034 stating cloud paint on roof and trunk and an extension was given. I remember it was a tuesday i took in because they specifically told me on the phone that is when pictures could be taken at the dealer and then sent in for approvals. I had some other things done on my car and there is record of it. However they said my…
