    I was pulling into the parking lot, when the car started to accelerate on its own! I push the brake pedal to the max and it kept on going, over cement stoppers, grass, and finally a tree stop it from continuing! And i am not a zenior citizen yet!

    While washing my 2 day old car a chunk of paint blows off the lower kick panel. Dealer told me it was my fault and they weren't going to pay for it. I told them they could have the car back.

    The front bumpers on all 2016 to 2018 honda civics are not secured properly, hond ais aware of the issue but has no fix for this.
