What 523 owners told NHTSA about the 2017 Honda Civic Type R

SOMETIMES, WHEN TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT WILL NOT CRANK AND START. THE ELECTRIC POWER WILL COME ON (DASH BOARD ICONS, HEADLIGHTS, ETC.), BUT IT WILL NOT CRANK. IT TAKES FROM 2 TO 7 TURNS OF THE KEY, BEFORE IT CRANKS AND STARTS. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS SOMETIMES ONCE A WEEK, SOMETIMES 2 OR 3 TIMES. I TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALER FOR REPAIR. HOWEVER, ON THE DAY I TOOK IT IN, OF COURSE, IT WAS WORKING FINE. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT THEIR COMPUTER COULD NOT DIAGNOSIS IT, UNLESS THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE IT WAS HOOKED TO THE COMPUTER. HE TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK WHEN THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE, OR THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. I HAVE NOT RETURNED TO THE DEALER YET. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN IN EARLY JULY OF THIS YEAR. THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 36,000 MILES ON IT.

ON MY HONDA CIVIC I HAVE THE OIL DILUTION PROBLEM WHICH WAS VERIFIED BY A MECHANIC. WHEN I HAD THE OIL CHANGE THEY SAID GASOLINE CAME OUT WITH THE OIL. TWO DAYS BEFORE I WENT TO GET THE OIL CHANGE THE FUEL IN THE OIL CAUSED MY ENGINE TO STALL AND ME AND MY FRIEND ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY MANY CARS FLYING UP ON US. WE WERE BARELY ABLE TO GET JUST BARELY INCHES OFF THE FREEWAY BUT EVERY CAR CAME WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING OUR CAR AND ALMOST KILLING US. AFTER A WHILE THE CAR EVENTUALLY STARTED BACK UP AND WE CONTINUED DOWN THE FREEWAY ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR STALL AGAIN AND WE NEARLY GETTING HIT AGAIN BY ANOTHER CAR. I'M ACTUALLY AFRAID TO EVEN DRIVE MY CAR NOW AFTER THIS INCIDENT AND I'VE BEEN READING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND HONDA SHOULD RECALL MINE AND OTHERS CARS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE FOR THIS COULD CAUSE FATALITIES. I HAVE THE 1.5 L TURBO ENGINE BY THE WAY AND I'VE HEARD COMPLAINTS ABOUT OTHERS WITH THIS MOTOR WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY HOW THE FUEL MIXING WITH THE OIL CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL. ALL I KNOW IS CONSUMER REPORTS HAS OTHER PEOPLE MENTIONING THEIR ENGINE STALLING. I BELIEVE IT COULD BE SOMETHING THE ENGINE DETECTS IN THE OIL AND SHUTS THE ENGINE DOWN AS A WAY OF PROTECTING IT FROM POSSIBLE LOW OIL PRESSURE BECAUSE OF THE FUEL. BY THE WAY I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR FOR TWO YEARS AND THIS IS THE FIRST INCIDENT THAT HAS HAPPENED. RECENTLY OVER THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS I HAVEN'T BEEN DRIVING THAT MUCH AND THEREFORE THE OIL WAS DILUTING WITH THE FUEL MORE THAN NORMAL SO THAT MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT. AND ALSO I LIVE IN A HOT CLIMATE IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. HONDA THINKS THAT IT'S ONLY HAPPENING IN COLDER COLDER CLIMATES WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD. YOU CAN LITERALLY SMELL GASOLINE ON THE DIPSTICK AND THE DIPSTICK WAS 1/2 QT. OVER. STILL HAD 50% OIL LIFE.

AIR CONDITIONING CONTINUES TO NOT WORK RIGHT. COMPRESSOR REPLACED AND NOW A YEAR LATER SYSTEM LOOSES FREON AND BLOWS WARM AIR AGAIN. THESE CARS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND HAVE THE AC UNITS REPLACED AT NO CHARGE TO CONSUMERS.

NHTSA ODI 11366262

A/C STOP BLOWING COLD AIR. TOOK TO HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION TURNS OUT IT IS THE EVAPORATOR HAS A LEAK. WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER IT ANYMORE. 2,200 TO REPLACE IT'S DISAPPOINTING NEWER MODEL HAVING ISSUES LIKE THESE. MY 2010 HONDA CIVIC BLOWS COLD AFTER 10 YEAR. HONDA I HOPE THERE IS SOMETHING YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR CUSTOMER THAT ARE HAVING THESE SAME ISSUES, WE BELIEVED IN HONDA BUT SADLY IT IS DISAPPOINTING.

NHTSA ODI 11364858

THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPS BLOWING COLD AIR AT IDLE AND OCCASIONALLY EVEN WHEN DRIVING. THIS MAY POSE A SAFETY ISSUE IN HOTTER CLIMATES IF THERE ARE CHILDREN, ELDERLY PEOPLE, SPECIAL NEEDS PERSONS, OR PETS IN THE VEHICLE WHEN PARKED. READING THROUGH THE WORLD WIDE WEB OR INTERNET, THOUSANDS, IF NOT TENS OF THOUSANDS OF OWNERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE DUE TO A FAULTY AC CONDENSER FROM THE FACTORY. HONDA HAS EXTENDED THE CONDENSER WARRANTY BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A FULL RECALL OR WARRANTY ON THE OTHER PARTS/LABOR INVOLVED. FOR EXAMPLE, EXPENSIVE REFRIGERANTS, PARTS, AND LABOR. THE FIRST CONDENSER REPLACED IN JANUARY 2020 AND LOST ALL REFRIGERANT IN OCTOBER 2020. I TOOK MY CIVIC INTO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND GOT IT TESTED FOR A/C LEAKS IN SEPTEMBER 2020. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT THE CONDENSER BUT ANOTHER PART NEXT TO THE FIREWALL, COSTING 440 DOLLARS. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALERSHIP A FEW WEEKS LATER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO REFRIGERANT. I PAID OVER 300 DOLLARS TO GET THE A/C CHECKED AND THE TEST WAS DONE WITH A DYE SOLUTION THAT CAN BE SEEN BY UV LIGHT. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF LEAKS DURING THE DIAGNOSIS. THE REFRIGERANT SHOULD BE TESTED FURTHER OR HONDA SHOULD REPLACE ALL DEFECTIVE AIR CONDITIONING PARTS ALL AROUND. I KNOW THIS ISSUE WILL CONTINUE TO OCCUR BECAUSE OF UNDERLYING PROBLEMS WITH HONDA ORIGINAL MANUFACTURED A/C PARTS. VERY RESPECTFULLY, A WORRIED PARENT

THE A/C ON THESE VEHICLES STOP WORKING AFTER A WHILE. KNOW OTHER PEOPLE THAT OWN A 2016/2017 HONDA CIVIC AND THE A/C STOPS WORKING. WE'VE ALL TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO GET IT CHECKED OUT AND THEY TRY CHARGING AN ARM TO FIX IT. I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR FOR US CUSTOMERS TO BE BUYING FULL PRICE FOR THESE VEHICLES WHEN THEY KNOW THE AFFECTS THEY HAVE AND THEN STEAL FROM US TO GET IT FIXED.

THE A/C CONDENSER LOCATED IN THE CABIN DASH WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL EARLIER IN THE YEAR FOR HAVING A FREON LEAK IN THE CABIN. 6 MONTHS LATER THE A/C IS NOT WORKING AGAIN, AND THE DEALERSHIP SUSPECTS THAT THE EVAPORATOR HAS A LEAK. RESEARCHING ONLINE YIELDED ME SIMILAR RESULTS OF OWNERS REPORTING A CONDENSER LEAK AND THEN AN EVAPORATOR LEAK WITH FREON FLOWING INTO THE CABIN AIR. I ASSUME BEING IN A CLOSED CABIN WITH LEAKING FREON IS WHAT SPURRED A RECALL ON THE CONDENSERS AND, IN MY OPINION, THE EVAPORATOR SHOULD BE IN A SIMILAR SCENARIO

NHTSA ODI 11364207

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE ENGINE BEGAN LOSING POWER. SOON AFTER, MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP. I BARELY HAD ENOUGH POWER TO CLEAR THE BUSY FREEWAY. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO AUTONATION HONDA IN CHANDLER, AZ, WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DISCOVERED FUEL IN THE OIL. HE SAID HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM ON THIS 1.5 TURBO ENGINE, BUT NO FIX EXISTED. HE CHANGED THE OIL AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO ME. AFTER JUST A FEW MINUTES ONLINE, I DISCOVERED THE HISTORY OF THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE ISSUE. I KNOW HONDA SAYS IT ONLY HAPPENS IN COLD CLIMATES, BUT THAT DAY WAS OVER 100 DEGREES F. ALSO, THE OIL HAD BEEN CHANGED AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP APPROX. 6 WEEKS EARLIER AND ONLY 619 MILES BEFORE THE EVENT. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT OR ON THE FREEWAY IN CASE THIS HAPPENS AGAIN.

NHTSA ODI 11363722

DURING DRIVING OF THE VEHICLE AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WILL FAIL AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. THIS INCLUDES ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, POWER STEERING, BRAKE ASSIST AND MORE. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE VEHICLE BECOMES ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER AND HAS NEARLY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE. WHILE THE PREVIOUS OCCURRENCE HAPPENED AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH IF THIS OCCURRED ON THE INTERSTATE IT WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY RESULT IN A MAJOR CRASH AND INJURY.

NHTSA ODI 11363198

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WILL FAIL TO TURN ON. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO TURN ON, ACCELERATOR PEDAL WILL HAVE .5-1 SECOND DELAY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM STOP/IDLE CAUSING NEAR COLLISIONS. SINCE PURCHASE, THERE HAVE BEEN 10-15 EPISODES WHERE I ATTEMPT TO TURN ON ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WHILE ON THE FREEWAY BUT THE SYSTEM WILL NOT ENGAGE. I ONLY GET 3 BEEPS AND AN "ACC OFF" INDICATION ON THE DASH. ONCE THIS HAPPENS, FOR THE REST OF THAT DRIVE, THERE IS A PEDAL DEAD ZONE/SEVERE ACCELERATION DELAY WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP. THIS DELAY IN ACCELERATION HAS CAUSED SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS WHEN PULLING OUT WITH OBSTRUCTED VIEWS AS I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL BUT GET NO RESPONSE FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE 1 SECOND WHILE ANOTHER CAR COMES INTO VIEW AND IS FAST APPROACHING. ONCE THE INITIAL ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE OCCURS, ACC AND TRADITIONAL CRUISE CONTROL WILL BOTH FAIL TO START ACROSS MULTIPLE DRIVES AND ENGINE STARTS. THE SEVERE PEDAL DELAY WILL RETURN ACROSS ENGINE STARTS AS SOON AS THE ACC BUTTON IS PRESSED. THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER THE FUNCTIONALITY OF ACC AND NORMAL CRUISE CONTROL ONCE IN THIS STATE IS TO REMOVE POWER FROM THE BATTERY AND WAIT A MINUTE, THEN POWER ON THE ENGINE AND LET SYSTEMS RESTART. CAR HAS BEEN TO DEALERS CLOSE TO 10 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE. IN CONSULTATION WITH HONDA TECHLINE THE FOLLOWING PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES AT RANDOM INTERVALS: FORWARD LOOKING CAMERA, FORWARD RADAR SENSOR, MAIN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, PEDAL SENSOR, WINDSHIELD, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY. APPEARS TO BE SOME KIND OF SOFTWARE BUG IN ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM THAT CAUSES SYSTEM TO CRASH AND NOT WORK AGAIN UNTIL ENGINE COMPUTER RESET. I'D GLADLY WORK DIRECTLY WITH HONDA FOR TROUBLESHOOTING, I'M 3-4 PEOPLE REMOVED WHEN WORKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND I FEEL LIKE ALL MY INFO IS NOT BEING COMMUNICATED CORRECTLY.

I PURCHASED A 2017 CIVIC HATCHBACK EX W/ SENSING IN LATE MAY 2017. IN MAY 2020, THE AC STOPPED WORKING. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE CONDENSER AND THAT THEY COULD GIVE A "GOODWILL" REPLACEMENT FOR ABOUT $350. AT THAT POINT I WAS AWARE OF THE CONDENSER EXTENDED WARRANTY SO ACCEPTED DUE TO THE COMPRESSOR BEING THE STATED ISSUE. WITH THE PANDEMIC I HAVE NOT BEEN DRIVING A LOT, BUT I NOTICED IN SEPTEMBER 2020 THAT MY AC WAS NOT WORKING AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER, AND NOW THEY SAY IT IS THE CONDENSER THAT IS BROKEN. HOWEVER, THE SB-19-091 DOES NOT APPLY TO HATCHBACKS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AS IT'S CLEAR EVEN FROM A CURSORY SEARCH THAT HATCHBACKS ARE ALSO IMPACTED. THEY OFFERED ANOTHER "GOODWILL" FIX THAT IS EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE FIRST ONE. WHEN I CALLED CORPORATE THEY INITIALLY REFUSED TO FORWARD MY CASE. IT'S SUSPICIOUS THAT THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IT IN THEY SAID THE CONDENSER, WHICH AT THAT POINT THEY NEVER TOLD ME WAS NOT COVERED, WAS NOT LEAKING AND INSTEAD SAID THE COMPRESSOR. NOW, IT IS SUDDENLY THE CONDENSER AND IS NOT IN WARRANTY EITHER. I EXPECT IF THE CONDENSER GETS FIX SOMETHING ELSE WILL BE WRONG. HONDA NEEDS TO STOP DEFLECTING CUSTOMERS ON THIS ISSUE AND FIX THEIR CARS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT GETS VERY HOT IN MY REGION AND IT IS NOT HEALTHY TO REMAIN IN AN ENCLOSED HOT SPACE FOR HOURS AT A TIME.

NHTSA ODI 11361563

I CHANGED THE OIL AT A DEALER IN EARLY AUG, BUT AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT ONE MONTH, THE OIL DILUTION ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN. I CAN SMELL GAS IN THE OIL, AND THE DIPSTICK SHOWED THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS FAR BEYOND THE EXPECTED RANGE.

NHTSA ODI 11361621

I PURCHASE MY 2017 HONDA CIVIC IN NOVEMBER OF 2016. SOON AFTER ITS WARRANTY EXPIRED THE AIR CONDITIONER BEGAN GETTING WARMER AND NOT COOLING DOWN AS MUCH. THE DRIVER'S SIDE NOW BLOWS EITHER HOT OR WARM AIR AND THE PASSENGER'S SIDE BLOWS COOL BUT NOT COLD AIR. THE COOLEST THE AIR GETS COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS IS 61F BUT THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT BARELY COOLS DOWN ON WARM AND HOT DAYS. THE AIR IS SUPPOSED TO BE AROUND 45F AS IT EXITS THE VENTS. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT I COULD COOL THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT ON HOT DAYS. DRIVING IN THE HEAT MAKES ME SLEEPY. I CALLED MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED CLOSE TO $400 DOLLARS JUST TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THE COST COULD GO UP SIGNIFICANTLY DEPENDING ON THE PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN SO SOON TO A NEW CAR. I HAD A 2000 CIVIC FOR 17 YEARS AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AC. I FOUND ONLINE THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS DIFFICULTY. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. WITH THE AC PROBLEM THE DEFROSTER NOW DOESN'T NOT WORK AS WELL AS IT HAD DONE WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW. THIS INCREASES THE RISK OF AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE CLEAR WINDOWS ARE NECESSARY TO DRIVE SAFELY. THE DATE I ENTERED BELOW IS THE APPROXIMATE THE DATE I NOTICED THE AC WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY.

VEHICLE LOST ALL 1234YF COOLANT AND WAS REPLACED ALOMG WITH A DECARB AND RE-SEAL AS WELL AS A FILL UP AND IT IS BLOWING HOTTER THAN BEFORE ONLY 1 MONTH AFTER REPAIR. I HAVE LOST APPROX 2 FULL CHARGES WORTH OF FREEON INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. IT WAS LEAK TESTED TWICE AND BOTH PLACES DID NOT FIND THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM AND IN APRIL OF 2020, HAMER HONDA INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AS I WAS BUYING OUT THE LEASE AND FOUND NO ISSUES EITHER, YET HONDA WILL NOT COVER THE EXPENSE OF THE DIAGNOSES. MALFUNCTION OF THE A/C SYSTEM CAN LEAD TO DAMAGE OF OTHER PARTS AS WELL AS THE FREEON LEAKING INTO THE CLOSED ENGINE BAY. WORKED FINE ONE DAY AND THE NEXT IT WAS HOT AIR. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING AND EXTREMELY HARD TO FIX PROBLEM BETWEEN THE NEW TYPE OF REFRIGERANT AND THE MISDIAGNOSES OF MULTIPLE ACCREDITED BUSINESSES. I DO HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THE REPAIRS AS WELL BUT NOT ON MY DEVICE AT THE TIME OF THIS FILING.

"ALL WINDOWS DOWN" FEATURE ON REMOTE KEY FOB CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY ACTIVATED TOO EASILY, MAKING CAR VULNERABLE TO BREAK-INS AND INTERIOR DAMAGE. THIS FEATURE CANNOT BE DISABLED.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GOES FROM COLD TO HOT WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. DURING VERY HOT DAYS CABIN BECOMES EXTREMELY HOT EVEN WITH FAN TURNED TO HIGH AND A/C TURNED TO THE ON POSITION. HAVE HEARD THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED WITH OTHER HONDA CIVIC OWNERS AS WELL. BECOMES VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TRYING TO DRIVE WHILE CABIN IS HOT. HAPPENS WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR AT IDLE

EXPERIENCED DAMAGED A/C COMPRESSOR , JUST AFTER COMPLETING 3 YEARS AND HONDA WON'T REPAIR. HUNDREDS OF HONDA CIVIC OWNERS HAS EXPERIENCED SAME A/C ISSUES AND HONDA WON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING.

NHTSA ODI 11355279

HONDA REPAIRED THE CONDENSER IN MY VEHICLE BUT THE ISSUE PERSISTED AND GOT WORSE, IT BLOWS HOT AIR OUT THE DRIVERS SIDE AND COLD AIR OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE BUT IT BLEW PIECES OF ICE OUT OF THE VENT.

NHTSA ODI 11354606

I STARTED EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH MY A/C WITHIN 12MONTHS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE A/C WOULD BLOW HOT AIR SPORADICALLY AND WHEN I BROUGHT THE ISSUE UP TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR TO LOOK INTO, THEY REPORTED THAT THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND THAT THE A/C WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THIS ISSUE WOULD CONTINUE TO HAPPEN EVERY SUMMER UP UNTIL NOW, WHERE IT HAS COMPLETELY STOP WORKING AND ONLY BLOWING OUT HOT AIR. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK TO HONDA AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND MORE THAN LIKELY IT WAS THE CONDENSER OR COMPRESSOR. I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO UPWARD OF $1800 FOR THE REPAIR.

MY CAR RANDOMLY LOST POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY FORCING ME TO TURN ON HAZARDS AND MAKE MY WAY FROM THE EXPRESS LANE TO THE NEAREST OFF RAMP GOING 20 MPH WHILE TRYING TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN TO FLASH RAPIDLY CAUSING FURTHER ANXIETY. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE MY WAY TO SAFETY AND CALL A TOW TRUCK. I ATTEMPTED TO HAVE MY CAR DELIVERED TO THE NEAREST HONDA (WALNUT CREEK CA) HOWEVER THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY AVAILABILITY FOR A FEW DAYS. THE CAR ALSO HAD LOTS OF SMOKE COMING OUT THE EXHAUST AND READ CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL ON AND OFF. IT WAS A NIGHTMARE AND WHO KNOWS WHAT IT'S GOING TO COST ME TO REPAIR. ON TOP OF ALL THE WORK I'LL LOOSE BEING MY WORK RELIES ON MY CAR 100%. I'VE OWNED NOTHING BUT HONDAS HOWEVER THIS TIME I FEEL I MADE A BAD PURCHASE BUYING A NEW 2017 CIVIC. I'VE KEPT UP WITH MAINTENANCE, ONLY GOES TO DEALERSHIP, PUMPED NOTHING BUT PREMIUM GASOLINE. I AM SAD, UPSET, ANGRY, ANXIOUS AND VERY MUCH STILL IN DISBELIEF THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO MY 3 YEAR OLD CAR AT ONLY 80,000 MILES . WHAT CAN I DO? IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING SAME ISSUE? I GOT A CODE P0299 TURBO UNDERBOOST

THE HEAD UNIT/DISPLAY STOPPED WORKING ABOUT A WEEK AGO. AT FIRST, NOTHING WOULD COME ON. I THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A FUSE, OR IT NEEDED REBOOTED. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND IT STILL CONTINUED TO ACT UP. THE BACK-UP AND PASSENGER SIDE CAMERAS WON'T WORK PROPERLY, THE CLIMATE CONTROLS WON'T WORK AS I CAN'T CHANGE THE AIR FLOW OR TEMPERATURE, THE BLUETOOTH WON'T WORK OR CONNECT, AND THE AUDIO CONTROLS WON'T WORK OR ARE SEVERELY DELAYED. THIS CREATES MULTIPLE SAFETY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING: 1. THE AUDIO WILL RANDOMLY TURN ON, AND AT HIGH VOLUMES DUE TO THE FACT THAT I CANNOT CONTROL THE VOLUME OR TURN IT ON OR OFF. 2. THE BACK-UP AND/OR SIDE CAMERAS WILL GET STUCK ON THE SCREEN, WHICH CREATES A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. 3. THE BLUETOOTH WON'T WORK, WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN DUE TO 'HANDS-FREE' LAWS IN MOST STATES. 4. THE CLIMATE CONTROLS WON'T WORK CORRECTLY AND, THEREFORE, I CANNOT USE THE FRONT DEFROST. WHEN TAKEN TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY CLAIM THAT IT WILL COST $4,000 TO REPLACE. $4,000 ON A 3-YEAR OLD VEHICLE, WITH NO OTHER MAJOR ISSUES.

NHTSA ODI 11351896

THE AIR CONDITIONING WENT OUT IN MY CAR AROUND 40K MILES. FROM SPEAKING WITH OTHERS I HEAR THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND ITS THE AC COMPRESSOR. I KNOW 3 OTHERS WITH THE SAME CAR AND ALL 3 OF THEIRS HAS WENT OUT BY 50K MILES. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAVE CHECKED ONLINE AND SAW MANY MORE COMPLAINTS. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX AND UNACCEPTABLE FOR A BRAND NEW CAR!

LEAK IN 2017 HONDA CIVIC HATCHBACK AC CONDENSER. HONDA ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN IN 2019 FOR OTHER TRIM HONDA CIVIC LINES,BUT APPARENTLY NOT THE HATCHBACK. THE LEAKING CONDENSER WAS THE SAME PROBLEM IDENTIFIED IN SERVICE BULLETIN BUT THIS VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT IDENTIFIED. THE RECALL OR COVERED REPAIRS SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO COVER ALL TRIM LINES AND VEHICLES. HONDA ONLY COVERED 1/2 OF REPAIR COSTS. THE AC CONDENSER LEAK RESULTED IN NO AC. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO WINDSHIELD FOGGING AND VISIBILTY.
