What 348 owners told NHTSA about the 2019 Honda Civic Type R

THE WINSHIELD HAS CRACKED TWICE IN THE ONE YEAR I HAVE OWNED IT. IT COSTS $1,000 TO REPAIR IT. I HAVE NEVER HAD A WINSHIELD CRACK IN 33 YEARS OF OWNING CARS. THERE IS AN ISSUE CAUSING THIS TO OCCUR. I HAD A ROCK CHIP IN BOTH INSTANCES.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A ROAD (WITH MY FRIEND IN THE PASSENGER SEAT NEXT TO ME JUST TO NOTE) THAT IS BEING REPAVED AND IT'S NOT ANYTHING THAT I HAVEN'T DRIVEN ON BEFORE, JUST A LITTLE TINY BIT SHAKY HERE AND THERE BUT AGAIN NOTHING CRAZY. I'M GOING ABOUT 10-15 MPH AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY AIRBAGS JUST GO OFF. NOTHING HIT, NO POTHOLE IN SIGHT, JUST SLOWLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND BAM. I WAS SPOOKED AS I COULDN'T BRACE FOR IT AT ALL BECAUSE I WASN'T EXPECTING IT. MY WINDOWS WERE UP SO THE SOUND OF IT COMING OUT BASICALLY WRECKED MY EARS AND IT CAME OUT ALONG WITH A BUNCH OF SMOKE. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND GOT OUT TO LOOK, CONFUSED AS TO WHAT HAD TRIGGERED IT BUT NOTHING, NO DAMAGE TO THE CAR AT ALL, NOTHING HIT. AT HONDA THEY WERE NOT HAVING IT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY CAN REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY IF IT WAS PROVED TO BE A DEFECT. I ARGUED THAT IT MUST BE CONSIDERING I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING AND WAS DRIVING SLOW AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE ON THE CAR. SHE SAID THEY'LL LIFT IT AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR TO INDICATE THAT THE SENSOR WAS TOUCHED, IT'S INSTANTLY OUT OF WARRANTY AND I NEED TO GO THROUGH INSURANCE. HOW IS THIS OKAY? CLEARLY THIS IS SOME DEFECT WITH THE CAR AND I'M BEING PENALIZED FOR IT. THEY CALLED TODAY FOR THE RESULT AND SAID THE CAR HIT THE GROUND AND DAMAGED THE SENSOR SO IT'S ON ME TO PAY FOR DAMAGES. I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE BECAUSE I FELT NO IMPACT AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR AFTER IT HAPPENED. I PUT IT IN PARK RIGHT AWAY TO COME OUT BUT ONCE I WAS TOLD BY THE POLICE TO GO TO HONDA I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE AND SMOOTHLY DROVE OFF TO THE DEALERSHIP. WHAT CAN I DO TO HAVE HONDA ACCEPT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY? I NEVER THOUGHT THAT REGULAR DRIVING ON A SLIGHTLY BUMPY ROAD (BASICALLY FLAT AND PEBBLY) MEANS THAT THE AIRBAGS WOULD GO OFF. THERE WERE MANY CARS ON THAT ROAD YET THEIR AIRBAGS DIDN'T GO OFF. *TR

SEPTEMBER 13 2019 - FRONT SPOILER UNDER THE BUMPER PARTIALLY DETACHED WHILE DRIVING ON I-65 AT ~70 MPH. THIS HAPPENED SUDDENLY AND VIOLENTLY AND NEARLY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN IT HAPPENED DUE TO THE SPOILER IMMEDIATELY DRAGGING THE PAYMENT (I.E. IMPACTING CONTROL OF THE CAR COUPLED WITH STARTLING THE DRIVER). NO PREVIOUS COLLISION OR TRAUMA HAD IMPACTED THE SPOILER PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT (E.G. IT HAD NOT HIT A PARKING CURB). A PASSENGER CORROBORATED THE FACTS DETAILED BY THE DRIVER. SPOILER WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP (HONDA WORLD IN LOUISVILLE, KY) A FEW DAYS LATER. JUNE 6 2020 - THE EXACT SAME INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON I-64 AT ~70 MPH, WHICH ALSO NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. SIMILAR TO THE 9/13/19 INCIDENT, THERE HAD BEEN NO COLLISION OR TRAUMA IMPACTING THE SPOILER PRIOR THIS SECOND INCIDENT. THIS TIME, THERE WERE TWO EYE WITNESSES (MOTHER & FATHER OF THE DRIVER) IN THE CAR DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CIVIC, AS WELL AS 2 PASSENGERS, ALL OF WHICH CORROBORATED THESE FACTS. WE TIED THE PARTIALLY DETACHED SPOILER TO THE BUMPER SO THAT IT REMAINED DRIVABLE HOME. JUNE 8, 2020 - BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND INFORMED THEM OF THIS SECOND INCIDENT, THAT OCCURRED EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE FIRST BACK IN SEPTEMBER WITHOUT ANY PREVIOUS TRAUMA OCCURRING TO THE PART THAT PARTIALLY DETACHED. INSTEAD OF LISTENING THEY WERE IMMEDIATELY CONFRONTATIONAL, SAYING THERE HAD TO HAVE BEEN A COLLISION (I.E. THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE US). THEY TOLD US TO CALL INSURANCE AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. FURTHER, THEY MENTIONED THAT WHEN WE CALLED THE 1-800 HONDA CUSTOMER CARE #, THAT HONDA WOULD CALL THEM BACK AND THEY WOULD SAY THERE HAD TO HAVE BEEN A COLLISION (I.E. THEY WOULD TELL HONDA THAT WE WERE LYING). PLEASE ADVISE ON WHO WE SHOULD CONTACT ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL COVER UP OF A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. WE ARE CONCERNED OTHER HONDA CIVIC OWNERS MAY BE IN DANGER. *TR

I PARKED MY CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY AND PUT THE BRAKE ON AND THE CAR IN PARK. I SAT IN MY CAR WHILE OFF FOR A MINUTE WHILE CALLING MY SON TO ASK HIM A QUESTION. ABOUT 30 SECONDS AFTER I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND SHUT THE DOOR (THERE WAS NO NOISE INDICATION THERE WAS AN ISSUE), THE CAR ROLLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND HIT MY NEIGHBORS CAR. WHEN I WENT TO CHECK MY CAR, THE CAR WAS STILL IN PARK AND THE RED BRAKE LIGHT WAS STILL GLOWING. I HAD BROUGHT MY CAR IN 2 TIMES BEFORE THIS HAPPENED TO COMPLAIN THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WITH THE STABILITY CONTROL WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY. THE CAR WAS BRAKING ON ITS ON AND LANE ASSIST KEPT COMING ON WHEN IT SHOULDN'T HAVE. HONDA SAID ALL WAS GOOD. THE LAST TIME I BROUGHT IT IN, FOR THE TIRE LIGHTS COMING ON, THEY SAID THE TIRE STICKER WAS TOO CLOSE TO THE RIM AND THAT'S WHY THERE WAS AN ISSUE. THIS WAS AFTER BRINGING IT IN FOR THIS PROBLEM 2 TIMES TO BE TOLD IT WAS OK AND THEY ONLY ADDRESSED IT AFTER MY FLAT. BUT WITHIN 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING AWAY THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. FOR SURE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.
