general problems of the 2001 Honda Civic

I am going down the road at 65mph and car loses all power, compression, speed. . . Starts shuttering, stuttering & shaking the car then it dies. . . It doesn't matter the conditions, whether I'm in city or on road. . . It does it anywhere and unexpectedly, never know when it's going to do it but it's dangerous it's not just once, it's every time I drive the car! not just once but several times!.

The fuel pump stops intermittently causing the potential for crash due to the car shutting off and loss of power steering.

It has a kill switch and caught fire.

Upon starting out at a red light on a major street, engine went to full-throttle, causing a collision to the car in front. Operator then tried to put car in park, but instead went into to reverse, car started rapid backing up, then went back to drive and hit the car in front a second time. Once the vehicle was in park, ignition was switched off. Vehicle would not come out of park with the ignition key on, so was stuck in traffic. Restarted car remained in full throttle condition. Auto mechanic verified failed throttle, $700 to replace throttle, minor body damage.

Vehicle manufacturer's fuel hose clamp recall ( #01v182000 ) was inadequately repaired by technicians of a vehicle repair company conducting initial safety inspection of vehicle, prior to registration of vehicle, and there is no known provision requiring a review of any alleged repairs by that vehicle repair company in accords with the recall itself, whereas a strong odor of fuel continuously fills passenger compartment through air vents when travelling in vehicle, and vehicle repair company refuses to review work of technicians in the interest of safety of vehicle's passengers and other innocent persons in accords with basis for manufacturer's issuance of recall. Vehicle is only workable means of transportation, and continuous odor of fuel affects passengers personally and substantially, based on there existing no known provision requiring review of work of technicians. Employees of vehicle manufacturer was contacted by phone, and they revealed that there are no known policies or provisions requiring review of technician attempts to repair fuel hose clamp recall upon allegations of strong odor of fuel clouding passenger compartment when vehicle in operation; employees of vehicle manufacturer appear to cover up allegations of inadequate repair of fuel hose clamp recall by reviewing technicians, thus providing for potentially dangerous vehicle (reeking of odor of fuel) to operate on public roadways.

The contact owns a 2001 Honda Civic. The contact stated that the vehicle was leaking fuel. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 176,400.

While driving the car you could smell strong gasoline on the outside behind the area of the rear driver side tire after reaching a normal engine running temp.

I'am the original owner of an Civic 2001 lx with 159,000 miles. It started smelling obnoxious gas smell inside the car. The dealer findings were, the fuel filter cracked. Estimated repair of $541. 00, they advised me to not drive the car until it is fixed also, the car was well maintained by them since day one. The service disorder suggested to me to contact Honda headquarters and explain the problem to them since it is a safety issue. I did contact hinda they were not willing to do anything about it. Thanks so much,.

Total transmission failure! while I was stopped at a traffic light it felt like the car would not get in gear. I would press on the gas and the engine would rev up but I was not moving. I was able to let it coast to a side street to get out of traffic. This could have been really ugly if I was on the highway or on a busier street. I had to get it towed to the nearest service station. Apparently the oil pump and torque converter failed which basically caused the rest of the transmission to burn up. I had to do a complete new transmission rebuild. I know my Honda has a few miles but 104k seems too early for a transmission failure.

While driving and when it parked it smelling fuel it comes near from filler neck,I thought it were the fuel cap but nothing change after replaced for a new cap (no codes and no check engine lights on )and driver seat belt sometimes it stucks and buckle won't clicks easily (2 times while driving seatbelt unclip by it self) I checked my VIN number for any recalls but I didn't find any recalls for this vehicle.

Consumer touched brakes to slow vehicle down, but vehicle swerved, and consumer hit another vehicle. Consumer stateed brakes squeaks and parking brake needs adjustment, transmission is making noise, no power on acceleration, upper windshield molding failed and reinstalled, noise is coming from right front wheel, gas gauge will fluctuate at times and front engine mount broke.
