1 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 02/06/2024

I have a 2006 Honda Civic GX compressed natural gas vehicle. The problem with the vehicle is the compressed natural gas cylinder that holds the fuel. The cylinders are only certified for a period of time 15 or 20 years. After that the cylinders are considered expired and must be replaced. Once they are expired, they cannot be recertified. The problem I encountered is a complete lack of knowledge of proper maintenance procedures even by Honda dealers that are certified to work on natural gas vehicles (ngv). See Honda service bulletin 06-015 1998-2015 Civic GX all and us dept of energy, alternative fuels data center - cng fuel system and tank maintenance. From the time I bought the vehicle in 2006 until 2024 I regularly took it to a certified Honda ngv service dealer. At no time did they perform any required ngv safety checks. My issue is that there may be many of these vehicles on the roads still that pose a real safety risk to the owner and public if the ngv fuel systems have not been properly maintained. I brought this safety issue up to the Honda dealer and Honda motor company and both declined to take any measures to alert current ngv owners or Honda certified ngv service dealers. If expired cylinders are still in service, they are at risk of exploding and causing significant damage and injury.

And in the uk. See extracts from numerous internet reports in attachment (internet reports - problem. Docx). 2. There is no warning about this problem or information in the owner's manual for this car, or any notification from Honda, on the correct way to jump start the car to avoid the problem.

Honda has issued: "service bulletin - August 2, 2006 06-036 - immobilizer indicator is blinking, engine won't start symptom the engine does not start, and the immobilizer indicator is blinking (especially if the battery recently went dead and the engine was jump-started).
