general problems of the 2006 Honda Civic

I am being targeted as a driver since 2010 for driving programs that automatically adjust the weight needed to effectively press the brake and gas pedals of any vehicle. 4/8/2022 3:34 pm pst, such activities occurred when merging onto traffic on the 57 n freeway from imperial hwy on ramp. To confirm that such occurred and that it was not due to overwhelming the engine during driving in high heat conditions, e. G. 97 degrees. On past occasions, this has involved accelerating, although minimal, when I have pushed the gas pedal at e. Cameron Ave. And s. Pima Ave. Cross walk, to cause embarrassment, harassment, reports, and use of my emergency brake because children were crossing following a crosswalk guard. This incident was reported during 2010-2012. Such activity was suspected beforehand but too difficult to conclude that such was the case w/o incidents like the one just aforementioned. Since 2010, the radio has played alternative broadcasts, especially during activities as the one mentioned above to cause alarm, stress or for the purpose of involving someone else, such as maria auxiliadora hernandez, formerly solis and now flores, of knowing exactly what was said or what I was saying to myself w/o anyone around at any time. Such activities appear to be implemented as her work rather than the actual work she is supposed to complete for the company that she holds herself out as working for, e. G. The woman at the donut shop counter is supposed to be engaging in donut shop related activities, but instead begins to harass other employees and clients regarding what was emitted through the radio or what they were doing at the time of the broadcast, instead of completing activities related to staffing a donut shop. Such activities were used to control the extent of her work and her work environment in lieu of what she is contracted to complete. Cover up seems to be testing driving practices when its supposedly apparent that I am on my way to work in lieu of home.

I would like the recalls to be done om my car due to saftey issues becaus3 I don't believe it was even done at least I know with me it hasn't and I wasn't informed and feel very unsafe in my vehicle because of what should of been fixed and hasnt.

My dad has died from injuries sustained from a car accident, he told me his car 2006 Honda Civic accelerated on its own! the car accelerated at high rpm when he just went to accelerate. To enter the road making a left, instead the car went so fast within seconds, he lost control and his Honda plowed threw a stop sign, then was finally stopped by a steel pole holding up a quick check sign! he sustained extensive chest injuries! 3 broken ribs, 2 dropped lungs, fractured sternum, fractured c4 and c7 spine injuries! he died due to a defect in the accerlaertion of the vehicle racing on its own! my dad has always kept up with recalls and has car logs and maintenance logs, etc. I hope other people never have to experience this tragic sudden death, due to a defect in manufacturer acceleration, or whatever equipment is responsible for this accident! it's a mfg defect! please address or at least make public aware this could happen to them! the consumer requested a status update.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at 30 mph, the vehicle accelerated independently without any warnings. The second time the failure occurred, the vehicle crashed into a pillar. A police report was filed and no injuries were reported. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician was unable to diagnosed the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 65,000.

I have a cracked engine block due to the service bulletin and I need Honda to repair ASAP among other problems.

I on a 2006 Honda Civic ex. Yesterday I came to a stop light and applied the brakes and as I did so the car stopped and then the engine began to race and roar. I applied the brakes harder as the car began to try to jump forward into the intersection the engine raced even more and the brakes were not holding the car back so I quickly put the car in park and turned off the engine. I waited about 30 seconds and then started the car again and kept my foot on the brake. The care engine was normal this time and the engine did not race so I drove home. The next day I took my car to the Honda dealership and they put it on the computer and did not find anything wrong, but when they did a visual check of the gas pedal, they found that the gas pedal had come loose from the floor mounting. They tighten this part and charged me for labor and the time on the computer (which came to $104. ). They said there was a recall on this part for some of the 2006 Honda Civics, but that mine was not the right VIN number for this recall. When I look on you website it type in my VIN number and make and model, it says it is on recall and that they have a modification kit for the gas pedal that they send to the dealership to repair the car for free that is supposed to prevent this from happening again. I feel that they should have order the repair kit for my gas pedal and told me that they would service my car for free. My life or someone else's could have been at risk with this incident and possibly without this modification kit, it can happen again in the future. I would like to know how to get my car included in this recall and free installation of the modification kit as it should not be excluded since I obviously suffer the same risk as those other 2006 Honda Civics with the approved VIN numbers. I would also like a refund on the $104.

The following is the letter I sent to Honda. The letter got passed around and I was told to call customer service. Please help settle this matter. I want Honda to notify all customers of this problem and also pay for my damages due to their negligence. On Monday, March 17, around 9am, my 2006 Honda Civic suddenly and without warning cut out completely and had no steering. I had just taken an exit ramp, 291b towards chesapeake, virginia and miraculously made it to the shoulder of the off ramp with no power. My Honda Civic has only 61,000 miles on it and has been well maintained. I was fortunate to have a police car pull behind me after waiting about 20 horrifying minutes. The officer said she would park behind me because someone was going to hit me from behind. Traffic was heavy and cars and trucks were flying off of i64 on to this 291b exit ramp. It was a shock to learn later that the tensioner bolt suddenly broke off and caused the water pump to lock up and tensioner and serpentine belts to be damaged. What was completely unacceptable, was to learn that certain VIN numbers had the drive belt recalled to install the longer, rerouted drive belt. This obviously needed to be done on my car as well. I am shocked and upset that I was placed in a situation where there was a potentially known tragedy that could have occurred. I have been a very loyal Honda customer to this point, but require that appropriate action is taken. Honda should cover repairs related to their negligence and also, most importantly notify all customers promptly of this known potential disaster. I look forward to an acceptable response by March 28, 2014. Mary kay glassman mkglassman@gmail. Com (757) 621-1467 please see enclosures below. <img_8551. Jpg><img_1045. Jpg><img_2105. Jpg>.

I was stopped at a stop light that had just turned red (no one was in front of me). When I noticed that the light was turning yellow for the cross traffic, I let up on the brakes a little bit & maybe rolled a few inches. Suddenly I felt a forward thrust & immediately depressed the brake harder & looked in my rearview mirror as it felt like a car was pushing mine, there was no car behind me. I could hear the engine reving & I had to put more pressure on the brakes but then the light had turned green so I began to accelerate. (this all happened in just a few seconds) I immediately looked at the carpet which was completely in place. I continued to drive & when I had to stop I left a lot of space from the car in front of me but I was not able to recreate the incident. It was not full throttle but enough to really scare me. Yesterday I made a report to Honda of America & they were going to forward the report to the larry hopkins Honda dealer in burlingame where I have an appointment this Friday, April 4th. I did find reports on the internet where other people have had that same thing happen & their garage could never duplicate the incident or find a cause for it so I expect my visit to be fruitless & a waste of money, but I realize that I have to do it. I will always worry as long as I drive this car that that could happen again & I may not be as lucky with the outcome. I was not planning to buy another new car until 2016.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Civic. The contact stated that the throttle would remain open while decelerating, allowing the vehicle to continue accelerating abnormally. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign id number: 05v509000 (vehicle speed control:accelerator pedal) and called the manufacturer. The manufacturer informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in the recall campaign. The failure mileage was 105,000.

Received a phone call from granddaughter on her way home to pick me up. She stated she was not speeding and 2 or 3 minutes later her Honda Civic was involved in a high speed single vehicle crash which killed both driver and passenger.

2006 Honda Civic 4dr lx at. On two separate occasions, I have experienced sudden engine acceleration *while braking*. The first time, I was exiting a highway and had come to a stop while I waited to merge onto a thoroughfare; my engine rpm suddenly increased to 1500 or so, and I had to maintain increased pressure on the brake pedal. The other incident occurred today: I was also at a stop in a line of cars waiting to pay in order to leave a garage. I inadvertently lessened the pressure my right foot was exerting on the accelerator pedal, and the car engine started to accelerate (not just lurch forward associated with lighter brake pressure), so I had to hold down the brake pedal with a great deal of force, and the engine rpm returned to idle speed. In no way did my foot touch the accelerator in either of these instances.

I have felt for some time that as I am rolling to a stop at 10-15mph and apply the brakes that there is an increase in the rpms from 600 to 1000 or slightly more. The sudden revving is enough that I have sensed that the car could actually continue to move forward when I intend for it to stop and perhaps cause an accident. Related to this, I had one instance when I was pulling into a parking space that I had to apply great force to the brake pedal and put the car in neutral to avoid running over a speed bump at the end of the space. I had initially thought I may have put my foot on the accelerator pedal by accident, but doubted that at the time, and now seriously doubt it given some other reports I have read on the web.

I stopped at a crosswalk to let individuals cross and while I was stopped the engine was revving and it felt like I really needed to push down hard on the brake to keep the car from going forward. . A little scary.

After backing down my driveway I put my foot on the brake and shifted from reverse to drive. The vehicle accelerated very rapidly. I kept my foot on the brake, shifted to neutral and turned off the ignition. After restarting ,the car responded normally when it was shifted into drive. Fortunately, my foot was firmly on the brake so there was no property damage or personal injury. However, this greatly concerns me. I noted your website has complaints from other people that have experienced the same problem. I called Honda and they indicated there were not aware of any problems of this sort. They advised me to take the car to a dealer to see if they could replicate the problem. I will do so, but the dealer and I both agree it is highly unlikely they will be able to replicate the problem. I believe my experience, as well as the experience of other persons who have contacted you, indicates there is a strong likelihood of a potentially serious safety defect that could lead to property damage and serious personal injury.

- the contact stated that the 2006 Honda Civic ex, had acceleration problems. On 11/16/06, while driving at 5 mph in bumper to bumper traffic the vehicle accelerated without notice. The contact stated that the rpm monitor showed the vehicle was accelerating quickly. He had to hit the brakes really hard to get the vehicle to come to a stop. The contact stated that this has happened on 3 occasions. The contact called the dealership and left the vehicle with the them for 2 days. The dealership drove the vehicle, and informed the contact that they found nothing wrong with the vehicle or the acceleration problem . The contact will file a complaint with manufacturer, and will submit the case # with the hard copy. The failure mileages was 9500 , and the current mileage was 13800. Updated 03/30/07.

I bought a 2006 Honda Civic lx on 02/21/06. I was at the mall on date below and went to back out of my space, when a van backed out and we hit bumpers. I was going to pull back into my spot to see the damage and when I put the car into drive, it took off like a rocket and would not stop. . . I had both feet on the brake trying to stop it, and it would not stop. I hit a 2006 cobalt, my car flipped over onto its side hit a 2003 chevy driving in between these two parked cars . I then drove over the cobalt and when I came to the end of these cars, my car came out of them and flew through the air over into the parking space across the parking lot. The deputy sheriff and his sergeant came to the scene of the accident and said that there was no way that Honda Civic could have done what it did and to drive over the cobalt without something being wrong with the accelerator pedal or the computer. I went onto Honda's web site and found that Honda Civics were on a recall for the accelerator pedals. I called the dealership where I purchased the car and told them what happened and told them about the recall, and the new car manager told me it was for the two door Civics only, and maybe I should have turned the key off when this happened. I then called the general manager at the same dealership the next day and told hmi what happened and his comment was "that was very unfortunate". I have not heard from Honda since this happened. I have tried to contact Honda, and they say they will call back, but never do. I don't want this car and I don't feel that I should pay for this death trap of a vehicle. I feel that it is a safety issue now. I wanted Honda to know that the 4 door Civic's should be on a recall also. I think Honda is not going to stand up and say there's a problem. I know what I did that day, and I know that that Civic could not have done what it did in that short distance without something going wrong somewhere in that car.

New 2006 Honda Civic - major issue with the low idle (650) rpm instantly increasing to around 1000 rpm when the steering wheel is slightly turned, causing the car to jump ahead. You must have your foot firmly placed on the brake pedal at all times. If you remove your foot from the brake and turn the wheel, the car lurches forward. I believe this a safety concern and an annoyance. Honda factory tech claims this how it is designed. According to dealer, other similar 06 Civics have same condition.

The vehicle idled in my driveway for 1-2 minutes. I backed the vehicle down the driveway. I put my foot on the brake and shifted into drive. The vehicle unexpectedly revved up to 3-4000 rpm without pressing the accelerator. As my foot was firmly on the brake, the vehicle did not move. I took the vehicle to a dealership. The dealership checked the vehicle and test drove it. They could not find a problem or replicate the incident. No repairs were made to the vehicle.

The rapid, delayed deceleration that occurs with the vehicle when you let off the accelerator pedal poses a safety issue. The car has a completely non-linear, rapid, sudden deceleration approximately 1 second after letting off the accelerator. This can cause unexpected vehicle over steer, particularly when the car is driven in a spirited fashion which is its target market.

All 2006 Honda Civic si models continue to accelerate for approximately 1 second(s) after closing the throttle. This programmed "rev holding" compromises the ability to safely control the car and stop it. This is a drive-by-wire issue that must be fixed.

When lifting off the accelerator car continues without decelerating for more than 1 second. This can cause problems in traffic. I must anticipate my deceleration or use the brake pedal suddenly when I would not have to in another car. I believe this presents a significant risk. Further when deceleration does occur it is extremely abrupt. If I am turning and I lift off the throttle the sudden deceleration and its unpredictable onset can cause lift-throttle over steer or a tightening of the line on which the car travels. In short, the car can unpredictably go not where it was pointed.
