Block engine started leaking coolant all of a sudden car never overheated. This happen while I was driving in freeway all I saw was smoke coming from under my hood. I had quite a few a cars in my life and I never seen a block engine just leaking coolant from 2 places in the front and if I’m not mistaken 2 more in the back of block car is available for check up no one but me has checked this out.

While I was driving on hwy 45 my escape jumped out of gear and overdrive indicator showed it had turned off at the same time. Also it caused my vehicle to almost stoll while traffic was behind me and beside me. I had to shift gear shift until light showed again then shift it to drive. Also had to click overdrive back on several times until it kicked on. I had my sister and my 2 children 9yrs and 10 yrs old in vehicle when it happened. Also had my vehicle to start jumping and shaking like it was missing . Engine light is on all the time now, and airbag light. Is it safe to drive?.

On 6/5/17 while making a turn to park my car at a store my car suddenly surged forward, causing me to hit the brakes hard and put the car in neutral. I was traveling under 5 mph; there was no hurt or an accident. This is actually the second time this has happened; this time I was approaching a red light, coasting under 5 mph when the car suddenly surged. This happened about 6-8 months ago, but I did not realize what happened at happened at the time.

I have Honda Civic si 2007. I have been experiencing a problem with 3rd gear. It pops out and sometimes it’s hard to get it in the 3dr gear. The problem happened more frequently when the weather is cool and it’s intermediate. It could happen 2 times a day or 2 times a week depending on the weather/driving time and conditions. I took my car to the Honda dealership in mahwah, NJ (as I been told car has been taking for the test drive 7 times and total 22 miles on it)and nanuet, NY(2 times total 10 miles) and I also called Honda of America to file a complaint about it 3 times(case # n012013-06-1801969). As a result dealerships couldn’t replicate the problem and Honda of America only can advise me to go to the different dealership. I have extended warranty on this car it will expire in August 2013 and as I was told at Honda of America it becomes my problem after warranty will expire. This is the worst costumer care service owning a car I have ever experienced, and it’s Honda.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving 25 mph he engaged the brakes to stop at a traffic light however, the vehicle failed to stop. The contact mentioned that he had to engage the emergency brake in order to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure and the current mileage was 51,000.

My 2007 Honda Civic wears out rear tires extremely fast, causing loud vibrations and safety concerns.

I was pulling into a parking space (turning right into it and parking between cars), was almost at a full stop, about to straighten the wheels and put the car in park, when the engine accelerated to full speed. It jumped the little curb at the front of the parking space and went through a shop window at an angle, wedging in the doorway. It left acceleration marks on the sidewalk after jumping the curb, and the wheels were still spinning in the doorway until I turned the car off. The car was repaired, then towed to the Honda dealership, where it was tested, but they were unable to reproduce the problem. I never drove it again.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Civic. The vehicle was intermittently experiencing an increased stopping distance. While driving approximately 15 mph pressure was applied to the brakes and the vehicle did not stop until repeated pressure was applied to the brake pedal. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact was informed that the rotors were worn. The authorized dealer replaced all four brakes; yet intermittently the vehicle continued to experience an increased stopping distance. She also stated that the vehicle surged forward from a stop resulting in a single car crash in which the air bags did not deploy. A police report was not filed. The driver was injured. The vehicle was not examined to determine the cause of failure. The failure mileage was 3,000. The current mileage was 24,000. The VIN was unavailable.

Vehicle accelerating and rpm's racing while idle, and while driving.

Throttle lag. Immediately upon purchasing and driving the Honda Civic ex 2007 there was a delay in response from pressing the accelerator to increasing the engine's rpms. There was a distinct difference between the car that was test driven and the car that was purchased. The dealer originally acknowledged the throttle lag between the two cars. They contacted Honda canada and were told to properly "break in" the engine. This consisted of lugging the car in fifth gear (manual transmission) up a hill for approx 100 kilometers. They felt that the engine was tight and that this might help the throttle lag problem. It did, marginally. Further contact with Honda canada was met with a response that throttle lag was a characteristic of the car and the drive by wire throttle system. Apparently throttle lag in drive by wire is not uncommon and there are some after market parts (sprint booster) to help the problem but not for Honda and they are only available in europe. The dealer suggested that perhaps it is a software issue but no software fix has been available through Honda canada. There is most definitely a problem between the sending and receiving unit in the drive by wire system. This problem is more pronounced in some Civics than others. Although mine is pronounced, Honda canada does not see it as a problem. It is most obvious on a steep hill where you must use the hand brake to keep from rolling backwards as there is approximately a one second delay between the time you press the gas peddle and the engine responds. Also if you tap the accelerator while downshifting the rpms will not increase at all.

Was approaching traffic light traveling behind other vehicles and braking in preparation to stop, when vehicle engine began to ram up and down while my foot remains on brake. I shifted gear to park and engine continued to rush up and down. I turned engine off, and then back on and the engine continued to rush up and down. I again turned engine off and then on and engine still rushed up and down. I turned engine off and then on again. Engine began to rush, but then returned to normal operation. I was very concerned and excited concerning potential recurrence leading to serious accident. Immediately took car to Honda dealer ship, explained situation. Dealer supposedly inspected and found no cause or explanation for problem. I reported problem in writing to american Honda auto corp. Customer. Service. (this had occurred on 2 other occasions with minimal or momentary effect, thinking it was not a serious issue. This most recent case proved otherwise.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Civic. The contact noticed that the vehicle never became warm. The vehicle was idling high. The vehicle made a bumping noise. The contact had to activate the brake in order to decelerate. The Honda dealer placed the vehicle on the diagnostic machine and determined the high idling failure, but could not repair the vehicle. The contact drove another vehicle of the same year, make, and model and that vehicle did not have any failure. The technician stated that the idle speed was controlled by the computer which did not have a sensor. This was the reason why they could not assist her. The current mileage was 615, and failure mileage was 23. Updated 05/21/07.
