Unknown Or Other problem #1

This is the second time this has happened in this vehicle. The car was put into park and it moved forward and almost stalled. I had step on the brake to keep from moving forward anymore. This sound like the same complaint listed on the most recent recall made by Honda on the their accord's and cr-v's.

Unknown Or Other problem #2

2009 Honda Civic. Air conditioner started to blow out warm air. This was about 6 months after purchasing the vehicle. I live in the upper midwest and the issue occured soon after the weather warmed up. I took it to boyland Honda in milwaukee, WI where I purchased the vehicle. They corrected the problem and the air worked for the rest of the summer. One year later I have the exact same issue. The air conditioner is once again blowing out warm air. I have an appointment to take the car in to Honda of kenosha. I don't trust that boyland actually corrected the problem so would like to try another dealer. I only have 12,999 miles on the vehicle and have been without air conditioning on two different occasions. My wife has a cr-v (our 2nd) and I have the Civic (also our 2nd) I have always had good luck, this is the first time I have encountered an issue like thies.

Unknown Or Other problem #3

2009 Honda Civic 22,472 miles mostly freeway miles. Grinding noise from front brakes, took vehicle to dealer, they said I needed new pads and to have the rotors turned. Inboard pad (piston side of caliper) was worn to wear indicator, outboard pad still with approx. 90% pad life left although there is a groove in the rotor. Told dealer that this was unacceptable wear and he aknowledged it was a common complaint but not covered under warranty. A quick search of complaints on google affirms that this is indeed a common complaint and indicative of a serious design flaw on Honda's part.

Unknown Or Other problem #4

I was stopped at a stop sign with my foot on the brake of my 2009 Honda Civic when the car's engine suddenly revved to 4000rpm. I placed the car in park and the engine continued to rev at 4000rpm. The entire incident lasted about 10 seconds and then the engine returned to normal idling speed and I continued on my way. The vehicle, which has about 11,000 miles, is currently at a Honda dealer for evaluation.

Unknown Or Other problem #5

Car has 58,000k miles on it and replacing tires for the 4th time. The car continues to cause premature wear on tires even when car has a good alignment, tires are kept at correct air pressure level and rotated on a regular basis.

Unknown Or Other problem #6

My 2009 Honda Civic lx was a total waste of money, simply due to the "anti-whiplash" headrest. I am a 5'5" female, and I have been spending tons of money on chiropractor bills since purchasing my car! I know these are now standard issue, because I have been car shopping for months now, and all the cars (made after 2007) have the same stupid headrest. Who in the world decided these are safe and comfortable??? go to google and you will find forum after forum of people complaining, yet nothing is being done? americans are spending millions of dollars on cars (buying) but NHTSA is trying to make them as uncomfortable as possible. Maybe I should send you my chiropractor bills and a bill for the amount of my time that I am spending trying to find a new car/a comfortable solution??? my neck and back hurt----alot-----all the time now, because I have to drive my car daily, to get to work!!!!.
