Abnormal cracked and peeling paint on the hood, roof and trunk. Honda is aware of this problem and issued an extension but has never provided a notification to owners affected by this known issue. I am now one year past due and only found out there was an issue when my local body shop advised me to call.
Top part of sun visor cracked causing inability of visor to stay in up position.
Sunvisor cracked at the seam, thus cannot stay up and maintain at the position laying flat on the roof.
One-owner 2010 Honda Civic with 33,000 miles-- the driver side sun visor can no longer stay in the "up" position. It has cracked where the hinge spring is, and may soon fall apart.
1. The paint on the roof is fadding in big blotches. 2. The rubber around the front and side windows is cracked and brittle. 3. Headlamp covers are cloudy 4. Visors warp. This is the second time. . . . . . 5. Tire cracking.
Plastic part of car key housing fell from the metal part of the key and engine shut off. At home, after the key housing fell to the car floor, I examined it. The plastic key housing had fine cracks where metal part of key was supposed be secured with a tiny screw that was still in the metal key. The fine cracks was enough to allow the housing to open and slip off the metal key. Apparently, the metal end of the key isn't long enough to be a lever when turning on the ignition. The plastic housing of the key twisted when turning on the ignition and resulted in the cracks at the base of the key. Without the programmed chip attached to the metal key, the ignition shuts off.
My 2010 Civic has 40,000 miles now. I have had to replace the windshield due to the factory seal leaking and causing water to come into my car. Hendrick Honda in bradenton, FL advised it was due to "luck of the draw. . . Very bad luck" and "I've never seen this happen before. " however, it was not covered by warranty. In the state of FL your car insurance will pay to replace your windshield only if there is a crack in the windshield so that was $300+ out of pocket. My drivers side sun visor has split in two causing it to dangle in front of my face. . . Again not covered by warranty. The dealer quoted $100 per visor for replacement.
Sun visor cracks because of hot weather. The similar incident happened before for Honda Civic model from 2006 to 2009. I believe Honda still used some defective sun visors on some Honda Civic vehicles.
Sunvisor on drives side cracked at seam and unable to return to the up position. Ubstucting view. Had to remove visor to continue driving. The passenger side had same problem, two months later. Dealer replaced no cost to me; however, stated it this occured again I would be responsible for repair. Both time dealer had part in stock, I found that a sun visor would be in stock.
