general problems of the 2014 Honda Civic - part 2

The fill cap for the transmission keeps coming out of my transmission on my 2014 Honda Civic lx ans there is transmission fluid everywhere.

The plug for the automatic transmission fluid pops off and allows for all contaminates and water to enter transmission unknowingly. This was noticed at 94k miles on ours and on forums is a highly reoccurring item that needs to be addressed by Honda before transmissions begin failing from a "popping" plug that falls out while driving unbeknownst to the driver.

Started my car in neutral with the parking brake engaged. The car took off by itself up a curb over a hill and struck another vehicle. I managed to get back in the vehicle and applied the brakes but the brakes did not respond. And my car was serviced at freeway Honda in santa ana three days prior to the accident. I reported the problem with the brakes, they did a brake service, but they did not properly diagnose the issue and fix it. They told me they couldn’t find any problems and release the car back to me. Three days later it was in an accident and the brakes failed. Now freeway Honda has stated that they finally diagnosed the issue with the brakes, but they are refusing to fix it free of charge even though they have been deemed liable for the accident. My rear shocks were also damaged due to the impact of going up the curb and state farm is investigating that to see if they will be paying for the repair and replacement of the shocks.

I was driving home from work on the freeway and when I got off the freeway I stopped at the stop light when it turned green I started to push the gas pedal and the car started jerking back and forth like it wanted to stall I pushed on the gas a little more and it continued to jerk at each stop light when I accelerated. No warning light came on no codes and it just happened suddenly with out warning . I parked it and took it to the shop the following morning.

I was sold a lemon in July 2015 from victory Honda san bruno. My VIN comes up as a 2014 Civic lx instead of ex-l. I never noticed the model difference until I had to look up recalls etc 'cause my pulley shaft stopped@ 94kmiles whilr on the freeway. Honda in oakland&san bruno wanted $8k to fix it,ran my credit 4x for financing justtosay,not approved&my tranny cancels a $9k buyback/trade in. Honda of oakland allowed a rep. To switch my car info w/someone else's, my last name, mileage, model, etc &allowed someone to pickup my car from them &didn't notify me for 4days,they also wanted$600 for tests, service aorb,trany flush(I didn't authorize)&my car(no previous engine problems)still doesnt drive. It has only been serviced at those 2 Honda locations. I was never notified&have these issues. . Pulley shaft#ju2,tire bead #jd8,now the airbag recalls. On NHTSA. Gov/recalls,theres hundreds of owners w/my VIN #s minus the last 5-8 #s w/the same problems esp at 90k mile. My car is paid off.

I was driving my car on the city streets when the cvt transmission started to make the car act erratic stop and go stop and go. I had to put the transmission in neutral so that I could control it and move to the side of the road. I was so glad I wasn't on the freeway when this happened. I purchase the car used in April of 2015. I always had the car service at the dealership when service was due. And two years ago I had to replace the transmission because it completely shutdown after getting off the freeway. At that time the car had went over 100k miles so I had to pay $2000 to replace it. And it looks like I'm going to be paying $2000 again. I didn't know that there was a recall for the ctv transmission, until a few days ago when I was looking to see if any one else had this problem. Because I purchase the car used I wanted to see if the recall was taken care of, it looks like it was. But I don't think that a software update is the complete fix for this problem. So many people are still having problems with this transmission. Some with low mileage like my second transmission and most of them fail around 100k. I know nothing last for ever, and I will pay $2000 for a new transmission if I can be sure that it will not just all out of the blue lockup or brake part of the drive train and put my life in danger.

On January 17,2021, I was driving on a 2 lane road going approximately 75 mph (the speed limit) and all of a sudden all of my cars warning lights came on and the car started decelerating. When I pushed on the accelerator, the car reved but didn't pick up speed. I pulled over off the road and turned the car off and then back on. The car would start but nothing happens when I pressed on the accelerator. I had my car towed to a Honda dealership an hour away and they said it's going to be $6000 to replace the transmission. They said my specific car had no recalls on it and that sometimes things just break. The mechanic noted that my car is in excellent shape otherwise.

While I was driving down a busy interstate with numerous cars around me, my car gave a small jerk. After this, my car motor was still running, but had no power. When I pressed the gas, no power behind it. I was coasting and slowing down. After almost getting run over by the vehicle behind me, I was able to coast to the side of the road. There are multiple similar complaints with the transmission for this year model.

Starter clutch shudder/judder started before 41k miles. This is a long term (decades) known design issue with Honda Civic hybrids. This can impair ability of vehicle to start in traffic from a full stop and/or prevent vehicle from being able to travel up hills. Dealer recommends $380 'burnishing' procedure as a 'first step'. Starter clutch replacement is the next step (>= $2000). Vehicle just left warranty in December 2019.

The transmissions fill cap keep popping off and causing transmission fluid to spill as well as exposing the inside of the transmission to the elements, causing the transmission to jerk while driving.

This has happened countless times since the day I purchased my car and drove it off the lot. It doesn't matter how fast or slow I am driving, when I take my foot off of the gas pedal, my whole car jars forward like it is my transmission and it missed a gear. It has done this since I drove it home from purchasing it. It makes me nervous because my son is in the back seat and he can tell every time it happens because his head jolts forward.

I was driving and it felt like a tugging on the passenger front wheel. When I would turn the tugging was worse. Then I turned around to go home and the car wouldnt move at all. All the gears were gone. The gear will go in the gear every gear but it wont go forward or backward. I dont think it's the transmission but it's possible the passenger axle or something in there or I could be wrong and it's the tranny.

I was running errands and parked car in a lot. Upon return to the car, it started up but was not able to drive when I placed gear in drive or reverse. The car refused to move despite turning off engine and restarting it back up. Car had to be towed away. Found out there was a recall for this car which if not corrected can result in transmission problems. We had never gotten notice of this recall. We are the original owners and had not moved addresses. Car had less than 58k miles under the 60k miles powertrain warranty but was only 4 months over the 5 yrs period. American Honda was only willing to pay 50/50 for a new transmission. I was lucky the transmission did not go out while driving on freeway at a higher speed as that would have caused some major accident losing power with no advanced notice and having no control of the car. We feel if this recall was sent out and it was corrected, the transmission would not have gone out to begin with. It is very disappointing and scary to know there are other cars like mine out there which american Honda is not taking full responsibility for their product and putting harm in their customer's safety.

My vehicle transmission went out on the highway brakes locking up then smoking. I was told by Honda it wasn't covered by warranty but later found out it was a defect in the transmission which would cause the breakdown.

In December 2017 while driving the vehicle and proceeding from a stop sign the vehicle made a loud pop and began to roll backwards. The vehicle would only stop when pressing on the brake. Switching the shifter from drive to park did nothing and did not prevent the vehicle from free wheeling. After having the vehicle towed to the Honda dealership they informed us that the transmission broke apart internally at 86k miles. While Honda replaced the transmission and only charged us for labor I recently found out that there was a recall on this issue just not with our VIN number.

I recently purchased a 2014 Honda Civic from a local dealer and driving it for almost 3 weeks with no problems but last night on 08/30/2016 I parked the vehicle at a friends house in their driveway on a slight and put the vehicle in park and turned off the engine like I have been doing thousands of times and began exiting the car. The front door was obviously open and the vehicle began reversing! the front door knocked me down since I was so startled nothing has ever happened to me like that before. I have been driving for over 40 years. Fortunately, I am limber so immeadiately got up, jumped back into the vehicle and slammed on the brakes that did not work either so turned the car into the closest rockery to stop it before it hit another car or a house further down the hill. Obviously, my rear and front fenders are all badly scraped by the rocks clearly visible in the pictures I took. The rockery is fender high so no question. No other scratches could look like this. I went on line and sure enough, found a recall regarding the drive train transmission for this particular make and model. I needed to get this on the record since I could have been seriously hurt.

2014 Honda Civic. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle transmission recall notice 15v-574. The consumer stated he received a recall notice in the mail, and scheduled an appointment. The dealer did a software change. However, the consumer stated the software changed only reduced the stress on weak pulley shafts and therefore, the fix was only temporary, because the pulleys were still weak.

I received a recall stating my car had a faulty part in the transmission that could break and lock up the wheels. There fix is to reprogram the engine so it exerts less stress on the faulty part. I feel this is a serious safety issue and that the defective part should be replaced.

Received recall NHTSA recall 15v-574. Under high stress drive pully shafts with low hardness can break! remedy is to reprogram cvt to reduce stress. Very serious safety issue and no guarantee it will prevent breakage. Needs shaft replaced!!.

I was driving,my son has bipolar disorder and he was on the passenger seat;he got upset and shifted gear from driving to neutral while I was driving at about 60 miles per hr. Isn't suppose to lock geat while the car is moving?.

This is the seventh (7) complaint I have filed in regard to a new Honda Civic I purchased from frank fletcher Honda in bentonville, ar. The car has also been taken to the dealership seven times with no resolution. I am still being forced to drive a vehicle which is not safe. At approximately 1:45 p. M. My husband picked me up from work for lunch. As we were driving down the rode, we felt a "slipping" movement and the car began to stall out. Following this was a series of small jerking movements as we continued to drive. A week ago my attorney filed legal documents under the arkansas auto lemon law against Honda America. The vehicle has met all requirements under this law. I am hoping NHTSA will take my complaints seriously and monitor Honda America's actions towards consumers and the vehicles that are being sold which have safety issues.

This is the sixth complaint I've made to NHTSA for the same issue. I purchased the car new from frank fletcher Honda and it's been to the dealership seven times from September through December 2014 with no resolution. On Sunday December 21 the car had two separate incidents where it stalled out. The first was at approximately 8:45 a. M. My husband was driving to the neighborhood market to pick up breakfast items when the car stalled out. The second incident occurred when me and my 15-year-old were driving to kohl's to do some christmas shopping at approximately 3:30 p. M. It stalled out as I was turning off the main road into the parking lot. This upset me, especially since my child was in the car. I don't want anything to happen to her due to a flaw in the vehicle. I have no choice, however, since we only have one vehicle. I need help reaching a resolution with Honda America and frank fletcher Honda. I have a problem with the car every time I drive it.

On December 20 at approximately 1:30 p. M. , my husband was running an errand to the store when the car stalled out while driving on a two-lane road. The car was purchased new from frank fletcher Honda in bentonville, ar. The car has been brought back to the dealership six times from September through December 2014. This is my sixth (6) complaint to NHTSA. Frank fletcher Honda technicians state they cannot replicate the issue. I have expressed to general manager ryan blake that I disagree with the findings as I drive the vechile every day. I have had issues with the car since I purchased it. While sumpathetic, mr. Blake stated there was nothing he or the dealership could do. After expressing my concern for the safety of my family, I have been forced to drive this car as it is the family's only source of transportation. Mr. Blake, mr. Fletcher, and the dealership technicians basically ignored my concerns until NHTSA was contacted. Hondaamerica has also become involved be there has been no resolution. I am reaching out and asking that a resolution be reached so I not have to drive what I consider to be an unsafe vehicle. I don't really like to talk about this but I have an incurable liver disease and it would put my mind to rest if I knew I have reliable transportation.

On Friday, December 19 at approximately 2 p. M. , my husband and I were pulling out of the parking lot out onto a four-lane road when the car stalled. Out. I had just gotten my haircut and was heading back to work. I purchased this as a new car from frank fletcher Honda in bentonville, ar. The car has been brought back to the dealership six times from September through December. The technicians and the dealership general manager ryan blake have stated they cannot replicate the issue. Due to this, the dealership, mr. Blake and the dealership owner frank fletcher are giving me no choice other than to drive a vehicle I'm afraid to drive. Hondaamerica has now become involved in the situation but there has been no resolution. I have a child who rides in this car and I fear for her and my safety.
