1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 07/07/2020

A couple of times while im stopped at a red light my car stalls, I took it to a Honda dealer but they didnt find anything wrong with it. I'm worried that I get in to a car accident if my car suddenly stops while im driving.

2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2019

My air condition compressor is defective and leaking the new very flammable refrigerant r1234yf gas out from the compressor itself. The shaft seal seems to be where it is leaking. This is a known problem and Honda should issue a recall to replace all of the defective compressors they installed in their cars.

3 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 10/13/2016

Car stalls; with no warning just turns off this happens with no rhyme or reason and has happened multiple times many of which is not documented because it was not taken into a dealer; I could not afford a tow. I have now signed up for aaa and had it towed into a dealer this last occurrence. Documented with dealerships on 5/12/16 car had 396 miles on it; 6/3/16 car had 2722 miles on it; 10/13/16 car had 10745 miles on it and this is the time the service department had it happen to them nine times before it suddenly stopped happening. Happened going 75 mph going down the interstate. Happens when pulling out of a parking lot. Happens driving down a city street. Have contacted Honda corp (case#05150093) and asked for help but have not had a resolution. The Honda service department has recreated the issue (copy of service ticket attached) then all of a sudden they could not get it to happen again so they told my son to come get it and drive it until it happens again then call them to tow it back in. This car is unsafe and he could lose his life and potentially many others. Please help. I don't want to lose my son or any other life be taken because Honda will not stand behind their product.

4 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 02/09/2016

I purchased the new car on 11/30/2015. Since then, it has been driven 22 miles. I learned of recall on 2/9/16 on news. I was not contacted by dealer or Honda about it. I contacted dealer on 2/11/16 who in turn contacted Honda. Being a new car with only 22 miles on it (3 trips--the first being the drive home from the dealership), I requested a replacement. I believe this is more than reasonable. . Honda refused. I was advised tools to examine for the problem and repair parts were not available. Since the car can not be fixed at this time, it is a safety liability, and Honda was not willing to do the right thing, I filed a lemon law complaint with the ohio attorney general. They were of no help with Honda now refusing to refund my money or replace the car. To date ( 2/25/16), I have received no recall paperwork from Honda. They expect to send it out sometime in March. Driving this vehicle presents potential dangerous safety- liability issues for me, my family, passengers and others should it stall, cause an accident or catch fire. I did not buy this new vehicle to drive under these conditions. But since Honda announced the recall and stop sales order on 1/29/2016 until now, this is what I face and who knows how long it will continue. Parts may be available this summer. What are we supposed to do? this is not the new car experience I expected, and I did not buy the car to be injured, to damage the engine, or be held responsible for an accident with my insurance picking up the tab. I am not the only 2016 Civic owner in this situation. Why so long to notify us of this dangerous recall to the engine no less? I see Honda has indemnified itself. What about us and our safety? I want my vehicle replaced or a refund. I did not buy a new vehicle to repair it with only 22 miles on it. This is far from the typical safety recalls we usually see.
