Engine oil level continuously creeping above max fill line after every oil change. Note: oil measured at same location in garage and at same temperature, and oil allowed sufficient time to drain back into oil pan.

Tl the contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. Upon taking the vehicle to an independent mechanic, the contact was informed that the engine was leaking freon. The contact informed atlantic Honda (1375 sunrise hwy, bay shore, NY 11706, (631) 665-0005) of the defect and was informed that he would have to pay for diagnostic testing. The contact also notified the manufacturer and was informed that the vehicle was not under warranty; therefore, the contact would be responsible for the repair costs. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 25,000.

Takata recall. I've had this car for 3 yrs. The problem with it is that, when I come to a stop while driving it doesn't wanna take off. It hesitates for about 30 sec. The problem is that its dangerous when I turn left it stays in the middle of the st and I can get hit. At one point I had to put it in emergency lights and turn it off and on. Then it worked. Its been doing it for about 4 months at least twice a day. It started in about April. At first it wasn't that often then it started everyday. It happens anywhere, st highway, fwy, city even when I wanna reverse. Im not sure why its doing it I've taken it to the mechanic about 4 times. I do all oil changes everything , tire changes, rotations, the mechanic can't find anything. He even changed a sensor and it still does it.

Ac compressor leaking.

Strong fuel smell in the engine along with the oil above the fill line after checking it.

When the warmer weather started, I noticed my air conditioning was only giving out cold air on the passenger side. When brought to the local mechanic, they said they could not assess what was wrong with the air conditioner due to the design of the car for that year. I brought it to the Honda dealer for repairs on may 20, 2019 where they said I needed a new condenser due to a leak. They could not say what caused the leak, but the Honda service representative stayed that due to the design of the engine that year, something as simple as a rock could have easily punctured the condenser. The total amount in repairs was $907 on a three year old vehicle. It was also stated that since this is such a well-known issue, I could not file a claim through my comprehensive insurance.

Estoy teniendo problemas con mi carro cuando el carro esta en modo parkin esta bien pero no mas lo muevo a modo DE manejo. Empiesa a temblar cuando paro en una luz. Lo rpm bajan y empiesa a temblar lugo lo muevo a parking otra vez y se pone normal. El carro est gastanfo mucha gasolina casi no lo uso. Apenas tengo ni un mes que lo compre.

While driving my 2016 Honda ex-t dashboard lights started lighting up -emmision, eps, brake hold, etc the car immediately went into" limp mode" while traveling at 70 on the highway. I am told this caused a turbo problem and the turbo will have to be replaced. While researching on the internet this seems to be a common and reoccurring problem that is not being addressed. Since it is a common problem it seems with out Honda addressing the problem this will occur again with a new turbo. I am unsure if the multiple warning lights for problems that did not exist caused the turbo problems but it seems likely. Since when these lights come on the car is designed to go into limp mode. This needs to be addressed. Luckily I am an experienced driver and was able to handle the automatic drastic decline with out breaking while driving and coming to an almost complete stop. Had the highway been busy this certainly would of resulted in an accident.

Vehicle was parked on driveway, when turned on it had battery and electric issues (battery just replaced by professional) ac blows out hot air (ac fluid just refilled as well by professional) and back door won't open from inside. Car was purchased less than two years ago and already malfunctioning.

Motor oil in the engine is being diluted by gasoline. A strong gasoline smell is present when examining the dip stick.

Tl- the contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds the vehicle had experienced jerking and hesitation and on occasions while operating the vehicle multiple warning lights would suddenly display indicating failures with the braking system, steering, stability control etc. After turning the vehicle off and then restarting the engine the vehicle would operate as normal. The cause of the failures were not diagnosed and repaired. The manufacturer and local dealer apple Honda 1(801 whiteford rd. York PA. ) were both notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 45,000. Jft.

Stationary car completely shut down, would not start, battery check ok, could not take out of park, had to have it towed to shop and have tcm replaced and software updated- in motion -steering wheel slips and shakes as well - very disappointed in Honda.

I got into the trunk of my Civic (keyless) and when I tried to open the car, everything had shut down and it is locked and won't respond to the emergency key or the fob. This began 2 days ago and I see several other complaints o the internet of the same problem. It was parked in my driveway. Not being able to get into my car here in the arizona desert could be a serioue problem.

May 2016, I purchased the re-designed 2016 Honda Civic coupe lx. On July 13, 2018, my ac was no longer blowing cold air. It was luke warm if that. The dealer put dye in my ac to determine any leaks. They assured me that there were no leaks but rather - my 2 year old Civic - had a low charge in the system and I was charged $312 for them to recharge my ac. They told me that it was not covered under warranty. I paid the $312. They checked my car again on July 27, 2018 and assured me that there were no leaks in my ac. Well, 1 year later my car is back at the dealer for the exact same issue - ac is not blowing cold. I took my car in on June 14, 2019. On June 18 2019 I received a call saying that my ac was leaking in 2 parts - the evaporator (which they told me was a defective part and would be replaced under my warranty) and the condenser had a hole in in. The condenser is not covered under my warranty because of outside influence. So now a $700 bill I must pay. As I have come to find online - there are hundreds of 2016 Civic owners experiencing the exact same issue with their ac. The location of the condenser appears to be a design flaw and I now the run the risk of encountering this problem every year because something can hit the condenser as I drive. I don't feel safe driving this car because I don't know if something will kick up and hit the condenser. On June 26, 2019 as they were performing the repair, I was told my entire ac unit is contaminated??? how is that possible with a closed system that I have not touched. Last year there were no issues/no leaks - per the dealer. And, now, I need a whole new ac and my condenser and evaporator are leaking!! obviously, there is an issue here. I'm currently waiting to hear from the dealer to make sure this new unit is covered under my extended warranty. All of this on a 3 year old new car!.

Engine oil level above maximum level, and the engine oil smells like gasoline.

I love my Civic and I debated if reporting the issue, but in the interest of safety here it when you have to brake hard and suddenly (someone cuts you off) the car loses power (will not accelerate just coasts) for a second or two, but it seems like an eternity if you are in an intersection trying to get out of the way of aggresive traffic. After that power is back and the car is as excellent as it always has been. Incident has happened 3 or 4 times since I got the car in 2016.

A rodent crawled up into the engine compartment and chewed up the wires to coil connector. It made all of the dashboard warning lights to come on and the engine was shaking due to the mis-firing coil. It is Honda fault because they covered/made the wires with soy, which attracts rodents. My 2016 Civic is less than 2 years old with 9,500 miles, Honda claims it is not covered under the warranty. Honda then, wanted to sell me a $500 engine wiring harness, this is ridicules, because it doesn't resolve the problem, the rodents will be attracted to the new wire harness too. They also wanted to sell me spicy rodent tape for $48, this is a scam, Honda needs to fix this problem, they will be losing loyal customers. If this happened on the freeway, it could have resulted in a fatal accident.

Every time I change or check my oil, there is a strong gasoline smell. When I take the dip stick out and smell it, all I smell is gasoline.

Brought 2016 Honda Civic to dealership with a/c not properly working (blowing warm air), was told prior to drop off that it was likely a stone that hit the condenser causing a leak. Diagnostic test cost $135 + tax, was told that it was a stone that punctured the condenser, was assimilated to "just as if a stone had hit the windshield and cracked it, it would not be covered. " windshields are designed to deflect debris. This is not covered under warranty, and appears to be a common (previous class action lawsuit was settled on earlier Honda vehicles with this exact problem: "a rock puncturing the condenser" due to design flaw). This is absurd to not take care of the issue and charge consumers $900+ for a problem that could easily happen again if a "small rock or pebble" is able to puncture a part. 17,800 miles on the vehicle, 18 months old. If a small pebble can ruin a customer's air conditioning system on a brand new vehicle, which per warranty guidelines is neither an "accident" or "abuse" to the vehicle, is this vehicle even suited to be on the road? very disappointing as I was a life long Honda owner.

Honda use soy on wires because is cheaper than plastic ,but it attract rats and rodents that love to chew on it . Witch result in car crash and expensive repairs . I have a new 2016 Honda car 6 months old witch I had to pay 1481 $ even though I have a 5 years engine warranty. . Read more...

1) the ac only have cool air but it is not cold. It is not even as cold as the outside air. The technician said that the compressor and condenser is working fine, so it has to be the systems leaking air. 2) the front passenger window is occasionally cannot roll down by both buttons from driver or passenger side. It has to take a while and aggressively pushed down the button from passenger side multiple tike to be able to roll the window down. 3) touch screen intermitten automatically flickering like someone pressing on it.

Engine eaten by rats 2 times; engine harness destroyed first time; car hasn't been the same since this; found more rat droppings in the engine; car shakes so bad the rear view mirror is hard to see out of car is not stable on any road; alignment has been done 4 times on vehicle still not aligned; have taken to dealer multiple times they tell me its the road; car does not shift properly; when turn on car it shakes for about 5 minutes until warmed up. I don't feel safe in this vehicle.

My vehicle break some time docent work. . . . Lighting is not proper and engine does nice even I do servicing and mention them but it got ignored by service center.

Me an my boyfriend almost got into an accident when the engine of our vehicle stopped working in the middle of the highway. Luckily we were able to pull over at the last second when the engine actually stopped. We were still in a dangerous area and I couldn't even describe to aaa where were. Fortunately a tow truck driver was passing by and saw us on the side of the road and stopped to help us. Just to give some back story my boyfriend was reading an article about a recall for the piston ring/clip affecting the engine on the 2016 Honda Civics and we immediately went to our dealership and had the car inspected. We were told that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle and that there was not a recall on the vehicle. Later on warning lights in the car started to turn on included the brake and engine light. We had a worker at autozone check the lights with one of their tools and were told the lights may have been turned off in the initial inspection of the vehicle prior to our purchase. We went back twice speaking to the manager and service team and were turned away with a list of all of the lights on in the vehicle with no remedy to fix any of the issues. When we brought up the recall again we were told our car did not fall under it. Because of their negligence I and my boyfriend could Ave lost our lives in an accident on the highway. We bought the car may 2016 and the recall was issued February 2016 and was still open at the time of purchase considering the parts to fix the piston problem would not be available until summer. So we were sold a car with an open recall and the issue was not fixed prior to purchase. Now I am stranded without a car because the engine has sustained damage due to this issue. I want my money back and I no longer want this faulty and unsafe vehicle, and I do not trust Honda to fix the issue. We need your help NHTSA!.

I leased a brand new 2016 Honda Civic on Friday, February 26, 2016 and drove off the lot with 5 miles on the odometer. On Monday, February 29, 2016, my car started to shake, the engine light came on as well as other indicators on the car, I was not able to accelerate or properly operate the vehicle. Fortunately, I was able to pull over and called the dealer who towed the car to the service department. I am being told that it is a low compression problem in the cylinders and that it had to do with the rocker arm not that it is part of this piston problem. However, I do not know what to think at this point. They are keeping my car until Wednesday. I have notified the manufacturer to see if my car was part of the stop sale order. I am concerned because this is a safety issue because I drive my grandchild on a daily basis and do not want to lose engine power and I will have this car for 3 more years.

Took delivery of 2016 Honda Civic 1 1/2 weeks ago. Currently 350 miles. Contacted american Honda today in regards to piston snap ring recall. Currently Honda has no fix for vehicles affected. Would like for Honda to provide alternative transportation until engine can be repaired/replaced or buy the vehicle back since dealers have been forced to stop selling 2016 Civics. I do not feel safe driving brand new car any longer. Every time I start vehicle Honda is putting my life and the lives of everyone else around me in jeopardy!.

I was sold a Honda Civic two days after the stop sale was issued by Honda. It would seem the dealer is negligent and should be responsible. Honda is going to open these new engines? it would seem the whole car should be recalled.

I was sold a brand new 2016 Honda Civic the day after a recall and stop of sale was issued. Now 5 days later I am having issues with the car. I contacted America of Honda and they confirmed my car does have a recall and I provided me with a case number. Can someone please tell me who indeed to talk about this issue with?.
