1 Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2019

On 10-31-19, driving my 2016 Honda Civic 1. 5 turbo engine taking my kids to school. Car was driving well, until a reach about 1 mile, while making a left turn the car loss power and can only drive up to 15 mph. I have to drive my car back home and get my other car. The Honda never regains normal power. The same date in the evening, I drove the Honda for about 3 miles around my neighborhood and never loss power. The following date, I drove the car and suddenly again loss power while making a right turn a block away from my house. Drove back my Honda back to my house with the car never regaining normal power. The Honda Civic only drives well for less than a quarter mile and then suddenly loss power, especially when making a turn. This is a safety hazard. When the car loss power it only drives up to 15 mph (which takes several seconds to reach 15 mph) and never regain normal power. This loss of power started on 10-31-19, which was a very cool day about 24-degree fahrenheit. My car is not driver able any longer. Now that this happen, I research problems with 2016 Civic and found out that Honda had an issue with 1. 5 turbo engine since 2017. One month and half prior to this happen, I took my car to the Honda dealer services twice and only want to charge me with things that the warranty did not cover and could not tell me what was wrong with my car. Honda dealer should had known the problems my car has are relate to oil dilution in the engine, but decided not to address it. Now, I have a car that is not driver able and not safe to drive. Honda place my family life in danger, such that the street around our city, cars drives between 55 to 70 mph. This easily could cause a car to re-end or t-bone the car while making a turn on a busy traffic street.

2 Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2018

I have a Honda Civic 2016 and my ac was not working since last year 2018. I took my car to the dealer ship and being told that I need to pay $295 for the diagnosis which I refused to do it. I did some research to see if anyone has the same problem and yess they do and a lot. I took my car to the dealer ship today after I got recalled letter for the condenser. After 6 hrs, they called me and told me that my condenser is good, but my compressor is not and the repair fee will be up to $1200. If I refuse to fix it, I still need to pay $395 for the diagnosis fee which is stupid. I looked it up again and had read a lot of complaint about the compressor. I am paying off my car which I own for almost 4 years and now everything is already broken. This is my first Honda car and I regret that I chose Honda. I hope Honda do some research and read about people complaint and do something about it. Never buy Honda again.
