Wiper Problems of Honda Civic - part 2

On 24 Feb 2021, while driving down a state road at about 50 mph, my moonroof suddenly exploded outward. The moonroof was closed at the time of the explosion. I had not passed under any overpass (dropped object), nor was I passing or had I been passed by another vehicle (thrown debris). The vehicle in front of me was over 200 yards away. When the moonroof unexplainably exploded, moonroof glass was thrown across my roof and trunk, scratching the paint. The repair bill from my local dealership for just the moonroof repair was $976. 66. I feel there can be no other explanation to the exploded moonroof other than some type of defect with the car. The glass exploded outward, and the entire glass was shattered. It was not a "rock chip" or other type of damage since nothing else was in the area.

The air bag white has been on for so long and I didn't know there was a recall I sideswiped a car it was not my fault the other night and the airbag didn't deploy and I bumped my head.

1. Safety recall notice indicative of air bag problem. Took to dealer. He said that it has been fixed after an hour of stay for passenger inflator-and when noticed while driving back, the airbag light came again. Prior to this also, this problem was notified a few years ago, and I got it fixed. Dealer asking money for doing diagnostics and then fixing it. 2. Front and rear bumper clips fixed several times-4 times spending my own money but always a problem.

Both sun visors (driver and passenger) fail to stay in their position, resulting in them rotating down, creating a safety hazard; obstructing visibility thru front windshield. Additionally because the visors don't stay in their position, they hang down creating an immediate safety hazard to any unsuspecting occupant getting into or out of the vehicle because you strike your head on the mispositioned visors. The driver side visor on our vehicle has been replaced twice (10-21-2010, mileage 21188 and 7-3-2012, mileage 27839 under TSB). It is well over due needing to be replaced a third time. It appears only after a class action lawsuit cooper v. American Honda motor CO. , inc. , did Honda issue TSB 11-031 to replace driver side (ds) visors. The root cause of the failure and the consequence, obstructed visibility and immediate striking hazards have not been addressed and continues to occur. I have contacted, 8-1-2022, Honda's customer service and reported this reoccurring issue to them and they said they have no obligation to address the visor issue due to the age and mileage limitations established in their service bulletin. Our vehicle has only 97591 miles on it. Well below the mileage limit. What gives them the right to establish the duration of liability for their defective product? safety should be their number one concern. Please give me some guidance as to how to proceed to address this immediate safety issue with my vehicle. This inherent problem revealed itself 4 years after purchase. Honda has not corrected the problem. Please send me a response you received this submission. Thank you. Ps how do I attach a video of visors rotating unassisted?.

Progressive failing of the multiplex control unit, part # 38200-s5p-a11, for my 2002 Honda Civic hx 5sp has resulted in various problems that can prove to be very dangerous such as failure of turn signals, tail lights, windshield wiper motor, dashboard lights, dome light, power door locks, etc. Exactly when these failures occurred are hard to pin point but so far I have avoided property and bodily harm but not great inconvenience and repair cost. Please act to prevent this problem from causing harm or loss of life.

2017 Honda Civic with 23,400 miles a/c once again stopped working. System was checked by Honda and re-charged under warranty but a/c is not working again. This created a dangerous driving scenario in which the front window would not defrost during a heavy rainstorm.

The ac system on these models have a factory defect. I was driving on the surface streets the windshield became foggy, I could not see traffic in front of me and suddenly stopped in the middle of the road. I got out of the car and cleaned the windshield with the piece of towel. Because the car's ac was not working it could not defogg the windshield. I have contacted Honda, but Honda doesn't repair it. It is a safety issue.

The winshield has cracked twice in the one year I have owned it. It costs $1,000 to repair it. I have never had a winshield crack in 33 years of owning cars. There is an issue causing this to occur. I had a rock chip in both instances.

Small rock hit lower driver side of windshield and made a very small nick about 6 months ago. I drove home from work Friday and upon getting my car ready Sunday evening for work the next day we noticed a crack. I can only assume this initiated where that rock hit and after googling the issue I realize I'm not alone in this. The windshield of the Honda 2016 and newer is garbage. It is weak and unsafe. That small crack from Sunday has now reached halfway across the windshield and I cannot drive my car until it is fixed on Wednesday afternoon for fear of it caving in. Why hasn't Honda addressed this issue? it's been four years of numerous complaints! the crack is growing at an incredibly and terrifying rate that it is completely unsafe. The first picture was at 7am, the second at 5pm, and the third at 9:30pm.

Air conditioning condenser was replaced under recall Jan. 2019. Ac stopped working by June, 2020. Condenser needed to be replaced again, but was on back-order. Over 5 weeks later, condenser was replaced in August 2020, but dealer reported compressor was leaking and needed to be replaced, for about $1,200. Honda refuses to cover more than 30% of that cost, according to both a regional representative and a Honda of America representative. The compressor is on back-order, indicating that a high number of compressors are failing. All the above work and diagnosis were performed by Honda dealer the automaster, shelburne, vt. The car has under 33,000 miles and is less than 4 years old. I'm the original owner. There appears to be a class action for this issue, initiated in California, case 2:19-cv-10537, filed Dec. 2019, us district court for central district of California. Having no ac is a safety issue in at least two ways: it's dangerous to drive in a hot car, and a fogged windshield obstructing driver's vision can't be cleared without ac. Honda should cover the full cost of correcting these safety issues.

6 weeks ago the air conditioner/windshield defogger stopped working in my 2017 Honda Civic that I purchased new with a 7 year/120000 mile warranty. I took it to the dealership who diagnosed condenser failure but claims they are unable to obtain parts to perform repair. Every time I call I get the same "in a few days" excuse.

The contact stated that the vehicle windshield defrost system failed, and caused the contact to be unable to defrost the windshield when driving in inclement weather. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to ide Honda 875 panorama trl s, rochester, NY 14625 phone number (585) 586-2820 where it was diagnosed that the air conditioner compressor failed due to a defective condenser that was allowing the freon to escape. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was 65,000.

Unknown got on wrong highway because wippers malfunction in heavy rain.

Engine runs slow and accelarating makes it slower windshield broke by itself when doing carwash.

I was driving 70 on the free way in the far left lane and my tire blew and I ended up hitting the rail all the way on the right lane.

I was driving down interstate 30 at 70 mph when I heard a large explosion. I pulled off of the interstate to check my tires and finally realized the sunroof exploded. It was not raining, there was not a dump truck in front of me, I was not on my phone or distracted, I was paying close attention to the road and the sunroof exploded out of the blue. There was no point of impact below the glass insert, but the entire sunroof was shattered into a million pieces.

I purchased a 2016 Honda Civic for my son in 2016. I received a notice about ac problems this year. I contacted my son and asked him if he had problems with the a/c. He reported that it doesn't blow very much air and the air never gets cold. So I had him take to dealership. He was told that the recall for a/c affected only one part of the unit which they could fix under no cost. . . But they said that there was a huge hole in the air compressor and this was not covered. They quoted over $2,000 to replace air compressor. I found this hard to believe and researched to find out what causes a hole in the compressor that makes it beyond repair and the only information I could find were others having the same problem with 2016 Honda Civic faulty air compressors. Again when I tested it myself, it was not blowing cold air and sometimes not blowing air at all. Since I purchased vehicle, it seems like system was not fully capable of defrosting windows in front and back and figured the design was bad.

The back wiper remained in fast speed until shutting off vehicle. Twice. Second time length of approx 5 minutes. Then operated normally. 12/09/19 2nd. Radio has been changing stations on it's own. And the the phone has been asking me to set up with blue tooth when I am driving. I have shut off the radio and it seems to re-set itself. This has been going on for about month. 11/09/19.

Wiper blades makes loud rubbing noise, because wiper arms are pressed very hard against windshield causing friction between the blades and windshield. I installed new wipers from sam's club, still loud noise is not going away. This problem existed ever since I bought brand new Civic in 2010, but due to light usage mostly in dry days, I ignored this problem. I feel car is unsafe to drive in rain or snow due to poorly designed wiper arms or wiper assembly. I have only driven 54,000 miles since 2010.

I was driving down i45 at about 70mph when I heard a really loud pop. Confused, I was looking in all my mirrors trying to find out what happened, as I knew I didn't hit anything or feel anything. I hear loud wind noises, and open my sunroof shade to find 90 % of my sunroof had exploded up and out onto the freeway. Nothing hit my sunroof. I wasn't driving behind anyone for at least a 1/4 mile. I didn't drive under an overpass. I was in the far right late, so nothing came from the other side. It just exploded. The glass remaining was angled outward, not inside my car. I have done my research. This is a recurring problem and needs to be addressed. The Honda of spring dealership will not cover it under my warranty. This is a defect/manufacturing problem. The service manager even told me this isn't the first time he's seen it. . . . And you dont think its a problem?.

The front windshield easily gets chipped and cracked from kicked up debris from other vehicles. Driving, I have received 3 cracks in my windshield that have splintered badly. These incidents happen during driving on a paved road that has 2 lanes going the same direction. Debris was kicked up from other vehicles driving in front of me. I have owned many cars in the past and have never had a problem of this magnitude.

In 2012 I purchased a 2010 Honda Civic ex coupe. I started having issues with the sun visors breaking. At first my warranty covered the cost and then out of pocket expense of $150. 00 each time I had to replace. The issue is the safety of not being able to see in the sun light or the evening, due to the broken sun visors dangling in my line of sight. Enclosed are pictures of the broken sun visors pass and present. I will have to be replacing the drivers side once again for my safety, due to the sharp pointy object by my head where the sun visor was attached to. I did call Honda corp and report the issue only again and the safety issue of the point object by my head. I took my Honda to the service department and they would have to replace the whole sun visor. Both the service person and mechanic had to careful place themselves in my Honda to ensure they did not poke the head on the sharp pointy object.

The driver's side visor has split and just hangs down in the line of vision. . . . I purchased a new genuine Honda visor and the same thing is happening to it. Now the passenger side visor is also beginning to split. Honda will not stand behind their defective visors. It is not overused or abused in any way. My vehicle is always well maintanined.

Ac expansion valve failed prematurely (before 50,000 mi) but outside of factory warranty. Causes ac to be inoperative and windows to fog up and impair visibility, especially in very humid weather. It is also a safety issue since ambient temperatures in TX and the south can easily reach 100+ before any effects of the sun or humidity.

The passenger visor will not go back up and hangs down which could have an effect if the passenger airbag deploys, the visor might snap if it is forced back up and visibility could be a problem if the sun comes in that way. I have major concerns for deployment of the passenger airbag. The visor is stationary and in motion on the highway and on city streets as well as turning on all roads.

Takata recall hi I am having several issues with the ignition not wanting to turn for several moments after putting the key inside to start my 2007 Honda xivic lx sedan and then all of a sudden the lights and power to the doors and windows work but car won't roll over to start. The car has been flashing a wrench like bar along with what looks like shape of the motor for 2 months as well ad I've just had an oil change done 4 days ago but yet it still reads oil life 5% b1 on the dash which won't clear nothing was wrong with spark plus or anything else under hood from valvoline's stand point when checked other than wipers don't never want to shut off as well. Thank you and regards lucy clutier phone number (989)907-9313.

The day I bought this car the ac went out. I had to go back to dealer the next morning. I later on learned they just fiddled with it to make it work temporarily. By the next summer ac went out again, this time defrosters didn't work, heater didn't work, ac obviously didn't work. And ive been dealing with it like this for over 2 years. Honda is not helping at all.

2016 Honda Civic, air conditioning quit working causing the defroster not to work creating a dangerous visibility because the windshield remained foggy.

Driving through a thunderstorm in 2019 on sb highway 49 in arkansas. Large bolt of lightning in the distance with very loud thunder. My windshield wipers cam to ta complete stop and started up again within a few seconds. Date of occurrence is only approx.

The vehicle was running and in park when the rear window shattered for no apparent reason. It was about 60 degrees outside and the front and rear defrosters were on. The glass was still in new condition. There is no real explanation. Among the witnesses was the sales manager to the dealership. Even with that, the dealership still refused to treat it as a warranty repair.

I had the wipers on and it was raining. The wipers stopped working before they reached the down position on the windshield. They would not work after that. I was driving the car on a city street going forward.
