general problems of the 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel seized with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the steering wheel was difficult to turn. The contact also stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was able to restart. The contact stated that the battery was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

My cars steering wheel locks up and car stalls when the 12 volt battery constantly dies at red lights and on the highway.

Because of manufacturer error - the upper control arms are making the tires wear out fast and unever. Rear tires have toe - out appearance. There was a class action suit that expired in February. Elderly couple who bought car new, did not know that there was an issue - I was told by Honda that the free repair from the class action suit was no longer available. My car kas 82ooo miles on it and it should be fixed for free, because the probably started at the factory.

The rear axle has been making a loud humming noise at speeds of (50-55 mph). Tires are very badly cupped in the rear, despite being relatively new. Cupped tires cause a dangerous situation when driving. The car seems unstable on tight turns, as well as high speeds. Tire cupping happened despite having new tires and a wheel alignment done when they were put in. This is a problem of every Honda civic 06-08 owner I have encountered, and there is plenty of evidence on online forums to confirm this information. Honda needs to issue a recall on the rear camber arms of the civic 07, as they cause dangerous premature tire wear that may cause, or in the least contribute to, injury or death.

On multiple occassions at different speeds and different times during the day, weather, terrain, location, the power steering will randomly go out on the car. The most recent was on 9/4 when I was driving on 1-5. I am taking it to dealer tomorrow. I have researched this and see that many Honda civic hybid owners are complaining of the same thing.
