The contact owns a 2010 Honda Civic Hybrid. The contact stated that the driver's side sun visor fractured, causing it to drop and block the driver's visibility of the roadway. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the technician stated that the sun visor assembly needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 35,000 and the current mileage was 35,900.
The instrumental panel indicator, the parking brake, the climate control system, and the audio system are malfunctioning. On a road trip in July, the air conditioner (ac) stopped blowing out cold air while we were driving on the highway. However, if we put it on auto or fan, we would get cold air as though the ac is working. A few weeks later, the radio turned on by itself while I was driving on a city street even though I did not turn it on or did I hit a bump, which could reasonably explain it coming on. The radio was a one time event. And lastly, the brake light has been randomly and continuously came on and off on the instrumental panel while I'm driving as though I had left the parking brake on. This used to happen more when I'm making a turn or accelerating on city streets, but lately, the light has been coming on/off no matter if I'm turning or going straight or on a highway or city street. I plan on bringing the car into the dealership in a few weeks to have it checked out. P. S. The windshield wipers on this car do not adequately work fast enough in heavy rain as my other vehicles, making visibility a real issue. It has always been like that so I'm guessing it's the car design and not a defect, but fyi while I'm reporting issues.
