MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS MAKING A LOUD NOISE. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SEARS AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE WATER PUMP WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS UNDER A RECALL AND THAT THE DEALER WOULD FIX IT FOR FREE. HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE WATER PUMP WAS NOT COVERED BY A RECALL. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT ONLY CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS WERE EFFECTED BY THE RECALL. HOWEVER, THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG 2006 HONDA CIVICS AND I BELIEVE THIS TO BE THE RESULT OF A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. I FOUND SEVERAL SIMILAR INCIDENTS LISTED AT THE NHTSA WEBSITE WITH SIMILAR DESCRIPTIONS. MY VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS TOLD THAT THE WATER PUMP AND TENSIONER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $380.08. I SPOKE TO THE HONDA DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND ALSO CALLED HONDA MOTOR COMPANY, BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. *TR

THIS MORNING I FOUND A POOL OF COOLANT/ANTI FREEZE UNDERNEATH MY CAR. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT HAD A "CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK". THE SERVICE REP TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE BEEN SEEING MORE AND MORE CASES OF 2006 HONDA CIVICS WITH THESE SAME PROBLEM. I WENT ONLINE AND QUICKLY FOUND 13 CASES OF PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THIS YEAR ALONE. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/CIVIC/2006/ENGINE/CRACKED_ENGINE_BLOCK.SHTML MY CAR IS JUST UNDER THE 60,000 MILE WARRANTY SO I'M COVERED FOR NOW. BUT HOW DO I KNOW IF THE NEW BLOCK THEY ARE PUTTING ON MY CAR WON'T CRACK IN 3 OR 4 YEARS? SO FAR IT SEEMS THAT HONDA IS IGNORING THIS AS A FACTORY DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD BE CALLED ON IT. *TR

THREE TIMES WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR MY AUTO TENSIONER HAS BROKEN DUE TO A POOR DESIGN BY HONDA. THEY ONLY COVER FIXING IT UNDER WARRENTY. WHEN IT HAPPENS I LOSE ALL FUNCTIONING OF MY BELT INCLUDING POWER STEERING, ALTERNATER, AND WATER PUMP. LUCKILY IN EACH INSTANCE I WAS NOT DOING A TURN OR HAD A STEEP TURNING COMMING UP BUT I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO IF THERE WAS ONE AND IT WOULD RESULT IN A CRASH OR THE CAR OVERTURNING POSSIBLY. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND EACH OF THE 3 TIMES IT HAPPENED SUDDENLY WHERE I HEAR A SOUND AND MY BATTERY LIGHT TURNS ON. I TOOK IT TO MIDAS TO REPAIR IT AND IN EACH CASE IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN A WEEK OR LESS. HONDA KNEW ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT DID NOT EVEN WARN ME OR WARN MIDAS ABOUT THE PART NEEDING TO BE REPLACED UNTIL THE 3RD INCIDENT. *TR
