MY CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK DUE TO A KNOWN MANUFACTURE DEFECT. HONDA EXTENDED WARRANTY OUT TEN YRS FROM ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE BUT DID NOT NOTIFY OWNERS OF POTENTIAL PROBLEMS. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR CAN OVERHEAT AND/OR ENGINE FAILS WITHOUT WARNING AND STEERING LOCKS UP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. HONDA SHOULD BE HELD LIABLE AS THEIR ACTIONS HAVE NOT ONLY BEEN IRRESPONSIBLE BUT FRAUDULENT. THERE SHOULD BE NO TIME LIMIT ON A MANUFACTURE DEFECT PARTICULARLY WHEN OWNERS DID NOT RECEIVE NOTIFICATION.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE HONDA CIVIC ON FRIDAY MORNING 4/16/16 WITH SOME OTHER PEOPLE IN THE CAR WHEN FUMES STARTED COMING OUT OF THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. HE PULLED OVER BECAUSE IT WAS OVERHEATING. TOOK THE CAR TO MIDAS WHICH WAS CLOSED BY AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A CRACK IN THE ENGINE. HE WAS ASKED BY MIDAS $2600 TO GET THE ENGINE REPLACED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I TOLD THEM THAT IF THEY KNEW ABOUT THE ISSUE WHY DIDN'T THEY ISSUE A RECALL. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT UP WITH THE HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE. PEOPLE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT FROM THIS INCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL, PROPELLANT WAFERS DEGRADE OVER TIME. SEE ATTACHED FOR DETAILS. I FIRST RECEIVED THIS SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016. I THEN CONTACTED HONDA. THE PHONE REPRESENTATIVE CONTACTED HERSON'S HONDA LOCATED IN 15525 FREDERICK RD, ROCKVILLE, MD 20855 AND SET UP A PHONE APPOINTMENT. WHEN I SPOKE TO HERSON'S THE POC TOLD ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND DEALERSHIP WILL CONTACT ME ONCE IT ARRIVES. HE ALSO MENTIONED THAT IT COULD TAKE MORE THAN 90 DAYS. AS OF TODAY, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON BUT I DO NOT THINK HONDA IS TAKING THIS SAFETY ISSUE SERIOUSLY.

MY VEHICLE STARTED LEAKING COOLANT DUE TO A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, AND THE LETTER ACKNOWLEDGES THE EXISTENCE OF A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE CAUSING THIS ISSUE. THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE WAS EXTENDED TO TEN YEARS, BUT MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY A LITTLE OVER ELEVEN YEARS SINCE PURCHASE, AND HONDA DECLINED ANY ASSISTANCE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER ACCOUNTS OF THE ENGINE CRACKING IN THIS MANNER RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED. FURTHER, DESPITE BEING APPLICABLE TO ALL 2006-2008 MODELS AND CERTAIN 2009 MODELS, THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT IS ONLY OFFERED AFTER THE CRACK/OVERHEATING EVENT OCCURS, AND OWNERS HAVE NO ABILITY TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE UNDER THIS WARRANTY WITHOUT EXPERIENCING A PRIOR FAILURE. THIS DEFECT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED FOR OWNERS IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON SITUATION BEYOND THE TEN-YEAR WARRANTY EXTENSION.
