2006 Honda Civic

LAST EVENING 5/28/2014 AT 10:10 PM MY WIFE AND I WERE RUNNING AN ERRAND WHEN A DRIVER FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE PULLED BLINDLY ACROSS 2 LANES OF TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF US. DUE TO THE FACT A SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER COMBINATION WAS IN THE LEFT HAND LANE, STOPPED, I WAS UNABLE TO SEE ANY VEHICLE IN THE SUICIDE LANE UNTIL HE WAS IN MY LANE OF TRAVEL. WE WERE DRIVING AT APPROX 35 MPH WHEN THE COLLISION OCCURRED. MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC COUPE HIT A LATE 2000'S JEEP WRANGLER. IMPACT AREA WAS TO THE RIGHT FRONT OF MY VEHICLE AND THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL AREA OF THE OTHER VEHICLE. THE SEAT BELTS WORKED AS DESIGNED, BUT NEITHER AIRBAG WENT OFF. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE CAR AND THE LATERAL ACCELEROMETER ON THE RIGHT FRONT IS HANGING. THIS SYSTEM WAS FULLY OPERATIONAL, AND HAD NO CODES STORED IN THE SDM NOR ANY LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE IMPACT WAS LESS THAN 6 INCHES FROM THE SENSOR. MY QUERY IS TO WHY THE BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. SPEED SHOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT ENOUGH TO CAUSE DEPLOYMENT, AS WELL AS THE AREA OF IMPACT. *TR

I RECENTLY JUST REAR ENDED SOMEONE ON THE FREEWAY WHO CAME TO A VERY SUDDEN STOP IN FRONT OF ME AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP IN TIME. MY CAR HAS $5,500 WORTH DAMAGES ALL IN THE FRONT END (AND IS NO LONGER DRIVABLE) FROM HOW HARD THE IMPACT WAS, FOR THE CAR I HIT HAD A STEEL RAMP ON THE BACK OF IT. MY AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF AND I NOW HAVE A SPRAINED NECK, SHOULDER, AND NERVE DAMAGE SHOOTING DOWN MY LEFT ARM. MY SEATBELT DOES NOT RETRACT ANYMORE IT MUST HAVE LOCKED AND EVERY SINGLE PERSON EVEN MY DAMAGE ADJUSTER DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHY MY AIRBAG DIDN'T GO OFF, FOR IT SHOULD HAVE! *TR

AS THE OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE, I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY TYPE OF NOTIFICATION THAT THIS PROBLEM EXISTED UNTIL I STARTED A WEB SEARCH FOR INFORMATION ON WHY THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED TO THE HONDA CIVIC. WE FORMERLY OWNED A HONDA ACCORD AND NEVER HAD ANY SERVICE PROBLEMS (OTHER THAN REGULAR MAINTENANCE CONCERNS). I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN THE FACT THAT THIS IS TAKING UP TIME TO CONDUCT DISCOVERY OF FACTS, REPAIRING SOME OF THE PROBLEMS AND THEN BUYING NEW TIRES. THE TIRE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER UNEVEN WEAR!!! *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR BROKE AND FELL OFF IN AUGUST 2011 ON MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC. PRIOR TO AUGUST 2011, WHEN MOVING IT BACK INTO THE NONUSE POSITION IT WOULD STICK AND HANG IN THE WAY CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS. THEN EVENTUALLY BROKE ALL THE WAY AND JUST FELL OFF. THIS WAS NOT DUE TO MISUSE OR OVERUSE!!!! THIS IS A FAULTY PRODUCT!!! I AM APPALLED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A CORRECTIVE PRODUCT DESIGNED AND REPLACED THROUGH A RECALL SCENARIO!!!! IT IS OBVIOUS THERE IS A DEFECT IN THIS PART!!!! IF YOU WILL SEARCH THE INTERNET AND EVEN THIS SITE, YOU WILL SEE THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS WARRANTS A RECALL! THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS YOU CANNOT SEE WHEN THE SUN IS AT A CERTAIN LEVEL IN THE SKY WITHOUT THE VISOR, AND YOU CANNOT SEE WITH A FAULTY VISOR THAT HANGS IN YOUR FIELD OF VISION WHEN IN A "BROKEN BUT HASN'T FALLEN OFF YET" SCENARIO. HONDA - YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS!!!!!! PLEASE RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM FOR THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY DAUGHTER!!!! I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL CARS IN MY LIFE AND HAVE NEVER, NEVER, NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH A SUNVISOR. *TR

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

I ON A 2006 HONDA CIVIC EX. YESTERDAY I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AND APPLIED THE BRAKES AND AS I DID SO THE CAR STOPPED AND THEN THE ENGINE BEGAN TO RACE AND ROAR. I APPLIED THE BRAKES HARDER AS THE CAR BEGAN TO TRY TO JUMP FORWARD INTO THE INTERSECTION THE ENGINE RACED EVEN MORE AND THE BRAKES WERE NOT HOLDING THE CAR BACK SO I QUICKLY PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. I WAITED ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND THEN STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND KEPT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. THE CARE ENGINE WAS NORMAL THIS TIME AND THE ENGINE DID NOT RACE SO I DROVE HOME. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK MY CAR TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BUT WHEN THEY DID A VISUAL CHECK OF THE GAS PEDAL, THEY FOUND THAT THE GAS PEDAL HAD COME LOOSE FROM THE FLOOR MOUNTING. THEY TIGHTEN THIS PART AND CHARGED ME FOR LABOR AND THE TIME ON THE COMPUTER (WHICH CAME TO $104.). THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART FOR SOME OF THE 2006 HONDA CIVICS, BUT THAT MINE WAS NOT THE RIGHT VIN NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL. WHEN I LOOK ON YOU WEBSITE IT TYPE IN MY VIN NUMBER AND MAKE AND MODEL, IT SAYS IT IS ON RECALL AND THAT THEY HAVE A MODIFICATION KIT FOR THE GAS PEDAL THAT THEY SEND TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE CAR FOR FREE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE ORDER THE REPAIR KIT FOR MY GAS PEDAL AND TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD SERVICE MY CAR FOR FREE. MY LIFE OR SOMEONE ELSE'S COULD HAVE BEEN AT RISK WITH THIS INCIDENT AND POSSIBLY WITHOUT THIS MODIFICATION KIT, IT CAN HAPPEN AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO GET MY CAR INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL AND FREE INSTALLATION OF THE MODIFICATION KIT AS IT SHOULD NOT BE EXCLUDED SINCE I OBVIOUSLY SUFFER THE SAME RISK AS THOSE OTHER 2006 HONDA CIVICS WITH THE APPROVED VIN NUMBERS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE A REFUND ON THE $104. *TR
