2016 Honda Civic

ABS malfunction. The malfunction problem showed up on the dash and the car would not drive properly causing several messages to come on. Once I stopped and turned off the car I started if back up and went a few yard and the car started to malfunction and the message appeared again. I immediately called a foreign car specialist and was told there is a recall. I looked up the recall and it stated the same exact issue for Honda Civics years 2016-2022. I have had the car towed to two auto shops and both stated that there is a recall for the problem I am having and that they are seeing more of this issue on the Civics. I am a dialysis patient and need reliable transportation. I have about 8 months left to pay the car note in full and would really appreciate it if this could be addressed. Sincerely I am, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA ABOUT THE ( EPB) PROBLEM. THEY REFUSES TO AKNOWEDGE THE ISSUE BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT SHOW UP. THE PROBLEM IS THERE AND I HAD IT COMFRIM BY A MECHANIC. THERE WAS NO WARNING BEFORE HAND TILL ONE DAY WHEN DAY WHEN ENGAGING THE PARKING BRAKE THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT ENGAGED. THE ONLY WAY WAS TO CUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT AGAIN. I AM UNABLE TO PARK ON A HILL BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM AND AFRAID OF THE SYSTEM FAILING ALL TOGETHER.

I'm the original and only owner of the vehicle, which has less than 36,000 miles. My Civic has only ever been serviced by Honda dealerships, and I can provide maintenance records upon request. A failure of this nature to the braking system can only be caused by a defective part. In fact, I had my brakes inspected by Honda at 33,000 miles, and Honda gave my brakes a clean bill of health. While driving my vehicle, the brake pedal suddenly was unable to be depressed except with extreme foot pressure; it felt like a brick had been placed under my brake pedal. The stopping power was substantially diminished. It took multiple, very strong brake pumps to slow and stop my vehicle, meaning I was unable to stop in the event of an emergency. I took the car immediately to a Honda dealership. Ultimately, Honda replaced by brake booster, which they noted was defective, but charged me for the repair because the time (but not mileage) had elapsed on my warranty.

2016 HONDA CIVIC EX-T AFTER GETTING BRAKES AND ROTORS REPLACED THE 'BRAKE SYSTEM' LIGHT STAYS ON WITH ALERTS FOR: ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, & BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM. HOWEVER, THE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ENGAGES AND HOLDS AND DISENGAGES WHEN I FLIP THE SWITCH FINE, THE CAR DRIVES AND BRAKES FINE, THE ONLY THING THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK IS THE BRAKE HOLD BUTTON. CAR DRIVES FINE AND BRAKES WORK FINE, ALERTS WON'T GO AWAY AND ARE ONLY ON THE DASH NOT IN THE NOTIFICATIONS IN THE CENTER CONSOLE.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL ISSUES SINCE ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE WITH BRAKE LIGHT BULBS REPEATEDLY BURNING OUT ALONG WITH EVERY SYSTEM ICON ON THE DASH FLASHING OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT WILL NOT START ALWAYS AND AT TIMES IT WILL NOT OPEN WITH THE KEY OR THE REMOTE FOB ALL BEING TAKEN IN TO SHOPS FOR REPAIRS AND WITHIN WEEKS I CAN BE BACK TO THE SHOP WITH YET ANOTHER SO CALLED FIX THIS RECURRING PROBLEM IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE

WHILE DOING NORMAL CITY DRIVING IN EARLY MORNING, I DROVE OVER METAL PLATES ON THE STREET WHICH HAD OCCASIONALLY IN THE PAST CAUSED MY AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM (CMBS) TO WARN ME TO BRAKE AS IF IT SENSED A HAZARD, BUT NEVER APPLIED THE BRAKES FOR ME. TODAY WHEN GOING OVER THESE PLATES, THE CMBS APPLIED FULL BRAKES TO THE CAR WITHOUT MY TOUCHING THE BRAKE PEDAL MYSELF, BRINGING MY CAR TO AN ABRUPT STOP. THE CAR BEHIND ME UNDERSTANDABLY REAR-ENDED ME. LUCKILY JUST VERY MINOR DAMAGE SINCE THE CAR BEHIND ME MOSTLY STOPPED, BUT THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. WILL TAKE TO DEALERSHIP IN A COUPLE DAYS FOR INSPECTION. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THIS SYSTEM COULD NOT BE DISABLED, BUT AFTER LOOKING ONLINE I FOUND IT COULD BE, SO I DISABLED IT TODAY. WILL LIKELY NOT USE IT IN THE FUTURE AS I SEE THE HARM FROM IT TO GREATLY OUTWEIGH THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS. HERE ARE THE WEATHER CONDITIONS AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT: IT WAS ABOUT 6:00 AM, BEFORE SUNRISE. THERE WAS SLIGHT SLEET/SNOW, BUT IT WAS VERY MINIMAL. ROAD CONDITIONS WERE NORMAL ASIDE FROM THE METAL PLATES FROM CONSTRUCTION ON THE STREET.
