2016 Honda Civic

MY VEHICLE, HONDA CIVIC 2016, WAS PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT. IN THE MORNING WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE, IT GAVE ME ERRORS IN ALL SYSTEMS: BRAKE SYSTEM ERROR, POWER STEERING ERROR, TIRE PRESSURE ERROR, ETC. I COULD SHIFT THE GEAR, BUT STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. I TOWED A CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME AN ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR IS 3.5 YEARS OLD, 36000 MILES, THE WARRANTY ENDED ONLY 6 MONTH AGO. HONDA PROVIDED AN ESTIMATE OF $1500 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IN A FEW DAYS WHEN I WAS SUPPOSE TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE, HONDA CALLED ME SAYING THAT THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND NOW THEY NEED TO REPLACE A POWER STEERING RACK AND POWER STEERING MOTOR AND IT WOULD COST $3000. THE CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE, IT'S A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULDN'T HAPPEN AFTER ONLY 36000 MILES.

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN I-20, THE ONLY CAR CLOSE TO ME WAS BEHIND ME AND IN THE OTHER LANE. THERE WERE NO OVERPASSES OR POTHOLES. THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE LIKE A CAR BACKFIRE OR GUNSHOT, AND I THOUGHT I MUST HAVE BLOWN A TIRE. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND DISCOVERED MY MOONROOF HAD SHATTERED - LUCKILY THE SHIELD HAD BEEN CLOSED. HONDA REFUSED TO CONSIDER THAT IT MIGHT BE A DEFECT AND SAID THAT EVEN IF IT WAS, IT DIDN'T MATTER AS MY CAR WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY. I ASKED TO SPEAK TO A MANAGER SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS REFUSED.

MY 2016 HONDA CIVIC ONLY HAS LESS THAN 25000 MILES, THE AC HAD NOT WORKING SINCE THIS SUMMER, AFTER I TOOK THE CAR TO SCHAUMBURG HONDA IN ILLIONIS, THEY SAID THE CONDENSER IS FIND BUT COMPRESSOR HAS A LEAK WHICH WILL COST OVER $1000 TO BE FIXED. I DECIDED NOT REPAIR BUT STILL WAS CHARGED $140 FOR THE INSPECTION. TOTALLY NOT ACCEPTABLE!

I HAVE A 2016 HONDA CIVIC. AFTER 20 MINUTES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE STEERING WHEEL STIFFENS UP A LOT AND THE CAR STARTS DRIFTING LEFT OR RIGHT. THEREFORE, I HAVE TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION IT IS DRIFTING IN. THIS OCCURS EVERY COUPLE MINUTES. I HAVE TO ESSENTIALLY DRIVE IN A ZIG ZAG FORMATION TO STAY IN THE SAME LANE. AFTER GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND ONTO LOCAL ROADS, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS ON LOCAL ROADS BUT IS LESS FREQUENT THAN ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVING THIS MUCH DIFFICULTLY STEERING THE CAR IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND CAN LEAD TO CAR ACCIDENTS. AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY DETERMINED THAT THE STEERING RACK HAD TO BE REPLACED. SINCE THE WARRANTY PERIOD FOR THE CAR HAS ALREADY PASSED, THEY QUOTED ME OVER $3,000. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL BY HONDA ON THE 2017 AND 2018 CIVICS FOR THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS). BUT, THE EPS IN THE 2016 MODEL GETS OVERLOOKED. 2016 CIVIC DRIVERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SHELL OUT SO MUCH MONEY TO GET A CAR WITH A PROPERLY FUNCTION EPS.

I PURCHASED A 2016 HONDA CIVIC FOR MY SON IN 2016. I RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT AC PROBLEMS THIS YEAR. I CONTACTED MY SON AND ASKED HIM IF HE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE A/C. HE REPORTED THAT IT DOESN'T BLOW VERY MUCH AIR AND THE AIR NEVER GETS COLD. SO I HAD HIM TAKE TO DEALERSHIP. HE WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL FOR A/C AFFECTED ONLY ONE PART OF THE UNIT WHICH THEY COULD FIX UNDER NO COST...BUT THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A HUGE HOLE IN THE AIR COMPRESSOR AND THIS WAS NOT COVERED. THEY QUOTED OVER $2,000 TO REPLACE AIR COMPRESSOR. I FOUND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE AND RESEARCHED TO FIND OUT WHAT CAUSES A HOLE IN THE COMPRESSOR THAT MAKES IT BEYOND REPAIR AND THE ONLY INFORMATION I COULD FIND WERE OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 2016 HONDA CIVIC FAULTY AIR COMPRESSORS. AGAIN WHEN I TESTED IT MYSELF, IT WAS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR AND SOMETIMES NOT BLOWING AIR AT ALL. SINCE I PURCHASED VEHICLE, IT SEEMS LIKE SYSTEM WAS NOT FULLY CAPABLE OF DEFROSTING WINDOWS IN FRONT AND BACK AND FIGURED THE DESIGN WAS BAD.
