2017 Honda Civic

For several months, I was facing an issue with being able to lock and unlock my car properly. You could hear the mechanisms in the car trying to respond when I would press my key fob or the buttons inside the car but the locks themselves would not move. I would either need to use my physical car key to manually lock or unlock the door. Or if i was in the vehicle, i would manually unlock the driver door and then re-lock it. The problem seemed to start out of nowhere. The dealer confirmed the problem and said it was related to the door lock actuator. In two of the doors, the actuators had failed and in the other two they were on their way to failing. I had all four replaced which was a large and unexpected expense. But the ability to get in and out of the car safely and know that it is safely locked to prevent theft is very important. I did send a letter to Honda corporate about this problem and I felt this was a very strange part to stop working on a car that was brought brand new 6 year sago.

BCM Failed causing an electrical start problem and the car will not completely turn off. With BCM failed doors will not unlock with the remote and the car fails to start or starts and fails to turn off. This is a known problem with these cars that honda will not address and a safety concern for my family as the car has turned itself off while in motion.

I bought my 2017 Civic 2.0L brand new. A few years later my A/C stops working in the middle of summer. Due to the cost of what it was going to cost me to have this fixed I had to delay getting my car fixed and having to drive a car with no A/C with my infant and toddler in the back. Eventually I was able to get this fixed and had to pay over $700. For this being a brand new vehicle when purchased I don't think that an issue like this should have occurred if the vehicle was manufactured properly. Unfortunately, no light came on in the vehicle to tell me that something was wrong or needed fixed.

In 2017 a Honda civic was brought, 2 weeks later AC problems started. Vehicle was returned for repairs requested by a senior dealership personnel. Problems continued with same issue and not fixed. Recent recalls of the AC Compressor and other AC defects of this vehicle has been denied several times (up till now). Honda has repeatedly denied claim to resolve this issue when it has been acknowledged that the original AC systems in most of these vehicles are defective. Vehicle is very hot especially in these very high and hot temperature conditions.

Steering wheel is sticking or failing at highway speeds making steering corrections difficult. Seems more problematic on hotter days also noticed sticking when making turns at speeds greater than 35 mph can be hard to replicate but when it occurs oversteering easily occurs mechanic has no options other than replacing entire power steering system. Is dangerous especially when I over corrected for the sticking causing a sudden lane change

check engine lights display periodically. The main one involves the fuel injectors. It has been an on going problem for 6-8 months. When I contacted the dealership I was told the part is not available Nationwide at this time and not sure when it will become available. While driving the car can go into "limp" mode where it doesn't let you go above 30 MPH. This problem first started approximately October 2022 after having the vehicle just over 7 months. When I contact the Dealership I was told there was nothing they could do but wait for the part to come in. Meanwhile I am paying for a vehicle that is not safe to drive , yet has no recalls on it. I was told by the Dealership that they have several vehicles at the auto auction that have the same issue that are not selling. I don't understand why Honda has not had a recall on this part. I am stuck with a vehicle ,my only means of transportation, still making payments, and it sits in the garage. Please let me know if there's anything else you need from me.

I recently began feeling stickiness in the steering when driving freeway speeds. When trying to make minor lane adjustments, there is resistance in the steering wheel rather than smooth motion. Extra pressure against the stickiness overcomes the issue causing a small unintended over correction. Driving then becomes a constant battle against the stickiness and correcting the over corrections. No Honda Sensing on this vehicle. Occurred while driving over 60 mph in Texas summer heat. Not sure if the issue will get worse but if it does, hard overcorrections at freeway speed can be very dangerous. The same complaint has been made many times on 10th gen civic forums with a dealership doing a complete power steering rack replacement at the customer’s expense Scheduled to take it to Honda tomorrow for replication. There are no warning lights, the vehicle has 85k miles and has only been in one minor crash affecting the left rear quarter panel only.
