Honda civic years 06 to 09, engine block leaks no owner has been notified nor have the dealerships participated in notifying that person after purchase. apparently hannah is aware of this. and has not contacted owners
The a/c relay switch has been replaced several times and now i'm having to replace the actual ac switch on the compressor due to it bogging my engine down every time i turn it on and it still won't blow cold air. this has been a continued issue and i've seen a lot of post online about it. so why hasn't it been recalled or something done about it.
Takata recall. my honda civic 2009 lx sedan is giving me a very hard time. its air condition turns on but stops working right after 10 mints as the compressor gets hot and it starts blowing hot air. this issue is with almost all vehicles of the same generation and honda is not going to own it and says that the cars are out of warranty now. please look into this matter.
I no longer own this car. i sold it to a junkyard 6 months ago. please stop sending me recall notices.

Tl* the contact owns a 2009 honda civic. while attempting to replace the summer tires with winter tires on the vehicle, the vehicle jack failed. the contact's arm became trapped between the wheel well, the brake rotor, and the wheel itself. the contact's father, who was also in the garage at the time, was able to lift the vehicle enough for him to remove his arm. the contact made a second attempt to jack up the vehicle, but the failure recurred. the contact stated that the vehicle sustained damages to the front end, the suspension, and the brake rotors. aaa was contacted and was able to safely lift the vehicle and replace the wheels. the contact sustained injuries to both arms that required medical attention. the results from the x-ray were not yet available. peters honda of nashua (300 amherst st, nashua, nh 03063, (603) 718-3781) was contacted. the contact was informed not to attempt to use the supplied jack while attempting to replace tires on the vehicle. the vehicle jack was original mechanical equipment. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 146,000.
While driving at a normal highway speed, with all windows rolled up, a/c on, the rear passenger side window exploded. this was on a well paved, straight piece of highway. there were no other cars around, driver was in the far-right lane, and there was no evidence of foul play, cracks, chips or breakage in the window prior to this happening. glass blew all over the back seat and there are just a few pieces of glass still hanging where the window once was. this was a frightening experience and had this been a front window, it could have been extremely serious. cause is unknown.
I own a 2009 4 door honda civic. i bought it in december 2009. among some other problems, including the airbags, in 2012 the driver side sun visor developed a crack and then felt apart. i took it to honda dealer and they replaced it free of charge, but now the same replacement have developed the same identical crack and the metal parts are coming apart in the back of the visor. i called honda and they said that it is now my responsibility and have to replace it at my own expense. this does not seem fair to me because the problem is in the manufacturing of the visor and if i have to spend almost $200 to replace it, there is no guarantee that the same issue does not come up again, because honda has failed to address the real issue of the workmanship of their visors. my car?s vin number is [xxx] sincerely yours, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
Broken sun visor. goudy replaced passenger visor two three years ago but did not replace driver visor.
Takata recalli bought the car from the original owner around the end of summer 2016 the car is in good condition but has approx. 210,000 miles on it. i used the passenger visor 4/17/17 and now it wont stay up and i see its split. i went online to see how to fix it and i came across the class action suit in regards to the visor. i emailed honda who called and told me the car is over the mileage and it will cost me approx. $180 to fix. its really annoying and hampers the view with it laying down like that. i feel they should still fix the problem for free.
The clear coat has been flaking off of the roof of my car for approx 1 year. i have contacted honda several times to get this resolved but i have been in successful. at first they said it was normal wear and tear. now my car is no longer eligible for the manufacturer repair of the clear coat.
Tpms indicator is always on. have taken to dealer to get service but they have said it's an electrical glitch cannot be fixed. this presents a safety issue if a real problem occurs not knowing when tires need adjustment.
While traveling down surface streets, i hit a bump and my already sagging flip visor dropped down and almost completely obstructed my view of the road. by the time i was able to grab and flip it back up, the cars in front of me had slowed significantly. i realize there has been a class action lawsuit for this known issue, however my vin is ~800 above the highest vin included. honda is refusing to do anything to rectify this because the class action lawsuit was vin-specific. i wouldn't ordinarily bother with this but this is a known issue
The clear coat has worn away on the roof and will need to be repainted.
Defective sun visor recall this complaint involves the recall of the driver's side sun visor in 2009 and good for 7 years from that date. i had one visor, split apart at the top seam, replaced. the second visor not only split at the seam but came loose at the hinge and flew past my face while i was driving in april 2016. i had an appointment within the 7-year period but because i misread the warranty i kept putting off the replacement until after it expired. however, when i took my car to culver city honda, service manager rue ayala told me honda selected a 7-year window in order to replace the defective visors with defective visors to get rid of them. he said customers had come in as many as "three, four and five times for replacement visors." he offered me a discount, which i refused. why should my recalled part be as defective as the first one? the car should have come with a new and working part: that's what i paid for. my fear is the latest recall, the passenger side air bag, might also be replaced with a defective air bag. sun visors are also matters of safety. they should not fly off the hinge past your face while you're driving. fortunately, it did not strike my face. i have complained to acura honda, whose employees have given me the runaround since i began calling six weeks ago. i have been passed from case manager to case manager. i have asked to speak to a supervisor but have been refused. i have asked for the names of national and regional directors who oversee recalls, but have been told they are not allowed to give out that information. so much for good faith to a customer who has purchased two hondas. honda, in my opinion, has acted fraudulently regarding their bait-and-switch sun visor recall. i believe i deserve a new, non-defective sun visor at no cost to me. please help.

Sun visors have both separated
Splash guard is disintergrating. also paint (top coat) on roof and top of trunk is badly deteriorated. these defects noted over time.
Clear coat on paint failed after 3 years. sun visors failed after 4 years and 35k miles. motor mounts failed at 5 years and 42k miles.
The driver side sun visor split and now hangs down obstructing my view. this is a know issue with 2009 and earlier civics; however, my vin is not included in the extended warranty as a result of the class action suit.
The horn stopped working a year or so ago. we replaced it and the replacement has stopped working.
The paint on the car is fading away and i have no clue why. i wanted to know if it would be free to repaint the car.
Paint and clear coat in areas from front to rear, on hood, trunk and on roof, is thin, peeling, spotty, or down to the metal. took to the dealer and got no satisfaction. said that even though many others have same problems it is not a covered issue. how is that possible when i have read so many of the same complaints! need it repainted.
While driving the passenger side sun suddenly flipped/fell down and was just swinging. it seems that the inside of the visor somehow melted/cracked, and the visor became disconnected and loose while driving. i am thankful it was not the driver side visor, as it would have likely hit me in the face/obscured my vision and potentially resulted in an accident. there have been several recalls for honda sun visors; however when i took my car into the honda dealership where i purchased the car brand new, they told my my year/model was not a part of the recall.
This is the second time this has happened in this vehicle. the car was put into park and it moved forward and almost stalled. i had step on the brake to keep from moving forward anymore. this sound like the same complaint listed on the most recent recall made by honda on the their accord's and cr-v's.
2009 honda civic 22,472 miles mostly freeway miles. grinding noise from front brakes, took vehicle to dealer, they said i needed new pads and to have the rotors turned. inboard pad (piston side of caliper) was worn to wear indicator, outboard pad still with approx. 90% pad life left although there is a groove in the rotor. told dealer that this was unacceptable wear and he acknowledged it was a common complaint but not covered under warranty. a quick search of complaints on google affirms that this is indeed a common complaint and indicative of a serious design flaw on honda's part. *tr
