Honda Reviews

I have a new 2012 Honda Jazz Hybrid in my ownership. Overall, I am very satisfied with the car. But after the maintenance at 15,000 kilometers, the oil in the engine was replaced in one authorized Honda Israel service. After oil replacement, I just haven’t recognized my car responses. Also, the fuel consumption has increased a bit. In the service manual, it is suggested to use Honda Green Oil for all hybrid cars. The C/N is 0282P99S4LHE. Instead of this oil, they put inside C/N 0282P99G4LHE and they claimed that Honda approved this replacement. That’s the same answer I got from a local customer service agent. My request to put Green Oil wasn't successful. They told me that there is no Green Oil in stock and I have to order it 4 weeks before the next service on 30,000 kilometers. My question is what I am supposed to do in this situation? Thanks in advance.

I was very frustrated. My new Honda City 1.5 S (purchased on 23.05.2011) was sent for a fourth preventive maintenance on 27.03.2012 on a check-all indicator, check aircon malfunction and check alarm triggered when the car locked at the dealer (Kah Motor’s job sheet **). After 6 weeks, I received a call on 08.05.2012 from my dealer that Honda reported there were four burnt spare parts (electrical boards) and were not under warranty claim! Then, I requested for an explanation on this warranty exclusion, but I still don’t have a reply till now! I need this matter to be investigated immediately.

My son was in an accident on 1/16/12, got hurt, went to the hospital. He has a 2003 Honda Polet and hit the car in front. A lot of damage was done to the car and it was a 3-car pile up. He was hurt - all of his mouth and head. I want to know why the air bag didn't go off. He was driving at the speed limit of 40 and sneezed for a split second, and found himself behind the car in front. Please let me know why the air bags didn't go off.

Trash truck crossed center line and hit driver side door while traveling at 60 mph. Car spun around in front of the trash truck and was broadsided by the truck on the driver's side. Car continued to spin and rear-ended into guard rail dividing highway. Truck then ran over the left front corner of car. Car suffered $15,000 in damages and two sections of frame replaced. Wife was injured with whiplash in back and neck, aneurism on aorta, and seat belt pancreatitis and chest and neck seat belt burns. I was not injured. No air bags deployed in the vehicle. My insurance fixed the car instead of totaling it. The car suffered $10,000 in diminished value. I can't find a lawyer in WV to help me, can't find a lawyer to file suit against Honda for failure of air bags resulting in injury. Car was a 2010 Honda Civic Hybrid and was purchased on 1-9-11 and accident was on 3-24-11.

I live in Baraut, U.P. and I purchased a Honda Activa from Subhan Sai Honda Najafgarh in Nov. 2011 (no-**). After 10 days, there was a problem with that engine and I informed our nearest dealer in Baraut but there was no action taken by that dealer. After that, I informed Mayapuri Honda dealer (because my local address is near, by Mayapuri). But after 15 days, that dealer had taken action and he changed some parts of the engine and I paid 3000 Rs for that. Now, again, I am facing the same problem and my Activa is at my home (Baraut). The local dealer is saying, "I will not do anything; you will have to take it to the same agency where you purchased from." This is very difficult for me because I am working in Gurgaon. How can I take it to Najafgarh from Baraut? My concern is that if there is any problem, then the local dealer should take the responsibility as he is a family of Honda.

Please note that I have a severe problem with my car, although I requested many times to check the sound that I've always heard from the first day I've purchased my car. And during my last service, I asked formally to check for this sound which has always repeated and asked them to mention it in the car job, and finally, they told me it is a small spare part that needs to be changed and it will cost 7,000 EGP!. How come I have to pay for an item which causes the problem that existed since the first day I purchased my car. Please, I need your support as I already did escalation in Honda Egypt, and no one even tried to call me.

I am a very frustrated owner of Honda Accord 2.0 VTi-L, Full Spec, VTEC with plate no **, registered in Penang, Malaysia. I've been maintaining my vehicle in your service center namely KAH Motor located in Sungai Pinang, Penang, Malaysia. Six months back, I had complained about sounds from the bottom of my car bonnet. The service engineer helped to check, but could not find the root cause of the sound. I'd sent my car for checking for 3 times during the past 6 months, no results.

I am an old customer in Honda Egypt where I've been riding Honda cars for eight years until now. First, I had Honda City 2004. The window sensors did not work, then the car keys did not work. They fixed these problems at the customer service center and said that this is a rare case and won't happen again but even then I sold the car. Later, I bought Civic 2007 when it was first launched in Egypt. The car mileage is 56000 km. From day one, I had the same problems with the keys that is not fixed until now. Then suddenly, the motor base needed to be changed where the car mileage was 32000 km and they said at the customer service that this was a manufacturing problem in this car.

My husband purchased a Honda CBR250R motorcycle on 4/4/2012 and faulty on 8/4/2012 while he went Taiping trip with his group of biker friends. The motorbikes certainly can't start after stop to have a drink in Taiping town. So far, we have been changing so many new bikes but this is the first time this kind of problem arose, which feels uneasy and yet needs to arrange towing service from Taiping back to Ipoh. In my mind, Honda should bear all the cost incurred including the towing service which make us feel unsatisfied of the product. I have been sending two complaints to Ban Hoe Seng webpage, but no reply from them. I feel disappointed and lack confidence to spread around confidently of Honda product. All my friends ask us about the incident.

I had purchased a CB Unicorn Bike No. DL9SAJ3056 on 31/Oct/2011. I have faced a major problem about picking it up from the first day. I told the service center manager about my problem. He serviced my bike many times, yet there is no result. The engineer has also come for my bike, but there is also no result. Now I am dissatisfied with the bike. Lastly, I decided to file a complaint in the official site of Honda. I want to replace my engine as soon as possible, please try to solve my problem.

My Honda City car developed problem in the driver side door handle lock. The car was sent for servicing and the repair of the door lock at the Joshi's Harmony Honda, Chandigarh. I was told that the problem has been solved but the problem reappeared again after few hours. Next day, I contacted the service center but the adviser was not ready to accept the fact and I am still facing the problem.

I have a 2004 Honda Accord that I bought brand-new. I have always had all routine maintenance completed at a Honda dealership. I had the timing belt replaced ($1,000) within the 7-year time period, hoping to avoid any serious damage if it ever broke. Right after that, I had to replace the power steering pump ($500), because it went bad at 70,000 miles.

Small ding in the driver side door, when hitting a concrete barrier, caused airbag to deploy and now is having severe roaring in my ear. This was 2 days ago. The airbag deployment caused more damage to me and the vehicle, so I think that we are over protected! Too much government intervention, I am 70 and my hearing was excellent before this, as my doctor said, I could hear a pin drop.

Since my car was new. At 300 miles, I discovered all the fluids were below the recommended marks. The car was never PDI'd and Honda acknowledged this. At 600 miles, the power steering and engine have been vibrating/making noise. Honda inspected my car several times and it was not until the car was over 2000 miles that they decided to replace the power steering pump. The vibration, they said it was all fixed and done. Honda was supposed to re-inspect the car in early February 2012. I am still waiting for a call from Chris, my case manager.

Since the day I bought my Honda Twister in December, here are the regular issues I have faced. The loan that was quoted to me by the Honda representative was 33,500, but later the loan sanctioned was 38,000. In my first service they tried to charge me, then I just paid for oiling. Then in the second service, they charged for wheel cart and didn't even repair it, and in the third service they again made a bill of 1,000. I just feel they fool the customers and I am highly annoyed from day one. Please take some quick action.

I purchased the Dio scooter. On the first day, the problem started in that the bike stopped after a 2-km run. After two days, I got it back. But after 10 days, the problem occurred again. After 10 days, I got back my bike from the service center. But after 12 days, the problem again came. Then again after 10 days, I got it back. Now, the same problem occurred. I am very upset that there is no solution from the company's side; they neither change the bike nor solve the problem. It's very bad service from Honda Motors.

I purchased my first car, a Honda Civic Ex 2009, back in May 2009. I loved this car, until it started giving me troubles. Before the 60K, they have already replaced the motor brackets, the battery, and the TPMS sensors (4 times). Yes, the TPMS sensors have been replaced 4 times in the last 3 months. Last month, I had a flat tire; and no light came on. I stopped due to a strange noise and realized that I had a flat.

We brought our leased 2010 Honda Accord EX-L in for a routine oil change and were told that the rear brakes needed replacing. We only have 29,500 miles on the car and were told that we would have to pay for the brake job. This is the 5th Honda Accord we have leased and we never had a problem like this. Our lease is up in November of this year and we are having second thoughts about another Honda lease. Being a front wheel drive vehicle, why are the rear brakes worn and not the front brakes?

I have a 2006 Honda City with 63,000 kilometers. I had a big accident at the 6th of March, but my airbags didn't open. I rescued my life very hard. I always trust your cars' safety, but I was shocked when the airbags would not open. You are always preparing your cars' advertising that everything is excellent in your cars and saying that take our cars because we are care about your life, but I don't believe you. I want to share this event with you. Human life is not an issue to be discussed with anyone. I will always say my friends, family and co-workers against buying Honda.

Problems with my Honda 2007 V6 just after about 33,000 miles - I am being asked to carry the following: Brake Fluid, Power Steering Fluid, Oil Drain Plug, Front lower control arms bushing, 4 wheel alignment and induction service. All this will cost $1,255. Only yesterday, I paid $733.99 for my service and brake pads, etc.

I got Honda Jazz on April last year. I had trouble within two months, no rear brakes. The dealership kept lying and saying nothing was wrong. Four times I went back with no help. Every time I put the handbrake on incline, nothing happens. I told them about this. I took the car to another garage for MOT, it failed on rear brakes. I went to the dealer and showed them the report. They refused to do anything. I paid for repairs myself, returned to the dealer with the bill and asked to see the owner. The staff member refused to get him and was rather intimidating and aggressive. The repairs showed the rear calipers were not working, only one pad was contacting with the disc, so I was driving a dangerous car. I would like something done before I take matters further. I think it is disgusting the way I have been treated. Trading standards said I would have had case if I had gone to them sooner.

My previous Honda 2001 went through to 107,000 miles with only a loose transmission fluid hose. Amazing! This is not the case with my 2007 EX-L V6. The car was in four (4) repairs while on warranty! It had bad leather finish sticking out, rattle in rear door due to bad hinge, bad front brakes pulsating, complete failure of the whole AC system (the car was in repair almost two weeks for that one alone). Disgusting quality!

My CD player in my 2007 Honda Accord, which I use sparingly as I have 2 other vehicles and 2 Honda motorcycles, started giving an error message. Then, my CD player would not work properly. I can no longer eject the three CDs that are in the player. I learned that the 2003-2004 Accords had a service bulletin (04-027 dated 07/09/04) concerning the CD player which the same unit was used in the 2007 Accord. The Honda dealer here in Greenville, NC recommended that I take it to a local (tech) shop and have them do the service. The Honda dealership here in Greenville, NC would charge me $92.00 just to take the CD player out and ship it off to wherever they send it to for service. Then, I would have to pay to have it serviced and again to have it re-installed. I have learned (online) that there is a significant problem with this 6-CD Changer in 2007 Accords.

2000 Honda Accord EX-V6 4spd Automatic - I began having issues with my transmission about a month ago. It started with slippage then hard shifting into reverse, and now, it hardly shifts from 1st into 2nd. It holds 1st way too long then shifts out of 1st, slips, and then slams into 2nd, causing the shift indicator light to blink and a "check engine" light code. The car was purchased new and currently has 130,000 miles. From what I've read on the internet, it is a common recurring problem that Honda is aware of. I feel there needs to be an extended recall to 150,000 miles.

My name is Latifah, 55, mother of four, from Malaysia. I am a Honda Civic Hybrid owner. I would assume that with all the recent hype behind the Class Action lawsuit against Honda in the U.S. on grounds of cheating mileage claim and also Heather ** vs. American Honda, Inc. case at California Small Claims Court, you would have probably guessed where my story is heading.

Certified used warranty is a scam. Honda sold me a certified used vehicle under their program that guarantees a 151-point inspection. Right out of the dealership, the car had a burnt accessory fuse, missing tire change tools, and garbage in the spare tire well under the trunk. This leads me to believe they did not check all the fuses and they did not check to see if a spare tire was even included with the vehicle, let alone properly inflated. They did not offer compensation for failing to check these points in their original inspection and they did not agree to perform another 151-point inspection at my request. It is now 14 months after I purchased the vehicle and only about 8,000-9,000 miles on the car from since we bought it.

I was involved in an automobile accident in a 2004 Honda CRV recently and have a couple of questions. My vehicle was setting at a complete stop and was struck in the rear at approximately 55mph. Both myself and my passenger were injured. Neither of the front seat belts engaged to restrain us and even after hitting the vehicle in front of us, no airbags deployed. I am being told that in a high speed rear end collision, the seat belts and airbags are designed not to work? Is this something that your office can validate for me? Thank you for your time.

I think it's a crying shame and disgrace to have someone take the survey and be told at the end that it's not needed and that you have enough responses already. How in the world can that be when your email to me requesting the survey is less than 12 hours old? This is bad business and I will not hesitate in letting any and everyone know of the bad business you have passed my way. The time I wasted in completing your survey could have been better devoted to something much more productive.

Purchased a 2012 Honda Civic Sedan on Feb. 9th, 2012. Drove it for 2 days and my lower back started to hurt like crazy. I mean I could barely get off of my couch without being in excruciating pain! Called the dealer and he recommending by a lumbar support at Walgreens. Wow! Great fix! Apparently, they have a bad design and they tell you to buy a lumbar support. I looked on a Honda forum and there were several complaints about the civic seats. Spoke with the General Manager and the dealership is suppose to call me on Monday! Will see what they say! 28-32 MPG in town doesn't do anyone any good if you can't drive the car because the seats are so uncomfortable you can't bare the excruciating lower back pain!

My company purchased a Honda Accord Automatic [P 262, Engine No. K24Z 20001515; Chassis No. G8N000825] on 28-July-2008 from the Dealer in Bardoli, Gujarat, for my use. Ever since then, the car engine cannot be started if by chance the driver runs cabin fan (i.e., fan without AC) for more than 10 to 15 minutes.

My mechanic noted that there was something wrong with my CVT automatic transmission around 35K miles and recommended I take it into the dealer asap, which I did. After a number of visits and a lot of runaround, they rebuilt the transmission. At around 75K, it started showing signs of failure again, and unfortunately, this time I delayed until it had around 95K on it, thinking the extended 100,000 mile warranty on just this problem would cover it. No such luck, since it was 100K or 7 years, and as an early adopter buying the car in the fall of 2002, I was 1 or 2 months beyond the 7 yr limit. The dealer offered me no hope and backed that up by getting me rejection from the regional manager.

2008 Honda Accord LX-P manual transmission: I had problems shifting gears one day, all of a sudden (51,000 miles). I took my Honda to White Allen Honda dealership to find out why. They drove the car also, couldn't figure out why it would shift improperly. To make a long story short, I was told that I have to pay over $1,800 for new clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, flywheel, etc.

1) Visor keeps un-glueing and coming apart. It has been replaced 3 times in less than four years, and Honda can't seem to come up with a replacement part that is durable.

Leather seats worn out. I purchased a new 2008 Accord Exl. Then after 5000 miles the seats started to wear. Brought this up at the Honda dealer and was told it is normal. At 15k miles the driver seat got so bad. I mentioned it to the dealer and I was told there’s nothing they can do. At 40k miles and I am in a process of replacing the driver seat or get rid of car. I need your help on how to deal with this.

Let me start off by saying I absolutely love my car. I was driving down the road and hit a small pothole just like everyone else and all of the airbags deployed for no reason rendering it inoperable. I had to pay to have the car towed and I will have to pay for it to be fixed and I did nothing wrong. This s absolutely absurd.

I had to replace the brakes at 20555 miles, again at 35936 and then again at 53150. Honda accepts no responsibility for this problem. They insult my intelligence by blaming me for the premature wear. I have paid out over $600 on brakes so far. The oil pressure switch went out to at a little over 53000 miles, another $300. Battery also died after 2 years (replaced by warranty). The car has not been very dependable and is expensive to maintain. I want to sue them for the brake problems that they refuse to acknowledge!

This is a 2008 Honda CR-V with current miles of 39,271 which was delivered June 26, 2008 from White Plains Honda Westchester New York.

I leased a car from Acura (Acura TL). However, my experience was not as great. They scratched my car when it was in service, told me I would get a $250 credit if I fix the car but I can't get my money from them. The service manager at Yonge and Steels location is rude and irresponsible. For the end of lease inspection, they charged me for scratches on the rims although the mileage on the car was only 40000 KM, no accidents and in a very good condition.

Honda Civic transmission failed. Well maintained car with 107K mileage on it and its transmission failed yesterday. I thought Honda had the name for being the reliable car and last at least 200K miles. Customer service was not interested in helping me anymore. I see a lot of online discussion about Honda failed transmission issue.

My wife and I, along with grandchildren, were placed in a very life threatening situation on several occasions with vehicle stalling in heavy high speed traffic. The ignition switch failed but turned out to be a very expensive diagnoses and repair which is $2,350.19 to be exact. When I found out there had been a recall, I contacted Honda for reimbursement but to no avail. They mailed me a check for the cost of the switch. No letter of explanation as to why they refused not to pay for the total repair bill. I find this to be very appalling for a company not to respond to a customer's complaint of a "Safety Recall".

This has been my first time dealing with Honda. I leased two cars, Civic and Odyssey. This has been the worst experience in my life. I will never ever recommend buying or leasing or doing any business with Honda. Along the last 6 weeks, I have discouraged at least 15 of my friends from ever thinking in buying or leasing any Honda. Setting my account on line has been a nightmare and trying to make a payment was a nightmare. My temporary license is almost expiring in couple days and dealer is just careless. I made more than 7 visits to the dealer after leasing the two stupid cars to resign papers that were done by mistake. I do hate Honda. I do hate anyone who recommends Honda. I will always mention about my very poor experience and waste of time and discourage everyone I know to do business with Honda. I am seriously considering asking my lawyer to start a lawsuit against Honda for all the hassle and inconvenience I had. I am just waiting to have my temporary registration to expire and will sue you for the hassle and harassment and consequences for not being able to use my cars. Honda just goes to the hill.

I bought a Honda 2006 Civic 2 Dr. coupe - EX on March 1st, 2011, less than a year ago. It has broken down 3 times and all 3 times were the same problem; serpentine belt and belt tensioner. It has cost me money for the repairs as well as the tows. What the hell can I do about this problem? I don't feel safe driving my car anymore. The mileage is only 76,000 and the condition with the exception of the problems described above is excellent.

I purchased a 2012 Accord Crosstour last fall. It is top of the line, two wheel drive. After running 5 full tanks of gasoline, I averaged between 19.375 and 20.375 mpg consistently in that range (half city and half interstate driving). I called Eskridge Honda, where I bought it and told them my problem. I live in Shawnee, OK, about 40 miles East of Eskridge, the Oklahoma City dealer. The person at Eskridge told me to bring it in. I did and when the maintenance manager looked at the mileage, which was then around 340 miles, he said to me, "sorry, Honda will not let me touch this car until it has 10,000 miles on it. I now have over 2,000 miles on the car (02/06/2012). I still get the same mileage per full tank. I think this is one of the best looking cars on the road. It is black outside with black inside trim.

I made an appointment to have an airbag recall inspection done at Brown Honda Service in Toledo, Ohio. I arrived and was then informed that it would take 1 1/2 hours to look at the airbag. It was just an inspection, not a replacement. That is entirely too long for this to take. They should have informed me of the time when I called to make the appointment. I left very unhappy about the lack of customer service. The tech did call to suggest he come and pick up the car, but I was not going to give up my entire Saturday for this.

The passenger side airbag turns off and on with a ding, at random times, while my teenagers have been passengers. The car takes the same route on the way to and from work, with a teenager, and in the morning, the side passenger airbag goes off and on sometimes. One morning it went off and on 31 times, in a 35 minute drive, with the beeping warning. Other mornings, it goes off and on a few times, and some mornings it never goes off. On the way home in the afternoons, it doesn't go off. It was the same drive, with the same people involved. The teenager has only sat in the seat, and has not moved all around in the seat. Also, the car is brand new, and have only had it for less than one month.

I have a 2011 CRV with 24,000 miles in it. (I drive 80 miles a day). In November 2011, I had a software update from a recall, that adjusted the timing. I was getting 32 mpg consistently on the highway, and 28 when I did city driving. After the update, I can't get anything more than 26, city or highway. Honda said to have the dealer check it.

I want to bring into your notice, that the service from the Honda bike showroom near my area is not satisfactory. Since I experienced myself a great discomfort.

Transmission of 2002 Accord fails April 2011 (at 23,000 miles). Cost is $1867 to fix plus towing. Another part of the transmission (TCC Solenoid) fails January 2012 (at 27,252 miles), costing $864 to replace. Responding for the second time to the summer 2011 Honda recall for an airbag repair—response number 1 in September 2011 and response number 2 in December 2011—I was asked to come on a specific day in January 2012 to have it repaired. I went but Superior Honda of N.O. did not have the part.

I have bought a Civic 2007 hybrid in 2009. The car imported from USA by a local dealer. Last year, I noticed IMA amber light. I tried to visit the official agent, who refused to accept it since he is unable to fix "electrical problems " in hybrid cars. I was forced to go to local people who replaced the IMA battery twice till now and I'm still having the problem. I really like Honda cars, but I am fully disappointed. Can I find a solution?

I'm having the same oil consumption problem with the 2008 Honda Accord that many other owners are having. We bought the car at Anderson Ford in Lincoln, Nebraska and before it was time to change the oil the first time, there was no oil on the dipstick when I checked it. My local mechanic checked it out and couldn't find a problem, so I took it in for the software update, but that had already been done. This is the third Honda we've owned and hope we can continue to be a loyal customer, so I would hope to hear some resolution to this problem. I hope it doesn't come down to someone filing a Class Action suit, etc. Thanks.

Windshield was cracked and has chips in it. It was not repaired, dealer said it was repaired. The chips are still there and the headlight on right side out of alignment. Dealer said it was fixed, it wasn't. I had a different tech at the dealer look at the light, and he fixed it with in 5 min. The main issue is the air temperature between the dash vent and floor is greatly different. The dealer said it is normal.

I bought a new 2009 Honda Accord in April 2009. On November 18, 2011, I took my car to Crest Honda in Nashville, TN to look at the leather on the drivers seat for premature wear and verify coverage for repair or replacement under warranty. The car had 35,893 miles on it and I had owned it for ~31months. Crest took a photo of the premature wear and the service rep said he would review my issue with the service provider.

I purchased a new 2009 Honda Accord Coupe, 4 cylinder, and after about 35,000 miles, I started experiencing excessive oil consumption. Oil is being lost at the rate of 1 qt. per 1,000 miles. I do not see any oil on my garage floor, so I can only assume it is burning it slowly. This is my second Accord, by the way, and I drive 25,000 miles per year, so I know darn well what the usage rate is. I went online to see if any other people had experienced this, and was surprised to find out that many other owners are having this problem, all across the US, in fact. The car was under warranty, so I called American Honda, and they told me to take it to a dealer, so that a diagnostic could be run, but they admitted that there was a recall for this problem. They said there was a software update, which should solve the problem.

I'm complaining very much about Honda CB TWISTER bike's gear box since from 10 months. So I'm kindly requesting to please solve out my problem by Honda near by my locality. I'm waiting for your kind response.

On 23 December I was in an accident with my 2011 CRZ, a very luck buck jumped in my line of traffic. I actually have three complaints against Honda.

I was a passenger in my sister’s ‘08 Honda Civic and we were struck in right rear of car by another pickup truck. The side curtain deployed and shattered and done damage to the side of my face, head, right arm, elbow and right eye.

On their "Customer Satisfaction Survey", I have indicated several times that I am dissatisfied with the location of the spare tire on the 2011 Honda Odyssey. Several times, I requested a phone contact from a Honda representative. That never happened. Their letter states Honda wants to ensure delivery "of the highest level of service". The lack of response contradicts this statement.

I purchased a used/leased 2008 Honda Accord EX-L with leather in 7/2011 with < 40,000 miles. Within a few weeks, I noticed discoloration and what appeared to be wear of portions of surface on the driver's seat. Basically, the dealer I bought it from, the dealer I normally work with for service and Honda of America (HoA) customer service, all have repeatedly said "normal wear and tear, -past warranty." They (HoA) offered a $1,000 fix with a discount to $450. Woopie ding! I have been a loyal Honda accord owner for over 20 years based on quality and customer service. What I have experienced recently was not customer service. Sad, very sad. BTW, I have friends who just sold their used Honda Accord with ~210,000 and the leather looked as good as it did when they bought the car!

I wish to state that I bought City but since its purchase, I have complained in your City while transferring gear. There is noise coming out and Honda people don't admit they have problem and have lot of excuses. Even distributor agreed there's a problem. I took the car to Honda South. I am not satisfied. I have tried to email but there's a problem with their email as well.

I have a Honda CBR250R bought before 5 or 6 months and I’m in Chennai, India. Now I’ve done 6000 km in it and the engine noise is too high and before 800 km I finished regular company service, but engine is different and too high. When the sound started changing the pick up of the bike was dramatically decreased and the top speed of the bike would be 135km/hour. This is a shame.

I could not see due to solar glare and accidentally hit a 4-foot steel pole at about 10 miles an hour. I was wearing gloves because it was very cold that morning. My 2003 Honda Odyssey airbag deployed and the chemical from the airbag burned holes through both gloves. I did suffer minor burns but basically the gloves protected me from very serious burns. According to Honda, based on my VIN, I do not have an airbag that necessitated recall. This is my 3rd Honda in the course of 20 years and I am very disappointed. I also feel so fortunate that it was a cold morning when the airbag went off.

Buyers beware of "The Automaster" Shelburne Vermont. They will get every dollar on new vehicles on MSRP and even with trades. They screw you on these too. I wanted to buy 2012 CRV, we were $500 off from a deal and they didn't make the deal!

On a high speed, trying to over-take, the car just slowed down and it just went off. Getting to the road side mechanic for a first aid, it was discovered that the top cylinder is spoiled. It was changed and the car started, but it has refused to go on slow. The car was taking to an auto-tap machine for diagnostic, ten problems were detected and rectified, yet it still persisted with not slowing. Each time it approaches a hold up or bumps, it will go off. I have tried all mechanics but it’s not working out. So what are your suggestions, please? It’s about a week now.

On Jan 2, 2012, I went to Valley Honda in Monroeville to purchase windshield wipers. When I went to pay for the repairs, I discovered that I did not have my wallet. I went out to my car to look for it because I thought maybe I left it inside. After discovering it was not there, I called my brother's office because I had just left his business, to see if I had left it there. He called me back and informed me that it was not there.

My 2001 Honda Accord EX V6 had transmission failure at 147k miles. I had the transmission rebuilt but not by Honda dealership. I serviced this car well and everyone knows there is a defect that will happen again. So I will be getting another car before my warranty from the tranny specialist expires (2 years or 24k). This cost me about $2800 for the rebuild.

2009 Honda Odyssey purchased out right. From the very first day this van pulled slightly to the left and would on regular occasions pop the steering wheel right out of my hands. I took it to the dealer so many times I lost count. I even had it reported to the general manager for doing a service test drive on the van. They’re claiming nothing was wrong. Yet this would happen out of the blue and catch me off guard. I felt very unsafe in this van and they would not trade it or swap it out.

We have purchased a Honda City Zx Exi 2006 model in January but chassis was not available anywhere. Please inform where chassis is. It's not written.

I purchased on 26 09 2011, registration card not yet received mp 09 ck 2291.

I just purchased my Honda Accord from Hillside Honda and I was screwed. They took my deposit money first and start to play with my head about the monthly payment like if I put more money down, my monthly payment will be less. They told me that I will get six years warranty and I don't have to pay anything but they also charged me for that.

My 2003 Black Honda Accord has lost clear coat on hood, roof, trunk and now some of its sides. It looks bad and it's growing even bigger. Is there any recall on honda for this paint error? I read that every one is complaining about the same error on the same area of the honda. I have seen on other honda's with my own eyes with the same error on the same spots with same issue. Wow Honda has this paint job error? Couldn't believe it.

The problem is the blinking of D sign on the meter board of my Honda vehicle. The gear is also not changing smoothly.

In June 2011, I was hit by another car that changed lanes into the right passenger side of my 2006 Honda minivan, pushing me head on into the concrete barrier dividing the oncoming lanes of traffic. My driver's side airbag deployed. The airbag deployment broke my right wrist and severely lacerated my left thumb cutting through an artery. I am on Coumadin, so the bleeding was quite severe.

I purchased a brand new 2010 Honda Accord from Elk Grove Honda last year. Recently I heard a grinding noise just before I started the engine. I took my car to Elk Grove Honda for repair and was told they already knew a lot of Honda Accords have this problem. They will not repair it as this is how the Honda engineers design it and I should turn my ignition key very fast in order to ignore this noise. I did some research and found out this problem is caused by the bad VTC actuator in many of the Honda Accord model. The Elk Grove Honda still refused to repair my defective car even it is still under warranty.

My 2005 Honda City iDSI’s starting time to drive was running good but after the car was moved, the engine only raising in drive slow the running car not to move fast. I can see on the meter board the D sign and the engine sign blinking.

I have a 2010 Honda Accord EX-L 4 Cyl (45,000 miles and bought new) and it burns oil between changes. I have spoken to mechanics, friends and family and everyone is in agreement that cars do not burn oil unless they are old or have a mechanical issue. The first time I brought it to my dealer's attention, the service rep. agreed that was normal. This was in Aug. of this year. They set me up on an oil consumption test. Also, I should mention that when it begins to burn the oil, my oil lamp light indicator flickers and my engine makes a tapping noise when I accelerate every so often.

I have called Honda customer service numerous times with regards to my airbag light permanently remaining on. I have verified with several mechanics, that apparently, this is a faulty seatbelt buckle that needs to be replaced. When I mentioned this to Honda, they advised me that they may be able to assist with "something". They won't mention what that something is, and on the condition that I take my vehicle to a Honda dealership for confirmation.

I have taken a Honda CBF stunner bike. I am facing an engine problem, beating sound, which have engine warranty for 5 years. But I am facing an engine problem and they are telling me to pay RS9000 for the repair. They are telling that they won't give the warranty. Even they are not even caring when we went to the show room near Naredmet, Hyderabad. We are not satisfied with the service which you are providing to the customers. They don't even have the spare parts of the vehicle.

I bought my car a year ago, and I have requested the salesman not to pay for any services and requested him to give me the top-up. Today, when I took my car for new brakes, they told me it's not included in my service plan. I had a very bad experience with the dealership.

There was a problem with the 2008, 2009 Honda Accord rear brakes and consumers were compensated for replacing them. I have a 2010 (which was probably manufactured in 2009) Accord and the same problem has just occurred. I too would like some reimbursement for this Honda problem.

Braking problem... There was a sudden problem in the front braking of CBR250R vehicle number: **** chassis number: **** and Engine number: ****. The mechanics of Todi Honda situated in Kolkata say that the pistons and some other parts of the disc brakes are not working and hence needs to be replaced. There is no availability of spare parts here. My vehicle is under their hands from 16th November 2011 and still there is no solution to it. I am facing a lot of problems without my vehicle. I would kindly request you to solve this problem as soon as possible.

I have a 2001 Honda Accord with 65,000 miles. The first transmission was replaced at 27,500 miles, and was under warranty. Now, my second transmission needs to be replaced at 37,500 miles, and is not covered by the warranty. I have contacted the regional representative, who only saw it was a 2001, and refused to assist in any way. I then contacted their customer service department who filed a claim for me, but a day later called, and gave me the same response. There will be no "goodwill" gesture on the part of Honda.

It started when my check engine light was on while I was driving on the freeway. The car started to jerk once in a while. Luckily I got home safe not to mention my toddler was in the backseat plus I'm pregnant, too. My Honda Accord Coupe V6 is a 2001 model, but it only has 64,000 to it. My transmission needed to be replaced. I had contacted Honda Corporation to see if they can help me out since one of our friend had the same problem with a 1999 model. The case couldn't even hold a chance because the insensitive case worker told me I had no chance with a 10-year old car and the warranty was expired 3 years ago. I never received the warranty letter. Now I have to make a decision to pay the $4900 to install the new transmission or walk away from my car that hasn't been with the 64,000 miles to it.

I have Honda City full options, year 2006, 1.5l VTEC. I have this accident from the front of the car; the car condition is total loss. My complaint is how I have an accident like this and no airbag has opened. I have 2 airbags in the front, and I have been injured. What is the safety in the car?

I have a 03 Element and love the vehicle. I was getting ready to buy a second one until I found out it is $726.00 to replace a starter, a freaking starter. I will not own another one. And I will trade this one for a Toyota by tomorrow. I think it is pretty pathetic that you have to remove a perfectly good manifold to get to the starter, who was the brain child of that design. I thought you built cars to last and to be low maintenance. Well, if one starter cost that much, how is it low maintenance? That’s very, very sad. Honda has lost my business. I have had a CRV, Civic, and Element. Not anymore!

I am really frustrated with the services of Honda Activa.

I’m really disappointed with the service of Honda Activa. I had a lot of expectations but Honda Activa has not fulfilled my needs. I have sent my complaint to the customer care but customer care is not an initiative of the consumer's grievance so I have decided to send my complaints to the National Consumer Helpline, Grievance Redressal, Ministry of Consumers Affairs, CNBC Pehradaar, director of Honda Activa.

This is in response to the gentleman who had to replace the rear brakes on his wife's Accord. There was a class action suit filed in which Honda agreed to pay. I had the same thing happened on my ‘09 model and they reimbursed me for the full amount of the repairs after I submitted the receipts. I believe it was up to $150. The payoff does not come from Honda—it must be done thru the administrator of the suit.

My mom owns a Honda and her car recently had a problem with the transmission (I think). She went to the Honda dealership in Battle Creek, Michigan to get a check up on her car and they declined all services. It seems like a blacklist system, but only for my mom.

My wife took her 2010 Accord in for a recall, a software change. During that visit it was discovered that her rear brake pads were worn down to 3mm. The front pads were fine at 9mm. So at 13,900 miles she had to have the rear pads replaced at a cost of $212.00.

I own a 2011 Honda Accord of which I bought brand new in May of this year. Within three days of buying, I turned on the A/C and it wouldn't work. I took it in and they said that it wasn't plugged in from the factory. The funny thing is that I had the checklist from the factory and the A/C was signed off as working. Hmm! The second incident was when the car had about 3,000 miles and the check engine light came on. I took it in and they said that my O2 sensor was bad and they needed to replace it. Upon switching out the O2 sensor, they realized that the VTEC solenoid had a leak and it was leaking oil over the O2 sensors destroying it. They then replaced them both.

Honda Customer Service is extremely disappointing. Items offered/described on their website imply suitability for all--not true. Example: Website describes 'Backup Sensors' as "Help yourself in or out of a tight spot while helping to protect your paint; Four Sensors emit audible beeps into the cabin while you back up, signaling objects as you approach them. Beeps quicken as your vehicle gets closer to objects. Note: Back-up sensor attachment is required for installation. ** Polished Metal Metallic; MSRP: $265.32. "

Last month, I can't remember the exact date, something has happen to my car. My son, 7 years of age, named, Muhammad Afdhal **, while playing with center rear's seat belt has accidentally squeezed his stomach. My husband had tried to loosen the seat belt but unfortunately it further tightened his stomach. The situation at the time was so tensed because I can see my son facing difficulties in breathing.

My Honda CRV 2005 has a failed ABS (ABS light, warning light and VSA light is on while running). The present mileage is only 48,754km. I am the first owner and I purchased it brand new, well-taken cared. The dealer said, ABS system is only covered for 3 years or 60,000km, which ever comes first. I feel that it is not right. The ABS brake system life depends on usage, not time. The word "which ever comes first" is wrong and against the consumer's benefit.

My 2008 certified used Honda Accord (SDN/4 DR, EX-L) was hit hard from the front left side and none of my airbags deployed. I was at a stand still (at a stop sign), the fast oncoming vehicle crashed into me causing me to skid 10 feet, knocking my front bumper off, shattering my windows and I have been told my front axle is broke. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol recommended I file a complaint since none of my airbags deployed.

I bought a Honda City, which have 4 alloy wheels but I was surprise to see that the 5th wheel, which was kept in the back was an ordinary wheel. I immediately contacted the sales people but they said they can't do anything, as this has been provided by the company. Just imagine, in case of puncture, you will be driving a car with 3 alloy wheels and one ordinary wheel, which will create serious imbalance to the car thus violating/compromising the safety standards of the car. I am sure that Honda does not do this in any developed country like the US, Japan or countries in Europe.

I bought a 2008 Honda Accord in July 2010, and since then, I have been complaining about the rattling noise coming from the rear end, and every time they fix it, the noise keeps coming back. Now, the car has run out of warranty, and when I complained to American Honda, they assigned someone to look into this matter. Her name is Lauren and she is extremely rude and unprofessional. She talked to me as if she was doing a huge favor for me. In spite of me having this issue since it was under warranty, I keep having the same trouble and Lauren was too bad. I wonder how they can hire someone like her.

I am currently driving Honda Jazz model year 2009. Two years ago and on its first year, driving was okay until I found that they seem to be having a transmission problem. I have sent my car and reported the problem that I am facing. Honda Sri Utama advised me to change my engine oil and all four new tire, which doesn't make sense at all.

I had given my Honda City car for service at Peninsular Honda, Calicut, but when I went to collect it, they told me that they have lost my car key. Though they promised to replace the key and lock system, they have not done it so far. It's completely their responsibility, and I didn't expect such service from a Honda showroom. Please do the required procedures.

I bought a 2004 Honda Accord. Within six months, the paint had bubbles on the driver side, then it started chipping from the driver side to the trunk.

I experienced the worst customer skills ever. I thought one of the sales representative was going to hit me. Honestly, how do you have people like that work for you? It doesn't stop here. I want to speak to someone besides writing a review. I asked for clarity about a promo but instead, the cops were almost called. I am disgusted with Honda (2541 E. Tremont Ave.) right now. The worst experience ever!

My fobs will no longer open the passenger and rear doors on the second click. The Fobs continue to open the driver’s side door and lock all doors. Nor will the key open these same doors on the second click. The vehicle is a 2006 Honda Ridgeline. I am retired, and I cannot afford to take the car to the dealer for a fix.

Exploding rear window on 2003 Honda Odyssey. This occurred on Sept. 24, 2011 at approximately 1 p.m. in Calgary, Alberta. It was a beautiful clear day, the temperature at the time was about 20 -23 degrees Celsius. My van was parked on a residential street facing eastbound.

I came for oil change and tire rotation on 9/23. After the services were performed, as soon as I went out, the "check tire" symbol came on my dashboard. This morning, I came to the dealer again and they took the van. After an hour, they said they fixed it. After riding 2-3 miles again, the "check tires" symbol came up. I again drove back to the dealer and they said the tire has to be replaced now. There was absolutely no problem with my van when I came yesterday for oil change and tire rotation. If there was a problem, they should have caught the problem on my 2 visits (within 7 hours). If I have to come 3 times in a span of 18 hours to a Honda dealer, what quality of service the dealer is providing?

PAX Tires and Wheels - It is very inconsiderate of any auto company to equip a vehicle with this type of equipment. The only way to repair a flat is from a Honda dealer. If your loved ones have any tire trouble, where are they going to get help readily? The tires are ridiculously overpriced and do not last very long.

I have a 1999 Honda Accord EX V6 4-door. I had the transmission worked on several times and rebuilt the last time, at a cost of $1,400. It only lasted just over a year and is slipping and changing rough again.

I purchased a brand new Honda CRV from the United States in 2008. Right from the beginning, I thought it was a bit noisy underneath and the problem still persists. The dealer in the U.S is not prepared to help. The dealership in Ghana says I need to change the suspension and shocks and I don't believe that this is the case, especially when the road which I use to drive to work and back is tarred. Please advice on what to do since its still under warranty.

After my accident and insurance inspection, there were four to five damaged parts which were to be replaced (caused due to accident) and was told that within seven to ten working days, I will get the car back. I have been waiting everyday but things seem to proceed further.

I am Raj ** and I am working in a private company. I purchased a new Honda bike to sell our house which is in Delhi. I purchased a Honda Shine from Race Honda Patpargani, New Delhi. Date of sale was August 14,2011. But it is not running straight on the road, there is a problem bubbling in my bike. I checked the bike the next day, August 15, 2011.

Our 2003 Accord (that we service at regular intervals and did everything the Honda dealer recommended) had the camshaft literally start coming apart. The damage to the motor was very costly. Because it was over 100,000 miles, the dealer told us our only recourse was with Honda Motors. I contacted Todd ** and he said it was just a normal wear and tear, and then said he was sorry that he couldn't help us. Normal wear and tear? A camshaft? I guess the words manufacturer's defect isn't in Honda's nomenclature.

The entire air conditioning system on my brand new 2007 Accord had to be replaced. Wolfchase Honda said that the a/c system was overcharged by someone. I have never charged the system and Wolfchase Honda is the only one that has ever serviced the vehicle. Wolfchase Honda and Honda America would not help. I took it to another Honda dealership and the repairs ran nearly $3,000. I have purchased several new Hondas in the past but my last purchase was a Ford. I am through with Honda!

My 2004 Honda CRV-EX air conditioner stopped working suddenly. It worked well one day and blew hot air the next. I went to Go-Honda Dealer in Westminster, Co. They said that I need a whole new air conditioner system, which costs around $3,000.00. The compressor goes out and send metals to the lines and contaminates the whole system. This is a complaint from a lot of Honda CRV owners. Even the dealership said that they see this a lot of times. I also saw numerous complaints on websites.

The rear passenger window does not go up. I understand that this is an ongoing problem and should be covered during a recall. I now have to take my car into Honda, with a minimum $99 fee and no idea what else they will charge to fix the problem.

Recently, I bought (April 2011) a 1997 Honda Passport with a blown head for next to nothing. I purchased the vehicle for my two kids to get back and forth from college. I then dumped a couple grand into fixing it. Then in June, I noticed big chunks of rusted steel on my driveway under where the Passport was parked. I crawled underneath it, only to find that the chassis was so rusted out in places that I could place my whole fist into the holes (especially right under the passenger seat/door). I was also able to grab handfuls of rusted and corroded steel from inside the cavity along the chassis.

I had purchased 2011 Honda Accord EX-L V6 (non-navigation) at Norm Reeves Honda in Cerritos, CA. So far, I had problems ever since the purchase. A tire blew out a week after purchase (paid 200 for tire from dealer, 165 at Costco). A Variable Cylinder Management problem locked up the car this month on August 9th, 2011. And the A/C system leaked and no longer worked on August 27th, 2011. The car has only 27,000 miles on it. And the car is within warranty. A brake pad in the front right caliper was also cracked and replaced by another dealer.

My daughter was involved in an accident on Saturday, August 27th. She's driving a 2003 Honda Accord 4-door. In the morning, she had a flat tire. So, one of the tires is just a spare tire. On her way home from work that day, she took Highway 54. She spun around, hitting the railings. The four tires blew. The passenger side airbag deployed even without a passenger. The driver side airbag did not deploy.

My recent experience with Honda has been beyond disappointing. I have never owned a Honda before, but I had heard good things about their reliability and that Honda was a reputable company that stood behind their product. Sadly, I have found none of this to be true. I will never purchase another Honda, and I have advised my friends and family to avoid making a purchase they will regret. I have also filed a complaint with Consumer Affairs.

I bought a brand new Honda Accord SE in July 2002. At 38000 miles, the transmission leaked fluid. The warranty covers only $36,000. After I talked to the manager of the dealership (transmission should last for only 38,000 miles), I paid 500.00 labor fee to install a re-manufactured transmission. At 71,000, the transmission failed again. I got a free replacement from the dealer. Now at 120,000, the transmission was repaired, but it failed again. One Honda with four transmission! What kind of cars Honda is providing to the consumers? Does Honda know anything about Six Sigma quality standard? By Six Sigma, there are supposedly no more than 4 bad cars for every 1,000,000 cars. I am completely disappointed in the quality of Honda Accord cars.

I bought a new 2009 Honda Accord EX. After a few days, I realized that the driver's seat was very uncomfortable. It can be adjusted in three different ways, so I assumed I just didn't have it adjusted properly. Over the next three weeks or so, I adjusted it in every possible way, but it remained uncomfortable. I contacted the dealer. And they offered to help me buy a good used car (Thanks a lot!). I called North American Honda and they didn't care. And finally, I wrote Tokyo, but they just bounced the problem back to North American Honda. Finally, I got a call from some woman at North American Honda. She had all her talking points down pat.

I had purchased a Honda City ZX (GXI) in July 2008 from Iciban (HONDA MH- 04 DN 7717). Needless to say, the reason I opted for Honda was the excellent quality, and the after sales service provided by Honda. However, I am afraid that the experience I have gained for the last one and half year has nothing to show whatever I had initially thought of.

I purchased a new 2006 Honda Civic LX and now, 5 years and 41,000 miles later, the paint is fading and the clear coat is disintegrating! I regularly get my car cleaned and waxed, so it is not neglect. I park my car outside and the paint/clear coat should hold up! I went to Braman Honda in Lake Worth and they said my car was out of warranty - 3 years or 36,000miles.

The top coat on the roof of my 2007 Honda Civic is peeling. It started last year and is continually getting worse. We tried to repair it with rubbing compound and wax but it did not work.

I own the Touring version of the 2005 Honda Odyssey. The vehicle was purchased new. In the fall of 2008 the passenger-side sliding door was registering as being open. The dash light came on & the steady alarm that goes off would stay on while I was driving.I could de-activate the alarm by sliding the doors' control button to a manual setting.However, the dash light would keep warning me by"binging") that the door was "open".The motor would engage briefly while & the door would actually move while I was driving! I was unaware at the time that the door's bad connection was also draining my battery.Took it in 12/08 to a dealership.Was told the motor & latch had to be replaced along with the battery to the tune of $691.Done.Late in 2010 the other sliding door (passenger side) started doing the same thing.My battery died repeatedly & at 1 point was replaced.Took it to another dealership & they found the exact same door problem as the previous incident.Motor & latch had to be replaced on THAT door for $945. Done.

I have 2004 Honda Accord and the clear coat is starting to peel and it looks awful. It looks like it has a disease. I went to local dealership in Kamloops, BC and they said it was too far outside the warranty period and they won't do anything and referred me to Honda Canada. I called them and they called the dealer and then told me the exact same thing. Honda does not stand behind their product. I was a fan of Honda but will reconsider buying another one. Toyota is being held responsible for their paint problems so why not Honda. Very dissatisfied. Honda Customer relations also got very snotty with me which I didn't appreciate. I made sure I was calm and was not aggressive or assertive and she was still a bag when I was asking why Honda would not stand behind their product. Doesn't pay to be nice! May be a $5,000 paint job to even look presentable if we want to sell.

We always had Hondas and have been well satisfied. We bought our daughter a Honda Civic, and the roof went patchy. We waxed it thinking it might be the sun, and it progressively got worse. The Honda dealers do not want to know. It is now spreading to the hood. I have been trying to find out at least HOW TO STOP IT SPREADING.

I have a Honda Stunner CBF 125cc and my bike number is tn-09-bf-5872. I purchased this bike on 8/11/2010.

Unfair denial of warranty for my 2010 Honda Rancher with VIN ** purchased on 10/22/2011.

Brought a Honda Accord 6 years ago. It is full paid off. The inside roof upholstery started coming apart about a year & a half ago it is just falling down. I happen to also own a Toyota Camry & a Nissan Xterra and their inside roof upholstery is still great and those cars are also much older than the Honda Accord. I also have a friend who has a Honda Civic with the same problem. I think it is just unfair to all Honda owners for this to be happening. I will never buy another Honda or let any of my family or friends do the same.

The gear handle of my car, Honda City GXI (automatic), has been damaged. I have ordered a new one but there was no response from the Apex Honda Showroom, Kurla, since the last two months.

My Honda Accord 2000's clear coat factory-installed coating is wearing off on my roof, hood and surfaces around my windows. I have taken it the Schaumberg dealer who told me to go to a body shop. They stated they would have to repaint the entire car for a few thousand dollars. The car only have 75k miles and is in good shape. This has just started this year.

I was in an accident -- a frontal impact that damaged my car. The side air bags on the passenger's side deployed even though there was no damage to the passenger's side of the car. However, the front air bags did not go off, even though that was where the major damage occurred.

On July 5, 2011, I called American Honda to report a bad OPDS sensor on my 2001 Honda Civic. I provided the VIN number to find out if the warranty was valid, which the lady informed me there was a service bulletin that extended the warranty on this item by 10 years. She then went on to say my vehicle service date was July 1, 2011 which was no longer covered under warranty. I told her that the light came on Friday, July 1, 2011 while driving the vehicle to Stereo Unlimited and upon arriving home later that day made an appointment with Buckeye Honda to have the vehicle serviced on July 5. American Honda would not cover the warranty because it is expired for 4 days now. Although the appointment was made on July 1 and serviced on July 5 American Honda would not pay for any repairs.

I have a 2009 Honda Accord, purchased new. About one year ago, my wife experienced violent shuddering with the car during her drive to work. She contacted the dealer who advised her to shut the car off immediately and said they would have the car towed to the dealership. The car was shuddering, RPMs were all over the place, and the engine warning light was on. Once back at the dealership, the dealer stated they could not reproduce the symptoms; no code was stored in the computer, and nothing was done. Two months after -- the same situation. This time, my wife stopped the car, turned the car off, waited about 1 minute, started the car back up, and there was no engine warning light, no shuddering.

Honda, again, does not take responsibility for the defects in their car. I am the original owner of a 2002 Civic and always had the proper maintenance done on my car. My SRS light went on in my car; and when I took it to an independent dealer, I found out it was my seat belt latch and assembly that was no good. It had to be replaced. I then found out that seat belts have a lifetime warranty and was told to call Honda Headquarters for reimbursement. My request for payment was denied because they said that the SRS light went on; and Honda was not responsible for reimbursing me. I reiterated what it said in the owner's manual about it being a lifetime warranty for seat belts -- to no avail. The person I spoke to at Honda headquarters in California had no customer service skills. She was extremely unprofessional and rude. Now, my back window does not work either. Two years ago, my transmission went on my Civic. It went without any warning. Honda would not take any responsibility on that either. I then had it fixed by an independent dealer. I will never buy another Honda vehicle.

Second failure 12 months later, in a major expense, upon exam of trans heli-gear excessively worn with no fluid in trans

The back seat window regulator went out January 2010 after 6-plus years of ownership and I am the original owner. Now, June 2011, the same window regulator is broken again. It is not acceptable to replace the same part less than 18 months later and potentially every 18 months. The warranty on the part was 12 months and 12,000 miles. How does driving more than 12,000 miles have any affect on the window regulator? The purpose of the window is to go up and down and it did for 6-plus years. And after that repair, it is again broken. Marla, the "only" supervisor at American Honda customer service in Torrance, CA belongs has no customer service skills.

While driving on the highway in my 2010 Honda Civic, my rear passenger window suddenly exploded. Broken glass was projected throughout the backseat and could have seriously harmed someone sitting there. The dealer in Moncton admitted that two other Honda vehicles were serviced for the same reason recently (2011) and that the exploding windows in their vehicles are due to the car being tightly sealed. The dealer is replacing the window, but I no longer want this vehicle as I do not feel safe in it. The dealer as well as the customer service representative at Honda Canada is refusing a buy-back even though this is a relatively new purchase. I hope this message will warn any customers, especially those with young children who would normally sit in the back seat, of this real danger.

I am writing to complain about the Honda Civic ad campaign where the dead guy is trying to golf and his arms come off and are run over by the ball retrieval equipment. This shows no respect for human life. I have always respected Honda and as a previous owner I am very insulted by this ad.

This is my "retirement car." I feel stuck with an auto that will soon look as if it has a disease, since I have seen many, many Hondas with that very same problem. This is a long-term problem that seems not to have been addressed by Honda. I would never buy another Honda unless this is resolved to my satisfaction.

I have a 2011 Honda CRV. Two days ago, 2 engine bolts broke while I was driving. The car has 5,000 miles and is 5 months old. I talked to one of the sales managers by the name of Eric. He said that my car does not qualify as a lemon. I would have to have 5 similar incidents to qualify. I could have been killed and this jerk says that I have to keep the car and get it fixed. He also says that he cannot keep taking back cars since he would lose money and the dealership could go out of business. I want to break the lease with Honda and he will not support my efforts. He says that it rarely works. I am supposed to drive this car with my family which includes 2 grand kids until someone is seriously injured. A typical car salesman, money first safety never.

I purchased a 2008 Honda Civic SI with 16,000 miles and 20,000-mile warranty remaining. I owned the vehicle for 3 weeks when the clutch failed. The local Honda dealership disassembled it. They stated that it failed through normal wear and is not covered by warranty. I contacted Honda customer service. They stated I should have purchased the car from Honda and the clutch is not covered.

Just a follow up with my 2010 replacement of my CRV. The car I have now (the white one) is making the same noise that the first car did. I took it in for repair to the same place I did my last car and they said there is nothing they can do since it didn't fix my last car. I called Honda and let them know and the service department is calling Honda as well to see what the next step is. Sounds like a design or equipment flaw that Honda needs to look into and fix. I don't know if it is just in the line of CR-V's or various makes/models, but Honda should definitely look into this. I am trying to get the word out so hopefully Honda will look into this and no one else has to go through this again!

I purchased a 2011 Honda Civic EX Coupe on November 26, 2010. In less than a month, it started having issues. The car has been into the dealer more than the four times and is applicable in the state of Arkansas lemon law. Relays to the fuel pump have been replaced, the battery has been checked and the ignition switch has been replaced.

About two years ago, bubbles appeared on the hood of my 2004 black Honda Civic. Almost the entire hood is now exposed, and I will have to repaint my car. I called the dealership from which I purchased the car while the car was still under extended warranty, but they would not repaint the hood. I am very dissatisfied, and I am having to have my hood repainted.

I had an exhaust issue with my 2010 Honda CR-V and took it for repairs four times and had district look at it as well. I qualified for the lemon law program. Here is where the story starts. I first tell them I would like a car comparable to mine. Mine had a roof rack, upgraded wheels, nitrogen in the tires, door edge guards, mud guards and wheel guards, protective paint sealant and fabric sealant among a couple of other things. I also said please no white car. The first car they try to replace with was white and had no equipment. The second car was EX that I didn't need and they wanted me to pay extra for this. The car now is a white car and no extras at all.

My 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 with now 44,000 miles has transmission failure. ABS braking locked up and I could have died on a major highway. There should be a recall on this problem. Many people are continuously replacing their transmission one after another on the same car. The service center strung me along saying, "I don't hear any noises, the engine sounds like it's running fine." Transmissions do not fail overnight. Honda needs to take responsibility before people die due to transmission failure. Their engines will produce error codes and malfunction like my ABS that locked up on me.

I noticed clear coat coming off my 2006 Honda Civic in April 2010. It was progressively getting worse on the top of the car, the trunk lid, and the hood and various other places. so I phoned my dealership in August 2010. I was told I needed to talk to a Honda representative. I waited about 6 weeks and called back again. I was reassured that I was on the list, but there were a lot of people in front of me. I never heard anything as of Feb. 2011. So I called back and was told that somehow I was missed. Six weeks later, I still did not hear back so I called Honda corporate and filed a complaint. I was given an appointment with the Honda rep. about a week later. The rep examined my car and said that the issue was environmental and that Honda was not going to do anything about it. They blamed me and said I did not take care of the outside. He said that it was from bird droppings and dirt.

I bought a used 2008 Honda Accord EX-L with 22,000 miles on it. At 30,000 miles, the rear brakes were shot and the driver's power seat track was sticking. I brought it to Vandergriff Honda Service Department in Arlington, Texas. I had a nightmare experience with the service department. But after 3 weeks, I finally had the rear brakes and seat fixed; after spending hundreds on rental cars and having them repaint my door frame from gouging it to the metal while repairing the seat.

I purchased a 2008 Honda Civic LX from Riverside Metro Honda in August of 2007. I have always maintained the vehicle based on Honda's recommendations with oil changes and tire rotations every 5,000 miles, as well as the 15K and 30K maintenance check ups.

I have a 2003 Honda Accord LX 4DR Sedan in Taffeta White. The clear coat is peeling near the roof line edge and front windshield edge. I've kept the car in great condition, but this is very disconcerting. I have not had this problem with my previous Honda purchases. This will cost at least $1,500 to $2,000 to repaint with base and clear coat.

My 2000 Honda Odyssey front drivers side spring broke in two. It had a loud popping noise. It broke when I pulled into driveway and lost its suspension in front.
