Jun 2023 Crash

The vehicle loses acceleration while driving slows it down making it dangerous on roads for crash and when it shifts gears it jerks the car

Type: Vehicle, Vehicle: 2015 HONDA CIVIC, Manufacturer: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Incident: Jul 2022
May 2023

The car was operating fine until made a turn and the car stopped moving entirely, it would not accelerate, and the wheels would not turn. Shifting gears produced no results, and the car was completely stuck. The transmission cap on top of the CVT transmission was off, but had never been removed by me or another service provider. The safety of myself and others was put at risk because I was abruptly stopped by the issue in the middle of the road, unable to move, and received no prior warning that there were any issues with the vehicle. Multiple service centers have been unable to get the car moving again, and the issue persists. They are saying the transmission needs to be entirely replaced. It has been expected by both an independent auto shop and a transmission specialist. I received no warning of any issues with the car on the dashboard at any point.

My Transmission plug. Just popped off. I noticed a shaking vibration at high speed and finally checked the engine and found the transmission plug had popped off. I put it back in but read that many 2015 civics have had this happen. It needs to be addressed now! This should not happen and could cause serious problems!

On March 21, 2022, I was driving at a slow speed and the car attempted to cut off. I was trying to accelerate and the car decreased speed and was trying to stop. (Stalling) . The car did not completely shut off. The car was hooked up to machines and Cassat (Duval Honda) could not find anything wrong with the car and can't duplicate the issue. They overcharging because they require a $70.00 diagnostic fee whereas I have now discovered that Coggin Honda is doing the ethical thing and not charging a diagnostic fee. Please note stalling is a safety issue and puts consumers in harms way. This could potentially cause accidents.

The AC compressor broke and needed replaced. This is on a car with 69785 miles that is only 6 years old. This is defective and it seems to be a common issue. I think that this should be subject to a recall

The CVT belt broke on my 2015 Honda Civic. I see on that there was a recall for other 2015 Honda civics with the same issue. There are countless forums online with other people like me who have 2015 civics that were not covered under the CVT recall. It’s my understanding that there have been at least 40 other complaints from the thousands of other civic owners like myself who were not covered yet experiencing the same issue. Hopefully my report is enough to tip the scales. I am now being quoted $7,200 to fix a problem that has been shown to be unsafe in other civics of the same year. Thank you.

MY 2015 HONDA CIVIC HAS PAINT PEELING OFF IN SHEETS. THE POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE ISN'T MY CAR BUT OTHER CARS AROUND ME WHEN DRIVING. IF A SHEET OF PAINT PEELS OFF AND LANDS ON A DRIVER'S WINDSHIELD CAUSING THEM NOT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THAT'S A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. HONDA REFUSES TO OWN UP TO THE PAINT DEFECT AND ISN'T WILLING TO THOROUGHLY CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THEN HEARD A LOUD BOOM SOUND. NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE ANYWHERE AROUND ME. WHEN I GOT HOME I NOTICED MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. I HAVE CLEANED UP GLASS. NOW I'M GONNA HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL I CAN AFFORD TO REPLACE IT. NOT SURE WHY IT EXPLODED, BUT I AM VULNERABLE TO CAR THEFT NOW. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. I DON'T FEEL MY CAR IS SECURE WITHOUT THE GLASS ON MY ROOF. SHOULD BE A WAY TO GET MANUFACTURERS TO HELP. ALSO, I AM LUCKY TO HAVE HAD THE WINDOW FULLY OPEN.
