Honda's Not So Superb After All!! by weyreypey: 6:35am On Mar 09, 2019
YET SOME JOKERS HERE CRITICIZE GERMAN MARQUEES grin grin

[b]We purchased this car under the impression Honda is a good car. Never again! Even the company was horribly rude, worse than non-helpful- accusatory, and defended their illegal actions of their dealerships. Our civic has since 20k had steering problems, shifting problems, battery problems, engine issues and other parts having to be replaced by notice of recall or failed. However the dealership which did the repairs failed to properly document and repair saying the noises, shaking, and hard shifting are normal. The problems have constantly gotten worse and now that the car is over warranty Honda insulted us plus refusing to repair the car! Go get a Hyundai or other car with a 100k warranty.






Never again, Honda. Never again.

I will never own another Honda. I own a 2007 with 77k miles. 1 owner, all routine maintenance done. The engine failed. Coolant leaked into the engine, the head is completely warped. This relates to a known issue but the dealership claimed the block wasn't fully cracked so they won't cover a cent of the replacement. Needing a new engine at 77k miles? That is unacceptable. I am completely appalled with the treatment I have received and will never own another Honda.



Do not buy this car

This is not a hybrid, do not pay the extra money! I previously owned a 2002 Prius but when it was up for renewal and had over 120k miles I thought it was a good time to trade it in. Thinking that Honda was a solid company I felt confident about buying the 2007 Civic Hybrid. It was the worst decision! Advertised mpg of 40+ I only get <27mpg - I could have spent thousands less for a regular Sudan with better gas mileage. The acceleration is also DANGEROUS with the IMA motor sometimes it will accelerate and then others it will barely move almost causing multiple accidents. Do not waste your money!!!






Do not buy a Civic / Major quality problems

Bought new, maintained 100% on time at a Honda dealership. MAJOR transmission problems, major paint problems, total engine failure without warning at 131,000 miles. DO NOT buy this car, at any price.

the worst car I have ever owned, I went thru soo many tires , I could've paid for another car with the amount of money I spent on new tires, then because of a sensor problem the engine overheated and I had to buy another motor, of course because I used the car as a daily commuter car , my warranty was out within the 1st year of driving it, it rated at 40 mpg, I may have averaged 30 mpg at the most, the car vibrated badly, Honda motor company could care less about any of my problems,

Tire wear is terrible because of a defective Rear Upper Control Arm. Honda did not do a recall but there was a class action suit forcing Honda to replace the defective parts and reimburse customers for premature tire wear. Unfortunately for me, I did not find out until after the expiration of the settlement which was January 16, 2014. That is after I spent more than $2,000 for new tires, struts, shocks, alignments, etc., trying to fix the problem. 2006 through 2009 models have extended warranties related to another serious issue where coolant leaks and can cause engine block damage and complete engine failure. The seats are wearing out much faster than any car I have ever owned and I am average size and the car only has 80,000 miles on it.

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

My 2007 had the engine crack issue. Dealer and Honda wont replace it. They want to charge me $4200 dollars. If you are thinking about it, please don't do it. Don't buy any Civic from 2006 to 2009. Update: these cars still suck. That $4200 dollars won't fix it. It'll just make it driveable so you can sell it to the next shmuck:-/

Dear Poster,

You lied. Best car ever owned with my Accord 2006.

Check my moniker, i have used 2001 Camry, upgraded to a 2005 Corolla, then Accord 2006 now this 2009 Civic.

Honda is far better than Toyota. I have used both and will say it. Engine is turgid, speed, interior, handling and comfort.

Maybe you bought a cheap flooded car and you are here to demarket an amazing product.

Attached is my baby. Ever ready to go anywhere with so much speed and attractiveness.
