Complaint
2008
SUSPENSION:FRONT
I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTED SWERVING TO MY LEFT. I PRESSED MY BRAKES AND I HEARD A LITTLE EXPLOSION, BUT I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT. MY CAR STARTED SWERVING EVEN MORE AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF MY CONTROL. MY CAR SPUN AND HIT ANOTHER CAR AND THEN SPUN AGAIN AND ENDED UP CRASHING INTO THE LEFT SIDE DIVIDER. WHEN POLICE ARRIVED AT THE SCENE, THEY NOTICED MY WHEEL WAS POPPED OUT. THE WHEEL MALFUNCTION MUST HAVE CAUSED THE ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE WHEEL POPPED OUT EVEN BEFORE I HIT THE DIVIDER. *TR

AIR BAGS
DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF MY DAUGHTER OWNING THE 2012 CIVIC SHE HAS ENCOUNTERED AIR BAG ISSUES. WHEN SHE RIDES IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, WITH HER HUSBAND DRIVING, THE AIRBAG LIGHT PERIODICALLY COMES ON, INDICATING THE AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHE MAY NOT BE PROTECTED WITH THE AIRBAG DURING AN ACCIDENT, THEY TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE ON THREE DOCUMENTED TIMES OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL MONTHS. THIS EXCLUDES THE MULTIPLE TRIPS BACK WHEN PARTS HAVE BEEN ORDERED OR BEING SENT HOME WITHOUT SERVICE DUE TO TIME ISSUES. THE DEALER IS LARGO HONDA IN FLORIDA CITY, FLORIDA. EACH TIME SHE WENT, THEY CHANGED DIFFERENT COMPONENTS AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES ASKED HER TO STAY FOR A TEST DRIVE TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE REPRODUCED AND TO DETERMINE IF THE FAILURE OF A MAJOR SAFETY COMPONENT OF THE CAR HAD BEEN FIXED. EACH TIME THE SAFETY PROBLEM SURFACED EITHER ON THE RIDE HOME OR WITHIN A DAY OR TWO OF BEING IN FOR THE REPAIR. IN FACT THE LAST TIME THEY RETURNED THE CAR FOR SERVICE TO LARGO THEY REPLACED THE FULL PASSENGER SEAT WITHOUT RESOLVING THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT ANYONE RIDING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT DUE TO THE QUESTION IF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONAL OR NOT. *TR
