2009
SERVICE BRAKES, AIR
I PURCHASED A 2009 CIVIC IN AUGUST OF 2009. MY CAR IS NOW IN THE SHOP WITH LESS THAN 24K MILES ON THE CAR IN NEED OF NEW BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUES IT SEEMS THAT MANY '08 AND '09 HONDA OWNERS, ESPECIALLY CIVIC OWNERS, ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THE REPAIR IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY AND IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS WELL AS A DISAPPOINTMENT IN THE QUALITY OF MANUFACTURING. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS "A NORMAL PROBLEM" AND NOT MUCH CONCERN WAS GIVEN OVER THE SAFETY OF BAD BRAKES AT SUCH AN EARLY AGE OF A CAR. *TR

STRUCTURE
THE CLEARCOAT PAINT IS PEELING ON THE ROOF AND TRUNK AND OTHER AREAS OF THE CAR ARE LOOKING DULL LIKE THEY WILL PEEL SOON TOO. THIS CAR HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND THERE IS NO REASON FOR THIS HAPPENING, OTHER THAN DEFECTIVE PAINT. ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT SAFETY RELATED, THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR
