Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY AT THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK JUST UNDER THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT DEVELOPS CRACKS BECAUSE OF IT BEING MADE OF PLASTIC.THIS HAPPENED ON MY CAR. QUITE A BIT OF FUEL LEAKS OUT OF THESE CRACKS WHEN OPERATING THE AUTOMOBILE. THE AVERAGE PERSON MIGHT NOT EVER KNOW THIS IF IT WAS ALWAYS PARKED OUTSIDE. THE POTENTIAL FOR FIRE OR EXPLOSION IS RATHER PRONOUNCED BECAUSE OF WHERE IT SITS. IF HONDA IS GOING TO USE PLASTIC IN ITS FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM THEN LET THEM MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T LEAK YEARS DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHER 2002 CIVIC OWNERS. MY CIVIC IS NOT AN SI BUT IT WAS THE ONLY 02 CIVIC LISTED ON YOUR SITE . WE HAD THE PUMP PUMP ASSEMBLY REPLACED. IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THAT THIS ISSUE COULD LEAD TO TERRIBLE ACCIDENTS TO OTHER OWNERS

WHEN GIVEN MY VIN, THE HONDA RECALL SITE GIVES BACK THE WRONG MODEL OF CAR. MY CAR IS A CIVIC AND IT IS HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE THAT ALL THE 2002S EXCEPT MINE NEED THE TAKATA RECALL.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
