1994 Honda Civic Problems

MY MOTHER WAS DRIVING HER VEHICLE ALONE AND HAD AN ENCOUNTER WITH A DEER STRIKE TO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE SAFETY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE ACCIDENT WAS IMMEDIATELY REPORTED TO THE LOCAL DEALER. SINCE THAT DATE (UNKNOWN TO ME) THE SRS LIGHT HAS BEEN ON CONTINUOUSLY AND HONDA REFUSES TO FIX THIS POTENTIAL DEADLY SYSTEM FLAW. *TR

MY LITTLE ONE AND I WERE IN A THREE CAR ACCIDENT ON THE FREEWAY. THE CAR SPUN OUT OF CONTROL AND NEITHER OF THE AIR BAGS WENT OFF. *JS

ABS LIGHT COMES ON. I HEAR A SOUND AS IF THERE'S SOMETHING LOOSE WHEN ABS LIGHT COMES ON AS WELL AS PULSATING WHILE IN MOTION. SHIFT LEVER ALSO GETS STUCK WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT OF PARKING LOT.

1994 HONDA CIVIC EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE CRASHING INTO TWO CARS.*MR THE OFFICER CALLED TO THE ACCIDENT FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES, BUT MANAGED TO GIVE THE CONSUMER A TICKET FOR $70.00. THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO HAVE SUDDEN ACCELERATION PROBLEMS, WHILE THE CONSUMER'S FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. *BF *NM

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND MY SEATBELT DID NOT CATCH. *TR

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT FAILS TO REMAIN LATCHED DURING NORMAL DRIVING. FEELS AS IF IT LATCHES WHEN PUSHED FULLY IN, BUT THEN POPS OUT OR CAN BE PULLED OUT.

WHILE COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE'S MOTOR STARTED TO SOUND FUNNY, AND THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED DIFFICULTY IN STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE BOLT IN THE CRANK SHAFT HAD LOOSENED AND WALLOWED. *LA THE REFURBISHED CRANKSHAFT ONLY LASTED 3 WEEKS AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. *JB

WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING VEHICLE WAS HESITATING IN SPEED, AND THER WAS WHITE SMOKE COMING OUT. *AK

ALL FOUR OF MY SEARS (GOODYEAR) WEATHERHANDLER LS TIRES HAVE SIGNS OF BELT SEPARATION. TWO INDEPENDENT GARAGES (ONE A GOODYEAR FACTORY-OWNED STORE) STATE THAT THEY HAVE SIGNS OF BELT SEPARATION, THE GOODYEAR REPRESENTATIVE GOING SO FAR AS TO STATE THAT CATASTROPHIC FAILURE MAY RESULT. SEARS, WHO WARRANTS THE TIRES, ON THE OTHER HAND FLATLY DENIES THERE IS BELT SEPARATION, BUT HAS AGREED TO REPLACE PRO-RATA.*AK

THIS TIRE BLEW OUT ON THE FREEWAY WITH NO APPARENT REASON AND COMPLETELY SEPARATED, CAUSING THE CAR TO SPIN 360 DEGREES IN FREEWAY TRAFFIC. IT WAS A CATSTRAUPHIC FAILURE WITH COMPLETE SEPARATION OF THE TIRE WITH NOTHING REMAINING BUT THE TWO PARTIAL SIDEWALLS ALL THE TREAD WAS COMPLETELY GONE AND THE STEEL BELTS WERE COMPLETELY SEVERED WITH NO SHREADS LEFT JUST A CLEAN SEPARATION. I AM WORRIED THAT THESE TIRES ARE UNSAFE AND WILL CAUSE OTHER FAILURES AND ACCIDENTS. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT!!!!!! PLEASE ADVISE AS TO WETHER THESE TIRES ARE SAFE AND WHO THE MANUFASCTURER IS. I KNOW PEP BOYS MARKETS THEM BUT I DON'T KNOW WHO MANUFACTURES THEM. *AK

I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN IN TWO ACCIDENTS BOTH INVOLVING THE FRONT END OF MY CAR. IN THE FIRST I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 40/MPH MY CAR HIT A PATCH OF ICE AND SLID INTO A BUS "T-BONING" IT. THE SECOND ACCIDENT I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 35/MPH WHEN SOMEONE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME I PROCEEDED TO HIT THEM AND THEN A TELEPHONE POLE, AT WHICH TIME MY GIRLFRIEND HIT HER HEAD ON THE WINSHIELD. DURING BOTH OF THESE INCIDENTS MY AIRBAGS HAVE FAILED TO DEPLOY. I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO CONTACT MANCHESTER HOANDA WHERE MY FATHER BOUGHT THE CAR BUT THEY STILL HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO MY COMPLAINT. UPON IMPACT, AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. *AK

WHILE IN MOTION, THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR BURST INTO PIECES. *JG

WHILE DRIVING THE AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR EXPLODED ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, RESULTING IN COMPRESSOR PIECES FLYING AROUND THROUGH THE ENGINE. 1ST INCIDENT OCCURRED IN 1999, AND 2ND INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 06/29/02.

AM/FM STEREO AND CASSETTE PLAYER FAILED. NLM

MAN-TRAN: TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK; WILL NOT SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR UNTIL VEHICLE COOLS DOWN; SPEED 10 MPH; ALSO, ENGINE STALLS; RIGHT FRONT DOOR JAMMED. TT

I WAS DRIVING FROM SF HOME AND MY REAR VIEW MIRROR FELL OFF, TAKING A PIECE OF MY WINDSHIELD WITH IT. I DON'T HAVE A HOLE IN MY WINDSHIELD, MORE LIKE A CRATER ON THE INSIDE OF IT. MY CAR IS A 1994 HONDA CIVIC DX COUPE WITH ABOUT 116,000 MILES ON IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS OUT OF THE BASIC WARRANTY, BUT THIS ISN'T AN ISSUE THAT HAS TO DO WITH NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. MY WINDSHIELD IS PERFECTLY FINE OTHERWISE AND NOTHING HIT MY CAR WHEN IT HAPPENED NOR DID I RUN OVER SOMETHING THAT MAY OF JOLTED MY CAR. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY DENIED MY CLAIM SAYING ONLY SEAT BELTS HAVE UNLIMITED WARRANTY. TS

CANNOT DEFROST WINDSHIELD BECAUSE HEATING SYSTEM IS TURNED DOWN TOO LOW-WAS TOLD CANNOT TURN IT UP BECAUSE OF A PLASTIC PIECE IN AUTO. TT
