1995 HONDA CIVIC

CLOCKSPRING FOR AIRBAG IS FAULTY.

95 HONDA CIVIC SEDAN 4 DOOR STALLS WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED ALSO IS GETTING HARDER TO START. ALSO STALLS WHEN NOT MOVING ALSO. YOU CAN DRIVE 10 FEET OR A FEW MILES DEPENDING UPON THE OUTSIDE TEMP. AND WEATHER CONDITIONS. WHEN THE CAR IS COLD IT WILL STALL AND YOU HAVE TO WEIGHT APPROX. 5-30MINUTES FOR IT TO RESTART. IF THE WEATHER IS HOT IT STALLS VERY QUICKLY AND TAKES APPROX. 3-4 HOURS TO RESTART. WE HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP, FUEL PUMP SCREEN, FUEL PUMP RELAY, FUEL INJECTOR RELAY, DISTRIBUTOR CAP, ROTOR, IGNITER AND CONDENSER AND IT STILL STALLS. WE HAVE TAKES IT TO TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS TWICE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSIS THE PROBLEM. I SEEN THE RECALLS ON THE IGNITION SWITCH FOR THE 98 AND UP AND THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF HONDA AS A RECALL FOR THE 95 CIVIC ALSO OR CAN I ANTICIPATE ONE IN THE FUTURE. THIS PROBLEM STARTED IN JULY 2018 AND HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE.

THE AIRBAG IN THIS CAR DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE BEEN HIT TWICE, AND KNOW AS A FACT THE AIRBAG "DID-NOT DEPLOY" EITHER TIMES. MY SEAT-BELT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS WEARING AWAY FROM IT ROTTING AWAY, I PUT SOME WOOD GLUE ON THE BELT TO STOP ANY DETERIORATION ON THE BAG. I CALLED THE PALM SPRINGS; CA HONDA DEALER AND THEY STATED MY CAR IS NOT COVERED. PLEASE CALL ME AT [XXX]. THANK YOU.

I HAVE A 95 HONDA CIVIC VX I PURCHASED NEW FROM THE LOCAL DEALER HERE IN AUSTIN TEXAS. FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS MY CAR WOULD STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY AND A COUPLE OF TIMES AROUND TOWN FOR NO REASON AT ALL, BUT WOULD COME BACK ON A FEW SECONDS LATER. TODAY AS I WRITE THIS MESSAGE I AM WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK TO COME GET ME AND MY HONDA CIVIC FROM THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. MY CAR FINALLY DIED OUT TODAY WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS ABOVE BUT THIS TIME THE CAR WOULDN'T START AGAIN. I CAN GET THE CAR TO RUN IF I ONLY MANUALLY RELEASE THE IGNITION KEY A LITTLE BEFORE THE "ON" POSITION. IF I LET THE KEY GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO ON TO THE NORMAL "ON POSITION THE CAR WILL NOT START. I NOTICE THE DASH LIGHTS DON'T COME ON EITHER WHEN IN THE "ON" POSITION, BUT IF I WIGGLE THE KEY MANUALLY BACK AND FORTH FROM THE "ON" POSITION THE DASH LIGHT WILL COME ON. I'M GOING TO THE HONDA DEALER TOMORROW TO GET THEM TO PAY FOR MY TOW AND THE SWITCH. WHILE ON LINE RESEARCHING PROBLEM I CAME ACROSS THIS "HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN" HTTP://WWW.VISUALIMPRESSIONS.CA/SWITCH/... THIS IS A VERY VERY SCARY THING HAVE YOUR CAR DIE ON YOU FOR NO REASON... HONDA SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED EVERY HONDA DRIVER ABOUT THIS ISSUE !! JOHN *TR

FLOOR MAT DOESN'T STAY IN PLACE AND GETS CAUGHT UP IN THE ACCELERATOR, BRAKE AND CLUTCH PEDALS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF CHEAP MATERIAL WAS USED, BUT IT'S TERRIBLE! *TR

I PURCHASED 4 NEW NANKANG EX-500 TIRES FOR MY 1995 HONDA CIVIC EX IN OCTOBER 2005. THEY SEEMED TO BE IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION UP UNTIL THE INCIDENT. NO BALDING OR WEARING WAS VISIBLE. ON 2-12-06 WHILE TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROX. 75 MPH, THE SIDEWALL ON THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE WITHOUT WARNING AND VERY ABRUPTLY, FORCING ME INTO THE LANE TO MY RIGHT AND NARROWLY MISSING A COLLISION WITH A VEHICLE IN THAT LANE. I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER TO CHANGE THE TIRE FOR A SPARE. I OBVIOUSLY HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRE, AND IN ADDITION, I WILL NEED TO ADJUST MY ALIGNMENT AS IT WAS SERIOUSLY COMPROMISED AS A RESULT OF THIS INCIDENT. *NM

WHILE ACCELERATING AT LOW SPEED ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK TO THE FLOOR MAT TEMPORARILY. THIS CAUSED A MINOR COLLISION, OBJECT HIT GARAGE REAR WALL.

THIS IS A NOTICE I SENT FIRESTONE CONSUMER AFFAIRS ON 9 OCT 2003 "IN APRIL 2002, I PURCHASED 4 BRIDGESTONE INSIGNIA TIRES FOR MY DAUGHTER'S CAR FROM THE RANDOLPH AIR FORCE BASE (AFB) SERVICE STATION IN UNIVERSAL CITY, TEXAS. DURING THE PAST 18 MONTHS, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 3 TIRES DUE TO DEFECTS. ONE TIRE FAILED WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. THE SECOND TIRE HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IS WAS "OUT OF ROUND". THE TIRE I JUST REPLACED HAD A BULGE ON THE OUTER SIDEWALL. IF MY DAUGHTER FAILED TO NOTICE THIS WHILE SHE WAS CHECKING THE TIRES, SHE COULD HAVE HAD ANOTHER BLOW OUT! I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED YOUR TIRES BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING A QUALITY PRODUCT. BASED UPON MY EXPERIENCE, THIS IS CERTAINLY NOT THE CASE. IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY CONCERN, I HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR NEW TIRES (PRO-RATED COST), MOUNTING, BALANCING AND ROAD HAZARD. I WOULD THINK THAT AFTER THE DEATHS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FIRESTONE TIRE FAILURES, YOUR COMPANY WOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION TO MANUFACTURING A SAFE AND QUALITY PRODUCT THAT CUSTOMERS CAN RELY ON. I GUESS THIS IS OF NO CONCERN TO YOU. BE ASSURED, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE OF YOU PRODUCTS, AND I WILL MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE MY FRIENDS AND THE ARMY, AIR FORCE EXCHANGE SERVICE (AAFES), WHO SOLD AND INSTALLED THE TIRES, ARE AWARE OF MY EXPERIENCE. I CAN TELL YOU THAT AAFES SELLS ALLOT OF TIRES. I WILL ALSO NOTIFY THE NTSB SO THEY HAVE A RECORD OF THIS COMPLAINT...."" *LA

DRIVER'S DOOR HANDLE KNOB CRACKED. DEALER STATED THE NEED TO REPLACED ALL UNITS, AND IT WOULD COST $300. VEHICLE'S WARRANTY EXPIRED. *AK

PURCHASED 4 TIRES FROM GOODYEAR CALLED THE "CUB" IN MARCH. AT THE BEGINNING OF SEPT., THE TIRES ARE 6 MTHS OLD. INCIDENT #1: BEGINNING OF SEPTEMBER; TIRE#1 TREAD SPLIT APART. INCIDENT #2: TIRE #2 TREAD SPLITS APART. PER GOODYEAR'S REPLACEMENT POLICY, IF THE TIRE IS LESS THAN 25% WORN OR ONE YEAR OLD (WHICHEVER COMES FIRST) THE TIRE WILL BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. BOTH TIRES WERE SIX MONTHS OLD WHEN THE TREAD SPLIT. THE SECOND TIRE SPLIT A FEW DAYS AFTER THE FIRST. THE FIRST TIRE WAS REPLACED, GOODYEAR CHARGING FOR BALANCING ONLY. WHEN WE TOOK THE SECOND TIRE IN, WE WERE TOLD THAT THESE TIRED HAD BEEN "DISCONTINUED" AND WOULD NO LONGER BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THEY WOULD, HOWEVER, BE HAPPY TO "UPGRADE" THE TIRES FOR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE. WE WERE HANDLED DECEPTIVELY WITH THESE TIRES. WHAT WE WANT IS TO KNOW THAT WE WILL NOT BE PART OF THE STATISTICS OF FATALITIES WITH FAULTY TIRES SUCH AS WITH THE PREVIOUS GOODYEAR INCIDENTS. WE COMMUTE TO AND FROM SAN MARCOS OCASSIONALLY, AND WANT TO REST ASSURED THAT WE WILL SEE OUR LOVED ONES AT THE END OF THE DAY. WHAT WE ARE REQUESTING IS NOT UNREASONABLE. WE WOULD LIKE TIRES THAT ARE RELIABLE AND SAFE. WE PAID FOR THESE TIRES AND INSTALLATION IN MARCH OF 2003 AND EXPECT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO BE RENDERED AS PAID FOR. UPON CONTACTING CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE, ONLY IDENTIFYING HERSELF AS "MARY" BY HER CHOICE, SAID THAT IF WE WANTED TIRES THEY WOULD HAVE TO PRORATE THEM. NOTHING ELSE COULD BE DONE. TWO TIRES REMAIN ON OUR VEHICLE. IN EXPLAINING THE SITUATION, CONCERNED WITH OUR SAFETY, ASKING WHAT COULD BE DONE IN THE EVENT THAT WE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM (WITH TREADS SPLITTING) OR WITH AN ACCIDENT WITH THE REMAINING TIRES, WHAT COULD BE DONE? "MARY" REPLIED, "FILE A CLAIM WITH YOUR CAR INSURANCE" WE WOULD LIKE TO GET THE TIRES REPLACED OR HAVE OUR MONEY REFUNDED SO THAT WE CAN SEEK AND FIND "SAFE" TIRES FOR OUR VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION.
