NHTSA Complaint #10641464 — 2007 HONDA CIVIC

MY SON WAS DRIVING AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A 5 WAY INTERSECTION CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR. MY CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR MADE LOUD RUBBING NOISE. CAR WAS TOWED TO HONDA DEALER. I WAS TOLD IN WAS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND CLUTCH. I CONTACTED HONDA WARRANTIES I BOUGHT THE CAR AS A CERTIFIED USED HONDA. IT HAD 100000 MI WARRANTY WHICH I WAS PAST. HONDA ADVISE IT WAS 3900.00 IF FIX AND AGREED TO PAY 1300. IN READING ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2007 YEAR I FEEL THEY SHOULD HAVE PAID MORE. SINCE OWNING THE CAR I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES FROM HONDA ABOUT ENGINE LEAKAGE PROBLEM AND THAT ENGINE IS COVERED FOR 10YEARS, ALSO REAR CONTROL ARMS, AND I JUST RECEIVED IN MAIL A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE ABOUT PREMATURE BREAK WARE. AT AROUND 70000 I HAD TO REPLACE MOTOR MOUNTS THAT WAS COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR DRUM BRAKES AT 90000. I HAVE ALWAYS DRIVEN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A CLUTCH EVERY AND KEEP MOST CARS FOR OVER 150000 MI. AND DRUM BRAKES SHOULD NEVER HAVE GONE AT 90000. I HAVE TO SAY VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH HONDA AND FROM READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ON YOUR SITE THERE IS PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSIONS ON THIS YEAR. *TR
