NHTSA Complaint #11112307 — 2001 HONDA CIVIC

I RECEIVED A 2001 HONDA CIVIC LX FROM MY DAD AS A GIFT AROUND THE END OF APRIL, 2018. WHICH HE HAD SPENT ABOUT 2000 IN THE MOTOR BEFORE GIVING IT TO ME. THE ISSUES OCCURRED WITH THE CAR OVER HEATING RIGHT WHEN WE LANDED INTO LAS VEGAS WHICH WE WERE COMING FROM SAN DIMAS CALIFORNIA, IT TOOK ABOUT 3-4 HOURS TO GET BACK HOME. I HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR OVER HEATING A LOT WHICH HAD TO DO WITH THE SENSORS AT FIRST WHICH HAD GOTTEN REPLACED. THAN AFTER THE FAN TO COOL DOWN THE RADIATOR WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY TO WHERE ONLY ONE FAN WOULD KICK IN. NOW OUT OF NO WHERE MY CAR HAD ISSUES ACCELERATING WHICH SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SOMEBODY REALLY GETS HURT. FROM ALL THE REVIEWS THANK GOD IN THE LONG RUN EVERYBODY IS OKAY BUT IN ORDER FOR THIS TO BE RECALLED IT'S LIKE PEOPLE NEED TO BE INJURED OR DEATHS NEED TO REALLY OCCUR BEFORE WHEN THINGS LIKE THIS SHOULD BE FIXED SO SERIOUS PROBLEMS DON'T OCCUR IN LEADS TO DEATH. I ALMOST GOT SIDE SWIPED WHEN I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO TRY TO MOVE TO SAFTEY REALLY SLOW WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE CONTROL OF THE CAR MOVING AT THAT PASTE WHEN IT WOULDN'T MOVE ANY FASTER THAN WHAT IT WWAS.SINCE I FOUND OUT MY CAR HAVING ISSUES ON ACCELERATING AND BEING ABLE TO MOVE AROUND I FIND OUT THERE IS THE AIR BAG RECALL WHICH I RECEIVE A PAPER IN MAIL TO FIX BUT HOW WHEN I CAN'T EVEN GET THERE. IT'S THE END OF JULY 2018 IN WHICH MY CAR IS OFFICIALLY UNABLE TO BE MOVED. SO MANY PROBLEMS WITHIN 3 MONTHS AND SO MUCH MONEY WASTED IT'S RIDICULOUS.
