2006 HONDA CIVIC Engine Problems

cracked engine block leaking coolant. Honda says it's not covered after the extended warranty expired. The issue starts happening in many vehicles after 100K miles and my car started seeing the issue at 135K miles . Dealer will not help, Honda of America won't help. this needs to turn into a recall please. Honda must reimburse or have the crack fixed.

- What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? My 2006 Honda Civic engine overheated. Upon diagnosis it was found that radiator coolant had leaked out due to cracks in the engine block (short block). Engine malfunction. - How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My teenage son drives this car and initially he did not notice coolant leak. Engine can stop working while driving on a freeway (seized engine) which is a very serious safety risk. - Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, local Honda dealer confirmed the problem and pointed me to a service bulletin 10-048 from American Honda [XXX] ) that noted this exact manufacturing defect. American Honda had provided extended warranty to allay customer fears at the time but without a recall. - Has the...

Car wont shift an jerks when u drive

The car developed a crack in the engine block resulting in coolant leaks. This is unsafe and produces a toxic smell. The car is only at 119,000 miles and Honda will not cover it because it is 10 years past the warranty date. This warranty needs to be extended further. 119,000 miles is not a good quality Honda product.

Engine overheats due to a crack in the engine block causing the coolant to leak.Overheated engine smokes and has the potential for fire. I did my research and spoke to handful of certified mechanics, the solution is as I understand is to replace the engine. there was a recall notice sent September 2014 to address this issue which I did not receive nor I had a problem at the time of notice. Could someone please look into this for us, it would greatly help me and my family to be safe on the road while driving this vehicle. Thank you,

I am a loyal 35 year honda Car owner I own a 2006 Civic ex 1.8 Coupe I take every care and keep maint. up to date and even have done a 100k service at it's now low 38,000 miles as of july 2022 I have the fear that this vehicle because of such low miles will go bad because of honda faulty porrus engine blocks they know it was and is still a major problem. Problem with my car is not feeling safe to drive long distance in fear of engine block suddenly leaks and overheats engine. honda refuses to recall all 2006-2008 civics. So why own such a nice perfectly upkept honda that my family' feels unsafe to drive across country, PLEASE MAKE THEM RECALL ALL ENGINES FROM 2006-2008 CIVICS COME ON WE HAVE BEEN LOYAL AND BUYING YOUR PRODUCTS NOW DO THE RIGHT THING AND RECALL A...

*****BOTH KEY TRANSPONDERS WERE RESPONSIVE TO THE CAR TODAY, IE GREEN KEY LIGHT LIT WHEN BOTH KEYS WERE INSERTED AND TURNED TO TURN ON THE VEHICLE ALLOWING THE CAR RADIO AND WINDOWS TO BE CONTROLLED, UNLIKE OTHER DAYS WHERE FRAUD OCCURRED SO THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE BOTH AND ONLY ONE OR THE OTHER***** Unidentified party, most likely remotely, Stole control of my vehicle through manipulating non factory installed equipment that was installed after market and using factory installed equipment in a manner not openly discussed with the purchaser and owner. If it’s the police again or the manufacturer/ dealership or any court, has never disclosed or notified ownership or responsibility of such activities for now ten years. Spoke to manager again to inform that vehicle was again manipulated in retaliation to returning the gym when no open discussion occurred or report was received about not continuing a relationship...

I have a cracked engine block due to the service bulletin and I need Honda to repair asap among other problems

Honda Civic, 2006, engine block cracked and car overheated due to coolant loss without alerting driver to safety concerns, putting him/herself in jeopardy, along with other drivers/passengers. Overheating causes engines to stop operating which is extremely dangerous and costly. Driver ascertained that something wasn’t right at lower speeds (residence/business district). A faint whining was coming from the dashboard. This would likely not have been heard driving at faster speeds, and/or with the radio on. Once parked the operator smelled and saw smoke emanating from the vehicle hood and noticed leaking under the car. There was no prior warning sign. According to recent communication with Honda America by the operator, this engine block failure is a known issue and a result of a casting problem during manufacturing. A voluntary warranty extension was made in 2014 for 2006 - 2008 (extended to 2009) for Honda Civics for 10 years from the date...

13 December, 2021 VIN: [XXX] Background: 30 June, 2015 - Took Our 2006 Honda Civic 4 door sedan (LX) in for service (odometer reading 75,801) in order to address coolant leaks. The OEM dealership indicated there was a recall on this specific engine and Honda USA replaced the short block and gaskets ( exhibit H0CS10872 – replacement engine ID number D67141432M ) to correct this problem. Issue: 10 December, 2021 - While driving home (8 miles on local errands) the engine began making a rattling noise. No warranting indicators appeared on the dashboard alerts. Parked the in garage, inspected the garage floor for fluid leaks – there were none. Immediately arranged to take can in for service. 12 December, 2021 - Left residence to take the car in for an inspection and / or service. Without warranting the engine failed, lost steering and braking. Had car towed for inspection. 13...

I have the common issue the 2006 Civic. My engine block cracked. There was already a class action lawsuit on this matter but of course it only went 10 years. Honda was in the wrong here. Why was this not a recall? I'm super frustrated. Car is available for inspection. It is at the Honda dealership right. Now.

ENGINE BLOCK IS LEAKING COOLANT. RIGHT REAR TIRE IS WEARING OFF.

THE BLOCK ON MY R18A1 HAS A HOLE, THEREFORE WE PATCH IT WITH JB WELD TO SEAL THE PROBLEM, BUT ITS STILL LEAKING.

THE ENGINE BLOCK HAS A CRACK LEAKING COOLANT. MY 16 YEAR SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR. CAR JUST SHUTDOWN HE ALMOST GOT HIT BY OTHER CAR. IT HAS BEEN A RECALL BUT THE DEALER SAID IT BEEN OVER 10 YEARS SO THEY WILL NOT FIX IT.

ENGINE BLOCK IS DEFECTIVE. HONDA HAS A 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCKS THAT START LEAKING COOLANT. MY CAR IS A 2006 AND THE WARRANTY WAS GOOD TO 2016. I AM DISAPPOINTED HONDA WILL NOT DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE. ATTACHED BELOW ARE PICTURES OF THE KNOWN LOCATION OF THE ENGINE BLOCK CASTING FAILURES.

REQUEST FOR ISSUANCE OF RECALL. 2006 CIVIC: ENGINE DOES NOT START, AND THE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM MAKES CAR INOPERABLE, ESPECIALLY IF THE BATTERY RECENTLY WENT DEAD AND THE ENGINE WAS JUMP-STARTED. THE DOME LIGHT IN MY CAR, 2006 CIVIC EX SEDAN, WAS LEFT ON THE AND BATTERY WAS DEAD, AND THEN CAR WAS JUMP STARTED. AFTER THAT THE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM PREVENTED THE CAR FROM STARTING. 1. THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN DESIGN DEFECT (HONDA DEFECT CODE: 03217) REPORTED IN MANY, MANY POSTINGS AND COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET, OVER MANY YEARS, FROM 2006 UNTIL RECENTLY, BOTH HERE IN THE U.S. AND IN THE UK. SEE EXTRACTS FROM NUMEROUS INTERNET REPORTS IN ATTACHMENT (INTERNET REPORTS - PROBLEM.DOCX). 2. THERE IS NO WARNING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM OR INFORMATION IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL FOR THIS CAR, OR ANY NOTIFICATION FROM HONDA, ON THE CORRECT WAY TO JUMP START THE CAR TO AVOID THE PROBLEM. SEE JUMP...

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RUNNING. AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FLUID LOSS. A LARGE PUDDLE WAS OBSERVED UNDER THE CAR. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THERE WAS A EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY MY VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS PAST THIS WARRANTY. I FEEL THAT THIS KIND OF ISSUE SHOULD NOT HAVE A CAP ON WHEN THE WARRANTY SHOULD END. THIS WAS A VERY WELL MAINTENANCED CAR WITH NO OTHER ISSUES.

THIS 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS LESS THAN 70K MILES ON IT. ON FEBRUARY 22, 2020, MY FAMILY DROVE ABOUT 8 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED A SMELL OF ANTI-FREEZE. WHEN WE REACHED OUR DESTINATION, WE CHECKED THE ENGINE AND SAW FLUID LEAKING ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. THERE WERE NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASH SO WE DROVE ANOTHER 8 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY TO TAKE THE CAR BACK HOME. WHEN WE PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE, COOLANT COMPLETELY EMPTIED ONTO THE GARAGE FLOOR FROM A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. WHILE WE FEEL THANKFUL WE WERE ABLE TO GET HOME SAFELY, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FAILURE IN THE ENGINE HAD WE BEEN DRIVING A LONGER DISTANCE. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ON THE INTERNET, 2006 HONDA CIVICS HAVE RECOGNIZED ISSUES WITH CRACKED ENGINE BLOCKS. THE COMMON FAILURE IN THESE ENGINES SHOULD WARRANT SOME TYPE OF RECALL AS THESE CARS...

WE BOUGHT A 2006 HONDA CIVIC IN 2013, ONLY TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP NOT DISCLOSE THE WARRANTY EXTENSION PUT OUT ON THE CAR IN 2010. WE WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT THAT CAR, AND BOUGHT ANOTHER. TERRIBLY DANGEROUS THE HAVE AN ENGINE BLOCK CRACK. THE BLOCK DID CRACK IN DECEMBER 2019. AMERICAN HONDA WILL DO NOTHING. PASSED THE WARRANTY EXTENSION.. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SAFETY RECALL. THE CAR WITH ONLY 129,000 IS GARBAGE AND WE ARE OUT MONEY. WE WILL NEVER BUY HONDA AGAIN. WE'VE BOUGHT AT LEAST 10 IN OUR 27 YEAR MARRIAGE. THE CRACKING COULD HAVE EXPLODED THE ENGINE!

I OWN A HONDA CIVIC THAT FALLS UNDER HONDA'S TSB 10-048. (2006-2009 ENGINE CRACK DUE TO A FAULTY PRODUCTION OF WEAK ENGINE BLOCKS) HONDA WILL NOT HONOR ANY SORT OF REMEDY BEYOND THEIR SECRET 10 WARRANTY FROM DATE OF PRODUCTION TO REPLACING THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A FAULTY PRODUCT! HONDA NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT AND CALL THE ISSUE WHAT IT REALLY IS, A RECALL!!

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC HAS A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. I WAS DRIVING IT HOME AND NOTICED THE HEAT RISING. GOT IT TOWED HOME AND THEN TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN INFORMED ME ABOUT THE ISSUE I NOW HAVE. TOLD THAT A CAN GET A NEW MOTOR. I CALLED HONDA TO BE TOLD THAT THEY EXTENDED THE FACTORY RECALL FOR 10YRS. AND WITH IT BEING 2019 ITS BEEN OUT OF DATE FOR 3 YRS NOW. SO ITS GOING TO COST ME MONEY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT THEY KNEW WAS CAUSING ISSUES FOR FOLKS.

ENGINE LEAKING COOLANT HONDA DEALER SAID BLOCK IT CRACKED. FOUND OUT LATER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 TO 2009. HONDA DEALER NOR HONDA CORP EVER NOTIFIED ME. THEY KNOWINGLY SOLD AND SERVICED MY CAR JUST RUNNING OUT THE CLOCK. I HAVE BEEN RIDING HONDA'S BEFORE I WAS DRIVING THEM GOING BACK THE THE 60'S. I HAVE TWO HONDA CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY NOW. MY COMPLAINT IS MORE THE THE COMPANY AND DEALER THEN WITH THE PRODUCT. I COULD NOT SELL THIS CAR TO ANYBODY NOW NOR SHOULD HAVE YOU. I STILL BELIEVE YOU MAKE A DEPENDABLE AND DURABLE PRODUCT BUT AM NO LONGER A ONE STOP SHOPPER.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND HONDA WOULD REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY IF IT WAS LEAKING. NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND ENGINE BLOCK STARTS LEAKING. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. ALL OF THESE AFFECTED ENGINES SHOULD BE REPLACED NOW!!! OR HONDA SHOULD BUY THE CAR BACK. NOW I'M WITHOUT A CAR AND STILL OWE MONEY. I CANNOT AFFORD THE $6,000 TO REPLACE THIS ENGINE. I CAN AFFORD 10%, BUT HONDA WILL NOT EVEN OFFER ANY DISCOUNT TO REPLACE AN INFERIOR PRODUCT THAT THEY KNEW HAD PROBLEMS.

MY 18 YEAR OLD SON WAS OUT OF TOWN WAS ON HIS WAY HOME ON A HIGHWAY. HIS HONDA CIVIC'S A/C BEGAN TO BE LESS AND LESS COOL. THEN HIS TEMPERATURE GAUGE QUICKLY ROSE AS FAR IN THE RED THAT IT COULD GO. HE PULLED OVER AND CALLED US. WE WENT TO PICK HIM UP. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF A LEAK UNDER HIS CAR BUT THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LOW. WE FILLED IT UP AND DROVE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY WE CHECKED THE ANTIFREEZE LEVEL AND IT WAS VERY LOW AGAIN WITH NO SIGN OF ANYTHING UNDER THE CAR. WE TOOK THE CAR IN AND THE ANTIFREEZE WAS LEAKING INTO THE OIL. WE HAD ONE OF THE CIVICS THAT HAD THE KNOWN ISSUE OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING AND THE ENGINE BLOCKS WERE CRACKING AROUND THE 100,000 MILE MARK. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN POTENTIALLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS MY SON DROVE...

TWICE WHILE DRIVING THE BOLTS TO THE TORQUE MOUNT AND ENGINE BROKE. AND THE CARS ENGINE FELL ON THAT SIDE. MAKING VERY LOUD SOUND AND THE CAR STOPED NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE. BOTH TIMES IT HAPPENED ON RESIDENTIAL STREET. HAD IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. THERE WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY CAUSED A VERY DANGEROUS LIFE THREATENING COLLISION. WENT TO PICK A PART LOOKING FOR THE BOLTS. DOING SO FOUND OTHER CARS THERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

THE ENGINE BLOCKED CRACKED. IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT. TSB 10-048. I AM OUTSIDE OF THE HONDA WARRANTY AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE CAR IS NOW VIRTUALLY WORTHLESS. I NOTICED A COOLANT SMELL. I STOPPED THE CAR AND SAW COOLANT LEAKING OUT. I TOOK TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THEY VERIFIED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE HONDA DEALER TO VERIFY THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE HONDA DEALER VERIFIED THE CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA OF AMERICA REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. BASICALLY I AM OUT OF LUCK.

WHILE DRIVING I CAME TO A STOP SIGN. SMELLED ANTIFREEZE AND SAW THAT MY TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS HIGH. I PULLED OVER AND THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING.I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO SHOP TO FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN MY ENGINE BLOCK. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. NO COOLANT LEAKS OR LOW COOLANT OBSERVED. JUST HAD OIL CHANGE THE WEEK BEFORE AND MECHANIC SAID THAT EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I HAVE MAINTAINED THE CAR REGULARLY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I FOUND THAT HONDA HAS KNOW ABOUT THIS SINCE 2013. I NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE OR WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALER FOR RECALL ON AIRBAGS AND SUN VISOR AND NO ONE EVER MENTIONED ANYTHING ABOUT A CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA SAID THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR REPAIR BECAUSE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I WASN'T EVEN AWARE...

CAR OVERHEATED AND CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK ON DRIVE TO WORK THROUGH TOWN. IT WAS A SUDDEN, OVERHEAT AND THE CAR STALLED. THE CAR HAD BEEN SERVICED BY HONDA ~2 MONTHS EARLIER. CAR HAD BEEN REGULARLY MAINTAINED BY HONDA, FOLLOWING SUGGESTED SERVICE SCHEDULE. HONDA KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BLOCK AS I PURCHASED CAR NEW IN 2006. CAR ONLY HAD 103,000 MILES ON IT.

CRACKED ENGINE AND IS NOT LEAKING COOLANT. NO DAMAGE WAS CAUSED. HONDA HAS POOR CRAFTSMANSHIP OF PARTS AND FAILED UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDIPTION. NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WITH A NEW ENGINE.

I PURCHASED MY CAR FROM A HONDA DEALERSHIP BACK IN 2014 AND AM THE SECOND OWNER. I WAS NEVER TOLD ABOUT THE CHANCE OF THE BLOCK CRACKING OR THAT HONDA WILL ONLY WARRANTY IT TILL 10 YEARS PAST ORIGINAL PURCHASE BECAUSE IF I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE NEVER GOT THE CAR KNOWING THAT INFO. THE CAR HAS ONLY 160,000 MILES AND I GET REGULAR OIL CHANGES DONE AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP.

CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. HONDA KNOWINGLY ALLOWED CUSTOMERS WARRANTY TO EXPIRE DESPITE KNOWING THIS IS A LIFETIME ISSUE. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A CITY STREET AS IT BEGAN TO OVER HEAT THEN PULLED OVER AND REALIZED THE CAR WAS LEAKING.

CAR HAS EXCESSIVE VIBRATING WHEN AT IDLE, AND WHEN PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE, STEERING ALSO VIBRATES MORE THAN NECESSARY.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACK. HONDA MADE A DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCK AND LEAKS COOLANT. THEY KNEW ABOUT PROBLEM AND ONLY OFFERED A 10 YEAR WARRANTY, LEAVING THE REST OF CUSTOMERS OUT.

ENGINE BLOCK CRACK! I AM THE OWNER OF A 2006 HONDA CIVIC LX COUPE AND MY ENGINE BLOCK HAS JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED BY A LOCAL HONDA DEALER SINCE WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A RADIATOR LEAK TURNED INTO MY WORST NIGHTMARE. THEY TOLD ME THAT MY ENGINE BLOCK HAD A CRACK IN IT THUS NOT BEING ABLE TO RETAIN RADIATOR FLUID. HE TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY ROUGHLY $4500US FOR THE REPAIR OF MY ENGINE. MY LOCAL DEALER ALSO TOLD ME THAT THEIR WAS AN UNPUBLISHED RECALL ON THESE ENGINES BUT THAT I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY.. I HAD NO IDEA THEIR WAS AN UNPUBLISHED RECALL ON 2006 TO 2011 HONDA VEHICLES. WELL APPARENTLY MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 3 YEARS. MY DISPUTE IS THAT HONDA FAILED TO LET IT'S CUSTOMERS KNOW THAT THEY INDEED FOUND ISSUES WITH THESE (06-11) ENGINES. I WOULD LIKE TO START...

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE SPUTTERED THEN LOST ALL POWER. IT WAS TOWED TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND THE COST OF REPAIRS WILL EXCEED THE VEHICLE'S WORTH.

MARCH 21, 2019 FOUND COOLANT LEAK ON DRIVEWAY COMING FROM 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE VEHICLE HAS CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK & LEAKING COOLANT. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 54,000 MILES, WELL KEPT AND MAINTAINED. DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUED IN 2013 & AGAIN IN 2015 FOR THIS PROBLEM. WARRANTY IS FOR 10 YEARS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. NO SUCH WARRANTY OR NOTICE MADE IT TO OWNERS ADDRESS. NO NEWS ARTICLES WERE MADE PUBLIC ABOUT THIS ISSUE. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA TO REQUEST ASSISTANCE DUE TO OUT OF WARRANTY OF THE VEHICLE. HONDA AMERICA ONLY OFFERED A DEDUCTIBLE TO REPAIR ENGINE AT $2,700.00. OWNER IS STILL APPEALING THIS AS THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT HONDA SHOULD OWN UP TO AT A 100%.

EXCESSIVE COOLANT LEAK CRACKED BLOCK NON DRIVABLE LESS THAN 140OOO MILES DISAPPOINTING NO WARNING WHATSOEVER

THE ENGINE BLOCK CRACK IS A KNOW ISSUE THAT HONDA HAS RECOGNIZED, BUT THEY ONLY ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON. VEHICLES STILL EXPERIENCE THINS FAILURE MINE INCLUDED, BUT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A REPAIR THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS AT FAULT FOR. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT IN THE HOPES THAT IT WILL BRING THIS TO ATTENTION SO A RECALL/OR AN ADDITIONAL EXTENSION CAN BE PUT INTO TO PLACE TO COVER THOSE STILL BEING AFFECTED BY THIS FAULT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.
