Passenger side window was stuck in the open position. Mechanic (aaa-listed) diagnosed master window switch, installed new oem master window switch. This week, Sept. 2014, less than a year after the repair, the same window is stuck in the closed position. I am reporting B/C 5 hours researching this issue online indicates the problem to be pervasive, ongoing and difficult to diagnose. Repairs can be very expensive, causing some owners to just leave the window closed. I can find no recalls from Honda. Obviously, an open window is dangerous B/C anyone can access the car or the driver. A closed window is dangerous if escape is necessary. I feel Honda should issue a recall and repair the problem. Thank you.

Manual transmission jumps while driving also does not want to go into second gear. Makes wierd grinding sound while driving slow. Car shutters and shakes violently while in 5th gear in excess of 70 mph. Car shuts off by its self( was told VIN not in sequence for ignition recall). Right front springs sticks and some times makes a ( " boing" ) sound. Car keeps pulling to right even after alignment. When heater or defroster are on they make a loud chirping sound. On cold or rainy days steam will pour out of engine compartment smelling like radiator fluid. Was in 2 minor accidents one front end colision one rear end colission both about 30 mph and air bags did not deploy. Engine is becoming rusty and coroded. Drivers power window is slow to go up and front seat belts will not retract. Engine light comes on and car loses power and gas mielage. Goes offf when gas tank is filled. Car has been to dealer numerous times for Honda scheduled service and also while it was under warranty. All the problems adressed above were told to dealer who said they could not find a problem..but they sure did when my warranty expired. Now they will not fix anyhting unless I pay for it.

After an expensive repair to the front driver's side power window (replaced both channel/runner and regulator/motor), I now realize that this is a fairly common problem with newer Honda. I have checked the NHTSA website and have located several similar complaints. In addition, I know of several other Honda owners who experienced the same problem and were forced to pay for the exact same repairs. I think that Honda should reduce the cost of their parts for this repair and investigate the problem with their front driver-side power windows.

Driver's side window of 2000 Honda Civic vp windows regulator broken. Window has been very difficult to wind up and down for 2 years. While searching for information on this I've discovered that it has been reported by several other people and also it's listed in the service bulletins. Since I'm no longer under warranty, I felt obligated to at least log a complaint so others may see that there's an issue here.
