I own a 2002 Honda Civic LX sedan which I bought new, and I have noticed a problem with the gas gauge being erratic, and I informed lodi Honda, and they said when it acts up to let a technician look at it, but it doesn't always happen. And by the time I drive to Honda they would say there is nothing wrong with it. I only have 22,500 miles on my car. I shouldn't have any problems and now my air conditioner makes a weird noise on occasion when I turn it on. Also, the gas mileage per gallon on the car when new is false it gets about 22-25 miles to the gallon.

Consumer brought vehicle in for warranty service on the air conditioning system which is not cooling properly, and because of two loose center air conditioning vents. Upon inspection, it was determined that the loose center vents were normal wear and tear. The service was provided to the air conditioning system but it is still not operating properly. The driver's seat was not securely mounted. The consumer was told that Honda is upgradng parts, and until they do so, nothing can be done to the driver's seat.
