Unfortunately it is the second time it brakes the engine mounts. I have heard that many people have the same issue. I think it is a factory problem.

I was driving to work on a busy highway when I noticed the temperature gauge rise quickly past it's normal range. I quickly got off the road and shut off the engine. I had the car towed to the shop and the mechanic found that there was no fluid in the radiator. He determined that there was a small crack. He informed me that this is an issue with 2007 Civics. He told me I could put another motor in it or buy another car. The car has been well maintained and I had every intention to keep it for several more years. I am very disappointed that Honda did not inform me of the defects in the engine.

As many of the other people, I have a leaking coolant crack in the engine block due to poor casting, thus resulting in the car to dangerously overheat. I have visited a local mechanic and they have confirmed it is a faulty problem among many Civics manufactured that generation. The problem others and I encounter is the fact that the car exceeds the 10 year warranty. To make the dilema worse, the Honda manufacturing company does guarantee full recompensation. They suggest for one to go in for $100 + inspection that does not completely guarantee aid. The problems I encounter include: An ongoing leak of dangerous coolant liquids while driving/parked, excessive overheating of the engine while driving, and the tear down of parts(coils, cylinders, and spark plugs) due to unstable/worrisome high temperatures. I have overlooked many forums and threads of unhappy Honda drivers that are encountering the same problem as I have. The number of complaints found here have increased significantly in recent days. I plead/beg for your assistance! many of the people encountering this problem are of low income, few of which cannot afford repair costs and/or purchasing a new vehicle; we purchase these type of cars for their so-called reliability. In my case, I am a university student who vitally needs a source of transportation. One may argue that public transportation is the solution, but that limits my possibility frontier as I also have to work; public transportation costs time one could be using elsewhere. Truth of the matter is that this defect is potentially dangerous to the public. There is high correlation between engine overheating and accidents that are worrisome.

When I bought the car it had a blown head gasket. It was fixd, but yesterday the car died on freeway and temp guage shot up. After looking at oil dipstick, it was completely gone. It melted. I had an oil change on the 14th. Could they have forgot to put new oil in" what would cause my car to just die"

While driving on a highway the car started fuming with white smoke and it got inside the cabin of the car and the temperature gauge was at 100% all of a sudden and had to pull the car to the shoulder. It is a known manufacturing defect and Honda has a technical service bulletin 10-048. But I was never mailed about the problem and when contacted Honda mentioned they do not have to update me even though it is a known problem. Honda representative has been really rude and did not reply or rake my call for more than 10 days to reply about my case. Instead when she called she mentioned that its not their problem and they will not cover it.

I was driving and my car suddenly stopped in the middle of a very busy road, the vehicle started smoking while I was inside, it was so scary. I'm lucky that I'm alive. The vehicle was diagnosed by Honda with a cracked engine. Honda was fully aware of the engine block leak issue back in 2013. Instead of offering a total recall to fix the issue for all the running Civics, they simply offered a 10 year warranty, in case the problem surfaces. This is a safety issue and authorities should investigate how Honda is handling these complaints. They refused to take responsibility and stand by their customers.

Car began leaking antifreeze from the engine block. Honda admits that this is a common issue with this year as well as others but refuses to pay for repairs. I have appealed with american Honda to no avail. They do not care because the car is outside of its warranty even though they will admit that the engine is a defect by Honda. Car was parked at the time, has no damages, and has been properly maintained.

I was driving my 2007 Honda Civic on 8/17/19 when I noticed my vehicle temperature gauge increasing at a fast rate. I immediately pulled over and found out that my car didn't have any coolant. Thinking that this was the problem, coolant was filled in the radiator and I was able to drive the car home. However, less than a week later, the car began to overheat once again. After inspection, my car was out of coolant again. I took my car to ed napleton Honda in oak lawn on 8/26/19 and was told that the engine cylinder block was cracked and was causing a leak of the coolant which causes overheating in vehicles. Although this is a known defect in Honda Civic models 2006-2009, I was told that Honda issued two warranty extensions for up to 10 years and that my car was two years outside of the warranty. Because I'm the original and sole owner of the vehicle with great maintenance history, the dealership's service manager submitted a goodwill request to Honda corporate asking for the cost of repair to be covered. However, the request was denied by the regional Honda district parts and service manager. I escalated the situation to Honda corporate and found out from a customer service specialist that Honda did not send the letter informing me of the defect and warranty extension to my correct address. Furthermore, it was not an address that I had ever provided to Honda. After escalating my issue to the regional case manager, I was still refused any assistance. There are over 300 complaints about cracked engine blocks in 06-09 Honda Civics on the car complaints website alone. Many owners state that their vehicles began experiencing problems shortly after the warranty expiration. This questions Honda's knowledge of the longevity of the engine block and all parts involved. I appeal to NHTSA to investigate this ongoing matter and hold Honda accountable by enforcing a recall.

My car overheated. It only has 97000 miles on it. Guessing it's a engine block issue, cause mechanic can not figure out the issue and it keeps overheating, even though everything else is

Takata recall hi I am having several issues with the ignition not wanting to turn for several moments after putting the key inside to start my 2007 Honda xivic LX sedan and then all of a sudden the lights and power to the doors and windows work but car won't roll over to start. The car has been flashing a wrench like bar along with what looks like shape of the motor for 2 months as well ad I've just had an oil change done 4 days ago but yet it still reads oil life 5% B1 on the dash which won't clear nothing was wrong with spark plus or anything else under hood from valvoline's stand point when checked other than wipers don't never want to shut off as well.

- Homestead, FL, USA

My 07 Civic develop a long crack in the engine block. The Honda rep says it my problem because the recall campaign is over. Which I don't think is fair. Honda knew of the defect and not all Honda's develop this problem it's just us unlucky few that got the bad one's.

A couple days after purchasing a 2007 Honda Civic with 150,000 miles, it suddenly overheated while I was driving it and began smoking as I attempted to pull off the road. Upon examining the car, there was no coolant in the reservoir (despite adding coolant, the coolant levels consistently drop but there is no external leak). Fortunately, I was able to pull off the road in time. Honda recognized that the engine blocks for 2007 Honda Civics were defective (Honda service bulletin 10-048) but no longer covers repairs for the safety risk that their defective engine blocks pose to drivers of these vehicles and others on the road when their cars overheat.

- Gahanna, OH, USA

Has cracked engine block. This is a known problem by Honda for '06, '07',08 and some '9 Civic due to a manufacture defect on the block. Honda upgraded the warranty to 10 years from date of purchase. The crack occurs between 95K-110K miles. I have 101K on my car. I am out of warranty period therefore Honda has denied fixing my vehicle. Honda should have recalled instead of warranty period since it is a known problem and there are many of us who do not drive our car as much. I also purchased the extra warranty for piece of mind at the time of the purchase and Honda still will not budge.

Driving to work on expressway when engine began bucking and losing power. Fortunately, I was able to safely get off road and get to a service center where they diagnosed a lateral crack in the block. The car has 84,100 miles on odometer and is in otherwise excellent condition. The replacement of the engine costs $7,600 and I have paid for it. Looking for guidance on some recovery from Honda. Thank you.
