Civic

  • 20,000 miles
2007 Honda Civic with 20,000 miles was making a loud noise on the highway. Sound was coming from rear of car. Took car to dealer and recommendation was made to replace rear control arms. Repairs could not be done on a timely manner because dealership will not be able to get parts for several days. Problem has likely resulted in uneven tire ware, which may cause handling difficulties and possibly a crash, but dealer wanted us to drive the car home under these conditions. After insisting, we were given a loaner car.

2007 Honda Civic coupe rear tires wear out prematurely due to a geometric design flaw. The vehicle shakes and pulls due to this problem. Dealer would not provide Honda recommended repair until advised that I knew of the issue. Then they agreed to the repair under warranty but not the damaged tires. Honda has it as a service bulletin #08-001. "not a recall" they will not do anything about the damaged tires.
