I had rear brake driver side light change on Tuesday November 16, 2021 at the Hondas dealer Downtown Los Angeles. On Wednesday November 17, 2021 the 3rd rear brake light started a fire in my truck. The light bult overheated melted the cover, burned the fuse and my dress and suit in the trunk started to burn. It smelled horrible. I immediately called the dealer and Honda. The dealer made a diagnosis that the fuse burned but they cannot explain why or if it will happen again if it gets replaced. I am paying $496.62 to the dealer for repair but they cannot determine what cause it? I am very upset because my son is 2 years old and he seats in the rear. I am a single mother and I was dropping him to school when this happened. I don't imagine being exposes to fire or any safety hazard. The driver rear breake light was previously replaced on February of 2021. I found it strange and asked the dealer why is it being replaced too many time and just one side but they cannot explain why. I want an investigation or some kind of explanation why my vehicle catch fire. I dont know if Honda is manufacturing vehicles with faulty electric wire in the trunk causing fires and damages. I want to prevent future deaths. It was a very scary, stressful situation, traumatic experience. My dress has a hole and my suit inside the truck were damage expenses adding to $1,512.Please help me investigate this matter. Thank you.

Couple of weeks ago I was driving and the car kept going with full speed flying with no control to stop it. I did get to make the full stop of avoiding hitting the car in front of me. But I did get rear ended.

The contact owns a 2014 Honda Civic. While accelerating from a stop, the vehicle hesitated to shift into gear. The low beam headlights failed to illuminate the roadway adequately at night. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was left for diagnostic testing, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

When I started the car at dusk and tried to put the night-time headlights on, all the interior lighting went off. When I switched to daytime running lights, the interior lights went back on. Tested a few times, and every time the night-time headlights wiped out the interior lights.
