The issue with the engine start/stop button in Honda cars is a concerning matter that has drawn attention due to its potential safety implications and inconvenience for drivers. Reports have surfaced indicating that some Honda vehicles equipped with this feature may experience intermittent or complete failure of the engine start/stop button to function as intended. One notable manifestation of this problem is the inability to start the engine despite repeated attempts to press the start/stop button. In some cases, the button may become unresponsive altogether, leaving drivers stranded and unable to operate their vehicles. This malfunction poses not only a significant inconvenience but also a safety risk, particularly in emergency situations where the ability to start the engine promptly is crucial. The root cause of this issue is not always clear, as it may stem from various factors such as electrical failures, software glitches, or mechanical defects within the start/stop button mechanism itself. Regardless of the underlying cause, the consequence remains the same-?"an unpredictable and unreliable operation of a fundamental component in the vehicle's ignition system. For Honda owners experiencing this problem, it can lead to frustration and concern about the reliability of their vehicles, especially if the issue persists despite attempts to rectify it through repairs or maintenance. Additionally, there may be associated costs involved in diagnosing and fixing the malfunction, adding further inconvenience and financial strain to affected individuals.

Honda Civic 2014 - The right CV axle (drive shaft) was corroded and detached causing the vehicle to become immovable while in traffic. Fortunately, we were near a stop light and traffic was going slow and able to go around the vehicle without causing a crash. The vehicle had to be towed. This same issue is already a recall for the Honda Accord 2013-2015. We had this same thing happen to our 2013 Honda Accord at a major traffic intersection. Again, the vehicle had to be towed and repaired. The remaining side was replaced via Honda recall. We are asking that there be a mandatory recall of this issue for the 2014 Honda Civic as it is a safety risk. We are just lucky that both of these incidents occurred while near stop lights and no one was injured. However, there is one side remaining on our Civic that needs replaced and hopefully the recall will be issued before the car breaks down and causes a crash and possible deathly injury. We contacted Honda and they said we can take the car in for a diagnostic inspection at a personal cost to us of $100-$500 depending on the dealer. This is unacceptable.

Brake System, Power Steering System, ABS System, VSA System, and Hill Start Assist System lights randomly turn on all at the same time. This causes the car to jerk and have problems accelerating. Turning the steering wheel makes noises below the car. I've taken it to an independent service (shop) three times and they can't find out what is wrong. They have already refreshed the codes and checked the sensors. I changed tires and took it to auto zone, but shows no signs of any problems. The fact that it randomly turns on and starts causing all these problems, makes it hard and risky to drive anywhere. I've already had to tow it once because the jerking got so bad that pressing on the gas would not even drive/accelerate. Luckily there were not many cars near me and I was able to get far enough to find a safe place to park. I've read my blogs with people having the same problems. All have not been able to diagnose the problems and that's why they've turned to the blogs. Not knowing when these system warning lights will turn on makes it unpredictable to drive, diagnose, and fix.

In august 2022 I noticed a noise in my 2014 Honda Civic, I took it to my normal mechanic and was told the noise was coming from the transmission and it indicated that the transmission was failing. I took it to the local Honda dealership and was told they checked with Honda directly and there was no problem with my transmission and some vehicles just had that noise. At that time I had just over 52,000 miles on the car. In March 2023 I drove my car from IL to CO, about 200 miles from Denver the RPMs started fluttering and at one point the car accelerated without pressing on the gas. Shortly after the check transmission light came on. We got the car to a Honda dealer in Golden, CO and were told the transmission had an internal failure and had to be replaced. I paid a total of $8,600 to replace the transmission. I asked to have the old one back but was told that would cost $1,200. At this point my car had around 56,000 miles on it. Honda has refused to reimburse me at all for my transmission failing at such low mileage due to the car being 8 years old. I've researched and learned that Honda has a long term issue with their CVT transmissions yet did not take any responsibility for this failure.

On March 31, 2023 while driving on I 10 from Gulfport, Ms towards Diamondhead, Ms the glass sunroof exploded for no expiable reason. I observed no discernible reason for the glass sunroof failure. Other than being startled at the loud noise, and spending $ 480 for a replacement glass sun roof, there is nothing else to add. The loud noise might cause some drivers to loose control, and traffic safely might be affected. I called a Honda dealer, explained my circumstance, they ran my vin, and there was no recall. The glass failure is in the comprehensive insurance bucket, and with my deductible, the loss was an out of pocket expense. I used Dunaway Glass in Gulfport, Ms for glass sunroof replacement. I think think they were replacing a Honda glass sunroof the day I called to make the appointment, and my sunroof glass was one of two glass sunroofs ordered together. Please verify my recollection with Dunaway. There was no warning, in any manner, at all. The glass exploded and caused me to become distracted, there was no subsequent accident.

This vehicle's VSA modulator is faulty. Lots of people have issues with this system. HONDA instead of helping, they have monopoly on parts and no other mechanic will fix it because honda is not allowing them so they can charge 2000$ to fix faulty VSA modulator. It's absurd that consumers doesn't have choice to fix their car from a faulty part that can only be fixed at Honda dealership. Please investigate this, I think they're doing this intentionally because it's making them money and they have no one to compete. Other similar Hondas have same faulty vsa modulator as well. Thank you

Vehicle has been jerking and hard to steer at times so checked under the hood and noticed the Transmission fluid CVT Plugg was just laying there, on top of the transmission. I bought a new plug from Honda dealer, Bought CVT oil, filled up and a week later there it is again, laying ontop of the transmission. Filled it up once again and placed the CVTPLUG boot back! Reading through honda forums it seems this has been a problem. Hondas recalls for the transmission must of missed this one because the manufacture date was may of 2014. A concern for myself and family in the vehicle since this honda didnt give me a warning saying the fluid is low or plug is off, Major safety hazards considering the car can lock up on the highway and possibly life threatening. Can we please get some answers

While driving the car we had heard an explosion and glass shattering. We looked around and couldn-??t see any damage. I had pulled back my sunroof and saw it was completely shattered outwards, not inwards. My sunroof was made out of tempered glass, which these types of sunroofs have a tendency of randomly combusting.

I bought the car brand new in early 2015. Never had so much as a slip in the transmission. Got a recall notice in 2015 about a sensor for making the "check tire pressure" light stay on when starting the car. Honda tells me they fixed this in December 2015. On August 27, 2020, while driving down the road on a very dangerous highway, the transmission just stopped. No noise, no pop, no stutter. The car started decelerating and every error message known to man came on the screen. Check power steering, check tmp system, check engine, check transmission, etc. I was able to pull over, barely getting across the line and having to sit and pray for half an hour that the huge cars barreling toward me would not hit me. Got it towed to king Honda. A technician called five days later and said the transmission is shot. I can either pay $6000 for a transmission from Honda, or I can pay $2000 for a used transmission. He said the drive shaft pulley broke. I asked him about the recall number 15V574000 that says the software settings that control the transmission operation may result in damage to the transmission drive pulley shaft. He said there was no recall on my car. He said he'd talk to his manager and call me back. He left a message saying the transmission has come apart on the inside and I would need a new one. In the meantime, I'd called the dealer where I purchased the car. The man told me it was just something that happened. I asked about the recall. He said it had nothing to do with it. My husband called and the man listened to him and agreed that these things don't "just happen" to a Honda that is less than 100,000 miles with no notice, no problems, no noise. He agreed to have a look at the car and said if the drive shaft pulley is in fact broken, it would be related to the recall. We towed it tonight and will wait to see what they say.

For the third time in less than a year, I realized that the fill plug or dipstick of the cvt transmission keeps popping out of the fluid hole spilling oil all over the transmission metal case. The issues seems to be common among other Honda Civic 2014 owners. I notice that the issues is more commonly after traveling on a highway to long distances. The issue also causes the transmission to run dry after spilling all the fluid from the transmission. I believe is not a normal issue, and Honda should recall vehicles to fix the issue.

I have a 2014 Honda Civic with 136000 on the car that has a transmission problem starting. Some 2014 Honda Civic were recalled for a transmission problem yet my vehicle, 2014 Civic model miss the recall. All Civics have a pretty similar setup as far as the engine and transmission. As far as Honda goes they are known for there engines lasting a while and having no issues yet I have a transmission issue that is yet unknown and will cost at least 5K to fix. Over the past few days the cars ability to accelerate and downshift has gotten worse. This car has a automatic transmission yet when you slow down then go to accelerate the car jumps gears, you get the feeling as if you are on a motorcycle and it stalls and jumps forward. Along with that there's a slight noice that is working overtime. (incident occurs around 2mph-65)

To whom it may concern, I would like to report a safety issue with a vehicle. I am not the owner of the vehicle that I am reporting, but I was negatively affected by a fire that the vehicle caused. My vehicle was parked in a public parking garage on the 1st floor. Several hours after parking my car, a BMW X5 parked next to my vehicle. The owner of the BMW left their vehicle and turned the car off. However, while the owner was away from the car, the vehicle caught fire. The fire spread to 4 other vehicles including my vehicle ' the two vehicles on both sides of the car and two vehicles on the 2nd floor of the parking garage. My vehicle was destroyed as a result of this fire. The fire engulfed the passenger side of my vehicle and completely damaged the interior. With all the damages that my car sustained, it is not driveable nor is it repairable. My insurance has a better record of the complete damage to my vehicle. Upon, exploring this issue, I found that this specific BMW was listed as an affected vehicle for recall. NHTSA issued several recalls for parts of the vehicle that could catch fire even when the vehicle was not in operation. For example: Report receipt date: 10-30-2017 NHTSA campaign: 17V683000 manufacturer: BMW of North America, llc consequence: An electrical short can cause the parts within the PCV valve to melt, increasing the risk of a fire, even when the vehicle is not in use. This is a major safety issue and BMW should be more attentive and responsible about this issue. As a result of this, I have lost my car and will not be able to recoup the retail value of the vehicle. This incredibly unfair and BMW should be doing more to remedy this issue and help those who have been negatively affected. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
