The ac has went out on two occasions. The first occasion was due to the system needing to be recharged. The second being a hose was not connected correctly. The back tweeter speakers went out and had to be replaced. 3 audio updates needed to be done. While driving the car stopped accelerating and the car started shaking. There was no brakes or power steering at this time. Different codes started lighting up the dash. I was able to get the car stopped and off the road into the ditch area. It is currently at Honda.

When refueling my Civic there is a 50/50 chance it will over fule and not stop the gas pump. Sometimes gasoline will overfill enough to make it to the ground. I have been to the dealer about this twice, both times being told Honda is aware and investigating. This is a major safety hazard. What would happen if someone were to discard a cigarette, and catch that gasoline that overfilled and spilled out of the car on fire?

When fueling the vehicle it leaks this has been happening since I leased the vehicle and has progressively gotten worse it now pours out and down the side of the vehicle when fueling is complete. I have a video

If you have to brake suddenly, vehicle will not reaccelerate when pressing accelerator. You have to pump accelerator several times before it starts working properly again and vehicle resumes acceleration. This has almost caused me several accidents already. Very dangerous! especially for an inexperienced driver. Also, seatbelt locks up tightly and you cannot move upon sudden braking. You have to play with it for a while before it loosens up. This is also dangerous because you cannot look around to see your surroundings.

Daily maybe a few times a day when I attempt to accelerate from a stop the car hesitates for 1-3 seconds before the throttle responds. This is possibly dangerous because if pulling away when there is a limited opening to make it through the intersection it could cause accidents. I'm wondering if it has to do with the cvt transmission as my 2015 Honda Civic with cvt also had this issue from time to time. This issue happens daily and usually in the morning on a left turn about 3/4 mile from my home. Usually at the same corner daily in the morning but it does happen at other times throughout the day and I think it may be more common not long after starting to drive after having been sitting for a bit. I love Honda's and have had many of them but this issue needs to be taken seriously and resolved!

When refueling through the capless fuel system in California gas spills out when the pump automatically shuts off. I've refueled five times so far and each time it happens, no matter what orientation I have the pump or how far it's pushed in. There is a thread on a Honda forum with other examples of this here: www.civicx.com/threads/fuel-overfill.1505/
