I owned a 2006 Honda civic, there was a problem where the air conditioner (a/c) condenser was located. It seemed that many people were experiencing this problem. The a/c in the car was not working, brought to Honda, they told me that there was a hole in the condenser from road debris. This was a design issue and should be under warranty. Therewas no protection on the grille. The grille was wide open.
main problem is with the engine light coming on periodically and suspension noise in front and back. i have repeatedly taken the care into honda and they go through a multiple step process of denial and attempts to run out my warranty.

i purchased my honda civic brand new in february of 2002. i had my right front strut replaced the first time on april 8, 2003. i had to have the same right front strut replaced again on february 22, 2004. my car went out of warranty in 2005, however i still noticed that the automobile did not seem to handle bumps/holes in the road very well, shaking and rattling with every one. being a fairly young driver, and this being my very first car, i did not realize that this was an actual problem - i just thought that it was the way the car handled. i had the car looked at for another reason not too long ago and was informed by my mechanic that this was not normal and was due to yet again a suspension/strut problem. i have encountered several honda civic owners, especially within this particular generation of civic that have had the same problem as i have. i believe the parts to be defective. *tr

the peeling metal plating on the interior door handles causes cuts to fingers and hands. they range from severe paper cuts to deep finger cuts. the chrome plating on the interior door handles peel and create sharp edges that cut and draw blood. this occurs when the door is opened. our whole family had cuts especially my daughter.
