2014 HONDA CIVIC Electrical System Problems

My car is BROKEN DOWN COMPLETELY. I take care of it extremely well! The transmission went. Out of no where. This needs to be apart of the recall for Transmission Software may Result in Pulley Damage. I’ve had to get the brakes and rotors completely replaced twice in a year and they need to be done AGAIN already. That’s not normal, for brakes to wear that fast. The electric seats do not work and there’s an issue electrically that the trunk keeps popping open I had to unplug it. The battery randomly kept draining over night for a period of a month, then started working regularly again. I want this car to be included in the recalls and I want assistance about my vehicle

While driving at high speed on the freeway at 65mph, my Honda Civic Hybrid experienced a sudden and complete electrical failure of the hybrid battery control module (IPU/MCM). This happened without any warning lamps, messages, or prior symptoms. The hybrid system instantly shut down, causing a dramatic loss of power and forcing me to pull off the road in high-speed traffic. This placed me and other drivers at serious risk of a high-speed collision due to the abrupt power loss and inability to accelerate. The failed component is still installed and available for inspection. The issue has since been diagnosed and confirmed by an independent hybrid specialist, who identified the malfunctioning IPU. I was told this exact failure is covered by Honda Service Bulletin 20-030, which extends the warranty for affected Civic Hybrids to 10 years or 150,000 miles, however, my VIN is not included, despite the failure being identical in nature. Honda has refused to provide any assistance, stating that only specific VINs are eligible, which I believe is misleading and unjust. This defect is clearly broader than the TSB acknowledges. The sudden failure of a critical propulsion system at high speed without warning is a major safety hazard and should not be limited by an arbitrarily narrow VIN list. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue and require Honda to expand the scope of TSB 20-030. This defect compromises driver safety and has caused me significant financial and emotional stress, not to mention the danger it poses to others on the road. This is not an isolated incident. Many other Honda Civic Hybrid owners have reported the exact same issue, sudden IPU failure, no warnings, dangerous loss of power, on public forums and complaint databases. The narrow VIN range in TSB 20-030 is artificially limited and fails to reflect the true scope of the defect.

About a year ago, the transmission failed costing us nearly $5000 to fix it. This incident happened approximately April of 2022, no warning signs at all. Now, the airbag deployed while merging onto the freeway without any impact which was the scariest thing. I’m very concerned there are other issues. There were no warning signs on both incidents.

ABS/VSA system module failing because of circuit board. Circuit board does not have all wires soldered onto system. Issue by manufacturer. This affects braking system, abs/VSA module, power steering and tpms sensors. Car is unsafe for driver and other vehicles on the road. Inspected by Honda and given code 123-11 for failing ABS solenoid. Highly dangerous.

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.

I was approaching a green light, and engaged the brakes to slow down. As I approached the light reaching approximate 10MPH. The car shuddered, and the alternator must have glitched again.The wheel cranked itself back and forth, causing the car to spin and turn into oncoming traffic. This issue has been recalled for this vehicle but not this VIN. I have notified 3 Honda repair shops of this issue, and have been turned away. The problem is with the electromagnet in the electric steering column. It is well documented, and I have video of several instances of thi issue occurring. Additional witnesses of the problem are available. And the incident itself resulting in property damage and bodily harm. Honda was made aware of this problem on multiple occasions, and did nothing to remedy the problem.

Push start button clicks and doesn't turn the engine on. Countless attempts can be made without a different result.

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

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 $1,512.00.Please help me investigate this matter. Thank you.

AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, CAR DEVELOPS A ELECTRICAL DRAIN TO BATTERY. BATTERY WILL SLOWLY DISCHARGE UNTIL DEAD OVER 2-4 DAYS. NOTHING ABOUT THIS OR HOW TO PREVENT THIS IN MANUAL. NOTHING IN MANUAL ON HOW TO CORRECT.

THE ACCESSORY POWER OUTLET FAILED WITHOUT TRIPPING THE FUSE. THE OUTLET FAILED AFTER AN AIR COMPRESSOR, THAT HAS BEEN USED IN 5 OTHER VEHICLE MODELS WITH NO ISSUES, WAS CONNECTED TO INFLATE THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AT THE DEALERSHIP, PIAZZA HONDA OF POTTSTOWN, PA. I REPORTED THE CONCERNS VIA AN EMAIL TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. SEARCHES ON THE INTERNET CONFIRM THAT OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. THERE ARE TWO SAFETY CONCERNS. 1 - THE POWER OUTLET BURNING OUT BEFORE THE FUSE TRIPS COULD LEAD THE AN OVER-HEATING AND WEAKENING OF WIRES RESULTING IN A POTENTIAL FIRE AND 2 - THE DEFECTIVE POWER OUTLET CAN LEAVE A MOTORIST STRANDED IF THE TIRE CAN NOT BE RE-INFLATED OR KEPT AT PROPER INFLATION LEVELS.

I HAVE A LEASED 2014 HONDA CIVIC EX, MY LEASE BEGAN 11/2014. IN 9/2016 I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45MPH ON A SIDE ROAD WITH SPEED LIMIT 45MPH WHEN MY CAR LOST POWER TO THE GAS PEDAL, I COULD FLOOR IT WITHOUT ANY RESPONSE, AND NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON (POWER STEERING, VSA, HILL START ASSIST, TPMS, EMISSION, TRANSMISSION, ETC). I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO SAFETY AND WAIT FOR A TOW. UPON ARRIVAL AT HONDA, THE CAR WAS 'BACK TO NORMAL' AND THE TECHS COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM SO THEY CALLED IT A FLUKE AND RETURNED IT TO ME. 2 WEEKS LATER I WAS JUST LEAVING MY HOUSE, ABOUT 5 MPH OUT OF MY SPOT AND UP TO A STOP SIGN, AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SAME HONDA AND WAITED. I WAS TOLD A WEEK LATER THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO KEEP LOOKING. NOT HAPPENING AS IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. I IMMEDIATELY OPENED A CLAIM WITH HONDA. THEY LOOKED FOR A WEEK MORE WITH NO LUCK AND WERE ABOUT TO RETURN MY DANGEROUS AND UNDIAGNOSED CAR TO ME WHEN IT HAPPENED FOR THEM; I AM UNAWARE OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES. THEY KEPT IT ANOTHER TWO WEEKS WHEN THEY GUESSED IT WAS A FAULTY COMPUTER AND PUT A NEW ONE IN IT. FAST FORWARD TO 2/2017 AND IT HAS HAPPENED YET AGAIN. I WAS GOING ABOUT 7 MPH IN A PARKING LOT, PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN, AND ABOUT TO TURN ONTO A 50 MPH, 5 LANE ROAD WHERE I FOR SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT HAD IT OCCURRED THERE. IT HAS BEEN TOWED TO HONDA AND I HAVE ZERO INTENTIONS TO TAKE THIS DEATH TRAP BACK, AND I HAVE EVEN LESS FAITH THAT AN ACTUAL PROBLEM WILL BE FOUND YET AGAIN. THE ATTACHED PHOTO SHOWS THE LIGHTS ON THIS MOST RECENT TIME, TAKEN WHILE IN PARK. YOU CAN SEE THE LIGHTS ON, D LIT UP WHILE IN PARK, AND THE NEEDLE AT 1 EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT MOVING.

AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR 1 MONTH THE TIRE LIGHT CAME ON SAYING FROM THE COMPUTER ON THE DASH "CHECK TIRE PRESSURE." I WENT TO WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR TWICE AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TIRES AND THEY SHUT THE COMPUTER SYMBOL OFF. THEN 3 MONTHS GOES BY AND IT COMES ON AGAIN, I BROUGHT IT IN AND THEY CLAIMED "THERE WAS A SMALL LEAK IN THE TIRE." MAJESTIC HONDA FIXED IT?? AND MADE ME PAY $100.00 FOR THIS. NOW IT IS JUNE 29TH, 2015 AND MY LIGHT WENT ON AGAIN AND IN ANOTHER TIRE IT WAS LOW. THE TIRE WAS ACTUALLY LOW AND I HAD TO PUT AIR IN IT. I WILL BE TAKING THE CAR BACK TO MAJESTIC BUT I THINK THAT #1 THE FIRST FEW MONTHS SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE COMPUTER, I DO NOT THINK THERE WAS ANY LEAK IN THE TIRE, I LOOKED AT THE TIRE AND I DID NOT FIND WHERE THEY "FIXED THE SMALL LEAK." NOW IN ANOTHER TIRE IT IS GOING FLAT. I HAVE READ THAT YOU HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRES AND I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS. YOU HAD A RECALL ON CERTAIN MODELS BUT NOT MINE, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TIRES AND YOUR ELECTRICAL WITH THE TIRES. PLEASE CALL ME BACK AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. I DO NOT THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THESE TIRES WHEN THEIR WAS A RECALL AND MAYBE YOU MISSED MINE. ALSO MY FRIEND BOUGHT THE EXACT CAR I DID AND HER LIGHT "CHECK TIRES" GOES ON CONSISTENTLY.

INFLATE TIRE LIGHT WENT ON IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS OF DRIVING. LEARNED FROM PARTS MANAGER THAT THIS IS COMMON AND A SOFTWARE ISSUE. NO FIX RIGHT NOW. HANDS FREE CALLING WORKS ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. NOT SAFE TO USE WHILE DRIVING AND FRUSTRATING THE OTHER HALF OF THE TIME. HONDA CORP. SAYS THIS IS COMMON AND WE NEED TO GET USED TO IT ONLY WORKING SOMETIMES. MILEAGE ON STICKER SAID 30MPG CITY / 39MPG HIGHWAY. I GET 22-23 MPG ON SUBURBAN STREETS (NOT SHORT CITY BLOCKS). THIS IS WORSE THAN MY 2001 HONDA ACCORD THAT I TRADED IN FOR THIS CIVIC. ONE OF THE REASONS I BOUGHT THE CIVIC VS. THE ACCORD WAS DUE TO THE GREAT MILEAGE I WAS ASSURED I WOULD GET ON THE CIVIC. NOT EVEN CLOSE. I AM A LOYAL HONDA OWNER FOR THE LAST 25 YRS. THIS IS MY 4TH HONDA AND IT WILL BE MY LAST. I VIEW THIS CAR AS A LEMON. NO CAR (ESPECIALLY A HONDA) SHOULD NEED TO BE FIXED IN THE FIRST 24 HOURS OF OWNERSHIP. IT'S BEEN TO PAULY HONDA 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS OF OWNERSHIP. THEY HAVE BEEN VERY DEFENSIVE. BEWARE. HONDA DOES NOT MAKE THE CARS THAT IT USED TO MAKE. *TR
