This Problem Across All Years
Continental P 195/65 R 15. 89 H. The tire blew and the side wall on the outside on the passenger side front. It looks shredded on the side- not a normal blown tire look. We were in the right lane on a 3 lane highway so we were able to get off as soon as it blew. Our safety was at risk because we had to change tire on the side of a busy 3 lane highway and it was late on a sunday night so nothing was open to replace and had to drive 70 miles back home on a donut. It could've caused an accident. No known issues/warnings/messages/etc. I will never buy another Continental again.

I HAD TURNED INTO A SHOPPING CENTER NEAR MY HOME AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR AND HIT THE CURB. I WAS GOING ONLY ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH AS YOU CAN'T GO TOO FAST INTO A TURN WITH A MANUAL CAR WITHOUT STALLING. I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING AND CHECK THE AREA WHERE THE BLOWOUT OCCURRED AND THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROAD. THE TIRE BLOWOUT ALSO CAUSED OTHER DAMAGE TO MY CAR. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP SINCE IS WAS A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I JUST PURCHASE APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AGO AND THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 3500 MILES. I EXPLAINED TO THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND ASKED IF THEY COULD LOOK INTO THEIR BEING AN ISSUE WITH THE TIRE AND THEY REFUSED TO LOOK INTO THE POSSIBILITY OF A TIRE DEFECT. THEY TRIED TO BLAME ME FOR THE TIRE BLOW OUT CLAIMING THAT I HIT SOMETHING TO CAUSE THE BLOWOUT. NOW, I AM FINDING OUT THAT OTHER CARS MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR WERE RECALLED DUE TO A FAULTY TIRE. I AM FRUSTRATED AND NOT SURE HOW TO GET SOMEONE TO LOOK INTO THE TIRE ISSUE. I NOW HAVE AN UNEXPECTED EXPENSE FOR REPAIRS ON A NEW CAR. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE OF THE REPAIRS OR THE IMPACT TO MY INSURANCE BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS BEING CONSIDERED AN "AT FAULT" ACCIDENT. *TR

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
