SRS Light on for a while in Honda Civic, Contacted Dealer as this car was messed with by another dealership last year during light swsitch recall, so wanted only other Dealership to diagnose the issue with SRS but diagnosis alone is $157 and since my auto mechanic cannot read the diagnosis Honda has put or installed this restricted setting on the car. Seat belts and seat bekt sensors may be bad and seat belt cant stick on driver's side, indicating a safety issue, Transmission exhibiting trouble and revs up when shifting, hard to shift gears with automatic gear shift problems. This should not be happening and brand new engine had to be competely installed with new engine blocks, and new radiator and watter pump need due to failing.

Progressive failing of the multiplex control unit, part # 38200-S5P-A11, for my 2002 Honda Civic hx 5sp has resulted in various problems that can prove to be very dangerous such as failure of turn signals, tail lights, windshield wiper motor, dashboard lights, dome light, power door locks, etc. Exactly when these failures occurred are hard to pin point but so far I have avoided property and bodily harm but not great inconvenience and repair cost. Please act to prevent this problem from causing harm or loss of life.

My car shouldn't car with an unprogrammed key. Meaning the chop is not programmed and it starts anyway. Without an properly coded key it shouldn't start period. But yet I can't use a dummy key which also defects the purpose. Meaning anyone can take my key. Take it to the dealership and make a cut and that's how cars get stolen. I still have the car. Also got to start it in the on position in the ignition in order to start it. If you don't and it's still warm. It'll keep cranking for a while than fire right up. It takes longer to crank when it's warm and when you turning it from zero to three and it'll crank longer but it won't if I start it in the on position.

Failure of headlights which may result in a crash. My headlights have failed, however only my high-beams work at this time. This resulted in extreme safety issues while driving on the highway at a high rate of speed and what could have become fatal crash. I have contacted Honda regarding this issue and was told my vehicle does not fall under this recall (recall info listed below.) I was told I would have to pay out of pocket to get my vehicle fixed, even though my vehicle falls under the exact specifications of their recall. I have small children and am in dire need of a safe vehicle. Please help. Recall number 04V086000 recall date 02/24/2004 component exterior lighting:headlights summary on certain passenger vehicles, the low-beam terminal on the head light wire harness can overheat and could cause the low beams to fail without warning. Consequence an unexpected loss of low beams could result in a crash. What owners should do dealers will inspect the head light switch and coupler for signs of heat damage.

Transmission - car died on the highway. Had it towed to the mechanic. Service code that appeared was P0730, and I need a new transmission. Car has 140K on it, is a 2002 Honda Civic, I'm the only owner, and I have serviced this car completely by the book. I just spent $1200 for the timing belt and water pump last month as a preventive measure, $150 on the battery in Jan 2017, tires <7K miles ago, brakes last Nov, and now a $5000 estimate given to me by the dealership in order for them to replace the transmission.

While driving the low beam exterior headlights go dark leaving the high beams operable. I contacted Honda about this issue and am being told that it was fixed back in 2004 and in the same breath also I am being told that it does not apply to my vehicle. Then I was told I have to pay to have a diagnoses done when there is a recall notice for this issue. This has happened quite a few times over the last few months or so but as it is the high beams were operable and I didn't bother too much until now. I was going for an inspection and as the vehicle is being tested for inspection the low beams would go on and off and not stay lit as designed failing inspection. After this is when I contacted Honda knowing there was some sort of recall on this problem. So now what do I do?

The SRS (secondary restraint system) light came on. It originally happened while the was under warranty with the previous owner. Under 36,000 miles. The Honda dealer where the car was serviced reset the light, replaced the seatbelt buckle but were unable to determine the cause of the SRS light coming back on. Multiple times. I believe this means the airbags are not working. Honda accepts no responsibility for this defect. And claim that since it occurred under warranty under the former owners of the car they are not responsible for fixing it.

In June 2012 I experienced on my 2002 Honda Civic an odd behavior, ac stopped working (light would be on but no cold air), power locks also failed, door chime/key left in ignition switchreminder stopped working at the same time, remote entry via key fob was somehow disabled and the most important and somehow terrifying experience is that the windshield washer and wipers do not work properly, I was splashed some muddy water on the windshield and activated the windshield washer/wiper to clear the muddy water; the wipers failed and my vision was completely blurred so I had to look out the drivers window and safely stop. I'm aware of two recall notices for my vehicle model year, one of them involving the low beam lights (I experienced that as well and thought both bulbs, low beams had gone out at the same time) this particular recall is for the defective and/or low quality of the electrical contacts/circuitry of the headlight switch. For a couple of weeks the electrical issue was gone but came back and has stayed, same electrical issues that I think might have something to do with low quality materials (as the ones used on the headlight switch recall notice) at the fuse panel inside the cabin; I'm no expert but my family's safety and the safety of the people on the road is my concern, what if the materials used on this unit (fuse panel/multiplex connector?) overheat and start a fire in the cabin or what I've experienced, a sudden splash on the windshield that prompts a quick response to stop due to null vision? I've searched online and seems the culprit of the electrical issues all at once is a poorly designed/constructed fuse panel. I should feel safe when driving not "taking a risk" hoping nothing bad happens.

My car was recalled by the Honda due to the front airbag inflator in this year. The Honda dealer helped us to replace it at August. But the warning light still be on after fixation. So I believe that the problem is not fixed.
