CarComplaints.com Notes: Yes, the Honda Civic receives a lot of complaints because so many were sold. And sure, car parts only last so long and things eventually break. But it's never good to see this many transmission complaints, especially when the average mileage at failure is just north of 100,000 miles.
Especially when you consider that it's predecessor also has a nasty history with transmission complaints.

It just had to happen right at dusk. It was parked and someone noticed the taillight brake lights were on for no apparent reason. My friend's brother suggested in might be the brake pedal switch. When my friend went to the parts store to get the switch they told him (correctly) that the boot was probably bad too. This switch was not easy to get to. My friend ( who is over 6') had just about stand on his head in the dark to get under the dash to take stuff apart to get to it. I really would have thought it would have lasted more the 269,000 miles before it wore out or at least give me some sign it was bad.
