Air conditioner in my 2016 Honda Civic has never worked. Condenser or compressor needs to be replaced continues to leak throughout system and is defective. Emergency Brake malfunction does not work and poses as a safety issue. Left head lamp doesn-??t work due to excessive heat exposure in Nevada.
I have been experiencing multiple electrical issues since about 6 months after purchase with brake light bulbs repeatedly burning out along with every system icon on the dash flashing off and on while driving the car it will not start always and at times it will not open with the key or the remote fob all being taken in to shops for repairs and within weeks I can be back to the shop with yet another so called fix this recurring problem is a big safety issue
I bought a Honda Civic 2016. I notice that my front led light maker does not work only left side work and it is about to go out too. Sometime it goes on as its please. And air condition does not blow cold air. I hope they recall all these problems..
I have issues that have been reported previously and while the vehicle was under warranty. Now that the warranty is out the problem has been more severe. The 1st problem is the display for the radio, heating and cooling and the speed display has been effected some but not like the radio and cooling/heating display. It has gone blank, it has froze up. It has lost all functioning. The 2nd is the air compressor. It has a leak and apparently this is an issue with a lot of the tourings. People have replaced them and had the same issues. The displays have had problems both in drive modes and parked. I have googled on how to fix those issues and we have disconnected the battery to do the same. The cooling/heating system cools some times but not all the time.

My vehicle break some time docent work....lighting is not proper and engine does nice even I do servicing and mention them but it got ignored by service center
Following my wife after a recall on her car, it began to rain lightly. Knowing we were entering a 75mph turnpike, I phoned her to advise her to turn on her lights. She did. At the stop light before getting on the turnpike, all I could see were 2 tiny led bulb types on both sides. As she began to reach speed, she got 10-15 car lengths ahead of me. We knew the factory spoiler causes a vortex behind her car as we wipe off black powder that builds on the back of her car each day when she comes home from work. I've never driven behind her let alone in the rain. With the vortex creating a boiling spray, and the tiny led bulbs, I could not see her at all. Just a spray. No lights. At our exit close to home, as she took off, I could not see her tail lights even 5 car lengths back. It was day time I forgot to mention but cloudy and as stated, light rain. I could see her brake as the brake lights use a common bulb. Again, with the lights in the on position, the only time I saw her tail light was in the garage. The vehicle has two issues. The spoilers create a spray of water reducing visibility of the backbof her car in the rain or fog to zero. Honda even shows photos with their lights on. Tiny angled led's pointing up and in. And not nearly bright enough to be seen in rain. Heavy rain or dense fog, could be catastrophic. My wife drives I-40 & I-44 to and from work daily. 13 miles. She's had the car just a few months. I am concerned each morning. She currently leaves when it's dark. I'm worried about the spring rains and dawns early light wheather she will be seen. As stated earlier, the spoilers cause the turbulence or vortex behind the car. The lights are too small and lumens not strong enough to be seen. Photos below will show on city streets and in our driveway. The photos I took from my phone the last few blocks home and into the garage. This is bad! she loves this car
The cover on the third brake light has fallen off. The Honda dealership has tried to fix it four times and now says there is nothing they can do because this is a known issue at Honda and there is no fix. This is a serious safety issue. There is no way to see out the back window in the dark or when condensation is on the window, if the brake is engaged. All you see is a reflection of the brake light. Without the backup camera, the car would not be drivable. This occurs when stationary or in motion.
The cover for the reverse light, rear window, of the 2016 Civic has dropped and after repeated attempts trying to get american Honda to correct, still has not been fixed. The cover can't be removed as the reverse light is too bright and makes it impossible to see out the rear window at night. During the day, the cover obscures objects/cars in the rear view window.
The 3rd brake light that's on the inside of the rear window (I have the coupe) has a cover which keeps the light directed outside of the car and attaches to the window. The glue holding it to the window isn't strong enough, so the cover hangs down, blocking some of the rear window, reducing visibility. Also, at night the light itself washes out the rear window, making it difficult to see out the back at all. This problem is affecting 100% of the 2016 coupes that have ever been out on a warm day (heat melts the glue), and Honda isn't fixing it. They've been stringing us along for 5 months now, promising a fix in "a month" or "a couple weeks", with no resolution. Last I heard, they said on November 7th that it would be released in 8-12 weeks. It feels like their plan is to just keep this up until people super glue the casing to the window themselves or decide badgering Honda about it isn't worth it anymore. Please make them fix their problem.
The third brake light cover (inside top center of rear window) on my 2016 Honda Civic coupe is loose/drooping/falling off on the back passenger side with right-rear of cover separated by about 1/4" gap from inside of rear window. This condition has existed since I purchased the car on September 30, 2016. This allows distracting light leak while driving at night and impairs visibility through the rear window. Based upon information online Honda does not yet have a fix for this even though it has been widely reported occurring on the 2016 Civic coupes since June 2016..
The housing that surrounds the third brake light is not fully affixed to the rear interior window. The housing just bouces up and down and red light floods the back window when the brake is applied. This situation makes it difficult to see out of the back window at night.
Cover for center brake light keeps coming loose, obscuring rear window and flooding interior with red light when brake is applied at night. Known issue, but dealers do not have guidance on how to permanently fix it.
The high-mounted brake light cover, mounted on the rear window, has detached itself from the window. This has resulted in a loss of visibility due to the plastic cover blocking important visual information from outside the car. In addition, red light from the brake light illuminates the rear window, making it almost impossible to see outside at night. I report this to the dealer (roberts Honda in downingtown, pa) who said that "all Civic coupes have had this problem, Honda America is aware, but has not provided a fix"
The cover on the third brake light at top center of the rear window on the coupe version of this car does not stay adhered to the window. This causes a safety issue I visibility in the rear view mirror. Besides reducing visual sight area. At night the red light upon brake application is both distracting obliterates any other viewing out of the read window. Dealer attempt to fix was unsuccessful. Part needs to be redesigned for better installation method than double sided tape on the edge of the part. Many other coupe owners have complained online about this issue.
3rd rear brake light cover on 2016 Civic coupe came loose and when brakes are used 3rd brake light reflects on rear widow causing visibility problem at night. Also cover flaps against window when windows of car are open.dealer tried to glue cover it lasted 15 minutes. They said the currently have no fix. Honda needs to fix this design flaw problem especially since this is a safety issue.
Third brake light cover will not stay up. This causes a visibility issue when driving at night or in rain, as the reflection from the red light covers the entire back window and reflects in the side mirrors. You cannot see. It does not matter if the temp is hot or not. Leased in Ohio end of June and was like that then, as were all coupes on lot. Dealer said they could glue in Ohio. Called another dealer he said not to do that, would void warranty. Car now with son at college in Florida. Called dealer there, knew nothing. This is a hazard driving and I want it documented, as pretty much all other 2016 Honda coupe owners do, that if this causes an accident, there have been plenty of complaints at Honda service departments about. There is a forum that has pages of the same complaint and attempted fixes, but none work. It even states that since July 2016 Honda is working on a fix. This is a danger and needs fixed asap.
The 3rd brake light on my new Civic has been repaired and replaced twice and it will not stay covering the brake light, poses a safety hazard while driving as it hangs down and at night the brake light shines thru the windshield will be taking back to dealer for third time to try and rectify.
