This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The vehicle stability assist (VSA), the electric power steering (EPS), the TPMS and the brake warning lights were illuminated.

Additionally, the contact stated while driving 50-65 MPH, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The contact was able to continue driving by using physical force to steer the vehicle. The contact stated that he arrived at the residence, parked, and turned off the vehicle; however, upon restarting the vehicle approximately 6 hours later, the failure persisted.

Airbags deployed in an accident (minimal impact/superficial damage) & deeply lacerated my right thumb. No warning lamps or symptoms of the problem prior. Car to be inspected by insurance claim adjuster & available for inspection.

I have a Honda Civic 2017.I left the car un the dealer tiday because the car have "break system issues".Is almost a new car and already hace problema whit the poster bbrake system.How is possible?
My car alarm randomly started going off while parked for three days, three different times of the day. The last time it happened back to back at 2am while parked. I tried turning it off with my key fob and it would not register. I opened the car with the key in the fob and pushed the start button, the engine started and I remained parked. Then I tried turning the car off but it would not turn off, instead the lights flickered on the dash and the car stayed on. I tried it 2 more times and it finally turned off the engine but not the dash. All the warning signs came on the car including a break systems error and a tire pressure error. After this, I took the battery out of my fob and now the car battery is dead. I powered up the battery today but the car won't start. The dash turns on but then it just flickers and gives me all the same warning signs. I found there were recalls for this issue on 2016 Civics and that the recall should be extended to 2017 and 2018 Civic as well. Mine is a 2017 civi and it's having all these issues that could be deadly if they happen on the freeway.
Started driving when several warning labels came on that included brake system problem, emission system failure, hill assist failure, and power steering problem able to drive around block using brakes, normal power, running fine. Got into drive way brakes not working almost running into garage door. Shut of car, unplug battery, and wait to reset computer. Plug battery back on work for 4 days then did it again. Lucky I wasnt driving faster and there wasn't a child in front of car when brakes quit working. Some one is going to get run over if this computer/ software is not fixed. It shouldn't come to that.
The Honda sensing brake system seems to more annoying than helpful. Even adjusting the different sensor lengths isn't helping. Often, the car starts to brake when it is not needed. A few days ago a car in front of me decided to make a U-turn at a left turn arrow that said no U-turns. My car decided to slam on the brakes because they were a little in the way. It gets worse: I could not override the brakes when I stepped on the gas petal to move forward after the car was completely out of the way. I was stuck in place for longer than necessary. The car behind me almost hit me! I don't mind if the sensing system notifies me with beeps, bells, and whistles. Just don't brake for me!
This happened to me three times in three years. Suddenly an error message pops up saying "electrical parking brake problem". the first two times it went away after I fiddled with electrical parking and the error message went away. The third time, couldn't start the car as the brake pad doesn't move at all. Car was stationary and it happened in a parking lot.
After parking in my driveway, placing the parking brake on, turning the engine off and existing the vehicle, my parking brake gave out about 15 minutes later. My car rolled down my short driveway. Fortunately, I was close by, hopped in the moving car as it reached my street and manually pushed down the brake. As I restarted the vehicle, the parking brake signal showed the parking brake was still engaged. It appears the parking brake is defective. The parking brake should not (and cannot) release. Ever. If I were parked on a public street, I could have harmed another vehicle or pedestrian.
Driving along highway speed and the car brakes abruptly and the accelerator pedal was unresponsive. If this would have happened at rush hour, this would have caused a pile-up. If this would have happened in front of a semi, I might be dead. I moved across two lanes of traffic with no throttle control. The car regained throttle response after about 45 seconds.
While driving my car will put the brakes on if another care passes me on drivers side. This did it for a few weeks, then the collision mitigation system light came on and will not clear. Cruise will not work. This has happened before, but never with light staying on.
The car brake stop working when the warning sign came on. I was driving on the highway upon getting off the high on a ramp the brakes froze I wasnt able to apply brakes for about 40 seconds because it became stiff. That's when the warning sign came on. This wasnt my first report on this problem
Numerous NHTSA reports have been to waste as nothing is done. This 2017 Honda Civic ex hatchback continues to have electrical glitches since bought new in Dec. 2017. No problem (s) found. No codes. Unable to duplicate. Etc. Etc. Honda refuses to deal with this defective vehicle & servicing Honda dealers do not want this piece of crap Honda in their shops. Honda claims they have legal right to cancel all new vehicle warranties on this vehicle & owner cannot do anything legally about this. No us federal Agency has any control what Honda does in the us. Honda has become arrogant & abusive towards Honda customers & does not care.
The vehicle would stall randomly and take up to a few hours to restart. The infotainment system in the center stack had to be fully replaced due to buttons being pushed by themselves. Lastly, emergency brake failure sign on dashboard but brake was working fine.
Every now and then there will be brake proble while im driving car will stop in the for no reason.lastweek as I was reversing the car had an error stating electric parking brake problem and it wouldnt move. I shut the car off thwn turn it back on it went away as I was driving the error appears again while I was driving the car started to slow down so I pulled over in a parking lot and turn it off and waited
