Front driver's side coil spring broke. No accident/incident to cause it. Only 51,000 miles on car. I've never had a coil spring break on any car I've owned (including 17 year old Subaru with 131,000 miles. Seems to be a defective part from Honda. Curious if others have reported this issue.

My Honda 2010 Insight - vehicle rolls back after releasing brake going up hill. This intermittently happened since buying vehicle last year around 2/30/2015. Last year around the month of June - a roll-back caused vehicle to roll-back on a curb on right side and rear tire hit curb pretty hard. I confirmed later the bearing had a noisy sound after that (the vehicle always had a slight much lighter noise while driving). We heard a slight louder rubbing sound after that roll back on a curb incident. Dealership told me hybrids has slight noise due to battery electric sound. Months later after the roll-back bearing damage, I asked about issue with a mechanic shop, they told me issue sounded like bad bearings, and I was told to get shocks checked too. I was unemployed - and they told me most people can drive with bad bearings for a while. Here is more detail on the roll back - it happens, while moving foot from brakes to gas paddle. When the roll back happens - it's after I release brakes on a slop. I had to quickly hit gas or move quick to breaks again- due to sometimes I in stopped in traffic on a hill, and I can't hold the gas due to forward motion in stopped traffic, so while hold brake with right - I move my left foot to brakes and then right foot over gas - when able - move forward (and I release my left foot from brakes). My daughter drive more than me, and told me not to hit brakes to quickly or quick multi-tap & release brakes before I stop, she is right this issue happens less now that I slowly move foot from gas to brakes going up hill). That was when I learned to coordinate footing on a hill. I found it's sort of expensive to fix tire bearings at the Honda dealership, and my vehicle was over 70,000 miles at that time last year - from Honda. I am ready to get roll-back, and hopefully bearings fixed by Honda too.

My 2010 Honda Insight failed its safety inspection due to excessive wear on both front tires at approximately 17750 miles. The wear was not in the tread depth but in the rubber between the tread and the sidewall of the tire. The repair shop showed me the spots where the rubber was already down to the second layer. They encouraged me to take the car back to the dealer who only checked for tread depth and told me the tires were fine. I went back to the original repair shop and replaced the two tires and had a front end alignment done. The results of the alignment indicated that while both wheels were within spec, they were both at the outer edges meaning my wheels were facing like this\ /. I took the tires and the alignment report to the dealer and have heard nothing since but I receive a discount coupon for wheel alignment every month from Honda. I would have thought that I had a one of a kind problem but the repair shop has told me that they have found and corrected the same problem on multiple Insights in the past 5 months.
