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.
Was reaching to release emergency brake & noticed button was not on vehicle. Took to dealer after having emergency brakes released. Was informed by mechanic entire emergency brake system needed to be replaced.
1996 Honda Civic dx experiences sticky acceleration, must apply considerable pressure to accelator when stopped which causes car to lunge forward. This was reported to dealer while under warranty and appeared to be corrected, but condition reappeared. Car was recalled for fuel throttle and repaired, but this did not correct the sticky accelerator. The emergency brake does not engage most of the time. The button to release the brake stays in which keeps the brake disengaged. The windshield whistles at road speeds.
