Civic Hybrid
- Automatic transmission
- 12,427 miles
After several days, Honda decided the main fault was the "KEY" I had to stop using the original key and use the back-up key because the computer-chip was not communicating with all the electronic components. It was a scary experience, that I hope never happens again. I was merging onto a major highway in good weather when this happened. Almost got rear-ended.

The dealer has tried 3x to fix the problem with no success. The Honda rep has been involved and they still cannot fix the damn car. The IMA, battery and engine light all come on and the hybrid system dies.

Civic Hybrid HYbrid
THis Civic Hybrid is a piece of crap. There's hardly a week that something doesn't happen to it. I've had problems with car cutting out, battery not charging, lights failing, and now a "bucking and jumping" engine! Its like having my own private amusement ride. Way to go Honda! Honda partners with Six Flags!
