My son was critically injured in an accident in 2014 with this vehicle. He was on a country road and missed a sharp curve entering a field. The airbag did not deploy, the seatbelt did not hold and the seat back collapsed. He was ejected from the vehicle. This vehicle was totaled as a result of this accident and I have notified honda multiple times. I still receive recall notifications.

Tl* the contact owns a 2001 honda civic. The contact stated that while at a stop light, another vehicle crashed into the rear of the vehicle. The passenger's side air bag was the only air bag to deploy. The contact also stated that the driver's side seat adjusters became fractured during the crash, which caused the seat to fall in reverse. A police report was filed and the driver sustained internal bruising from the steering wheel. The driver also sustained a herniated and bulging disc in the neck, which required medical attention. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.

I am the original buyer of honda civic 2001 4dr and SRS light goes on frequently. As long as the car was under warranty dealer used to fix it without any charge. Last time in 2004 I got it fixed by the dealer. At that time car was out of warranty, but as the problem existed before the expiration of warranty they fixed it. Srs light problem reappeared in march 2007 , and when I took the car to the dealer, he said that problem was not the same. He stated that something was wrong in seat back sensor. *ak dealer is aware of the recall on SRS from honda...and now he is not willing to help me. I never had any accident. There is some inherent problem with SRS in this car. Dealer wants me to pay $600 to fix it. This the 6th time SRS light is on.

I have had my drivers side seat track replaced at least 5 times since I have owned the car. I have also have had both front struts replaced, both front springs, rear speaker, rear bumper repainted. I am trying to get rid of the car under the nj lemon law. To this day I have not been satisfied. This has been going on for more than a year.

Driver seat rocks back and forth under normal use. I've now had this repaired twice, once at about 10,000 miles and again at about 20,000 miles. The second time, a note was on the receipt noting a service bulletin but not what it said. Both times, paperworks says bushings were replaced. Not very happy with the idea of owning a car that has driver seat bushings requiring replacement every 10,000 miles after the warranty runs out. I notice this problem noted in service bulletin 01057 of this site.
