Fuel system, other: storage: tank assemblyReported November 1, 2007 · 6,545 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain compressed natural gas (cng) vehicles, in the event of a severe interior fire in the area of the rear seat, the cng tank may be heated unevenly, preventing the pressure relief device from venting the contents of the tank as designed.
Risk
This could result in a tank rupture, explosion, and ejection of the tank from the vehicle.
Remedy
Dealers will install a heat insulator material to the rear seat back. An interim owner letter was mailed to owners beginning november 26, 2007. When parts are available, owners will be renotified asking them to bring in their vehicle for repair. Owners may contact honda at 1‑800‑999‑1009.

Vehicle would not start. Car engine cracked which is a safety issue and known issue to honda for this model and year of the civic. I had my three kids, including an infant in the car. Took it to honda where they explained that there was an extended warranty that we had just missed. My car is in impeccable shape with low mileage (80,000). Honda refused to cover the engine crack in full (expecting us to play 3,000), stating that we were not loyal honda customers as our other car was a toyota. The car had recently been serviced by honda and the airbag recall was fixed. At that point, they should have communicated to us regarding the engine and the changes to warranty based on the known issue.

On august 31, 2017 while I was driving on the highway, the car stopped running and smoke came out of the hood suddenly. Fortunately I managed to pull over the car to a safe place immediately beside the highway otherwise I would have been in a fatal situation. I had the car towed to the dean honda at pittsburgh where they performed the diagnosis to find the root cause of the problem. They identified that there was crack in the engine block which has caused the coolant to leak from the engine and hence overheating of the engine has happened. They told me that the engine has to be replaced and few other parts as well (like spark plug etc.) to make the car running again which would cost me around $4000. I did some research over the internet regarding this issue and found that most of the 2006 to 2009 civics had the engine crack issue and tsb 10-048 was issued and the warranty of such engines were extended to 10 years and that would cover the replacement of the engine if such issues are found. I checked with my service consultant at dean honda if this would be covered under the extended warranty. He did a VIN inquiry and said the warrant has expired 10 days ago and this won't be covered. (the original purchase date of the car was 22-aug-2007 and this incident happened to me on 31-aug-2017). This is a big blow to me. This is my first car in the us. I bought this car as the second owner in july 2015 with only 36000 miles on it and I have hardly driven 15000 miles over the past two years without any issues. The previous owner also never had any issues with it and that's why I purchased it with confidence. Considering customer's safety, these engines needs to be recalled by honda and replaced with new ones or at least the warranty of these engines needs to be extended further (for at least for 5 more years). I was lucky enough to survive a fatal accident.

2007 civic hybrid with 46000 mi, the ima btry is very weak, and honda refuses to honor their 80000 mi warranty. For the 1st two years the mileage was 51.3 mpg. Now it has dropped to 39 - 42 mpg, and the ima battery rarely boosts the car during acceleration. This is dangerous when entering an interstate hwy, and even pulling out of my housing development onto the 45 MPH road beside us. Engine rarely stops when stopped at a traffic light, which it used to do all of the time. Both local honda dealer and honda of america say they cannot replace battery until the computer gives a code saying it needs to be replaced. Thus I paid several thousand dollars extra for a car that does not save much gas and is unsafe to drive. If I drive locally with no A/C, the ima system will show 6 or 7 squares of charge when I park it. When I start the car the next day, the charge will drop to 1 - 3 squares in the approx 1 block to the entrance to my housing development, driving at 15 MPH. Then, when I stop at the stop sign and try to accelerate to 45 MPH to blend into the traffic I have no boost from the hybrid system. Last monday I almost got run over by a semi while trying to accelerate up to 60 MPH when entering the interstate hwy. This car is no longer safe to drive!

The ima system on my 2007 honda civic hybrid goes through what I call a discharge cycle mostly in warmer weather. This culminates in lose of all ima functions. I my case this lose is brief. It however make the operation of the vehicle erratic. Honda has made no real attempt to get to the bottom.of this problem. Honda should buy this vehicle back at full retail value since it will be difficult to sell. I my state if I pursued this in small claims court I could be entitled to three times the damage.
