The trunk lid hasn't been right all along. I can't tell you how many times it has come down and hit me on the head. Now, the bar that keeps the lid open has snapped and the trunk will not stay open by itself. It closes with such force, it could really injure a person,. It was parked in the garage when it happened.

I bought a 2011 honda civic coupe. I bought it new and have been the only owner. 2 years ago the paint began peeling on the trunk. The peeling has now extended from trunk to the roof. The paint on the roof is almost entirely peeling. The trunk has huge spots where it is peeling. The hood has white lines on it also from paint failure. This car now looks ridiculous and is embarrassing to drive.honda issued a recall but never actually alerted people that may have this problem. They are absolutely liable for this paint failure for using cheap products.

I love my honda civic and this is the 2nd one I've had, however I have one safety issue with the 2011, visibility and blind spots while driving. Sitting in the drivers seat, the part between the front windshield and the passenger side window has nearly caused me several accidents. I pull up to stop sign, and road looks clear, but when I start to pull out, I just miss a car or truck that was caught in that one blind spot. Honda should look into this and fix the design of this area.
