Vehicle rollover crash. Fire seems to be from a recalled fuel valve. If my family burnt alive in that vehicle I would have a sick vendetta for those responsible for the non reporting of safety concerns to me as an insured driver. Including but not limited to all parties involved or responsible. This is a child safety concern. Children can be burned alive due to this hazard of engineering designed to cause total destruction for profiting purposes. The technologies at hand are too great for this type of absolute incompetence to occur. Honda should be barred from doing business in the us until such issues are addressed.

Own a 2010 honda civic hybrid. Over the last 18 months have gotten 35-42 mpg depending on city or highway. Over all have been happy will purchase until the last several weeks. 3 weeks ago had to take care into service (at 25000 miles) was told the problems I was having of inability to retain charge on ima battery was due to a weak battery. It was decided by the service dept to replace battery. Battery was replaced and is keeping a somewhat better charge but have noticed a significant decrease in power and the auto stop function only working occasionally, also noticed a decrease of mileage down to 23-25 mpg in city. Took the car back to service and after they ran diagnostic test and reviewing with honda "tech" people was told that performance was how they intended to decrease wear on batteries life. A car with no power to go up small hills and a 25mpg average is not what I spent 27000$ on and that it is certainly not what honda advertised the car to be.

Purchased a brand new 2011 honda civic 4d lxs model car in march. Within a month the car head computer issue that caused all of the electronic display control to break, speedometer, engine temperature, gas indicator, odometer, etc. All went dead. The car was taken in for service, but no root-causes were found for the issue. After the car had the battery discharged an recharged the issue simply went away. On 6/12/11 the car was involved in an accident where the car accelerated uncontrollably while attempting to park, brakes weren't functional and it jumped a curb a and ran through a fence before finally coming to a stop. The airbag also didn't deploy, we feel it should have due to the nature of the accident. We feel these could be all related a manufacturer defect that's an underlying electronics issue.
