Traveling down Interstate 49 in Arkansas. Hit a patch of "chicken byproduct" that was spilled on the highway. My car fishtailed. VSA module out of service. Did a vehicle diagnostic scan on it. Scanner said VSA module malfunctioning. No ABS past 30 mph. Took vehicle to shop. They said VSA module needed to be replaced. VSA is suppose to be a safety mechanism in the 2013 Honda Civic. I have read that I am not the only owner to have this problem. Should be a recall. They are expensive to replace.

Put the car into reverse, backed up, put the car into drive, applied pressure to the gas peddle, then car then jerked, shook, had to pull over to let car rest, drove slow back home. Since then around 3000 rpm the car will hesitate. Replaced spark plugs, put in Sea Foam engine cleaning solution Diagnostic computer does not show anything wrong.

Hi, an event happened where the civic was not started (keys were in ignition but the car wasn't actually started unbeknownst to the driver, as it was in a loud environment and the car is quiet when it is running). It was on a very slight hill. When the driver put the car in reverse, the car reversed all the way into the street and didn't respond to braking, narrowly missing a car that passed. Once it was in the street; it took trying a few things to get the car to start again or release the keys. Shouldn't there be a safety mechanism that would prevent a car from reversing when it isn't actually running? Or something thar would allow the brakes to still function in an event like that? Thank you.

Cv joint noise when turning left - a clicking or knocking sound which matches the speed of the wheels. This car is four years old and has 12000 miles on it.
