ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
Vehicle is showing multiple codes for abs, hill assist, power steering , brakes etc.
Brake System, Power Steering System, ABS System, VSA System, and Hill Start Assist System lights randomly turn on all at the same time. This causes the car to jerk and have problems accelerating. Turning the steering wheel makes noises below the car. I've taken it to an independent service (shop) three times and they can't find out what is wrong. They have already refreshed the codes and checked the sensors. I changed tires and took it to auto zone, but shows no signs of any problems. The fact that it randomly turns on and starts causing all these problems, makes it hard and risky to drive anywhere. I've already had to tow it once because the jerking got so bad that pressing on the gas would not even drive/accelerate. Luckily there were not many cars near me and I was able to get far enough to find a safe place to park. I've read my blogs with people having the same problems. All have not been able to diagnose the problems and that's why they've turned to the blogs. Not knowing when these system warning lights will turn on makes it unpredictable to drive, diagnose, and fix.
Will not stay in alignment. 3 attempts in 40 days and am shrugged off by the dealer. Have complained about inconsistent breaking pressure needed, will not check breaks have extremely loose steering at high speeds, have lack of ABS intermittently, strong burning smell after 30+ minutes of cruising on highway. Loss of power when warm outside. Will not reset from tire rotation and oil filters maintenance minders
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 honda civic. The contact stated that while stationary, the vehicle would not start when prompted. The contact stated that the "check ABS" warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to be repaired but the dealer could not duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 40,000. The VIN was not available.
The vechile will randomly not start everything would have power and the lights will turn on but the car will start the lights on the dashboard will flicker and make weird noises. Also would get ABS vsa TPMS and brake light warning while trying to start and then when you jump start it, it would work again. Dealer checked the car and said everything is fine battery checks good and alternator as well but the car keeps doing it and has left me down on the road 4 times in I last 3 months I need honda to fix this !!!!!!!!!
I purchased a new honda civic 2014 on 6/27/2014. One month and a half later during my morning commute, each time I tried to speed up to 50 miles/hour, I started feeling some jerkiness. Since it was a new car, I was not sure that it was normal or not. About a week after that, one morning when I was very slowly pulling the car out of the garage, the car stopped and the engine died. I turned on the engine and tried to move the car again. This happened 4 times on the same day. Next day I called the car dealer and took my car for the inspection. They found that the transmission had a defect and it had to be replaced. Then on 10/19/2014, when I was driving a street, I got a tire pressure warning. My husband helped to add air to the tires, but the warning sign did not disappear. On 10/27/2014, when my husband was driving the car in the afternoon, a series of warnings appeared (vsa, TPMS, eps, ABS). After he got home, he called the dealer to ask for towing service to take the car back to the dealer as he did not feel safe to drive the car. The car was towed to the dealer next morning. The dealer replaced the ABS sensor and performed the software update for the vsa system. However the dealer stated that it could happen again.
