I have a 2014 honda civic with 136000 on the car that has a transmission problem starting. Some 2014 honda civic were recalled for a transmission problem yet my vehicle, 2014 civic model miss the recall. All civics have a pretty similar setup as far as the engine and transmission. As far as honda goes they are known for there engines lasting a while and having no issues yet I have a transmission issue that is yet unknown and will cost at least 5k to fix. Over the past few days the cars ability to accelerate and downshift has gotten worse. This car has a automatic transmission yet when you slow down then go to accelerate the car jumps gears, you get the feeling as if you are on a motorcycle and it stalls and jumps forward. Along with that there's a slight noice that is working overtime. (incident occurs around 2mph-65)

Purchased new 09/2014 pohanka honda of fredericksburg, va. When accelerating after a slow down or stop, this car will often hesitate, or stall, sometimes will not accelerate at all momentarily , when I press the gas pedal harder it surges forward suddenly. Ithe service department said that I must get accustomed to this new type crv transmission. Next they told me to change the manufacturer of the gasoline. Then I was told they could find no fault with this car and to continue to report any problems. I have driven many cars in my life and have never experienced this type problem and not be able to correct it. While I continue to drive this car, I am very leery about its performance especially the surging. We have had this car thirteen months and my wife has only driven it two times. My passengers have asked me many times what is the problem. I am very afraid this car will get out of control and hurt someone.

I have currently lodged more than six complaints with this agency in regard to a 2014 honda civic I purchased new from frank fletcher honda in bentonville, ar. The vehicle continues to experience the same issues on a daily basis. This includes stalling, transmission slipping, jerking and an overall rough ride. The dealership was served on february 3, 2015 with a certified letter making a written demand under the arkansas new motor vehicle quality assurance act (act 297 of 1993) to provide compensation under said law. Honda america was also served with the same letter. The dealership and honda america have had ample time to correct this situation but have done nothing to date. Both entities have placed me and my family in jeopardy by choosing to answer my request for a safe vehicle. My attorney, who drew up the letter, stated the car falls under the "lemon law" and I'm currently driving "half a vehicle."

This is the seventh (7) complaint I have filed in regard to a new honda civic I purchased from frank fletcher honda in bentonville, ar. The car has also been taken to the dealership seven times with no resolution. I am still being forced to drive a vehicle which is not safe. At approximately 1:45 p.m. My husband picked me up from work for lunch. As we were driving down the rode, we felt a "slipping" movement and the car began to stall out. Following this was a series of small jerking movements as we continued to drive. A week ago my attorney filed legal documents under the arkansas auto lemon law against honda america. The vehicle has met all requirements under this law. I am hoping the federal safety agency will take my complaints seriously and monitor honda america's actions towards consumers and the vehicles that are being sold which have safety issues.

After expressing my concern for the safety of my family, I have been forced to drive this car as it is the family's only source of transportation. Mr. Blake, mr. Fletcher, and the dealership technicians basically ignored my concerns until the federal safety agency was contacted. Hondaamerica has also become involved be there has been no resolution.

This is the sixth complaint I've made to the federal safety agency for the same issue. I purchased the car new from frank fletcher honda and it's been to the dealership seven times from september through december 2014 with no resolution. On sunday december 21 the car had two separate incidents where it stalled out. The first was at approximately 8:45 a.m. My husband was driving to the neighborhood market to pick up breakfast items when the car stalled out. The second incident occurred when me and my 15-year-old were driving to kohl's to do some christmas shopping at approximately 3:30 p.m. It stalled out as I was turning off the main road into the parking lot. This upset me, especially since my child was in the car. I don't want anything to happen to her due to a flaw in the vehicle. I have no choice, however, since we only have one vehicle. I need help reaching a resolution with honda america and frank fletcher honda. I have a problem with the car every time I drive it.
