2017 Honda Civic: multiple warning lights

Filed Jul 15, 2024 · Electrical · OH

My vehicles Body Control Module has malfunctioned and now I have to get a new one. When driving my car will begin to flash all of the warning lights including the power steering, break system, TMPS system and the immobilizer light. This is distracting while driving and it makes me feel like I am going to crash and I could injure myself or others on the road when these lights are distracting and I am not in a safe place to pull over. Honda Marysville has inspected the vehicle and has confirmed that the Body Control Module has failed. A bunch of alerts began to pop up and I was unsure of which ones to fix. I checked all my tires and they were within normal range so I was confused why my car was showing me the warning light. There were no other warnings that were shown. My car alarm would go off and the lights on the dash would flash when I turned my car off.

I'm afraid to drive my car for my own safety. You know Honda, my Life matters too!

Car was parked in my garage and the alarm set itself off multiple times, when I approached the car it was unresponsive to any key fob commands and the dashboard was completely lit with flashing safety feature warning lights, and airbags were also disabled. Had to open the car with the manual key, since the car would not respond to the key fob. Started the car to see what was going on, when I went to turn it off again, it refused and wouldn't turn off. I proceeded to call roadside assistance after multiple failed attempts to get the car to respond to the key fob and they turned the car off. Two days later I drove car to the dealership, the whole way there all the warning lights were on and all the safety features were disabled and not working. Dealership refused to cooperate or even acknowledge the issue at hand. Took it two times just to be turned away and told they would not help me out, as they claimed they did not find anything wrong with the car, even though when we went to pick it up the vehicle was still not working. The car was bought new, I'm the original owner, only has 14,600 miles. Dealership manager told us that corporate honda commanded him not to touch the vehicle and to tell us to pick it up. Drove the car back still broken, with all safety features not working, warning lights on, and the alarm continues to set itself off. Had to disconnect battery and it has been sitting in my garage unusable for two weeks now, for it is not safe to drive. Attempted various times to contact corporate honda for help with this issue, yet they refuse to acknowledge what is going on and will not respond. Please help, this car is unsafe and must be recalled. What would it take for honda to own up? It seems safety is not a concern for them. It is a safety concern for the car is controlled by unresponsive electronics.

I was driving on the freeway and the engine began losing power. Soon after, multiple warning lights on the dash lit up. I barely had enough power to clear the busy freeway. The car was towed to autonation honda in chandler, az, where the technician discovered fuel in the oil. He said honda was aware of the problem on this 1.5 turbo engine, but no fix existed. He changed the oil and released the car back to me. After just a few minutes online, I discovered the history of this particular engine issue. I know honda says it only happens in cold climates, but that day was over 100 degrees f. Also, the oil had been changed at the same dealership approx. 6 weeks earlier and only 619 miles before the event. I am now afraid to drive it at night or on the freeway in case this happens again.

During driving of the vehicle and at various speeds all electrical systems will fail and all warning lights come on. This includes ABS, traction control, power steering, brake assist and more. When this occurs the vehicle becomes almost impossible to steer and has nearly resulted in an accident before. While the previous occurrence happened at approximately 35mph if this occurred on the interstate it would almost certainly result in a major crash and injury.

I've only had my car a year. My car had been using oil for 2 weeks recently. I had to put oil in it every other day. My mechanic said it should not be using oil like that. I had it inspected and it passed and had my oil changed which I do every 3,000-5,000 miles. My emission control problem light came on. I called the honda dealership (not where I bought my vehicle) and took my car to them, but on the way there, my car started stalling and all the lights started flashing on my dashboard and it was smoking out of the back of my car. I had to pull over and have my car towed to the dealership. It took them two days to tell me that it was the turbo charger that needed replacing on my 2017 honda civic hatchback. This car is only 3 years old!! I am very upset and have only had my car for a year! I do not have the money to pay $2400 on a car that I'm still paying on. Very mad at honda!

Starting about 9 months ago I have had several occasions of electrical issues on my 2017 honda civic that is less than a year and a half old and only has 18k miles on it. It first started around the fall last year with my car repeatedly popping the trunk when I would not be near it and would come out to it in the parking lot at work and find my trunk wide open. Later on I found out the trunk popping open would force the car alarm to go off for several hours and occasionally would lead to a dead battery. When I took it in to have the issue investigated the technicians told me the couldn't diagnose the problem and that it shouldn't continue (it has continued and in fact is happening as I type this in my apartment). The next issue occurred about 2 months ago while I was driving down the interstate in the pouring rain and my windshield wipers stopped working completely. Upon having this problem inspected the technicians determined it was "faulty" windshield wiper motors and had both replaced. The latest issue that occurred was as I was driving to pensacola from washington and stopped off at a rest stop in the middle of nowhere oregon for some sleep. Upon waking up (3hrs after I shut the car off) I discovered my car was doing some glitchy thing with all the lights and dashboard where it was acting like I was turning it off and on. I had nothing turned on or plugged in when I went to sleep and when I woke up the car was completely dead and the electrical system had totally disabled the car.

This is a 5-door hatchback in ex trim bought new 12/2016. Within 2 weeks electrical issues started, from xm tuner going out to main headunit going out on a intermittant basis. This disables all audio, bluetooth, climate controls, back-up camera, & lanewatch. "check tuner" shows briefly often. Occurs even when driving. Dealer unable to duplicate, because of this honda refuses repair. Tpms alert displays frequently, after a tire even a wheel repair/replacement. Per dealer & honda tech all 4 should be matching set @ time of service, or dealer can attempt hard reset. Software update recently done for this. Told to bring back to dealer if/when TPMS lights up again. Known poor android auto performance & apple carplay non-function, no repair at this time (software issues). "christmas tree" display - no ABS, traction control, electric steering, airbag malfunction, etc etc. No long-term resolution, per dealer "software issues". Groaning noise when turning wheels left or right from stop, per dealer & honda tech "normal operation". Sunroof glass breakage is at owner expense, not a warranty coverage item. Engine shakes/shudders on start, again "normal operation" per dealer & honda tech. Poor horn performance, per dealer only a single low note horn installed. Not loud enough to be heard easily. Owner expense to upgrade to better (louder) unit. Electrical glitches still ongoing almost 2 years now, vehicle has 20,000 miles. This 10th gen civic not reliable & may prove a safety concern long-term. Am unable to afford replacing this vehicle at this time. Honda customer service has been largely indifferent towards these issues, citing "unable to duplicate" even "software issues".
