Driving at roughly 6mph in a parking lot when my passenger side airbag randomly deployed. Resulted in shattered windshield, damage to dash, seat belts not working properly. Vehicle was not and has not been in any accident. No damage to the vehicle.

We purchased our 2020 honda civic si on jan 16, 2021 with 20 miles on the car. On june 29, 2021 while driving the car it failed to shift into 2nd/3rd. It stopped shifting altogether and we pulled off to see if stopping and starting may fix the issue. Apparently the clutch had blown out as the car wouldn’t even start. We had it towed up to honda dealership we purchased it from. They claim that the clutch “exploded” and wouldn’t cover it under warranty even though we have a power train warranty (and even an extended warranty). A clutch should not “explode” after less than 6,000 miles on a car. We drove in normal driving conditions. Online we see this issue repeated around.

The contact owns a 2020 honda civic. The contact stated while stationary, the vehicle rolled backwards and hit a wall. The contact stated that the vehicle was equipped with a manual transmission. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with the parking brakes. The vehicle was towed and diagnosed but not yet repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 9,000.

Twice within a one week period, some type of animal, most likely a rodent, ate through my power steering harness rendering all safety features on the car inoperable. The car was undriveable as the steering wheel could not be turned. The dealership advised that the wiring for this vehicle is made of soy which is a food source for animals. Honda is aware of this issue and now stocks rodent tape to use over the wires. Honda should not be building automobiles with soy based wiring. No other vehicle sin my lot were affected--just mine because it was a honda. I have the harnesses from the dealership showing where they were chewed on. The dealership is aware of other customers with this same problem. It is most definitely a safety hazard. Wires that were not completely chewed through could fail while the car is operating causing injury and/or fatality. This issue has existed for several years with honda and they have not changed their manufacturing. Class action lawsuits were necessary. These vehicles should be recalled for replacement of a power steering harness that is not made of soy. My complaint to honda was given a case number, but i have not been provided any status even after calling for same.

The contact was informed that the flywheel inside the clutch was damaged however, the part for the repair was not available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a cause. The contact was informed that the failure was caused by abusing the clutch. No further assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 8,400.

Has not been taken in yet. However this is the second time i experienced this... Driving home from work at 7am in nys, down shifted from 6th to 2nd gears in reverse sequential order to use engine braking. Noticed as i was getting off the exit ramp of the highway, that my car would shoot up to 6k rpm to barely go 20 mph... This clutch is a huge problem for all civic si they put them in. Three years ago had the same issue with my 2017 civic si. Was told that it was a wear item and would not be covered under warranty...

This 2020 honda civic si has been nothing but trouble. From the start i had the windshield crack on me from what honda said was a tiny chip. I went in to work with my windshield seemingly fine only to come out to a spider web split all the way across the windshield. Honda would not cover citing it to be just an 'accident' and i would have to get it fixed. The windshield absolutely had to be replaced with factory oem glass due to safety features which was on back order so i was forced to drive around with a broken windshield for close to 2 months. Company that installed glass said this is becoming more 'normal' so to say as the glass they are using is paper thin in his words. On top of that from day one of owning the car it has the 'safety' feature of lane keep assist and this feature will literally pick up heavy shadows on the road from power lines and try to correct you as if you are driving out of a lane! Countless times i have had to hurry and over ride the assistance just to keep it from making me run off the road! Honda severely needs to look into this on top of their unsafe thin windshields which crack from the tiniest of pebbles hitting them. Also, i just had to replace the clutch and components in this vehicle after just 20k miles and less than a year of owning the vehicle. Honda offered nothing but a one time good will assist in paying for partial labor and parts. This started happening after a normal drive to work one day while going up a hill the clutch started slipping. Made an appointment and took the car in and was told to put another 100 miles on the car and bring back to them although they said they found a transmission leak and needed to find the source . This was certainly very unsafe as while doing those 100 miles the clutch completely burnt out and i was left stranded on the side of the highway and i was put in a dangerous situation.
