2007 Honda Civic Hybrid visibility/wiper problems

“Both sun visors (driver and passenger) fail to stay in their position, resulting in them rotating down, CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD; OBSTRUCTING VISIBILITY THRU FRONT WINDSHIELD. Additionally because the visors don't stay in their position, they hang down creating AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY HAZARD to any unsuspecting occupant getting into or out of the vehicle because you STRIKE YOUR HEAD ON THE MISPOSITIONED VISORS. The driver side visor on our vehicle has been replaced twice (10-21-2010, mileage 21188 and 7-3-2012, mileage 27839 under TSB). It is well over due needing to be replaced a third time. It appears only after a class action lawsuit Cooper v. American Honda Motor Co., Inc., did Honda issue TSB 11-031 to replace driver side (ds) visors. THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONSEQUENCE, OBSTRUCTED VISIBILITY AND IMMEDIATE STRIKING HAZARDS HAVE NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AND CONTINUES TO OCCUR. I have contacted, 8-1-2022, Honda's Customer Service and reported this reoccurring issue to them and they said they have no obligation to address the visor issue due to the age and mileage limitations established in THEIR service bulletin. Our vehicle has only 97591 miles on it.…”

“1. SAFETY RECALL NOTICE INDICATIVE OF AIR BAG PROBLEM. TOOK TO DEALER. HE SAID THAT IT HAS BEEN FIXED AFTER AN HOUR OF STAY FOR PASSENGER INFLATOR-AND WHEN NOTICED WHILE DRIVING BACK, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME AGAIN. PRIOR TO THIS ALSO, THIS PROBLEM WAS NOTIFIED A FEW YEARS AGO, AND I GOT IT FIXED. DEALER ASKING MONEY FOR DOING DIAGNOSTICS AND THEN FIXING IT. 2. FRONT AND REAR BUMPER CLIPS FIXED SEVERAL TIMES-4 TIMES SPENDING MY OWN MONEY BUT ALWAYS A PROBLEM.”

“THE PASSENGER VISOR WILL NOT GO BACK UP AND HANGS DOWN WHICH COULD HAVE AN EFFECT IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THE VISOR MIGHT SNAP IF IT IS FORCED BACK UP AND VISIBILITY COULD BE A PROBLEM IF THE SUN COMES IN THAT WAY. I HAVE MAJOR CONCERNS FOR DEPLOYMENT OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE VISOR IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS TURNING ON ALL ROADS”

“TAKATA RECALL HI I AM HAVING SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE IGNITION NOT WANTING TO TURN FOR SEVERAL MOMENTS AFTER PUTTING THE KEY INSIDE TO START MY 2007 HONDA XIVIC LX SEDAN AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LIGHTS AND POWER TO THE DOORS AND WINDOWS WORK BUT CAR WON'T ROLL OVER TO START. THE CAR HAS BEEN FLASHING A WRENCH LIKE BAR ALONG WITH WHAT LOOKS LIKE SHAPE OF THE MOTOR FOR 2 MONTHS AS WELL AD I'VE JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE DONE 4 DAYS AGO BUT YET IT STILL READS OIL LIFE 5% B1 ON THE DASH WHICH WON'T CLEAR NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH SPARK PLUS OR ANYTHING ELSE UNDER HOOD FROM VALVOLINE'S STAND POINT WHEN CHECKED OTHER THAN WIPERS DON'T NEVER WANT TO SHUT OFF AS WELL.

“THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SUN VISOR BROUGHT IT IN HAD IT FIXED IT WAS SPLITTING AT THE TOP WOULD NOT STAY UP HAPPENED AGAIN SAME THING HAPPENED TOOK IT IN ALL THEY DID WAS PUT SOME GLUE ON IT TOOK IT FOR THE 3RD TIME THEY WANT ME TO PAY 100.00 TO HAVE IT FIXED THIS IS A PROBLEM VISOR WON'T STAY UP SPLITTING AGAIN”

“WHEN TURNING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS OFF, THEY INTERMITTENTLY DO NOT PARK AT THE CORRECT LOCATION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD, OR THEY CONTINUE TO RUN. WHEN YOU TRY TO PUT IT IN THE PARK POSITION, IT JUST KEEPS RUNNING, AND LANDS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE SYMPTOM IS USUALLY MORE NOTICEABLE IN COLDER WEATHER; HOWEVER, IT IS DIFFICULT TO REPRODUCE. IF YOU HAVE A VEHICLE THAT REPORTEDLY HAS THIS SYMPTOM, REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR COVER PLATE. A HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 07-071 DATED SEPTEMBER 24,2010 IDENTIFIES THIS PROBLEM AND SAYS THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR COVER PLATE IS FAULTY. I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ON INTERNET FORUMS, AND THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. AT WHAT POINT WILL HONDA TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS AND RECALL IT? CAN YOU HELP WITH THAT? HONDA DID RECALL '03 ACCORDS FOR A WIPER ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT MEET SAFETY STANDARDS AND IS A SAFETY-RELATED DEFECT. CAN YOU HELP?”
