2015 Honda Civic 4dr Sedan
143-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD
| 21700 mi | Battery has been sluggish to start in the cold weather, so I had the battery checked by Auto Zone, who said it was fine. When left more than a couple days without starting, it cranked even slower. After leaving town for a week, the car had to be jumped to start. Did self-diagnosis of parasitic draw using ammeter and checked voltage drop over each fuse using voltmeter. Couldn't identify source of draw so I had dealer check it while it was in for routine service. I'm not sure how much time they spent in diagnosing (they didn't charge me anything), but they said they would need at least 2 hours of time (at $115/hr) to do further troubleshooting. I decided to live with it for now, since it still starts in the morning, even with sub-zero temperatures. |

| 48000 mi | Hope this is labeled correctly? Not exactly a repair, but at the time worrisome to me. Civic's very sensitive tire pressure sensors flashed "check tire pressure". I did. Less than 1 lb. difference. But prior to resetting the system, I used radio without motor on. Upon restarting vehicle, ALL the dashboard lights flashing "recheck ABS", "recheck TPNS", "Recheck Brakes", etc. over and over! Very startling display, frightening, as if car falling apart. Computer check at repair shop revealed no problems with vehicle. Internet reports this story with Honda Civics, perhaps other models? All systems reset, no charge. But I don't need my vehicle to be this sensitive!! Honestly. |
