Complaint Trends

When considering a 2023 Honda Civic, it’s important to research the other model years as well. This helps provide a broader perspective on a car model’s complaint history and potential issues.

Here are a few reasons why:
Understanding the car’s evolution: Car models can undergo significant changes from year to year, both in terms of design and functionality. This knowledge can help you better appreciate the car’s strengths and weaknesses and determine whether the specific year you are considering is the best buy.

Identifying recurring issues: Some car models have recurring issues that may not be apparent in a specific year. By researching the other model years, you can identify any recurring issues that the car may have and determine whether they have been resolved in the specific year you are considering. This knowledge can help you make an informed decision and avoid potential costly repairs down the line.

Overall, researching other Honda Civic years will help identify the model year with the lowest amount of high severity complaints, further ensuring a better car buying decision.

Timeline of Complaints

The timeline of complaints identifies how many problems owners reported with the 2023 Honda Civic while covered under the Bumper-to-Bumper and Powertrain warranties.

Seeing how many complaints have been filed for a car while it is still under warranty can be beneficial in several ways:

  • Indicates reliability: If a vehicle has a high volume of high severity complaints filed while still under warranty, it may indicate that the car is not reliable. This information can be valuable for a car shopper who is looking for a car that will be dependable and require minimal repairs.
  • Helps identify potential issues: By researching the complaints filed for a particular model, a car shopper can get an idea of the common issues that owners face with the vehicle.
  • Can influence warranty coverage negotiations: If you have a 2023 Honda Civic and your warranty claim for expensive repairs is rejected, having a record of similar complaints can increase your chances of getting the defect covered under warranty. In other words, documenting common issues with your vehicle could help you negotiate better warranty coverage.

Recalls

Honda (America Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2023 Civic, Acura RDX, Acura Integra, and 2022 Honda Accord vehicles. A ball valve in the vehicle stability assist (VSA) modulator may leak brake fluid, which can result in unintended vehicle movement when the brake hold feature is engaged or an unexpected increase in brake pedal travel.

How the EPA Test Fuel Costs

Manufacturers test their own vehicles — usually pre-production prototypes and report the results to EPA. The EPA then reviews the results and confirms about 15%–20% of them through their own tests at the National Vehicles and Fuel Emissions Laboratory.

The EPA Testing Process

Vehicles are tested on dynamometers, which are like giant treadmills for cars. The vehicle is held stationary while its wheels spin the dyno’s large rollers. The EPA’s fuel-economy test has specific rules, such as a set volume of air that a fan must blow under the car’s raised hood. After a vehicle is strapped down on a dyno, the engineers adjust the amount of energy required to move the rollers to simulate real-world factors, such as wind, road friction and the vehicles weight.

On the dyno, a driver runs the vehicle through standardized driving routines called cycles or schedules. These cycles simulate “typical” trips in the city or on the highway. Each cycle specifies the speed the vehicle must travel during each second in the test.

Measuring Fuel Use

To measure for fuel use, vehicles using carbon-based fuels (e.g., gasoline, diesel, natural gas, etc.), a hose is connected to the tailpipe to collect the engine exhaust during the tests. The carbon in the exhaust is measured to calculate the amount of fuel burned during the test. This is more accurate than using a fuel gauge.

Measuring Fuel Use for Electric Vehicles

A EV vehicle with a fully charged battery is driven continuously over the EPA city cycle until the battery is depleted and the vehicle can drive no further. The distance driven is recorded. This is repeated, again starting with a full charge, over the EPA highway cycle, again recording the distance driven when the battery is depleted. This “single cycle” test consists of multiple repeat drives of the city or highway cycle.

All data is derived from vehicle testing done at EPA’s NVFEL facility, and by vehicle manufacturers who submit their test data to EPA for verification.

Based on 45% highway, 55% city driving, 15,000 annual miles and current fuel prices.

Overall Safety Rating Explained

Recalls provided by NHTSA

Crash test data sourced direct from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

The NHTSA conducts a series of crash tests to evaluate the safety performance of vehicles. The tests include:

Frontal Crash Test: This test simulates a head-on collision between two similar vehicles, each traveling at 35 mph.

Side Crash Test: This test simulates a T-bone collision between a moving vehicle and a stationary vehicle. The moving vehicle strikes the stationary vehicle at 38.5 mph.

Rollover Resistance Test: This test measures a vehicle's ability to resist tipping over in a dynamic test that involves a sudden turn.

Rear Crash Test: This test simulates a collision between two vehicles of similar size and weight, with one vehicle striking the other from behind at 50 mph.

Pedestrian Safety Test: This test evaluates a vehicle's ability to mitigate pedestrian injuries in a collision.

The results of these tests are used to determine a vehicle's overall safety rating, which ranges from 1 to 5.

5 out of 5 rating indicates the vehicle has the highest level of safety performance

1 out of 5 rating indicates the lowest level of safety performance.

Total Complaints Explained

Complaint Meter

If the number of complaints is above 300 for a particular car model, it may be a cause for concern.

However, examining the severity of complaints is crucial because a newer model (less than 3 years old) may not necessarily have many complaints due to its limited mileage.

While a car model with a lot of complaints may still indicate potential issues, the severity of the complaints is important to consider, as a high quantity of low severity complaints may not be as significant as a smaller number of high severity complaints.

For example, some complaints may be minor, such as issues with the infotainment system, while others may be more serious and costly, such as engine, transmission, charging, or airbag problems.

Additionally, it's important to consider if the reported problems resulted in a crash, fire, injury, or even a death.

Ultimately, it's important to research the owner complaints found on this page to help weigh the potential risks and benefits of purchasing this vehicle.

Most Reported Problem Explained

The Most Reported Problem stat is a valuable data point that alerts you to the most frequent issue reported by vehicle owners, and helps identify emerging problem trends.

And if the most reported problem has a "Critical" or "Serious" severity rating, you may want to consider researching other model years, or a completely different vehicle altogether.

Severity Ratings Explained

Car problems can vary in their severity and potential safety risks. For example, a problem with a Parking Brake could be a minor issue that may be quickly resolved.

On the other hand, a malfunctioning Forward Collision Avoidance System could pose a serious risk to the driver and passengers, as well as other vehicles on the road.
