Replying to: kork13 (Sep 14, 2007 10:52 am) I thought sedans other than the Si were made in Ohio.

Replying to: kork13 (Sep 14, 2007 10:52 am) Nope, my 2007 was made in Dec. 2006 and has a "1" VIN. Ohio (East Liberty Plant) still makes most of the civics sold in the USA, but the Canadian production has been expanded to try to make up for the increased demand in both countries.   In Canada, up until this year, the Alliston Plant #1 was the only Canadian plant making civics, and then only sedans. Now, both Plant #1 and #2 produce civics (up until the shift in 2007, the Alliston Plant #2 only made trucks). Honda did this by shifting all of the Pilot production operations to their Lincoln Alabama plant, freeing up Alliston #2 for civic production.   In 2008 there will be a new plant in Greensburg Indiana to also build "4 cyclinder cars and light trucks" (and a new 4 cylinder engine plant in Canada, but I don't recall where).

Replying to: drmbb (Sep 14, 2007 8:12 am) It was said earlier that the recall starts on the 17th. I looked up my account with Owner Link and it said my car is not involved even though it was built in Canada and begins with 2. Would it be a good idea to check again on Monday the 17th or would the recall be listed now for sure? Replies to this message: kenlw (Sep 14, 2007 3:51 pm) kenlw (Sep 14, 2007 3:54 pm)

Replying to: kathyc1 (Sep 14, 2007 3:28 pm) Kathy, look at the VIN # and compare it to the list on the recall notice. My VIN is not on the recall list, therefore I'm not affected.   Your VIN is either on the dash under the bottom/driver's side of the windshield.   You may also have it on your proof-of-insurance card or title.

Replying to: kenlw (Sep 14, 2007 3:51 pm) And a bad wheel bearing is typically going to give you lots of advance notice before it "falls off". It will make lots noise.

Replying to: targettuning (Aug 10, 2007 3:53 am) Hey guys--I've noticed 2 things with my civic sedan 06 and I'm not sure if they are problems or normal:   First thing is, often if my car goes over a bump (sometimes even a really slight unnoticeable bump) while I'm breaking, the break pedal vibrates massively and the breaking doesn't seem to work as well. The dealer said that it's just the antilock brakes kicking in but on no other car has this ever happened for me.   The other thing (and this gets very annoying) if I get stuck in the left lane behind someone turning for example and I decide to go around them on the right, I hit the gas (not too hard) from a nearly stopped position/very low speed to merge into the traffic of the right lane and often there is a delay in response from when I hit the gas to when the car actually starts moving...this happens other times when I'm already going at a decent speed as well but most noticeably when trying to do a quick acceleration.   What do you gys think? Thanks! Replies to this message: kiawah (Sep 14, 2007 6:32 pm) drmbb (Sep 15, 2007 5:18 am) kathyc1 (Sep 15, 2007 10:42 am) kathyc1 (Sep 15, 2007 10:48 am) tysalpha (Sep 17, 2007 8:15 pm)

Replying to: i3eezenotch (Sep 14, 2007 6:05 pm) Correct assessment on the anti-lock brakes. You may need strut replacement if the shock isn't able to keep the front tire from bouncing.

Replying to: i3eezenotch (Sep 14, 2007 6:05 pm) The throttle lag is a common thing - it's just the way the drive-by-wire throttle is set up. Nothting to be done about it other then adjust your driving habits to live with it.   I hear from other people that it's not just Honda, nor just civics, that have this throttle lag when accelerating from a coasting situtation (low or high speed coasting) - other car's DBW system also exhibit this behaviour.
