2015 Honda Civic Power Train

Part was leaking on transmission which caused it to burn out. There is a recall for this on multiple Honda Civics and mechanic said they are know for this but ours was not on the recall list. I have sent a previous request with no response. Please advise Honda to add this to thier recall and refund our monies.

Cvt transmission failure which Honda is known for. I have a small child and this poses a risk to both as we were driving when it first happened. Honda needs to recall the cvt transmission and do right by its faithful customers and not charge $8000 to fix the problem.

While I was driving on the highway, my vehicle stopped accelerating. It allowed me to coast. When stopped, it would hesitate before accelerating, and making a whining noise. I stopped driving my car and made an appointment to my auto shop. On the way to the auto-shop, the vehicle stopped accelerating altogether. No warning lights ever turned on, and my car was otherwise in very good health. It simply stopped accelerating. I was lucky to be able to coast onto the shoulder, in light traffic.

Transmission: Pullingout of parking and merging on to highway car feels like driving on Rumble road and losses traction.. My Daughters use this vehicle they no longer feel safe driving it. it's happened to me a.few times.as well. After doing some research it seems like lots of people are experiencing the same problem.. Who has that kind of cash to throw into a repair..

With only 96,597 miles on the CVT transmission it failed while I was driving on [XXX] In Michigan on [XXX] causing the vehicle to immediately lose power on the Interstate and I was barely able to get the car to the shoulder where the car stalled and couldn’t be restarted.

My transmission is failing and I only have 114000 miles on it. I bought it at 90,000 miles and took it to a mechanic to get a full dignostic and was told the car is in perfect condition. Now the transmission has gone to trash. My engine is still very good and I maintain all fluids, breaks and filters regularly. I’ve seen there was a recall for 2015 civics but for some reason not mine and I find it frustrating because for Honda my car has decently low miles.

On 7/20/2023 I was idling/stopped in traffic waiting to move forward to turn left at stop light. I decided to move my car to the right and go around the lane turning left and turn at the next light. I accelerated to go forward and it didn't but at the same time I hear a VERY loud crashing type of noise. I thought someone had hit me from the rear. I put my car in park and went to 'look at the damage to the car' and realized no one had hit me. I was a bit puzzled and went back to my car and tried to move forward. The car was running but I could not move it at all - neither R or D would work. I kind of figured it was the transmission since I couldn't move the car but the engine was still going. It also wouldn't HOLD park so I had to use my emergency brake. I have never had any concerns/problems with my transmission. There were no lights that went on in the car. The car was towed to a garage where I was told upon inspection that my transmission had indeed failed. I was also told that transmission problems have plagued 2014 and 2015 Honda Civics - although my car was not recalled. SAFETY? I had my 90 year mother in the car and thank the Lord it didn't happen when I was driving at a higher rate of speed. As it was, I was stuck in the middle of a lane during rush hour traffic and unable to move my car. A very kind woman stopped and we got my mother out of the car and into safety into her van.

When I was merging onto the highway, my car suddenly stopped being able to move forward when the gas pedal was pressed. I was able to steer it to a safe location and tested the rest of the shifter positions but the car would not move at all in any of them. After having it towed to a dealership it was found that the CVT belt had come apart, necessitating a full transmission replacement.

On Friday, November 17, 2023 around 5 pm, I had come to a stop at a light. I was turning right. As I slowed down I heard a rumble. I thought it was a rumble strip on side of the road. However, as I accelerated and made my right turn, my car felt sluggish from 0-25 mph, was noisy, vibrating, rough and felt like the car was having trouble accelerating. As soon as my spedometer reach 40-50 mph and higher it smoothed out. Once I decreased my speed again, however, the rumble came back started over with acceleration again. No one has looked at it on a lift yet, but have been told from them driving it, sounds like transmission is going out. It shows “0” unrepaired recalls, but I’m wondering now if this one slipped thru the cracks. I am now in desperate need of a new car and still owe a few thousand on this one, as I bought it in 2018, used with 20k miles on it at the time.

On 10/8-23 my daughter was driving her 2015 Honda Civic when it suddenly stopped moving forward/not respond to the accelerator. There was no warning light, it simply stopped working. She was on a busy highway and luckily was able to turn into an outer road. We had to have the car towed and now am being told the belt broke in the transmission. I googled to see if there were any recalls as she only has 112,000 miles on the car and we have it serviced regularly. There is a recall pertaining to a software program for the 2014-2015 Civics, but when I enter our VIN #, it shows that there is no recall. I would assume that our car fell under the recall as what happened is exactly what is stated in the recall notice. We never received a recall notice and our Honda dealership never notified us of a recall. I do believe this is an error on Honda's part as the recall is what happened to our vehicle. Now, we are having to put almost $7,000 into this car when we should have been warned about this even if our "VIN" is not in this as it apparently should be. I have read online so many others that were trapped into this expense without having any notice. Again, Honda should expand this recall and us that were not given the opportunity to help prevent this should be compensated in some way.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Civic. The contact stated that on numerous occasions while driving at approximately 40-50 MPH in cold weather, he would depress the brake pedal at a fast pace, and the vehicle would hesitate and stall. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after each failure. Additionally, the contact stated that after the vehicle was parked for hours, he was able to start the vehicle however, while the accelerator pedal was depressed, the engine revved and the RPM increased but the vehicle failed to respond as needed. The transmission warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 108,000.

The transmission went out and requires full replacement after being inspected by my local Honda dealership. It is available for further inspection upon request. My car stopped accelerating while on the interstate and required a tow on the shoulder of a 65-MPH highway. The vehicle and component issues were confirmed by my local Honda dealership. No. There were two warning messages that populated immediately as the car died. By that time it was to late and the vehicle was inoperable. No other warning messages or lamps prior to the incident. My VIN is associated with a previous safety recall (15V-574) that was issued for the same year, make, and model of vehicle. My VIN is identical to the range provided down to the production number. I believe that it is not a coincidence that it was manufactured in the same place and time down to the week of vehicles identified in that recall down to the production number, that is only barely out of range.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. The transmission warning light and several other unknown warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle made grinding sounds while driving. The vehicle was towed to a friend's body shop. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to tow the vehicle to a local dealer for a diagnostic test. The failure mileage was approximately 116,000.

At 40mph heard a whining sound followed by grinding. Car lounges forward comes to a brisk stop. Total transmission failure. 127000 miles

Transmission completely went out with no warning or prior issues. I had just had my tire, brakes, oil, and an all around inspection done a week before this happened. I currently have it at a Honda dealership where they can not or will not tell me how this occurred only that I need a brand new transmission.

After owning my car for 2 years I got curious about transmission fluid and wanted to check it, when I couldn't find I went to Google and discovered I had a plug and no dipstick, I Googled where the plug was located and found out it was missing either since I bought it or sometime it came out in the first 2 years. I just got through going through forums and group discussions and I've learned that this is an extremely extremely extremely common issue and people's transsmissions are failing while driving and locking up the front wheels. I'm very scared of what might happen to me. I'm at 90k miles and all the reports seem to be around 70k to 120k miles. I don't want it to fail with my daughter in the car and on top of that people are saying it's costing them 6000 dollars to fix the transmission after it fails. All of this is due to the transsmission plug missing. Please for my sake and all other honda owners just look up "honda civic tran plug missing" and you will find 100s of reports from many sources

Car when Accelerator. is depressed The transmission searches bogs Down Loss of power switches gears jerks around Which makes it extremely unsafe when trying to pull out into traffic. Had a mechanic look at it and you stated. This is extremely common with this year in type of Car. Honda put a unsafe transmission in them and should replace. Especially with only 50 Thousand miles on it

Driving down the freeway the the car made a loud noise and would no longer accelerate. There was no warning. All maintenance was up to date. I was told it needs a new transmission. This is unacceptable. Only have 70K miles on it.

The the cap to my automatic transmission keeps popping off. I'm concerned that this could lead to contamination of the transmission fluid and premature failure of the transmission.

The passenger side drive shaft or axle snapped in half due to excessive rusts under the vibration dampener. I was accelerating from a red light while going uphill, heard a clunk, all of a sudden car would not go forward or go into park. I had to hit the brakes to avoid rolling backwards and hitting a car behind me. Then I had to put it in neutral to get to a safe area and get my car towed. The car has about 51,000 mi on it. We are in Pennsylvania so we do get a lot of road salt, still it doesn't seem like this should have failed just driving forward. The mechanic says he hasn't seen a failure like this in a car of this age. The portion of the axle under the dampener was clearly quite tapered due to chronic rusting, finally just snapped where it was so thin. It appears that the dampener traps salt and moisture against the shaft.

After turning on to a 4 lane highway, my car lost power and would not run over 40 miles per hour. This put me into a very dangerous situation as you can imagine. I will be finding someone to look at it tomorrow, however, this exact issue is described in the recall CVT transmission recall but ironically, this car does not appear to be included in the recall. There were absolutely no warning lights when this happened.

The car was driving fine until I heard a grinding sound and pulled over to the side of the road. I turned the car off and on again, put it in drive, and pressed the gas pedal but instead of driving the car started to roll backwards down the hill I was stopped on. No check engine or other warning lights came on. I had the car towed to a mechanic who said the transmission was broken and needed to be replaced. The car is outside of the manufacturer's power train warranty but is only 7 years old with 95,000 miles. I was lucky to be driving on a residential road with no other cars around when the transmission failed instead of potentially driving on a busy highway. After having the car repaired I learned that this car once had a recall regarding broken drive pulley shafts. There are 0 open recalls tied to my VIN so I believe the software update recall was performed before I purchased the used car. I'm wondering if the software update was sufficient if the transmission still failed only a few years later.

Pressure caused transmission plug to pop out unknowingly. Vehicle now jerks at low speeds or when accelerating from a full stop position. Likely that missing plug is allowing dirt and debris into transmission fluid. Transmission likely negatively impacted. This vehicle has less than 75,000 miles. Seems this vehicle should have been included with the NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 15V574000
