1997 Honda Civic Other or unknown Problems

“I was driving on interstate 85, and there was a large truck tire laying in the middle of a 4 lane highway, thus causing multiple accidents. My car hit the tire and almost caused a few accidents, almost causing other people as well as myself to be injured fatally. The DOT should have cleaned it up, and since I do not have collision on my insurance policy they are not covering any damages. We pay taxes to the state and government to have safe motor ways, and I feel these accidents could have been prevented in advance.”

Given that this is a common occurence, I felt that it may warrant further reporting to your organization.”

“I reported the front floor mats problems with motorcars on 12/28/99 and was told by the service tech that the mats were not orignal Honda mats. I wrote to troy ohio, customer relations concerning the vehicles front floor mats and informed them that they were the one that came with the lease vehicle when I entered into the lease agreement on 10/09/99. Why would a vehicle be certified and leased as safe when the drivers' mat slides under the accelarator and can cause the driver not to be able to accelarate and break properly? …”
