What owners wrote
There are three issues with this 2016 honda civic. However one of these issues must be addressed "immediately". When you go to park your car,(having it in a stationary position) you push the push button to turn it off. However if your vehicle is still in drive when you turn it off, it "turns off" and gives you a warning tone. But!!!!
Upon startup vsa, TPMS, cmbs, brake warning illuminated at 4400 miles. Power steering failed. Delivered to dealer for repair.
