Tl* the contact owns a 2017 honda civic. While the vehicle was parked, it rolled away independently. The failure recurred twice. As a result, the contact injured her foot and required medical attention. The vehicle was taken to auburn honda (1801 grass valley hwy, auburn, ca 95603), but the cause of the failure was undetermined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 4,411.
I was driving on the freeway and the engine began losing power. Soon after, multiple warning lights on the dash lit up. I barely had enough power to clear the busy freeway. The car was towed to autonation honda in chandler, az, where the technician discovered fuel in the oil. He said honda was aware of the problem on this 1.5 turbo engine, but no fix existed. He changed the oil and released the car back to me. After just a few minutes online, I discovered the history of this particular engine issue.
