 Description of the problemThis is my second 2013 civic within a year. My first one had an issue with the imid screen and radio. Basically, this becomes an electrical issue that affects the rest of the vehicle. I also learned that the hard reset that was done to the vehicle could've did more harm than good. The imid would freeze, lag, blackout, the backup camera would stop working occasionally, my phone wouldn't pair occasionally, i couldn't use any of the steering wheel controls or the buttons on the radio sometimes either. Eventually, my engine shut off while driving on the highway, my door locks would either lock really hard, not lock as programmed by the imid, or lock and unlock by themselves. I thought the dealer was going to do something about the situation and they treated the car as a trade after the car had been to the dealer 8 times for tests, the hard reset, and three fixes the corporation and dealer completely avoided me towards the end. I went ahead and got another 2013 civic and 2 days later, i had an issue with the rear-window defroster. After i had the car about a month, i was using the handsfree link, when i noticed my call info was not at the top of the screen when you have the gas mileage and range on the screen. The following month, i had an issue with the blower in the car fading in and out as i was parking. Then another 2 months go by, the issues with the radio backlighting flickering and the imid start to occur again with this car. So far, i've had to wait for my car to start because it wouldn't start right away. Occasionally, i have to start it twice, sometimes i can use the radio or the handsfree link just like with the last vehicle. I had an issue with the trunk, door locks, and the security acknowledgement system in this car as well. I have a weird noise while driving coming from the front and my doors aren't lined up on the body of the vehicle.
