Is it just me or is 8th gen interior Fu<kin cheap

[Suanico]

I swear in 11 months of having my si and barely driving it, my interior door handle on driver side broke, my buttons on my steering wheel to control radio sometimes dont work, my rubber trim around door is all falling off and today my window visor broke WTF

Covered by warranty?

 

[Ek4C707]

they are cheap. my sisters 2007 civic is like that and people on 8thcivic.com has similar problems

I work at Honda and everyone there thinks theyre garbage. Last good civics died in 2000

^^Yeah that... youd think Honda would put quality stuff in the SI models besides the motor... ive had my car for 8 months and so far nothings broke.

I would also agree some of the interior is a little on the chinzy side - then again, all cars are built to a price-point and there is a lot worse out there too.

 

[R3dline]

at least its not a kia

My interior has treated me well the past 2 years. My only complaint is how tidious the vinyl is to clean.

ive had my civic for 4 years now, and its not overly worn. except my steering wheel which got replaced by honda at 30k miles

i've had mine for almost 3 years, and only thing that has happened is just the driver's sun visor, other then that, mine has been perfect, no complaints, love it every bit.

i think some people just expect it to take all the abuse they give it, however, some of it does mark easily, like the door panels. but it still comes off pretty easy. and if you cant get one off, use the shoe scuff remover from walmart. has worked on mine a few times.

lame, how unacceptable, my 5th gen interior was just as good at 125k miles as it was 8 years prior at 20k miles....

 

[somejaykid]

that's what you get for buying a honda op lol

 

[BlueSiclone]

The sun-visors have been known by Honda dealers for a while, however I've never had any issues out of my '08..for the most part, I have noticed that alot of cars (almost any brand) hold up ok if you treat them right...not always the case but there aren't too many people who buy Si's and drive them like they have sense....

 

[Suanico]

new one was $50 also bought the ripped door weather stripping for $32, so my interior will be back to 100% already fixed door handle and replaced the shift boot with the oem red stiching boot, just an unwanted headache u know! taking away from my muffler and foglight funds!

 

[Suanico]

My 6th gen civic still runs perfectly with 141k miles now and interior is still completely intact

 

[BlueSiclone]

y did you pay for it??? you have only had it 11 months....shuld still be under warranty

 

[mymmeryloss]

use warranty as much as u can until its up..

 

[civicRacer4lyfe]

lol my seats arm rest and door interior is fading into a grey color.. and my dash board hanging off my si seat for the back plastic hanging.. and my cars falling aprt no lie

 

[Suanico]

the warranty has already expired, and the sun visor is only on recall for the ex and lx models, bs
