Suing Honda Corp over Honda Civic Rear End (rapid and uneven tire wear)
 
I need help finding at least two ex-Honda Techs that know that there is a problem with the design of the 2006 & 2007 Civics (ex) that causes the rear tires to create uneven and or rapid tire wear because of the design (geometry?)

I have had numerous problems and the service managers as well as techs are saying there is nothing they can do to fix the problem, I should pursue the Lemon Law, which I have and they are stone walling me.

So, I know have retainer an attorney that is willing to pursue a class action law suit if we can find the repitble techs to testify.

We know the techs I have spoke to won't becuse they will automatically lose their jobs,,,

Any help out there? I know this is huge issue, so can somebody help me out here?

I seriously doubt that he hasn't already tried this. If he hadn't done that he would not be looking into a lawyer....

I got like 22K miles out of my first Bridgestone tires off my ex. It seems like the outsides on all my tires wore out first.

I have an 07 Civic Sedan EX. My ride is terrible regardless of what tire I put on it. In addition, I don't like the transmission at all, automatic.

Seriously folks, been there and done all that.
Alignments, new 2008 arms, tires, rotate and balances, etc.
Still need some expert testimony, anyone out there?

Sorry I am not the expert you are looking for, but, I have a 2007 EX and have had the "upper camber control arm" replaced to no avail. The problem is when you put weight on the rear suspension the rear wheels dynamically toe in more. In other words, the more weight you carry on your rear suspension the faster you wear out the tires due to the excessive dynamic toe in.

You're not trying to blame the car on that are you? It's not like they only come in manual transmissions.

+1

and i'm pretty sure that this will happen with many cars when you put weight on the rear suspension.
