Soo, pretty much holding up the general consensus on the car since day one? Car is great, infotainment and active safety is sometimes wonky.

Usually those magazines can tear a car up if it's going to break.

I agree, only real issue I have is with the Infotainment. The driving experience makes up for it, for now. All depends on if they can get the tech stuff right.

and yet no mention of the grinding noise...shows how mechanically inclined these buffoons really are...and the naysayers of "maybe the grind never showed it's ugly head." bs I do think it's a great car, but the future dependability is greatly compromised imo by this.

I've never had a grinding noise ('16 Civic Coupe, Touring - owned since April, 2016)

and you have listened for it in the past? my door needs to be open for me to hear it, and it has to be within a (30min to 3hr) period. anything outside of those parameters it will not reproduce the noise. also it never, never happens when cold started.

Rear deck was distorted on mine as well too and they replaced the whole shelf- no more rattle.

I am shocked with how common the green screen of death from the infotainment system and the rattle at start up is that no professional reviews have mentioned in yet!

Yeah I'll admit that is certainly odd! My new screen works so much better all around. I'm actually happy finally with my car now.
