I understand. Don't give up! Sometimes you have to be a pain the a.. with the dealer service department and wear them down until they fix what needs to be fixed. The car is worth it!
As far as I know it needs to be an issue that can either cause death or injury, substantially impair the use of the vehicle or bring the value down. I don't really think there would be a big impact on value and I don't think the vehicle will kill me. It starts and runs. I mean maybe the transmission being very jerky but I've had them look at it 5 times and they say it's absolutely normal. I really don't know if it's a lemon or not.
Winner.
I'm not an attorney and have never exercised the lemon law but based on what I saw here on wiki there's nothing saying the issue needs to be fatal to the owner in order for it to be considered a lemon. It's mostly that the product fails to "meet standards of quality and performance." Sure seems like your vehicle could meet that criteria. Anyway hope you get a resolution one way or the other.
Can I ask what the fix was for your wipers? I had mine in once and they replaced both the sensor and the control unit. They're better now, but sometimes they will start wiping like crazy as the rain gets lighter.
First time I saw a 10G Civic I thought the very same thing: a redesigned Accord for 2016! Then I saw the Civic badge... Mind. Blown. LOL.
Have you by any chance posted in another thread about the issues you were having and the interactions you had with your dealer or Honda corp? I'm having svery issue you mentioned and then some. My car even spent 10 days at the dealership, only to be returned with a new A/C vent and told that everything else was normal. And as far as the grinding noise on startup they told me to bring it in of the sound was worse and became more frequent.... which it has, hence the third visit at the dealership with the same issues. I would love to know if you had received any feedback similar to mine.
