NHTSA complaint: 2019 HONDA CIVIC — SERVICE BRAKES
I OWN THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANS HATCHBACK SPORT. PURCHASED AUG 12, 2019. LAST NIGHT I EXITED THE VEHICLE, WANTING TO KEEP IT RUNNING AND USE HE HEADLIGHTS TO SEE- PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND APPLIED PARKING BRAKE. BRAKE FAILED AND CAR ROLLED ACROSS THE PARKING LOT. I RELIGIOUSLY APPLY THIS BRAKE. I HAVE COME TO THE CAR BEFORE IN SUPERMARKET LOT AND SUCH TO FIND THE BRAKE OFF, BUT CHALKED IT UP TO HAVING ALREADY DISABLED IT MYSELF. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE LAST NIGHT. HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. NEEDS ADDRESSING.
