2020 HONDA CIVIC — Complaint #2095840

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR filed May 29, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2095840 (ODI reference 11663663) concerns a 2020 HONDA CIVIC and was filed on May 29, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on May 29, 2024. The vehicle had 25,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to New York based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as structure:body:door, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HONDA CIVIC cohort independently describe similar structure:body:door failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2020 HONDA CIVIC shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
