Common problems with the 2024 Civic
NHTSA's file holds 136 owner complaints on the 2024 Honda Civic. Owners named steering most often: 71 complaints, and half of the 12 that list a mileage came after 10,000 miles. A complaint can name more than one component.
| Component (NHTSA category) | Complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steering | 71 | 12 | 10,900 |
| Forward Collision Avoidance | 17 | 2 | Under 5 mileages |
| Lane Departure | 11 | 1 | Under 5 mileages |
| Electrical System | 8 | 1 | Under 5 mileages |
| Suspension | 8 | 1 | Under 5 mileages |
Of the 136 complaints, 14 report a crash, 1 reports a fire and 9 report an injury (12 people reported injured). These are owners' reports to NHTSA, not findings.
Mileage when owners reported a problem with the 2024 Civic
The 21 mileages owners gave run from 500 to 37,082 miles. A quarter are at or under 6,000 miles, half at or under 11,000, three quarters at or under 17,000 and nine in ten at or under 22,083; none came after 100,000 miles, none after 150,000 and none after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2024 Civic wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: all 21 came at or under 100,000 miles, so they say nothing about how many miles a 2024 Civic can cover.
Complaint mileage also follows a model year's age: the 2024 has had less time to cover miles than older years, so its figures will rise as it ages.
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Lowest mileage listed | 500 miles |
| 25th percentile | 6,000 miles |
| Median (50th percentile) | 11,000 miles |
| 75th percentile | 17,000 miles |
| 90th percentile | 22,083 miles |
| Highest mileage listed | 37,082 miles |
| Complaints after 100,000 miles | none |
| Complaints after 150,000 miles | none |
| Complaints after 200,000 miles | none |
Every model year together: Half of the 8,312 NHTSA owner complaints on the Honda Civic that list mileage came after 54,000 miles (NHTSA complaints file of November 11, 2026). How many miles will a Honda Civic last? →
Is the 2024 Civic a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2024 is a good or a bad Civic: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2024 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 136 complaints, the 2024 ranks 31st of the 42 Honda Civic model years from 1985 to 2026 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2006 (1,459). The fewest: the 1985 (15).
The 2024 is a recent model year: it has had less time than older years to collect complaints, so its count is still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1985 Civic | 15 | 0 | Under 10 mileages |

2024 Honda Civic recalls
NHTSA's recall files of November 11, 2026 list 3 recall campaigns that name the 2024 Honda Civic. A campaign covers a production range, not every vehicle of the model year: check the VIN with NHTSA's free recall lookup.
What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2024 Civic lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2024 Civic.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 115 of the 136 complaints on the 2024 Honda Civic give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA names counted: CIVIC, CIVIC HYBRID, CIVIC HATCHBACK and CIVIC HATCHBACK HYBRID. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only these.
- Recall-file names matched: CIVIC, CIVIC HATCHBACK, CIVIC HATCHBACK HYBRID and CIVIC HYBRID.
