Honda FK3 2.2iCDTi (current shape Civic), 5 months old, back in 2007, flat battery due to software fault in the ECU for the oil level sender. Required towing to Honda dealership.
This is the only car to have let us down like this in 21 years, even my awful company Vectra (circa 1998) managed to keep going despite its numerous and regular faults. SWMBO's temporary Focus did have an alternator problem but even this made it unaided to the dealer in 2006.
Convinced me the that Honda were having a bad day when they designed the current Civic, (assuming that the numerous happy Honda owners who placed Honda so highly in satisfaction surveys had experienced something rather better).
