THE CAR WORKED FINE FOR SEVERAL YEARS UNTIL ABOUT 30,000 MILES IN, MY HYBRID BATTERY STARTED TO RANDOMLY DRAIN AND RECHARGE. THE FREQUENCY OF OCCURANCES HAS INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE POINT THAT I CAN EXPECT IT TO DRAIN AND RECHARGE ABOUT 1 TO 2 TIMES A DAY. THE WHOLE DRAIN/RECHARGE PROCESS TAKES ABOUT 7 TO 10 MINUTES, AND WITH A 20 MINUTE COMMUTE EACH WAY, I AM SPENDING ABOUT HALF OF THE TIME DRIVING WITHOUT THE ASSIST OF THE BATTERY. THE IMPACT IS AS FOLLOWS:    1) LOWER MPG  2) SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACTED PERFORMANCE TO THE POIN THAT THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO ACCELERATE. THIS CAR WAS NEVER DESIGNED TO BE DRIVEN WITHOUT THE ASSIST OF THE BATTERY. IT IS TOO SLOW. EVEN WITH THE BATTERY ASSIST, IT IS ALREADY ONE OF THE SLOWEST CARS ON THE ROAD, WITHOUT IT IT BECOMES DANGEROUS. THERE HAS BEEN A COUPLE OF TIMES WHERE I HAD TO MERGE AND ACCELERATE HARD, AND THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE. THE GUY BEHIND ME HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES IN ORDER NOT TO CRASH INTO MY CAR.    I NOW HAVE 55,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. THEY RECOGNIZED THE ISSUE, BUT SAID THAT UNLESS SOMETHING COMES UP ON THE DISPLAY (WARNINGS, ERRORS, ALERTS), THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM.     I AM REPORTING THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I WANT HONDA TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR A DESIGN DEFECT THAT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.  *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2007","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"CIVIC HYBRID","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
