Although hybrid batteries were intended to last the lifetime of the vehicle, some battery packs are losing power and performance earlier than their owners would like.

Civic Hybrid Battery IMA Problems. I have a 2007 HCH with 34,000 miles that has become unpredicable, unreliable and unsafe-and Honda knows about the problem but chooses not to fix it.The battery, especially after being in the heat, suddenly drops to no or one bar and the battery stops providing any assistance and won't charge properly either.m having the same problem when parked in the heat for a length of time. IMA battery goes down to 1 bar on display and motor loses power, IMA then fails to assist. Seems to be happening more frequently now. I have @ 26,000 miles on the car. The dealer finds nothing wrong when hooking car up to computer diagnostics.
