Default Recalibration Every Day

My 2007 Civic's IMA has been recalibrating more and more frequently. It now recalibrates every day!

I took it in to the dealer who said unless/until it throws a code there is nothing they can do. American Honda had the audacity to say this was normal. They also told me they were unaware of other people having similar problems, which based on the threads on this forum, can't be true.

I'd like to hear from others about how often their IMA recalibrates to get a better idea of what is normal.

About once a day I see a drop from 4 to 2 bars, followed by force regen to 4 bars and then a jump to 8. Struggling to get 40-41mpg. Was easily 45-48 when new. 2007 HCHII with 60k

Before the battery pack rebuild, recal every five or ten miles. Yep... THAT OFTEN! After pack rebuild... maybe once a day. I'll know more as we use it.

On a 2.1 mile trip to work I see 2 recals...yes that means 1 recal per mile. I used to love my car so much.

Anyway, just replaced my wife's car with a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. Good by Honda!
