Honda has made a few tries with mixed results. They still don't know.

Re: 2006 Civic Hybrid Problems (already)
may very well be vehicle specific. They need to exchange it ASAP. Start b..ching, I suggest. Otherwise, they will not do much.
In fact, start calling Honda HQ in California...

Re: 2006 Civic Hybrid Problems (already) IMA, battery, and check engine light
I was told that some one from Honda Headquarters will be calling about options with the car. I also found out that they replaced some parts in the car, drove the car back to Honda Headquarters in Torrance, and today it is back at the dealership.

Re: No 63 mile bug report
Drove 400 mile roundtrip to Omaha this weekend and took two opportunities to check my HCH (in service 3 Jan 2006) for the 63 mile bug. I watched the instantaneous readout and the average Trip B mileage readout and saw no abnormal fluctuations passing from about 62 through 65 miles. Seem like this vehicle does not have the bug.
