If so, you might wanna see this... it got rated "Acceptable" and the drivers seat tilted towards the drivers door (due to a weak floor pan) which in turn bounced the drivers head against the steel frame of the door (ouch) anyways... here..

The Civic/CRV did very very well in the frontal test though. IIHS conducts the harshest tests
