The update is this..I started checking the front bumpers of this newly designed Civic whenever I'm walking through a parking lot and I can assure you the problem is not driver error. It is poor design. Start counting them yourself (all the cracked bumpers out there)and you'll see.
How is it not driver error, you or they obviously hit something, granted honda might have opted out for a cheaper kind of abs plastic to cut costs but they had to be tested at some point for some impact, granted im sure they didnt go around hitting parking curbs in this test, by hitting a parking curb your putting alot of stress on the plastic in an unsupported place and well study physics or common knowledge/sense tells you what happens next
