Zoom Extents zooming too far.
FRAMESELECTION <1>: 0
Simply type FRAMESELECTION at the command line.
Set value to 0.
When set to 1 invisible frames appear around blocks within a drawing.
This affects the Zoom Extents command.
When set to 0 the Zoom extents command ignores the invisible frames and zooms to the limits of your drawing.
cheers

I`ve had the same problem.
1. Yes, sometimes it is a layer turned off or frozen. Simply find offending layer/object and delete it then try ZE again.
It that does not work then try this:
2. If that is not the problem then some blocks have a "hidden" boundary frame around them (why i don`t know).
Simply type:
Command: FRAMESELECTION
Enter new value for FRAMESELECTION <0>:
or create your own macro ^C^C_FRAMESELECTION;0; and add it to your own toolbar.
I hope this helps.

Please see attachment. Frameselection set to "0" will turn off the frame boundary, then ZE Will work.
First copy what you want to keep with a basepoint Ctrl+Shift+c
R click > Quick Select > OK (some of the settings may need to be changed but i have usually just used the default that is there). > then delete anything that is selected.
Then paste your objects back ctr+v
zoom extents and you should be good
When working with Civil 3D Objects, it is highly recommended that you DO NOT copy and paste any of them. They tend to bring all of their related objects with them and really screw up the contents of the prospector with duplicate names. Besides. It is C3D objects that are causing the zoom area problem.

Zoom extents
worked for me.
I am working with 2015 and this seems to be done in a newer version of C3D, so I don't get the full C3D objects (just what comes through with the object enabler)
So it's probably some C3D object causing the issue.
Thanks for this, this was bugging me for hours and costing a lot of time and your response really did the trick. Much appreciated. So glad that people like you take the time to help others. Much Appreciated.
I tried all of the proposed solutions above, however none works, except this one. Simply copy your drawing to clipboard.
