transmission problem

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO SPONTANEOUSLY SHUT OFF WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. SINCE THE ENGINE CANNOT BE RESTARTED WHILE NOT IN PARK, THIS REQUIRES COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT THE AID OF POWER BRAKES OR STEERING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND VARIOUS SPEEDS AND CONDITIONS. IT IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE SITUATION IN RECALL 05V025000. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER 2-3 MONTHS IN 2007. IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED IN 03/07 PER RECALL ON 1997 HONDA CRV. IN 06/07, VEHICLE STALLED TWICE WHILE DRIVING ALONG WITH ERRATIC TACHOMETER MOVEMENT AND VEHICLE SPUTTERED AND STARTED. CURRENTLY AT DEALER, DIAGNOSED WITH FAILURE OF IGNITION COIL . NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL. *AK

STRUCTURE

NO FALIURE HAS OCCURED YET, THE FRAME IS RUSTED AT THE A ARM BY THE STEERING KNUCKLE. WHICH IS POTENTIALY DANGEROUS. *NM

AIR BAGS

MY SRS LIGHT IS ON MY 1997 HONDA ACCORD, AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIX IT. ALSO, I'VE READ ABOUT A TON OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM IN ACCORDS, CIVICS, AND CRVS. *AK

SUSPENSION

WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND THE KEY REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION THERE WAS A LOUD POPPING NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE AN EXPLOSION FROM THE REAR RIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. THE NOISE WENT AWAY FOR A WHILE WHEN THE BRAKE PADS WERE REPLACED. DEALERSHIP SERVICED THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT COULD NOT IDENTIFY WHAT COMPONENT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM.*AK

TIRES

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED VEHICLE WAS RUNNING ROUGHLY. CONSUMER EXAMINED THE TIRES AND SAW THAT THE TREAD SEPARATED ON THE RIGHT REAR. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON THE LEFT REAR TIRE. DEALER GAVE THE CONSUMER A DISCOUNT ON THE FIRST TIRE, BUT REFUSED ANY DISCOUNT ON THE SECOND TIRE.*AK

THE IGNITION LOCKS WITHOUT WARNING. *AK

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR A RECALL ON IGNITION OIL RETAINER. UPON PICKING UP VEHICLE CONSUMER NOTICED ALARM SYSTEM WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLES DOOR WOULD NOT STAY LOCKED, LOCKS WERE POPPING UP ON THEIR OWN. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. TS

AIR BAGS

WHILE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, KNOCKING CONSUMER OUT TEMPORARILY. THE AIR BAG HIT CONSUMER SO HARD TO THE POINT IT KNOCKED HER RIGHT LEG UP AND HIT THE DASH CAUSING BRUISING AND A NASTY CUT. FOUR WEEKS LATER, CONSUMER IS STILL EXPERIENCING PAIN IN THE CHEST AREA DUE TO THE AIR BAG. WHEN CONSUMERS HUSBAND WHO WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, AIR BAG DEPLOYED, HE ONLY RECIEVED A RED SPOT ON HIS ARM. *JG
