Air Conditioner problems of the 1997 Honda Accord

One problem related to air conditioner has been reported for the 1997 Honda Accord. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Air Conditioner problem

Failure Date: 04/22/2008

I had to split up my complaint because of the size restriction on the description field. In addition to the ignition coil problem described below I have also had problems with the srs system, abs system, wireless entry system, air conditioner, and the auto door locks (all of which are described in another complaint). For a long time the tachometer behaved randomly. It would surge then fall to zero. For periods of time it behaved normally. There was no pattern to the behavior. Initially the engine performance was nominal. Over time the engine began surging and stalling, not necessarily in rhythm with the tachometer, nor exhibiting such behavior when the tach was acting up. Again there was no obvious pattern. Finally the check engine light came on referencing a transmission code that referred to the ignition coil. Interestingly once the code was cleared the check engine light when out and did not illuminate for some time. The next time it illuminated it eventually turned itself out. I finally took the car to the detailer. The dealer said that the ignition coil was not talking to the tach and the computer could not read the engine idle speed. Consequently it was recommended to replace the ignition coil as it evidently had an electrical failure. I am still researching this problem, but it appears that other owners have had experiences with their 1997 Honda Accords' engines surging and stalling and in some cases causing accidents. This is definitely not safe and definitely unacceptable. As I mentioned before, I am through with Honda!!!!!.
