Check Engine Light On problems of the 1999 Honda Accord

Since 2006 the car has been stalling (rpm's drop to zero and car turns off) started by stalling while on the freeway but would start right back up within seconds would happen once every 3 months. Recently, the problem has accured everyday some time 3 times a day. I could be at a complete stop or on the freeway and the cars' rpm's just drop and all the lights battery light, oil light, check engine light, door and truck light turns on but the radio and a/c stay on. I have almost been rear ended on several occasions and have almost been run over by other motorist trying to push the car out of traffic. I contacted Honda headquarters and they told me that there were no recalls on my car and told me it sounded like the ignition switch. So I immediately changed the ignition switch and the next day the car stalled again. I called Honda they told me that the tumbler for the key had been recalled and was replaced back in 2003. I bought a new key as the old key was worn and the car did not stall for over 2 months but yesteday car stalled over 3 times. I have had a diagnositic done which said it is the catalytic converter which my mechanic says is totally unrealated to the stalling problem. But I plan to have a new one installed soon. I really need to get this stalling problem fixed immediately as this is problem could cause me or my son to get into an accident and be injuried or even killed. And based on the internet forums I am not the only one having this problem with my Honda and Honda headquarters doesn't seem like they plan on doing any thing to fix the problem.

When starting from cold in the morning, the vehicle coughs and does not accelerate when the accelerator is pressed. After some time the check engine light came up. Vehicle runs smoothly after engine warms up. Mileage reduced from 29 mpg in city to 25 mpg. The mechanic said the check engine light was for "lean fuel mixture". He reset the alarm and said nothing could be done. Same problem has repeated several times. Mechanic says that he has seen several vehicles with this problem and Honda released a kit to solve it but I'll have to buy it. Honda should recall all vehicles with this problem and install the kit.

Mileage at start of problem,, app 60,000 now 130,000 in 08! I bought my 99 Accord with 56,000 miles in 2003. I was called about the recall on the ignition switch, and Honda replaced it for free, although at that time I was not having any problems. Ok I started having problems with my car stalling. First time was on i40 going app 75. I was in the outer freaking lane and it just turned off. I lived with this very freaking hazardous problem for a long time because I didn't trust Honda and money (just note one of the phone calls from Honda the man told me he thought it was my ignition switch again and that they wouldn't be responsible for the cost of repair this freaking time but later decided it was something else,!)I was in college taking my emt practicals with an ems system and was having to drive to another county and be in contact via cell phone with Honda, and borrow my dads truck!! they had my car for days and keep calling and asking if one of there mechanics could drive my car to lunch ,, and if they could take it home over night and so on, and finally said it wouldn't stall for them!!!!! I was !@#$%! they did another diagnostic test of 75$ and my check engine light wasn't even on! they also said I needed new spark plugs, I had new spark plugs and im not an idiot,, there was nothing absolutely nothing wrong with the ?!@#$% things. They also eventually decided that I needed my fuel system cleaned, because they really didn't know what to do and this is what they said themselves! they told me they wouldn't charge me for the diagnostic fee if I got the 120$ new spark plugs, mine were new and working very well. So of course I had no option. After reading s few complaints here and on other sites, I am seeing that they totally took me for over 500$ and that my problem was in my ignition switch,, im wondering if they snuck and replaced it again behind my back just to charge me for other !@#$% they didn't do. I hate Honda I hate Honda,, I want some ?!@#$% justice.

The engine light illuminated.

While driving, the engine light illuminated on the dash board.

Consumer states that while driving the check engine light comes on and stays on. Dealership cannot find problem. Consumer afraid to drive vehicle.

There were problems with the thermostat, brakes, engine light was intermittent, overheating, squealing while driving, the windshield molding at the upper left corner of the window, thumping noise while driving, maintenance light was inoperative, steering wheel vibrated, the abs light was intermittent, and the tires were replaced early. Mr scc.

While driving the check engine light illuminates intermittently. The dealership is aware of the problem.

My primary concern is the engine trouble with my 1999 Accord. When I need to accelerate the car "misfires" According to the gresham Honda dealership. This is where the car is being serviced. Contact name and number would be mark cawthorn @ 503-676-7070. I am very hesitant to pull out in traffic at any speed because I never know when my car will misfire. At times the acceleration sticks at both 2-3rpms. Basically, there is no acceleration. The check engine light no longer comes on when the car hesitates. The first two times that the car was taken to the Honda dealership the check light did come on. My car is currently on it's 5th stay with Honda. They(Honda and their technicians) seem to have no idea what the problem was. Hopefully the problem will be resolved easily and most importantly, quickly. I'd hate to be the cause of an accident. Equally as important, I have had a failure with my abs. While there was no accident, I barely stopped at the intersection while brakes locked up on pavement. I have had passengers in my vehicle on such occasions and each would be willing to give tesimonies to such failures as listed above. In fact, the Honda technician has also experienced the "misfire" first hand in my Accord. I may be a little difficult to reach with college and two jobs but please feel free to leave messages at either phone number. Thank you for your time, amber weimerskirch. (tiresize: w-10).
