1 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 07/25/2020

While I am driving my car shuts off. The radio and lights stays on but everything on dash is off, milage and speed. I have had everything tested but there is nothing wrong. In Jan 2020 I had this recall issue addressed at the dealer or at least I thought I did. It doesn't matter what I am doing when car shuts off. At stop light, turning the corner, on freeway. . . After car shuts off, I put car in park and try to restart. 90% of the time car wont restart. Pumping gas pedal doesn't help. Actually sometimes it starts and then just shuts off again or starting the car doesn't seem completed, maybe because my foot was on the gas pedal, car raves up but drops right down/off. I have been tapping the battery terminals with rubber handle of screwdriver and that seems to allow my car to start. Sometimes I drive 200 miles and it does not happen. It happens once in 90 days or twice in one week or twice in one day. This has been going on for three or four years. It is just happening more often this past year. Also, the recalled airbag is taking too long. There should have been an airbag waiting for me seeing how Honda knew it was recalled and I was still driving the car. My teenage son sits in passenger seat and now that I know of the recall I fear for his life while I drive. Covid-19 is no excuse. Eight months waiting so far.

2 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 11/05/2014

All the lights, radio, dashboard came on, but when I turned the ignition to start it wouldn't turnover. Also when I go to slow down or stop the car cuts completely off. It happens more often than it doesn't.
