I have had continuous problems with my 2001 Honda Accord with the emergency lights. First the emergency brake light wouldn't turn off, and the dealership supposedly fixed it. It came on again just a few weeks later. I ended up taking it to another shop to be fixed. The srs light kept coming on, and it was suppose to be fixed. Now it has come on and stayed on, and the dealership refuses to take care of it without charging me an exorbitant amount just to a diagnostic test. I think they should fix these problems at not cost to the customer.
On 4 seperate occasions, I have been driving the car under 35 mph, when the instruments on the dashboard lit up and the car lost all power including the power steering. Today I was almost rear ended when it happened. All the events have been within the last year. I have also noticed that the radio has been skipping stations the last several days. The instrument panel that controls the clock does not work at longer. The most concerning issue is losing power as I'm driving, wondering if the person behind me is going to stop after applying the brakes and putting on my emergency signals. I am not the first person that have had this problem with the 2001 model. Someone needs to look into the situation to determine what is causing the problem and issue a notice before someone dies when the car loses power.
