I have a 2008 Honda Accord at 48,000 miles maint has been done as required and recently the car has begun shutting off while driving stalling the engine. It is quite scary because today we were driving on the highway and all of a sudden it stopped. I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow but wanted to send in a complaint in the event that other Honda owners are having the same issue. It could prove deadly if someone is not near a median where they can pull over to.
