In the last two weeks, the car would not start on four separate occasions. Have had to have the car jump started. I've taken it to the Honda dealership and they say that nothing is showing wrong with it on the diagnostic reading. They first indicated that an interior light could have been left on but then the problem repeated itself. Took the car back and was told that nothing was wrong. For that reason they say they cannot fix something that is not wrong. However, the car has not started on even after it has had two new batteries put in it. Something continues to kill the battery when it sits for a while or over night and they have no clue what it is and will not fix it because "nothing is wrong" with the car. Sometimes the car will start but the problem is getting worse. I have a car that I'm terrified to drive for fear that I might be stranded. I've also purchased a jumper cables with battery to keep in the trunk of the car because I am using my auto club too much in a short period of time and now they must charge me if they come out to start it. The Honda dealership does not know what is wrong with it and will not fix it.
4-cyl engine shutdown at traffic light while idling. Car would not restart, windows and moonroof would open but not close, shift lever would not go out of "park". By some miracle driver and car survived rush hour traffic at dusk with assistance from police officer. Car towed to Honda dealer who replaced 50 amp fuse (actually a multiple fuse) labeled "ig". Dealer advised by Honda to giggle wires to try to duplicate problem. Problem did not reoccur and dealer returned car after 4 days. Old part not available. I doubt that the fuse was defective and suspect problem will reoccur. 4300 miles on car, an ex.
