I have a 1996 Honda Accord which was suddenly stalling with all the power down for few minutes. After few tests my mechanic said the problem is with ignition key switch. After spending $600 plus the problem stopped. After researching I found out there was a recall for the same problem but for model year 1997 onwards for the same car. After further research I found that there were lot of people on the model year 1996 who complained about the same problem but whose car were not recalled and fixed by Honda. So I think Honda should all include the model year 1996 for recall or reimburse people like myself who had the same problem and whose car were not recalled and who ended up spending hundreds of dollars. Honda should have included model year 1996 along with other year for recall.
