While driving at both city and highway conditions car will lose all power and shut down and coast to a stop. . Will start up again after 5 to10 efforts to start. This is interrmittent problem. You cannot predict when it will happen or how often it will occur.

Car shuts down- egine dies and all electrical. This happens while car is going down the road. I see there was/is a recall from Honda on this issue. Trying to determine if still in effect. Bought car from original owner.

Passenger side window was stuck in the open position. Mechanic (aaa-listed) diagnosed master window switch, installed new oem master window switch. This week, sept. 2014, less than a year after the repair, the same window is stuck in the closed position. I am reporting b/c 5 hours researching this issue online indicates the problem to be pervasive, ongoing and difficult to diagnose. Repairs can be very expensive, causing some owners to just leave the window closed. I can find no recalls from Honda. Obviously, an open window is dangerous b/c anyone can access the car or the driver. A closed window is dangerous if escape is necessary. I feel Honda should issue a recall and repair the problem. Thank you.

During the day the inside of my car had a burning plastic smell. Later that night, my headlight low beams would not work. I had to drive home with the passing beams wedged on. Today I took the headlight/turn signal switch off of the steering column. The assembly had started to melt and the harness connector that was attached to it is singed! apparently I am not the first to have this problem in a Honda vehicle. Please let me know what can be done.

Have trouble starting car sometimes,while I'm driving car just goes dead,have to keep moving the key to get it started. On going problem.

Intake manifold cracked and fumes came into the vehicle. Contacted Honda. It stated there were no problems with the vehicle. . . . . Alsi replaced spark plugs, and replaced a cracked exhaust manifold.

While driving air bag warning light continuously illuminated on the dashboard. As a result, air bags were inoperative and wouldn't deploy when needed, per dealership. Also, dealership reset five times the electrical system, but the problem still exists.

The problems I recently faced with my 2000 Honda Civic vp model:1. Transmission spontaneously skip gears and causes my car to jerk and loose control for a period of time. 2. When the car downshifts/slows down the transmission also skips or do not downshift smoothly, thus causing the car to jerk. Causes minor strains to the passenger's and the driver's neck. 3. Whenever I or my family get out of the vehicle we get static shock. This is extremely dangerous for a family who have a baby or children. 4. Car dies when I put the car in neutral and I loose power steering and other primary car functions. This uncertain event can cause potential fatality or serious car accidents.

There is a major problem with my Honda Civic giving off electrical discharges. There are other open complains on this and my previous car, a 1998 Civic ex, had the same problem. I get shocked almost every single time whenever I touch metal after being in my car. This is a very serious problem as I have almost had several shocks when trying to fill my gas tank! please help!.
