The car engine stalls while driving soon after starting. It will happen typically while the car starts hot, either if the weather is hot or if the car was already warm from driving. The engine will also fail to stay started unless I turn the starter engine over a few times extra. I believe this is a result of the faulty ignition switch which was recalled for similar vehicle models.

I took my Honda Civic 2002 into condon auto in sioux city, iowa, for a light switch recall. The recall was completed. I drove the car home. Tried to start the car again and no starter. $350 later they replaced wires to the starter and the car runs again. It is possible this was a coincidence but beware having recalls done at this location.

Since 2011 this car has been cutting out while driving. The speed could be anywhere from 30 mph on a street or 70 mph on the highway. This complete "powering off" has caused me near misses and accidents many times. Since purchasing this car in 2007, I have had the distributor replaced 3 times; as we thought that was the reason for the failures. It was not. Very recently (in the month of January) the car cut out so many times while driving and it became such a safety issue I brought it my mechanic and told him I could not drive anymore until the root cause was determined. First, they thought it needed a tune up. I had all the spark plugs, wires, etc replaced. The car still powered off while driving. Then, I had the distributor replaced again. The car still cut out. The mechanic then removed the starter and put a new one in and it solved the problem. Since then I've read online this has been a continuous problem with this model and I am going to pursue getting my money back for all the work done to the car this month. I kept the starter and the key if needed for evidence.
1. The car would not turn over when you turn the key after the car had been driving for a while. 2. Came out one morning and car would not turn over called aaa and dealer, checked the battery green light was bright got car to start and went to dealer, 3. They said starter was bad and replaced with a new one under warranty. About 3 to 4 weeks later problem came back and was able to start car and took to dealer again and this time they could not find any problem they just noted it and awaiting for the issue to happen again.

Consumer states that dealership is charging to reconnect vehicle starter system after disconnecting to do recall repair. *mrrecall repair was for a faulty ignition switch.
When the car was 2 weeks old, we returned from a drive and found the car would not shut off, even with the ignition in the "off" position and the key removed. The engine sounded as though it was trying to start itself, even though it was still running. I put the key back in and turned it to the "on" position, at which point the unusual noise disappeared, and the car seemed to idle normally. I turned it off again, and the noise returned as the car kept running. I turned the key on and off a few times before the engine finally stopped. As I got out of the car, I noticed smoke rising from under the hood. I opened the hood and saw that a fire was burning on the starter and the nearby rubber hoses. I unsuccessfully tried to blow out the flames, which we put out using a fire extinguisher from our apartment building, which we were parked in front of. All damaged parts were replaced by the dealership service department, although there is still a burnt smell evident after driving the car. I informed Honda of the problem through their "new owner survey" and a letter to their customer relations zone office.
