The ima system on my 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid goes throught what I call a disscharge cycle mostly in warmer weather. This culminates in lose of all ima functions. I my case this lose is brief. It however make the opperation of the vehicle erratic. Honda has made no real attempt to get to the bottom. Of this problem. Honda should buy this vehicle back at full retail value since it will be difficult to sell. I my state if I pursued this in small claims court I could be intitled to three times the damge.
