Consumer Description

I OWN A 2000 MODEL 5 SPEED HONDA INSIGHT. PERIODICALLY, AND WITH NO PATTERN OF PREDICTABILITY, THE ELECTRIC ASSIST PORTION OF THE HYBRID ELECTRIC MOTOR/ GAS ENGINE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS POWER IS GREATLY DIMINISHED, DANGEROUSLY SO IN SOME CASES: I.E. WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH FAST MOVING FREEWAY TRAFFIC, CLIMBING A STEEP GRADE, ACCELERATING FROM A STOP.
