Consumer Description

I TRIED CONTACTING HONDA TO SEE WHETHER IT IS NORMAL TO GET ELECTRIC SHOCKS FROM THE CAR. EVERY TIME I CLOSE MY DOOR TO MY CAR I GET SHOCK. I EVEN SEEN ELECTRIC WAVE. HOWEVER, HONDA INDICATED THAT IT MUST BE THE WAY I AM WALKING, BUT EVERYONE WHO COMES IN AND OUT OF MY CAR GETS SHOCK AND ITS ONLY HAPPENS IN THE DRY WINTER TIME. WHEN I STEP ON MY PEDAL THE CAR STALLS WHICH CAUSES ME TO STEP ON THE PEDAL HARDER. MY ENGINE JUST TURNS OFF WHILE I STEP ON THE BRAKES. I HAVE SPOKEN TO A MECHANIC WHO INDICATES THAT IS NORMAL FOR HONDA ACCORD 2002. I CONTACTED SERVICE, BUT THEY INDICATED THAT IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY AND IT IS NOT THE MANUFACTURES PROBLEM. I JUST WANTED TO REPORT THIS INFORMATION. *JB
