Consumer Description

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS FOR DIFFERENT HONDA VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM: THE MECHANISM THAT LOCKS THE KEY IN THE IGNITION WHILE THE VEHICLES ARE IN GEAR CAN WEAR OUT. WHEN THAT HAPPENS, DRIVERS ARE ABLE TO REMOVE KEYS WITHOUT SHIFTING INTO PARK. I CAN TAKE THE KEY OUT WITHOUT THE CAR BEING IN PARK. THERE HAVE BEEN NO INJURIES TO DATE. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT I PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON EVERYTIME I PARK MY CAR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH MY CAR FOR SEVERAL YEARS, BUT IT HAS NEVER BEEN INCLUDED IN A RECALL. I AM NOT SURE WHEN IT STARTED OR WHAT THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR WAS WHEN IT STARTED. I CALLED HONDA TODAY WHEN I SAW THE LATEST RECALL TO SEE IF THEY WOULD FIX MY CAR OR IF I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT OR DIES AND THEY SAY TO CONTACT YOU BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT JUST INCLUDE MY CAR IN THE RECALL. *TR
