Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ALL WARNING LIGHTS ACTIVATED CYCLING THROUGH EACH OF THEM. THE VEHICLE LOST ALMOST ALL POWER CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE AND POTENTIALLY FATAL CONDITION. SEVERAL TRANSMISSION AND OTHER CODES WERE NOTED FOLLOWING THE INCIDENT. HONDA TECH LINE ADMITTED THAT THIS CONDITION WAS KNOWN TO THEM VERY WELL BUT REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM UNLESS IT OCCURS REPEATEDLY. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE ALREADY BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE NTSB.
