Consumer Description

BATTERY DISCHARGES FREQUENTLY (CAR WILL NOT START) BEGINNING WHEN LESS THAN THREE YEARS OLD, NEW BATTERY SAME PROBLEM. HAPPENS RANDOMLY. DEALER COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM (EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENED ONCE IN THEIR SHOP). NOT RELATED TO FREQUENT SHORT TRIPS (DEALER SUGGESTION) AS WE TRACKED OCCURRENCE WITH DIFFERENT TRIP LENGTHS WITH SAME UNPREDICTABLE RESULTS. KEEPING BATTERY ON CHARGER DAILY SEEMS TO HELP, BUT MUST BE DONE DAILY OR ELSE PROBLEM REOCCURS. PROBLEM HAPPENS AFTER SHUTTING VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING -- CAN BE AFTER SHORT STOP (SHOPPING) OR OVERNIGHT (IN GARAGE). CLEARLY THERE IS A DEFECT -- SHORT?; RELAY? HAVE HEARD OF OTHERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEM SAME MAKE AND MODEL BUT DIFFERENT YEARS. HONDA DEALER HAS BEEN NO HELP AND NOW VEHICLE IS OFF WARRANTY.
