Consumer Description

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOING 70MPH AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING. CAR STOPS ACCELERATING I LIMP OVER TO THE MEDIAN. I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. THE CAR HAS A SOLID CHECK ENGINE ON ALONG WITH ALL THE ASSISTING LIGHTS ON. THE CAR ACCELERATES LIKE NORMAL AND WHEN I GET HOME I DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND EVERYTHING CLEARS ONCE I RECONNECT. IN ANOTHER INSTANCE I GO TO TURN MY CAR ON THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON BUT THE VEHICLE WON'T GO PAST 1500 RPMS AND IT'S BASICALLY IN LIMP MODE WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AGAIN TO GO ALONG WITH ROAD DEPARTURE SYSTEM, VEHICLE STABILITY SYSTEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING, BRAKE SYSTEM, ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, HILL START ASSIST, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL , COLLISION MITIGATION AND EMISSION SYSTEM WARNINGS ALL LIGHT UP. I DID THE SAME THING DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND AGAIN THEY ALL GO AWAY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A MONTH. AT LEAST 9 TIMES WHERE ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ONCE WHEN I'M TRAVELING AS EXPLAINED AND 2 TIMES WHERE IT GOES INTO LIMP MODE FROM THE START. TOOK VEHICLE TO A FRIEND AND GOT A P0303 CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE. HAVING DONE RESEARCH OF THE CODE NOTICED THAT 2012-2018 HONDA'S HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES ADDRESSED BY A BULLETIN AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THOSE VEHICLES. MY CAR HAS 70K AND IT'S CURRENTLY OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD. THANK YOU.
