Consumer Description

When the auto engine idle is engaged (Which is the default setting), when you stop, the engine idle works as advertised, then after a few moments the car will totally shut off and place itself in neutral. After several failed attempts, the only way to restart it, is to place the keyfob against the start button hold it there while pressing the start button and holding the brake pedal. This cars maintenance has been completed on time and solely by the purchasing dealership. A battery replacement finally in december of '21 put the problem at bay for approximately 8 months and here we go again. Honda is also not being honest with the dealerships, this is a known issue just check the blogs. The dealer is the one that went onto google and started researching the issue. As for an accident, it's only a matter of time before this causes an accident, most likely someone getting rearended!
