Consumer Description

About a year after we bought the car the engines fail to restart after stopping, in some cases the jump start was required to get the engine going again. After it happened on the highway a few times we took the car into service and they said it was the battery they changed the battery which cost us a lot of money. After changing the battery it happened over and over again, we took the car again into service and they said it is not related to the battery and that they shouldn't change the battery in the first place. They said it's a software issue and they updated the software and we paid a lot of money and the problem continued. We report the issue every time we take the car to a car maintenance and they say it's a Honda problem and they can't help us (the service we go to is Honda car service). Whenever there is traffic we are afraid the car will stop and we will cause a collision. No warning lights before the failure.
