I HAD BEEN HAVING SOME PROBLEMS WITH GETTING MY KEY OUT OF MY IGNITION IN MY 2002 HONDA CRV. SOMETIMES IT WOULD GET STUCK AND NOT TURN ALL THE WAY OFF, I.E., THE POWER WOULD STILL BE ON BUT THE ENGINE WAS OFF. RECENTLY THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION AT ALL. I HAD TO JIGGLE IT AND TRY TO FORCE TURN IT. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO HAD A LOCKSMITH WORK ON THE "TUMBLERS". THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR ABOUT A WEEK. EVEN WITH THE WORK DONE, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK TO MY MECHANIC AND WE HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE IGNITION LOCK SYSTEM. THE LOCKSMITH INSTALLED IT AND DID NOT CHARGE LABOR FOR THE SECOND JOB. AFTER READING SOME OF THE REPORTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WITH HONDA CRV'S, I AM NOW CONCERNED THAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE WITH THE GEAR...

IGNITION KEY ON REMOVAL FROM SWITCH IS VERY HOT ON MANY OCCASIONS

CONSUMER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR IGNITION SWITCH INTERLOCK FAILURE. HOWEVER, NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. *AK

CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO REMOVE KEYS FROM THE IGNITION WITH THE VEHICLE IN THE DRIVE GEAR. AS A RESULT, VEHICLE ROLLED DOWN A HILL WHILE PARKED. DEALERSHIP REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER, BUT THE PROBLEM RECURRED.*AK

HONDA CRV ALLOWED THE KEY TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHEN IT HADN'T BEEN PLACED FULLY IN PARK, IT WAS IN REVERSE. THE CAR THEN ROLLED INTO THE STREET AND WAS HIT BY A CAR WITH 2 PERSONS. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN REPRODUCED. HONDA SAID THERE WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT ON THIS PART.

THE REASON FOR THIS REPORT IS THAT WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MILES PER HOUR IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE. MY ENGINE JUST DIED AS IF THE KEY WAS TURNED OFF. I COASTED OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT I WAS NOT IN A FASTER LANE OF THIS FOUR LANE INTERSTATE, AS THIS COULD HAVE VERY WELL CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. AFTER I WAS STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER MY IGNITION WAS STILL IN THE ON POSITION. I TRIED TO RESTART MY ENGINE AND IT STARTED SO I PROCEEDED ON. I TOOK IT TO MY HONDA DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE. THEY PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER PLUS TEST DROVE IT AND SAID THE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND POSSIBLY BEING INVOLVED IN AN...

CONSUMER TOOK KEY OUT OF IGNITION AND WALKED AROUND TO BACK TO OTHER SIDE OF VEHICLE AND OPENED DOOR ON PASSENGER'S SIDE, AND VEHICLE BEGUN TO ROLL BACK. IT ROLLED OUT OF GARAGE, DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, ACROSS THE STREET, AND DOWN AN EMBANKMENT, CRASHING INTO SOME TREES. THIS CREATED ABOUT 10,000.00 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO VEHICLE.*AK
