The d-4 green light blinks, & the speedometer "wavers" from "0" to 60 MPH. After about 2.5 miles (arrive at destination), turn off engine. Do shopping, etc. Afterward, when engine is started, everything works great. No blinking d-4 light. Driving home is normal. It happens again the next day, & days after.

The driver was able to resume operation with caution. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the failure was contributed by the ignition switch. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 168,000. The VIN was unavailable.
For more than 8 months my acura legend (1994) four door sedan has been inaudible or not working. The SRS light has been on for about 8 months I've been advised that the coil reel is out and that it is now in a condition that will prevent the horn from sounding when needed or at all. I've also been told that the drivers airbag and possibly the passenger air bag will not employ should an accident occur. This is not safe and I'm very surprised that the cost of a coil reel costs $687 from the honda dealer in pensacola, florida. My attempts to fix this on my own were hindered by cost and labor to repair this item. For now it is parked and not being used by this owner because the safety features that prompted this purchase are no longer effective. This item should be considered for recall.
A blown engine head gasket allows air into the cooling system. Temperature gauge fluctuates, and the cooling reservoir overflows. Warranty expired, and manufacturer claims there is nothing they can do.

J wish to complain about SUV headlights being too high that they tend to blind on coming traffic. Why can't their height be reduced to level that doesn't make them a driving hazard?
While waitng in a line and easing off the brake just a little, vehicle suddenly took off and hit another vehicle. Consumer stated airbags didn't deploy.
I was charged 139.44 for t stopper on 4-14-98. I saw a tsb on that item today. This was never mentioned to me when I took my vehicle in for 60,000 mile service. Am I entitled to a refund for this charge?
