(1) the car had no prior problems leading up to the incident. (2) a serious fire in the engine compartment caused serious damage to the engine compartment, exterior paint, and A/C and eletrical system. The hood release no longer works either. (3) no corrective measures(as far as repairs) have been taken. My first action was to contact the bbb and nhts.
The SRS light failed and the 02 senor emission light replaced. The timing belt, water pump and belts were replaced. *bf the battery was found bad.
Key can be removed from ignition while car is in park.
After the ignition switch repair (recall # 96v217000) was performed by the dealership, the defect recurred. Please provide further information.

The ignition switch on my 1995 honda accord lx failed. This is a failure which is covered under other years, but not my 1995.
Intermittent failure of engine to start, starter cranks normally. Dashboard lights and power windows fail to operate in "on" position of ignition switch. Removal and replacement of "fuel pump fuse" corrects problem (fuse is not blown). Operates normally for months and then fails. Serious hazard if engine stops while vehicle is on the road.
Upon parking at the mall today, I parked next to another, 1995 honda accord/ 4- door. The lady inside asked, was that noise my car lock, she showed me that hers was the same, we also have problems with our antenna's, and windows. This is not a real how often do you meet someone with the same problems?( we both have two windows,two doors locks, and antennas problems) and the same model and year. I just wonder how many others have this problem????? And are not complaining.
At about 100,000 miles started having trouble with various electrical displays: gear shift indicator doesn't light unless you hit it hard with your hand. Inside console lights not showing unless you jiggle the headlight switch turn knob. Clock display fails to light unless you press the display button on clock.
I believe a faulty ignition switch is causing this and it is currently being recalled on models 1997 and newer. I would like to see this recall extended at least to the 1995 model. My car experiences the exact same problems. I'll be traveling along and the engine just quietly shuts down. I'm afraid of driving it for fear that the engine might quit when I try to pass another car or make a turn at an intersection. Thank you for your attention to this. Jason fritz.

On thursday may 10, 2001 around 12:05 pm, the starter on our 1995 honda accord (@76,000 miles) engaged while no one or the key was in the car.

The engine compartment hood was raised to find the starter and cables in flames. A hand held co2 fire extinguisher was used to put out the fire twice.
