Takata recall I had problems with getting the key to turn in the ignition. It eventually failed. I was informed by a professional that it was the key. I had the key replaced. Honda tried to charge me for the key knowing that there was a recall. Too, my headlights have always been very dimmed. I have bought several replacements. They still appear very dim.

My 16 year old daughter was coming home from school in the rain and was unable to stop in time to keep from rear ending another vehicle. Our car sustained extreme front end damage. Fortunately there were no injuries but the air bags did not deploy. The entire front end is crumpled and still the air bags did not deploy. I thought my daughter was driving a safe car.

All dash lights go out on my 1999 honda accord when the headlights are turned on. A safety recall was done for this problem caused by a defected multiplex control unit on the honda accord years 2000 to 2004. Why are older accords not covered under this recall since the same defective part was installed on them?

1999 honda accord ex coupe v6 (california) engine stalls immediately when blinker/signal lever is used, for left or right turn signal. When engine stalls, green "key" light flashes on dashboard. Otherwise, failure happens randomly. Failure has occurred both while driving at 60+ MPH and while vehicle is stopped. At high speeds, engine stalls and then restarts in a few seconds. Has not occurred when engine was cold/not-warmed-up. Failure occurred about once a month at first, but in the last three months, averages about one failure a week. Failure started happening at around 70,000 miles. Car now has ~92,000 miles. Car has had one owner since purchased new. Car recieves regular scheduled maintenance. Car had complete tune-up (oil/filter,spark plugs, ignition cap & rotor, ignition wires, transmission fluid (honda), air filter, fuel system cleaner, etc...) after first failure. Alternator failed and was replaced many months after "stalling/blinker" failures first occurred, and had no apparent affect on stalling problem. Stalling still occurs, and have no idea what cause is.
