I filed a recall claim with american honda. The case number is 11536174. This was for a recall on the airbags. Also, there was a recall on the transmission. The transmission stalls and decelerates when getting above 25 RPM. American honda said this issue was a recall but appeared to be "fixed" a few years ago. But since this is an ongoing problem, I was assured it would be fixed. Jason, at the service department told me it would be "taken care of" but then, tried to bill me $150 for "diagnostic" fees plus then told the parts and labor would be an additional $800.we were given a rental car. About an hour an 20 minutes after dropping off the car, we were called to say the car was ready. Absolutely nothing was done. The glove compartment was still locked. They would have had to unlock it to make the airbag repair. American honda told me the entire canister in the air bag area had to be replaced as well as new air bags installed. Misltin honda screwed us! They also said these 2 repairs would take 6 hours. They fraudulenly billed american honda for 6 hours and did nothing! They were instructed to provide proof of the old parts to show anything was done! My car remains unsafe to drive, potentially causing the airbags to not deploy and the transmission to stall, causing a crash! I'd like my service to be taken care of by honda in manteca, please. Mission also billed american honda for our rental. There was also a recall on something to do with the gas pedal..a part or computer issue.

I was driving on a city street (not more than 30-35mph) and came to a red light and stopped. My car stalled or died when I tried to accelerate after the light turned green. I'm not clear if my car stalled or died completely as I was too busy trying to make sure other drivers saw my emergency flashers. I could not accelerate and engine completely went quiet or dead. Both the check battery and oil lights flashed. Upon turning off my car and restarting all was fine and lithe check battery and oil lights went off. The car drove fine and lights have not come on again since.

While driving to work, the engine suddenly cut off while sitting at a red light. I restarted the car and the service engine light came on. I immediately took the car to the nearest autozone and had a diagnostic report done. Report came back saying fuel screen is jammed. On the way home from work, the service engine light went off. When I started the car the next morning the service engine light again came on. I immediately went to a auto service repair place and they ran a diagnostic test. It came back saying fuel screen is jammed. The mechanic stated that it just needs to be cleaned . I made an appointment for the next day. The next morning, on starting the car, the service light did not come on. I went to my appointment and the mechanic said, some cars do that and after driving a while, it may not come back on.

When nearing a stop and trying to make a right turn, it will make a sound... Then keeps going before actually stopping... Increasing risk of hitting car in front. Also when on the highway, car will want to kind of stall out die. Maybe a short circuit or something that is defective.

I was driving down my road and notice my car keeps stalling between 3rd and 4th gear, if I hit the brake it stops and I can go on. I took it for recall last year and it started doing better but last month it is stalling and jerking at speeds between 30-45. It seems to be getting worse. Also my driver side window when I try to roll it up without holding the button it will go all the way up and then roll back down. I also have problems with the air conditioner blowing hot air on the drivers side if I turn it all the way down to where it says lo and a few minutes later turn it up to what it is set on then it will blow correctly for a day or two,sometimes a couple of weeks but having to keep doing this defeats having climate control option.

An abnormal noise is occurring in my vehicle transmission when I am in the secondary gear. The vehicle engine has and continues to occasionally stall as if their is a short circuit in the electrical component and transmission of the vehicle and vehicle engine which intermittently shuts down but comes back on before the vehicle engine completely stops. When the vehicle is placed in the parked gear position, the vehicle occasionally rolls until the parking emergency brake is applied. I do not want a failed transmission bearing to cause more damage to my vehicle transmission. I discovered this problem was recalled on august 8, 2011 for 2006 honda accord vehicles. Recall no. 11v395000, under "automatic transmission bearing failure."
