I saw this has a recall, but when I typed in my VIN into your system it says '0 recalls.' I have all the issues happening for this recall and I was wondering how to proceed.

When vehicle is running, and in motion, the engine will suddenly stop. Once stopped, I can start it right back up. Touching the keys in the ignition switch may cause the same behavior.

See this link for full detail: http://www.visualimpressions.ca/switch/ my car cut out without warning on the freeway--repeatedly. After much false repair and frustration, I found above link describing faulty ignition switch that honda apparently knows about but does nothing about.

I am filing a formal complain due to I have brought my car onto the dealership aug 7, 2014 due to my car will stall in the middle of the road. I just replace the battery 07/26/2013 I have brought my car onto the dealership and they are claiming that there is nothing wrong. They keep it overnight and when I picked it up after 5 days it will stall again, I am trying to call the service manager in diamond honda glendale and they said manager is on vacation. I called corporate over honda in torrance ca. According to the case manager who will handling my case they will do further investigation. In my experience I have never been neglected by the dealership. They check on the system that there is nothing wrong. But I keep telling them to check it carefully what if something I got involve in an accident. Would I just be a part of the federal safety agency statistics when fatality results. My car has a problem and my impression I have the car maybe it is the car itself. It will not show yet in the system, because I am not yet filling a formal complain. I am addressing you this issues due to prevent further accident can happen on the road. I cant battle this dealership by myself I just need you helped and letting them know or honda corporate that there is a problem in my car. Thank you

This letter is a follow-up to honda regarding a letter I had submitted on february 26, 2014. June 10, 2014 I was contacted by a honda customer service representative regarding the letter outlined below and was told that there was no assistance available from honda despite safety concerns. I was also told by the local honda dealership that there have been issues with ignition/igniters with honda crvs (especially the 98 crv which included a recall in 2002 for this very issue) and that I can go ahead and replace the ignition switch at a cost of approximately $200 plus labor (for a known defect). I had this work done approximately a year and a half ago and the issue continues as the vehicle will shut down while driving and will restart after sits. Unfortunately, this is a vehicle that not only do I drive on open highways but my daughter drives as well. In light of the recent events with a similar issue with gm vehicles, I would ask that my situation be given additional consideration.

Night time driving hazard this is a definite electrical safety problem: I experience a complete loss of lights when I switch to high beam: >(1) my headlights turn off >(2) the hi-beam never turns on a complete black-out I was on a sharp curve in my first incident when I flicked to hi-beam. Fortunately my driving experience kept me out of an accident.
