Vsa light comes on and turns off intermittently..and at times it happens on the highway which causes the car to jerk and not run right when going above 2500rpm..then the light will go away but the cel indicator will stay on ...at my wits end and dont know what to do

I was just driving my 2007 honda element to work in the north end of seattle, and all of the sudden my vehicle started jerking and the check engine light, vsa and steering light came on the "triangle with a lightning bolt in it" it started running rough. When I would step on the gas it would cause the car to jerk and the speedometer would idle up and down. It was very intense. I would lift off the gas patel and try to let it smoothin out. It definitely is a safety issue. I looked online and saw a recall on the 2007 and 2008 honda element, over 68,000 of them. I went to honda of seattle and they told me there wasn't a recall, I then told him to look online and he tried to tell me that my car wasn't covered. He started to quote some numbers of what the diagnostic would cost and then they would go from there. I then told them to return my vehicle and brought it to my mechanic. The total cost to fix what honda wouldn't even though it is a recall is $450.00. This is unfair and honda needs to make this right!

When im going more than 35 miles the car is trying to stop. The vsa & engine light is on and took it to mechanic but still have the same problem. I have seen a lot of persons with the same problem. The odyssey has a recall with the same problem. Could you check if this a manufacturer problem. I can't drive my car am afraid something worst could happen. I had to buy another car and don't know what to do with the element.

Vsa come on when traveling on the highway, check engine light also comes on at the same time. Does not happen at slow speeds and when driving slow after it has come on, it will go off by itself as well as the check engine light. The code is not stored.
