    American honda motor corp. Has refused to honor recall of the ignition switch on my 2000 civic, despite that the symptoms are exactly as described in their recall and model and year are consistent . They tell me my vin number is not in the designated sequence. The car stalls for no reason when stopped at lights, etc. This is dangerous, as acknowledged by honda in their recall description. *nm

Dealership ran several tests and could not find a thing wrong. Since then my vehicle stills stalls for no apparent reason maybe once every few months. Usually i don't think about it until it happens. I researched the internet for…

    When the car was 2 weeks old, we returned from a drive and found the car would not shut off, even with the ignition in the "off" position and the key removed. The engine sounded as though it was trying to start itself, even though it was still running. I put the key back in and turned it to the "on" position, at which point the unusual noise disappeared, and the car seemed to idle normally. I turned it off again,…
