    Ignition

    I bought a used 2000 honda civic dx that would sputter very quickly sporadically. It became more frequent as i drove it more. Now it will just shut down and have to sit before it will start again. This is very, very dangerous to me and my daughter as we work the night shift and have had this happen to us on the freeway. We could have been killed, or killed others if they would have hit us in the middle of the…

    Ignition

    When i start my car, sometimes it will start hard. There have been a couple of times where it wouldn't turn over unitl the 3 or 4th times i tried to start it. Also, after i drive a little while my clutch will make a clicking noise and in first gear when i take off my car makes a cluncking noise. Both noises are un usually loud. You can definately hear them outside my car too.*ak

    Ignition

    After returing to my parked car, i put the key in and turned the key, no dashboard lights went on and the engine did not crank. I turned it back to the off position, turned off the vent blower and tried again. Then it started just fine. Another time i waited 30 seconds and it started after failing the first time. Honda says (9/30/2002) my car isn't included in the ignition switch recall. It wouldn't fail for the…
