MY PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN YOU PREPARE TO COME TO A STOP, PRESS THE CLUTCH AND BRAKE, THE CAR WILL DIE. NO WARNING AT ALL. THE RPM'S WILL JUST DIVE TO 0 AND IT DIES. WHEN IT FIRST BEGAN, I KEPT A DETAIL LOG OF WEATHER, LENGTH OF TRIP, EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF AND EACH TIME IT DIED, IT BLEW ANOTHER IDEA OUT OF THE WATER. NOTHING SEEMED TO COORDINATE FROM TIME TO TIME. I HAVE HAD IT IN ABOUT 4 TIMES TOTAL INTO TWO DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERS AND NIETHER OF THEM HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STALL. THEREFORE, THEY CAN'T FIND NOR FIX THE PROBLEM.*AK
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2001-2002 Acura 3.2CL, 2000-2003 Acura 3.5RL, 2000-2001 Acura 3.2TL, Honda CR-V and Honda Odyssey, 2001-2002 Acura MDX and 2000 Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Coupe, and Civic Sedan vehicles. These vehicles may have received a replacement driver frontal air bag module as part of a vehicle repair. Due to a manufacturing issue, the replacement NADI inflator may absorb moisture, causing the inflator to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air bags in the vehicles, replacing the driver frontal air bag inflator with an inflator of a different design, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138.
