"SYSTEM STARTER" LIGHT APPEARS ON THE DASH. CAR WILL NOT START. SOUNDS OF GRINDING AND ALMOST LIKE A HISSING SOUND COMING OUT. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE PUSH BUTTON START. SOMETHING IS WRONG. HONDA IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT IT VIA ONLINE FOR A WHILE, THERE ARE QUITE A FEW CASES OF THIS IN ALL MODELS HONDA MANUFACTURES. IT IS A VERY COSTLY REPAIR, ONE THAT HONDA SHOULD MAKE A RECALL OR PAY US CUSTOMERS BACK. *TR

THE SPEED WAS EXTREME.CAR CAME TO A STOP AFTER IT HAD GONE THROUGH LANDSCAPING AND HIT ANOTHER CAR. CAN WAS TOTALED, PLUS SEVERE DAMAGE TO OTHER CAR. I HAD NO CONTROL AND BELIEVE IT WAS A MECHANICAL FAILURE.

I'M ASSUMING THAT'S BECAUSE OF TAKADA, & NO NEW RESOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM???? DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM SAID NOTHING ABOUT IT... ONLY IN AMERICA! !!!
