MY WIFE WAS IN DRIVE-THRU AT MCDONALD'S WHEN THE ENGINE DIED SUDDENLY. SHE WAS ABLE TO STARTED BACK UP RIGHT AWAY BY TURNING THE IGNITION OFF AND ON TO CRANK THE ENGINE. LATER AROUND 1PM ON THE SAME DAY, WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 101 AT 65 MPH, THE ENGINE DIED SUDDENLY, THE 'KEY IN IGNITION WARNING' CAME ON THAT WARNS THE DRIVER NOT TO FORGET TO TAKE THE KEY OUT BEFORE LEAVING THE VEHICLE. THE CAR COASTED WITH ENGINE DEAD JUST A SHORT DISTANCE AND THE ENGINE STARTED UP AGAIN. THE CAR RAN FINE AFTER THAT UNTIL MY WIFE GOT HOME. I GOOGLED '1999 HONDA ACCORD ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING' AND FOUND A DOZEN OTHER DRIVERS HAD POSTED ABOUT THE SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THEIR HONDA ACCORD. I FOUND THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH IS THE CAUSE OF ENGINE SHUT-OFF AND THERE'S HONDA RECALL ON THEM. THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH IN NOVEMBER 2006 AT 135,500 MILES. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE CAR STARTED JERKING. THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED AT A DEALER AFTER HAVING THE CAR TOWED THERE. *TR
