WHILE APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AT NORTH LOOP 1604 WEST ON 9/26/09, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING.

IT HAPPENS ABOUT 6 TIMES PER DAY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON BUSY CITY STREETS. THE CONSEQUENCES ARE EXTREME STRESS AND FEAR FOR MINE AND OTHERS' SAFETY BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS VEHICLE WILL JUST STOP ON ME. THIS EXACT ISSUE IS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 02V120000.

WHILE IT MAY BE TRUE THAT NOT ALL OF THOSE RECALLS MAY APPLY TO THE 1999 HONDA ACCORD THAT I DRIVE, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 02V120000 IS EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR WHEN I AM DRIVING IT. *TR

IGNITION SWITCH FAILURE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, A RECALL OF THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS COMPLETED IN 2002 FOR SIMILAR PROBLEM. NHTSA #02V120000 THE VEHICLE IS NOW EXHIBITING THE SAME PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL, I CONTACTED HONDA USA ON 08/11/2009 TO SEE IF THEY WOULD REPAIR AN OBVIOUS DEFECT IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD ONLY REPAIR A RECALLED ITEM ONCE. SINCE THE REPLACEMENT SWITCH IS ALSO DEFECTIVE AND CREATES A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION, I WOULD HOPE NHTSA WOULD LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO HONDA'S LACK OF CONCERN FOR THEIR PARTS AND REPAIRS. *TR
