GAS PEDAL STICKS WHEN STARTING THE CAR. MUST PRESS HARD TO GET CAR IN MOTION AND THEN QUICKLY LET OFF SO CAR WILL NOT GO OUT OF CONTROL SPEED WISE. USUALLY WHEN CAR HAS BEEN SETTING FOR A WHILE OR COLD OUTSIDE. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE IN PARKING LOTS OR ANYWHERE PEOPLE MAY BE WALKING BY CAR WHEN THIS HAS TO BE DONE AS THE CAR "JUMPS" AND THE ENGIN REVES UP. BEEN DOING THIS FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW. GIVING THE LAST DATE IT OCCURRED.*AK

PASSANGER DOOR DOES NOT LOCK CONSISTANTLY WHEN AUTOMATIC LOCKING SYSTEM IS USED. IT WILL ALSO NOT UNLOCK WHEN SYSTEM IS USED. IT WORKS SOME TIMES AND NOT OTHERS. I CAN PULL UP ON THE LOCK OR PRESS DOWN TO ENGAGE OR DISENGAGE. THIS IS ONGOING AND HAS BEEN FOR THE PAST MONTH OR SO.*AK

WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES A NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE REAR.

RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON IGNITION INTERLOCK PROBLEM. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR WHICH INCLUDED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE IGNITION KEY AS STATED ON THE RECALL, BECAUSE THE KEYS WERE WORN, BUT DEALER ADVISED CONSUMER WOULD HAVE TO INCUR THE COST OF THE KEYS AT $40.00. *LA *JB

TRANSMISSION SLIPS HORRIBLY; GEARS ARE ALL SCREWED UP; TORQUE CONVERT CLUTCH CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION ; ALMOST GOT HIT BY AN 18 WHEELER WHEN CROSSING AN INTERSECTION; WAS TOLD THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN 1999 V6 ACCORDS. *AK ENGINE ERROR CODE: P0740

EVERY TIME I WOULD ACCELERATE, MY CAR WOULD STALL THEN THE CAR WOULD GIVE A STRONG JERK.I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS OK, AND THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE ANY PROBLEMS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR LATER MODELS BUT NOT FOR 1999 YEAR MODELS. AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY OFFERED TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION FOR A RIDICULOUS CHARGE OF ~$ 5,000 SINCE MY WARRANTY PERIOD HAD PASSED.WHY DOES HONDA ISSUE A RECALL ON THE 2000+ MODELS AND NOT ANY OTHER ONES. THIS DEFECTIVE COMPONENT POSES A SERIOUS THREAT FOR MY CHILDREN AND ME.*AK

AUTOMATIC SWITCH WAS DISCONNECTED AFTER IGNITION REPAIRS, WHICH LED TO INABILITY TO TURN ON HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER. *LA *MR
