CAR IS SLUGGISH UP HILLS AND IS NOW STALLING AROUND TURNS WITH POWER STEERING GOING OFF. CAR IS A 5SPEED AND WHEN PUT ON GAS IT RESTARTS. MECHANIC REPLACED SPARK PLUGS AND CRANK SENSOR BUT PROBLEM GOT WORSE. WONDERING IF IGNITION SWITCH COULD BE ISSUE AS I SEE IT WAS AN ISSUE ON OTHER CIVIC MODELS. MECHANIC BOTH AT HONDA AND OUR PERSONAL COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG AND PROBLEM KEEPS COMING UP DESPITE SUPPOSED FIXING. WE'VE SPENT OVER $1,000 ALREADY TRYING TO FIX IT.

CAR STALLS OUT AFTER HIGHER SPEED DRIVING, USUALLY COMING TO A HARD STOP, REQUIRING ME TO RESTART. ONCE IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, SO IT WAS A BIT SCARY, A SAFETY CONCERN. USUALLY WHILE COMING TO A STOP IS WHEN IT OCCURS EXITING FREEWAYS. I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO FIX, BUT THEY TELL ME MY VIN IS NOT AFFECTED BUT MY MAKE MODEL AND YEAR ARE,NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 02V120000, AND MY CAR HAS THE SYMPTOMS OF AN IGNITION PROBLEM. ALSO THE IGNITION SWITCH IS ROUGH AND SOMETIMES THE KEY JAMS. NOTE THAT IT COULD BE THAT ITS PAST 15 YEARS SINCE THE RECALL NOTICE WENT OUT, BUT I NEVER RECEIVED THE NOTICE. I FEEL THEY ARE LIABLE FOR THIS REPAIR, I NEVER GOT. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FOOT THE BILL AND HOPE FOR A REIMBURSEMENT AS WAS SUGGESTED BY THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO COMPEL THEM TO FIX IT, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE WAS ON 02/25/18 EXITING THE FREEWAY AND COMING TO A STOP.
