THE IGNITION SWITCH TURNED OFF THE CRV WHILE DRIVING. IT WOULD START UP AGAIN IF MANUALLY TURING THE SWITCH TO RUN OR ON, OR AT AT STOP TURING IT TO START AFTER PUTTING THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK/NEUTRAL, BUT BEFORE THIS THERE IS LITTLE CONTROL TO THE STEERING & BRAKES. IT IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT INTERSECTIONS WHERE YOU NEED TWO HANDS TO STEER. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE MONTHS IVE HAD THE CRV. BUT TODAY, THE IGNITION SWITCH DOESNT SEEM TO WORK AT ALL.

HONDA CR-V 1999 DOESN'T SHIFT INTO 2 GEAR OR 3RD LIKE IT USE TO. SERPENTINE BELTS GO OUT QUICK. THE A/C ISN'T COOL OR COOL ENOUGH AND IT'S BEEN CHECKED. THE 'D' DRIVE SYMBOL DOESN'T APPEAR ANYMORE LIKE A FUSE BLEW OUT OR SOMETHING. AT TIMES IT'LL APPEAR AS THOUGH MY E BRAKE IS ON WHEN IT'S NOT. WHEN THE A/C IS ON, THE VEHICLE RATTLES AND OR JUMPS LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF. I BELIEVE IT'S A WIRING ISSUE AS WELL.

DOOR LOCKS LOCK AND UNLOCK ON THEIR OWN. STANDING OUTSIDE OR LOOKING OUT OF HOME WINDOW I CAN SEE AND HEAR THEM GOING UP AND DOWN. ALSO, THE DOME LIGHT FLICKERS OFF AND ON WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING. CAR WAS BOUGHT FROM A USED CAR LOT, AND DID NOT COME WITH A REMOTE KEY FOB. THE CHECK-ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN RESET TWICE BUT COMES ON AND HAS STAYED ON WHILE DRIVING FOR 11 MONTHS SO FAR. CANNOT OPEN BACK/HATCH DOOR WITH KEY, MUST USE THE LATCH INSIDE THE CAR. WHEN TURNING TIGHT LEFT OR RIGHT, THE WHOLE CAR SHAKES UNDERNEATH. OTHERWISE, NO PROBLEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY BECAME STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND FAILED TO START THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRES IN THE IGNITION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

MY VEHICLE HAD A RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH IN 2002. MY HONDA CRV IS A 1999 THAT I RECENTLY PURCHASED. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE IGNITION SWITCH REPLACED AT THE TIME OF THE RECALL. I DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR WAS SHUTTING OFF WITH NO WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING. ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION ON THE HONDA RECALL WEBSITE, THIS PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE SUMMARY: ON CERTAIN SEDANS, COUPES, HATCHBACKS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, ELECTRICAL CONTACTS IN THE IGNITION SWITCH CAN DEGRADE DUE TO THE HIGH ELECTRICAL CURRENT PASSING THROUGH THE SWITCH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED.CONSEQUENCE: WORN CONTACTS COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. HONDA IS NOT THEREFORE CORRECTING THE CAUSE OF THE IGNITION SWITCH DEGRADATION, THEY ARE SIMPLY ADMITTING THAT IT WEARS OUT PREMATURELY AND POSES A SAFETY HAZARD SO THEY ARE REQUIRED TO REPLACE IT. IT HAS NOW BEEN 13 YEARS SINCE IT WAS REPLACED AND I BELIEVE THAT IT HAS WORN OUT. WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO HONDA ON GRAND, I WAS TOLD THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH DID IN FACT NEED TO BE REPLACED, BUT THAT THE CAR ALSO HAD A BAD CYLINDER AND THEY WANTED $798.00 TO FIX BOTH WITH TWO HOURS OF LABOR. THEY INSISTED THAT SINCE THE PART HAD BEEN REPLACED UNDER THE ORIGINAL RECALL, THEY WERE NOT REQUIRED TO REPLACE IT AGAIN. I AM DISPUTING THIS SINCE HONDA ADMITS THAT THE PART WEARS OUT FASTER DUE TO THE CONFIGURATION, I.E., HIGH ELECTRICAL CHARGE, AND THIS POSES A SAFETY RISK AS IT CAUSES THE CAR TO DIE OUT. THE CAR WAS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD WHEN THE PART WAS REPLACED DURING THE ORIGINAL RECALL, AND THEY HAVE ALREADY SUBSTANTIATED THAT THE PART IS WORN OUT. IN ADDITION, HONDA CHARGES ALMOST $300 FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH, BUT IT IS AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET FOR $40.00, AND IT ONLY REQUIRED 30 MINUTES TO REPLACE. *JS
