Car skips and hesitates when accelerating between 35 & 50 mph. Has caused 3 near accidents mainly due to being startled. Vehicle is unreliable and unsafe. Honda has replaced computer and oxygen sensor without improving the poor performance. Honda now takes the official position of "this is a characteristic of this model". I have asked that they take me out of the vehicle and honda has refused.
