On multiple occasions for the past year, this car has stalled when you press the gas pedal. You press the gas, the car "chugs," and either slows down and has to catch up to itself, or it completely shuts off. It happens pulling out of the driveway, at stop signs, and intersections. We've brought the car to the dealership multiple times, and they can't find the problem. It even stalled on their tech once, but they…

The vehicle vibrates very rough when idle in drive gear. Specifically, the issue happens when the vehicle is stationary and in drive gear and all accessories turned off and when the engine temperature has reached its optimum (fully warmed up engine). The issue goes away if the rpm is raised (when stationary and in drive gear) by turning on any accessory like fan or rear defroster etc. This was a known issue in honda…

Over the past year or so, after i back my car out of my driveway (slight incline) into the street, i place my car's gear in drive. On two occasions, the car hesitated going forward regardless of the amount of acceleration to the engine; in other words, the car basically sat in the street requiring me to nurse it forward until the drive gear fully engaged. I am the original owner. I have taken the car to the local…

Bad vibration while the car is stopped in gear shakes the occupants. This vibration happens when the engine rpm falls to 500 to 550 on the tachometer. Honda refuses to do anything to fix the issue based on a fear of the epa and fuel economy ratings for the vehicle. Honda calls this a normal characteristic of the vehicle but our family currently owns 5 honda vehicles and this is the only on to exhibit this abnormal…
