IN SEVERAL SEPARATE INCIDENTS, WHILE DRIVING AT OVER 60MPH ON BUSY HIGHWAY, THE CAR ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OUT AND WENT DEAD, AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THE SITUATIONS ALL REQUIRED TRYING TO COAST TO A SAFE PLACE ON THE ROAD SHOULDER, STEERING WITH NO POWER ASSIST, BRAKING WITH NO POWER ASSIST, AND SIGNALING AND MANUEVERING TO SAFELY, THREADING OUR WAY THROUGH TRUCK AND CAR TRAFFIC TO SAFETY. VERY HARROWING. ENGINE WOULD RESTART IN 1-2 HRS AFTER IT COOLED DOWN. BY THEN THE CAR WAS IN A GARAGE (HONDA, IN ONE INSTANCE - THEY CLAIMED NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM AND PUT US BACK ON ROAD WHEN CAR WAS ABLE TO RESTART, AND CLAIMED THIS TO BE A MYSTERY TO THEM - YET, WE HAVE LATER LEARNED THAT HONDA HAD IN THEIR FILES SOME INTERNAL WARNING LETTER - (TSB 95049, ISSUED DEC 95, 'TITLE- DISTRIBUTOR, UPDATED UNIT) AT THE TIME OF OUR SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEMS (2012 - 2014). A MECHANIC TOLD US CONFIDENTIALLY THAT HE WAS AWARE THAT THERE WAS PROBABLY SOMETHING WRONG ON THE DISTRIBUTOR, AND WE SHOULD GET IT REPLACED. WE WENT TO HONDA DEALER/GARAGE AND REQUESTED THIS REPLACE, AND THEY CLAIMED IT WAS NOT NECESSARY. FROM THEIR VIEW AND WE HAD TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT. SO WE DID, TO SAVE OUR LIVES!

OFTEN WHEN I HAVE CRUISE CONTROL ON AND PUSH THE BUTTON TO INCREASE MY SPEED, WHEN I HAVE REACHED THE DESIRED SPEED AND LET GO OF THE BUTTON, MY CAR CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE AND WON'T STOP ACCELERATING UNTIL I TOUCH THE BRAKE PEDAL. IT'S VERY FRIGHTENING. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS APPROXIMATELY ONCE IN EVERY 7 TIMES I TRY TO USE THIS FEATURE OF ACCELERATING WHILE USING CRUISE CONTROL. BECAUSE OF ITS REGULAR RECURRENCE, THE "INCIDENT DATE," BELOW, IS MEANINGLESS. *TR
