This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
(1) I was driving home and my 95' Acura Integra 4 door gsr died on the highway (2)if I tried to start the car, it would start then die as I let the key go. I found that if I held the key close to III then the engine would stay on. I got home and took apart the ignition harness and noticed that there was a spot where the contact point was pitted. That's when I figured the ignition harness switching mechanism (by the key ignition cylinder) was not getting good contact. (3) I tried to sand off the pitted part and put a layer of solder over it, but it still dies after a while. Then I would have to do it again. I'm temporary doing this till I can afford a new ignition harness.
