When I was driving my 98 Honda accord lx. I notice it shuts off itself if hitting a hard bump. Then I noticed online they had folks saying that the ignition switch was beginning to be a big issue. I nearly died after picking my 2 kids up from school the car shut off in the middleof the intersection.it-??s even a recall on the insurance app about the same part. Do I need to call Honda myself and I shouldn-??t have to pay out of pocket for this. Everything shuts off no lies no throttle until I shift in nuetral to crank vehicle

I was in a bad accident I was in the far right lane on the highway I'm going 55mph someone jumped in front of me I used my breaks then my car jerked right into the other person car causing my car to spin around 2 time on a 6 lane highway. The airbag never deployed the staring wheel was not turning lots of fluids leaking out of it but it was always jerking for some reason even when the mechanic says that's natural..

Takata recall? I bought this vehicle from my co worker which stated these issues were already happening for months, firstly the cluster clusters instrument gages do not work (replaced them and nothing happens), only the gage lights turn on. These include the gas gage, RPM, speedometer, temp. Which is another issue, the electrical issues even though you try to brighten the lights with the dim knob they are hardly brightened its hard to see the clock time or any thing that lights up to help see at night, the interior lights dont work, the horn doesnt work, cruise control doesnt work. As if all these are tied together thru the electrical wiring. (checked all fuses and replaced most) my wind shield leaks in the top corners, the trunk fills with water everyone it rains due to a leak. Defects in the sealing my rear view mirror fell off on my way to work today as well which caused the windshield to crack around where the mirror was. The hood latch is hard to close, I have to use pliers to push down the latch before shutting hood, (this is another part I replaced with the same factory part number) it looks to be the spring. Ball joints I am guessing... when barely turning the wheel either way you hear a grinding noise like metal against metal. Its a scary sound when making turns not sure if the wheel is you G to break off while making the turn a costly issue daily I have to add oil to the vehicle the oil pump gasket seal leaks every time the engine is running. Exterior issue the paint looks horrible due to the top clear coat peeling. Now after researching, I realize I'm not the only one who has these issues. Please get these issues fixed

The engine randomly shuts off while driving. Extremely dangerous! it is not the ignition switch which is the subject of a past recall. Honda does not have a clue about what is causing this issue and if you check the internet all kinds of Honda owners are experiencing this problem. I bet someone has already been killed because of it.

The ignition switch is faulty. The car will run and suddenly cut out and has difficulty starting. Most other models of Accord manufactured in this timeframe were covered under an ignition recall in 2002. I owned a different Accord in 2006 that was repaired under the recall. However, I was told by a Honda dealer my particular model is not covered under the recall.
