MY WIFE WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT LOCAL FESTIVAL.AS SHE TURNED INTO THE SPACE AND WITH HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE,THE CAR SURGED FORWARD SLAMMING INTO A TREE.THERE WAS EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE.I WAS FOLLOWING IN ANOTHER VEHICLE.HONDA REPLACED A PART THAT KEEPS THE ENGINE FROM STALLING IN SLOW SPEED WHEN MAKING A TURN WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING ON.THE HONDA MECHANIC TOLD ME THE CAR WOULD SURGE IF THE PART FAILED.THE MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP GAVE A SHRUG."I NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING BEFORE" I MADE A COMPLAINT TO HONDA CORP,NEVER DID THEY REPLY.I SEE THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS IN LATER MODELS. PS,IF THE TREE WAS NOT THERE THE CAR WOULD HAVE PLOWED INTO A CROWD OF FESTIVAL GOERS !
