I was driving on the interstate. My car started trying to go out on me like it wasn't getting the fuel it needed or something. I was going 65mph and then also when I stop at a light it tries to idle out or it does go out.

My honda1999 barley has 79,000 on it, im second owner. I bought it when it had only 37,000 mil. On it. The car is already having transmission problems. It jerks when driving and coming to a stop, like a pop jerky feel. My cooling system had problem in 2010 oil going into my radiator. And know I have electrical problem. The car at times would go off. 79,000 I cant believe it. You would think this my car was a Ford with their older modules. Known to have engine problems after 70,000. This is crazy. I have all papers from first owner, never realized till reaching the chaos of my engine. That my car as well was a recall. I have the documents.

  • Manual transmission
  • 108,000 miles
When starting from cold in the morning, the vehicle coughs and does not accelerate when the accelerator is pressed. After some time the check engine light came up. Vehicle runs smoothly after engine warms up. Mileage reduced from 29 mpg in city to 25 mpg. The mechanic said the check engine light was for "lean fuel mixture". he reset the alarm and said nothing could be done. Same problem has repeated several times. Mechanic says that he has seen several vehicles with this problem and Honda released a kit to solve it but I'll have to buy it. Honda should recall all vehicles with this problem and install the kit.

Fuel gauge never read full, on a full gas tank. Dealer replaced fuel sending unit, which resolved the problem. Driver's side seat belt gets caught on the release lever of the seat-back while seat belt is buckled. This severely restricts the of movement of the driver. When this happens, I am strapped very tight in the seat until I can manage to remove the seat belt part that is stuck to the release lever.
