Vehicle experiences random events of power loss (ima battery recalibrating) that cause significant loss of engine power when needed (I.e. accelerating to change lanes, climbing a steep hill, or starting to move forward after being stopped at a light) these events have been recognized by Honda, but have been dismissed as "normal" events. However, these power loss events can come at times when loss of power can be dangerous.
