My 2004 Accord Euro 2.4L Auto has only done 17,000Km since it was bought new. Two weeks ago while driving, the car jerked and lost all acceraltion. When I looked at the display, the check engine light, VSA and (!) were lit up. I stopped the car, turned it off then back on, the lights went off and car drove normalfor 2 mins then same problem occured. I will appreciate if anyone can help me figure out what wrong with my accord. Its been barely used and I cant believe this sort of problem has occured.
The exact same thing just happened to me yesterday on a seven hour road trip from Atlanta. I have a manual V6 Ex four door, and I had to turn the car off and back on and allow the car to start with momentum while still driving for over three hours just to keep from have to rent a car and avoid a tow.
I have 58,000 miles on my 2006 accord, and I feel that I really got bit with purchasing this car. I almost got screwed with the third gear blow-out situation that Honda hid from buyers, but I caught mines while under warranty; still, I'm holding it against them with the next car purchase.
This was suppose to be my traveling car when I retired, and I keep a second car to "save" this car from city driving, and it is primarily used for these kinds of road trips of night driving through the mountains in the middle of the night.
I've had three Honda in a row with no issues at all, but luckily, I'm a fair weather fan, and I'll stick with a brand whether they "win or win"... and Honda isn't winning in my book, so I'm abandoning them whether it is covered under warranty or not.
