“Takata recall 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid with ima and engine lights went off. No charge to battery cause the car to malfunctions. Such as electrical steering wheel stop working. Engine lost power and stop while driving on city street at stop side. I changed new diehard 12v battery and also checked and verified the ima battery is good (each cell above 7 volts). I think the car need to update software from Honda. Please help us for the recall to update software. Many people have the same problem and they post their story on youtube”
