1991 Honda Civic Electrical system Problems

“1991 Civic that is having the same ignition switch problem that Honda issued recalls for in mid to late 90's vehicles. (intermittent current in run position) from a brief web search, I find that this is a very common Honda problem. Potentially hazardous. Car will stall unexpectedly at it's own discretion.”

“My car came to a stop going up a ramp after it began jerking . I had the car towed and repaired at my expense because it was no longer under warranty. Approximately 4 months later it happened again, it was the coil in the distributor and the driveshaft was bent both times. I had the car repaired, but was urged to contact Honda to find if there was an open recall I was told by shockley Honda that there was no recall, this was in 1996. Since then, my car has had thhe exact same repair 5 more times, and it broke down again yesterday. …”

“On five separate occasions auto completely lost all power. Three of these incidents occurred on main road streets, two occurred at about 65 MPH on the freeway. I had it towed in each occasion, to different repair shops since I broke down in 5 different locations. After describing this incident to a repair shop, the owner said that Honda has a recall out on ignition wire which is the continuous cause of this problem. How do I go about having Honda fix this problem for the recall. It has already cost me 5 tows, 5 mis-repairs, and almost a freeway crash. Thank you for your time.”

“Intermittent problems with vehicle stalling or not starting at all. While driving on highway vehicle stalled and was almost hit by a tractor trailer. Vehicle checked by dealer, who replaced fuel pump. However, stalling still occurring.”

“The consumer was experiencing problems with alternator. While driving, vehicle shut completely off. The consumer has replaced the alternator twice. The manufacturer has yet to be contacted.”
