Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving home from work at the kennedy space center on sr 405, the engine suddenly shut off and could not be restarted. Hot melted solder from the ignition switch dripped on my foot burning me as I was trying to maintain control of the vehicle and come to a safe stop off the road. The car could not be restarted and had to be towed to a repair shop. The ignition switch had failed, overheated, melted and had to be replaced.”
NHTSA complaint #10161455, filed 2006-07, 173,672 miles“On my 1995 Honda Odyssey, the electrical part of it has caused our vehicle to stop running for no reason while we are driving - that has happened to us twice in the last six days. Also, when we turn the key to start the vehicle, none of the instrument lights will come on. In reading other things, my problem sounds just like the problem that brought about the 1997 model year ignition switch recall.”
NHTSA complaint #10060574, filed 2004-03, 135,000 miles“1995 Honda Odyssey : ignition switch problem: I wrote Honda motors and advised them that my Honda dealer believes I have an ignition switch that should be subject to the NHTSA campaign no 02v120000 due to the nature of the failure. I received a letter back from Honda on may 20, 2003 stating that my warranty expired and we will be unable to offer any assistance . Due to the nature of the failure of my ignition switch being the same as described in your recall campaign, I believe Honda should be required to reimburse me the $170.63 that I personally spent to replace my faulty switch. …”
