 Description of the problemMy vehicle had a recall for the ignition switch in 2002. My honda crv is a 1999 that i recently purchased. The previous owner had the ignition switch replaced at the time of the recall. I discovered that the car was shutting off with no warning while i was driving. According to the information on the honda recall website, this part needs to be replaced because summary: on certain sedans, coupes, hatchbacks, and sport utility vehicles, electrical contacts in the ignition switch can degrade due to the high electrical current passing through the switch when the vehicle is started. Consequence: worn contacts could cause the engine to stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. Honda is not therefore correcting the cause of the ignition switch degradation, they are simply admitting that it wears out prematurely and poses a safety hazard so they are required to replace it. It has now been 13 years since it was replaced and i believe that it has worn out. When i took it in to honda on grand, i was told that the ignition switch did in fact need to be replaced, but that the car also had a bad cylinder and they wanted $798. 00 to fix both with two hours of labor. They insisted that since the part had been replaced under the original recall, they were not required to replace it again. I am disputing this since honda admits that the part wears out faster due to the configuration, i. E., high electrical charge, and this poses a safety risk as it causes the car to die out. The car was only three years old when the part was replaced during the original recall, and they have already substantiated that the part is worn out. In addition, honda charges almost $300 for the ignition switch, but it is available on the internet for $40. 00, and it only required 30 minutes to replace. *js
