are you sure. I think your ignition switch was recalled. Check with a different dealership. My 99 ignition switch was recalled.

How many miles are on it? Maybe you should go ahead and replace the distributer, plugs and wires. If it is time. To me it sounds like the ignition switch.

You can also sign up with Honda Owner link and they will tell you if there are recalls for your car.

There was a recall on the ignition switch. If your dealer tells you there wasnt then Id say go to a new dealer because that dealer is obviously stupid.

Find a new dealer. Yours might have been fixed but either way your current dealer should have told you this. Unless you have had the car for a while and you know for a fact it was not. It sounds like you have had the car for a while considering what you said is new on it.

Good Luck.

I'm on the bandwagon. Those ignition switches were definitely recalled. Just go to a different dealership and tell them that you already called Honda of America and they said it was recalled.
