this may seem weird...but everytime i go to get outta my car..i get shocked...at first...i thought it was my clothes and oooO static no big....but it happens every time..

a lil bit ago we had a ground problem on one of our other vehicles and it did the same thing..you think the lil honda has the same problem or na???

DBLAZE

Many people with civics have that happen to them....hasn't happened to me yet..There is also some stupid *** JDM anti-static bar that you put on your car or some **** that is supposed to stop it from happening....do a search; you will see it....was only like a month ago or so!!!

If you buy that dumb *** JDM static bar, you can go to hell with it!!!

All 7 honda that I have owned have done it. Spray the seats with static guard. It helps for a while.

Just make sure you discharge your static build up before you go to fuel your car. Im not kidding. It can set you on fire.

*ponders on the JDM static bar*

I hate getting shocked too. I sprayed static guard on the carpet and that helped out.

VALET dude

man, tell me about it. my job is to park cars (valet), i get that all day long.......lol
oh and its not just honda, its every car.

kast

this sucks when ever i drive my girls car i get shocked but when she drive nothing happens i think her car is trying to tell me something

That happened to me too! Its the material they make the seats from. BUT!!!! I have a solution for you (this at least works for 96-00's). On the inside of the door there's that little pocket/handle (on the light grey part that's red on ctr's). Inside the plastic cup is a screw. If you touch that screw before you get out to the seat you will ground yourself and disipate the static into the door. Just make sure you are touching the screw as you get out of the seat. It's been working for me, I haven't been shocked since.

I used to get shocked all the time in my 98, but now it just kinda stopped, i didnt even do anything to try and make it stop.

that's static...depends on the weather too and if you walk in carpets, etc etc.

works for me everytime...before going out of your car, touch any door metal portion with the tip of your key. it will discharge the static.

or grip the top of the door after opening it up and don't let it go until your body is completely out of the car.

My Frost White &gt; Gran Prix White Si liked me. My Granada Black Pearl Si hates me.

Rub a balloon acrosss your head real fast before exiting. Helps me!

Just before you blow your load, grab onto some sort of handle, boom no static!

Try putting a dryer sheet under you seat and if it don't work well at least you will have something that smells good to put over your nose it your passenger has gas.
