Ignition failed causing the car to turn off on the highway multiple times, turns out there was a Ronda recall I was never told about. Almost caused me to get into an accident on the freeway, unbelievable. I called Honda about the problem at first they told me that it would cost $500 to repair, than I did some research online and checked there was a recall for it. I called the dealership back, asked them to check if there was a recall on my car... at first the lady said no there are no recalls, I asked to speak to the service adviser and told him I saw that there is a recall on the ignition and I need this repaired under the recall from Honda.
He said he will look again and saw that there was indeed a recall, and I could bring in my car for repairs free of charge! But the fact that they did try their best to rip me off for $500 to fix something that was under recall.
