problem #2

Car had acceleration problems from the day I drove it, brand new, off the lot. Within two years, the car would slow down while accelerating. I'd have to pull over to the side of the road and restart. I've had the car "repaired" by three Honda Dealers and several independent mechanics. After spending thousands of dollars on oxygen sensors/pipes/converters, I just decided to allow the car to warm up before each drive.
