While driving on the highway, gas pedal linkage suddenly disengages causing rapid deceleration. this has happened for the third time. after two previous repairs, the honda dealer assured me this would not happen again. this is dangerous as i was in the fast lane when the car stops moving. i had to quickly engage the cruise control and maneuver off the highway using the accelerate and decelerate buttons. *tr | |||
