Description of the problem | While driving at approximately 60 mph without cruise control, the van decelerated to 20 mph on its own. The engine warning light came on. The vehicle was driven at 20mph for 1/4 mile and parked for 20 min. With the engine running; the van was then driven at speeds below 35 mph (engine light on), then increased to 50-60 mph for 6 miles when the deceleration recurred. The van was driven at 20 mph for 4 miles. Depressing the accelerator only increased the engine rpm, no velocity increase. The van was driven the next day at speeds below 45 mph (no engine light) with no problems. Problem codes identified as #2 & #6 spark plugs misfired (non-permanent). Honda service drove the van at 60 mph three different times for a total of 20 miles without any problems. The failure occurred after the van was driven 3000 interstate miles after nhtsa recall 13v500 (vsa) repair. The van has not been repaired--no known cause for the deceleration. |
