I am pretty sure I need to replace my ignition switch. It wants to pop out of the position that keeps the car running. Once I had to hold the key in place while driving. It does not do it all the time. What does it cost to have something like that replaced or repaired?

I was searching for answers regarding possible ignition switch problems and came across an official recall from Honda for ignition switches on Civics, Accords, Prelude, CR-V and Odyssey. Certain 1997-2000. The recall was dated 2002 so it may be too late and I haven't validated the recall yet, but it looked official on-line. Go to the official Honda webiste, click on owner link to see if your car falls under the recall. You will need your VIN number. Hope this helps.
