My car drives fine sometimes for days, then suddenly it cuts off. The air and radio stay on. I know it's off when the "D" isn't lit. I was told it could be the fuel filter, but I don't know. It does it at slow speeds and high (65) speeds. It only does it about twice a week, but I need this problem fixed ASAP.

Hi joycelynmorris,

When the D light goes off, it means electrical power had been disrupted and is not a filter problem.

If other dash ights do not indicate as well, then the ignition switch would be the likely cause.

Were you able to restart?

There was a safety recall regarding the ignition switch and you can check at your local Honda dealer for more details.
