In august my 1994 acura integra ls stopped running. The motor fired but would not run. After several attempts, it re started. A week later while driving the motor suddenly quit. It happened a third time and never started again. I needed a tow truck. I discovered it was a faulty ignition switch. This is an extremely dangerous tragedy waiting to happen for integra owners. I would like to be reimbursed for the new ignition switch that I bought. My car was a tragedy waiting to happen.
A rep at the iihs suggested that I take this up with you. I have found it really difficult to cope with the LED headlights in oncoming cars. I really can't understand how their use was approved. Surely the need to see obstacles must be balanced with the need not to blind other drivers. My car is low slung, and my eyes take a direct hit from oncoming headlights of higher wheelbase vehicles, yet halogen headlights never bother me. I can field them without a feeling of retinal burn. Not so leds.
