Car revs up when driving down the highway but drops speed to 10MPH. It has done this 2 times once in town and once on us 23 while driving 70MPH. Their are several complaints about the car doing the same thing to other clarity owners and this is a highly dangerous situation that honda should take care of! Reineke honda in findlay ohio had my car for about 3 weeks and while test driving it the car did the same thing for the service manager mike stevens.
