Your car might be covered under the recall. I know for sure that many 1999
Honda Accords--they look exactly like 1998 Accords--were recalled due to
ignition switch problems. You should ask your dealer about the recall. If
someone knows the website where the information about the recall can be
found--please post it.

I don't want to embarass the person who did it because he's my father! Heh
it slipped. Anyway... He thinks he knows everything. I told him to stop
trying to start the car before we knew what the problems was but he's very
persuasive. I thought it was the starter giving up or with worn out teeth
since I had bought a less quality starter but after I removed it I noticed
the flywheel teeth are 1/16-1/8 gone and the starter pinion gear is almost
brand as new.
How much would it cost to fix it up? I don't have the proper tools nor time
at the moment to remove the whole transmission.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Re: starting problems
Yeah there's a recall for the ignition switch and the tranny. Does the
recall mean they should fix it for free if it's broken? If so, what if I've
replaced the stock one once due to problems and now it's broken again?

This does not sound anything like the ignition switch problem.

Viktor,
I don't know the answer to your question but when I asked the service
manager about it, he typed the number that is engraved on the top of the
dashboard in his computer and it showed that my car was not covered by the
recall. He may have been lying to me since I have a 1999 Accord. I made a
hard copy of the items from the web site related to the recall and will
use them if I ever have problems with my ignition switch. The service
manager at your dealership should be able to answer your questions. Ask
for a hard copy of anything he finds on his computer related to your
vehicle.
