Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was traveling on a major highway when i noticed the engine revving high. i looked at the shifter and noticed i was in s so i pushed the shifter into drive and the car died right in the fast lane of an extremely busy highway. i looked in the rearview mirror and saw cars just swerving, screeching ,etc. i did get clipped on the right rear, not only was i very lucky, but i was fortunate none of the other vehicles wrecked into each other. i have read both on this link and edmunds of people having problems with these 2005 honda civic hybrids dying when put into drive. i still need to take it to honda, but i need to take it to the body shop as it is not exactly drivable.*ak
