Unhappy Stutter/Shudder electrical problem?

Hello all,

I have a Honda fit with 280,000Km on it so far. Recently, the car starts to shudder or stutter (on acceleration and constant-speed) like it's losing power for a split-second or the engine is acting weirdly. This happens every now and then and not constantly (for example, not on the way to a mall, but on the way back.)

Sometimes it is accompanied by the airbags light turning on but not always.

Before I take it to a garage, I'd like to know if anyone faced this before or has some insight about this problem.

Thank you!

Do a search here on ignition coils. Other than the airbag light, your symptoms sound very much like a coil problem.
