99 HOnda accord

Shut off occasionally, but start immediately after.
Sometimes when I try to start it, it starts for 1 second, then
off.......same thing again, then 3rd time cars stays going.

It has a remote starter as well.

what are the possible causes

There was a recall on the 98 Accord, bad ignition switch, the switch
didn't have enough current capacity, and the contacts were burning up.
Don,t know if it was affecting the 1990.>

just made a phone call.....there was recall on 98's, but not my 99......but
I'm willing to wager that is exactly what is wrong.
