Merging from a stop into traffic and suddenly a loud bang from under car and unable to accelerate. Able to move to shoulder while coasting. Failure was found to be the passenger side driveshaft. The CVT version of my car has an open recall, but mine is a manual. Seems like an attempt to carve out part of the recall to save a buck by Honda.
