On the NAV display, there is an INFO button and Trip Computer that displays
current mpg, miles left on tank of fuel, history.

Mine has reset twice now.  I didn't drive the car for about two weeks, and
today, it was like all was reset.  Even all the History was gone.  This is
the second time this has happened.  There was no loss if electrical power.
The clock was still right, and all my addresses are still there.

Anyone else experience this?

Neither our '03 Accord nor our '06 TSX do this and both have the factory
navigation systems.

It sounds like there is an intermittent connection somewhere, possibly
internal to the Nav unit.

Have you been to the dealer service department about it?

Just notified them, but I usually get faster answers from other owners :-)

I'd suggest turning off the "reseut on fill up" option.
I had the same problem with ym 06 acord, what I think happens is if if your
driving and then you park for a while the gas will settle and the gas gauge
wil go up slightly, and the NAV will detect that as a "fill Up"

After doing this I haven't had any problems, I just hit reset when I pull
into a gas station to fill up

Reset on fill-up is only supposed to reset the gas mileage indicator,
not history and such.  I have an '03 Accord with the navigation system,
I use the automatic reset on fill-up, and I have never lost my
information from the system.
