Unheated Honda

Bob,
I have a Honda accord and the last few days my heater hasn't been working. When the car sits, the temperature gauge is at normal and I get heat like normal, but once I start driving my car the temp. gauge drops to below C and loses the heat and doesn't get warm again until I let the car sit. Do you think this is the thermostat that is having problems?
Thanks,
Jennifer R.

Jennifer,
It would sound like the thermostat is stuck in the open position not allowing the car to build up heat.
Good Luck!
Drive Safely!
