Consumer Description

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED BUT WAS UNDER SOME SPECIAL EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY A CENT. BUT, IT FAILED, AND I AM NOT PLEASED. THE SECOND PROBLEM WHICH IS MY MAJOR COMPLAINT IS THAT I AM BEING TOLD THAT I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION ON A CAR THAT ONLY HAS 83K MILES ON IT! HONDA KNOWS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH 98 - 01 ACCORD MODELS, BUT ONLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 00-01 MODELS. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD BE FORCE TO DO A RECALL! IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA I-5 WITH A CAR THAT DOESN'T SHIFT PROPERLY. PLEASE HELP ALL US 98-99 HONDA ACCORD OWNERS.
