Consumer Description

MY HONDA ACCORD AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN ACTING UP, NOT SHIFTING SMOOTHLY, JERKING, ETC. THE DEALER HAS DIAGNOSED IT AS NEEDING REPLACEMENT. THIS WILL COST $4,500.00 THIS IS A LOW MILEAGE CAR I BOUGHT NEW AND THAT HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED WITH ALL SERVICE INTERVALS DONE BY A QUALIFIED HONDA DEALER (HUGGINS HONDA, NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TX) AFTER RESEARCHING THIS, I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS EXACT SAME PROBLEMS AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HONDA HAS A SERIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THEIR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS. I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED YET BECAUSE I CANNOT AFFORD IT. I HAVE A 20 MILE COMMUTE TO AND FROM WORK EVERY DAY AND I AM CONCERNED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL COMPLETELY WHILE I AM COMMUTING. *JB
