Consumer Description

MY 1998 HONDA ACCORD IS HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I HAVE HAD IT WORKED ON NUMEROUS TIME WITH NOTHING ACTUALLY FIXING THE PROBLEM. IT WAS A HUGE WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME. IT HAS A HARD TIME SHIFTING. I WAS PULLING OUT ON TO A ROAD THAT WENT UP HILL AND ON COMING TRAFFIC ALMOST HIT ME BECAUSE MY CAR WOULDN'T GO INTO GEAR. JUST IN TIME IT JERKED INTO GEAR AND I FLOORED IT GETTING OUT OF THE WAY JUST IN TIME. THE ON COMING CAR WAS EXTREMELY UP SET WITH ME AND I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GATHER MYSELF. I HAD MY TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED AT JIFFY LUBE AND ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN SLIPPING. THAT EVENT IS WHAT STARTED IT ALL. FOR ALL OF THE COMPLAINS ABOUT THE 1998 TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS I CANT BELIEVE THEY DON'T SEE A SAFETY ISSUE. I COULD HAVE EASILY CAUSE A WRECK THAT DAY. *TR
