Consumer Description

I WAS DIVING DOWN THE HWY WHEN MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. I WAS PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AND MY RPMS WERE SHOOTING THROUGH THE ROOF, BUT MY SPEED WAS DECLINING, AS CARS GOING 70MPH WERE SHOOTING AROUND ME. THEN I CAME TO A HALT, AND THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD NO WARNINGS, IT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE MECHANIC. HE REPLACED THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION AND STATED IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE RADIATOR NOT COOLING THE FLUIDS, YET MY CAR NEVER READ AS HOT. $3000 LATER I HAVE A NEW TRANSMISSION, WHICH IS NOT MADE MY HONDA. HONDA FAILED TO PROVIDE ME WITH ANY INFORMATION ON THIS AND SEEM "SHOCKED" WHEN I CALLED THEM. *TR
