Consumer Description

MY 2001 HONDA CIVIC HAS BEEN GIVING ME SLIGHT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS OVER THE PAST YEAR. THIS WEEKEND, IT WOULD REV UP BEFORE IT FELL INTO GEAR. I TOOK THE CAR INTO MY MECHANIC FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TO HAVE HIM CHECK THE TRANSMISSION OUT AND I'M NOW FACED WITH A $1600 REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION. I DON'T DRIVE THE CAR HARD AND I HAVE 57800 MILES ON MY CAR. THIS IS FAR TOO LITTLE TO HAVE TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION. SCOURING THE WEB I FOUND THAT 2001 CIVICS AND 2003 ACCORDS HAVE THE HIGHEST RATE OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE, YET THERE IS NO RECALL AND NO RECOURSE FOR OWNERS TO TAKE. I'M A FULL TIME GRADUATE STUDENT AND ONLY WORK PART TIME AFTER LOSING MY JOB, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SHELL OUT $1600 WHICH I DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A KNOWN TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. BUT I HAVE TO FIND A WAY BECAUSE I CAN'T GO TO WORK OR SCHOOL WITHOUT MY CAR. *TR
