Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 PILOT HONDA WITH ONGOING SHUDDERING BETWEEN 30-40 MPH. AT FIRST I THOUGH IT WAS THE AIR FLOW UNDER THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE PVC MOLDING. AFTER CHECKING I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM (TORQUE CONVERTER) THE SHUDDER BEGAN AT 75,000 AND THE VEHICLE NOW HAS125,000 MILES. TO MAKE THE SHUDDER STOP I PRESS OR RELEASE THE ACCELERATOR BRIEFLY. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOW STARTING TO SHIFT HARD INTO SECOND GEAR. I WILL CONTACT HONDA OF NORTH AMERICA NEXT TO DISCUSS THEIR FINDINGS WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR
