Consumer Description

WHILE ACCELERATING IN 2ND GEAR, THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO REV, BUT THE CAR REMAINS IN A NEUTRAL STATE. FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND THEN SHIFTED BACK INTO DRIVE. ONCE THE TRANSMISSION CATCHES, THE VEHICLE SHIFTS EXTREMELY HARD. THERE IS A LOUD WHINING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR WHILE ACCELERATING, THAT DIDN'T EXIST BEFORE. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALREADY HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED BECAUSE OF A SAFETY RECALL WHICH PERTAINS TO THIS EXACT PROBLEM. HONDA REFUSES TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE THEY STATE THE TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED. *TR
