NHTSA Complaint #10408841 — 2001 HONDA CIVIC

I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT ON BEHALF OF HONDA CIVIC DRIVERS EVERYWHERE. IT IS VERY CLEAR FROM DOING RESEARCH THAT THERE IS AN INHERENT PROBLEM WITH THE HONDA CIVIC 2001-2003 TRANSMISSION. FROM SPEAKING TO PROFESSIONALS WHO HAVE BEEN REBUILDING HONDA TRANSMISSIONS FOR YEARS, IT IS A PROBLEM WITH MATERIALS FLAKING OFF THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND THE CLUTCH CLOGGING THINGS UP. I DRIVE AT 2001 HONDA CIVIC AND THE P0740 ERROR CODE HAS COME UP, BUT THE CAR IS STILL RUNNING FINE, BUT UNTIL I GET THE TRANSMISSION SUPPOSEDLY REPAIRED I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PASS AIRCARE EVEN THOUGH MY EMISSIONS ARE PERFECTLY ABOVE AVERAGE. INCIDENTS VARY FROM TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGH, STALLS, TO ACCIDENTS. IF YOU JUST GOOGLE SEARCH 2001-2003 HONDA CIVIC TRANSMISSION YOU CAN SEE FOR YOURSELF. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT WEAR AND TEAR OVER-TIME DOES HAPPEN, BUT IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE AND FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD BEAR SOME OF THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR BUILDING A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. *TR
