Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY STREET THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. CAR IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN TO IDLE SPEEDS BARELY GIVING THE CARS BEHIND A CHANCE TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES AND SWERVE OUT OF THE WAY. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, A HONDA DEALERSHIP HAD LOOKED AT THE CAR FOR A RECALL REPAIR AND DID NOT MENTION ANYTHING AMISS WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK CAME THEY CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS BLACK LIKE THE TRANSMISSION HAD BEEN MALFUNCTIONING AND BURNING THE FLUID. IT COST ME 3800 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. *TR
