Consumer Description

MY WARRANTY REPLACED THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION IN MY CAR BECAUSE IT FAILED TO WORK AT 74.378 MILES. AMERICAN HONDA REPLACED THAT FREE OF CHARGE AND NOW THE NEW ONE WITH LESS THEN 40,000 MILES HAS FAILED. IT WAS CONFIRMED BY THE HONDA DEALER THAT THIS 2ND TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WHINES AND THE DIFFERENTIAL IS SLIPPING CAUSING PREMATURE WEAR ON THE AXLES. THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THIS ONE FREE OF CHARGE, THEY WANT TO CHARGE $4000 FOR REPAIRS. THE AXLES WERE WEARING IN OCT 2009 AND WERE REPLACED AT LEAST FOUR TIMES BEFORE IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION THAT WAS THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM. *TR
