Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2003 V6 HONDA ACCORD COUPE (AUTOMATIC) THE TRANSMISSION VIOLENTLY JERKED THE ENTIRE VEHICLE FORWARD AND DOWNSHIFTED TO A LOWER GEAR. THIS OCCURRED DURING RUSH HOUR AND ALMOST CAUSED THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO REAR-END MY VEHICLE. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED ON MY FLASHERS AND MADE MY WAY TO A PARKING LOT. I LEFT THE VEHICLE THERE OVERNIGHT AND HAD IT TOWED TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION. THEY ADVISED ME THAT THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY TRANSMISSION AND EVERYTHING WAS WORKING PROPERLY DURING THEIR TESTS AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. *TR
