Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS ARE EXTREMELY ROUGH, ESPECIALLY FROM 45 MPH. WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM THIS SPEED AND RE-ACCELERATING FROM 25 MPH (AS IN SLOWING FOR AN INTERSECTION OR TRAFFIC), THE DOWNSHIFTING AND UPSHIFTING ARE BOTH ROUGH - TO THE POINT OF WONDERING WHETHER THE TRANSMISSION WILL FALL OUT, OR NOT. THIS CONDITION HAS EXISTED FROM THE DAY I PURCHASED THE CAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN FEBRUARY 2010 FOR A HONDA-REQUESTED TRANSMISSION PROGRAMMING UPDATE. THAT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. *TR
