NHTSA Complaint #10455228 — 2000 HONDA ACCORD

TRANSMISSION WAS STARTING TO JERK FORWARD AND BALKING WHEN STARTING FROM A START. TRANSMISSION STARTED TO OVER HEAT. MY SON SAID THAT THE CAR SEAMED TO JUST GIVE OUT ON HIGHWAY AND SCARED HIM AS IT CAUSED A STRANGE FEELING OF SOMETHING TERRIBLE WRONG. NOW WHEN TRANSMISSION IS PUT INTO REVERSE A VERY STARTLING NOISE LIKE A LOUD BANG IS HAPPENING. NOW I AM AFRAID TO LET MY SON BECAUSE OF SAFETY REASONS USE IT. I AM ON A FIXED INCOME AND I ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF THIS CAR, BUT THIS IS JUST GOING TO BREAK ME TO TRY TO GET FIXED. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS SINCE I STARTED TO INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM THAT I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT HONDA AND THE NHTSA HAS NOT REMEDIED THIS DANGEROUS AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA ON RUSTING FRAME RAILS THAT ALMOST KILLED ME AND MY DAUGHTER. I HAD TO TRY TO SELL MY TACOMA TRUCK AT MORE THAN HALF ITS RESALE VALUE, BECAUSE TOYOTA JUST LIKE HONDA JUST WONT ADMIT OR FIX THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. BY THE TIME THE NHTSA DID GET TOYOTA TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE UNSAFE FRAME RUST MOST OF US OWNERS HAD ALREADY HAD TO TRY TO GET WHAT EVER MONEY WE COULD TRY TO GET. IT WAS HORRIBLE TO LOSE ALL THAT MONEY AND TRY TO GET ANOTHER VEHICLE. NOW HONDA IS PLAYING WITH NHTSA AND IT IS STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN FOR A LOT OF US HONDA OWNERS.WHAT MORE CAN US OWNERS DO TO GET OUR FAIR SHARE. I KNOW I FILED A COMPLAINT AGAINST TOYOTA AND NOW HONDA. I HOPE NHSTA DOES SOMETHING FAST BECAUSE AS OF NOW I HAVE NO CAR TO USE. LETS RIGHT THIS NOW. I KNOW THAT A LOT OF HARD WORKING PEOPLE DESERVE BETTER THAN WHAT HONDA IS EVEN THINKING OF DOING OR NOT DOING TO RIGHT THIS PROBLEM. *TR
