NHTSA Complaint #10489261 — 2000 HONDA CBR600

CAR JUMPS WHEN GAS PRESSED. IN THE PAST IT WAS ONLY OCCASIONAL BUT NOW IT IS MORE FREQUENT. LAST WEEK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS THE PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED BY THE HONDA DEALER AND ONLY DRIVEN ON WEEKENDS. . AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION ON HONDA ACCORDS IS A KNOWN DEFECT. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT OR WHY I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T PUT MANY MILES ON THIS CAR BUT SOON MY TEENAGER WILL BE READY TO DRIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO FIX THIS DEFECT. *TR
