Consumer Description

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS I HAVE EXPERIENCED MY CAR NOTIFYING ME OF A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND KICKING IT INTO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED BACK AT THE END OF NOVEMBER, USED AUTO START AND GOT INTO MY CAR SHORTLY AFTER. TURNED ON THE CAR AND PLACED INTO REVERSE. STILL STOPPED, PULLING UP MY GPS AND HEARD THE ALERT AND SAW ON MY DASHBOARD 'STOP DRIVING WHEN SAFE. TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. SEE MANUAL" IT LIGHTS UP THAT FOR A MOMENT THEN GOES AWAY. BUT IT SHIFTED MY CAR INTO NEUTRAL. DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT. FINISHED THE THE GPS. TOOK ANOTHER MOMENT AND PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE. IT DID IT AGAIN AND IT WAS BACK IN NEUTRAL WHEN I WAS JUST IN REVERSE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY. THE NEXT DAY CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. NOTHING WAS STORED IN THE DATABASE. AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. FAST FORWARD TO TODAY, AUTO START, GOT INTO CAR. PLACED IN DRIVE FOR A MOMENT AND BEFORE MOVING THE ALERT CAME UP AND CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL. IT DID IT THREE TIMES. TOOK A PHOTO OF THE ALERT WHICH IS EXACTLY AS QUOTED. I AM AT A LOSS WITH HONDA AND WHAT TO DO. I HAVE ALSO SEARCHED THE OWNERS MANUAL AND THERE'S NOTHING OF THIS QUOTED ISSUE.
