Accord LX 3.0L V6
- Automatic transmission
- 75,000 miles
I am second owner and bought this 99 honda accord LX V6 in 2004 with near 60K miles in great condition . I have perfect maintenance record although all my friends told me that I don't have to do this. I didn't realize the jerk between 1st and 2nd gear is a big problem which need to replace the transmission. The honda dealer checked and called "goodwill repair" . Then I was told I only got 15% cover and had to pay $2400 plus tax! I can not accept that I have to pay for Honda's mistake of their product! I will write a letter to BBB and will tell all my friends and all the people who I will discuss the car with about Honda 's service and honda's quality!
I was planning to buy honda's suv and had told my friend to buy honda's product last week. But now I will never take a look at this ugly service company . Since I work in university I definitly will affect a fair number of my students to consider of Honda.

Jerking when coming to a stop is the sign of a bad transmission. One of your only selections. The dealer did not know what the problem was and offered to flush the transmission to try and correct the problem. It did not work and only made the transmission work worse, plus set the engine light on. This appears to be a defect with the product.

Accord EX Coupe 4 cyl
- Automatic transmission
- 108,255 miles
I just bought a 1999 Honda Accord Coupe used from original owners. It was covered under warranty for 100K miles, and I bought it with 108K miles. They have taken immaculate care of the vehicle, supplied all of the paperwork for repairs and maintenance and it runs extremely well. It drives very smoothly, the interior is very comfortable, the trunk is very spacey for being a coupe and the overall feel of the vehicle is awesome! This is the first Honda I have ever owned as I am a Toyota Camry person.
Having said all of that, the only thing I do not like about the vehicle is the rough shifting of the transmission when coming to a stop. I like to stop very smoothly and glide into a stopping position. For some reason the transmission around 20 MPH shifts abruptly jerking the vehicle and the passengers forward in their seats. It is not an overly powerful jerk, but enough to annoy me. I don't know if the transmission is starting to go and these are the first signs, or if this is normal for this year and make of the Accord. Nonetheless, it is annoying and if it continues I will take it to a mechanic. Hope this helps you out and I would strongly recommend this vehicle despite the minor issue I am having.

Car still runs, but noticed jerking when coming to a stop. Thought it was broken motor mounts when I took the car in. Last Honda Accord I owned (1981) lasted 150,000 miles before transmission died.

This transmission is definitely not a winner. I have dealt with the problem for the past year...a very hard downshift from 2nd into 1st. Recently, the check engine light has indicated a "Torque Converter Circuit malfunction", which is a signal to me that the time has come to replace the transmission. I've never owned a car that developed such a substantial problem. In fact, the remedy costs more than the car is worth...unbelievable!
