"Honda is a good car - mine is different" - I would like to say this statement for my Honda Accord 2001 LX. So far I spent 10,000.00 US dollars for my accord only for mechanical problems such as ac leakage, suspension, brakes, coolant systems, transmission system failure, engine failure etc.
I don't have anything to say about Honda Accord; but I will not buy any Honda automobiles in the rest of my life. Even if Honda Motors want to give me a car free I will not go for it.
I did not find anything good with Honda Car.
Thanks Folks.

2001 honda accord - fully loaded. Got this car to last me 250k miles. It has gone 112k and the only cost so far has been the timing belt - not because it needed it, but because it was 112k miles. Last Friday I took it in because the TCS light came on. Honda dealer suggested a new tranny. I was over the miles on the extended guarantee, but not the length of time. Honda is replacing it, no questions. I am paying for labor, but tell me an American auto maker who would do that. So the tranny is going after 112k. My Saturn needed a new tranny at 40k and I was going to have to pay $1k just to find out the problem. THE 2001Accord has a bigger engine then BMW's my same year, and as the mechanic says "this engine is bullet proof, only problem is that the tranny can not keep up with it". I'll keep it and save up over the next 100k miles and get a new tranny at 200k miles.

We have two 2001 Honda Accords in excellent condition. We have all maintenance done on time and I just my Honda and had its 60K check which cost me $960.00 and my wife took her Honda in for a 60K service and she paid $550. One week later my car started having problems starting and I took it in and the Lis DunKley told me that our Honda had a recall on our transmission. This a $5,000. job and Lisa was the one who informed us of the recall. Now, we lived in Panam City for four years and we have been bring our card th Honda and no one mention the recall expect for Lisa, When I took both cars in it was estimated to be $10,000. worth of work and it took one honest Service Adviser to tell us. We asked the other Service Adviser why he didn't mention the recall he stated it cost to much. Also, get this - right in front of us he told Lisa to keep one eye open and he knows where she lives. He was mad that she informed us of the recall. Thank God there are a few honest people.

I'm a owner of 2001, Honda Accord V6 coupe and I took my car into the Honda Dealership in Aug 05 to have the transmission replace due to that volunteer recall. The transmission was replaced at no cost to me. But, in December 2007 over the holidays I started experiencing some transmission problem again, but MAJOR ones. When I shifted my car in gear my car jerked in a "afterwards motion" and my "engine light came on" - I said not again. So, I took it to the dealership and explained to them that the transmission was acting up! - the one they put in two years ago. The dealership didn't believe my thoughts so, they did a free diagnostic test and I got a call the next day and they said "yes!" it's your transmission. They said that they will work with me so, they (the dealership) would pay for the part and I pay for the labor $1,095. I couldn't believe it - I told them that they put the transmission in two years ago and now I have to pay $1,095 to get it fix- it was unacceptable buddy. So, I called America of Honda to explain to them the problem. America of Honda was great!!! they took my call, heard my compliant, and took action. Within 1hour I got a call from American of Honda, they called the dealership to investigate, it seems that I was misquoted it would only cost me $752- according to America of Honda. To concluded, I end up paying $600 for a rebuild transmission. This is second Honda and I think my last......

ok so ill admit i looove this car. looks wise. the transmission sucked. when ill be stopped at a light, press gas and it buckles down the street and i wana flip out. i mean its a real nice car and thats the ONLY problem ive had. i bought it at a used car dealer and those cheap bastards said it was fine. i brought it to kelly honda and they ran my vin# and said the transmission was under warranty untl 90,000 miles.. i have 88. i got very lucky and now my car runs beautifully. so my advice if you have the same problem call any honda dealership and im pretty sure they'll hook you up!!

I just paid off this vehicle after I had leased it for a little over five years. Just recently my vehicle has started to jerk and it has gotten progressively worse. When I shift my car into gear after it has been parked for a while, it jerks forward very violently and when I apply my breaks it also jerks backward. If I press the gas pedal after a series of jerks, my car will make a very low humming sound and will stall. When the car finally moves, it jerks forward very violently and makes the most hideous screeching noise. Needless to say I am very disappointed with my Honda Accord. It is only five years old and has less than 80,000 miles on it, and is experiencing serious & dangerous problems. If anyone is interested in buying a used 2001 Honda Accord LX, please consider other options. It's just not worth it.

When the car has been park for awhile and I start it up and put the car in gear from park, the car jerks when I go from park to drive.
