Accord

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles

I was driving along at approximately 60 mph when my car suddenly stopped. It wasn't gradual... I was going 60 and then I wasn't moving. Honda was prepared to return the vehicle after they could not reproduce the problem for two weeks. The day before the scheduled return, a technician experienced the same difficulty. The Honda dealership offered us Bluebook excellent private party value as trade-in towards a new vehicle due to the dangerous nature of the failure. Apparently transmission computer prone to failure and quite costly to replace.

problem #1

Accord EX 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 98,000 miles

I called Honda and they said that I didn't qualify for any type of assistance. I had to pay over 800 dollars to replace the transmission computer and my car is only a 2003; just 5 years old. I'm very dissatisfied as to the quality of my vehicle. I purchased a Honda due to their reputation of quality, long lasting cars but have been disappointed.
