problem #2

Accord EX 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,458 miles

I was diving on the freeway yesterday when I looked down to see my RPM's in the 6000 range so I let off the gas and checked to see that I was in drive or what else might be causing the problem. After a quick check everything looked normal so I accelerated, this time my rpm's went up but not as high and it found the gear, but I couldn't pick up enough speed to pass anyone. Just enough to maintain my speed... Later last night I again was on the freeway having the same problem and then my check engine light comes on and if I even touch the gas it almost red lines. But this time it wouldn't find a gear at all so I had to pull over and wait for my dad to come pull my car home. I will be taking my car in today. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

Accord EXL V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 37,000 miles

purchased vehicle new in 01/04, transmission went bad on 10/05 with 37,000. Honda refused to pay for total cost of repairs. (No extended warranty). I had to pay for "parts about $930. Honda "paid" for labor $1,070. the said. Total cost: $2000. I wrote several letters to Honda, they refused to commit. Now I found out that there is a class action suit because customers were cut short due to bad speedometer cables in their vehicles and Honda have extended the warranty to those vehicles by 5 %. Mine falls under the 5 % which translated into 38,800 miles instead of 36,000. I knew that a brand new Honda transmission could not break at 37,000. This is my 6th. Honda and my last one!
