- 23,000 miles
I bought this car new, with 15 miles. The day I got it home, drove around local roads, I noticed that the transmission slips when shifting from 1st to second, and less noticeable from 2nd to 3rd. I test drove the car with the honda tech, and he said that it is a known problem, and Honda had been changing out the "shift valves" in the transmission, but that it did not fix the problem! I just bought this car a week ago, and they say they have no fix!
PLEASE be careful if you intend to purchase a new 2007 accord, with a 4 cylinder (don't know if the v6 has similar problems). You might want to wait until next model year, because this looks like its going to be a massive recall issue. You can contact me at redd_green@hotmail.com with/for related information.

Accord LTD V6
Let me start by saying that this is the SECOND Honda transmission problem that I have had...the first involved my 2000 Honda Accord LX V6 that had a transmission that kept slipping when I would back up...even after I took it to the dealer, it was not diagnosed...UNTIL the transmission blew and was undriveable. So I turned it in and bought a new 2007 Honda LTD V6 Accord. Now we are in 2009 and this car felt like it would stall when I was accelerating from a stop - not all the time, but enough to cause concern. First time I brought it to the dealer, Cathedral City Honda, they told me it was the ac and replaced the filter. Drove away and it immediately did it again. Took it back a month or so later and they now found that the "jut" (the thing it does at the stop sign) is transmission related and they need to replace my whole transmission. I am dumbfounded that a car that is only 2 years old ONLY have 25,000 miles on it and has been regularly maintained needs a new transmission. People keep telling me cars never run the same with a new tranny, and I am ticked as I am still paying on the car. Supposedly the replacement is covered under my warranty - but what happens when this happens again...I mean, they are replacing it with a Honda transmission which obviously is crap.
