Civic EX

  • Manual transmission
  • 97,000 miles

I was driving home the other night and my car shuddered to a stop in the middle of an intersection in Brooklyn. I couldn't get the car to move and it felt like it kept slipping out of gear. I couldn't put it in neutral and then it got stuck in second gear. Luckily someone was with me to push the car to the side of the road while I held the clutch in. I had it towed to two different places and have gotten estimates of $1600-$2000 to take the transmission out and replace it. I thought maybe I had done something wrong until I read all these other complaints about everyone's Honda Civic transmissions crapping out on them. I do not want to pay this much money for a car that is not even worth that much more. I called Honda and they took note of my complaint but said they weren't going to do anything about it. I got a Honda because of their fuel efficiency and reliability but this is ridiculous.
