Civic Hybrid 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission

5 trips to Honda dealer in Aberdeen, WA. 1st Trip; due to transmission shudder on takeoff. Replaced fluids. Still shudder. 2nd Trip; Replaced seals in transmission, still shudder. 3rd Trip; Replace starter clutch in transmission, still shudder. 4th Trip; Checked and told would need new transmission. Honda has had problems with and would replace. Pick up car and would call when transmission in at dealer. 5th Trip; Dealer called transmission in. Replaced transmission and told us ready and to pick up. Drove maybe 12-15 miles in town. Decided to take trip to Astoria, maybe 225 mile round trip. Started trip and within 19 miles transmission started spurts of surging. Turned around and started back to Aberdeen and as we started up a grade, almost to the top, the transmission totally failed. Called dealer and told them to pick up car. Off duty policeman gave us a ride to the Dealer. Told dealer they could buy thr car back. Were rudely treated. Asked us if we wanted a RENTAL car, not a courtesy car, a Rental Car!!!!!
Will send Certified Mail letters to Dealer and Honda Motors that we are instituting a Lemon Law Claim.
