Civic EX-NAV
The car is the 2006 Civic Coupe with Navigation. After owning the car for only one year, I noticed I was having trouble stopping and that my car was whining all the time. I had my brakes checked even though I'd just had new ones put on. My very reliable independent shop told me that my transmission was not downshifting correctly, and that the whining was coming from my final drive (I'm not sure what that means).
I took the car to Honda, assuming it would be covered under my warranty. They kept the car for two days and decided to order a new transmission. The dealer claimed they'd called corporate headquarters about it and they said they "never had to replace this transmission in the entire US". They tried blaming my driving habits, but I don't know what I could possibly have done to this automatic car to cause the transmission to fail. They took the car for another two days in order to replace it.
Here it is a year later, and the problem is happening again. Exact same thing. I'll be adding another complaint about it after I call Honda.
