CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2000 Honda Accord suffers from widespread transmission failure, subframe rust, & problems with the airbag system (SRS). We recommend avoiding this model year like the plague.

The transmission begins slipping & eventually has to be replaced, typically soon after 90,000 miles & with a repair cost of over $2,000.

Subframe rust near the front passenger side wheel has become a problem recently, due to the poorly positioned A/C drain hose directly above that area. Repair cost to the subframe is over $2,000.

The SRS warning light likes to come on due to a defective seat belt sensor -- typically the driver's side. This sensor is covered under Honda's lifetime seat belt warranty, but some dealers charge a $100+ "diagnostic fee" or tell customers the entire SRS unit ($800) is bad.

After driving the vehicle for a while, the vehicle has a problem with restarting. Vehicle would hesitate for a while and you need to apply the accelerator pedal to the floor before starting. Vehicle has been to two separate dealers. The first dealer replaced the erg valve. And the problem recurred and the second dealer replaced the fuel pressure regulator kit and the problem still recurring.. check engine light continues to appear on dashboard. Intermittent stalling. Dealer removed and replaced egr valve/removed intake manifold and cleaned ports.
