CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005 Honda Accord suffers from transmission failure. It's not a huge widesperad problem like in prior years, but definitely still something to consider.
The transmission begins slipping & eventually has to be replaced, typically soon after 90,000 miles & with a repair cost of over $2,000.
Transmission failure problems have been a huge problem for the Accord & several other Honda models all through the early 2000s model years. Honda eventually extended the transmission warranty to 93 months/109k miles for the 2000-2001 Accords as a class action lawsuit settlement, but owners of other Accord model years with transmission problems are out of luck.

I have owned Hondas since 1984 and have owned some of them up to the car being 20 years old and not ONE of them has ever had an issue with the original paint on the car. None of them were ever in a garage but Honda refused to admit the need for a recall and refuses to take responsibility. If they do not remedy the situation before I buy a new car, I can assure you it will not be a Honda.
