| 2003 | POWER TRAIN | MY 2003 HONDA ACCORD V6 ORIGINAL OWNER, TRANSMISSION IS SWITCHING GEARS INTO NEUTRAL WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES. IF I PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON, IT GOES BACK INTO THE CORRECT GEAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE I AM ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS WARMED UP (DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN 15 OR 20 MINUTES). THERE IS ALSO A RANDOM VIBRATION THAT SEEMS TO COME FROM THE TRANSMISSION FOR SOME TIME NOW. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY HAVE QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $4600 TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION, BUT CLAIM THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS CAR. THE 2003 HONDA ACCORD HAS 4 RECALLS ON IT ALREADY. THIS IS VERY DISAPPOINTING TO HAVE PURCHASED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS GOING TO BE A QUALITY, TOP OF THE LINE HONDA, ONLY TO HAVE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS. *TR |
