| 2002 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I AM A NAVAL OFFICER, SINGLE PARENT, FAITHFUL TAX PAYER, AND A FOSTER MOM. I COME TO YOU TODAY WITH A COMPLAINT ABOUT MY HONDA ACCORD AUTOMOBILE (2002 EX V6 ENGINE) TO WHICH I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, AND THE SERVICE I RECEIVED FROM AMERICAN HONDA AND HOEHN HONDA OF CARLSBAD CA. UP UNTIL THIS POINT, I HAVE NOT HAD MANY ISSUES WITH MY HONDA. MY HONDA ACCORD 2002 WAS A WONDERFUL CAR, MY VERY FIRST NEW CAR, WHICH I WAS THE ORIGIONAL OWNER, FINANCES, AND SO ON. I DROVE THIS CAR OFF THE LOT WITHOUT EVEN 1 MILE ON THE DASH, AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME BY LAW THEY HAD TO PUT AT LEAST 1 MILE ON THE DASH, IN ORDER TO SELL THE CAR, AND THEY ALLOWED ME TO PUT THAT 1 MILE ON THE DASH. I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH THE INTENTIONS OF KEEPING WELL PAST 400K MILES, AND POSSIBLY PASSING IT ONTO MY SON AS HIS FIRST CAR, WHICH WOULD OF GIVEN ME THE SECURITY THAT I WAS PASSING HIM SOMETHING RELIABLE, AND SOMETHING I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE LITTLE TO NO MAJOR OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES FOR, AND CLEARLY AT THE TIME THAT WAS THE REPARTITION THAT HONDAS HADїNOW, I WOULD NOT GIVE THIS CAR TO ANYONE, KNOWING WHAT I KNOW. BEFORE ALL OF THIS OCCURRED, I WAS BASICALLY DRIVE MY HONDA TO AND FROM WORK, TO AND FROM MY KIDS SCHOOL, AND IN AND AROUND DAILY TRAVELS, WITH EXCEPTION TO OCCASIONAL FAMILY OUTINGS. I RECENTLY PAID THIS CAR OFF, AND SINCE THIS TIME, I HAVE COME OUT OF MY POCKET WITH ALL KINDS OF UNFORESEEN EXPENSES AND ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH MY 2002 HONDA ACCORDїS TRANSMISSION OCCURRED WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT 35 MPH AND THE CAR BUCKED IN ONGOING TRAFFIC AND COMPLETELY STALLED. I WAS AMAZED BECAUSE, MY CAR HAD NOT DID THIS BEFORE, AND IT WAS TERRIFYING CONSIDERING I HAD MY KIDS AND 2 OF THEIR FRIENDS IN THE CAR, AND IT DID A NUMBER ON OUR NECKS. NOW, MY HONDA ACCORD 2002 NOW BEGINS TO SLIP EVERY TIME I PULLED OFF AT THE LIGHT, STOP SIGN, AND SO ON. HONDAїS TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING OUT OF GEAR, JERKING, AND WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 45-60 MPH MY CAR WOULD START TO INCREASE SPEED. *TR |
