| 2004 | POWER TRAIN | FIRST, I CALLED APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AGO AND FILED A COMPLAINT OVER THE TELEPHONE. THE MAN I TALKED TO SAID HE WOULD FOLLOW UP WITH AN EMAIL TO ME, WHICH HE NEVER DID. HE ALSO SAID I WOULD RECEIVE SOMETHING BY MAIL, WHICH I NEVER DID. MY NAME IS [XXX] I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT COMPLAINT? IN SHORT: MY 2004 HONDA ACCORD'S TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 94K. HONDA SAID MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHO DID HONDA MAKE A DEAL WITH? I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE THE TRANS REBUILT. NOW GOING HIGH SPEEDS FOR LONG DISTANCES THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS UP, THE D LIGHT BLINKS, THE TRIANGLE COMES ON, THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. ONCE THE CAR COOLS DOWN MOST LIGHTS GO OFF AND AFTER 3 CYCLES, THE ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF. AUTO ZONE CAME UP WITH SOME P CODE THAT IT WAS A SENSOR. THE TRANS GUY REPLACED IT., I AM STILL GETTING DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND THIS TIME I LOST THE SPEEDOMETER. SOMEONE SAID THE TRANS IS OVERHEATING. BUT THEN WHY THE P CODE THAT IT IS A SENSOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM? IF HONDA IS HAVING SUCH A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS WHY ISN'T THE HIGHWAY SAFETY COMMISSION GETTING INVOLVED? WHY DOESN'T EVERYONE WRITE TO THEM AND MAKE A COMPLAINT? WHY AREN'T YOU GETTING INVOLVED WITH THIS ISSUE? HONDA PUT A BAD PRODUCT IN THEIR CARS AND THE CONSUMERS ARE SUFFERING. IN 1970S CHEVY PUT A SMALL TRANS IN A MID SIZE CAR WITH PLASTIC PARTS. AFTER 3 TRANSMISSIONS AND A TRIP TO COURT THE JUDGE ORDERED THEY PUT A BIGGER TRANS IN MY CAR. IS THIS THE SAME THING? THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH HONDA AND THEIR TRANSMISSIONS AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE CONSUMERS ARE GETTING THE RAW DEAL ON THIS? THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM? HOW CAN THAT BE WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS!
