| 2001 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I WAS DRIVING TO WORK DURING EVENING RUSH HOUR ON A BUSY INTERSTATE. I WENT TO ACCELERATE AND NOTHING HAPPENED. MY 2001 HONDA CIVIC EX SIMPLY REVVED HIGH IN THE RPMS AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER BEFORE MY CAR COMPLETELY LOST ALL MOMENTUM. THE DIAGNOSES FROM THE DEALER: TRANSMISSION FAILURE. MY PROBLEM WITH THIS IS THAT MY CAR HAS 91000 MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION SHOULDN'T FAIL THIS EARLY ON A CAR, AND THERE ARE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR MAKE AND MODEL. THERE WERE NO MAJOR WARNING SIGNS THAT I DETECTED; IT JUST HAPPENED ALL OF A SUDDEN AND PUT ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IF HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT ON THIS MODEL, THEY SHOULD, IF NOTHING ELSE, BE FORCED TO NOTIFY OWNERS OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS HAPPENING. SOMEONE WILL END UP GETTING HURT FROM THIS; I AM JUST THANKFUL IT WASN'T ME. *TR |
